Chapter 23: Arena

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Nan guessed that Dali and Strongest Gangster probably wanted to use him to grind arena points.

Too naive!

Do I look weak?

“Come, it’s time to show your true skills.”

Zhou Nan chuckled. He accepted Dali Let Me Out of a Miracle and Strongest Gangster’s friend requests and waited for them to invite him to the arena.

The arena was also a dungeon, and one could find the entry option in the mission hall’s dungeon quest window.

According to Zhou Nan’s knowledge, there were a total of five arena dungeons, which were the King Arena, Diamond Arena, Golden Arena, Silver Arena, and Bronze Arena.

The Bronze Arena was the lowest level arena, and it was basically a beginner concentration camp with no entry restrictions. Players could enter after completing the beginner trial, and there were only two arenas, they were called Duel Arena and Square Temple.

The Duel Arena was purely a player-versus-player map, while the Square Temple was a battle map with NPC forces.

When players fought in the arena, the victory rate would be calculated. If they won, they would receive arena points.

Of course, those who lost would lose arena points. Arena points were allowed to be negative, and players’ initial arena points were all zero.

Arena points could be used to exchange for arena-exclusive cards. If a player reached a certain value, they could still complete the task and obtain corresponding rewards.

On the other hand, the Silver Arena required the player’s level to reach or exceed level 10, and the 100 arena points before they could enter. The arena map within it had a new Chaotic Canyon, as well as an independent challenge quest.

The Golden Arena required players to be at level 20 and have 1,000 arena points before they could enter. As for the facilities, Zhou Nan did not know, he estimated that there should not be many players who could enter the Golden Arena.

As for the Diamond Arena and the King Arena, the entry requirements were higher. They would definitely be equipped with more arena maps, and they would definitely gain more benefits from them.

Players were not allowed to enter the advanced arena without obtaining the corresponding qualifications. Those who had the qualifications to enter the advanced arena could still choose to enter the low-level arena. However, in a battle, if they won, they would gain nothing. If they lost, they would lose a large number of arena points.

If a player’s arena points dropped, they would also lose the qualifications to enter the advanced arena.

There was also a spectator and betting system in the arena. There were many different ways to play the game. Many players were passionate about the arena games, and the more famous players were basically obtained through the arena.

Zhou Nan did not play much in the arena in the past, but now he felt that he could show off his skills in it.

Just as he returned to the mission hall, before he could check the treasure chest, he received a system notification.

[Ding, your friend Dali Let Me Out of a Miracle invited you to enter Bronze Arena dungeon room 365. Do you agree?]

“Are you in such a hurry?” Zhou Nan chose to agree.

Then, the room window of the arena popped up in front of him.

[Bronze Arena]

[Room number: 365]

[Choose map: Duel Arena]

[Battle settings: 2 VS 2]

…

Not long after, Valkyrie Lin Yun entered the room. He was player 4, and was by default in Team 2. Just like Zhou Nan, his battle record was zero wins and zero losses.

At this moment, Dali said, “You guys should also bet some gold coins as a wager.”

Valkyrie Lin Yun said, “I think you guys are cheating! Why are you still betting on gold coins!”

Strongest Gangster said, “It’s just entertainment. Is 100 gold coins too much? Why don’t you split? Each of you can just bet 50 gold coins. Don’t tell me you don’t even have 50 gold coins!”

Valkyrie Lin Yun said, “That’s fine, but I’ll bet… 200 gold coins!”

When Zhou Nan saw valkyrie Lin Yun bet gold coins, and he was slightly stunned. This person was so reckless.

What did he mean by betting 200 gold coins?

If he bet less, he would earn less.

The betting method was included in every arena map. Players could only bet on themselves or their own teams, and spectating players could also bet. Both sides could bet, and when the competition ended, the winner of the bet would receive a proportionate amount of benefits.

For example, at this moment, Dali and the others had bet a total of 100 gold coins. If Zhou Nan and the others won, the 100 gold coins would be won by them, then, they could receive benefits according to the ratio of the amount of gold coins they bet to the total amount of gold coins that the other party had bet!

Zhou Nan also did not say anything. He silently bet 200 gold coins on himself.

“Ya!”

“You two are awesome!”

Dali and Strongest Gangster could not help but be pleasantly surprised at this moment. They secretly sent out a call to their friends.

“Are these two idiots? Each of them bet 200 gold coins. They’re giving us free money? After a match, each of us will earn 200 gold coins! It’s easy money. Why haven’t we encountered such top-tier players before?”

“It can’t be a trick, right?”

“What kind of trick can there be? Looking at the battle records of these two salted fish, they’ve never fought in the arena before. Can they still turn the tables?”

“Then let’s start?”

“Hurry up and start. Don’t wait for them to react!”

These two people thought for a while, but in the end, they did not say anything and just started the game.

The owner of the room was Dali. She had the authority to start the game and change the room settings.

Next, Zhou Nan’s eyes turned black, then bright again, and he was teleported to the arena.

The arena was empty. It could be said that there was no obstacle at all.

[Ding, you have arrived at the arena. You have 30 seconds to prepare for battle!]

[Ding, the current battle map is in Unlimited Firepower mode. Card use does not consume magic, and they have no cooldown!]

[Ding, kill the opponent players. The battle will be decided When you and your teammates are all dead…]

“The battle will not end until you die!” At this moment, Valkyrie Lin Yun spoke up.

Zhou nan glanced at him and said, “Why are you betting so many gold coins? Aren’t you afraid of losing?”

Valkyrie Lin Yun said, “How can I lose? Those two mallets don’t have good eyesight, but I do. You did the dungeon quest so quickly, how can you be a newbie? Those two mallets wanted to cheat us of our gold coins, but this time, they’re going to run into an iron wall.”

“Aren’t you afraid that they’re playing a different game?”

“Hehe, I have more tricks than them!”

“You sly bird, are you going to play tricks again?”

“You too, right?”

“It’s not good to bully newbies.”

“We’re the newbies!”
