Bab 8: Chapter 7: Colosseum
1st floor, Atlantis City, Colosseum.
The Colosseum is a large and tall building located in the middle of Atlantis City. The Colosseum is a place where adventurers fight against each other to prove who is more than the other. In the courtyard of the Colosseum, there is a black wall that is wide and also high which is firmly stuck there around the black wall, there is an iron fence that protects the black wall.
The black wall is a leaderboard where every adventurer who ranks in the top 10 in the Colosseum, their name will be recorded on the black wall. Anyone whose name is recorded on this black wall will be able to be seen by everyone from the 1st to the 200th floor in this dungeon because each Colosseum is connected to the other.
Currently, since there are no adventurers who have fought in the Colosseum, no name of any adventurer has been recorded here.
"Ars, what is that?" Shakky asked with interest, pointing towards the electronic screen attached to the Colosseum.
"It was a live broadcast screen," Ars said calmly, "That screen has the function of broadcasting the fight that takes place inside the Colosseum. Everyone can choose whether they want to watch the battle live or through the live broadcast screen. If you want to watch the battle live, the thrill of the battle will immediately be felt by the adventurer such as the impact of the attack and others. However, there is no need to worry. Because they can only feel the impact but will not be directly affected. Well, to be able to watch live, the repeaters have to pay a fee to enter depending on the battle that is being carried out"
"It depends?" Rayleigh asked with interest.
"The price for admission to the live broadcast depends on the battle that is being fought such as who is fighting or what kind of fight is going on," Ars said, "For example, there are two adventurers where these two adventurers are the ones who hold the ranks in the Colosseum. Of course, the price for the ticket to watch the two live battle live will be more expensive compared to the ticket price of watching two adventurers fight but not have a ranking or in other words a rookie"
Rayleigh and Shakky nodded.
"In addition, the type of battle also determines the price. For example, battles fought between groups or guilds" Ars said, "The price of watching this battle itself is quite expensive because what is seen is a battle between groups where it is a big war. It may be that the price to watch this battle can reach a lift of 10 silver coins and even exceed this price. It all depends on which guild is fighting with. If the fighting guild is a top guild or in other words holds a ranking. The price for watching can even reach one gold coin"
"That is a natural thing," Shakky said calmly, "In the real world it is also very rare to be able to watch such a big battle, especially for the battle fought between the two people of the Emperor of the Ocean, mainly for full-scale battles. Nowadays there is usually only friction between the two emperors of the ocean and even then it is quite large compared to the wars carried out by pirates usually on a full scale."
Rayleigh nodded, "By the way, what is the battle between the guilds going to be fought inside the Colosseum? Can this place accommodate that kind of battle?"
"Don't worry about getting to know that" Ars said with a small smile, "The building you guys are currently looking at is just a display"
"Display?" Shakky and Rayleigh asked in confusion.
"This place itself is only prepared for display and a place to register before the battle. When fighting later, the adventurers will be immediately moved to a place where they are free to fight there, and even destroying the place is also no problem. The audience who have paid to watch the live broadcast will also come to the venue later. They will later be prepared in a special place where through that place, they can watch the battle between the two fighters at close range without disturbing the two fighters fighting."
"Melee? Is it not going to bother you?" Rayleigh asked.
"Of course" Ars nodded, "The place itself is a place that adventurers who are fighting can't see even at the moment their attack is launched on the place. Their attack will only pass through that place alone and have no influence. Hmm... Let's just say that the place is almost like being there but it's not there. Ugh… Well, it is quite difficult to explain the mechanism. But that's how it works."
"Well, does it mean that the battle arena between the fights fought one-on-one and the battles between the guilds will be different or the locations be the same?" Shakky asked back.
"Different," Ars said, "The place of battle will be adjusted according to how much strength the fighters and also the guild is. The greater the strength of the fighters and also the guild. Then the place to be used in that battle will also become bigger and bigger. This is also to provide comfort for the fighters to release all their strength without fear of disturbing their friends who are fighting because the battle area is small."
"Is there any punishment if an adventurer is killed in a battle fought inside the Colosseum?" Ask Rayleigh
"Punishment?" Ars asked, holding up his forehead, "Punishment... Well, there are penalties. It was a trace of his battle"
"The traces of the battle?" Rayleigh and Shakky asked.
"Every adventurer will be recorded in the footsteps of his battle. In battle, there must be such a thing as winning, losing, and also drawing. Every adventurer who will start fighting in the Colosseum later traces the battles they have fought will also be recorded. Every time they win, the traces of that battle will be recorded. Every time they lose, the traces of that battle will be recorded. And, every time they get a draw, traces of that battle will be recorded. The more victories an adventurer gets, the later the battle trail owned by the adventurer will be very good and it will be easy to bring him to the top position of the rankings. In addition, this trace of battle can also increase one's self-esteem, especially for someone who has never lost or lost a little when fighting in the Colosseum compared to someone who always loses in the Colosseum battle."
"I see" Rayleigh nodded, "It's a very interesting mech. Will others be able to see the traces of someone's battle?"
"Sure" Ars nodded, "Adventurers can see the traces of someone's battle by directly coming to the Colosseum. Later there is a room where in the room there is some kind of tool that can help check the traces of someone's battle and even someone can watch the battles fought by that person in the past by paying a predetermined amount."
"Can such a thing be done? Isn't it the same that someone can learn how to fight a person easily before that person can fight with him?"
"Yes. However, everyone will certainly always develop every day. They will certainly not continue to persevere with themselves at this time, especially for those who like to fight or who want to be stronger" Ars said calmly.
"Ars, how can someone fight with someone inside this Colosseum?" Rayleigh asked with interest.
"Everyone who later wants to fight inside the Colosseum will later register in advance by paying some money. Then after paying some of the money, they will be opened a battle platform for the colosseum officers. The platform has a function that introduces your identity and also shows the traces of the battles you have. As long as there is an adventurer who intends to fight against you, the adventurer only needs to memorize the name you have and then tell it to the colosseum administration officer. Later, the adventurer will get a notification of the proposed challenge. As long as the adventurer accepts it, later the Colosseum will arrange the time of the battle and also the promotion of the battle so that it can attract people to watch. While the challenged adventurer refused it. The adventurer will automatically lose and his defeat will also be directly recorded on the battle traces owned by him"
"Automatic defeat?" Rayleigh muttered, "That's something embarrassing"
"Yes," Shakky nodded, "Surely many people would not have done such a thing especially if the traces of that battle were to be recorded. A lot of people will know the traces once left by him"
"By the way, Ars. What if in one case the adventurer is not in the dungeon?" Rayleigh asked.
"If the adventurer is not in the dungeon. The Colosseum officer will later notify the challenger and ask him to make a choice. Want to choose another opponent or want to wait until the challenged one returns to the dungeon? As long as the adventurer returns to the dungeon, he will immediately be promised the notice by the Colosseum officer. Meanwhile, if the challenger wants to choose another opponent. The match will be canceled immediately while traces of the battle will not be recorded because there has never been any contact or battle that took place."
"This place will be a paradise for anyone who likes to fight with others especially wanting popularity," Rayleigh said calmly.
"Well, I think this place is the most suitable and may even be favored by Kaidou," Ars said calmly.
"Kaidou?" Shakky raised her forehead.
"Well, if he is. I don't need to think about it either" Rayleigh nodded, "That guy likes to fight with others. He will be very happy with this place and will always accept the challenge of anyone who wants to fight with him"
"What about you, Ray-san?" Shakky asked with interest, "This place is also suitable for you"
"Hahaha..." Rayleigh laughed excitedly, "Compared to this place. I'm more interested in my name is recorded in the Hall of Fame" Rayleigh's gaze became excited, "Especially when the name is recorded there, the name will never be replaced. As long as my name is there, surely I will always be remembered at any time."
"You say this as you've already made the belief that you want to sign up to be adventurous, Rayleigh" Ars said with a small smile.
"Of course" Rayleigh nodded, "This place is very spacious and there are also many interesting things found in this place. The outside world at this time is already boring to me. How could it be possible that I would just waste such an interesting place?"
Rayleigh paused then asked, "Well, Ars. I'm quite curious about what you've said to me about an item that caught my eye. Can you tell me what that stuff is?"
Shakky also immediately focused her attention on Ars.
"Resurrection crystal," Ars said calmly.
"Resurrection crystal?" Rayleigh and Shakky muttered softly.
"Resurrection crystal is a myth-level item contained in this dungeon and to get this item is very difficult to even this item is classified as an item with one of the most difficult levels to get it," Ars said, "This item itself is different from other myth-level items that can only be obtained on the top floor of the dungeon. This item itself can be found all over the dungeon floor by killing monsters in the dungeon. The average monster has a rate to drop this item after killing them as much as 0.0001% while a floor boss-level monster still has a high chance of being able to get this item. Killing bosses from the 1st to 50th floors has a 5% chance of getting this item. Killing bosses on the 51st to 100th floors has a 10% chance of getting this item. Killing bosses on the 101st to 150th floors has a 15% chance of getting this item. While killing the bosses of the 151st to 200th floors has a 20% chance of getting the item"
Ars paused and stared at Shakky and Rayleigh, "This item has a function that reverses the rules of the outside world, that is... This item can resurrect someone who has died"
"What?!" Rayleigh and Shakky shouted very loudly at the time knowing the usefulness of the item.
"This is... Are you serious?" Rayleigh asked with the look in his eyes becoming extremely sharp at once full of excitement.
"I'm serious" Ars nodded, "The item is really in the dungeon and you guys have a chance to get it. The opportunity to get that item can be obtained in all the monsters in this dungeon. Although the level of chance to get it is different for each monster. The stronger the monster is at once a step. The chances of getting this item are also getting higher and higher. If you hope to get it in the monsters that are on this floor, I tell you, it's really difficult. Because to get it is only at the 0.0001% mark. As for the monster du upstairs, it is mainly above the 100th floor. The chances of getting it are getting higher and higher"
Rayleigh and Shakky were silent at this.
"If you want to get it quickly without the need to go upstairs. You can hope to be the floor boss. However, if you hope for the boss of the floor. You have to have your team to be able to kill the floor boss" Ars said calmly, "Don't be offended, Rayleigh. I know you are strong, but by the time you become an adventurer later, your strength will return to normal people. Also, although later you can increase your witness and also through your experience you will be superior to other adventurers. Never underestimate the floor boss. Besides they have stronger fighting power even 10 times stronger compared to adventurers in their level. He also has the experience, abilities, and also other things that make him difficult to beat just by himself"
"It's okay. I know" Rayleigh sighed, "I think, I can try to ask him for help."
"Well, let's continue our adventure. We will go to the Alchemist Wiz Shop and then finish these walks"
Rayleigh and Shakky nodded and began to follow Ars from behind as the two had a conversation discussing all sorts of things, especially regarding Rayleigh's plans to become an adventurer.
