Henry and Flynn walked through the secret door. It was a passage that led straight down. While they were still in the passage, Henry and Flynn could already hear the faint sounds of shouting and cheering.
After walking for about 30 seconds, the two of them came to a steel shutter door.
When Henry and Flynn approached it, the shutter door was opened from the inside, and a roar of shouting overwhelmed over them.
"Kill him! Finish him!"
"Come on! Finish him! I bet two million on him!"
"Die, let him die!"
Countless shouts rang across the room. A middle-aged man in his fifties pulled up the shutter door. He had a thick beard and messy hair. A cigarette dangled at his lips as he kept puffing smoke.
"Hurry up, don't dawdle." The middle- aged man urged them both impatiently.
Henry and Flynn quickened their pace.
"Place your bets on the left, the rules are all written there. Although all who gather here are all friends, don't you blame us for the brutality if you break the rules." The middle-aged man warned them as soon as they went through the shutters, then lowered the shutters again.
The scene inside was like an underground fighting ring. A circular iron cage with a radius of ten meters stood in the very centre, an excited audience surrounded it.
The inner walls of the iron cage were lined with sharp thorns, which meant that once one entered the cage, only one man could remain standing. It would be a fight to the death.
When Henry looked towards the iron cage, a seemingly young contender was nailed to the edge of the iron cage, and thorn pierced through his chest.
The cheers and curses sounded almost at the same time.
The winner of the fight raised his arm victoriously.
Henry observed the area for a while. There were more than a thousand people in the audience of the underground fighting ring, everyone was very visibly excited.
Not too far from Henry, a man and a woman were sitting behind a large table, happily enjoying a fruit platter. It was obvious that they were responsible for the duels there.
Flynn asked curiously, "Brother, how did you find this place?"
"The more arrogant a person, the more afraid of death he is." Henry shrugged his shoulders. "Tucker spit out everything he knew before I could even begin to twist his neck."
"Where is he now then?" Flynn asked subconsciously.
Henry rolled his eyes at Flynn and replied casually, "No idea. He might have just gone with the wind."
Flynn could not help but shudder. The man in front of him always seemed to be smiling, as if he did not have a care in the world, but he never showed mercy when he fought.
The door of the iron cage opened and the winner walked out amidst the cheers. The loser who had been nailed to the edge of the cage was dragged aside with a look of disgust.
A man who seemed to be the host stepped into the iron cage.
"I think the appetisers have already been served. Next, it's time to start the main show. Let us welcome our undefeated champion, Sanditon!"
The host raised his hand and roared passionately. A two-meter-tall chiselled giant appeared in plain sight. It was a blackskinned man who was bulging with explosive muscles from head to toe. His gaze burned fiercely like a fearsome beast.
"Sanditon!"
"Sanditon!"
