Chapter 103 Dark Arena

Looking at Long Yi's departure, there is an indescribable feeling in Long Xiaoqi's heart at this time. Is it lonely, empty, or timid?

"Long, from today on, I will be responsible for everything for you until the end of the competition." Mana slowly came over, speaking fluent Chinese with a professional smile on her face.

"Ye" Long Xiaoqi looked around the structure of the room again. The original white wall has become a little yellow and black at this time. Several dilapidated cabinets are all furniture. A color TV that has been eliminated for many years has been blurred, but the sound is still very clear. Opposite the TV is a large bed with a lot of things. If you guess correctly, it should be the place where the man lives.

"So what are we going to do now?" Long Xiaoqi was like an outsider, and she was even embarrassed that she didn't know whether she should stand or sit.

"It's already noon. I'll take you to lunch!" Mana glanced at the dilapidated wall clock on the wall and took Long Xiaoqi into the side kitchen.

There is not even a window in the kitchen, and the only lighting tool is a small electric light.

Mana skillfully turned on the light and turned it up from the kitchen, as if she was looking for something.

"Here." With that, Mana had taken out a basin from the cabinet with a smile, which contained something black and seemed to be a little red. Long Xiaoqi took a look and couldn't help but have a nausea.

"What is this?" Long Xiaoqi didn't want to look any more. She frowned and stared at Mana, as if she doubted whether she had poisoned her food.

"Gaya soup, a kind of snack we have here, very good, dragon, you can try it." With that, Mana had grabbed a sweet potato from it with her hand, put it into her mouth, and chewed it tastefully.

Looking at Mana's eating appearance and looking at the food in the basin, Long Xiaoqi still seemed to be a little untrustworthy, but before he could react, Mana grabbed one again and handed it to Long Xiaoqi's mouth. Looking at Mana's sincere eyes and innocent eyes, Long Xiaoqi could only endure to eat.

Although this sweet potato soup doesn't look good, it tastes good. Sweet and a little cold, put in your mouth, the more you chew, the more fragrant it will be, and the more chewy it will be.

Long Xiaoqi smiled and looked very satisfied. She picked up another one and put it in her mouth.

"Bear by the way, where do you have a place to shop?" Long Xiaoqi asked while eating. She seemed to be obsessed with this kind of food. She simply grabbed a handful and swallowed it in one bite. Long Yi left a bundle* for Long Xiaoqi before leaving, so that he could go around the stalls under the leadership of Mana. Maybe there will be something he likes.

"Generally, large shopping places are in the center of Manchester City. This is just a remote suburb. It's nothing. However, if you want to go shopping, I can take you to the stall in front of you." Mana thought for a moment and then said to Long Xiaoqi.

"Ye! Then take me to have a look! Anyway, I have nothing to do." Long Xiaoqi ate the last sweet potato in her hand and patted her stomach with satisfaction, indicating that she was full.

"I can't do it today. I need to take you to the venue of the competition and confirm your registration." When it comes to this topic, Mana is like a person, no longer so simple, with a rigorous look at work and a little cunning.

"All right!" When he first arrived here, Long Xiaoqi was as confused as a headless fly. Without Mana's help, he had no doubt that he would be trapped here.

The two walked out of the dilapidated bungalow and, led by Mana, came to the door of the stadium.

Along the way, the two fought and laughed, and the relationship also pulled in a lot. Long Xiaoqi is very curious about Mana's background. She is so big that she speaks Chinese so fluently. Is that man her father? Why is she still old enough to go to school, and her father let her do this job?

For Long Xiaoqi's series of questions, Mana did not answer her, but just smiled, but her eyes were full of helplessness and sourness. As if she remembered something, she looked at the sky sadly. Perhaps the beautiful and illusory white clouds were what she yearned for most.

"Dragon, do you believe in fate?" Mana turned her head sideways and seemed to be waiting for Long Xiaoqi's answer.

"This..." Long Xiaoqi hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything. Long Yi once told him that most people in Manchester believe in Buddhism. If she told Mana that she was an atheist, she didn't know if she would be beaten.

"I believe it!" Without waiting for Long Xiaoqi to answer, Mana had opened her mouth gently.

"Every time I go to a nearby Buddhist temple, I have a hazy feeling of déjà vu. Sitting in the temple and listening to the sound of the Buddha, I always have an inexplicable feeling in my heart, like the clouds in the sky, separated from everything in the world, floating to my home without distractions." Speaking of this, Mana put her hands together and bowed devoutly to the West.

Long Xiaoqi looked at everything in front of her in shock, shook her head, said nothing more, and quietly followed Mana to the distance.

"Here, Dragon, it's here." The two stopped in front of an ancient Roman building and looked at Long Xiaoqi's doubtful eyes. Mana nodded confidently.

Looking around, this stadium is not as magnificent as Long Xiaoqi imagined. The dilapidated walls, collapsed stone pillars, and uneven appearance complement the surrounding scenery.

Long Xiaoqi's eyes were full of suspicion. He was even afraid that he didn't know when the stadium would collapse. If he happened to be in it, although he did not die on the battlefield, he died under the ruins, and his life's reputation was not completely destroyed in the hands of this dilapidated building.

"Dragon, let's go in!" Mana seemed to see Long Xiaoqi's thoughts, but she didn't say anything more. She just reminded Long Xiaoqi that they still had something to do.

Long Xiaoqi shook her head helplessly. Although she was extremely reluctant, she still bravely followed up. Who let him be a guest here! Long Xiaoqi has heard these four words since she was a child.

The golden door was not open, and the two had to enter through the side door. Mana said that this door would only be opened when the game was officially opened, otherwise, the gate would be closed all year round.

Entering the field is like entering a dark world. There was no light here, only the occasional sunlight, as if he had met the devil hidden in the field and fled in fear.

"In fact, we generally call this arena, because not only global competitions are held here, but also competitions in some places will also be held here." Although it can't be seen clearly, Mana can still shuttle around the field with Long Xiaoqi with her memory.

In the air, there was a smell of decay and a little fishy smell, which made Long Xiaoqi feel very uncomfortable. She covered her nose and followed Mana closely.

"Ha ha, just wait for you to get used to it. Someone will die in the ring here every week. For the people who live here all year round, they have been used to it." With that, Mana took out a piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to Long Xiaoqi.

"Look, when we pass through that door, we will be able to see the sunshine again, and the place of registration confirmation is also behind that door." As she walked, Mana compared Long Xiaoqi, like an experienced tour guide, telling tourists about the past, history, glory and decline here.

walked to the door and took advantage of the sunshine outside the door. Long Xiaoqi looked inside again. Although the whole arena is empty, it is not very good, Long Xiaoqi always feels that it is not as small as seen outside, just like Xumi mustard, giving people a mysterious and mysterious feeling.

"Dragon, that's it." Mana took Long Xiaoqi to the front of a table and said a few words to a sitting old man that Long Xiaoqi didn't understand. Then she saw the old man looking at Long Xiaoqi carefully.

"Long, this is your qualification." After a while, Mana picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it to Long Xiaoqi. Long Xiaoqi looked at the dense tadpole text on it and felt that her head was big. Without saying anything, she stuffed it directly into her pocket.
