Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy Fourth Competition Venue

"right here?"

Queen Yekana stepped off the magic station and stood in front of Hearthstone Tavern.

The queen doesn't dislike places like taverns. There are also taverns in the Iron Kingdom, but the taverns are also divided into levels.

The most luxurious tavern in the Iron Country is no less than the manor built by the nobles, so she also has some expectations of what the tavern built by the great magic net creator will look like.

In the end, the reality gave the queen an answer, that is, it is no different from the taverns that can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.

From time to time, a few dwarves wrapped in mineral ash pushed the door and walked into the tavern, which made Queen Yekana physically resist.

"Hearthstone Tavern, I know it's hard for you to accept, but this is where the duel takes place."

General Fred was not as hypocritical as Queen Yecana, he pushed open the door and walked into it.

The queen followed General Fred into the tavern without saying a word.

The scenery in the tavern was much better than she expected, at least not as chaotic as expected, but as noisy as ever.

"Welcome to the Hearthstone Tavern, Mr. Kaos."

"Your acquaintance?"

Queen Yekana glanced at the 'waitress' in the tavern, and always felt that 'her' looked very familiar. The warm blue eyes of this 'waitress' were as peaceful as a lake, but watching After a long time, there is an inexplicable urge to be possessed by others.

This strange temperament made Queen Yekana sure that this 'girl' should dress up well, enough to convince many men.

"Yes."

Prince Kaos was hovering in front of the guillotine at this time, of course he didn't dare to tell a lie to the executioner.

"My name is Ino... I am a student of Rursk Elementary School of Magic. Mr. Kaos helped me a lot in the past."

Even though this young succubus Ino has been in the tavern for so many years, he still hasn't learned the skill of 'seeing people'.

Ino didn't notice Kaos' embarrassed expression at all, and just received the guests with the courtesy that a servant should have.

"Are you a demon?"

Queen Yekana looked at Ino again, and instantly recognized the fact that this 'girl' was not human.

"That... that... this lady... I..."

At this moment, Ino entered a state of alertness. This succubus still cared about his race very much... This made Ino's speech a little incoherent.

"Welcome to the contestants."

When Ino was trying to defend himself, Ino was patted on the shoulder, and when the succubus turned his head, Joshua was already standing beside him.

"Ino, the guests over there need a refill."

Joshua gave Ino an order, and the succubus obediently took the tray and left here.

"You are the owner of the tavern?" Queen Yekana stared at Joshua.

Joshua could feel a strong wave of magic power from this woman, and it was the person in purple who gave Joshua this feeling last time.

"That's right, I'm the owner of this tavern, the creator of the magic net, and the youngest recipient of the Skjrona Award, well... I've already finished the titles I can praise, so please directly Let's get to the point."

Qiao Xiu didn't intend to waste time on this kind of aristocratic communication.

"The venue for the competition is here, please follow me."

As a guide, Joshua led General Fred and his party towards the depths of the tavern.

Queen Yekana slowly followed behind Joshua. She admitted that after entering the tavern, she still had a bad impression of the tavern, but it was indeed changing.

The specific improvement is...the feeling of a 'secret underground association'.

Because the guests in the tavern are not simple guys, even a dwarf who is sitting next to him and shouting looks like a powerful warrior, not to mention that Queen Yekana can vaguely feel the magic power here that is no less than her own. .

All this made the queen look forward to the venue that Joshua was preparing for.

Could it be that there is some hidden door in the underground of the tavern that leads to a secret arena?

It's normal for this kind of tavern to run some shady activities behind the scenes.

But the fact is cruel.

"Uh... the venue for the competition is here, and the audience area is here... right?"

Joshua brought General Fred and his party to the corner of Hearthstone Tavern.

Everything here is telling Queen Yekana the meaning of the word "shabby".

"These two wooden tables are the venue for the competition?"

Empress Yekana finally couldn't bear it anymore. She looked at the two old wooden tables in front of her and put them together temporarily, and there seemed to be some dust on them.

"To be precise, it's one. Considering efficiency, each team shares a wooden table. I found it in the warehouse behind the tavern yesterday. Please don't mind if there is some dust..."

After Joshua introduced the competition area, he walked to the other side.

"These are vacated chairs. I suggest you find one to sit on. Otherwise, if there are too many people watching, you may not be able to grab them."

It wasn't long after Qiao Xiu introduced the location of the audience area, Empress Yekana's face had already shown a livid expression.

Joshua could also understand why she showed this expression.

Gladiatorial competitions are very popular in the country of steel, and it is also the fastest way for a commoner to win glory. The venues for the competitions are probably the ones that cover an area close to a football field, and the auditorium is large enough to accommodate more than 10,000 people...

Now Queen Yekana's situation is almost like watching the duel between the two knights in the back garden, but today she has to come to the mud pit to watch the fight between the two reckless men.

"It's really just like what General Fred said, it's a... small game."

Queen Yekana was not too pretentious like other noble women. Although her attendants had brought over the best chair in the audience, the queen did not sit down, but stared at Joshua.

"Mr. Joshua Arnorod, if we win the victory, we can get the World Tree Crystal on you, right?"

"It's a terrible perception."

Qiao Xiu directly took out the crystal of the World Tree.

"This is the winner's reward, ma'am... If you want to get this crystal, you must first defeat challengers from other countries."

"What about the other challengers?"

Queen Yekana no longer has the patience to stay here and continue this farce. She still has a lot of things to deal with, such as the future development plan of Prince Kaos.

"Some people haven't arrived yet, while others are there." Joshua pointed to the other side of the Hearthstone Tavern.

Queen Yekana looked in the direction Joshua was pointing at. After seeing the competitors from other countries clearly, she admitted...she was amused by Joshua.

"Those civilians who don't even have magic power?" Queen Yekana didn't hold back her sarcasm at all.

Humans in this world have the ability to use magic, but not everyone can have the title of spellcaster.

Even if several of the contestants from other countries have passed the test of the spellcaster, in the eyes of Queen Yekana, a terrifying spellcaster, they are no different from the chicks that have just hatched.

On the other hand, the candidate chosen by General Fred seems to be much more reliable, at least it seems to be very capable.

"Josh Arnorod, can you give me an accurate bargaining chip directly." Queen Yekana wanted to directly buy the crystal in Joshua's hand.

But before Joshua could speak, her proposal was interrupted by another person's voice.

"Your Highness Yekana, the rules of this game have been settled, and even you may not be able to stop it."

"Lontian Karshilov, do you still remember who gave you mercy to see me here alive?"

The queen's expression didn't change, but after her words, the fox-like man just saluted slightly.

"Please also appease your anger over the disastrous defeat of His Royal Highness Prince Kaos yesterday. After all, we may also be defeated by us today."

Although he bowed respectfully, he still didn't show any mercy when he spoke.

The queen was unexpectedly restrained, and Joshua believed that if he faced such a provocation that poked his heart, he might just pick up the chair and throw it on the opposite head.

On the contrary, their subordinates have already started to put their hands on the staff and long sword.

"Sofina..."

Prince Kaos immediately saw the chief disciple of the man in yellow in the Frost Kingdom team.

"Anyway... Let's settle your grievances and grievances in the competition." Qiao Xiu intervened between the two sides before it developed into a real-life fight. "Because it's the first time, the venue is a bit shabby, let's make do with it..."
