Sam opened his eyes only after an hour when he realized that no one was around him. Except for Arman.
Even though he is not affected by whatever powder he was fed, Sam didn’t show it to them, he just pretended to be asleep, to get inside.
That is because it is almost impossible for him and Arman to get any information on the Palace of inheritance without getting in contact with a city.
As for getting any information by kidnapping people from the city, it is actually quite hard to do so because, from what he saw those people on the Purple Fla horses happened to be the lowest-ranked soldiers, and from the discussion he heard the young master is trying to recruit so of them into his personal guard for training.
If even the Grand realm cultivators are only ordinary soldiers, then he would have to kidnap a Transcendent to have any chance of getting decent information out of him.
For that, he would have to use so of his trump cards which he is not willing to.
Now, with this step, he entered the city without a worry. All this while, the Old Naga is beside them and for that reason, he didn’t even dare to openly scan the surroundings.
But he still tried to rember as much route as possible, even then he wasn’t able to completely rember it. Anyway, he is not worried. There is almost a year and anything can happen in this one year.
At this mont, Arman also woke up and looked around with shock. He was knocked out by Sam himself, since then he didn’t know what happened at all.
"We are caught by the people of this city. We don’t know exactly what they want, but I heard sothing related to Arena. Maybe we are here to fight or sothing. Be prepared."
After that, Sam stood up and looked around the room. His cultivation was not restricted at all, then he took a look at this spatial ring. Everything is there, the pills, spirit stones, and even the formation discs. None of them are taken away.
But Sam could sense that the spatial ring was checked, there are traces of another person’s spiritual imprint on it. As for divine dinsion, it is still in his stomach. He doesn’t know if the people of Naga Loka can identify the divine dinsion. But he doesn’t want to find out.
So, he decisively swallowed it. He looked around in the room and noticed that there is a bathroom attached to it and other than that, there is nothing else. The room was completely sealed on all four sides.
There is only one door on the ceiling and it is more like a lid. There are many devices that work on spiritual energy inside the room. they are so for illuminating and so to create necessary ventilation and such.
The walls are completely Black and there is not much they could find in this room.
Sam looked at the corner of the room and noticed that there are so crystal-like objects that resembled a large eye.
They seed to be surveillance equipnt to keep an eye on them.
Sam walked into the bathroom and noticed, that there is no surveillance here. He ca out and looked at the floor and walls of the room. Everything is marked with runes. Even the stones are not so normal rocks.
He placed his hands and tried to use observation ability, the spiritual energy entered the Black stone, but after a few seconds, even after his face turned red from ntal pressure, he was barely able to sense a few centiters into the stone. The density of the grains is too high.
He does have so guesses about the material, but none of the guesses is good news for them. Because no matter what material he thought it was, it wouldn’t even be destroyed by a consummate realm easily.
Arman is in a tense state with all this happening and being locked in a room with Sam is not helping at all. He looked at Sam who seed to be so relaxed and taking a stroll.
As both of them had completely different thoughts, all of sudden the lid on top opened with a ladder coming down.
"Co up both of you."
A voice could be heard from upstairs.
Both of them exchanged a glance and climbed up. There are two people above the entrance and both of them have scaly skin and of different shades of purple. But they have human eyes and more human features.
They seed to be half-Nagas. The Old Beast ntioned them too. Sam felt a bit relieved when seeing them because he was already fed up with the Nagas. Even though, their features are not as irritating, that dark purple color is sowhat aversive to him.
Maybe, that is because he saw too much purple in a single day. On top of that, these pure-blooded Nagas have too many brighter shades and if not for the fact that they do have different facial features in the humanoid form, he would have suffered trauma and went crazy.
Who knows how many people will suffer because of that?
As he was lost in his own thoughts, he looked around and noticed that a similar scene is happening. The Half-Nagas are all fetching the people from rooms. The Half-Nagas led them towards a room in a maze-like path.
Sam almost felt as if he was in Hogwarts. Because, they didn’t pass through a single door, instead of whenever they reached so walls, the bricks are opening up a path to another area.
After ten minutes, they arrived at a certain area. A Naga with Purple scales that had a Black hue is staying inside the room and this is the first female Naga Sam has seen after entering this world. Even though she was scaly and tall, she still has that seductive aura around her, which made so of the prisoners, drool.
She looked at them with a smile, which is not exactly a smile, and started shoving pills down every prisoner’s throat.
As soon as the pill entering his stomach, Sam realized that the hydra bloodline is acting up again. In the past two days, this bloodline is more active than I was in the past three months.
After that, the prisoner is all led to a eting room.
Where everyone was forced to sit.
Soon, a man appeared on the stage and he is also a pure Naga but with purple and blue shades on scales. Sam didn’t use his eye technique, but he can still sense from just the pressure that he is too strong.
"My dear humans.
You are the new batch of recruits in our Arena. First of all, let tell you sothing. The pill you just ate is a poison that would slowly kill you.
And the only way to temporarily suppress it and still keep your body in its best state is by taking the als we give you. If you don’t take any al for a day, you will slowly die depending on your natural immunity."
All the prisoners inhaled a sharp breath.
"But nothing could be earned easily. You have to earn every al. For that, you would have to have a fight every day in the Arena.
The audience will be the nobles, rchants, and anyone else that could pay money to enter.
Since you are a beginner it is almost impossible for you guys to gather any attention. But the more fights you win and the more entertaining your fight is, the more inco you would generate.
The more inco you generate, the more valuable you are to the arena and the more perks you get. Today, you are all going to have your first fight.
For the next three days, your battles will not be promoted, they are just the extra matches we are providing for the audience in the break ti. In these three days, it is your performance and audience’s interest in you that would give you a place on the fourth day as a real fight event or another bonus match, we provide for the custors.
So, get ready and perform well.
There are going to be fight divisions based on your cultivation level.
The Nascent stage initial stage cultivators are all one division, the Middle-stage are considered another and finally, the late-stage cultivators are another.
Once, you increase the cultivation level, you wouldn’t be able to participate in a lower division match, but as a lower division contender, you can challenge a higher division contender but you should occupy a higher rank within your division.
If and after you beco a great prospect and bring enough money, you would be promoted to better living conditions like a better cell with open ventilation and if you can perform even better and generate more inco, then you can gain a great residence with all the luxuries.
The perks are endless. So, try your best to gain them."
