Chapter 480: The Bloody Game
The club had more than one room. Xu Huo saw lights flash in sequence behind the seat of each person present. After a few seconds' interval, they lit up one by one a second time. Then, the room's audio system sounded:
"Congratulations to VIP number 17 for obtaining the drawing right. Next, buttons numbered one through ten will appear before you. Each button corresponds to a containment pod. Different types of Mutants are imprisoned within these pods, including carnivores deprived of food and water for over three days, newly evolved species that enjoy torturing their prey, and mutated Mutants in their mating season. You simply need to randomly select one from these ten buttons."
VIP number 17 was not in the same room as Xu Huo. A few seconds later, the result was announced, "VIP number 17 has selected containment pod number three. The performance is about to begin."
The voice began a countdown again. With each number heard, the woman in the holographic projection trembled, until the final "0." At that moment, a black shadow suddenly pounced from one side, directly stepping on the woman and slamming into the enclosed wall surrounding the stage!
Although the metal wall was dented by the impact, the woman was not injured. She used her hands and feet to firmly support the black panther that had pounced onto her—this was likely a mutated black panther. Its body size was only slightly larger than an ordinary leopard, but all its teeth had grown into sharp points, resembling two rows of small, serrated blades. Additionally, its canine teeth were abnormally long. When it roared, the corners of its mouth split, connected to its upper and lower jaws by a layer of pink, fleshy membrane, allowing its mouth to open to an extremely wide angle.
"Roar! Roar!" The black panther's sharp claws dug deeply into the woman's hands and feet. Because its neck was pinned by the woman's arm, no matter how wide it opened its jaws, it couldn't bite her throat.
"This should be that carnivore deprived of food and water," Palada said, swirling his wine glass. "Does it look like it's been starving for three days?"
"She's a C-level player, after all. Her physical strength is there. And to increase the spectacle, the club must have let her rest and recover her energy," Ran Ying chimed in. "What's the point if she gets bitten to death immediately?"
She was right. The woman on the stage indeed had good stamina. She quickly raised one foot to replace her hands in pinning the black panther's throat, then forcibly pulled her hands and feet free from its sharp claws. With a fierce flip, she landed on its back and applied a chokehold!
