Chapter 597: Brother Ji is still a wise man
Black boxing fighters are classified according to their level of cultivation and are divided into four levels: foundation building, golden elixir, primordial infant, and returning to the void.
As for the Divine Transformation and Mahayana stages, monsters or human cultivators with this level of cultivation naturally don't need to fight dirty boxing to earn money. They can make a living by doing anything, even if they go to a new energy factory to sell themselves as batteries and soak in a jar for a year, they can earn enough for ten years of food expenses.
That’s right, in the extremely capitalized Demon Alliance, selling one’s skin to power plants is also a way to make a living.
Many powerful monsters with high cultivation levels have no education and their innate magical powers are not suitable for making money, so they simply choose to sell themselves to support their families.
In addition to selling skins to generate electricity in electric fields, one can also sell blood, bone marrow, or participate in the elixir test at Jinling University Medical School.
Unless the innate magical power has special lethality, the Demon Alliance military generally will not recruit immigrant demons into the army. Even if one has high cultivation and is good at fighting, he or she may not be able to make a name for himself in the Demon Alliance system by force.
After all, if ordinary people put on the latest version of the immortal-level Iron Man armor, their combat power can reach the immortal level. Wen Rui recruited a group of monsters, so he really didn't need them to be cannon fodder.
Wen Rui's greatest expectation for the monsters is that they can live a clear and decent life and pass on their diverse genes.
Underground black boxing gyms are definitely not allowed to open in the main urban area, not because there will be casualties during fights between players, but because it violates fire regulations, and high taxes are imposed as it involves gambling.
Although the murder case must be solved, both parties will sign a life and death agreement before the fight. The spirit of the contract is highly respected in the Demon Alliance and is regulated by special laws.
If one party dies in a fight after signing the life and death agreement, according to the contract, the other party does not need to bear legal responsibility.
Gambling is also allowed in the Demon Alliance, but official supervision is strict, it is difficult to obtain a license, and the business tax is also the highest.
Black boxing gyms are opened in shanty towns mostly to avoid taxes. The big bosses behind the scenes may not necessarily be thugs from the shanty towns, but may be big shots from the upper city.
Wen Rui was eating popcorn, looking at the two contestants on the stage with huge differences in physique, and muttered: "What is the Binhai City Civil Affairs Department doing? That cat has two children to raise. Is it necessary to fight so hard? No matter how you look at it, there is no chance of winning. There is no way to break the defense."
With just one glance, Wen Rui was able to retrieve the personal information of all citizens of the Demon Alliance from the big data system. From the file of the black cat player, she immigrated to Binhai City three months ago. Her household registration was that of a family of three from the south of Xiniu Hezhou, a small country further south of the Peacock Dynasty.
This cat had only one record of violating the law. The record said that she was picking up garbage to eat with her children. When she was discovered by the police, she resisted arrest and escaped. She was very agile and was captured with air support. She was released the next day.
Her realm is only the initial stage of Jindan, and her cultural level is illiterate, but her two children have already enrolled in the kindergarten and primary school in Binhai City, and have also enrolled in many after-school tutoring classes.
Binhai Kindergarten is not covered by the nine-year compulsory education, and the immigrant girl is not eligible to attend a public kindergarten. The private kindergarten her younger daughter attends has good conditions, so the fee is not low.
Her son's primary school is free, but he still has to pay for all the expenses such as books, school uniforms, stationery, etc. In addition, he cannot keep up with the progress of his classmates and needs tutoring after class to catch up, which is also a considerable expense.
Obviously, an immigrant cat-demon single mother who is illiterate, of low level, and without any special skills to make a living, cannot afford the education expenses for her two children by doing odd jobs in the city.
Many immigrants simply choose to drop out of school or leave them to roam free in school. It doesn't matter what they learn, as long as they can get a free nutritious meal at school. This cat mother attaches great importance to her child's education and provides her child with the best educational conditions, but in order to make enough money, she has to engage in dangerous work such as underground black boxing death fights.
Wen Rui couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy for the cat mother. Obviously, although this cat was uneducated, it was definitely well-informed. It understood that only by studying could the next generation change their destiny, so it spared no effort to provide the best educational conditions for its children.
Sympathy is sympathy, but he doesn't intend to do anything about it. There are so many miserable monsters in the world, how can he control them all?
However, the Demon Alliance has highlighted many problems, such as the increasing corruption among the upper class and the social welfare and education systems of the lower classes, which require him to think carefully about solutions.
The fight is about to begin, and the sexy girls holding signs in cool clothes have finished their walk around the venue and are back on stage showing off their figures.
A weasel spirit, relying on its small size and nimble movements, squeezed through the crowd and came in front of Wen Rui and Kong Xuan, rubbing its hands and grinning, "Boss, do you want to place a bet?"
The guests who could spend a thousand meat coins to sit in the front row were definitely not there just to watch the fun, they were likely to place a large bet, so the weasel in charge of the betting naturally had to step forward and talk to them.
"Is it necessary to place a bet? The difference in strength is too great, isn't it?" Wen Rui waved his hand and said, "This isn't a weapon fight, is it? That big stupid rhino is just standing there and being scratched by a cat. It won't die even if it's scratched all day long. It can't break its defense at all."
"Not necessarily, Boss. It's possible that we can drag it out until the time is up and win by points."
The weasel was very good at salesmanship, and he said with a grin, "The odds are so high, maybe there will be a big upset, and you can make a lot of money."
Wen Rui narrowed his eyes, knowing clearly in his mind that the weasel had no good intentions. The rhinoceros demon nicknamed 'Iron Chariot' seemed to be just thick-skinned and tough, but in fact, there were special magical powers on its rhino horns that could cast an instant immobilization spell.
All this information was clearly written in the big data archives. The rhino's victories seemed to be due to its superior martial arts and precise punches, but in fact, it was a sneak attack using a spell to freeze the opponent and finish him off with one punch.
Although the cat demon is very agile as an opponent, according to the analysis results given by Jarvis, the winning rate is close to zero and the mortality rate is as high as 60%.
The reason why it did not reach 100% was because the Demon Alliance had surgical medical technology to back it up, and the Black Boxing Arena hired highly skilled doctors to stay on site to minimize the death rate of players in order to achieve sustainable fishing.
Moreover, if a few people die each year, it is acceptable, but if too many die and the impact is too bad, the city government will crack down on it severely.
Kong Xuan, who was sitting next to Wen Rui and licking ice cream, smiled and said, "You bet 10,000 meat coins on that cat demon for me. I think that little cat has a good chance of winning."
The weasel quickly flattered, "Hey, this chicken owner is really smart. Fortune and wealth are sought in danger. The last time the rat demon defeated the elephant demon, it was beyond everyone's expectations. The customers who bet on the rat demon made a fortune in no time."
Wen Rui was stunned, and casually took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and handed it to the weasel without counting: "Listen to my brother Ji, and bet all on the cat demon."
After the bet was made, Wen Rui released his spiritual sense, opened his divine eyes, and stared at the cat demon for a long time, but he could not see anything strange at all. It was clearly a little demon at the initial stage of the Golden Core, with nothing special about it.
