Bab 233: Chapter 235 Arena_2

Until that moment, Master Hammerfire finally revealed his true purpose. He wanted Rocky to participate in the Arena competition, not for the prize money which was minuscule for their research, but for the gambling outside the Arena!

This idea was absolutely brilliant!

Because, as Pelaya said, the prize money offered by the Arena might be substantial for the average person, but it was nowhere near enough for their research. However, the gambling was different; the more you bet, the more you could earn, potentially multiplying your investment many times over. The money earned from gambling could indeed support the research for the Rune Armor!

"No, it's still too dangerous."

Unfortunately, after Master Hammerfire had explained all his thoughts, Orton still shook his head like a bobblehead, firmly disagreeing.

And his reason was simple: the Arena was too dangerous.
