Chapter 6: Spartan Training
Ninety minutes later. After eating breakfast www.biquge.info Ebner and Leonida, they came to the fitness club near the hotel.
It is completely different from the clean, tidy, beautiful and peaceful pictures advertised in those advertisements, which is enough to constitute the contrast of [false advertising].
The environment is fine, but I also know that the place where a large number of people gather to exercise is naturally filled with a lot of sweat.
Even with the ventilation fan on, there is still an almost terrifying temperature difference between indoor and outdoor, which is completely different from the dry and cold streets, on the other side of the clean glass, it is a warm and humid space.
Ebner once heard the news of an old man who stepped into a café with strong air conditioning on the hot street and caused his sudden death, and the situation of the two was the opposite, and the two suddenly entered the warm and humid space from the dry and cold space.
Thinking about something unrelated, EBNER smiled subtly.
"So, I wonder what Leonidas-kun thinks about this?"
Of course, he is talking about the macho men who are struggling in the fitness club, wearing simple and simple sweatshirts and shorts, proudly throwing their strong and well-proportioned arms and thighs outside, so that the people around them can clearly see the extent of the muscles that are agitated with the explosion of strength.
"Hmm? Anyway, where is the fitness club?"
In this regard, Leonidas crossed his hands to his chest and asked rhetorically not quite incomprehensibly. Beneath his dark sunglasses, there were many expressions of surprise written in disbelief.
"I'm not interested in the playgrounds in the city, where are the fitness clubs. ”
He asked Abner in a resounding affirmative sentence.
"This is it. ”
"Huh?!"
With this doubt, Leonida's already confused expression exploded into disbelief.
"Is this the [training] of this era? weak, too weak!"
Leonidas shook his head weakly and added: "This kind of training, not to mention Persia, even Athens can't do it." ”
In the minds of this terrifying warrior, the training should be more intense, more brutal, once bloody, or at least, more sweaty.
In order to protect their families and the country, the brave warriors forged their flesh and blood into steel in order to deal with various battlefields, this is the [Fitness Club], right?
But what is this?
It is no exaggeration to say that Leonidas could knock them all down.
Originally, someone broke in, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on the past, but now hearing Leonidas's loud voice saying such slanderous words about himself, everyone became even more uncontrollable anger. Most of the people who come to the gym are men, and as the body gets stronger, the spirit inevitably becomes braver.
Although you don't understand English, you can still understand basic vocabulary such as "weak". Seeing that the giant man in the suit said that he was weak, the men's faces were a little unbearable, and everyone cast their angry eyes on him.
The two of them in the midst of the turmoil in their sight did not realize that they had offended everyone.
"Sure enough, can't it be in your eyes?"
"Huh...... Of course......"
"Ah, Leonidas, aside, you can't force them to educate. ”
Albernar looked at the brow-wrinkled heroic spirit beside him, and kindly reminded him.
Unexpectedly, Leonidas actually just turned his head and looked down at his master, the pimple in his eyebrows tightened, and he said in a slightly angry tone, almost reproachfully: "Abner, what are you thinking! What kind of actions of free men are their freedom! Free men have no right to interfere with the actions of other free men!"
(Oops, oops, do you blame me?)
Abner also sensed that something was wrong in his tone, smiled kindly, and did not continue to discuss the topic with him. Leonidas turned his head disdainfully, clasped his hands on his chest, and his strong muscles interlaced into a powerful figure.
(I don't hate this man's personality at all, though.) )
Albert has seen too much: duplicity. The same thing, one standard for others, another standard for oneself. I can't do what others ask me to do.
For example, in the dormitory of the clock tower, how many people are asking others to do experiments quietly, but the experiments at hand are making a deafening roar.
Leonidas, though paranoid and stubborn, also had the shortcomings of being bloody and tyrannical, at least he was the same on the outside. He was tyrannical to his enemies and would not show favor to EBNER. He recognized the freedom of the Spartans, and in no way undermined the freedom of others.
"But ......"
Leonidas' sudden syllables interrupted Abner's thoughts. I saw a confident smile on the corner of this heroic spirit's mouth. This smile was seen many times by Abner: just last night, during the battle with the Rider, Leonidas showed it several times.
"I will not interfere with their will...... But if they themselves were to follow me, it would be a different story. Eat more meat, exercise more, muscles provide speed and strength, as well as cushioning your bones, which are definitely not a bad thing. ”
Ingeniously hearing the meaning of Leonidas's words, "Exercise with me", Abner smiled and nodded silently.
As mentioned before, modern magicians have long been not interested in studying the magic way, in order to make their bodies able to withstand more magic power, magicians will choose some martial arts to exercise their bodies.
As for Abner, he is no exception.
The title of heretical magician ends with [magician], no matter how deviant he is, Abner still does what magicians should do.
Boom!
The door to the gym was slammed shut by Leonida's heroic palm.
Even the specialized tempered glass was shaken by his palm, and it was almost cracked.
Naturally, Leonidas's rude behavior ignited the anger in the eyes of the people around him even more, and all of them attracted to himself...... Albert went to the front desk to pay the fee, and by this time, Leonidas had already started looking for the right gym equipment.
Everyone in the fitness club stood up very tacitly, stopped the exercise in their hands, and wanted to see what kind of fitness method this giant man would use.
However, for this anachronistic heroic spirit, most of the fitness equipment in the new era is flashy, and after looking around, he finally chose ......
"Well, let's run forty kilometers first. ”
It's a treadmill.
Leonidas chose a lap and finally stood in front of the machine. The common sense given to him by the Holy Grail says that this is a wonderful fitness machine that will only stay where it is, no matter how many miles it runs.
Abner leaned over and helped him set the parameters, only to hear him muttering something like "if the Athenians can run, the Spartans can't fall behind ......" and so on, and Alberner could only smile wryly and help him set the mileage.
I guess Leonidas was talking about Philippides in the Battle of Marathon?
Behind him, the men from the gym looked at him silently, glancing at each other, and a few young men came out of the crowd, standing quietly on the machine next to Leonidas.
This is the competition. Silent challenge.
It looks like they're going to compete with Leonida and tell him he's not weak, right?
Faced with this situation, Abner could only smile bitterly, teach Leonidas how to set the speed of the treadmill, and then silently squeeze out the crowd. Silently walked towards the leather target for boxing training.
Worried about Leonidas?
All the previous things have shown that this Heroic Spirit is very calm when he is not in battle. It's better to worry about yourself than him.
"I've been a little rusty lately...... However, it should be okay. ”
Ebner also did not wear gloves, and quietly performed the magic trick, and the skin of his hands shone slightly white, similar to his white skin, which was not obvious unless he looked closely.
That's the magic of strengthening, by strengthening the skin, to protect the wrist. Boxing gloves were invented not to protect the wrists of fighters, but to protect the opponent's face. For Abner, who is a real-time fighter and also a magician, boxing gloves don't make sense at all.
Slightly lowering his waist, Abner quickly threw two jabs, the feeling of training was still in his body, and after a while, he was immersed in the fight with his imaginary enemy, alternating with both hands of jabs, and with the swing of his body, the fists rained down on the training target.
Unfortunately, everyone's eyes were drawn to Leonidas, and no one noticed Ebernar.
By the way, the two of them spent the whole morning in the fitness club.
Although Leonidas didn't make any demands on anyone, watching this strong man play with his life's training, those who were quite confident in their figure raised their spirits one after another, and they did not admit defeat and [competed] with him...... The event ranged from the marathon at the beginning, to push-ups and squats at the back, to weightlifting - no, it wasn't weightlifting, Leonidas picked up the barbell and brandished it like a hammer......
Naturally, everyone lost to Leonidas. A large group of young and vigorous men were dripping in sweat, while Leonidas was still breathing evenly, with a mocking and proud smile on his face.
As a result, there is one more urban legend in Qianxi: a foreign duo that haunts the streets, one white and thin, the other tall and strong. Regarding the identities of the two, there are various combinations from black-clad police detectives to talent scouts, and they have become the focus of the public for a while.
