Chapter 174: The Adventure of Stealing Medicine (Part I)

The atmosphere was stirred up by Campbell, and the dignitaries generously donated money to bet on their favorite warriors. It's just that VIP bets are not cash, nor vouchers, but gold. There are two markets in total, Warriors vs. Heroes. Now the game is a battle of the warriors, where VIPs can bet on one or more warriors, and the odds are adjusted every two minutes depending on the bet.

Although the sixteen gladiators were all masters of martial arts, Chu Tianjiang didn't take them seriously at all.

"Mr. Yan, aren't you interested?"

Chu Tianjiang smiled and said to Campbell, who was sitting on the sofa: "Although I love gambling, I never participate in gambling games that I am not sure of. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Mr. Campbell, you and I are both casino masters, this handicap is clearly only profitable and not losing, who loses and who wins after the most, it's not up to you to decide?" Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "Besides, gambling on one's life with someone else's hand has never been Yan someone's practice. ”

"So, Mr. Yan is excited to try his skills?"

Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "Such an ordinary product can't arouse my interest in doing it." Even if you want to gamble, you have to look at it. ”

Campbell smiled and said, "Mr. Yan is arrogant and admirable. If Mr. Yan is interested, he must have a look. ”

At this time, the gong sounded.

Hundreds of VIPs have placed bets, ranging from tens of pounds of gold to several pounds. The host enters the center arena, followed by two naked beauties depicting classical war scenes. Sixteen gladiators divided into two rows, each taking out a ball marked with a number from the box held by the beautiful woman.

After the draw was completed, two gladiators who had won "1" remained in the arena, and the other fourteen gladiators retreated into the iron cage passage.

The moderator began to introduce the identities of the two gladiators, as well as the weapons they were good at. The two gladiators walked around the arena about ten meters straight, showing off their muscles and weapons to the VIPs around them, and occasionally making slashing and stabbing movements.

The atmosphere was mobilized again, and as the host left, the excited VIPs immediately quieted down.

Two gladiators, one wielding a short sword and curved shield, the other armed with a spear and a small round shield. In terms of armor, both men wear helmets, the former has a heart armor, while the latter has shoulder pads. The weapons and armor are made of stainless steel and are elaborate in form, the former imitating the ancient Roman "fish fighter" and the latter the "spear fighter", which were most common in ancient Rome.

Although Chu Tianjiang didn't know much about the gladiators of ancient Rome, he could see at a glance that these two people were not powerful.

At the beginning of the gladiatorial fight, neither of them rushed to attack, but constantly teased and tested their opponents, saw their opponents' routines clearly, and looked for their opponents' weaknesses.

After a few moments, the impatient VIPs began to cheer.

Stimulated, the spear fighter was the first to attack. Among cold weapons, the spear is a long weapon, which is conducive to attack and is not conducive to hand-to-hand combat. Although the spear fighter dances a spear dazzlingly, sweeping, stabbing, stabbing and slashing fiercely, the fish fighter is extremely nimble, and every time there is danger, he always avoids the spear at the critical moment, or swings the spear with an arc shield.

After dozens of rounds, the spear fighter slowed down in swinging his spear.

It was a steel spear about two meters long and five centimeters in diameter, and even if the spear body was hollow, it would weigh more than twenty kilograms. Although the spear fighter is tall and strong, and his strength is amazing, the continuous swing of the spear to attack is far more physical consumption than the constantly dodging fish fighter.

The spear fighter's speed slowed down, and the fish fighter turned from defense to attack.

The short sword of the fish fighter is only two feet long, and the length of the sword body is at most one and a half feet after removing the hilt, which is similar to the jungle machete used by special forces, and is a sharp weapon in hand-to-hand combat. The nature of the weapon determines the main attack method of the fish fighter, that is, to approach the enemy before attacking.

In the blink of an eye, the spear fighters who were still attacking before retreated one after another.

The scene reversed, the VIPs became excited, and the venue suddenly shouted slowly. The VIPs who had placed heavy bets on the fish fighters began to cheer loudly, the VIPs who had placed their bets on the spear fighters began to shout curses, and the VIPs who did not bet on the two looked like they were gloating.

Retreating to the edge of the arena, the spear fighters were blocked by barbed wire and had no way back.

The fish fighter was already approaching, the curved shield on the left side of the body, blocking the spear's thrust direction, and the short sword was close to the right edge of the curved shield, aimed at the spear fighter's unobstructed body.

The winner is about to be revealed!

Just when everyone thought that the spear fighter was certain to die, the situation changed abruptly. When the fish fighter stabbed out the short sword, the spear fighter suddenly raised his spear, flicked the short sword lightly with the tail of the spear, and at the same time turned his body sideways, his left arm drew a beautiful arc in the air, and the small round shield on his wrist hit the back of the fish fighter's head. Although protected by a helmet, the fish fighter was not injured, but he could not stop his steps, and the short sword went straight forward, piercing the barbed wire. The fish fighter first tried to draw his short sword, and by the time he suddenly sensed the danger and turned around, the spear fighter had already pulled out the dagger stuck in the small round shield. With a flash of cold light, a stream of crimson blood spurted out of the fish fighter's neck.

All of this is only a few seconds.

The arena fell silent as the fish fighters fell to their knees with their hands around their necks and barbed wire.

At this time, the VIPs came to their senses.

In an instant, the venue was full of people, exclamations, cheers, and noises.

The spear fighter suffered only minor wounds, that is, on his side, a wound about twenty centimeters long was cut in the right rib by a short sword. The spear fighter pulled out his short sword stuck in the barbed wire, then took off the fish fighter's helmet, put the tip of the sword against the fish fighter's right shoulder blade, and looked at Campbell.

"Death-Death-Death......"

The Fish Fighter missed the perfect opportunity to kill the Spear Fighter, and with so many injuries that even the VIPs who had placed heavy bets on him couldn't think of a reason to keep him alive.

Campbell did not give a verdict on the defeated gladiators, as was customary in ancient Rome, but only nodded slightly.

The short sword stabbed and pulled, and a stream of blood spurted out, splashing the spear fighter's body. Immediately, the spear fighter raised his arms and shouted, a bloodthirsty monster alive.

Blood and carnage, like a spark, detonated the atmosphere in the stadium.

The VIPs stood up and applauded, and some of the girls rushed to the fence and threw flying kisses at the spear fighters, and a few even pulled down their tops and shook the two snow-white balls of flesh on their chests.

The spear fighter walked around the arena before exiting through the passage to treat his wounds.

Two masked staff members dragged away the fish fighter's body, and then four staff members entered and cleaned the blood from the ground.

"How's that, it's exciting, isn't it?"

Chu Tianjiang smiled, his expression was very contemptuous. "Mr. Campbell, is this the best gladiator? This kind of goods in front of me can't hold on for ten seconds. ”

"So, Mr. Yan is also a martial arts master?" Campbell obviously felt that Chu Tianjiang was bragging.

Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "We are people who come out and mingle, living on the head of a knife every day, and we don't have the real ability to live until now?" ”

Campbell smiled too, and there was a point. Not to mention anything else, with Chu Tianjiang's gambling skills, he must be a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the major casinos, coupled with his practice of not giving face to his opponent, he will definitely offend the casino, and it is only natural that he will be hunted down by the casino. As for Chu Tianjiang's current identity, Campbell also knows it. can be as famous as Zhang Xiaogang, Yan Wenbin is definitely not simple.

Seven more gladiatorial fights followed, each lasting ten minutes, and all of them were finished.

After the eighth gladiatorial fight, Campbell announced a half-hour break before the second round of gladiatorial fighting.

After saying goodbye to Chu Tianjiang, Campbell left. Chu Tianjiang had nowhere to go, so he didn't leave the private room. He noticed that the other VIPs had left the private room.

It's ten o'clock!?

Indeed, there are still a few minutes until ten o'clock.

Obviously, Nichol's guess was right, those VIPs were forced to take poison by Campbell, and now it was time to receive the antidote every day.

Nichole also thought of this, and left the private room on the pretext of going to the bathroom to touch up his makeup.

"Old Yan ......" Zhang Xiaogang walked over, his expression a little complicated.

"Lao Zhang, she's Maya."

Zhang Xiaogang was secretly startled and glanced at the woman on the platform.

Chu Tianjiang nodded, and said again: "I know what you want to say, and I also know that it is dangerous for Lu Dao to do this, but I have already thought of a way." ”

Zhang Xiaogang sighed and said, "It's not good to talk about it now, you have to think about it carefully." ”

Chu Tianjiang fell silent. It really can't be said too thoroughly now, and Zhang Xiaogang said this, obviously asking him not to act rashly. Chu Tianjiang knew that Zhang Xiaogang was an outsider, so he could see it more thoroughly and know more about the relationship, otherwise he wouldn't have said this. With Zhang Xiaogang's mind, he would definitely be able to guess the method that Chu Tianjiang came up with, but he still objected, indicating that Chu Tianjiang's method would not work.

What's the problem?

Chu Tianjiang was a little big, and thought about it again from beginning to end, but he couldn't find a loophole.

After a while, Nicol rushed back.

"What did you do?"

"Don't ask too much about women." Nichol leaned on Chu Tianjiang and wrote a few English words on Chu Tianjiang's ribs with his fingers.

Chu Tianjiang smiled knowingly, so he didn't ask any more.

The dignitaries did get together to receive the antidote from Judith, and some of the ladies also received the antidote. Obviously, Campbell controlled not only the VIP himself, but also the VIP family, and even the VIP entourage, ensuring that these powerful and powerful people did not dare to rebel.

Soon, Campbell returned, and the other VIPs returned to the private room.

Chu Tianjiang noticed that some of the VIPs did not return to the venue. Apparently, they had all left the nightclub, and their main purpose was to pick up the antidote.
