[Human Record: Gladiator (2)]: At the funeral of his father Junius Ral, Junius Brutus ordered three slaves to fight naked with only a short sword in his hand.

..............................................................

And the main culprit of Assas's becoming a slave is the master of this gladiatorial arena, Bruno.

The mortality rate in the gladiatorial arena is extremely high, and even a veteran who never dies in a hundred battles does not dare to guarantee that he will survive three rounds in the gladiatorial arena.

As the strongest country on the mainland, the Kingdom of Mycenae has an unshakable supremacy, and the surrounding neighbors such as Okaria, Thebes or Minos do not dare to take the initiative to invade, since this generation of king Agamemnon succeeded to the throne, Mycenae has not been attacked by war for 50 years.

War was the fastest way to obtain slaves in history, and the Mycenaean kingdom, which no one dared to invade, gradually faced a shortage of slaves.

In recent years, the slave trade has become the most prosperous industry in Mycenae, and the number of slaves imported into Mycenae from various countries on the continent every day is incalculable.

Humans are more interested in watching their own kind fight bloody gladiatorial battles than beasts or monsters that have been conquered and enslaved by humans. However, the high attrition rate of the gladiatorial arena determined that it could not be carried out by buying slaves at a high price, and Bruno, as the owner of the gladiatorial arena, inherited the "prestige" of his ancestors and carried out more cruel and ruthless deeds.

That is to collude with the powerful in charge of the army to carry out inhumane massacres in the border area far from the city of Telion.

Through the slaughter of some of the more backward and remote villages and towns, the old people were killed on the spot, women and children were sold as slaves to other countries, and the men in the prime of life were secretly transported directly to the gladiatorial arena to be sacrificed for the pleasure of the magnates.

Once the son of Orion near Mount Pylos, Assas's entire village was set on fire overnight, his parents were killed for their fierce resistance, and he himself was transported to the arena as slaves.

Perhaps it was the desire for revenge that sparked Assas's potential, and at the age of 17, he survived three consecutive battles and grew up in the process of fighting other slaves, and after two years, Assas, who had survived nearly 30 fights, finally had 10 horsepower, equivalent to the existence of a junior officer.

By chance, Arthur Evans discovered his talent. According to the Mycenaean kingdom's laws regarding slaves and gladiators, only gladiators who survived 99 fights were granted the status of slaves.

And Arthur Evans, although he was a prince, could not change the fact that Arthas was a slave, so he could only buy it in the name of a servant, so Assas was still branded with the shame of a slave at this time.

The great nobles Bruno and Arthur Evans, who were the masters of the gladiatorial arena, also occupied a special platform, which shows that the people who were on the other platforms at this time must be the big men of the kingdom.

Kratos looked at the platform next door and said to Arthur Evans in a playful tone, "If I'm not mistaken, that guy is your own brother." ”

Arthur Evans muffled, "Kratos, my brother is your brother, are you going to have a super friendship relationship with my eldest brother?"

Kratos unceremoniously gave Arthur Evans a firm middle finger, and the latter also fought back with two fingers, and his expression looked as disgusted as he could, as if they were not talking about some blood relative, but about an extremely obscene strong X prisoner.

At this time, the audience suddenly erupted in a burst of excited cheers, that is, the fence of the gladiatorial arena was opened again, and the gladiators who were about to fight each other stepped into the arena.

Seeing the monster entering the field, Arthur Evans said in surprise: "It's actually a two-headed dog, Bruno seems to have lost his blood today." ”

Kratos, who was keenly aware of the hidden meaning of Arthur Evans' words, hurriedly asked, so Arthur Evans pointed to the location on the platform opposite them and explained: "Frix, the Kingdom Inspector, has recently sniffed the secrets behind the slaves, so they have proposed a law to increase the identity verification of slaves, and the Inspector Fricks is the main person in charge of this proposal. ”

One of Agamemnon's greatest deeds was to open the way for the common people of the Mycenaean kingdom to make their own proposals to the state, and the Ombudsman was an official set up by Agamemnon to be responsible for the transmission of speech.

While this approach still did not avoid the oppressive reality of slavery, it was the beginning of an unconventional vision in the Peloponnese.

It is clear from Bruno's approach that once this law is passed, his illegitimate access to slaves will inevitably be interrupted. So he wanted to win the interest of Inspector Fricks by showing the most bloody and violent side of the gladiatorial arena, thus cutting off the realization of this proposal directly on the way of words.

The huge two-headed dog stood in the middle of the field, nearly two people tall, and a pair of hideous and terrifying heads were imprisoned by the bronze chain at this time, unable to break free, and could only keep roaring, and the vertical pupils of the four monsters flashed with bloodthirsty light.

Amid the frantic roars of countless people, the floodgates on the other side of the arena finally slowly opened, and a total of 100 ragged slaves were driven out in terror.

These slaves, young and old, carried rudimentary weapons such as wooden spears, small wooden shields, and bows and arrows, which were as ridiculous as toys in the hands of children compared to two-headed dogs that exuded boundless ferocity.

The two-headed dog is the gatekeeper of the entrance to the underworld, the ancestor of the monsters, Typhon, and the son of the serpent monster Ekedna, the son of Cerberus.

At the beginning, Kratos encountered Typhon in the desert was only one of thousands of clones, and his strength was only one-ten-thousandth of the main body.

But it is such a doppelganger, but even Kratos who has mastered the power of hunger can only flee in panic, and the horror of his strength can be seen.

As the descendant of the ancestor of the monster, Typhon, the horror of Cerberus is also widely legendary, and it is certain that the strength is definitely above 10,000 enemies, and at least it is a terrifying monster that demigods can fight.

On the platform where the two-headed dog was, the crown of Rui Hoyana that was placed on it quickly changed, and one of the petals quickly curled up, and was stimulated by the two-headed dog's breath from the underworld of hell, and the petals turned sickly gray-black.

The two-headed dog is a monster that has inherited the meager blood of Cerberus, and its number and population in the underworld are extremely large, and its individual strength is also more than 10 horsepower, and it requires a fully armed officer-level human warrior with a bronze weapon to be able to match it alone.

But it was such a terrifying monster that it used 100 civilians of uneven strength and only a pitiful wooden weapon in their hands to fight against it.

The result is already predictable, either these civilians will be mercilessly slaughtered, or at best, they will be wiped out.

At this time, a man dressed as a manager led several attendants in cheap, but extremely neat and clean burlap clothes into the platform where Kratos and the others were.

The attendant held a closed wooden box with a bronze lock, while the man dressed as a manager held a parchment roll and a quill and asked Arthur Evans if he wished to participate in the bet.

There is no doubt that gambling is an indispensable part of the gladiatorial arena, whether it is a wealthy nobleman or a poor commoner, they will also take out their coins in this bloody arena full of primitive human desires.

Just as Arthur Evans was about to bet on the two-headed dog side as a matter of course, Kratos suddenly stopped him and asked a very abrupt question: "Whose man is Bruno?"

Arthur Evans was stunned for a moment, and his eyes subconsciously glanced to his side, while the manager and several attendants all bowed their heads, as if they didn't hear at all.

Arthur Evans thought for a moment, and then lowered his voice uncertainly: "Bruno is illegally hunting civilians, and needs the support of the nobles who control the army, and unfortunately, the most powerful executioner in Telian City is my savage big brother. ”

Kratos nodded knowingly, and without saying a word, he snatched the money bag that Arthur Evans was about to hand out, tossed it and weighed it, and then threw it into the box in the squire's hand.

"If you want to bet, you have to bet on the 100 slaves with the highest odds, Prince Arthur Evans. ”

Arthur Evans watched in amazement as the quill flew across the parchment, and before he could react, the other party had respectfully retreated and quickly moved to the next platform.

"Oh Kratos, do you know what 60 minutes of gold represents? That's all my money, and if I lose it all, it means we're all going to be living slaves this year, and Tanali won't let me go to her bed again...... Oh Assas, you should go and get ready now, what is going on in the relief warehouse of Tylian City. ”

60 Mingna gold is equivalent to about 300,000 RMB in the previous life, although this is a huge amount of money that cannot be ignored for ordinary people, but for the prince of the most powerful kingdom on the continent, this is actually a whole year's expenses It seems quite shabby, which shows how embarrassing Arthur Evans's situation in Mycenae is at this time.

Moreover, Arthur Evans did not come to the gladiatorial arena for the blood-boiling fight, but simply heard that there would be an absolute slaughter today, so he rushed to bet with his entire wealth, just to be able to increase some of his meager fortune slightly.

Kratos walked straight out of the platform and said without looking back, "My brother, if I were you, I'd hurry up and calculate how much gold Bruno would give us if we win." ”
