Joseph continued: "You probably never thought that I didn't take any of the three so-called 'strong pills' you gave. ”

"What 'Strongman'?" Sidullah retorted: "It's obviously the 'Great Tonic Pill'!" ”

"'Big Tonic Pill'?" Joseph smiled and said, "Good! As long as you take these three 'Great Tonic Pills', I will disappear from your face immediately if I haven't said anything today." ”

Sidullah looked at the small pill in Joseph's hand, and then at the corpse of the goalkeeper out of the corner of her eye, and suddenly her heart was filled with fear and conflict.

At this time, an earth-shattering thunderbolt surprised everyone.

After the thunder, some people whispered about the unusually sunny thunderbolt just now.

Because, in ancient times, when people knew little about natural phenomena, the "thunderbolt from the sky" was definitely an ominous omen.

Li Xiang just took advantage of this God-given opportunity and took advantage of people's ignorance to teach the arrogant and domineering Hidulla who had no one in his eyes, so he gave Oman a look.

Orman looked up to the sky and said: "Thunderbolt on a sunny day, angry people complain!" ”

Li Xiang said: "It is very obvious that it is because of the transgressions of some people that the gods are angry and are about to befall Rome. ”

I saw that everyone's faces changed drastically, and they all felt fear and panic.

Auman cooperated: "Isn't this 'a grain of rat poop, a bad pot of porridge'? Some people make mistakes, but everyone has to suffer the disaster? It's so unfair to us. ”

Li Xiang echoed: "'Fair'? Is Rome still fair? As he spoke, he looked at the athletic committee members and the referees.

The athletic commissioners and referees turned their faces sideways in shame.

Wang Biyao said to the committee members: "There are all human and physical evidence, can you still turn a blind eye? ”

The committee members did not know how much benefit they had received from Sidula, and besides, Sidula was still the "nominal leader" of the committee, which is the so-called, eating people softly, taking people short, and receiving favors from others, so they naturally had to eliminate disasters for others.

Therefore, the committee members still chose to remain silent.

Li Xiang thought to himself: You "old rivers and lakes" are still "panning for paste", and if you don't give you some color to see, you really don't take me seriously. Then he said: "What happened in the arena should have been handled by your aco-chariot committee, but now I find that your inaction has caused the wrath of the gods, and I can no longer stand idly by in order to prevent Rome from falling into disaster again." ”

Sidullah said, "Why do you say such things? ”

"By virtue of me, I am the spokesman of Augustus." Li Xiang immediately kicked Xidula with haughty eyes.

As soon as these words came out, their strength far exceeded the shock that the previous thunderbolt on the hearts of the committee members was.

After the committee members quickly exchanged glances, the executive committee members immediately changed their faces and said, "Eh! As a member of the competition committee, it is our duty to uphold the principles of 'fairness, openness and justice'. ”

The committee members nodded again and again, and said in unison: "Yes! Right! Right! ……”

Li Xiang said: "I don't want to hear high-sounding words, I want a fair result, and I want it now." ”

The executive member said, "So urgent? ”

"If you don't think you have the ability to deal with it impartially immediately, then I'll find someone who is capable to replace you, what do you think?"

The executive committee immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, no. ”

A huge contradiction was placed in front of the committee members, and to put it seriously, as long as Li Xiang said a word, it would definitely not only be a matter of losing the veil because of corruption, bribery, and favoritism, but also a serious question about the choice of survival or destruction.

The committee members quickly exchanged glances again, and through eye contact with each other, a tacit understanding was reached.

"The situation is stronger than people," and the only choice made by the committee members could only be to "give up the car to protect the commander" and keep themselves and give up Hildura for the time being.

This means that Sidullah was immediately removed from his position as chairman of the athletic committee; The Italian team was forcibly written off; In addition to a fine of 10,000 Sesters each, all the players on the team were banned for life; The coach was also banned from coaching for life; In order to curry favor with Li Xiang, the "emperor's spokesman", the committee members made a "reasonable" adjustment to the final score of the final, that is, the three goals scored by the Italian team were added to the Liberty team, and the Liberty team won 7:0.

All members of the Freedom Team worked together to lift the golden "Helios Cup" above their heads.

Glory and dreams have become reality at this moment.

What is more realistic than a dream, however, is the material reward.

Since the Liberty team set a new record for the number of goals scored in the final and won 7-0, the prize money was also increased by 7 times, from the original 100,000 dinaris to 700,000 dinaris, which is equivalent to about 45 million yuan.

Li Xiang even won 10 million Orris because of the Liberty team's victory, which is equivalent to about 22 billion yuan.

Li Xiang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, even if he dreamed in the past, he never thought that he would have the opportunity to come to ancient times, and what he didn't expect was that the "first pot of gold" he dug in ancient times would be through gambling.

Of course, the gamblers who gambled their lives and property on the Liberty Team also got a thousandfold reward at this moment.

For a time, a new term gradually became popular in the city of Rome - "nouveau riche", that is, the new nobility.

And these so-called "upstarts" are all people who are inextricably linked to the Liberty team.

Nowadays, as soon as the stock of such and such a company is listed, thousands of wealth "upstarts" will be created immediately.

And Wang Baguio, who was originally unknown and was once mistaken by the Romans for a Hun slave girl, naturally became a "star coach" invited by many teams at a high price.

However, Wang Baguio was not moved by the wealth, and rejected them all one by one.

Think about it, Wang Baguio's father is the emperor of the Great New Dynasty, and the wealth of the whole country is in his hands, so he cares about the little money given by the Romans.

***

From the moment the "Helios Cup" was lifted by the players of the Liberty Team, the slaves began to run to tell each other, spreading the good news of the Liberty Team winning the championship all over the streets.

The slaves who received the news all cheered and celebrated the impending freedom in their own ways.

After getting Octavian's approval, Li Xiang issued an announcement to everyone in Caesars Square as Octavian's spokesman.

"From now on, slaves in Rome will no longer be the personal property of their slave owners, they will no longer be forced to work by slave owners, and they will be free from now on."

Hearing this, all the slaves could not suppress the excitement in their hearts, and they all seemed ecstatic.

The slave owners, on the other hand, frowned.
