The situation gradually calmed down, few people paid attention to and talked about Qin Dong's killing of more than 800 people, the day of going to the gladiatorial arena finally came, Qin Dong even had some expectations in his heart, he wondered if he had a bloodthirsty impulse hidden in his heart.

Not long after sitting in the water dungeon and eating the hard bread that was difficult to swallow, the big iron door of the dungeon was opened, and the neat footsteps made the ground tremble a little, and Qin Dong instantly judged that at least two hundred people had come.

The sound of the friction of the armor because of the movement, as well as the sound of the collision of weapons and armor resounded throughout the dungeon, a team of neat armor soldiers stood in the corridors of the entire dungeon with weapons in hand, and then divided into two from the middle, several tall sergeants led by a general walked to the door of the water prison, and the cell head hurriedly followed and opened the door of the water prison at the signal of the general.

The general stood at the door of the water prison and shouted, "Qin Dong, it's time to go to the gladiatorial arena!" I hope you don't embarrass us! ”

Qin Dong got up from the chair in the middle of the water dungeon and stretched his body, and the people outside only heard a series of crackling sounds from the bones of his whole body, it was self-evident how strong he was.

He jumped up from his chair and jumped into the water, and the dirty water of the dungeon splashed up, and a large splash of water fell on the sergeants outside the cell door, "Ah-" Those sergeants were attacked by a sudden splash of water, and there was a big chaos, and the general thought that Qin Dong was going to burst out, and immediately screamed: "Close the dungeon, be on guard, everyone be on guard!" ”

After the splash was gone, Qin Dong walked out of the cell with knee-high dirty water, looking down at the Roman general, who was only the height of his chest. He joked in an extremely rough voice: "Cute child, don't be afraid, as long as you are honest." The brave and invincible Eastern Warrior Qin Dong will not hurt you, now you can lead the way! ”

The general's face instantly swelled into the color of pig liver, but when he saw Qin Dong's huge and terrifying body, he really couldn't muster up the courage to refute, so he had to take a few steps back and wave his hand.

A soldier came up with a tray at the signal of the general, only to see that on the tray was a helmet-like object, which looked like a hoop behind it. In front is a mask.

The general pointed to the iron hood on the tray and said, "Okay, respected Qindong warriors, follow the requirements above." You must wear this and not take it off during a duel, or you will be put on a hood that you will never be able to remove unless your head is cut off! ”

Qin Dong said in an extremely beastly wheezing voice, "You'd better not yin me. If let me find out that you are in the shade of me. I'm going to tear you to shreds! ”

When the general heard such a ferocious voice, his face was so shocked that he said again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare, incomparably revered warriors, extremely ferocious human god of war, no one dares to play tricks in front of you, your humble servant dares to guarantee with his life that this is just an ordinary mask!" ”

Westerners are different from Easterners. Easterners are accustomed to degrading themselves and exalting others as respect, whereas Westerners are accustomed to exalting others and degrading themselves as respect. Therefore, it is common to see Westerners speaking with such words and tones, first saying the honorific titles of others, and then speaking of their own as lowly, such as: Honorable and great king, or O almighty God, how your humble servant so-and-so.

Qin Dong stretched out his big fan-like hand and took the hood and looked at it for a while to make sure that there was no mechanism or anything like that, and then put it on his head, only exposing his eyes, nostrils and mouth on the outside, feeling that this thing was too comfortable, there was a cushion inside, and it was very breathable, and it would not feel awkward and suffocating after wearing it.

At this time, the general said: "Dear God of War, for the safety of my soldiers, we must also tie your hands with thick iron chains, but you can rest assured, for the convenience of your movement, we will no longer tie thick iron chains on your feet!" ”

Qin Dong's hands and feet were originally handcuffed with iron chains, adding up to dozens of catties, but this iron chain was not enough for Qin Dong to pull once, as long as he used a little force, this thin iron chain would break as soon as he pulled it, but Qin Dong had never pulled it, and the general also estimated that this very small iron chain could not trap Qin Dong, so he asked to tie his hands with thick iron chains to prevent him from being mad and hurting people.

Qin Dong moved his hands and feet, the chains on his wrists and feet rattled, and he stretched out his hand: "Tie it up, it's better to hurry, my patience is limited!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The general hurriedly waved his hand, and several armor soldiers immediately carried the thick iron chain and wrapped Qin Dong's arm three times before it was completed.

After the completion of the qiē, the general looked like a pug and respectfully invited Qin Dong to go out, Qin Dong strode towards the door of the dungeon first, the iron chain dragged on the ground and made a continuous crisp sound, looking at his expression like a prisoner in prison?

Under the custody of more than two hundred elite armor soldiers, Qin Dong walked out of the gate of the prison, and there were thousands of troops lined up in a neat phalanx outside, if it weren't for the fact that the dungeon couldn't hold so many people, it was estimated that there would be more than two hundred people just now.

Qin Dong was put into a very large prisoner car, the outside of the prisoner car was covered with a black cloth, in order to let there be light inside, leaving the side facing the horses uncovered, this prisoner car was made of strong wood, and it was new, in order to ensure the solidity of the wood on the prisoner car, in order to make the wooden pillars on the prisoner car not easy to be vigorously interrupted, under the arrangement of the officer, the entire prisoner car was drenched with water, every piece of wood was soaked with water, and the tension of the wood soaked in water was several times greater, and it was almost impossible to interrupt it with external force.

In order to prevent Qin Dong from escaping, several soldiers, under the command of the general, used iron chains to wrap the wooden pillars around the entire prisoner cart again, which can be described as layers of defense.

As soon as Qiē was ready, under the order of the general, thousands of troops escorted the prisoner cart to the gladiatorial arena, and it was already late at night, and the general specially chose this time to escort Qin Dong, because there were no pedestrians on the street, and there would be no traffic jams and the like.

The distance from the prison to the gladiatorial arena was a bit far, it took more than half an hour to arrive, and when the army arrived, the gate of the gladiatorial arena had been opened, the gladiatorial arena belonged to the royal family, and the people in charge of management were of course loyal to the royal family, and after receiving the emperor's order, the person in charge had already been waiting at the gate. He was required to keep Qin Dong's identity strictly secret, and even if the emperor didn't say it, he knew that Qin Dong's identity could not be made public. At least for the time being, it can't be made public, because after the public, you can only collect tickets, and it's basically impossible to win money by gambling.

The prisoner cart was pulled directly into the Colosseum, which was built in imitation of the Roman Colosseum, which was built in a slightly shorter time and could not be compared with the Roman Colosseum in terms of material, so it could not be compared with the Roman Colosseum in terms of scale and sturdiness.

The Colosseum covers an area of 20,000 square meters. It has a circumference of 527 meters and can accommodate 90,000 spectators. It was built after the conquest of Jerusalem by the Roman Empire to commemorate the great achievements of Emperor Vepasian. It is said that when the gladiatorial arena was opened. A total of 5,000 lions, tigers and other beasts and 3,000 slaves, captives, criminals and religious persecuted Christians were used for 100 days to perform. During the performance, the beast is released from the circle, and the man is driven to the stage. The beast will eat man. People have to fight, and there are very few survivors, and the cruelty is abnormal, and the tragedy is terrible. Sometimes it also engages in gladiatorial fights between people, which is even more cruel. A gladiatorial fight must be fought by the death of one of them, and if there is no ending, both must be put to death or eaten by wild beasts. Until 405 A.D. This extremely barbaric competitive game was stopped by the Western Roman Emperor Honorius.

The gladiatorial arenas of Rome were no longer free of such extremely barbaric competitive games. But in the gladiatorial arena of Constantinople, there was a growing trend of such performances, and many wealthy and noble people came from afar to watch, and some Romans even came to watch.

The Roman Empire achieved great success in architecture, especially in the construction of cities. The Roman slave-owning aristocracy was no longer satisfied with the construction of temples and sacrificial places as in the Hellenistic period, but focused on practical enjoyment. Their attention shifted to luxurious residential villas, arenas, public baths, and other facilities. For example, at that time, the toilet seat in the luxurious public toilet was made of marble, and there was a beautiful dolphin statue next to it, which shows the luxury of the time. The Hippodrome of Constantinople was built against the backdrop of the many monarchs of the Roman Empire who squandered their wealth, built on a large scale, and did everything they could to enjoy extravagant pleasures.

The real name of the Arena of Constantinople is the Hippodrome, which is not only a bloody battle between gladiators and wild beasts, but also horse races and other sports competitions, the entire arena is about 450 meters long and 130 meters wide, and can accommodate 100,000 spectators. The racetrack is U-shaped, with the Emperor's Stand at its eastern end. The Emperor's Stand has a passage that leads directly to the Grand Palace, which is only accessible to the Emperor and the rest of the Imperial Family. At its northern end, there are four gilded bronze horse carvings.

Bronze statues of other famous horses and chariots lined the track, and the racecourse was filled with statues of gods, emperors and heroes, among which the famous works include the statue of Hercules in Leucians, the statue of Romulus and Remus and the wolf, and the serpent column. On the inside of the track is a piece of the Obelisk of Thutmose III, a pink granite carved obelisk purchased by Theodosius the Great from Egypt in 390 AD and erected on the inside of the track. This obelisk was erected at the Karnak Temple in Luxor around 1490 BC, during the reign of Thutmose III. Theodosius the Great cut it into three pieces and shipped it back to Constantinople.

Horse races are held in the arena and many spectators participate in the racecourse, which is the center of social life in the city, and a large number of bets are placed on chariot races. Initially, four teams competed, each funded by a different party in the Senate, and a total of eight chariots (two chariots per team), each pulled by four horses, competed on the racecourse's track. These competitions were more than simple sporting events, but also provided a rare opportunity for the emperor and commoners to come together and hold political discussions at the racecourse.

The prisoner cart finally stopped, the black cloth on it was revealed, and then the soldier opened the door of the prisoner cart at the signal of the general, and the general came over with a groveling look and said with a smile: "Respected invincible warrior, the arena has arrived, this will be your home in the future, your humble servant believes that you will have a good time, at least you will not be too lonely here, there are many prisoners, slaves and untouchables for you to kill, you can show your unparalleled strength to the emperor and subjects of the empire here!" ”

Qin Dong had to admire that these foreign devils were no worse than the Chinese in terms of complimenting people, and when they heard it, they felt that they were superior to others.

At this time, an extremely unhappy voice said: "No matter who you are, you must be honest when you come to the noble Vlatu, otherwise you will have to suffer, hum, big man, did you hear it?" ”

A series of chain collisions sounded, Qin Dong turned around to take a look, and when he looked down, he saw a round Humpty Dumpty man looking up at him with a proud face.

"I'm rubbing, are you still nostrils facing the sky?" Qin Dong was very uncomfortable when he saw this guy's appearance, and kicked him in the knee without thinking about raising his foot.

"Ahh

The surrounding soldiers were all holding torches and could see this scene clearly, and more than a dozen soldiers on the spot couldn't help but turn sideways and vomit.

The general's face turned pale and looked at the corpse of Fratu, who was already bleeding intestines and internal organs on the ground, and saw Qin Dong as terrifying as the devil, "It's over, it's over, the murderous warrior, the invincible God of War, you accidentally killed the manager of the arena, he is a member of the royal family, this is in trouble!" ”

Qin Dong pursed his lips and said, "What's there to be afraid of, he's not an emperor, take this guy's body to feed the dogs, and kill the manager of the arena What are you afraid of?" Believe it or not, Lao Tzu even dared to kill the emperor? You go and report to the emperor and ask him to change to an honest manager, if the new manager still looks like a big man in front of me, I don't dare to guarantee that he will survive a day! ”

"Uh, invincible warrior, your humble servant doesn't dare, the villain is just a school official, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to see the emperor!" The general almost cried, and said in his heart that your old family is like this anyway, of course you don't have to be afraid of anything, killing one person is a criminal, killing ten people is a felon, killing a hundred people is a super felon, but killing a thousand people and killing 10,000 people is a male, killing 100,000 million people is a male in the male, and even the emperor doesn't dare to kill your old man lightly, but I'm different, I'm afraid of death!
