Chapter 138: Reversal
Both men in the center of the arena were panting violently, their chests heaving.
The battle has been going on for quite some time now, and the frenzied reaction of the spectators in the stands showed that they were happy with the fight.
With just a few simple temptations, Bach and Rufus immediately got into a fight.
Muscle to muscle, slash to split, the clashing of weapons and shields, blood and sweat flying, and the entire arena was filled with male hormones.
Until now, Rufus has to admit that he has underestimated the newcomer in front of him, and Bach may still be a little rough in terms of combat skills, which is also a common problem of newcomers, but this person has a natural sense of danger.
Every time he set a trap, he saw through it at the last moment, and the cunning Germans would use his trap against him in turn, as evidenced by the wound in Rufus's waist.
Bach's sword was so ferocious that it almost sliced through his bones, but after the referee called a halt to the inspection, it was announced that the fight could continue.
Rufus has long been accustomed to this.
This is the fate of gladiators, unless they are injured and can no longer move, or one side surrenders, the fight will continue.
Rufus was also used to fighting with injuries, but the wound in his waist did affect his next moves, especially the dodge, but fortunately Bach on the opposite side was not much better, and the latter was also stabbed in the calf by him before.
The two are now just back on the same page.
In the ensuing battle, both sides deliberately exploited each other's weaknesses, with Rufus forcing Bach to put more weight on the injured leg, while Bach forced Rufus to twist his waist constantly.
Blood slid down Rufus and Bach's thighs to his ankles, and then dripped onto the floor of the arena, brutal and bloody, and the scene stirred up the thousands of people present.
However, this frenzied atmosphere did not affect Rufus, he was still trying to stare at his opponent, the expression on Bach's face made Bruce's heart a little unhappy, not only because this newcomer was not nervous, but the most important thing was that Bach looked at him without any emotion, as if he was staring at a dead man.
Rufus is a little inexplicable, there will indeed be some gladiators in the gladiator school who fight each other for various reasons, and for the sake of attendance, the arena will deliberately stir up some grievances, but Bach has not been here for a long time, and he has been training in a closed field before, Rufus does not remember when he provoked the Germans.
But no matter what, he must accept the victory in today's battle.
Rufus said to Bach, "It's over, boy, I'm going to be serious, and if you don't want to die, remember to kneel down and surrender to me." ”
Bach grinned when he heard this, "So this is your last word?" ”
It was the trident in Rufus's hand that answered him, and the next moment Rufus really began to press on it as he said before, and the black scythe overcame the pain caused by the back injury with amazing willpower, and when it was clear that both sides had reached the limit of their bodies, he actually forcibly lifted himself back to a full state.
So the tide of battle began to change, tilting in favor of Rufus's side. It wasn't long before Bach was stabbed in the left arm and lost his round shield.
Seeing this, the supporters of Rufus immediately stood up, and the cheers came one after another.
In the audience, Makrus's face suddenly became very ugly, and he looked at Gabi on the side angrily, "What's the matter, didn't you tell me that Rufus is the most suitable person to be Bach's opponent in the opening game?" As a result, I only saw that he had been beaten by Rufus, if he only had this strength, how could we praise him as the successor of Sisnatus? Am I spending so much money to buy one of these wastes? ”
Gabi's expression is also a little strange, he has been in charge of Bach's training, and Rufus was also brought out by him back then, and he is very clear about both of them, the reason for this arrangement is that it has been carefully considered, not that Bach will win, but even if he wants to lose, he should not be so embarrassed.
"I ...... I don't know what's going on, but I can assure you that Bach's strength doesn't stop there, and I don't know why it's the way it is, what he's thinking, but deliberately losing this duel doesn't do him any good. ”
As the two spoke, the battle was drawing to a close, and the situation on the field was becoming more and more unfavorable for Bach, who lost his shield and became even more embarrassed, while Rufus was becoming more and more courageous, and the fishing nets in his hands were ready to go.
Finally, he waited for the moment when Bach's footsteps were completely scattered, Rufus grabbed the opponent's flaw and threw out the fishing net in his hand, but at the moment when the fishing net was taken off, he somehow had an uncomfortable feeling in his heart, and then he saw that Bach had nowhere to run before, and the whole person turned into a cheetah, dodging the shroud of the fishing net, and crashed directly into his arms.
Rufus tried to raise his armguard, but after all, he was still a step too late, and the next moment Bach had already rushed in front of him, and at the same time plunged the short sword in his hand into Rufus's neck, directly piercing the latter's throat.
The previous cheers from the stands were suddenly suffocated.
The audience was stunned by this sudden turn of events.
Blood poured out of Rufus's mouth, his eyes were full of horror and confusion, and he opened his mouth to say something, but all he could do was make a ho-ho sound of unknown meaning
But Bach knew what Rufus wanted to ask, and leaned into the latter's ear, "You wonder why I killed you?" It's very simple, I checked your resume, five years ago, you participated in the war against us, and you must have slaughtered a lot of my people, so now you should pay off the debt, even if I can't kill you on the battlefield again, we can still meet in the arena, right? ”
Rufus's eyes flashed with a look of remorse, not that he regretted that he joined the army, but that he regretted that he didn't know enough about Bach before, otherwise even if he would lose this battle, as long as he admits defeat in time, he can still save his life.
The audience was unaware of the conversation between the two, and after a brief silence, new cheers erupted.
Except for the person who bet on Rufus who hugged his head in pain, the vast majority of the rest were watching the excitement, seeing that Bach won the reversal through a wonderful play, and immediately gave applause and screams to the Germans, as for Rufus, who fell in a pool of blood, it won't be long before no one remembers him anymore.
Makruz in the stands immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that had been hanging before was put back in his stomach, although Rufus's accidental death made him feel a little painful, but in comparison, he was still more in Bach, the star of tomorrow, besides, this is an arena, and it is normal for a dead person to die.
Only Gabi seemed to think of something, frowned, he probably knew why Bach's performance was so unbearable before, the Germans were obviously using this performance to paralyze Rufus, seeking a chance to kill with one blow, not giving the other party the option of begging for mercy and admitting defeat, and even deliberately selling injuries a few times.
But after all, he won the duel, and Gabby only warned Bach with his eyes in the end.
