Volume 2 The Storm Chapter 40 The Altar of Glory and the Slaughterhouse

After Koichiro stepped on horseback.

Thea hesitated to go with her, and then she thought, 'Lord Ernest is going to Itina, and I'm going to be a good one, and I'm going to be a good one.' ’

So Xia didn't follow the horse, but just stood aside, frowning and hanging her head.

Hanichiro thought for a while, and for the sake of insurance, he said, "Xia, will you drive?" ”

"Huh? Yes, yes. ”

Thea looked up and replied inexplicably.

"Okay, then you return to the blood oath, take advantage of the night!"

Koichiro wiped the golden priest's handbell with a few traces of blood on his clothes, then handed it to Thea, "Give it to Lilith, and tell her about the beach." ”

"Hmm...... Why is that, seaside? ”

Thea's fox ears twitched a few times, then she nodded in agreement, and promised loyally, "Lord Ernest, Thea will definitely bring your words." ”

A horse, the neighing of the horse made the crowd unconsciously avoid a way, and Koichiro hurried to the landmark of his dream, the circular underground Colosseum.

The other pulled the remaining horse and struggled against the crowd.

Part company with.

'Your Excellency is a knight before the charge, and I am a loyal sentinel to deliver the message to you, so am I not counting you as fighting side by side?' I didn't protect my people that year, and I lost my family in the war, and I don't want to lose you again this time, Itina......

Thea's emotional tears could not stop dripping, and the wind wiped the tears on her delicate little face, and she wiped the salty tears on her face, and pulled the only remaining horse with great determination, and walked lonely out of the city.

--

The heat of the Eye of Horus kept coming, and Koichiro recalled the dream just now, and the route to his destination was already clear, but the strength of the brandy alcohol was still faintly attacking.

The horses' hooves galloped, and the cold night breeze in the town of Colum was like a knife cutting through the delicate skin, producing the pain of tearing small wounds, which made the mind no longer dizzy.

After about half an hour's journey on horseback, Koichiro came to a circular building with a towering faΓ§ade, on which were written several glittering golden typing, "Flavio Glory Field".

After riding around for most of the time, he finally saw the entrance to the narrow square tunnel, so Koichiro dismounted and tied his horse to the fence on the side.

"This is the Colosseum, and Itina and Timi are here, right?" A strong instinct made Koichiro resolutely move closer this way.

The gladiator-to-gladiator contest is a contest of strength, a game invented by the Aztec Empire of the Orc Nation and the reign of the previous Emperor Commodus Γ…le when the Aztec Nation failed to break away from the imperial dictatorship.

Legend has it that Commodus Auler was a die-hard gladiatorial enthusiast, and according to the Aztec Nation's historical collection, the former emperor Commodus loved to fight, and this absolute suppression of intelligence and strength brought his inner desire and sense of accomplishment to the peak!

Commodus Ole's life can be described as a side job as an emperor, and gladiator is a serious profession, and most of the time in the year is spent in the gladiatorial arena, either on the way to the gladiatorial arena or on the way to practice dueling.

But in the end, the last emperor, Commodus Ole, still failed to get the glory he wanted most - the golden belt that symbolized the glory of the Flavio gladiators, and was instead stabbed to death by an orc in the gladiator training room.

After the death of the emperor, the Aztec kingdom, which is now a suitable place for the orcs, not only preserved this gladiatorial arena tradition, but also developed through the gladiatorial arena into the form of human fighting, orcs fighting beasts, and beasts fighting each other.

Because in the country of orcs like Aztec, they prefer to watch and suppress the scenes of vicious beasts and monsters that they can't usually see, so there is now an entertainment place like the Colosseum.

"Itina and Timi haven't seen in the dream yet, standing on top of the round glory field, let's hope they are safe for the time being", Koichiro steadied himself and strode into the legendary Colosseum of Flavio, where cruelty and bloodlust coexist.

"Welcome, Guest, King and Glory with you! The entrance fee is 50 copper plates for the infield circle, and 35 copper plates for other seats, and the guests can choose at will! ”

A servant dressed as a sexy black bunny girl greets guests with a drink at the door with a smile on his face.

'King and glory? Can this be said to be in the spirit of the alliance? ’

Hanichiro disagreed with this beautiful remark, but without saying a word, he threw the 35 copper plate onto the tray that the bunny girl was holding.

50 copper plate can sit in the inner circle, you can watch the gladiatorial scene of the boiling blood of the beast more closely, it is said that there will be blood stains that are beckoned, animal teeth and other falling as souvenirs, just eat less than the price of 3 bowls of green onion egg noodles, which makes many enthusiastic spectators do not hesitate to pay more, hoping that they can sit in the position of the infield.

"Dala......"

The sound and weight of a pile of coins made Bunny Girl's heart flutter.

"Thank you for visiting! Please sit down as you like, this is your drink. The highlight of the night is worth looking forward to, it's the ...... of the gods," the bunny girl reached out and handed over a bloody red viscous drink.

Before he could finish speaking, Hangichiro didn't look at the flattering bunny girl on the side, he directly refused the drink with a bad smell and walked straight in.

Between the door and the Colosseum disc, a heavy black curtain was "intimately" hung, blocking the view from the outside.

Inside, strong candle flames burn on the four walls, bringing a hint of burning, illuminating the huge beast totem on the roof of the circular Colosseum, and the seats are also painted with strange beast imprints.

"It's a griffon's totem on top," Koichiro looked up, looking around in passing to try to find other entrances and exits.

The smell of blood in the arena was pervasive, and the orc man completely lost his usual gentlemanly demeanor, and vigorously slapped the railing in front of him, shouting loudly for the gladiators who were on the field.

Just as Koichiro found a remote position to observe the people in the field......

"Ahh Whoa, a Rush to Lao Tzu! ”

A furious cry almost pierced Koichiro's ears.

"Ah, damn it, this is a brain-piercing magic sound of ninety decibels?"

Hangichiro rolled his eyes, then plucked out his ears, and then moved away, away from the brightest suona man on the field.

As a result, the stadium erupted in bursts of cheers, shouting, and slapping the fence vigorously.

Koichiro feels that this kind of scene, as mentioned in a book called the rabble that I read before, when many people gather together, there will be a kind of group unconscious.

That is to say, when many people get together, it is not rationality but emotions that work together, and at this time, the collective decision-making IQ is not as good as that of one person.

When people come together, even the most powerful orator, an eloquent man like Cicero, cannot convince them completely, and they may not even listen.

The most powerful way is to shout a slogan or even a name, which is enough to arouse their whole emotions, like the name of Billenz that everyone shouts now.

'What is so appealing?' Koichiro followed the line of sight of the beast-eared suona man and saw the two gladiators fighting on the field.

The average gladiator didn't have any decent equipment, and the weapons in his hands were also very ordinary, only old weapons such as knives and short swords, and the better ones probably had a broken helmet, and some even went into battle shirtless, not to mention the armor.

But now it is the "strongest king" who won here last week, and the Colosseum record has created nine consecutive victories!

And the more streaks are created, the better protective gear will be issued by the Colosseum, and the current "King of Nine Victories" Birencz is far better and more shining than the outfit when he first entered the Colosseum.

He was dressed in gold-plated armor, with golden protective armor on his head, and the weapon in his hand was also a golden heavy sword.

As this luxuriously equipped gladiator took the stage, the atmosphere on the field boiled. People slapped the railings in front of them and shouted loudly.

All eyes were on this gladiator of Bilenz, and this moment was the glory of the gladiator alone.

At this time, the private talk of ill-intentioned was listened to word by word.

Someone next to him said disdainfully, "Heh, this kid used to belong to the Bildt family." ”

"The Bildt family? That's rich, oh hahaha! "The insolent laughter makes people unhappy.

"Rich fart! This family was ruined, became a lackey and rebelled, and was all killed by the girls in other countries. Another beast-eared man next to him joined the conversation.

"Hey, that's good-looking, dare to love the son of a rich businessman and have to spend his life here to earn living expenses......" The grinning rough man didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement.

"The son of the rich merchant has long since died, and only one daughter doesn't know where to sell it, Birenz was just a dog servant before, and the son of the rich merchant got him in ...... round."

This gladiator, after the defeat of the family, not only became a bet on other people's money, but also became a joke in the mouths of others, the Colosseum is a shrine for one man, a slaughterhouse for the many. Life is really difficult...... 'Koichiro is a little sorry, but at the moment he can't save so many people.

I saw Birenz swing his sword with a serious face, although the gladiators on the opposite side were not well equipped, but the people were really violent, like a heavy hammer, smashing over, at first, Birenz was a little unable to parry, holding the sword but retreating step by step.

After several struggles, he finally found the gap and took advantage of the equipment to defeat his opponent.

Birenz plunged his sword into his opponent's side, and the other gladiator, who had a desperate fight, struggled a few times before he stopped, blood dripping all over the ground.

The cheers rang out again, and Billens took off his golden helmet to enjoy the glory of his victory, but he was a little tired and just bowed deeply to the infield.

The gladiatorial fight just now was dangerous, but fortunately, nothing went wrong in the end.

"Can you survive......" Koichiro was almost observing, ready to get up and go backstage to see if there was any Itina.

"Roar...... Roar"

A huge iron cage rose in the center of the Colosseum, and a fierce lion waited for a long time, it slowly turned its head to stare at Birenz, who had just taken off his golden helmet on the field.

"Roaring ......"

The lion, who had been hungry for a long time, was no stranger to this kind of feast, and he walked unhurriedly to the field, and walked towards Bilenz, when suddenly his feet accelerated and pounced, and opened his mouth...... The lion's sharp teeth reflect white light.

"Knock-" The huge iron cage pilasters trembled as they were slammed.

"Next, the Battle of the Trapped Beasts! The betting timer begins! ”
