Commodus's face was indeed wonderful now, anger, fear, resentment, all kinds of negative emotions alternating on his face, and under the beating of the candle flame, his pale face looked extremely strange. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I didn't stop him! Could it be that Lucia told me a lie, no way! Quintas's report is that all the soldiers who went to ambush the valley are dead! Does this mean that someone rescued him? ”

Because Lucia didn't mention that Season End was alive, Season End was still a dead man in the minds of Quintas and Commodus.

Besides, even if he knew, he wouldn't have linked the rescue of Maximus to the end of the season at all, after all, who could kill dozens of Praetorian Guards? This is simply not something that can be done by man, not even the bravest man in their history!

"But who has such great power to save him! Could it be those parliamentarians!? ”

"It must be! Only these old things who are not willing to rot will do this. ”

As Commodus continued to mutter, his face gradually calmed down, except for a pair of gloomy eyes, revealing the same grim look as the night he killed his father.

"I can't resist the legions led by Maximus at all, it seems that I need to use some extraordinary means, even if I am cruel and my reputation falls to the bottom and stinks, I will keep my Caesar position!"

"As long as Maximus is dead, hehe, as long as he is dead......"

Like a gambler in his last fight, Commodus said coldly and walked out of the main hall, tonight, destined to be sleepless.

……

There was not a single noise in the ranks of thousands of people, only the sound of footsteps as they walked rapidly, which broke through the dawn and made the ground tremble.

Maximus put on his general's armor and a dark red cloak, and as he rode on his warhorse, his body rose and fell, throwing a beautiful wave behind him.

Glancing at the route ahead, Maximus looked at Ji Mo next to him, to be precise, at the wound on Ji Mo's arm, and his brow furrowed deeply.

"Why did you make a cut in your arm?"

The voice was low, drifting into the ears of the end of the season with the wind, making the end of the season slowly retreat from his own world.

Shaking his head, he said, "It's out of the way, I just want to verify something!" ”。

To explain, Ji Mo looked at the wound that had stopped bleeding, and under Maximus's tooth-sour expression, Ji Mo took out a tactical knife and gently cut the wound again without anyone else noticing, so that the wound returned to a bleeding state again.

Maximus shook his head and said nothing, he knew that there must be a reason for doing this at the end of the season, and besides, after he knew that he had magical abilities, he was calm when he saw the wound.

"There is indeed a strange feeling that comes from the ability to heal itself, and although it comes and goes, it will slip away if you don't pay attention, but it is certain that my feeling is not wrong!".

"It's only when I'm injured that that strange feeling appears, and in order to catch that feeling, self-harm is really inevitable in the future!"

Muttered, Ji Mo smiled bitterly, he was bent on grasping the wound to recover from the feeling, because he felt that as long as he caught that thing, it would be very useful to him!

Time passed little by little, and when it was getting dark, at the end of the season they stopped dozens of miles from Rome, and after a day's journey, the soldiers were inevitably tired.

Rest for the night, refresh yourself, and tomorrow will be the time to make your way to Rome.

As for being discovered by Commodus?

Hehe, he should have known it a long time ago, but his Praetorian Guard, in terms of numbers and combat ability, is not comparable to the battle-experienced Felix Legion.

As long as they dare to come, then they will be sent to death early, and there will be no surprises at all.

……

Standing at the top of the palace, listening to Quintas's report behind him, Commodus' face was as grim as ever.

"Since they are here, are you ready to be told?" Commodus turned around, saw the hesitation on Quintas's face, smiled grimly, walked up to the other party, smiled lightly, his eyes flashed, and asked, "Are you done?" ”。

"It's done, but it's inevitable that there will be some ...... in doing so"

"It's nothing, it's either him or I, at this time, is the means still important? Hehe! ”

"Yes...... My Majesty! Quintas lowered his head and looked at the figure of Commodus, and a trace of regret rose in his heart that he had chosen Commodus in the first place.

The next day, when the first rays of morning light pierced the dim sky, Felix's legions, led by Maximus, were already lined up in a neat formation and slowly marched towards Rome.

However, to everyone's confusion, until they reached the city walls of Rome, they had not encountered a single enemy, not even a single enemy on the walls.

Standing at the city gates, looking at the wide open gates, smelling the unusual smell, Maximus touched his chin and muttered, "What's going on?" ”。

Ji Mo squinted, guessing if this was a trap or not, and then said, "I'll go in with some cavalry and investigate!" ”。

Maximus nodded and admonished, "Be careful! ”。

Wearing a helmet that would cover his face, the end of the season rushed in with dozens of cavalry at the gate of the city.

However, no one was found, and still not a single enemy was found. Even the civilians in the city seemed to smell something unusual, and only a few brave people poked their heads through the windows of their homes to watch the cavalry rushing in.

After thinking for a while, Ji Mo said: "Separate, investigate carefully, and pay attention to safety!" ”

"Yes!" The cavalry responded and departed.

A quarter of an hour later, the cavalry came to the end of the season one after another, saying that they did not find any danger, but the last few cavalrymen brought news.

"All the Praetorian Guards are confined to the palace? Any idea what's going on? Ji Mo asked.

"The other party threw this from the palace wall!" As he spoke, one of the horsemen handed a roll of parchment to the end of the season.

At the end of the season, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, not to say anything, Commodus, who was cornered, did have the heart of an unscrupulous gambler.

However, it also allowed the end of the season to complete its own task.

"What an unexpected result!" With a mutter, Ji Mo handed the parchment to the hand of the previous cavalryman and said, "Give it to the general!" ”。

"Yes!" The cavalry answered and hurried away.

Glancing at the remaining cavalry, the end of the season arrived: "Others are on alert!" ”

"Yes!"
