Chapter 172: Ugliness and Beauty
Soon Commodus made a circle, and the guards who followed him came to the front row with each of the gladiators who had been hit, and there were quite a few of them, adding up to almost a hundred.
"Each of your teams has been selected, go to the gladiatorial training ground on the side to pick a few today, and the officials of the city hall will cooperate with you, and there are substitutes for your teammates." One of the guards announced loudly: "As for those who are chosen, you don't have to participate in this competition. ”
Some gladiators and officials who led the team quit, why? The master of our team was picked by you like this? Even the champion is gone, it's a fart!
The officials did not dare to object, but there was never a shortage of stunned youths, and a gladiator from the Macedonian province standing in the front row asked: "Why?" There's our captain in there, and it's so unfair to us without him! ”
At this time, Commodus had not gone far, and when he heard the gladiator's question, he turned back and said, "They are too ugly to be worthy of playing in my 10th anniversary tournament!" ”
Hearing this answer, everyone was stunned, it was the first time that I, Nima, had heard this kind of reason!
Is it wrong to be ugly? In Commodus's view, there is a mistake, so is it wrong to question his decision? It's clear that there is not only fault, but also sin!
Ignoring the anger of all the chosen ones, Commodus waved his hand, and as soon as the guard drew his short sword, he plunged into the poor gladiator's belly, so suddenly that the well-trained gladiator did not react, and he did not expect that his own question would lead to death.
Zhao Yu was about to move, now he was in the gladiatorial arena, and there were more than seven hundred angry gladiators, who seemed to be reckless, but the hundreds of heavily armed guards, and Commodus, who had already gone away, made him dispel this idea, there were too many people, he couldn't kill with one blow, he was the one who died, and he couldn't hope that the gladiators he didn't know would rebel with him.
After that, they went back to their respective homes, and although the ugly gladiators were dismissed, it might be a good thing for them, at least they didn't have to worry about their lives.
Zhao Yu's team was singled out of six people, and the number was among the best, because Carthage was located in North Africa, and most of the slave gladiators were blacks, black people from 2,000 years ago. The ugly one really looks like an orangutan.,Fortunately, the young rice bucket looks good.,Didn't be picked out.。。
As the leader of the team, Zhao Yu took the rice bucket and Alsace, as well as the leading officials of Carthage, to the gladiator training ground designated by Commodus in the afternoon to select substitute slaves, but even more strange things appeared, the substitute gladiators prepared by Commodus were actually two hundred women!
This is difficult, it's not that Zhao Yu looks down on women, but that women's combat effectiveness is really inferior to that of men, and Zhao Yu has never seen a female gladiator until now!
Of course, it's not that there are no female gladiators, but women generally only fight with women, which belongs to the kind of competition that is not strong but makes people happy to watch.
And the average powerful woman is also the kind of five big and three thick, so that the physical fitness can barely keep up with the man, and she looks slender and beautiful? Sorry, this is not a TV series, people's wrists are thicker than your thighs, how to fight?
So seeing these more than 100 female gladiators, Zhao Yu's face turned green. (Picked some away)
You don't have to think about it to know that Commodus would rather compete in a weak chicken and a beautiful woman, rather than an ugly man!
Poor Arthas scratched his head anxiously, he looked at all the female gladiators in a while, and none of them could enter his eyes, all of them were thin arms and legs: "I say, what is our Emperor His Majesty thinking?" Can these women fight. ”
"I don't know what to think, but these women are quite eye-catching." The rice bucket told the truth.
"Anyway, I don't expect them to contribute, just pick the good-looking ones and be cheerleaders!" Zhao Yu also wanted to open it, isn't it just six less team members? I didn't expect them either!
"Well, at least it will boost morale." Arthas also resigned to his fate, and besides, the other teams were the same, only three or four more on his side.
The three of them let go of their worries and carefully selected them, not to mention, the quality of these women is really good, I don't know if there is only one access condition before training: good-looking.
After some picking, six beautiful girls were selected, and the girls didn't have a good face for the three, they knew that they were disliked.
Back at the hotel, Zhao Yu called a meeting of all the gladiators, including the six girls, to get to know each other and discuss countermeasures by the way, the original strategy had to be changed.
"Let's welcome our newcomers!" After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding, the applause was very warm, mixed with some whistles, these animals teased the beauties: "Ahem, be serious, we will all be comrades-in-arms in the future!" ”
"First of all, I have to ask how strong you are." After reporting each other's names, Zhao Yu looked at the six beauties and explained, "There may be a time when you will appear later!" ”
"We've been practicing for years!" One of them, the most powerful female gladiator named Sylvanas, stood up and said, "I have participated in gladiatorial competitions many times, and technically speaking, I am no worse than you!" ”
All the women looked up proudly, they were also trained hard.
"How many years?" Zhao Yu asked in surprise, "Then how do you maintain this figure?" Why didn't it grow strong? ”
Hill carefully talked about their training methods, and Zhao Yu quickly understood, it turned out that their training was mainly biased towards skill and speed, and did not require much strength, that is, the legendary flower fist embroidered legs, which looked like bluffing, and the audience didn't think about watching their dragon fight, and they could be popular if they looked good!
"Trick! Here's the trick! It's not a fake handle! Hill looked at Zhao Yu's expressions and understood that they didn't think of anything good!
"I said, girl, the next game is really going to kill people, the opponent you have to face is no longer of the same level, look at these men around you, I doubt you can survive two rounds!" Zhao Yu decided to tell the truth, these women are all arrogant, maybe it will be bad if they are on the field, it is better to hit them first.
"Let's have a game!" Sylvanas said with a look of resentment.
Zhao Yu spread his hands: "You choose, choose whatever." ”
Hill is not stupid, he didn't pick a team leader, which means that Zhao Yu, who is the strongest, also excludes a few men who are too strong like a rice bucket, and among the rest, she clicked on Alsace because he is the most handsome.
"Are you sure?" Zhao Yu glanced at this stupid woman strangely, if he didn't count the equipment and didn't work hard, Arthas might be the strongest one.
"It's this little white face!" Hill said angrily: "Why, you won't be afraid, right?" ”
Everyone laughed.
