Chapter 96. Gladiators (19)

"Are you sure he's the Nightmare?"

Returning to his seat, Su Qin couldn't help but ask out loud. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"I'm not sure, I guess" Ignoring Su Qin's narrowed eyes of contempt, Taylor leaned out and looked at the side of the passage where Su Qin was sitting: "It's coming"

"What's coming?"

Su Qin also turned his head to look, and there was a sound of scolding and pushing in his ears, and from the shadow of the passage over there, a thin man wearing a large helmet walked out, and after him, several men wearing the same large helmet and only a pair of shorts walked out one after another.

The guards at the door who were responsible for handing out weapons stopped them one by one with their arms, and then stuffed the short daggers into their hands, and then began to drive them towards the iron gate, and after they all walked out of the passage, Su Qin found that these men who didn't look like gladiators at all in size were all wearing helmets of the same style, and there were as many as ten of them, but that helmet always felt that something was not right.

"Hiss"

"Rocky! Be honest! ”

"Hahaha"

The gladiators in the waiting room burst into laughter, and Rocky stretched out two large hands to his temples, blocking the view to the left and right, and then shook his head and looked around with his eyes wide open, causing everyone to laugh even more.

Beside Rocky was the dagger that had caused laughter and warning from the guards at first, and the foul-spirited guy had just placed the dagger across the calf of one of the men as the helmeted men walked by, on the calf below the knee, but he had not placed it there suddenly, but when he was still about a meter away from the man who had hit.

At first, Su Qin was a little strange, but the problem was that the man who had been tricked really walked over step by step like a blind man, allowing the short dagger to leave a bloody mark on his calf before making a painful sound.

And at this time, looking at Rocky's funny appearance, Su Qin made it clear that the giant helmet on the heads of these men was definitely problematic, it was a lantern on the head, covering the neck and pressing directly on the shoulder, first of all, such a design was already very unreasonable, and it was impossible to effectively rotate the helmet by turning the head or something, not to mention that this helmet only had a mesh hole on the front.

In this design, the wearer's field of vision is limited to the height of the part in front of them, and if you want to look left and right, you can't just twist your neck, you have to twist your shoulders and body together, and you can't be flexible, or rather, this design is to make them inflexible.

Thinking of Taylor's unexpectedly long-awaited appearance, Su Qin immediately began to scan back and forth among the ten people, and sure enough, he found the thinnest man among them, judging from his figure, he was very similar to one of the male slaves that Paine showed Taylor last night.

"Is this the price of not being able to pass the first stage?"

If you fail in the test on the first day, then your identity will be transformed into a slave, and after being humiliated in every way, you will be put on this kind of helmet and sent to the arena to fight.

There was silence outside the iron gate for a while, and I vaguely heard someone talking, presumably it should be the mayor of Lexa, but I couldn't hear it clearly, and after he finished speaking, the entire gladiatorial arena became noisy again, and all kinds of screams and roars sounded again.

At this time, the ten male slaves had been driven to the iron gate, many of them had probably never fought, and with the restriction of helmets, many of them had trembling calves, and behind them were four guards, and among them was a burning fire, a total of eight black wooden sticks of one meter three or four lengths were inserted in it, and the tips were burned red, but the tops of these wooden sticks were not tied with oilcloth like torches.

The shouts in the audience grew louder and louder, and the four guards each picked up two black wooden sticks that were still burning at the top, and then stuck one of the torches into the other pot of sand, and the flame on the top was immediately extinguished, leaving only the residual flame at the tip.

In the screams of the gladiators in the waiting room, the iron gate ...... It's on.

"Let's go! You shit! ”

One of the guards who took the lead roared, and the extinguished wooden stick in his right hand stabbed directly into the back of the last male slave, and the sudden burning sensation made the male slave scream, and instinctively rushed forward, coupled with the guard's shout, and soon, the entire team of ten people poured out.

It's like a driven beast.

On the opposite side of the iron gate, there was also a team of ten, except for the shape of the helmet, nothing else, all of them were a pair of shorts, a short dagger, and there were also four guards behind them.

"Let's go and see"

Without saying anything, Taylor pulled Su Qin to the iron gate.

Driven by those guards, the two groups of ten people reluctantly approached each other, and then finally met at a certain moment!

With only short daggers and no experience in fighting, they began to wield daggers indiscriminately after contact, because they could only see the front, they often caught a target and stabbed indiscriminately, but the problem was that there were twenty people here, and there were guards with high-temperature wooden sticks stabbing around the perimeter, ensuring that these twenty people were always crowded together, and the team at the beginning was distinct, and it became chaotic in just a few seconds.

When you stab the person in front of you, the person next to you may bump into you, or suddenly hit you from an unknown direction, and the sound from the audience has changed from the first Rocky scream to a cry of laughter, surrounded by wooden sticks stabbed by the guards from time to time, and soon, the so-called team of ten people disappeared completely, and the people of the same team also began to kill each other, turning into a melee of more than ten people.

One fell one after the other.

When there were only about half of the people left, the eight guards around them directly replaced the wooden stick that was still faintly burning in their other hands and stabbed those poor people again!

Confusion, roaring, falling to the ground.

Each of them was hit more than once, because it was a short dagger, unless it was pierced deeply, or it could continue, just like those male slaves who fell to the ground, most of them were actually only seriously injured and not dead.

There are fewer and fewer people on the field, less and less......

"Looks like that guy is going to make a move"

Taylor said suddenly, this time he didn't need to prompt Su Qin to know who he was talking about, so he hurriedly looked at the position of the high platform, only to see that the middle-aged and thin nobleman was talking to the Lexa mayor, I don't know what he was talking about, after he said a few words, Barnaughton on the other side also joined the discussion, but it seemed that Barnaulton didn't agree very much, and soon began to argue with the middle-aged and thin nobleman.

But in the end, he was pressed by the Lexa Municipal Magistrate and stopped, and then he looked at Barnaughton and said, Banaulton immediately turned into a flattering appearance, seeing this scene, Su Qin naturally understood that Barnaulton's side lost, and the result was ...... Obviously it won't be biased in favor of her and Taylor.

But if that black man is a bad seed, what is he going to do with himself?

"What do you think that guy is going to do with us?"

Taylor spoke up.

"I don't know, I should find a way to let us go to the gladiatorial arena to fight him, if it is another gladiator, we who have survived until now are likely to be defeated"

Su Qin thought for a moment and replied.

"It's possible, but it may be another" Taylor looked at Su Qin with the iron door, with a smile on his face like a child taking advantage: "Do you know what ancient Rome was like to death row prisoners or people who committed felonies and had the ability to fight?" They will let that person fight to the death in the gladiatorial arena, but it will not be the type that ends in one game, but will keep appearing gladiators to fight you, and the gladiators who will come out will get stronger and stronger, and the number will not be equal, until they are successfully executed"

"Of course, if you can successfully defeat the gladiators and win the love of the audience, you may still be able to live~"

Speaking of which, Taylor looked at the position of the high platform again, this guy was simply here to provoke.

"Felony? What felony can we commit? ”

Su Qin is a little unclear, so he is also a gladiator now, so he can't just sell himself casually, right? Well, it's possible to sell yourself, but not Taylor!

"Are gladiators only responsible for training and fighting?" Taylor looked at the high platform for a while, then turned his attention to the field again: "Look, there are only two left"

Su Qin glanced casually, it was two male slaves whose bodies were stained red with blood, and they were actually the same team of people wearing lantern-type helmets, but now Su Qin obviously didn't have the heart to look at those two, she was thinking about what Taylor said.

What is the role or mission of a gladiator in addition to training and fighting?

Su Qin couldn't help but glance at the high platform again, it was normal, her attention was attracted by the Lexa Municipal Officer sitting in the middle, and at that moment, Su Qin suddenly understood!

"Loveysa! Sexual bribery! ”

The moment these two words flashed out, Su Qin couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

That's right, in addition to training and fighting, gladiators are sometimes used to warm the beds of those high-ranking officials and nobles, and Lovisha is the most obvious example, if that black man is a nightmare, and he happens to be a high-level person who can affect the top in a second-class nightmare, then as long as it arouses Lexa's interest in himself!

When the time comes, he will definitely not obey, and it is very likely that the slave who chooses to resist will be executed according to the method Taylor said, and if he really obeys, what will change? As a gladiator, you have to fight that nightmare sooner or later, unless you are willing to become a xing slave and follow Lexa, it depends on whether people want it or not, even if you really do...... Then the root cause of this nightmare will not be solved at all!

The host didn't come in to be someone else's slave!

So insidious...... Is this still called a scheming nightmare of martial arts......

Wait, didn't Lexa take a fancy to herself at that time? And Taylor is a man, huh?

No...... This is Ancient Rome! Maybe Lexa is very interested in this kind of thin and capable male in the setting! But Taylor really doesn't care......

"Yes...... I almost forgot.,This guy said at the beginning that he doesn't like the type of brain.,On the contrary, he was excited when he mentioned the martial arts department.,In this way.,In fact, the martial arts department is still the martial arts department.,As long as you choose to refuse.,In the end, it's still a matter of using force to solve everything.,It's just a little more difficult"

Although he figured everything out, Su Qin still let out a long sigh, this feeling of waiting to be calculated was really unpleasant......

"Ahh Yes!! ”

At this moment, suddenly there was a burst of screams outside the iron gate, Su Qin turned his head to look, only to see that at some point, two guards with iron hammers appeared on the field, and they were hammering and blasting the heads of those male slaves who fell to the ground one by one!

It's not just those who fell down at the beginning, the only two people left when Su Qin looked at it just now also fell in a pool of blood at some point, and although they didn't die, they struggled to get up.

The audience shouted, "Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

Lexa probably also made a thumbs down gesture, watching the hammer blow those people's heads one by one, and no one could survive this gladiatorial fight!!
