Chapter 417: A Two-Headed Giant Who Likes to Eat Brain Flowers
"I'm sure everyone was quite surprised by the outcome of the last gladiatorial fight. It was astonishing that the mighty mummy lord, the ruler of the Unclean Tomb, the commander of the Blight Legion, the rotten 'Arria', lost to an unnamed 'Arankora Hawkman'! I know that most of the people in the stands will lose a lot of money from the outcome of this gladiatorial fight, and to be honest, so will my friend. ”
"It's like a devil is diligently corrupting the souls of mortals, but the final result is that the devil is influenced by mortals, and wants to get out of the sequence of the nine hells and live happily with mortals in the main material plane. Such a situation is simply unbelievable and fantastical, but it is indeed happening in front of us. ”
"His name is ...... Let me think that the Arankora Hawkman named 'Racelle' had come to Hell to find a fragment of their clan's artifact, the Howling Wind Scepter, which had been shattered into seven pieces in a war that would have been staked into the lives and deaths of their people, scattered across the multiverse.
"As it happens, our great city lord happens to know the precise whereabouts of one of the fragments, and I heard that this fragment is hidden somewhere in the Nine Prisons. There was no doubt that Rechel wanted to get this information, but he had to prove himself before he could speak to the Lord of the Castle. ”
"There's no faster way to qualify than to win from the arena. Except, of course, a large number of souls forever. If you have enough souls, you may even be eligible to have an afternoon tea with the Lord of the Nine Prisons, chat about life in the multiverse, and ask the Lord of the Nine Prisons to add a sweet sugar cube for you. ”
"Rachel is one step closer to his goal, and he has surprised everyone. But apparently Master Besrebo, who was in charge of arranging the match, knows the strength of the Arankola Hawk better than we do. What else can we do about it? We can only hope that the next gladiator will bring us some of the results we want. ”
"One of the next fights was Barrett the Indomitable, whom we are well known and who has been doing quite well lately! Why don't you call him 'The Butcher', because after the last two gladiatorial victories, he has not cut off any parts of the loser's body and took it away. To be honest, I'm disappointed by that, and it seems like my nickname doesn't live up to its name, and it's the last thing I can tolerate!"
"So I decided to call him 'The Indomitable' because this guy had suffered many fatal injuries in gladiatorial fights, but he survived and won the eventual victory. Hopefully he'll like this new nickname I've given him. See, Barrett didn't make that kind of insulting gesture to me again, and it seems that he was more than satisfied with the title of 'Indomitable'. ”
"On the other hand, the terrifying two-headed giant who just killed a blue-footed dragon snake in the last game, Dukaduk!!The two-headed giant's head with red facial stripes on the left is called 'Duka', and the blue facial skull on the right is called 'Duke', hmm...... , it may also be the other way around, probably it's all about the same, don't care. ”
"For this, we would like to thank the Venus flytrap hunting group for their support, who are adept at capturing all kinds of cruel and powerful creatures in the multiverse and selling them to the arena so that the gladiatorial matches we see will be even richer. ”
"We saw that Barrett the Indomitable had made it to the center of the field, and the two-headed giant 'Dukaduk' was still in his cage yelling, and it seemed that he couldn't wait. Without further ado, let's keep our eyes open and watch this wonderful gladiatorial fight. ”
"Play, let's go!"
......
With a loud 'boom' sound, the fence in front of the metal cage fell straight down, kicking up a cloud of sand. The two-headed giant in the cage was still screaming frantically a moment ago, but when the door was actually opened, it suddenly became much more cautious.
Maybe this guy's IQ is not as stupid as it seems, Barrett in the center of the field holds the 'twin swords' stuck in the ground with both hands, silently waiting for the arrival of his opponent.
As the dust cleared, the two-headed giant peered around in his cage, and when he was sure that Barrett was the only enemy, he strode toward him, carrying a bloodied battle axe and a thick mace.
When the distance between the two sides was about five meters, the two-headed giant named 'Dukaduk' suddenly stopped and stared straight at Barrett with the four eyes on its two heads.
Although our barbarian gladiator is relatively tall among humans, he is only as tall as a two-headed giant's knees, and he stands in front of him like a helpless child.
"Duka likes humans!" the head, with its three red stripes, spat out a somewhat indistinct lingua franca.
The two-headed giant was actually quite friendly, "Hmm...... , good, keep it up. Barrett said. He really didn't know how to answer, should he say, 'I like two-headed giants too'?
"Because humans are delicious!" continued another head with blue vertical stripes.
Well, it seems that I am thinking too much. Barrett pulled his broadblade from the sand and prepared for battle.
"Duka will eat you little one, and will put your head in your mouth and chew it all!" "Duka licked his lips as the head that spoke first, "Duka likes the taste of brains, and it's best to roast the whole head over the fire, and when the brain juice is boiling, then crack the skull and sprinkle it with salt, pepper, peppercorns, and parsley." It tasted, slippery, soft, steaming, delicious!"
Yo, this red-faced head is actually quite researched on the way to 'eat'! Barrett couldn't help but feel a little sympathy in his heart.
"No, Duke is going to eat his head!" said the other head, dissatisfied.
"Duka is smart enough to eat heads, and Duke is stupid to eat butts!" the red-streaked head looked a little more aggressive.
"Well, I have a good solution to the problem!" Barrett interrupted the argument, "you guys fight first, and you will decide the winner." The winner will have the right to eat my head as much as he wants. I'll be waiting here and not running around. ”
According to his understanding, the two heads of the two-headed giant race do fight each other all year round. Sometimes even a slight altercation can turn into a constant attack on each other.
"Hmph, the little guy is bad!" Duka actually stopped arguing when he heard this, "He wants us to fight each other." ”
"Duke is smart enough not to be fooled!" the other head also turned to look at Barrett, "This way, Duke can eat ass, but with all the little guy's internal organs!"
Duka tilted his head and thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and agreed, "Okay, Duka eats the upper body, and Duke eats the lower body plus internal organs." ”
"Okay, deal!" The two heads of the two-headed giant reached a deal that satisfied both parties in front of the food.
"Hey, hey, won't you ask my opinion?" said Barrett. The "clever plan" he came up with didn't succeed, which couldn't help but make the barbarian a little disappointed.
"Hmph, food doesn't have a say!" said Duka, a philosophical remark.
"No one cares about the food!" said Duke, not to be outdone.
Well, it looks like I can't even say a stupid two-headed giant, Barrett couldn't help but sigh. Since you can't compare to the other party in terms of eloquence, you can only find confidence from your hands.
He picked up the weapon in his hand and rushed to the two-headed giant in two steps.
"Attention, little one is coming!" Duka reminded loudly. The two-headed giant's tomahawk in his left hand slashed at Barrit, but he leaped sideways to dodge it with ease.
"Duke will kill him!" the other head roared, "Duke is invincible!" The huge mace in his right hand also slammed down, splashing the sky with yellow sand.
"You didn't hit, let him run to our backs!" The red-faced Duka turned his head to look behind him, and the two-headed giant's body began to turn rapidly, "I'm going to kick him hard!" The giant lifted his foot and kicked hard at the 'food', only to be rolled by the brute and dodged again.
"He's stabbed us in the shins, ah, stabbed again!" Duke shouted, "Quick, let's spin, spin!" The giant half-crouched and began to spin in a clockwise circle, the tomahawk and mace crashing wildly at the ground around them, raising sand that raged the arena.
Barrett ran out of the dust with a dirty face, wiping a handful of sand from his face, ready to wait for the two-headed giant's strange attack to finish before rushing over to take out the other man.
"Shall we kill the little one?" said Duka's voice from the center of the dust.
"I don't know, but Duke feels like throwing up. Another voice continued. Then, the two-headed giant in a circle stopped, staggering on the yellow sand.
These two heads are too noisy, can't they work together through heart-to-heart communication?" Barrett shook his head and rushed towards the other again.
It's not too difficult to fight against such a large creature that doesn't have spell-like abilities. While your attacks won't kill your opponent in a single hit, you can use your agility advantage to slowly eat away at them.
Barrett ran to the big man's side, holding his sword in both hands and slashing at his opponent's left leg with all his might. The sword sank into the middle, and both heads of the two-headed giant let out a roar of pain at the same time.
Immediately after that, the sword slashed, deepening the wound and taking away a large amount of blood. The second sword came in a moment, and continued to hit his opponent's left leg, followed by the third. Although the sword did not cut down due to the opponent's movement, it still caused a lot of damage.
Barrett clings to the twin-headed giant's calf, making it difficult for his opponent to strike effectively. And when his opponent lifts his left leg, he quickly moves his body to his right side.
Duka and Duke kept attacking and cursing in their heads, but they were still helpless against Barrity.
In just half a cup of tea, the two-headed giant's left leg was cut by the barbarian, and there were countless wounds, and almost every one of them was deeply visible, and the whole leg was completely unusable.
The gushing blood continued to flow from the wound, causing Barrett to take another 'blood bath'. Unfortunately, the Two-Headed Giant's blood could not activate the [Body of Blood] achievement, and the liquid was of little use other than to make Barrett stink.
The heavy blood loss and the continued futile attacks terrified both of the Two-Headed Giant's heads, and the big man dragged his left leg and fled frantically, trying to get as far away from Barrett as possible.
"Duka hurts, Duka is very uncomfortable!" the red-faced head hung down.
"Duke can't eat the little one, the little one wants to eat Duke!" the other head groaned in the same way.
Barrett ignored his opponent's wails, and jumped straight to his feet, stabbing the two-headed giant in the joint of his right leg with the weapon in his hand, causing him to fall to his knees screaming.
But just as Barrett was about to seize the opportunity to pierce his opponent's two heads directly, a light red, translucent image with bat wings suddenly appeared beside him.
The 'Twin Shadows' were actually summoned at this time, and it was the image of the demon side that was summoned. Barrett felt a little speechless, the key is that he doesn't need the other party's help right now.
"Whew, it's finally out!" the image stretched and showed off his graceful posture to the fullest.
Forget it, it's just a minute anyway, you can play slowly, I'm going to get down to business. Barrett crossed the image and ran towards the two heads of the two-headed giant.
However, the twin shadows suddenly floated in front of him, directly blocking Barrett's way.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" said the image with a sad face, "It's rare for people to show up once, don't you even want to give it a minute?"
This, Barrett was stunned, isn't this forcibly increasing the difficulty for himself?
