Chapter 90: You're Right
……
Ten minutes later.
"I'm a veteran, and you're unlikely to beat me."
"That's it?"
In an abandoned bunker that Adam had prepared for Grote, Grote wielded an iron rod and swayed under the siege of six men, using his superb combat skills to dodge attacks and counterattacks.
Six people were hit in the arm or leg by Grote, either losing their weapons or being beaten to one knee.
Even if Grote is not wearing power armor, there is no doubt that he is a qualified fighter.
"That's the level of your servants? As long as you don't even have the combat power of the soldiers of the Planetary Defense Force, even if you are fanatical enough to go to the battlefield, it will be useless. Grote looked down at the defeated six with an iron bar, pride and excitement overflowing.
Adam was watching from the sidelines, silently observing Grote.
It's not the first time he's in contact with Grote, and it's not the first time Grote has learned to restrain his emotions, he's done well before, but it's easy to become proud and excited in battle.
It's a bit like the heretics in the Champions of Valiant events.
After pondering along these lines, Adam still didn't know why Grote was expelled from the Praetorian Guard, but he thought it must have something to do with Grote's enjoyment of the fight.
"Let me come." Adam walked over to Grote with a blank face and picked up the iron rod from the fallen man.
"Come on, I've been wondering if you'll be able to fight." Grote was even more excited, taking two steps back and then rushing forward quickly, trying to hit Adam with his shoulder.
Adam didn't dodge, but ran straight into Grote.
In terms of physical fitness, Adam is not inferior to Grote, but in terms of skill and speed, it is even better.
After the collision, Grote was amazed at Adam's strength, and at the same time the body of the hit leaned back.
Adam reached out and grabbed Grote by the collar to pull him back, and punched Grote in the face as he tried to thank him for pulling him.
Bang –
Grote was beaten to the ground, lay on his back for a while, and then slowly recovered, quickly got up and rushed to Adam and slammed his head into the other's head.
This time Adam was lying on the ground, and he slowed down for a while before getting up, looking at Grote with a blank face, as if it wasn't him who had been beaten just now.
"Can you still stay calm?" Grote couldn't believe it, he felt as if Adam wasn't a man but a machine.
Although the servants want to make themselves as cold as the logistics machine, it is still very rare to be able to do something like Adam, people are people, and it is impossible to be really emotionless.
"Thank you for your help, brothers." Adam turned to the six men.
All six shook their heads, then turned to leave.
Adam immediately turned to look at Grote and asked him in a low voice, "As a former Praetorian Guard, you should know more about the Champion of Valiancy than I do, right?" ”
"I don't just know." Grote sat down solemnly, looked at Adam and asked, "What do you mean by mentioning this?" ”
"I don't think you're stupid, you should understand why you were fired from the Praetorian Guard." Adam said.
Grote frowned, and immediately understood what Adam wanted to say: "You mean, the Legion Commander fired me because he was afraid that I would be like my brother and kill innocents?" ”
Adam nodded approvingly.
In Adam's gaze, Grote was dissatisfied: "You say this? I've been thinking about it for a long time. ”
Grote has been thinking about why he was fired, and came to this conclusion early on.
At first, he thought it was because of the revenge incident in the gladiatorial arena, but later he didn't think so, because Qin Mo would definitely support a legitimate revenge.
Then it will only be another reason, which is the Champion of Courage event.
After reflecting on it carefully, Grlot thinks that he enjoys fighting as much as his brother, and the only difference is that he doesn't kill innocents indiscriminately, that's all.
But Grout couldn't figure it out, what's wrong with enjoying the fight? What's so bad about that?
"Is your brother a cruel and murderous man? Do you think there's another reason why he's on a killing spree? Adam sat down in front of Grote and asked very seriously.
As an ordinary officer, he only knows about the Champion of Valiant incident, but he doesn't know anything about the people involved in the incident, and he needs to help Grote analyze, so he needs more information from Grote.
And after much thought, Grote tells Adam a long story.
Twenty-four years ago, when a boy came home to see the bodies of his parents and had to take his sister and brother to the nest to survive, to the end when he became a pit slave and entered the gladiatorial arena and reunited with his brother in the gladiatorial arena.
As Adam listened, he understood that Grote's brother was not a cruel and murderous man, on the contrary, he was actually a good man, a man who was also a brother and a father, and a man who always reached out to others.
But this good brother has a shortcoming that he enjoys fighting very much, and sometimes he even deliberately beats up some villains.
"Maybe something changed his personality." Grote looked at the ground and said vaguely.
There was one thing he deliberately hid from Adam, and that was the statue of the Valiant Champion.
The statue has been blown up, but Grote is not sure if this information can be shared with Adam.
Adam made a cold analysis like a machine, "Your brother has been transformed into a pit slave and domesticated into a gladiator, and it is no problem for him to want to kill, but he will kill those in the gladiatorial arena who have the same fate as him, and this is a problem. ”
"Makes sense." Grot nodded.
Adam continued, "The reason why the Legion Commander fired you is obvious, because he fears that you will one day be influenced by something like your brother, causing your belligerent personality to be magnified to the limit and become indiscriminate. ”
"Obviously." Grote nodded vigorously.
Then the two of them began to meditate in unison, thinking about what was the reason for the influence of their personalities.
After thinking about it for a long time, Adam came to the conclusion that "there must be something affecting your brother, and this influence ......"
Grote stared at Adam and listened quietly.
"Maybe there is something wrong with your family's genes, for example, you have a belligerent gene, you just enjoy fighting at first, and then you will become immersed in killing when you are stimulated by some stimulus. If your experience is the same as that of your brother, you will also go on a killing spree against the weak. Adam expounded his thoughts solemnly.
Grote wanted to say that he was going to Nima, but he pondered it carefully.
In his original judgment, the culprit who caused the big change in his brother's temperament was the statue of the brave champion, but what impact can a broken statue have? There is only one god in mankind, and that is the God Emperor on the Golden Throne, and there can be no brave champion.
From a genetic point of view, it may indeed be a recessive gene that is inherited in the family, and this gene will affect personality...... Grote was never educated, but he had heard something about genetics.
After pondering this, Grote took a deep breath and paused for a moment before saying, "I might have made you right." ”
