Chapter 18: The Victory Has Been Determined
The sharp dagger in the Latin warrior's hand penetrated directly into the chest of the gladiator, and blood rushed out. Seeing this scene, Theodore finally couldn't sit still. Several experienced gladiators were unable to do anything to him.
With only the last two people left, it is undoubtedly almost impossible to take this opportunity to kill this man.
And Theodore had just promised the other party that if he won this beast-fighting performance, he would let this man leave Agrinion safely. In such a public occasion, Theodore also understood that he
Unable to live up to one's words.
But now in the field, it is only a matter of time before the Latin warriors win.
But unfortunately, Theodore didn't have any other means to get rid of this person, but he was not willing to let him go just like that. At this moment, a man stood on a high platform watching this duel with a determined outcome.
, Theodore also had a complicated feeling.
At this moment, his secretary Hendril hurried over.
"My lord, what do you want from me?"
"What did you do just now? I haven't been able to find you." Theodore was a little surprised. Hendril was a thoughtful person and he would never leave his post easily.
And then Hendril also gave his own explanation, "His Royal Highness Romanus's matter needs to be dealt with, so I left midway. Please forgive me for my negligence."
"Romanus? What's wrong with him?" Theodore, who frowned slightly, felt upset every time he heard his son's name. He had caused a lot of trouble for himself, and Hendril might have to deal with it himself.
It seemed that something serious had happened, and Theodore immediately asked what happened.
Hendriel hesitated for a moment, and then told Count Theodore about the duel between Romanus and Justinian. Although there were no witnesses present, Hendriel checked around and found the previous man.
The group of gangsters finally found out what was going on. With an uneasy mood, Hendril looked at the change in the expression on Theodore's face.
Hearing the news, Theodore's eyes showed a cold light. Although he remained calm, Hendril's heart tightened as he watched this scene. He understood that this man had murderous intentions at this moment, even if he didn't wait.
Seeing Romanus, an unworthy son, did not mean that Theodore would tolerate Justinian's wanton behavior.
In fact, at this moment, Hendril was actually trying to take a gamble.
Taking a deep breath, Hendril suggested softly: "Your Majesty, Earl, I have a suggestion that I hope you can listen to."
…
In the stands, Justinian was also staring closely at the scene just now. Somehow he felt that the swordsmanship used by the Latin warrior felt very familiar to him. At the same time, the danger also made him
Subconsciously, I broke into a cold sweat.
However, in the eyes of others, they did not have the feeling that Justinian experienced. Some people were so excited that they cheered, and some people were nauseated because they were not used to this kind of killing method. Priest Polyoctus on the side simply
He walked away in a hurry. For him, this kind of barbaric performance was beyond the scope of what he could accept. Even if it was the count's request, he was not willing to stay here for one second longer.
On the other side, in the center of the racecourse, the huge war elephant was still charging aimlessly, but neither the gladiator nor the heavily armored warrior paid attention to it.
Alessandro stared at the enemy in front of him. Somehow, a burst of despair arose in his heart. He never thought that things would turn out like this. He was not just a gladiator in the Colosseum, he was
Alejandro was still a mercenary who had experienced many battles, but now he felt that in front of this heavily armored warrior, he was clearly like prey and could only be slaughtered.
Neither of the two gladiators dared to act rashly. They subconsciously leaned against each other. The heavily armored warrior was obviously much more terrifying than an elephant.
The two people joining forces will be the only hope!
But Justinian, who saw it in his eyes, couldn't help but mutter to himself, "It's over, the victory or defeat has been decided. They have been overwhelmed just from the momentum. Without the courage and consciousness to fight life and death, victory is impossible."
Not that person."
The three people faced each other, and no one dared to move again, because the exposure of any flaw meant death, but this could not satisfy the people in the audience. They came here to seek excitement, and the fight just now was so intense.
It was wonderful, but it suddenly came to an abrupt end.
This caused the audience to suddenly become agitated, and a harsh trumpet sounded suddenly, and the audience's rude voices rose and fell in the air:
"Why don't you fight?"
"Hurry up!"
"How long do we have to wait!"
From time to time, someone would throw rocks in, but the guards at the racecourse did not stop them because there were too many people and they could not control them.
At this moment, the heavily armored warrior moved, and when he raised the short sword in his hand, Alessandro also reacted.
"Now!" the man yelled, and another gladiator on the side also started trotting. His weapon was a heavy battle ax, with both hands raised high, and then he smashed it hard at the heavily armored warrior who rushed forward. He actually directly took the only weapon in his hand.
The weapons were taken off, and it seemed that they had made a desperate move. The audience who saw this scene all stood up from their seats in shock.
If he was hit head-on, he would definitely die, even if the warrior was wearing heavy armor.
But no one expected that the heavily armored warrior did not dodge as people thought. Instead, he held a short sword in both hands and slammed it down with the back of the sword. The back of the sword collided with the battle ax and spattered sparks. The warrior's
The strength can only be described as terrifying. The tomahawk that was smashed crooked by the astonishing force directly changed and dropped heavily, making a big hole in the ground.
What?!
Not only were the two gladiators stunned, but everyone on the stage who had some fighting experience was also shocked. In addition to amazing strength, the blow just now required calm psychological quality and excellent reflex nerves, and those with these physical qualities
What a terrifying existence a warrior must be.
Smashing away the flying battle ax, the heavily armored warrior did not hesitate at all, and immediately pounced on the bare-handed gladiator. Now, there was no weapon, and the gladiator had not yet reacted from the previous shock, and when
When he realized that danger was coming, the distance between the two sides was only a few steps away.
"Catch it!"
At this moment, Alejandro roared low and threw the long sword in his hand as hard as he could to his companions in the distance. If he had no weapon, he would definitely die. Now he must prevent the last companion from being killed at all costs.
While throwing the weapon, Alessandro also rushed to pick up the dead gladiator's shield and sword from the ground, but when he raised his head again, the scene in front of him shocked him.
It was a person's head, the head of the gladiator. The head was spinning in the air and drawing an arc. It landed in front of Alejandro with a plop. At the same time, another object fell to the ground.
It was Alejandro's sword. Although Alejandro threw it to defend his companions, in the eyes of the audience just now, it suddenly interfered with the sight of the gladiator. The sword hilt had just been grasped, and the heavily armored warrior
