Chapter 19 Bargaining
The heavy armored warrior once again destroyed one person, which attracted a burst of cheers, but this was a bleak sound in Ali Sandro's ears. At this moment, his death and other gladiators became a festival embellishment.
Just a sacrifice of blood.
I saw the heavy armored warrior holding the short sword in his hand, and Ali Sandro, who was left with only one person, still wanted to fight to the death, but a light flashed in front of him, and it struck Ali Sandro's wrist, and a severe pain caused
He held his wrist and bent down. He saw that the heavy armored warrior did not kill him immediately, but turned around to the last gladiator, and suddenly flew out and kicked him to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, all the audience saw the short knife flying up, piercing Ali Sandro's shoulder blades like a bow and arrow, nailing it to the ground without any obstacles.
In a breeze, Ali Sandro lost his final resistance, but he was not killed immediately.
The heavy armored warrior stepped on his chest, holding a short sword that originally belonged to the gladiator in his back hand, and looked down at Ali Sandro, who could no longer fight back in the posture of a winner.
But on the other side, Ali Sandro still wanted to fight back unwillingly, but every time he moved, he would pull the wound, and the heavily armored warrior stepped on the hilt of his shoulder blade, causing the wound torn apart
Go deeper.
Finally exhausted Ali Sandro gave up his resistance, and his hand fell on the ground, without any strength to struggle any more.
The heavily armored warrior stood up. Instead of taking Ali Sandro's life, he waved his sword in his hand and pointed it at Theodor in the stands, taking the silent gaze of hundreds of thousands of viewers.
, the warrior finally let out a beastly roar.
This time, there was no huge cheers in the seat, and many people felt a chill. They finally realized that there was not only one beast, but another beast in armor. Now the winner has undoubtedly confirmed it.
But this made all the audience look ugly. It was obvious that if he was allowed to win, the gladiator would be too disappointing. They were originally looking forward to the killer wearing Latin armor being killed, but it was obvious that
A man's strength is simply indescribable.
But unexpectedly, on the high platform, the face of Theodor, who looked at all, was still calm, as if the situation was still under his control.
...
...
...
"Is it here?" Justinian, who was brought over, was still confused at the moment. He was originally watching the gladiatorial performance in the audience, but was brought here by Hendriel who suddenly appeared.
"Yes, Count Theodor wants to see you." Hendriel said nothing more and took Justinian to the steps.
Justinian was also a little hesitant. He didn't understand what Theodor was trying to meet him at this time.
Did he hired the Turks without authorization, or did he beat Romanus before?
Justinian thought about all the possibilities, and when he followed Hendriel to the platform, he saw that there were only two accompanying guards except Earl Theodor.
Theodor has been waiting for him for a long time—
"I think this is probably the first time we have met, young people."
The man with a calm expression slowly stood up, turned around and looked at Justinian and said, "Theodor's body was very burly. In fact, Justinian himself was also tall, but he was still pale in comparison in front of this man.
This was indeed the first time the two met. It has been months since they were here, and Justinian had never spoken to this man face to face.
"That's true, Lord Earl, it's a privilege to invite me to come here to attend the banquet." Justinian replied unashamedly. Looking at the occasion and atmosphere at this moment, he also realized that the other party asked him to come here.
The intention is already.
But Theodor did not go straight to the point, but asked slowly in an inadvertent tone: "I know the conflict between you and Romanus, and I don't mean to blame you for this."
As soon as this said, Justinian's shoulders subconsciously shook slightly, and he remained silent. He didn't expect Theodor to know so quickly, but what made him care more about was the meaning behind the other party's words.
If I just want to punish myself for this, there is absolutely no need to bring a small person like him here.
"Thank you for your tolerance, Earl Theodor." Justinian expressed his superficial gratitude for Theodor's tolerance. Still remained calm, while both sides looked at each other quietly, obviously the other and themselves
Neither willing to give the initiative to the other party. Justinian did not speak, and Theodor was the same. It seemed calm, but Hendriel, who was standing beside him, felt anxious. Justinian's behavior
It's just playing with fire.
But Justinian was not in a hurry. He was even more sure that the other party's purpose of asking him to come here was not related to Romanus, but the warrior wearing Latin heavy armor who was about to win in the racecourse at this time.
Theodor doesn't have so much time to waste with himself-
Sure enough, as he expected, the originally silent man finally spoke up and made his request: "So are you willing to do me a favor now? It would be awful if the victory of this gladiator fell into the hands of the pagan,
I hope you can appear as the last gladiator to dedicate glory and victory to this city, Justinian.”
Theodor really can't afford time. If this continues, once that person wins, he will only fulfill the promise he made, but the consequences will undoubtedly be disastrous. But the other party's special identity also makes Theodor
Er dared not to execute him publicly, so he could only use this gladiatorial game. Just before, Hendriel made a suggestion to him, that is, to let Justinian play and be able to defeat Romanu, a famous swordsman who has been taught by a young swordsman.
This shows that this young man does have this ability.
But now it seems that Justinian is not so obedient. Although his reason is high-sounding, it must not deceive the young man in front of him. And Justinian seems to be more willing to bargain.
Justinian no longer beat around the bush and said straight to the point: "I didn't have the right to refuse the request of the Earl, but I was very curious why it took such a big effort to kill that person." He had guessed that the other party was afraid
At this moment, I actually wanted to let myself get out and clean up this mess. But he didn't want to be someone else's knife used. The identity of the warrior in the racetrack was probably not that simple. What consequences would he bear if he killed him?
