Barbarian warriors are known for their bravery and aggressiveness, and no one expected that Gaius's barbarian opponents would choose to flee without fighting from the beginning.
Of course, it is not accurate to say that he wants to escape. The entrance and exit of the ring arena has been closed, and there is a row of fully armed guards on the auditorium. The blue-skinned young barbarian has nowhere to escape. He just fights with his opponent.
Keep your distance and try to avoid the fight like a coward.
Similar things are actually very common in gladiatorial competitions, but there are almost no examples of barbarian gladiators actively evading combat.
The genius swordsman Gaius was a young man after all and had little experience in dealing with situations. He was even stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and started chasing the blue-skinned barbarians.
This barbarian has lost his giant mallet, and has no extra weight except for a crotch cloth. Moreover, he is tall and has long legs, so he can run very fast, and he can run in circles with Gaius in the limited space.
Gaius was fully armed. Although the moth silk secret armor he wore was light and strong, it weighed more than 40 pounds. Together with the pair of alloy swords and axes in his hands, the total weight reached 80 pounds.
This weight is nothing to a fourth-level swordsman, but with just a few dozen pounds of weight, Gaius Len cannot catch up with his opponent.
The two sides chased each other and ran around the field again and again, but there was no physical contact, and of course there was no fight.
The audience in the stands began to boo loudly. They cursed the blue-skinned barbarians with all kinds of curse words for being cowardly, cowardly, and despicable. Some also mocked Gaius for his incompetence.
The audience paid for the tickets because they wanted to see a wonderful, bloody, and cruel gladiatorial fight. If the game did not satisfy the audience, they had the right to yell, no matter whether the gladiators came from famous families or not. Not to mention those who loudly mocked Gaius on the stage.
Mostly people are his peers, who are happy to see Gaius' jokes.
Gaius was immediately furious and immediately ignited a drop of secret blood, which could burst out with speed and power four times in a row. He caught up with the blue-skinned barbarian in front of him in two or three steps, raised his hand and sent out a swift sword light, stabbing him in the back.
.
The fourth-level swordsman's blood-burning bursts, and his attacks are fast and accurate. The disadvantage is that he sacrifices the flexibility of his sword skills. However, not many people can avoid the explosive attacks of the fourth-level swordsman.
Of course, this does not include the blue-skinned barbarians.
He seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. While screaming, he slid sideways to avoid the sword that struck him from behind.
At this time, Gaius showed the true level of a genius swordsman. The moment he passed by his opponent, he first stopped his forward thrust with a lunge, and then continuously adjusted his body's center of gravity. It seemed as if he had overcome the inertia.
Restrain him, turn around, and slash the blue-skinned barbarian's neck with his hand ax.
Gaius's turning back slash is of a completely different style from the previous explosive thrust. It is suddenly full of spirituality, as if it is preying on flying insects or cutting swallows on the water. It changes erratically and presents a smooth beauty, which is simply pleasing to the eye.
There was a sound of exclamation and praise in the stands, and the audience felt that Gaius would definitely cut off the head of the blue-skinned barbarian. However, their praise of the victor Gaius stopped abruptly.
The blue-skinned barbarian used the simplest sliding step to move back, allowing Gaius's graceful and dancing turnaround to continue to fail.
At this moment, the audience looked like they had accidentally eaten a fly at a high-profile party and were unable to spit it out in public, so they could only show constipated expressions.
The decapitation attack that was supposed to be perfect was broken, which was so uncomfortable to watch.
As a result, there was another shouting and cursing in the stands, mainly directed at Gaius.
The blue-skinned barbarians took the opportunity to run away again.
Gaius gritted his teeth and resumed his pursuit of the blue-skinned barbarian. He felt that his opponent had just been lucky enough to escape his inevitable kill.
General Clark's expression gradually became serious, especially after seeing Gaius angrily throwing a one-handed ax at the blue-skinned barbarian, only to be dodged by the other party, he finally couldn't sit still.
Gaius came from a prominent Golden Sunflower family and was a direct descendant of the clan leader. He would be eligible to compete for the position of Golden Sunflower clan leader in the future.
Clark also tried his best to please him. Just like this gladiatorial match, the arrogant Gaius made it clear that he came to the Godore Defense Line to eliminate the orc invaders. Even if he wanted to conduct actual combat training, he had to find a half-man.
Orc butchers or barbarian warriors should be your opponents, not weak and cowardly deserters from Braun Town.
In fact, all the mixed-race gladiators with fierce personalities have been exhausted. The remaining mixed-race gladiators have finally realized that there is no fair gladiatorial competition at all. They would rather kneel down and die than become the object of pranks by famous nobles.
Desperate gladiators have no value.
Clark couldn't use a half-breed from Braun Town to fool the successor of Golden Sunflower. He happened to have a barbarian prisoner who survived to this day because of his special blue skin.
This barbarian warrior is very young, relatively weak, and has not been circumcised, so he can be regarded as a barbarian warrior.
The quasi-barbarian fighter is also a barbarian fighter. Anyway, he meets the requirements of Gaius's actual combat training.
Clark now felt like he had messed up.
The blue-skinned barbarian threw away his weapon as soon as he entered the scene. It was a giant mallet with an exaggerated shape and copper-colored paint to make it look intimidating, but the actual damage was pitifully low, at least it would not hit the target.
How much damage does Uth's Goose Silk Secret Armor cause.
In any case, it is the only weapon in the hands of the blue-skinned barbarian, which will bring him a psychological sense of security, just like the broken branch that a drowning person grabs, even if it has no effect, he will never let go.
The blue-skinned barbarian threw away his only weapon without hesitation, which was unexpected.
What are the most direct consequences?
His weight was reduced, his movements became more flexible, and the threat to Gaius from the unarmed barbarian warriors was reduced.
At least Gaius would think so, thus lowering his vigilance and gradually becoming careless, causing him to throw his ax out in anger.
It's equivalent to the blue-skinned barbarian replacing Gaius' alloy battle ax with his own giant mallet!
You must know that most of the skills of a professional swordsman lie in the weapons he is proficient in. Gaius losing his ax is like a tiger losing a paw.
Moreover, he can throw axes and swords.
Clark simply couldn't imagine the scene of the young and energetic Gaius fighting hand-to-hand with the barbarian warriors. Even if Gaius was okay in the end, the famous Golden Sunflower family would blame him for not doing things well.
He now suspected that the blue-skinned barbarians had set a trap from the beginning, waiting for Gaius to get in, and then finally holding Gaius hostage or simply killing him.
Clark is indeed outstanding as a representative of the famous Silver Horn family. He is a naturally promoted sixth-level swordsman and has the opportunity to reach the seventh level and even become an eighth-level professional. His talent, combat experience, and vision are all the best choices.
No wonder he could guess the interlocking tactical layout of the blue-skinned barbarians.
Unfortunately, he could not understand that it was not terrible for the blue-skinned barbarians to deliberately set up a trap. It could only be regarded as the wisdom of mortals, and many experienced warriors could do it.
Does the young blue-skinned barbarian have rich combat experience?
Not really!
He didn't deliberately set up a trap at all. This is the most terrifying thing!
Clark cannot see through the hidden power woven by the laws of the world, and he is just a mortal who thinks he is smart.
However, mortals have their own ways.
Clark had already arranged for a sharpshooter and was about to intervene in the game when a majestic voice came:
"Gaius needs a lesson, don't worry!"
Clark was startled, quickly stood up, and saluted respectfully to the lonely figure in the corner of the stand: "As you command, Lord Dict."
Gaius's uncle Dict was once an outstanding figure from the Golden Sunflower family. He was naturally promoted from the fourth level swordsman to the fifth level, and then to the sixth level. There was almost no doubt that he would enter the seventh level palace. He also served as the most elite swordsman of the Luoye Academy.
The deputy commander of the Giant Horn Guard Corps can be said to have a bright future.
Unfortunately, Dict encountered an emergency when the Wolf Shepherd, Bertina, invaded Highland City and massacred the children of the famous family. He led a squadron of elite soldiers to stop the Wolf Shepherd's atrocities, but was severely wounded by the Wolf Shepherd, losing his limbs, and became...
Become a bare human stick.
Later, under the initiative of Golden Sunflower and Golden Oak, the famous wealthy families of Luoye City jointly invested and spent a lot of money to help the Great Venerable Dict switch to the Dragon Vein Path, restore his physical health, and his personal strength improved by leaps and bounds.
Similarly, dragon-veined half-elves also have distinctions between high-ranking, middle-ranking and low-ranking.
Generally speaking, no half-elf can directly bear the blood of Dragon King Philumat, so the vast majority of dragon-veined half-elves have used the blood of third-generation dragon descendants. They can be counted as fourth-generation dragon descendants and belong to the lower rank; use
The blood of the second-generation dragonborn, and the third-generation dragonborn cultivated by them belong to the mid-level dragon-lined half-elf.
Dict was too seriously injured. If he wanted to regenerate his limbs, he could only use the blood of the Chimera from the first generation of dragonborn to become a high-level dragon-veined half-elf.
Now, Dict's body has obvious characteristics of dragon transformation. His yellow eyes have vertical pupils, two bulges appear on his forehead, dragon scales grow on his cheeks, all his teeth have fallen out and been replaced with fangs. The most important thing is that his breathing is incomparable.
It is scorching hot, accompanied by corrosive toxicity, and the whole body is always exuding a frightening aura.
Dragonborn obey the Dragon King's will, and Philumat will pay attention to the first and second generation Dragonborn. As for those below the second generation, they are just miscellaneous fish, and the Dragon King doesn't care about them.
There is no doubt that Dict lost his position and his status in the family, and the Dragon King Palace is his final destination.
Before that, Dict vowed to take revenge on the Wolf Shepherd Bertina. If he couldn't do it, he hoped that his nephew Gaius could recover the blood debt for him.
Before the Dragon King Philumat started calling the names, Dict decided to fully support Gaius and spare no effort to train him.
Gaius is too proud, just like Dict.
He needed a public execution-like defeat. It was better to lose to the blue-skinned barbarians and accept the ridicule of the famous children than to lose to the wolf-herding witch Bertina.
That's what Dickert thought.
Unfortunately, he miscalculated.
Gaius indeed threw his sword. The blue-skinned barbarian avoided the flying sword and turned back to fight as expected.
The two people fought with bare hands, then fell to the ground and rolled around. The scene was extremely ugly, causing boos from the stands.
What is surprising is that the blue-skinned barbarian is only agile, or he is only proficient in one kind of gliding footwork, which can dodge Gaius's continuous attacks. He is an amateur at close combat skills.
The outstanding performance of the blue-skinned barbarian deceived everyone, including himself, and mistakenly thought that he was very powerful. However, in fact, he did not awaken the talent of the barbarian blood slaves, did not have rich practical experience, and was completely subdued by Gaius.
Already.
At this moment, the talented young swordsman pressed his knee on the blue-skinned barbarian's back, then twisted his arm, gasping for air and giggling.
Clark couldn't watch it anymore and must end this farce as soon as possible to avoid further damaging the reputation of Golden Sunflower.
He waved his hand, and the two executioners on the stand immediately jumped down with sharp axes, intending to chop off the blue-skinned barbarian's head.
