"No. 8, kill that bitch! If you win this game for me, I will give you your freedom..."
"Tsk tsk... Count Sapir, the quick sword No. 19 I chose this time is not that simple. If you want to defeat me, it will not be that easy."
"Why, Young Master Salik still wants to gamble with me outside the court?"
"Just bet...how about a small bet of 50 million?"
"..."
The fight in the octagonal cage had not yet begun. Outside the arena, a greasy-faced middle-aged man with a beard and a feminine, sinister blond young man started to compete with each other.
Raymond knew that blond young man, the young master of the family of the president of the Giant Whale Chamber of Commerce, the notorious dandy of the royal capital, Salik Anderson.
Donny thought that Raymond didn't know those two people, so he explained: "Those two are the sponsors of tonight's fight, Salik Anderson of the Whale Slave Trading Company, and No. 8 is his. Since his brother Wu
After Mu's inexplicable death, he became the first heir of the Giant Whale Chamber of Commerce, and he has been quite high-profile recently... and the other bearded man is Earl Sapir, who is the younger brother of the right minister Clive's family, who is the most popular recently.
, is also a professional slave trader and the owner of No. 19."
"The Clive family?"
When Raymond heard this surname, his eyes narrowed slightly. Tsk tsk... Back then, the poisonous scheme fell into Philip's territory, killing and injuring millions of people in the territory. In exchange for your family's prosperity and wealth, you were really cruel.
"Old Clive was a hereditary grand duke just two years ago. Back then, his family helped the kingdom conquer Philip. Not only did the head of the family, old Clive, become the right minister of the kingdom, but his clan members also made a lot of money.
War money."
Downey thought he had never heard of this new nobleman, so he explained: "This Earl of Sapir is the cash cow of the Clive family. He does a lot of slave business. I heard that he is also connected to a certain big pirate. He can get a lot of money from him.
There are many high-quality slaves..."
"oh."
Raymond responded lightly, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He has roughly understood the conspiracy of the year. The actual controller of the "Blood Skull Pirates" is probably the Clive family. With this big pirate group here, the slave business will certainly make a profit.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a white-faced swordsman with a strong aura beside the bearded man, and asked: "Who is that guy wearing the palace rapier?"
Danny followed his gaze and looked over, raising his eyebrows and saying, "That guy... he has quite a lot of background."
Raymond also became a little interested, "Oh?"
Tangni's tone contained a hint of admiration for the powerful, and he said: "The number one swordsman in the Black Sea, the contemporary master of the first sect of swordsmanship, the 'Flower Sword Style', Master Dionysus of the Great Sword Sect, have you heard of it?"
"Dionysus? The best swordsman of the Black Sea?"
When Raymond heard this familiar name, a hint of amusement appeared on his lips, "He...I have heard of him before."
Not only had I heard of it, but I almost died under the sword of this old man.
"The person in front of me is Master Dionysus' personal disciple and the royal swordsmanship instructor, Viscount Guy."
Downey was quite showy and said: "Don't look at his young age, but he is a genuine Sequence 6 super master... When he conquered Philip in the first battle, he made great achievements and killed many with his own hands.
Philip's master, he was granted the title of hereditary viscount in the kingdom. Now he is a partner in the Clive family's slave business..."
"Haha... So he is a disciple of Dionysus?"
Raymond chuckled, it was true that enemies never get together.
Now, he seemed to know who to kill tonight.
...
"clang!"
A crisp bell rings,
"The duel begins!"
The fight in the octagonal cage has begun.
Sparta holds a small buckler in her left hand and a spear in her right hand. The vital points of her body are hidden behind the buckler. Her eyes are like a poisonous snake lurking in the hole. As long as the buckler blocks the opponent's attack, the sharp spear will immediately
Send a lightning strike.
More than 90% of the swordsman's kills are caused by the sword in his hand. Just like a crocodile, as long as you avoid its mouth, the threat it poses is very limited.
The shield-fighting profession has certain restraints on swordsmen, which is why Downey just said that Sparta's winning rate will be higher.
"Bah!"
The momentum of the two female gladiators was no worse than that of any male transcendent. At the beginning, both sides let out a roar, like two tigers emerging from the cage and pounced on each other.
Keng~
There was a crisp sound, and the two people retreated as soon as they touched.
"Hey...this swordsmanship technique developed by killing people is quite interesting..."
Although the swordsman's sword slash was blocked by the round shield, Raymond could also see that the swordsman's moves were obviously in the right direction of the fast sword style... like a poisonous scorpion's tail hook,
Swift and deadly.
Keng!
Another dream.
While Raymond was still dazed, the two people in the cage made another probing attack.
Both of them were ruthless characters who had experienced life-and-death battles in the gladiatorial arena. They were both very desperate and cautious in their attacks. There was no close fight. After two trials, Raymond knew that the winner would be determined.
"It's about to end..."
He said calmly: "Number 19 is going to win...the next blow will determine the outcome."
"ah?"
Downey on the side listened confused.
He looked at the field where No. 8 showed no signs of defeat at all, and wondered: "How do you know that No. 19 is going to win? Wasn't she successfully blocked by No. 8 in both attacks? Why do I feel that No. 8 is going to win?"
And still have the upper hand..."
Raymond shook his head slightly and didn't explain much.
He just looked at the agile movement of the female swordsman No. 19 to dodge the spear, and guessed that she still had some strength left. That kind of quick reaction obviously suppressed Sparta's blocking speed. The combat experience of the two was different.
There aren't many, and there's nothing to be picky about in terms of skills, but it's obvious that the swordsman's extraordinary foundation is much better. Although she is also a Sequence 8 extraordinary, it's probably because No. 19 was a noble before, and the difference in the level of the magic medicine she took made her have a higher agility attribute.
Much better than the opponent.
Although the shield fighting style has a certain degree of restraint against the light swordsman, it is obvious that No. 19's swordsmanship is so fast that it suppresses the opponent's reaction speed. This alone almost gives No. 19 an invincible position.
This is the biggest reason why Raymond concluded that the winner will be decided in the next round.
At this time,
The two men met together for the third time in the octagonal cage!
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound, and No. 19 slashed with his sword, hitting the round shield just in time.
Nasparta also seized the opportunity, huddled behind his shield and stabbed out with his right hand...
But the swordsman seemed to have expected it. His delicate body twisted strangely, and the spear pierced her body, leaving only a blood mark on her lower ribs, which was not fatal.
This blow seemed to have caused neither fatal damage to the other.
"it's over!"
But Raymond could see that when No. 19 swung the sword just now, he clearly had enough energy left to swing the sword for the second time!
Sure enough, at the moment when the female swordsman avoided the spear, she held the sword in one hand and held a sword flower. The sword blade passed along the edge of the round shield as fast as a stream of water, directly cutting off Sparta's right hand holding the spear.
Tetsuji!
Huh~
Everyone only saw silver sword flowers flashing in their field of vision, and a bunch of blood shot onto the buckler.
Bangdang...
Sparta's right wrist hurt, the spear fell to the ground, and his body stagnated.
No. 8 lost her only spear that could cause fatal damage to her opponent. She could not stop her opponent's sharp sword with only a round shield. What's more, in this level of life and death fight, everyone practiced the one-hit killing technique.
Apart from killing, there are no extra moves at all.
How could No. 19 give her another chance to breathe? The moment the Spartan spear let go, the sword light quickly changed its moves and slashed towards the bottom lane.
Whoosh!
Another bloody arrow shot out, and the Spartan's thigh was cut open with a horrific bloody wound. His feet went limp, and he knelt down on one leg in pain.
"What a great move, 'Z-shaped counter attack'... There is no escape from the water at all, and no extra energy is wasted."
Raymond's pupils shrank slightly, the way of the fast sword was exactly the same as what the old blind man taught him.
Quick swords are used to quickly kill the enemy, not to show off those gorgeous swords. Every battle of the gladiators is a fight to the death, and what they have practiced are naturally killing skills. This female swordsman has already mastered the fast swords
The essence of flow!
Just when it seemed that most people didn't react, No. 19 had already fired three swords in a row. The Spartan was wailing in pain at this moment, trying to use a shield to prevent his own death, and hit the female swordsman with his backhand.
Her mask flew off her cheek...
Unfortunately, the sword light had already been smeared on her throat.
The next moment, a column of blood spurted out, and Sparta's body fell to the ground helplessly.
Downey looked at the battle situation in the octagonal cage, tilted his head and looked at Raymond in shock: "You...did you really guess it right?"
He saw the [Sakura] on Raymond's waist. Could it be that the person in front of him was also a powerful swordsman?
Otherwise, how could he have just asserted that the winner would be determined by the third move?
"is her?!"
At this moment, the mask fell to the ground, Raymond's pupils suddenly shrank, and a cold breath burst out!
"What's wrong with you?"
Downey obviously noticed the change in aura at that moment. He watched the aura on Raymond beside him explode for a moment, and his body trembled unconsciously. It was like seeing an evil tiger showing its fangs, which gave people a creepy sense of fatal crisis.
.
This guy... feels like he's about to go berserk?
This is the eldest prince's secret property, the Guns and Roses Tavern. Who dares to cause trouble here?
He saw that Raymond had put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and suddenly he had a very bad feeling!
Is it possible...
...
In the octagonal cage, when the female swordsman No. 19 finally killed Spartan, she was hit with a buckler on the face and her mask was knocked to the ground.
"Oh, she's so scary like this..."
"That scar is absolutely disgusting..."
"I thought this slave had such a good figure and a pretty face. I wanted to buy it for fun. Tsk tsk... This ghost-like appearance scared me so much that I almost stopped lifting..."
"I said I haven't played a female gladiator before, now it's better, it turns out to be an ugly one, and I save money..."
"..."
The dignitaries and wealthy guests in the hotel also saw the face of No. 19, and immediately showed expressions of disgust, as if they had seen a piece of garbage that should be thrown into the sewer.
"How could it be her..."
Raymond saw clearly her cold, dead face, her eyes were trembling violently, and it was obvious that she was not at peace inside.
The moment the mask came off, she revealed a terrifying face that was supposed to be pretty and flawless, but now her appearance was completely ruined. The two centipede scars running across the left and right sides of her face looked very ferocious, making people feel numb at the first sight.
Even if that face is disfigured,
But Raymond still recognized that familiar face at a glance.
She is Sheriff Philip’s daughter, Judy Nelson!
She is also... one of the few people who can be called a friend of Raymond in this great sailing world!
