Chapter 1563 The Ultimate Battle on the Battlefield Part VII
Chapter 1563: A decisive battle on the battlefield (7)
In 512 AD, men walked out of the prison cells where slaves were held for the first time and became free.
When he strolled out of the Roman Arena, he was greeted by the applause and cheers of countless Romans.
People call this man a hero, a warrior, a unique champion. People admire his strength and bravery, and even praise the man's mechanics and sophistication in battle, but these people never understand him.
Before leaving, the man looked back again and glanced at the building behind him that made him prosperous, made him struggle between life and death countless times, and made him love and hate. For the first time in his life, he felt hesitant.
That's right. Bereld, the gladiator, was originally a slave. He was a freak since birth. He had four arms. Even his parents thought he was a foreign object that should not exist in the world and was cursed.
And the baby was born, so they abandoned him instantly.
He first spent his childhood before the age of six in an orphanage, and then became a slave in a daze, wandering between the cells and auction houses of countless slave owners. Bereld's last slave owner was very
With his wit, he bought him into the arena and received a lot of reward. Bereld was only twelve years old when he entered the arena.
By the way, the name Bereld is not his original name. Maybe it was changed by the organizers of the arena later because they needed every player to have a name that sounded more domineering and attractive.
The audience's attention.
All in all, when he was only twelve years old at the time, he was sent to the arena in a daze and became a gladiator.
Whether it is luck or misfortune, Bereld has been a slave from the beginning. He has already experienced the bitterness and cruelty of the world, and has honed his unyielding will to survive no matter what, as well as the physical fitness necessary to fight with the enemy. Even if he only has ten
At the age of two, he was still very strong and ready to fight with his opponents.
He relied on the physique he had trained as a slave and his four gifted arms to survive the first wave of challenges. Every day, every day, he had to fight with primitive weapons and fight against those
Opponents with similar status to him engage in a desperate fight. For these little characters who have no status and have just been purchased cheaply from other slave owners, they are all expendable. Failure is not allowed, and the price is only death.
.
Bereld, who was only ten years old at the time, had to cut off the heads of his defeated opponents time and time again. Because this was the only way for him to survive. He lingered in the trial of blood and iron.
Living, and gradually becoming stronger...and numb. He understood his situation and could kill his opponents mercilessly in order to survive. This state has been maintained for several years.
During that time, he always fought carefully and defeated his opponents without any injuries as much as possible. Because gladiators of their level were sent to forced battles every day, and were usually kept in cells to prevent escape.
.Even if you were lucky enough to win the last battle, if you are seriously injured and cannot recover, the next day's battle will be difficult.
However, when Bereld was fifteen years old, his situation changed dramatically.
It was not because the Romans were more tolerant of the gladiators, but because Bereld had accumulated a lot of popularity in successive battles and gradually became famous. Those who had made a name for themselves
Even if the gladiators are defeated, they will not be killed immediately. Instead, the audience outside the venue will vote to decide whether they live or die.
Of course, the gladiator Bereld who has reached this level must also start fighting with warriors of the same high level as him. Those are the outstanding gladiators who have experienced the baptism of thousands of deadly battles and survived the waves.
Therefore, the difficulty and danger of the battle have become higher. In this level of battle, Bereld sometimes wins and sometimes loses, but he has never been executed by the audience. The reason is very simple: because the battles he participated in are all exciting.
.
In countless battles, the boy who was only fifteen years old at the time finally understood the essence of competition like gladiatorial combat.
Its essence is not killing, but cruelty.
Although they are unwilling to admit it, the Romans who ruled the Eastern Roman Empire at that time were actually a brutal and brutal race that respected strength. It was precisely because of their nature of advocating strength that the cruel competition of gladiatorial combat existed and became a public form of competition.
entertainment projects. Citizens vented the stress accumulated in their daily lives by watching the gladiators fight. They did not care which player fell in the end, nor did they care who among these gladiators died or survived.
------All they care about is a wonderful fight.
After understanding the essence of gladiatorial combat, Bereld was relieved. Without the pressure of "defeat or death", all he could do was to fight with all his strength. Accumulate more experience in the battle, and then become
The higher his level, the stronger the opponent he has to face. From veteran warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles, to various Warcraft monsters, and even dragons, he has fought them all one by one.
Gradually, Bereld's winning rate became higher and higher, his skills became more and more mature, and his reputation became more and more famous. When his reputation became so high that appearing in battles became just a matter of being remembered by people.
Worship, when victory and defeat were no longer so important, he degenerated. He could no longer find the slightest passion in the battle. There were only superficially gorgeous moves and futile confrontations like circus performances.
Fighting. However, the general public cannot tell the difference. For civilians, as long as the gladiators' fighting looks gorgeous, it is good.
He forgot that he was still a slave, and only remembered that he was a famous man in the arena, relying on his reputation and being fearless. However, everyone is like this, born in sorrow and dying in happiness. As Bereld's old enemy, he is also
His friend, another gladiator named Leonard, had already foreseen Bereld's fate. During a battle between multiple gladiators performing at the same time and facing a giant dragon, Bereld
He missed and was seriously injured, and Leonard was eaten alive by a giant dragon because he protected Bereld, who was unable to move.
After that incident, Gladiator Bereld has been grieving, and his fighting style has also changed back to the original conservative and stable style. From then on, Gladiator Bereld became a figure in the death arena.
An undefeated legend. Every battle in which he appears will completely defeat his opponent, and end with Bereld completely uninjured. He is as powerful as a monster, with impeccable defense, and ruthlessness.
Incomparably, he won with a sharp counterattack, and his opponent could not even create a small wound on his body.
Just like this, many years later, the undefeated legend of Bereld was recognized by the public, and was also feared by the operators of the Death Arena. As long as Bereld appeared on the stage, he would win, which was very important to the underground management.
It is a nightmare for people who gamble - no matter how low the odds are, gamblers will win by betting on Berelder, and Berelder wins as expected, so the banker must also lose money.
After experiencing hundreds of such big losses, the operator of the Death Arena decided to fire the gladiator Bereld. On the surface, he was granted freedom as a slave, but in fact, it was to make the business lose money repeatedly.
The god of plague was driven away.
At the age of twenty-five, the gladiator Bereld left the Roman Death Arena. While he was regarded by the Romans as an undefeated warrior in the Death Arena, [Gladiator] also became his title that could never be erased.
Later, he worked as a mercenary, a bodyguard, and even a bandit for a short period of time, but he never let his identity stay in a fixed industry for a long time. Starting a few years ago, Gladiator Bei
Laird resigned from all positions and resolutely participated in the Round Table Trials. His motives remain an unexplainable mystery.
…
In the bridge of the battleship Britannia, King Arthur was watching the battle between the werewolf Bediwell and the gladiator Bereld through the holographic screen, and on the other hand he was flipping through Bereld's personal profile.
Although the Round Table Trial does not prohibit unidentified candidates from taking the exam, for the sake of safety, the organizers of the trial usually use various means to conduct overt and covert visits to understand the origins of each candidate. However, even though Great Britain's intelligence network is very
It is huge and there is almost no information that cannot be found. The life experiences of some candidates are still full of mysteries. Not to mention Bediwell who is currently fighting (his identity is a complete mystery!), even the life experience of the gladiator Bereld is also full of mysteries.
Doubtful.
Although he was released from the Roman Death Arena and his status as a slave, Bereld was never a legal Roman citizen. Therefore, his identity information was rarely recorded, and the British intelligence network could not
Most of what I found were just rumors and gossip, some of which were overly exaggerated.
The biggest problem was that although King Arthur had paid a private visit to Bereld before, the gladiator was still unwilling to tell King Arthur his true wishes. The private visit did not force the candidates to answer every question, so the King of Knights did not force him at the time.
Bereld expressed his wish and only tested it, hoping to find out the true purpose of the gladiator's participation in the round table trial from the other party's words. However, the gladiator Bereld was a careful and meticulous person. King Arthur's temptation
In the end, it ended in futility.
What does this guy want to achieve, or what wish does he want to achieve? The King of Knights looked at the gladiators sacrificing themselves in battle on the screen and fell into deep thought.
Is Berelder's fight to resurrect his friend who died on his behalf? Or is it simply to pursue glory and wealth? For the former, the King of Knights has already said to Berelder that even the Knights of the Round Table cannot do it.
Obtained; the latter is not a strong enough motivation, and is contradictory to the gladiator's current posture of sacrificing his life to fight.
