Killing his own father and being infatuated with his sister is really a twisted mind. ??
Maximus was put to death, and Maximus and Lucia had a past. Well, now it seems that the other party has a more precise reason for treating Maximus and his family in this way...
It’s not just about the throne, but more about jealousy...
Lucia did not ask Maximus how to respond, because his current attitude showed that he rejected the other party.
As for, why?
It's more about distrust, and now Maximus is just a gladiator without any strong power in his hands, which is also one of the reasons for his refusal.
As hard as the waist is, the strength in the hands must be strong.
"If you can get the command of the army..." Ji Mo thought and looked at Maximus.
Maximus said leisurely: "I know what you mean, but I need to know the status of the legion before I can make a decision. Moreover, I also need time to determine whether they are worthy of my trust."
"Just make up your mind!" Ji Mo shrugged.
Maximus never gave up on avenging his family, and he did not even forget the last order that Caesar gave him before his death, asking him to return his rights to the hands of the Senate.
It’s not that I won’t report it, the time has not yet come.
…
Maximus gained great fame in the arena, and his reputation spread quickly in Rome.
In order to prevent Maximus's reputation from getting any closer, when Commodus was not sure of winning Maximus, he would definitely not let him go to the arena to gain greater reputation in vain, so Maximus There will definitely be no gladiatorial games in the next time.
But this does not mean that we can relax. After all, no one can say whether Commodus, an unscrupulous person, will use any means secretly to prevent Maximus from having a chance to play again.
Taking the food that Maximus had just brought, Ji Mo pushed the portion of food in front of him, which he was sure was not poisonous, in front of Maximus, and ate it expressionlessly.
Exchange food to prevent the other party from poisoning. Anyway, with Ji Mo's physique, poison is not a terrible thing.
Maximus watched Ji Mo nervously. Although he tried to stop Ji Mo from testing poison, Ji Mo refused because he was a doctor and had experience. In addition, Ji Mo was faster than him. There were so many movements, and every time at this time, he could only stare nervously.
"It's okay!" Ji Mo opened his mouth, and then said: "Don't be nervous, I won't die that easily!".
Maximus touched his chin and lowered his head.
At this time, the black Juba and the German Pelosimo came over.
Juba said with an annoyed look: "Tomorrow, we will participate in the gladiatorial fight, but Maximus is not allowed to play!".
Ji Mo and Maximus looked at each other. They had already guessed this result, so they were not surprised.
"Hey, aren't you angry?" Perosimo looked angry.
"Get used to it!" Maximus raised his eyelids and said.
The two of them were stunned by the answer, and Juba said: "You are famous now, so if he wants to kill you, he can only do it in the gladiatorial arena...".
"We've already guessed this!" Ji Mo knocked on the bowl in front of him, raised his head, and said, "What makes me curious is our duel tomorrow..."
Because there are still a few games left before the mission is completed, the end of the season seems to be very interested in the upcoming battle.
"You are such a weirdo. In addition to taking the initiative to be a gladiator, you are so... uh, passionate about every gladiator!" Juba had a weird look on his face.
Ji Mo rolled his eyes secretly and joked, how could he not love it? This is a mission...
Moreover, he still needs to complete several games.
…
In the next few days, they participated in two gladiatorial games at the end of the season, and both of them won the opponent fairly. However, because Maximus did not play, many spectators were still dissatisfied. However, when their dissatisfaction reached its peak, Commodus arranged a gladiatorial fight for Maximus.
In an instant, the audience's dissatisfaction turned into expectation.
"This means he thinks this duel can kill you!"
"I understand this!" Maximus smiled faintly, looking calm, but slowly showing confidence, and said: "He is destined to be disappointed!".
Sure enough, in addition to finding a champion gladiator who he thought could defeat Maximus, Commodus also laid a trap in the duel field.
As long as Maximus and the gladiator came near the trap during the battle, the people he had arranged in advance would open the trap, release the hungry tiger trapped in the trap, and pounce on Maximus.
Although those hungry tigers are chained and can stay away from threats as long as they leave their attack range, Commodus is really a bit insidious because those traps can only be set when they are close to Maximus. His talent will open up.
Under such circumstances, Maximus not only needs to fight against powerful gladiators, but also needs to guard against the sudden appearance of hungry tigers.
However, Maximus is indeed an undefeated general who came out of the battlefield. Even when faced with such a situation, he still seemed to be able to handle it with ease. Even when faced with the desperate situation of a hungry tiger pouncing on him, he even counterattacked it in one fell swoop. He killed him, and then when faced with the gladiator who was waiting for an opportunity to kill him, he fought back and seriously injured him in one fell swoop.
Seeing this scene, Ji Mo, who was inside the iron gate of the arena and watching the fight outside, breathed a sigh of relief, and then the next scene made him raise the corners of his mouth.
When Commodus pointed his thumb downward, indicating that Maximus should kill the gladiator on the ground, Maximus did not carry out the other party's order, but instead threw away the weapon in his hand.
This act of ignoring Caesar as a slave has only happened to Maximus from ancient times to the present!
This is simply doing what all the viewers want to do but dare not do on their behalf. It is simply reactivating the unwillingness to be ordinary that each of them has buried deep in their hearts.
"Maximus, Maximus!"
The audience's cheers, with a fervor that shocked everyone, raised Maximus's reputation to a new height!
However, Commodus' proud heart fell into pieces with these cheers, because he still did not kill the opponent after all.
The result was already obvious, so he didn't continue watching the end of the season, and he had a premonition that a storm was coming.
