Seeing the soldier whose face he couldn't see clearly entering the arena, Commodus's face turned completely gloomy. He didn't expect Maximus to let others play.
You must know that from his understanding, Maximus is definitely the one with the strongest combat effectiveness in the opponent's legion. Only if he plays on his own, these three battles are the most confident thing for Maximus, and this is what he has the most control over. Hope to see.
His three fights will exhaust Maximus's strength. When the time comes, as long as he plays again, Maximus, who hates him so much, will not give him to others no matter how tired he is. At that time, he can kill Maximus who is too tired to even swing his weapon!
This was the trap he set for Maximus. He used the character that Maximus would definitely do if he promised his father to restore the republic, and used the lives of the congressmen as weights to force Maximus to jump in. trap.
"Could it be that he did this on purpose! In the end, regardless of the lives of all the members, he wanted to lead his legion to kill him directly?"
"No, he is not such a person. I know him. As long as he promises my father, he will do it. So, he thinks that this person can win three gladiatorial games? And after winning these three games, Are you going to kill me again?"
Commodus thought grimly.
At this time, Ji Mo was already standing in the arena with two swords in his hands.
He had no intention of using Li Li. When he helped the gladiators escape that night, many of the Imperial Guards remembered his unique weapons because of his powerful strength, so in order to prevent them from recognizing them His identity alerted Commodus, so he wore a mask to cover his face, and even chose a dagger as his weapon.
At this time, because Maximus led the army into Rome, a large number of civilians heard the news that the two sides were about to fight, and immediately flocked to the Roman Arena under the strong attraction of the fight.
In less than a moment, except for the positions where Maximus and Commodus' soldiers were located, people were already crowded in the north and south directions.
Ji Mo, who was standing on the field, raised his eyebrows, feeling the gradually heated atmosphere, and whispered to himself: "You really risk your life just to watch the gladiatorial fight! These Romans are really crazy!".
After finishing his words, Ji Mo looked towards the arena, waiting for his enemy to appear.
"lion!"
Looking at the several figures running out from behind the iron gate of the arena, Ji Mo narrowed his eyes and lowered his swords naturally, unmoved.
But the audience who saw this scene exploded.
"How despicable! With so many lions, he has broken the rules of gladiatorial combat! What a despicable villain!"
"Yes, I heard that there are three duels like this. You can't win this first one!"
"It would be great if Maximus came on the field, he can definitely take care of these lions!"
"That's right!"
"What a pity, this gladiator is about to be eaten!"
The screams of the audience made the soldiers on both sides, Maximus and Commodus, show different looks. The former was angry, while the latter was ashamed.
Commodus smiled nonchalantly, despicable?
As long as you win, that's the method! That’s wisdom!
Maximus quietly looked at the lions on the field who were about to fight together at the end of the season, and his palms unconsciously clenched into fists.
On the contrary, the end of the season on the field still looked cold. Although ferocious animals like lions will cooperate well when hunting, that is when they are killing prey.
But now, Ji Mo is not his prey. In his eyes, this male lion and four lionesses are his prey!
The two swords were waved casually in his hands. When the lions surrounded him and before they formed an encirclement, Ji Mo tapped his feet on the ground and rushed towards the male lion facing him.
"Roar!" As a beast at the top of the food chain, Ji Mo's behavior was simply a naked provocation. Two pairs of sharp claws stretched out nails like small daggers, leaving deep marks on the ground, and he pounced on Ji Mo. .
With a pair of sharp claws, a sharp mouth, amazing strength and speed, and a ring of mane that flutters with the attack, the male lion is displaying its majesty at this moment.
At the end of the season, facing the lion's attack, amidst everyone's exclamations, he did not dodge or evade. When the sharp claws were about to slam into his shoulders, his body seemed to be pulled by an invisible thread. Just like that, he quickly fell to the ground.
"Bah!"
The sound of flesh being scratched by a sword reminded me of the lion that pounced on Ji Mo, and the soft belly was scratched by Ji Mo's raised dagger, and then, with a shrill roar of pain, "Plop" It fell to the ground with a sound, and immediately, blood gushed out, forming a pool of blood.
Seeing this scene, the audience was stunned for a moment as if their throats were being strangled. The next second, they burst into amazing cheers.
Ji Mo moved his body lightly on the ground, stretched out his hand to wipe off the lion's blood on his face, looked at the lion that was spinning around him, his swords drooped slightly, and looked at the lion in front of him.
At this moment, Ji Mo raised the corner of his mouth and jumped up suddenly, but the lion behind him pounced on him. However, with this jump, Ji Mo jumped directly over the opponent, and then the lion jumped from under him. As he rushed past, the dagger in his hand was stabbed hard by him.
"Poof!" A bright flower of blood spattered again, and the lion with a dagger stuck in its neck fell to the ground, dying.
But when the end of the season landed, the remaining three lions pounced on the end of the season at the same time.
Ji Mo turned around to avoid the lion that was charging from the front. He used his fist to hit the lion behind him on the head fiercely and knocked it to the side. With the dagger in his other hand, he lunged at the side of him and bit him. The big mouth of his own lion was given away.
"Roar!" The lion beside him roared in pain with his mouth full of blood. Naturally, it could no longer live after its brain was pierced.
But at this time, the lion, who had been dodged by Ji Mo, turned around and pounced again.
A cold look flashed in Ji Mo's eyes, he shifted his body, dodged the attack, and slashed the lion's neck with the dagger in his hand like a battle axe.
"Crack!" A clear voice sounded, and the lion's head fell down.
"Woo!" A kitten-like whimper came from beside Ji Mo, but it was the last lioness who stopped where she was and lay down as if she was afraid.
"Ha!" Ji Mo chuckled and whispered to him: "Get out!".
The lioness whimpered, got up and ran out of the passage she came out of.
"Boom!" This strange scene instantly made the audience excited. It was incredible. This gladiator actually scared the lions.
Ji Mo took two steps, pulled out his dagger from the lion's neck, raised it slightly, waved it provocatively at Commodus in the stands, and said loudly: "Next game!! ".
Commodus' pale face was now as dark as ink.
