Chapter 110 Roman Colosseum
Every competitive event seems to be gambling, and gladiatorship is no exception. So before the gladiatorship begins, they will be locked in a cage outside the gladiatorship, and observe it carefully for the fanatical Roman audience to facilitate their bets.
At the end of the season, a group of gladiators were chained and were still very popular along the way from where they lived to the cage, especially those women.
It can be seen that Roman women are very bold and unrestrained. When they see strong gladiators who please you, they will pounce on them without hesitation and kiss them, and even bolder, they will touch them in undescribable places.
It just so happened that the end of the season and Maximus were both popular, so many women took advantage of it.
"Why, you haven't experienced it?" Seeing Ji Mi's face feel a little uncomfortable, Maximus blinked and a bad smile appeared.
Ji Mo raised his eyebrows, looked at the helplessness in Maximus's eyes along the way, and said, "Aren't you uncomfortable?"
Maximus grinned and said nothing.
"Bang!"
With the locked iron door, Ji Mi and his group were locked in a cage. Then a large number of people, like watching some strange animals, pointed at them and commented.
Ji Shizhong didn't like this feeling, so he simply closed his eyes.
At this moment, he heard Maximus's voice and the person who was talking to him was like a child. Then he stopped paying attention, but he didn't expect that when Maximus came back, a smile appeared on his face, a very bright smile.
This kind of smile is rarely seen on Maximus's face now, that is, when facing Ji Hou's confidant brother, he would occasionally smile like this.
"You look in a good mood!"
Maximus said lightly: "Well, that little kid is very interesting, called Lucius. If you guess correctly, he is Lucia's son!"
"Lucia's son, Commodos' nephew?" Ji Mu opened his eyes and suddenly spoke: "What's your relationship with Lucia? Is that child and you?"
Maximus was amused by the seriousness on Ji Mi's face, and then said, "Nonsense, that child has nothing to do with me!"
"Oh..." Ji Mo said meaningfully, hit the other person's shoulder, raised his eyebrows, and then said, "It's okay for the child, that is, you and that Lucia?"
After shook his head helplessly for the sudden gossip at the end of the season, Maximus said indifferently: "Well, I had an experience before, but we had nothing to do with it!"
Seeing Maximus looking calm, Ji Hou shrugged and didn't ask any more questions.
"Squeak!"
At this time, the iron door of the cage where they were located was opened, and the guard said, "It's your turn!".
As the words came, the gladiators stood up one after another, walked out of the door, and headed towards the arena.
The arena is divided into two spaces, with the upper and lower ones. The upper ones are the places where people watch gladiators and gladiators fight, while the lower ones are the places where gladiators wait to come on stage.
The space below is very large, but it is filled with darkness. Only some braziers burn with blazing flames, bringing some light.
There were many gladiators waiting here, and the group of people at the end of the Season followed their guards through the crowd and rushed to the entrance of the passage where they were about to take the field.
And near the passage, their weapons, spears, shields, and helmets were placed.
At the end of the season, Maximus chose a helmet that could cover his face. Since Commodos' nephew was just here, Commodos might be here too.
They didn't want to be surrounded by the Imperial Guards of Commodos as soon as they went out.
As the door at the end of the passage opened, the sun shone into the long passage, and the group slowly walked out at the end of the season.
"boom!"
As they appeared, the cheers of tens of thousands of people were like thunder sounding on the ground, deafening, making everyone unconsciously look up and look around.
People, people are all people. Looking around, the huge arena is crowded with people, and there is no free space.
The cheers that appeared because of them, the arms that were waving because of the cheers, swung together with the fanatical atmosphere, and were extremely shocking.
Such a grand scene was shocked even at the end of the season.
At this moment, he deeply realized how high the Romans were in their hearts at this time, a competition that could satisfy people's barbaric and primitive bloody desires.
At this time, with the melodious trombone sounding, all the audience began to get up and shout.
"Long live Caesar! Long live Caesar! Long live Caesar!"
Listening to the shouting, Ji Mo narrowed his eyes. Now he understood why Commodos had resumed the banned gladiatorial competition by his father and held this one hundred and fifty-day competition.
Because of reputation!
Through this decision, he could gain great reputation and more respect from the Roman people. If nothing unexpected happens, Commodos did not overwhelm the power of the Senate, so he needed more people to support him to consolidate his position.
Amid the cheers, a face that Maximus will never forget, with a proud look and a false kind smile, as the guards appeared at the best position in the arena, they were directly ahead of them, accepting the cheers of the audience.
Maximus lowered his eyelids and looked away. He was afraid that he would not be able to resist the hatred in his heart and rushed over directly.
"Today, we will transfer the battlefield to the ancient battlefield. What will be presented to you is the historical battle of the fall of Carthage..."
Looking at the high-pitched opening remarks from the person in charge of the gladiator, Ji Hou's face did not change at all, but some gladiators who knew about this battle had turned ugly.
"In that historical battle, we were all killed!" Maximus explained in a low voice to Ji Mo beside him, and then sneered: "I finally know why Prosimo's face is so ugly!"
Seeing that some people standing with them had already started to tremble, Ji Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "The people on our side, except for the dozen of us, don't seem to have any combat effectiveness, which means we are victims?"
"That's right!" Maximus nodded, then spoke to the people on his side: "No matter what comes out of the gate in a while, we can only have a greater chance of winning if we work together! Only by uniting can we survive."
While speaking, Maximus appeared in the invincible confidence momentum that was familiar to the end of the season, and immediately this confidence infected everyone.
"Okay!" As a good brother, the end of the season was naturally the first to respond.
Then Juba and the gladiators under Prosimo naturally had no objection, and even those who were trembling nodded slightly.
The next second, the fight began.
Chapter completed!
