A trip to the second dimension

The Triumph Beast Arena is not too big, but it is definitely not small either.

If the circular staircase auditorium is fully occupied, it can accommodate approximately 10,000 spectators.

Compared with the ancient Roman arena next to it, it was a bit small, but at this time, she was more like a newborn, full of vigor and vitality.

The sun was shining brightly today, and the surrounding arena could be clearly seen.

The auditorium of the arena is divided into five areas. The front row at the bottom is for VIPs, such as senators, chiefs, priests, etc., the second level is for nobles, the third area is for the rich, and the third area is for the rich. The fourth area is used by ordinary citizens, and the last area is used by lower-class women. All seats are standing.

There is also a canopy suspended by suspension ropes in the auditorium, which is used for sunshade; and the canopy is tilted to the middle to facilitate ventilation. These canopies were manipulated like sails by sailors standing in the uppermost colonnade.

Although there are auditoriums for civilians, it seems that the controller of this arena has no intention of having fun with the people at this time, so there is no one in the fourth and fifth areas, and they appear empty.

I hope that where they are sitting is in the wealthy area of ​​the third district.

They have no status in Rome and rely on money, so they can only sit here.

As for when they came here this time, the main target they were looking for was a general named Andoni Borgia.

He is in charge of the military affairs of this small area. In addition to some military equipment and training, he likes to come here to watch gladiatorial matches when he has nothing to do.

"This should be that person, right?"

Diagonally below Hope's seats, on the first floor, you can clearly see a stand that is more luxurious and comfortable than other places. Sitting there is a tall and thick man, wearing slatted armor and thick-soled sandals. He was laughing and chatting with the guard next to him.

In front of him, there was a table with some fruit plates and drinks on it.

It seems like he really enjoys it.

"It should be him, should we go find him now?"

Nemo listened to Hope's words, but couldn't find anyone for a long time. Kuba next to him saw Andoni, nodded seriously, and then asked Hope.

"No need for now, just keep an eye on him first. Ezio will not start taking action until tomorrow. We are taking action too early. If there is some conflict, it is easy for something bad to happen. Just in case, we will be a little tentative today. Just get in touch, the main thing is to wait until tomorrow.”

Hope shook her head, then turned her attention to Wen Na sitting next to her, and asked curiously: "Are you interested in the gladiatorial battle here?"

Wen Na was holding a stack of paper and a quill in his hand at this time. He was looking at the surrounding environment with excitement and said with a smile: "This is a very good material. Maybe I can use it to write a song." Poetry, this is the main purpose of my travels.”

Hearing this, Hope nodded slightly and ignored him.

Below, a referee wearing a white tunic, sandals, and a helmet walked into the arena, and the surrounding spectators burst into cheers.

It looks like today's main show is about to begin.

"The next step is to watch two people kill each other?"

I hope I don't know much about gladiators, so I looked at the situation below and asked curiously.

Bowser shook his head and said: "That's not the case. In a day's entertainment activities in the arena, hunting performances are usually performed first, followed by public executions of death row prisoners, and the final show is the gladiatorial competition."

"Gladiators and beast fighters are also two completely different professions. Generally speaking, gladiators will not fight wild beasts. We arrived a little late. Depending on the situation, the beast fighting performance should have been completed. Next The process will be a public execution of the condemned man, and then there will be a much-anticipated gladiatorial competition. "

After listening to Bowser's explanation, Hope nodded clearly and continued to focus on the field below.

Sure enough, just as Kuba said, a group of about ten death row prisoners were dragged into the venue by another group of soldiers amidst the sound of chains being dragged.

Some of these people are war criminals, and some have committed other crimes, but no matter what, if they are dragged here at this time, there is only one ending for them, and that is death!

It was very difficult for the death row prisoners whose hands and feet were bound by iron chains to move. After they were pulled closer to the center of the field, the group of soldiers left one after another.

After shouting out the crimes of these death row prisoners, the referee also left.

Just when Hope was a little confused and puzzled, they had all left and who was going to give the prisoner the death penalty, the iron gates of several passages around the venue below were pulled up, and accompanied by a wild roar of a lion, Hope saw it. Five or six lions with chains around their necks rushed out of the passage!

The appearance of the lion immediately caused everyone on the field to cheer regardless of their image.

The same is true for some female nobles, who behave very unrestrainedly.

The chain that tied the lion was very long, which did not have much impact on the lion. It was enough for them to swarm up and eat alive the group of condemned prisoners who were left on the ground to die.

The scene below was so bloody that Winner couldn't bear to see it and turned his head away. However, hearing the screams below still made him feel a little uncomfortable.

As for Hope, this small scene had no impact on him, but he was a little puzzled. He didn't quite understand why the prisoner was sentenced to death in this way.

Just turning his head to look at the excited and bloodthirsty expressions of the rich and nobles around him, Hope felt that he seemed to understand something.

"I always feel that the environment here seems to be very suitable for the growth of the cultists of the Lord of Fear. That flesh and blood apostle seems to be able to absorb negative emotions about blood, right?"

Hope grinned and uttered a possibility.

Kuba nodded and didn't say anything. He couldn't bear to watch the scene of the lions eating people below.

As for Nemo, this little deaf and blind man is still looking for General Andoni. Hope really doubts his identity as a detective.

It's like doubting whether Kuba is a fraudster.

It always feels very unreliable.

After a while, the lions below, which had been hungry for a long time, finally had enough.

Someone in the passage began to pull the chains tied to the lions and pulled them into the passage.

When the lions were taken back, someone else entered the venue to clean up the meat and corpses.

By the time all these things were dealt with, nearly an hour had passed, and the highlight of today's arena finally arrived!
