Augustus Road

"Today, the soldiers of our Roman army do not have any armor on their upper bodies. They can only tremble under the barbarian arrows, or turn around and escape." - Vigotius, a strategist in the late ancient Roman Empire in the 4th century.

"Let the male Priapus rejoice before the blood! He will bless us to win this great battle!" Orbisius and the priests raised their hands together and shouted.

The soldiers of the capital also shouted together. Many of them were not so much eager to express their piety to the gods, but rather to see the excitement before the blood of the "sacrifice" splattered as soon as possible.

Suddenly, Adiana stood up in the audience, covered her mouth and screamed, and Bodi also screamed on the altar. Orbisius turned around hurriedly and saw Calabis biting the enamel pendant hanging on his chest, raising his neck, then lowering his head, sitting on the ground and twitching all over.

"I knew it, I knew it!" Adiana burst into tears: Calabis had indeed swallowed the venom before receiving the punishment of castration.

"Damn it, you can't die now, you must complete the sacred ritual. Timothy, where is Timothy, use your snake venom to dissolve the poison of this sacrifice!" Obisius, who understood the situation, stepped forward angrily. , pulled the twitching Karabis's hair, but the other party began to roll his eyes, foaming at the mouth, and didn't know what he was talking about.

Calabis's delirium became louder and louder. It seemed that the signs of his poisoning were rapidly deepening. Obisius had never heard the words he said. The old guy couldn't help but subconsciously shouted, "You despicable sacrifice, What are you talking about?"

In fact, Calabis speaks a language called Chinese:

"Obisius, go to hell!"

Along with these words, Orbisius suddenly saw that Calabis's black eyes were back, staring at him. The old guy couldn't help but shake down, and his hands loosened.

Then, Calabis jumped up like a leopard and hit Obisius's chin with his head with great force. This almost exhausted all his strength. The old guy's mouth and nose were covered with blood, and he was miserable. Fall down on the altar floor.

"Okay! Long live!" Upon seeing this, the soldiers of Pontus shouted wildly like a tsunami. On the viewing platform over there, many attendants and officers, including Mithridates himself, straightened up in their seats as if on alert. The body, while Stratonis, the concubine of the Pontus Emperor, looked at this scene in amazement. Before she had time to worry about her father, she was stunned by this rapid change.

Before Obisius had time to disperse the little stars in front of him, he saw Calabis walking towards him menacingly. His originally gentle and elegant face became extremely ferocious. Obisius's body was shaking like chaff, instinctively The ground is crawling away. But Calabis grabbed Obisius, and his extreme anger and excitement made him extremely strong. "You dare to castrate me!" He first grabbed the shriveled thing under Obisius's crotch, and held it for dear life. As soon as he took hold of it, Obi Houston howled like a donkey, stretching his neck to an extremely long length, wailing, oh, oh, oh, with a mouth full of broken teeth and bloody foam.

"I'll give you the venom!" Calabis really opened the lid of the enamel pendant, pinched Obisius' mouth that was wide open due to the severe pain, and poured half of the liquid in the pendant into it.

Just as Calabis stood up, Orbisius's throat was mixed with blood foam, spurting out streams of black liquid like a fountain, and his body was twitching back and forth like a loom. The poison prepared by the Mitra family was extremely Swift and violent. "Father!" Stratonis screamed after she realized what she was doing.

Then, in front of the stunned doctors and priests, Calabis walked to the table of the altar, quickly picked up the sharp ax, and struck the doctor on the neck. The blood "popped" and cut off Priapus's inscription. Like splashing red. Then, Calabis knocked down the priests and assistants who were paralyzed by fear one by one, took off his cloak, draped it on Poti, took Poti's hand, jumped off the altar, and ran toward the river.

The sound of wind whistled past his ears, and he felt the bliss of spreading his wings and flying. His heart was still beating rapidly due to the killing just now. No matter what, he might be killed or shot to death within a few steps, but he was still the biggest Protected his complete body to the maximum extent.

Yes, yes, Adiana is right, anyone who has killed one person is not afraid of killing the second or third person.

He looked back at the viewing platform. Adiana stared at him with extremely complicated eyes.

"Farewell, Princess of Pontus, no, Calabia."

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" The soldiers of Pontus who were watching on the side went crazy. They could no longer tell who was the priest and who was the sacrifice, but this bloody scene excited them all the same and they couldn't care less. Calabis and Poti just held up their spears and bows and jumped repeatedly, shouting "Priapus! Priapus!"

"You bastard!" Mithridates, who had come back to his senses, ignored the pain of his wound and stood up on his armchair, intending to issue an order to arrest and execute the two male and female sacrifices to the praetorian soldiers around him.

Unexpectedly, what the Pontic emperor saw at this time was the face of Uterius, the senior centurion of the Seventh Roman Legion, who had just kneeled at his feet.

There was no flattery or begging on this face, only a calmness that even made Mithridates feel chilled, as calm as water.

"Uteris!" Hebrida yelled absentmindedly when she saw Uteris standing up suddenly after throwing down the ivory drawing board. In the light of the electric stone fire, Uterius rushed forward, knocked over a praetorian guard in front of him, drew out the praetorian guard's sword, and rushed towards Mithridates. Mithridates trembled, took half a step back, and fell back. His fat body fell on the armchair, and his hands hurriedly tried to pull out his "Autolicus" to defend himself.

But Uterius was still one step faster, but he did not attack Mithridates' chest, because this king was wearing airtight heavy armor, and only his thighs were unprotected - pfft, Uterius's sword penetrated Mithridates' thigh deeply. The Pontic emperor then let out a howl like a wild boar, and tremblingly drew out the divine weapon Autolicus without taking aim. It stabbed directly into Uteris's abdomen.

"Let go, let go!" Mithridates looked at Uterius who was still clinging to him, horrified, and kept shouting, almost begging, pushing him with his hands, Uterius was stabbed in the abdomen, and blood flowed from his nose and mouth, but he still had a smile on his face and muttered the last sentence in Latin: "Long live the Triad!"

Then there was another puff, and Mithridates' howl became even more pitiful - Uterius used up his last strength and completely buried the sword in his hand into Mithridates' thigh, leaving only the hilt. outside.

Correspondingly, "Autolicus" followed his movements and pierced his entire abdomen, and the sword blade came out directly from the centurion's back.

At the moment before his death, Uterius heard Mithridates' screams and felt his hurried struggle. He was extremely happy and also had a trace of regret: "If I had that knife in my hand now, How wonderful would it be to have a sword called Ebona..."

There was chaos on the viewing platform. Many attendants screamed and fell under armchairs and parasols. Some even climbed over the railings and jumped from the viewing platform. Biduita, the Pontian Guard soldiers, and many generals rushed in front of Uterius and Mithridates, drew their swords and stabbed the dead Uterius, "Stop stabbing. Stop stabbing me, are you going to kill me! Take this damn guy away!" Mithridates shouted, raising his bloody hands.

This kind of chaos gave Calabis and Poti great convenience. Calabis ran while shouting: "The Emperor has been assassinated, the Emperor has been assassinated!" As a result, the Pontic army became even more chaotic, and almost all of them The infantry and cavalry were running around aimlessly.

"Blow the horn and call everyone to come and save my father!" Adiana hurriedly ordered the soldiers around her. Then she glanced at the back of Calabis as he quickly left. The back quickly disappeared in the torrent of the crowd. Indistinguishable.

"Ahhh!" Haibrida shouted, and together with the rest of the soldiers of the Third Regiment, they knocked down the attendants and imperial guards guarding them, seized the sword, and then went on a killing spree, leaving a bloody mess all around the viewing platform. Fly, "Hybrida!" Arminius stabbed a Pontian Guard soldier to death, snatched the opponent's bronze shield and threw it to Hybrida, who then threw the shield He stepped forward and said, "Everyone, follow me and run to the other side of the river. March in column, and those on the sides raise their shields!"
