Chapter 879: Gladiator (2)

Gladiatorial fighting is an ancient and barbaric entertainment, which can be traced back to the period of the creator race's rule in Faerun, and has a history of tens of thousands of years.

However, with the arrival of the civilization of the elves, it gradually declined. The beautiful and elegant pointed ears thought that this kind of sport was too barbaric and rude, and had no aesthetic feeling at all, so no one cared about it for a long time, until human civilization began to rise slowly.

As the most complex intelligent life recognized in the entire multiverse, human beings have mixed too many things from the very beginning, including the elves' nature of pursuing beauty, and the stubbornness of dwarves, and even the cruelty and cunning of demons...

Because of this, the thrilling scenes and bloody deaths in gladiatorial fights can bring them extremely strong sensory stimulation, and they quickly flourished in human civilization. Even today, when the moral system is gradually improving, there are still many places that do not care about kindness. The opposition from the camp forcibly retained it, and Calimport was the most conspicuous of them.

The two large arenas built during the Xia En Dynasty still retain their original appearance, and a public performance will be held every once in a while. The nobles, businessmen, gang members, etc. in the city, all the rich people will come to watch , coupled with the possibility of gambling, it can almost be regarded as a feast.

Listening to the cheers soaring at this moment, you can immediately know how much the upper class of Calimshan loves wrestling. Even those nobles who pretend to be waving their arms and screaming, don't care if it will destroy themselves image, because everyone here looks pretty much the same.

catharsis!

The dense crowd in the stands vented their accumulated emotions to their heart's content!

anger! pressure! The deep desire for blood and killing in the soul!

Everything poured out with the shouts that shook the sky!

Henry now understands why Calimshan is a mess, but has never been invaded by foreign enemies. Whether it's Tethyr in the north, the Steam Lake area in the east, or Tyndor across the Sea of ​​Glory, no one has dared to step into this land. Among them, the large population is one aspect, and the other aspect is the martial spirit of the upper class.

The nobles of Calimshan are like the sunshine in the desert, cruel and ruthless. Once united, they are like a pack of coyotes. Even the bravest lions will inevitably be torn to pieces when they rush in, not to mention the surrounding countries Not really a lion.

With the roar of the audience wave after wave, the chained fire giant was finally dragged out from another passage bit by bit.

With a height of over four meters, dark skin, fiery red hair and beard, thick arms and thighs, this is an adult male fire giant. He wore heavy shackles on his hands. Struggling to curse desperately, a slave who was in charge of dragging was accidentally pulled in front of him, and his fist was sent flying with a single blow, drawing an arc in the sky, and fell to the ground with a bang, motionless, no need to ask. Know it is dead.

As a relatively high-ranking subspecies in the giant family, the power of fire giants is completely different from that of humans. When these giants go crazy, they can lift stones weighing several tons and throw them tens of meters away. A crane is about the same.

"Everyone! What you see now is a living fire giant! He came from the north into the primeval forest of the mountains. We lost more than 20 elite mercenaries before we captured him. Cheer! An unprecedented battle The gladiatorial fight is about to begin! Will the fire giant win. Or the mighty Druid Boyce will have the last laugh? Let us wait and see!"

The man who blessed the "Phantom Sound Technique" continued to mobilize the audience's emotions with his impassioned voice. He himself had already been instructed by his boss, Hamid, to brag about Henry's opponent to his heart's content, so that more people would put their money on the fire giant.

"Ho! Ho Ho..."

The appearance of the fire giant excited the warlike Ares. He opened his mouth wide and let out a huge roar, his round eyes stared at his opponent, and he could rush forward and start fighting as long as he gave an order.

But unfortunately, Henry didn't intend to let it make a move. He just calmed the overly excited nerves of the big brown bear, and then said to the female warrior behind him: "Stay here, don't move around without my instructions."

"You...you plan to deal with a giant by yourself?!!!" Carol opened her mouth in surprise, and her eyes showed an unconcealable shock.

"Of course. Do you think I still need help when I deal with a mere fire giant?" After speaking, a sneer flashed across the corner of Henry's mouth, and he drew his weapon from behind, like an arrow leaving the string, and rushed straight at the opponent who was mad in the middle of the arena past.

At this moment, the fire giant didn't realize that the fatal attack was coming, and frantically waved the shackles and smashed the slaves who were dragging him. The few unlucky ones who hadn't had time to run away were bloody and bloody in an instant, turning into disgusting puddles. of meat puree. His furious performance made everyone present feel tremendous power, and the bloody visual impact made many women couldn't help but cover their mouths.

Although the previous battles between gladiators and gladiators, and between gladiators and ordinary beasts were also very fierce and thrilling. But it was far worse than the scene in front of us, especially when a teenager who was less than two meters tall rushed towards a behemoth twice his height without hesitation, the audience held their breath, waiting for the impending collision.

Getting closer!

Getting closer!

At the moment when Henry was less than ten meters away from the target. The fire giant, who had turned his back on him, turned around abruptly, with a sinister smile on his ugly face. With a strong effort on both arms, the shackles were broken with a bang, and the thick iron chain was thrown out as a weapon and roared loudly: "Human boy! Go to hell!"

Obviously, this fire giant is not only very smart, but also quite insidious. The madness and irritability just now were all faked, just to lure the opponent to take the initiative to attack.

I have to say that if it was Carol, there would be no other way except to use a shield to fight hard. Because she wasn't fast enough to avoid this sudden attack.

But Henry was different. He had neither heavy armor nor heavy weapons, only a light and defenseless leather armor and a long knife.

Relying on his sensitive reaction and explosive muscles, as soon as he exerted force on his ankle, he changed the direction in an instant, and the heavy iron chain hit the ground with a bang. The stones scattered in all directions, and because the impact was too violent, even a trace of sparks were wiped out.

After avoiding the fire giant's fatal blow, Henry jumped up with a smirk, stepped on the opponent's arm, and accurately stabbed the long knife into the opponent's eye socket from the side, followed by a hard pick!

A huge eyeball was snapped out alive and rolled to the ground...

"Ahhhhhh!!!!!!"

The severe pain made the fire giant let out a heart-piercing scream, covering a huge blood hole and waving the iron chain indiscriminately. Want to smash those who hurt themselves into meat paste.

However, Henry left the attack range long after he succeeded in the blow, watching his opponent go crazy with a playful look. He didn't take advantage of the situation to kill the fire giant, because this is a gladiatorial fight, a performance, and also a form of entertainment, so massacre is better than massacre, and it can bring more enjoyment to the audience.

silence!

Although there was only one round of fighting, the audience was completely attracted by this seemingly thrilling battle, and clenched their fists tightly for fear of missing a wonderful moment.

No loud shouts! No rude name calling!

The entire arena was as quiet as if it was empty. The only sounds are the heavy breathing and the painful scream of the fire giant!

Flicking the blood on the tip of the knife, Henry gave an elegant sword-holding salute to the audience, and suddenly started it again. The attack was launched from a blind spot with lightning speed.

The fire giant who lost one eyeball didn't notice at all. A few seconds later, he suddenly found a cold light appearing in front of his other eye, followed by another sharp pain, and it was pitch black...

"Ahhh!!!"

The miserable cry resounded over the arena again!

There is no doubt that this fire giant is completely blind!

Two huge eyeballs lay less than three meters away from their owners, and they didn't look damaged at all.

Obviously, one may be a coincidence, but two identical attacks cannot be a coincidence. All of a sudden the audience understood. The boy standing in the middle of the field is killing his opponent in a very cruel way! To kill a fire giant twice as tall as himself!

moment!

Earth-shattering cheers erupted from the silent stands!

The huge shouts can be heard clearly by the whole city!

For these nobles and merchants in Calimport, the huge contrast between the two sides made them feel unprecedented excitement!

What is more exciting than watching a polite and handsome boy who is far less than two meters tall torture and kill an ugly and powerful giant who is over four meters tall?

You must know that there were very few similar situations in the previous gladiatorial fights. At most, it was killing ogres and trolls, and most of the time, monsters had the upper hand. The one-sided situation like this one is completely different.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the audience, Henry felt that he should work harder, so he rushed forward without saying a word.

in the next few minutes. He fully demonstrated his superb fighting skills and knife skills, starting from his arms followed by his legs, nose, ears, lips...

A seemingly powerful fire giant was dismembered bit by bit, and in the end, only a bloody skeleton was left, with blood, minced meat, and internal organs scattered all over the floor. The most important thing was that as an executioner, Henry was clean. Not even a speck of dirt on it.

Especially the action of taking out a white handkerchief to wipe the weapon at the end, which is both elegant and cold, coupled with a handsome appearance at the end, several female audiences screamed piercingly because of this, and then began to faint on a large scale. Caused quite a riot.

Seeing this scene, Jia Yaxi, the contractor of the Grand Arena in the West District, changed his expression three times in an instant, turned around and asked with a half-smile: "Old man, where did you recruit such a powerful gladiator? Didn't you hear the wind?"

"Hahahahaha!" Hamid laughed while stroking his beard, and at the same time spread his hands pretending to be helpless. "Boyce is no gladiator, he's my best friend and partner. You know, I've been in a bit of trouble a while ago, and my business has dwindled a bit, so I had to ask him to help out." (To be continued.) continued~^~)
