I Want To Be a Nobleman

However, he also answered Harold's question in detail. Gladiators are mainly divided into cannon fodder, formal gladiators, senior gladiators, and elite gladiators.

Cannon fodder is ordinary death row prisoners with little ability in the prison, mainly thieves and robbers of average strength, who are usually pulled out to fight for ordinary civilian audiences to enjoy.

They were just some damned scum, and no one cared about their life and death. If there were not enough people, the prison could just pull in a large number of them, and the price was very cheap.

Formal gladiators are more capable, mainly those mercenaries, soldiers, wanted criminals, etc. who have committed heinous crimes. Simply put, they are powerful scum, and they deserve what they deserve when they die, but they can extract value from life.

They are strong but have a bad temper. They often fight and make trouble when they are released from the prison, so they are taken to another heavily guarded training ground for training every day. The guards there are fully armed, not to mention wearing crossbows. No one dares to make trouble for the stupid idiot.

When there are more people watching the game or when the status is higher, these gladiators will be sent to fight. Although it takes some effort to replenish, there is no need to feel distressed.

Elite gladiators are the core of the arena. They don’t need to go on stage to fight at ordinary times. They just train every day to keep their strength from falling. Only the nobles will come out when they come to watch the competition. Every elite gladiator can fight ten against one. master.

Only this kind of battle between masters with extraordinary strength can satisfy the well-informed nobles. There are not many master prisons of this level, and most of them are "bald" and "digged" from the outside with great effort of.

It is precisely because of the scarcity of elite gladiators that the battles between them will almost never execute the loser after the winner has been decided. Of course, it is a real battle after all, and the situation of direct death is unavoidable.

But even so, the treatment of elite gladiators can be regarded as enviable. Most of the time they don’t have to stay in the cell. After training every day, they can chat and rest freely in the training ground. Has the privilege of being able to apply for 'Tokachi Release'.

High-level gladiators are special, specially set up by the 'bald head'. In fact, the strength of this level of gladiators may not be much stronger than that of official gladiators, but the crimes they commit are all justifiable.

Some were accidentally offended nobles and were ordered to be executed, some were mercenaries who were deceived by their employers and committed capital crimes, some were sold slaves like Harold, etc.

This type of gladiator's fighting power is not top-notch, but his character is not cruel, and his character can be trusted. Many nobles, rich and wealthy businessmen will fancy someone and buy them as guards and attendants. The arena can also earn a lot of extra money .

The 'bald head' also tried its best to allow gladiators of this level to enjoy the same treatment as elite gladiators. There is no other difference except that they cannot apply for 'release from ten wins'.

There are less than 10 elite gladiators in the arena, and there are only over 20 senior gladiators. There are more than 50 official gladiators. It doesn't matter if the number of cannon fodder can be replenished at any time.

There are three main types of competitions in the arena, the most common is 1v1 duels, usually between gladiators of the same level.

Then there is a multi-person melee. The number of participants ranges from 10 to 40. The battle is over until only one person is left. The casualties are usually very heavy. It will only be held when nobles come to watch.

The final match is Human-Beast Fighting, which is a new game mode added after "Scar" came to the arena. Simply put, it is for gladiators to fight various ferocious beasts, monsters, and even terrifying magical monsters.

According to the strength of the "beast", the arena will arrange a certain number and strength of gladiators to fight. For the most common beasts such as hungry wolves and wild boars, only one or two cannon fodder will be arranged.

If it is a powerful beast like a lion and tiger, it will probably arrange a few cannon fodder and a lineup of official gladiators.

And if it is a monster, at least ten cannon fodder, several official gladiators, and an elite gladiator must be arranged to fight.

Fighting with these wild beasts and monsters has suffered heavy casualties, but at least the elite gladiators are not easy to lose. The most terrifying and bloody battles are fighting with those magical monsters, such as forest trolls, ogres, and hydras.

Formal gladiators are scumbags with little sense of teamwork. In battles with monsters, they all pointed at their teammates to fight desperately after they got on the duel ring. When you see a monster, you are frightened and have no fighting power.

After several attempts to get cannon fodder and official gladiators to fight the monsters, they were wiped out every time, and they were never able to defeat the monsters. The 'bald head' also understood.

Only by dispatching elite gladiators far superior to ordinary people and well-trained, united high-level gladiators to fight together can those terrifying and powerful monsters be defeated with minimal losses.

As for the 'Ten Wins Release', it means that after accumulating ten elite-level gladiatorial victories, one can gain freedom and get rid of the status of a slave. However, it is very difficult to achieve ten victories in elite-level competitions. Years, only 8 people can pass successfully.

(Win 10 games at the same level. This difficulty is exaggerated. Take Flamma as an example. He is one of the greatest legendary gladiators in the history of the earth. His record in his life is only 21 wins, 9 draws and 4 losses. American dramas and movies They are all processed by art! The physical fitness of ordinary people in this world is not much different from that of people on earth. At least none of the gladiators in the arena surpasses the limit of human beings on earth.)

After listening to Huck's introduction, Harold carefully analyzed the information, there was good news and bad news.

The good news is that Harold can judge that he should belong to the classification of elite gladiators. After all, in the eyes of the bald head, he has a strong physique, and his vitality is still strong.

And after fully experiencing the attribute points and various skills brought by the system, Harold is convinced that his physical fitness is absolutely top-notch among normal humans, but his combat skills and experience are somewhat lacking.

Elite gladiators will not be executed if they lose in the battle, and with the dying resurrection system plug-in, there is no need to worry about accidental death in the gladiatorial match. It is really unrealistic for those tattered weapons to cut Harold into pieces.

As long as he can't die, he can continue to accumulate combat experience and hone his combat skills. While defeating enemies, he can also gain experience points to upgrade and increase his strength. Harold believes that he will be able to complete the challenge of "Ten Wins and Release".

The bad news is that his enemies are not only humans, but also monsters, extraordinary monsters and other terrifying creatures that do not exist on the earth. I just hope that he will not encounter monsters with too sharp teeth and claws. Harold thinks that as long as there are no key parts of the body missing Eighty percent of them can be resurrected from the dying.

At this moment, a strong man came over and interrupted Harold's thinking, and said heartily: "Huck, seeing that you chatted with him for a long time, he should be a guy who can get along well, right?"

Harold glanced at the man who called Huck an old man. He was about 1.9 meters tall and his body was covered with strong muscles. Although he was far from Harold's physique, he was still considered a macho.

"Brother, my name is Tank, and I'm one of the bravest gladiators in this arena. Everyone calls me Stone, and you can call me Stone too. Are you interested in fighting with me?"

While the strong man introduced himself, he proposed to compete with each other. Harold, who was seriously inexperienced in combat, was of course willing, and agreed without hesitation.

Huck on the side was somewhat dumbfounded when he saw that these two people who were almost strangers decided to learn from each other so quickly, but he didn't say much, just explained to Harold:

"Shitou is not hostile. He just likes to compete with others. He has basically fought with the gladiators in this training ground, not against you."

"Don't worry, I just want to practice the skill of using the big sword with someone. I didn't use this weapon very much before. I'm very happy for Stone to ask me to learn from it!"

Harold was afraid that Huck would misunderstand him because he was upset at the stone and planned to teach him a lesson, so he quickly explained that Huck and the senior gladiators were criminals who had committed unjust crimes, and their natures were not bad, and Harold wanted to get on good terms with them. .

After hearing Harold's words, Shi Shi laughed and said, "That's right, old man, I also use a big sword. I just want to exchange skills with Harold!"

The two each took a big sword and boarded the ring in the middle of the training ground. Seeing Harold and Shitou, two big men, were about to compete, a large group of gladiators gathered around the training ground to watch the show.

The relationship between elite gladiators and senior gladiators is quite good, and several people couldn't wait to ask the old man.

"Old man, you have been chatting with someone for a long time, what is the origin of this newcomer, who can win between him and Shitou?"

"Is he the master recruited by the 'bald head' boss? If you don't add some more manpower, you really can't deal with those monsters!"

Huck said angrily: "I just finished introducing the rules of the arena, and I was interrupted by a stone before I could inquire about it in detail. I knew that this guy was Harold, and he was a slave trader who paid a lot of money for the arena. I bought it over there, and I don’t know the rest!”

"Except for those few elite gladiators, almost no one has ever defeated the stone. Do you think he can defeat the stone?"

"Should be able to. Stones usually rely on strength to suppress others to chase after them. The new guy is a circle bigger than the stone. Once there is a competition between two-handed epee swordsmen, it will basically be difficult for one side to be at a disadvantage in terms of strength. There is no chance!"

The gladiators off the field were discussing one after another. Although Harold on the stage was calm on the surface, he was quite nervous inside. He tightly held the big sword in his hands with both hands, and his eyes were fixed on the stone, not daring to take the initiative to attack. Harold wanted to wait for the stone to attack first.

Shi Shi saw that Harold was standing there and didn't intend to attack actively, so he calmly put on an expression of "you just attack me". He felt that he was clearly seen by others, so he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. Okay, since you look down on me, Then I will show you my power!

Originally, he wanted to defeat Harold through skill and speed, and try to avoid power competition. After all, he was indeed at a disadvantage in terms of size, and there was no need to fight in the field that his opponent was good at.

But now, Stone decided to compete in strength with Harold. In order to destroy Harold's arrogance, he wanted to defeat him in the field he was best at!
