Chapter 58
Chapter 57 Ominous
“Hehe, do you think I have to lie to you?”
Li Wei said disdainfully.
“In any case, I will advance and retreat with you.”
Saiyanus said to Guta.
Guta did not speak, but his heart was cold.
I didn’t expect him to be so worthless, just let go of Saiyanus’s bargaining chips.
And he knew that his position could not be kept, who would protect his children or even him when that time comes.
There is only one solution to all this, and that is to let Li Wei die.
This made him once again give birth to killing intent on Li Wei.
“Let’s watch the game.”
Li Wei doesn’t want to chat with them anymore, a group of guys who don’t know their status.
“By the way, there is something you may not know. The fortune-telling officer found a sign of bad luck. Three days later, it is not a good opportunity to hold the Centurion Conference. The Centurion Conference must be postponed.”
Saiyanus said slightly at this time.
Li Wei glanced at him in surprise, what’s going on, and this kind of show operation.
“He is right. The centurion meeting requires observation of the sky so as not to anger the gods.”
Old Tulius said with a light cough, “Moreover, even if the meeting is held, if signs of bad luck are found, the official presiding over the meeting can still suspend the centurion meeting. In Rome, the consul did this kind of thing before.”
Li Wei’s eyes condensed slightly, it seemed that Kabo asked to preside over the centuries meeting personally, which meant that he could prevent the centuries meeting from being held at any time.
Saiyanus looked at Li Wei triumphantly. Don’t think that you can do whatever you want with Roman citizens. The officials have many ways to restrain you.
At this moment, a shout came from outside.
“The Capo Archon and the elders are here.”
Hearing this, Li Wei and everyone hurriedly stood up.
Kabo and a few veterans walked over, greeted everyone and sat down.
“I heard that today’s highlight is the gambling battle between Li Wei and Dior.”
Capo said.
“Yes, at first, some people thought that my young age was bullying and suppressed me in various ways. Some people proposed to cooperate with me to produce white sugar and wanted the empty glove white wolf. Others controlled the shipment of beets so that I could not buy beets. Some people have personally sent troops to attack my manor for the sugar formula. Master Cabo, you don’t know how miserable I am, you must be my master.”
Li Wei blinked his big eyes and said.
Hearing this, everyone coughed again and again, then rolled their eyes.
If it is true, it was before, and now the administrator and the admiral are about to be driven to death by you, and who will dare to target you in the future.
Kabo also looked helpless, not knowing what to say, those people would really do it.
Pulker said with a smile: “Please rest assured, our Senate will investigate this matter in detail.”
“Thank you for the great Senate.”
Li Wei said quickly.
Everyone’s heart was stunned, it seems that those elders are really biased towards Li Wei.
At this time, the two young men also left the arena, presumably this gladiator performance will leave them a lot of shadow.
“It’s almost time, then let’s officially start.”
Capo said.
Everyone quickly said yes, Kabo stood up and pressed it lightly, and the whole arena gradually became quiet.
Capo said loudly: “Dear citizens of Capua, I am Archon Capo. Today is the great Apollo Festival. To celebrate this great festival, we held a grand gladiator contest…”
The West attaches great importance to cultivating the ability to speak. Speech is like our Chinese language, which is a compulsory subject for the nobles. They developed speech into a kind of knowledge called rhetoric, which is a kind of knowledge that persuades the public, starting from ancient Greece. It is inseparable from philosophy.
The ancient Roman nobles attached great importance to rhetoric. Basically every noble who intends to enter politics will spend a lot of time studying in this area.
Capo’s speech provoked a round of cheers, and they welcomed the arrival of Capo.
With the sound of a melodious horn, the two teams of gladiators entered the arena from the quiet room under the leadership of the trainer.
Each team of gladiators has fifty people. One of them is wearing a helmet with a face mask and a brim. His left body is wearing armor, holding a short sword and a square shield in his hand. They play the role of the Romans and Capua. Enemy Samni (also translated Samnai, Samnai).
The other team is holding a curved short sword, a small shield with a raised surface in the other hand, and a helmet without a face mask. They are playing the role of a Thracian. They all wore bright red tonnica, with two black feathers floating on their helmets, looking extremely awe-inspiring.
Under the leadership of the trainer, they walked around the arena and then stopped in front of the VIP table.
Seeing this, Capo frowned.
In the process of the Qinna and Capo armed forces capturing Rome, the Samni people provided a lot of support. Capua’s involvement in this way was greatly politically incorrect.
But in this atmosphere, he still endured it.
“My Lord Archon, salute you!”
all the gladiators said together.
Kabo smiled and nodded. Those gladiators returned to the quiet room Only two gladiators remained.
The person who plays the Samni with a square shield is a Gaul, with red hair and a burly body. The muscles on his body look like they are about to explode.
The Thracian is a real Thracian. Thracian is rebellious by nature. Even if he becomes a slave gladiator, he is often very restless. This Thracian gladiator is very powerful. He is from Rome, although he is The hero of the city of Rome, but the strength surpassed the champion of the small city, the gladiator under Li Wei ranked second, and Li Wei arranged for him to play to get a good start.
“The first one to appear was Lessix, a Gaul from the Dior Gladiator Training School. We are very familiar with this gladiator. He is strong and cruel. He has participated in 21 gladiator matches and killed 30. Many gladiators. Just last month, in front of all the audience, he tortured and killed one of his opponents and chopped off all his limbs. His opponent was going to be unlucky.”
An arena staff shouted loudly.
The Gaul raised his shield and short sword and let out an angry roar.
“what!”
“what!”
“what!”
“……”
There were bursts of screams in the audience, and it was obvious that this was a very popular gladiator.
“Lessix, I love you!”
“kill him!”
“Lessix, kill that boob!”
“……”
The audience said excitedly, as if the opposite Gladiator had a deep hatred with them.
Although Li Wei had such a memory, he was still very surprised when he visited the scene in person. This is entirely the treatment of the emperor superstar. It is no wonder that later generations will like gladiators.
