The next day, Lin Tianyu did not leave as planned. He felt that since he had plenty of time and had finally come to Rome, it was necessary to wait and see if the Roman emperor's weapon improvement plan could be successful.

If it succeeds, it means that history has been changed. The Romans equipped the slings used by the Han Dynasty at the same time. This feeling of changing history is much more interesting than selling some toys to some nobles.

In fact, there is a reason why Lin Tianyu is not very clear about himself, that is, the sense of accomplishment. For an ordinary modern person, he usually lacks a sense of accomplishment. Therefore, he can only fill this loss through online games and other things. Lin Tianyu is no exception. It is precisely because of this that when a Roman emperor attaches great importance to some of his remarks and adopts them immediately, he has the urge to prove himself because of this feeling of being valued.

Even he didn't know this at this time. He just subconsciously wanted to stay and see a result. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he was indeed looking forward to the so-called rewards of the Roman emperor.

Since he stayed, he would not just stay at Apius's home. The second phase of the gladiatorial competition was about to begin again, so he decided to join in the fun.

Lin Tianyu was already very familiar with the way to the Colosseum. He had no one to accompany him now, so he left the house alone and walked towards the Colosseum.

As usual, he brought two revolvers and a sword, the Western-style two-handed sword, which looks quite similar to the Aragon sword in the Lord of the Rings, but compared to the stainless steel imitation at home before, this sword is a real killing weapon.

Because he left the door at noon, when he came to the Colosseum, the hot morning match had already ended, and the official afternoon match had not yet begun. Lin Tianyu originally wanted to go directly to the Merchant District (1). He had watched the game there twice before, but when he passed by the emperor's seat, he suddenly heard someone calling his name.

"Hey Heavenly Speecher."

He turned around and found that it was the captain of the guard who confiscated his weapons last night. Judging from his military rank accessories, he was obviously a centurion of the imperial guards. Although he was also a centurion, his status was much higher than the one he saw on the beach. After all, he was a person around the emperor and was often more effective in Rome than some miscellaneous generals.

"The general is asking me for something?" Lin Tianyu deliberately pretended not to recognize the Roman rank and said a little out of line.

"I'm not a general, I'm just a centurion. You can call me Sevis." The captain of the guard said, but it seemed that he was very useful to the title of general.

"So Centurion, is there anything to do with me?"

"It's nothing, but I'm just curious to see you watching the gladiatorial game," he glanced at Lin Tianyu's sword on his waist silently, and suddenly smiled: "Can you sit together with the light? This is a good place to watch the game."

Lin Tianyu shrugged, "Of course."

Then he followed the captain of the guard and sat down next to the emperor's seat.

"His Majesty the Emperor didn't watch the game today?" Lin Tianyu asked tentatively.

The captain of the guard did not hide it, "It's true that your Majesty is discussing weapons improvement with several ministers. I'm afraid he won't come in the past two days."

Lin Tianyu was not surprised and asked casually: "What kind of program is today?"

"Highris's Road to Glory." The captain of the guard said excitedly, obviously this show looks very special.

"Sounds exciting!"

"Of course, this time, the undefeated Massimos who plays Hygres."

"Puff!" Lin Tianyu almost squirted out the wine in his mouth. Massimos, isn't that the name of the protagonist in the movie "Gladiator", "Who do you mean?"

"Massimos, he is a gladiator who volunteered to participate in the gladiator competition. He has a record of unbeaten in 17 consecutive games. He always participates alone, sometimes fights one by one, and sometimes fights a group of enemies alone, and wins a complete victory every time. He can be called a legend among gladiators. Some people even say that he has received the blessing of God, so the weapons in the mortal world cannot hurt him at all. Of course, those words are things that only foolish villagers will believe. In my opinion, he is just a very superb fighting experience."

Although he said that, Lin Tianyu heard some sour feelings from the other party's mouth. He was not surprised. Although gladiators were dangerous in this era, they were also easy to gain the admiration and obsession of the audience. They were similar to later movie stars, and even more so. After all, movie stars only played heroes and beasts on the screen, while gladiators really wanted to get close to the beasts.

While the two were talking, a deafening drum sounded. Amid the tsunami-like cheers, a burly man with a strong muscle like a terminator walked out of an iron gate.

That guy is nearly two meters tall and has extremely strong muscles. Compared with the ancient Romans who are generally only about 1.6 to 1.7 meters tall in this era, this person is like a giant.

He was wearing a black leather breastplate, a hideous red dragon head on his chest was very eye-catching, a ox-horned helmet on his head, and a giant sword with a foot of ten centimeters wide, two centimeters thick, and more than one meter long behind him, which looked like at least dozens of kilograms.

Such a strong man wielding such a giant sword, you can imagine what kind of destructive power it will cause. Compared with those short-sized Thracian Gladiator holding daggers, it is simply disproportionate.

Lin Tianyu stood up all of a sudden. The guy in front of him looked at him and was somewhat consistent with this era. The most important thing was that he saw that "Massimos" was making a V gesture symbolizing victory in the audience. Could it be that ancient Rome already had such a gesture?

"What is this Massimos?" Lin Tianyu asked in a deep voice.

"No one knows," said Severus, his past is a mystery, and that is exactly what makes people puzzled, and although he can speak fluent Latin, he looks very different from us."

"What does that gesture mean? Do you know?"

Severus shook his head, "How could I know, maybe it was some symbolic gesture in the tribe he was originally in."

As the two talked, the fight had already begun. ‘Highris’s Road to Glory’ is a traditional show in the Gladiator program, but it has been completed by very few people. In this program, the person who plays Higgers requires twelve challenges to be completed in one go. Each challenge has to face different enemies. The first challenge is enough to discourage most people because the contestants have to fight a hungry lion alone.

But when the lion, which symbolized the Nimian lion, was driven out of the cage, the scene was silent, and everyone was waiting to see the life-and-death battle in front of them.

As soon as the lion had been hungry for a long time, he rushed towards the only thing it could reach that looked like food - the "undefeated Massimos".

Although the "Undefeated Massimos" was huge, he was not clumsy at all. He watched the lion pounce at him and easily dodged. Taking advantage of the lion's pounce, he fell down with a sword. The sword was so powerful that he easily cut off the lion's head.

The duel came to a result in less than a minute, which was beyond Lin Tianyu's expectations.

When "Massimos" raised the bloody hideous lion head high towards the audience, the audience in the stands started shouting wildly.

But the competition has just begun.
Chapter completed!
