Chapter 37 The Price
The shouts of killing outside sounded again, followed by waves of cheers like a tide. Lin Tianyu knew without guessing that it was the audience cheering for Massimos. Just as he stood up and was about to leave, a voice suddenly rang in the room, "It's amazing, isn't it? A retired wrestler with little fame has become the most famous gladiator on the Roman gladiatorial arena, and it seems that he is really possible to complete the challenge of 'Highris' road to glory'."
Lin Tianyu turned around in surprise and found that there was an extra person in the room, a middle-aged man wearing a dark blue wool fleece military coat. The military coat should be an air force coat from World War II. At this time and place, it looked much more alternative than Lin Tianyu's outfit.
There is no doubt that this person will definitely not be a person from this era.
However, Lin Tianyu still asked tentatively: "What are you?"
"I am a friend of Massimos and the one who brought him to ancient Rome. You can call me Max."
"Are you a time traveler too?"
"To be precise, I am the only time traveler, and Massimos is just a friend who took me a ride."
Max said as he walked to the door of the lounge and looked out along the cracks in the wall.
"Although Massimos is not very familiar with me, I like to help others pursue their own dreamland. This is probably my hobby. You know, many seemingly ordinary people are amazing people. They are actually born in the wrong era and are unknown in their era. But if they can change the environment, they may create achievements that attract the attention of the world, and all I have to do is send them to the era they should go to."
"Massimos should have belonged to this era and a arena. Only here can he realize his due potential and create his own glory."
Lin Tianyu was a little difficult to agree with his approach. The so-called glory of the gladiator was just a farce in his eyes. Massimos did kill many people, but what is the meaning of meaningless killing? There are indeed many people in history who are sought after and even worshipped because of their crazy killing of similar people, but Lin Tianyu never thought that such a thing was correct. Besides, Massimos didn't kill enough and was not cruel enough. Who would remember him thousands of years later?
"Even if you have to pay the price of bleeding?" he asked bluntly.
"That's right, even if you have to pay the price of bleeding for this." Kao repeated Lin Tianyu's words and answered his question.
Lin Tian had nothing to say about his meaningless attitude, "Haha, if you say this, your hobbies are really strange." He was not angry at Lin Tianyu's faint mockery of Max, "You are surprised that you have never seen the quirks of other time travelers. In fact, there are far more people with strange hobbies."
Max listed Lin Tianyu one by one: "Assassin Kane, that's what he calls himself. His greatest hobby is to assassinate the heroes and great men of history, conquerors, emperors, kings, generals, or other prominent rulers who have created great deeds. And they have always been assassinated with cold weapons at close range. Watching the famous rulers in history die under his sword is the greatest achievement for him."
"And Lexus, his hobby was to fight. He had participated in wars in every era. He had fought with prehistoric barbarians. He led the crusades to Jerusalem. He led the white musketeers to sweep the Indian tribes. He also fought many battles in World War I and World War II, and served in different camps one after another."
"Olivia's biggest hobby is to go to bed with historical celebrities from different periods, and then write down her feelings on the bed in a scrapbook. In fact, I have read that scrapbook. Believe me, many historical great men in bed are far less successful in military politics or some other fields."
Max smiled as if he knew what Lin Tianyu's incredible expression, "So in comparison, my little hobby doesn't seem so out of line."
Lin Tianyuxin said that there is such a thing, and it seems that there are really all kinds of people among the time and space travelers.
Max asked again, "What about you? What about your hobbies? What kind of achievements do you want to use the Gate of Time and Space?"
Yes, what kind of achievements do I want to achieve? In fact, Lin Tianyu has been thinking about this question just now. He seemed to be answering and saying to himself, "My biggest wish when I was a child was to obtain supernatural abilities, magic, magic, and superpowers. As long as I have a mysterious power that surpasses ordinary people, I am willing to pay any price."
"But when I grew up, I realized that these are all unrealistic fantasies and are impossible to achieve. For this reason, I lowered the standard. I thought of being a writer, but unfortunately, I was average in writing, always impetuous in my heart, and I had no extraordinary experiences. As a result, my dreams are still dreams."
"What about now?"
"Now?" Lin Tianyu suddenly smiled. I thought I might be able to start with writing. Of course, after experiencing several trips, maybe I could write the process of my trip into an autobiographical novel. Of course, after all, I don't want to be targeted by the special police of the Time and Space Administration."
Lin Tianyu became more and more excited as he spoke. Almost the scene of becoming a famous writer signing and selling books was revealed before his eyes, and Max, who seemed a little careless, became interesting.
"Then I wish you success here. I hope you can finally find your meaning in life." Kao said, and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared. He looked outside with a serious expression, as if he had seen something.
Lin Tianyu listened with his ears, and the cheers outside suddenly became silent. Then he heard a scream, the roar of the beast and the passionate shouts of Massimos. After a while, the door of the lounge was suddenly knocked open, and seven or eight people carried Massimos in. Lin Tianyu widened his eyes in disbelief. The strong guy, who was as strong as a Terminator, was lying in a pair of slight slight. In addition, his armor was pierced, his helmet was tilted to one side, and his weapon disappeared.
"I did it, I did it."
Massimos's mind seemed to be blurred, and he just subconsciously said to himself.
"I know old friend, I know!" Max grabbed Massimos' hand and comforted him softly.
When Massimos felt something in his hand, his spirit suddenly became excited again, "I did Max, I became the first gladiator to complete the 'Highris' Road to Glory', I succeeded!" After saying this, his voice lowered again, and it was obvious that this was his last rebirth.
Lin Tianyu quietly looked at the gladiator who paid the price of his life for his dream, until Massimos lost his last touch of spirit. He retreated silently without disturbing Max and his old friend's departure. He saw something different from Massimos, and he suddenly understood what he should do.
If you have a dream, you have to realize it. Writing is just the first step. Of course, his real dream is still to gain the supernatural ability. He thought of the black door at home leading to another world. Although the door may be full of dangers, he didn't care at this time.
Next time I must enter that world, which will be where I gain the mysterious power I have always dreamed of, even if I have to pay the price of blood for it. Lin Tianyu thought, walked out of the door of the lounge.
