Chapter 171 Yo, is this a coincidence?
The three-day gladiator performance finally entered the final part, and Gao Chao, the biggest one in the entire gladiator performance.
Seventy-two gladiators from different gladiator schools gathered together in the arena today. They will compete in the same field, fighting against each other until the final champion is decided.
Unlike the previous twelve-player melee in Victor Arena, this time, there are more gladiators, stronger strength, and no team formation. They are all single-player battles, and there is no resurrection group. In other words, any minor mistakes may lead to being eliminated.
The audience was looking forward to this visual feast for too long, so when the gladiators first appeared, they burst into cheers like tsunamis.
Satonilos and others finally came back to their senses at this time and realized that they were standing on the highest stage of the Gladiator, representing their respective Gladiator schools. Although they were completely terrified of Zhang Heng after yesterday's incident, this does not mean that they could completely give up the next competition.
Because this gladiatorial performance is crucial to each gladiatorial school and will determine the rise and fall of the next few years or even more than ten years. Therefore, the owners of each school have basically issued a death order, and in addition to asking their gladiators to compete for the championship, they also set minimum goals.
Most of the people like Satonilos are not free yet. If they cannot achieve their goals, they will face great pressure.
So we can't give up now. They are all powerful and famous gladiators. Even if they can't beat Zhang Heng, they can still gain the upper hand when facing other gladiators.
So they just need to pay attention to avoid Zhang Heng in the next battle.
However, when the battle really began, the audience in the stands were surprised to find that the powerful gladiators who were originally placed with high expectations and thought they could pose some threat to Zhang Heng were all performing inappropriately.
Satonilos and others were still affected. These effects were not physical, but mental. Compared with other gladiators who were preparing for today early, many of them did not sleep all night, had poor mental state, and their reactions and sense of danger decreased to varying degrees. In addition, they were also distracted by Zhang Heng's situation during the battle, fearing that they would face the latter in the next game, which also made them restrained.
Of course, their level is there. If it is normal, they can basically control the rhythm of the battle. But now their opponents are not ordinary gladiators, but the remaining elites after several rounds of fighting. Even if their strength is slightly worse than theirs, they are not much worse.
So the audience saw a scene that surprised them. Gladiators who were famous in Rome had failed one after another. Some people who were familiar with Satonilos and Danaus would even wonder if these guys were colluding with the dealer and were playing counterfeit matches, wanting to deliberately lose the battle and eliminate them early, otherwise they would not be able to explain their unbearable performance.
Habitus is the best performer among the group who attacked Zhang Heng yesterday.
Although he lost two fingers, he ran away alone after failing to attack, so he missed the scene of Zhang Heng ascending to heaven. His mental condition was quite stable. His decline in strength was purely due to physical reasons. As Zhang Heng said, losing two fingers had a great impact on his mastery of weapons.
But Habitus also found a solution. He used his left hand to hold the sword and the right hand that lacked fingers, so that his right hand would not need to do too many difficult movements.
Of course, he is not very brave to use his shield to take over the opponent's attacks now, for fear that the shield will be out of hand. Fortunately, he is a flexible gladiator and has learned some steps from the old Persian trainer. Even if it is just a superficial one, it is enough to deal with the current battle and can even gradually gain the upper hand.
Habitus also fought his life this time. He didn't expect that the reputation he had accumulated over the years would be wasted. He gritted his teeth and showed all his strength. He even changed some of his previous fighting styles, reduced the performance of his skills that enhanced the viewing ability, and began to play steadily, and finally successfully defeated his opponent and won the first round.
In addition, like Satonilos and others, Habitus was paying close attention to the movements on Zhang Heng. Seeing that Zhang Heng was still far away from him and had just won and faced the opponent on the other side, Habitus also hurriedly ended the battle.
But when he saw his opponent in the second round, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The Germanic man cracked his mouth at him, revealing two rows of teeth, "Oh, is this a coincidence? It seems that the grudge between us can finally be understood."
Habitus had been paying attention to Zhang Heng before, but he missed Bach. Of course, he was almost at the limit and had no energy to pay attention to two people at the same time.
If it was before yesterday's incident, Habitus was not afraid of meeting Germans at all, because Bach suffered a loss because he was too young. Compared to Habitus, the old fox, it was still worse than that. Even if Habitus was not 100%, he would be at least 70% sure that he would be able to take Bach.
But now it's different. He has two fingers missing. Although both his left and right hands can hold swords to fight, his left hand is not as flexible as his right hand after all. Moreover, he barely won the hard battle just now, and he spent a lot of energy and energy. On the other hand, Bach won easily.
In addition, the Germans obviously had premeditated themselves. They could have won a long time ago, but they had to deliberately delay until now to wait for him to seek revenge.
Habitus looked at the referee beside him, "We are from the same arena, so it's not reasonable to meet so early."
As a result, the referee ignored him and made a gesture to start the war. Bach didn't wait for more than a second and then rushed forward with a grim smile.
Although the two of them always don’t like each other, Habitus still puts Bach in the same position as him in his heart. Although he won easily when they met for the first time, there were many factors in it. Bach was tired, hungry and tired, and at the same time he didn’t know enough about him. He underestimated the enemy first and finally suffered a great loss and was easily played with by him.
But this time the Germans came prepared. As soon as they came up, they had a fierce attack. He didn't pick on the key points of Habitus, but they forced the opponent to jump and dodge, and had to resist his attack head-on.
