Chapter 147 Meeting



Chapter 147 Meeting

Such a grand performance must have a legitimate name. Looking at the entire venue, there are probably only two people who are qualified to receive such a huge honor, Valentinian III and his mother, the regent queen Placidia.

The emperor was young and had no ability to take charge of the show. He was just a distinguished spectator, waiting expectantly for the show to begin with other audiences. He was fascinated by the bloody performance, and the power to lead the show was placed on his mother.

Placidia, the queen with gorgeous clothes and exquisitely braided hair, had a courage that no other woman could surpass. Her eyes were not as tender as those of other women. Her eyes were cold, as if she had seen through the fickleness of the world. She pretended to be majestic to declare her status to the people around her. The ministers around her all obeyed her orders. A woman could hold this huge empire tightly in her hands. She was not without ability.

The host was quietly waiting for her instructions. After all, she was also the chief citizen. Placidia nodded slightly, and the host immediately bowed and saluted, and announced in a deep voice that the beast fighting performance had officially begun! "Look! It's our brave Eunice the Soul-Taker!" The host stepped down, and then came up four people wearing brass masks and wrapped themselves tightly in white robes. They stretched out their hands together and pointed to the empty Colosseum! At this time, there was silence all around, and everyone held their breath and waited quietly.

I saw a large wooden door at the bottom of the Colosseum, opposite the Emperor and the Regent Queen, slowly opening. A man wearing shoulder armor and a very exaggerated vertical crown helmet appeared. The black horse hem on it reflected the black light under the sun, and the brass face guard completely covered his face. He was naked, except for the shoulder armor and the white short skirt to cover his shame. He must have dressed like this deliberately, exposing his muscles. Someone specially applied olive oil on his body, making his body look shiny and making the whole body more three-dimensional. The moment he walked out of the door, he was greeted by the long-lasting and deafening cheers.

"Huh? It's finally here!"

Alessio sat up from his blanket, his eyes fixed on the warrior Yunis, whose muscles were exposed. Alessio didn't really like such boring fights, but he liked this gladiator very much because he could always bring him unexpected and wonderful performances.

The gladiator Yunus, holding a shield in his left hand and a broad-bladed Iberian dagger in his right hand, walked slowly to the center of the arena, raised his weapon high, and saluted the cheering people around him.

"Eunice! Eunice! Eunice!"

People shouted his name in unison. His current status in the hearts of the Romans was not inferior to those of the current superstars. Such cheers lasted for a full five minutes. However, they were suppressed with great difficulty by the host, so that the gladiator Younis in the audience could continue to perform.

"Eunice, the Soul-Cryptor, came to a forest, but at this moment, he found movement in the bushes in front of him!" The four masked lobbyists changed their tone, and Eunice in the arena also cooperated with the lobbyist very much. He bent down, took precautions, and looked at the unobstructed view in front of him with a solemn expression, as if there was really a bush.

"oh!"

The audience in the audience couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and the ladies even covered their mouths to hide their ungraceful and somewhat rude expressions of surprise. Unexpectedly, they were more into the drama than Eunice in the audience.

Alessio sat there motionless. Like all the spectators around him, he was afraid that he would miss the wonderful moment without paying attention.

"Suddenly, a hungry wolf jumped out of the bush! No, three!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door in front of Eunice suddenly opened, and three hungry wolves with gray fur and strong muscles rushed out from the door! They must have been hungry for a long time, so when they saw Eunice in front of them, they pounced on him desperately, dragging the long iron chain under them.

Some people in the audience began to scream, but the sporadic screams were soon drowned out by the cheers that were like waves. The Romans had been waiting for this moment for too long. They just needed this kind of wildness and bloodiness. Why put on a show? If you want to do it, do it for real! "Ha-ka!"

When it was five meters away from Yunus, the chain reached the end and suddenly pulled the three hungry wolves to the ground.

"Oh, look at the beasts sent from the far end of the world in the north. They are so hungry and ferocious!"

As the lobbyist introduced it, the wolf growled and tried to break free from the chains that bound it again and again! And Yunis, who was in front of them, had a solemn expression on his face.

"Look at our brave Eunice the Soul-Cryptor!" The lobbyists pointed their fingers at the muscular Eunice and said in a deep voice, "He is fearless and highly skilled. He has brought us one wonderful performance after another. I hope that this time, God will bless him and let him win!"

As the lobbyists spoke, thunderous cheers broke out on the stage again. The audience could no longer wait, and as a matter of etiquette, Younis had to raise his hands high once again to greet his audience.

At this time, three fully armed soldiers appeared from the open door behind the wolf. They slowly walked out and came to the iron chain, only three meters away from the wooden door behind them. They drew out the iron swords hanging from their waists and slowly placed the blades on the iron chains beside them. They simultaneously looked at Emperor Valentinian III and Regent Queen Placidia who were sitting on the main viewing platform. At this time, Regent Queen Placidia slowly stood up, holding the young Valentinian III in one hand, and came to the front of the viewing platform.

Now it is up to His Majesty the Emperor or the Queen Regent to decide who will attack. The decision is very simple. If Yunis is the attacker, the soldier will sheath his sword and return to the position from which he came. Then Yunis will attack the wolf that is restricted by the chain. If the wolf attacks, the soldier will cut the chain and the three wolves will attack Yunis together.

Queen Regent Placidia gracefully held Valentinian III's hand, letting him watch everything in the audience, and leaned over and whispered to him, "My child, this time, it's up to you to decide!"

"It is up to our Caesar, Valentinian III, to decide the attacking side!"

I don't know how this news was obtained, or whether the lobbyists saw Placidia's small move and keenly guessed the direction of power, and announced the news as soon as possible.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"It looks like he's in great danger!"

At this moment, such a voice suddenly sounded beside Aresio, which aroused Aresio's curiosity. Who on earth was so bold as to shout so loudly next to his seat?

He turned around curiously and saw a middle-aged man wearing a brass muscle breastplate and a bright red cape, looking like a soldier. Because he was singing solemnly, his neatly combed hair made Alessio look not as bad as he imagined. This man looked at Alessio without fear and smiled.

"Aetius?" Aresio looked at the soldier and asked.
