[Human Records? Gladiators (2)]: At the funeral of his father Junius Lar, Junius Brutus ordered three slaves to fight naked with only a short sword in their hands.
, the dignitaries who were watching at that time were all moved by this, and the beastiality hidden in human beings was completely released under the inadvertent actions of Junius Brutus.
………………………………………………………………..
The main culprit for why Assas became a slave was the controller of this arena, Bruno.
The mortality rate in the gladiatorial arena is extremely high. Even veterans who have survived hundreds of battles cannot guarantee that they will survive three rounds in the gladiatorial arena.
As the strongest country on the continent, the Kingdom of Mycenae has an unshakable hegemony. Neighbors such as Ocaria, Thebes or Minos dare not take the initiative to invade. Since this generation of king Agamemnon succeeded
Since taking over, Mycenae has not suffered from war for 50 years.
In history, war has been the fastest way to obtain slaves, and the Kingdom of Mycenae, which no one dared to invade, gradually faced a shortage of slaves.
In recent years, the slave trade has become the most prosperous industry in Mycenae. The number of slaves imported to Mycenae from various continental countries every day is inestimable. As the kingdom of Mycenae, the city of Tyrian naturally became the main slave.
Input object.
Compared with the beasts or monsters conquered and enslaved by humans, humans are more interested in watching the bloody gladiatorial battles of their own kind. However, the high attrition rate of the gladiatorial arena determines that it cannot be carried out by purchasing slaves at high prices, and as the master of the arena, Bruno
, inherited the "prestige" of his ancestors and carried out more cruel and ruthless activities.
That is to collude with the powerful people in charge of the army and carry out inhumane massacres in the border areas far away from Tyrian City.
By massacring some of the more backward and remote villages and towns, the elderly were killed on the spot, the women and children were sold as slaves to other countries, and the mature men were directly and secretly transported to this arena to become victims of the amusement of the powerful.
Arthas was once the son of an Orion near Mount Pylos. One night, the entire village was engulfed in flames. His parents were killed because of their strong resistance, and he was transported to this arena as a slave.
Perhaps it was the desire for revenge that inspired Arthas' potential. At the age of 17, he actually survived three consecutive battles and continued to grow in the process of fighting with other slaves. Two years later, he lived for nearly 30 years.
Arthas, who fought hard, finally had 10 horsepower, which was equivalent to the existence of a low-level officer.
By chance, Arthur Evans discovered his talent. According to the laws of the Kingdom of Mycenae regarding slaves and gladiators, only gladiators who had survived 99 games could be exempted from the status of slaves.
.
Although Arthur Evans was a prince, he could not change the fact that Arthas was a slave, so he could only buy it in the name of a servant. Therefore, at this time, Arthas was still branded with the shameful mark of a slave.
.
As the masters of the arena, the great nobles Bruno and Arthur Evans also occupy special platforms. This shows that the people occupying other platforms at this time must be the kingdom's big shots.
Kratos looked at the platform next door and said to Arthur Evans in a joking tone: "If I'm not mistaken, that slutty guy is your brother."
Arthur Evans said in a low voice: "Kratos, my brother is your brother. Are you going to have a super-friendship relationship with my eldest brother?"
Kratos unceremoniously gave Arthur Evans a firm middle finger, and the latter also raised two fingers to fight back. His expression seemed to be as disgusting as possible. It seemed that what they were discussing was not related by blood.
He is not a relative, but an extremely obscene rapist.
At this time, a burst of excited cheers suddenly erupted from the audience. That was when the fence of the arena was opened again, and the gladiators who were about to fight each other stepped into the arena one after another.
Seeing the monster entering the field, Arthur Evans said in surprise: "It's actually a two-headed dog. Bruno seems to have spent a lot of money today."
Kratos, who keenly captured the hidden meaning in Arthur Evans's words, quickly asked, so Arthur Evans pointed to the position on the platform opposite them and explained: "Frix, Kingdom Inspector, there have been people recently.
Sensing the secrets behind the slaves, he proposed a law requiring increased slave identity verification, and the censor Fricks was the main person in charge of this proposal."
One of Agamemnon's greatest achievements was to open up channels for speech. As long as they were civilians in the Kingdom of Mycenae, they were qualified to make their own proposals to the country. The censor was established by Agamemnon and was responsible for uploading channels for speech.
The issuing official.

Although this approach still cannot avoid the oppressive reality of slavery, it can be said to be the beginning of a unique and enlightened society in the Peloponnese continent.
Bruno's approach was obvious. Once this law was passed, his illegal channels for obtaining slaves would be interrupted. So he wanted to gain the interest of Inspector Fricks by showing the most bloody and violent side of the arena.
He cut off the implementation of this proposal directly on the road of speech.
The huge two-headed dog stood in the field, nearly two people tall. A pair of hideous and terrifying heads were imprisoned by bronze chains and could not break free. They could only roar continuously, and the vertical pupils of the four monsters flashed with bloodthirsty light.
Amidst the crazy roars of countless people, the gate on the other side of the arena finally slowly opened, and a total of 100 slaves in ragged clothes were driven out in horror.
These slaves were old or young, and they were holding extremely simple weapons such as wooden spears, small wooden shields, bows and arrows. Compared with the two-headed dogs that exuded a boundless ferocious aura, they were as ridiculous as toys in the hands of children.
The two-headed dog is the guardian of the entrance to the underworld and the son of Cerberus, the son of Typhon, the ancestor of monsters, and Echidna, the snake-like creature.
The Typhon that Kratos met in the desert was just one of thousands of clones, and his strength was only one ten thousandth of the original body.
But even with such a clone, even Kratos, who had mastered the power of hunger, could only flee in panic, which shows the horror of his strength.
As the direct descendant of Typhon, the ancestor of monsters, Cerberus is also widely known for his terror. It is certain that he is a terrifying monster whose strength is definitely more than ten thousand enemies, and at least a demi-god can fight against it.
On the platform where the two-headed dog was, the Crown of Rhyena changed rapidly. One of its petals quickly curled up, and was stimulated by the two-headed dog's breath from the underworld.
It turned into a sickly gray-black color.
The two-headed dogs only inherited a meager Cerberus bloodline. Their numbers and populations in the underworld are extremely large, and their individual strength is more than 10 horsepower. It requires an officer-level human warrior fully armed with bronze weapons to defeat them alone.
But such a terrifying monster was actually fought by 100 civilians with varying strengths and poor wooden weapons in their hands.
The result is already foreseeable, either these civilians are ruthlessly slaughtered, or the best outcome is that they all die together.
At this time, a man dressed as a manager led several attendants in cheap, but extremely neat and clean burlap clothes into the platform where Kratos and others were.
The attendant held a wooden box closed with a bronze lock in his hand, while the man dressed as an administrator held a parchment scroll and a quill, asking Arthur Evans if he was willing to participate in the bet.
There is no doubt that gambling is an indispensable and important part of the gladiatorial arena. Whether it is a wealthy aristocrat or a poor commoner, they will also take out their own money in this bloody arena full of primitive human desires.
coin.
Just when Arthur Evans was about to place a bet on the two-headed dog side, Kratos suddenly stopped him and then asked a very abrupt question: "Whose person is Bruno?"
Arthur Evans was stunned for a moment, and glanced subconsciously to his side. However, the manager and several attendants all lowered their heads, as if they had not heard anything at all.
Arthur Evans thought for a moment, then lowered his voice uncertainly: "Bruno's illegal hunting of civilians requires the support of the nobles who control the army. Unfortunately, the most powerful executioner in Tyrian City is my barbaric
Brother."
Kratos nodded understandingly, and without saying a word, he grabbed the purse that Arthur Evans was about to hand out, threw it away, weighed it, and threw it into the box in the hands of the attendant.
"If you want to bet, naturally you have to bet on the one with the highest odds, the 100 slaves owned by Prince Arthur Evans."
Arthur Evans was stunned as he watched the quill flying rapidly on the parchment. Before he could react, the other party had already respectfully withdrew and quickly headed to the next platform.
"Oh Kratos, do you know what 60 gold means? That is all my wealth. If I lose it all, it means that we will all live a slave life this year, and Tanali will not let me
Go to her bed... Oh Assass, you should prepare now to see if the relief warehouse in Tyrian City is open."
60 Minna gold is equivalent to about 300,000 RMB in the previous life. Although this is a huge amount of money that cannot be ignored for ordinary people, for a prince of the most powerful kingdom on the continent, this is actually the cost of a whole year.
It seems quite shabby, which shows how embarrassing Arthur Evans' situation in Mycenae was at this time.
Moreover, Arthur Evans came to the arena not for the thrilling fight, but simply because he heard that there would be an absolute massacre today, so he brought all his wealth with him.
The purpose of coming here to place a bet is just to slightly increase your meager wealth.
Kratos walked straight out of the platform and said without looking back: "My brother, if I were you, I would take the time to calculate how much gold Bruno will give us if we win." (To be continued.)
