my age of magic

Chapter 416 212. The Distance Between Life and Death

Benjamin looked at the chips in my hand and said to me: "If you do this, it's like throwing gold coins into the pond!"

I looked innocent, and Benjamin couldn't bear to blame him. Instead, he comforted me and said, "You bet with me later, and we will get back the money you lost..."

The stairway where the few of us were was not the best place to watch the game, so Benjamin directly dragged me to the second floor. The four of us crowded on a railing on the second floor. Looking down from here can Clearly seeing the complete fighting scene, the four of us leaned against the marble railing, poked our heads out in unison, and watched the fierce fighting scene inside the iron cage:

The rhythm of the battle inside the iron cage was very fast. As soon as the mummy assassin entered the iron cage, he was tightly attached to the thick steel bars of the iron cage, squatting motionless at the door, holding the sharp dagger in his hand. Like a calm poisonous snake, it is opening its mouth to choose someone to bite.

And that imperial soldier was wearing a light leather armor, the standard leather armor in the imperial army, which is the standard configuration for infantry archers. The upper body only has a simple breastplate to protect the chest, and a battle skirt underneath, with strong and powerful legs. The footsteps that come out have a very unique rhythm. When running, they are fast and slow. He pressed the Roman sword on his waist with one hand, and held a light knight's shield in the other hand. He looked at the man with a blank expression. A mummy assassin with a contemptuous smile on his lips.

...beautiful dividing line...

Hanselton held the knight's light shield flat on his chest and began to run. Every step this warrior in light leather armor took, he leaped five or six meters forward like a spring. It could be seen that he The strength of his legs is already the bottleneck to reach a certain level, but he needs a more suitable opportunity to break through this bottleneck. He has never been able to take this step, but he has already practiced martial arts so well. Showing a standard lunge, every step he takes is so easy, all the muscles in his body are full of vitality in the movement.

The evil smile on his face has not disappeared yet, he is already standing in the center of the arena, and it took only a few breaths to cross a distance of nearly [-] meters, with a contemptuous smile on his face , the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he looked at the mummy assassin like looking at a prey trapped in a pen.It seems that I have to slow down to make this tedious battle a little more interesting.

On the other hand, the mummy assassin, it is difficult for me to see what kind of expression he has under the linen bandage. He is very cautious at this time, his body is tightly pressed against the railing of the iron cage, slowly moving to the right , with light footsteps like a civet cat, the fist sword in his hand is hidden in the cuff, and under the light of the surrounding lights, the cold edge is faintly revealed. He is ready to make the final counterattack at any time, but Hanselton is patient. Absolutely, the mummy assassin tensed all his muscles, but hesitating whether he should take the lead in attacking.

More than half of the nobles who watched the game gathered on Hanselton's side. They expressed their position in this way. As long as they listened to the chaotic shouting and cursing of the mummy assassin on the field, it would not be ugly. The nobles are very supportive of Hanselton.

At this moment, the balance of victory seemed to be tilted towards Hanselton.

In underground boxing, there is a big difference between being supported and not being supported.

Someone in the crowd secretly threw a sling from the outside of the iron cage. This sling is made of two pebbles tied to both ends of a very thin and strong rope. Rough weapons are usually used to hunt extremely fast prey. As long as the sling is rounded and thrown, whether it is a large livestock such as a horse, cattle or sheep, or a large bird that lives on the shore of a lake, as long as the two ends of the rope are If the pebbles are entangled, it will be difficult to have a chance to escape.

This kind of sling is more common in the wilderness. All the orc girls in the orc tribe are good at using slings. They like to use this thing to hunt gazelle.In normal games, the sling would not have any effect, but now it was different. Now that the sling fell into Hansenton's hands, it would be very deadly to the mummy assassin.

This kind of off-site assistance is allowed in underground boxing matches, but it needs to pay a huge sum of money, which is so expensive that even one's own slave owners are unwilling to take it out easily.If someone secretly throws these weapons into the arena outside the arena, it's another matter!
"Look, his speed is so fast, Jia, this gold coin of yours is doomed to be thrown away for nothing, no matter how you look at it, this mummy assassin can't beat Hanselton!" explain.

There was a sound of "ding", and the heavy Roman sword looked at the iron bars of the iron cage, splashing sparks.

The mummy assassin is like a drunken drunk under the Roman sword of Hanselton, barely dodging Hanselton's three consecutive moves, and his body is like a crumpled piece of waste paper , twisted and wrinkled, before passing through the edge of the sword move.

I was a little speechless looking at the disfigured portrait of the mummy warrior. I really don't know where the victory he won before that came from!
Standing in the auditorium outside the arena, the most anxious people are not the nobles who bet, but the two slave owners who are sweating profusely. If they lose the game, they will not only lose a warrior who is good at fighting Slaves will also lose a lot of gold coins, so no matter from which aspect, they are the last people who are unwilling to accept failure.

The slave owner who was standing behind the mummy assassin was already sweating profusely. He was holding onto the iron railing with one hand and kept encouraging the mummy assassin, but this mummy assassin was very dull, no matter who No matter what the slave farmer said, he was indifferent, until someone in the crowd threw a rope at the shield warrior Hanselton. At this time, the slave farmer was completely angry, and sent a series of vicious words to the slave farmer opposite him. curse.

And the slave owner who looked a bit like a fat toad on the opposite side was obviously much more relaxed. He was holding an account book in his hand, and he seemed to have begun to calculate the benefits after winning this game.Seeing someone even want to throw the rope in the field is even more smug.

The mummy assassin dodged Hanselton's three-combo attack, retreated from the edge of the iron railing to the center of the arena, and kept dodging Hanselton's attacks along the way, from the jerky movements at the beginning Now that he has become familiar and smooth little by little, his learning ability and adaptability are actually so strong. He has already got a general understanding of Hanselton's attack routines in just a few moves, and then began to borrow With his own speed, he was also very accurate in making some predictions.

His agility and speed were actually increasing little by little until he retreated to the center of the fighting arena. Every time he flicked and moved, there was a row of faint phantoms.

"What a speed!" Benjamin sighed.

This is equivalent to Benjamin overturning his praise of Hanselton and starting to admire the speed of the mummy assassin.

"Now it seems that the instructors insist on letting us run every day. They really have a very clear purpose!" Seeing this scene, a friend of Benjamin said with admiration.

The mummy assassin was so fast that several phantoms appeared behind his body. Almost every evasion movement was able to accurately avoid Hanselton's attack. A shallow wound was left on Hanselton's body. The mummy assassin seemed to be very careful. Every wound was extremely small. Every time Hanselton gasped heavily, the place that the light leather armor could not cover There are fine wounds, and a layer of sticky plasma has already hung on the exposed skin.

The Mummy Assassin was like a dexterous bee, circling around Hanselton.

Hanselton's movements became slower and slower, and his steps seemed extraordinarily heavy. Every time the mummy assassin left a wound on his body, he let out a low roar of rage. His shield could only protect himself. It cannot protect all parts of the body, and the heavy Roman sword cannot catch up with the nimble mummy assassin at all.

At this time, Hanselton was like a trapped beast, struggling weakly in the soft net woven by the hunter.

The role change between the prey and the hunter turned out to be so fast.

Hanselton thought of a sling in the center of the arena, maybe that rope could really save him from defeat.

He held the knight's light shield high, and threw his body towards the sling. How could the mummy assassin allow him to get the sling so easily, and he followed Hanselton like flying to stop it? he.Unexpectedly, Hanselton stopped suddenly, his body turned half a circle like a spinning top, and the knight's shield in his right hand was violently swung up to face the mummy assassin.

Unavoidable, the semicircular knight's shield lined up on the face of the mummy assassin at once, and the mummy assassin was directly shot more than ten meters away. The shield hit the head of the mummy assassin, bringing a strong sense of dizziness and making the mummy assassin There was no way to get up from the ground.

It turned out that running towards the sling was just Hanselton's feint, and the real killing move was this 'shield strike'.

Hanselton was covered in blood, he stepped over in two steps, stood in front of the mummy assassin's body, and stepped on the head of the mummy. This position was very close to me. I stood on the second floor stand, holding the marble in my hand. The sound of bone cracking can be clearly heard on the railing.

The surrounding nobles who supported Hanselton cheered in unison. Hanselton, like a real victor, stepped on the mummy assassin's head with one foot and raised his hand high. , kept striking the knight's light shield with the Roman sword at the surrounding audience, and the scene became heated again.

Hanselton asked loudly to the sidelines: "To live or to die?"

This is the right that the winner has over the loser. The nobles outside the court did not hesitate at all, and directly shouted: "Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"

Hanselton raised the Roman sword tall with one hand, and stabbed fiercely into the chest of the mummy assassin without a drop of blood flowing out.

At this moment, there was an extra arm holding a fist sword behind Hanselton, and the fist sword on that withered arm pointed directly at Hanselton.

It was too late for the onlookers on both sides to issue a warning, and Hanselton felt a sharp pain in his chest. He lowered his head in disbelief and saw his chest. A half-inch-long sword tip was exposed in his heart, and the hot blood shot out more than two meters away like a blood arrow. He fell on his back on the fighting arena, staring at the ceiling of the fighting arena with blank eyes, only Out of the gas, there is no gas in.

The victory was reversed all of a sudden, but it was Hanselton who fell down.

The slave owner on the side of the mummy assassin slammed the huge iron cage, stood up excitedly, and celebrated with high-fives with the nobles who were betting on the mummy assassin's victory.

Victory did not bring any action to the mummy assassin. He stood quietly beside Hanselton, holding the Roman sword on his chest with one hand, pulled out the Roman sword forcefully with his backhand, and threw it on Hanselton's chest. Beside him, clutching his injured heart, he staggered towards the outside of the arena.

I stood on the balcony on the second floor, looking at the colorful chips in my hand, I actually won.

"You can win this, Jia, your luck is really good!" Benjamin praised me.

I smiled and shook the chips in my hand, and said to Benjamin with a smile: "You should say that I have a sharp eye, and I can see it accurately!"

After that, there were obviously no upsets in the two consecutive fights. As expected, the cold-faced alien warrior Lizardman won the victory. He directly cut off the opponent's head with the scimitar in his hand.The strength and speed of that lizard man far surpassed that of his opponent, and his sword skills were very sophisticated and ruthless. He almost didn't leave any chance for his opponent when he came up. The two-handed sword of the swordsman had been cut off, and his throat was cut with one knife.

Often this kind of life-and-death duel can be seen clearly with just a few moves, and the moves are displayed continuously, just like a lizardman. At the end, the opponent has no power to parry...

Next was the Hammer Warrior Talma. At the beginning of the game, he fought hard with three hammers in succession, and he smashed to death the Shield Warrior who was much taller than himself, and quickly won the victory. .Sometimes in the arena of martial arts, having absolute power is often the magic weapon for victory.

Maybe it was stimulated by me. Benjamin and his two friends also won the bet, and they were extremely excited. Although they didn't win much, the happy mood is indescribable. For nobles to experience this kind of excitement, just a pastime
