Chapter 777 Reversal
The two people in the center of the arena were breathing heavily, their chests heaving.
The battle has been going on for quite some time, and it can be seen from the enthusiastic reaction of the audience in the stands that they are very satisfied with this battle.
After just a few simple tests, Bach and Rufus immediately fell into a fight.
Muscle against muscle, slash against split, the clash of weapons and shields continued, blood and sweat flew together, and the entire arena was filled with male hormones.
After fighting until now, Rufus had to admit that he had underestimated the newcomer in front of him. Bach's fighting skills may still be a bit rough, which is also a common problem among newcomers, but this man has a natural sense of danger.
Every time he set a trap, he would see through it at the last moment, and the cunning Germans would in turn use his traps to deal with him. The wound on Rufus's waist was the best proof.
Bach's sword was so fierce that it almost cut his bones, but after the referee stopped for inspection, he announced that the fight could continue.
Rufus was used to this.
This is the fate of a gladiator. Unless he is injured and can no longer move or one party surrenders, the battle will continue.
Rufus was used to fighting with injuries, but the wound on his waist did affect his next actions, especially his dodge movements. Fortunately, Bach on the opposite side was not much better. The latter's calf had also been injured before. He was stabbed.
The two are now just back on the same starting line.
In the ensuing battle, both sides deliberately exploited each other's weaknesses. Rufus forced Bach to put more of his body weight on the injured leg, while Bach forced Rufus to twist his waist continuously.
The blood stretched from Rufus and Bach's thighs and slid down to his ankles, and then dripped on the ground of the arena. It was cruel and bloody. This scene also excited thousands of people present.
However, this fanatical atmosphere did not affect Rufus. He was still trying to stare at his opponent. The expression on Bach's face made Bruce feel a little unhappy, not only because this newcomer was not nervous, but the most important thing was that Bach The eyes she looked at him were emotionless, as if she were staring at a dead person.
Rufus was a little confused. There were indeed some gladiators in the gladiator school who had enemies for various reasons. For the sake of attendance, the arena would also deliberately stir up some grudges. But Bach had just come here not long ago. During the closed training, Rufus couldn't remember when he provoked the Germans.
But no matter what, he must accept the victory in today's battle.
Rufus said to Bach, "The game is over, boy. Now I have to get serious. If you don't want to die, remember to kneel down and surrender to me."
Hearing this, Bach grinned and revealed a sinister smile, "So are these your last words?"
What answered him was the trident in Rufus' hand. The next moment, Rufus did as he said before, and began to press hard. The black scythe used amazing willpower to overcome the pain caused by the waist injury. In this obvious situation, When both parties had reached their physical limits, he actually forcibly raised himself back to full strength.
Then the situation of the battle began to change, tilting towards Rufus's side. Not long after, Bach was also stabbed in the left arm and lost the buckler in his hand.
Seeing this scene, the people who supported Rufus immediately stood up and cheered one after another.
Marcus's face in the audience suddenly became very ugly. He looked at Gabi angrily and said, "What's going on? Didn't you tell me that Rufus is the most suitable person to be Bach's opponent in the opening match?" ? As a result, I only saw him being beaten by Rufus all the time. If he only has this strength, how can we promote him as the successor of Sisnates? I spent such a large sum of money to buy one Such waste?"
Gabi also had a strange look on his face. He had been in charge of Bach's training, and he was the one who brought Rufus out. Both of them knew very well that the arrangement was made after detailed consideration, not that Bach You will definitely win, but even if you are going to lose, you shouldn't be in such a mess.
"I... don't know what happened, but I can assure you that Bach's strength does not stop there. I don't know why it became like this. What was he thinking, but deliberately losing this duel is not for him. There is no benefit to it.”
While the two were talking, the battle was gradually coming to an end. The situation on the field was becoming more and more unfavorable for Bach. He lost his shield and became even more embarrassed. In contrast, Rufus became more courageous as he fought, holding the fishing net in his hand. Also ready to go.
Finally, he waited until the moment when Bach's footsteps were completely scattered. Rufus seized the opponent's flaw and threw the fishing net in his hand. However, at the moment when the fishing net was released, he felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart for some reason. , and then he saw Bach change his previous appearance of having nowhere to escape. He transformed into a cheetah, escaped from the fishing net, and crashed directly into his arms.
Rufus wanted to raise his armguard, but it was still a step too late. The next moment Bach had rushed in front of him. At the same time, he inserted the dagger in his hand into Rufus' neck, stabbing him directly. Passed through the latter's throat.
The cheers that came from the stands were suddenly silenced.
The audience was stunned by this sudden turn.
Blood gushes from Rufus's mouth, his eyes are full of fear and confusion, he opens his mouth to say something, but all he can make is a ho-ho sound of unknown meaning.
But Bach knew what Rufus wanted to ask, and he leaned into the latter's ear, "Are you curious why I want to kill you? It's very simple. I checked your resume. Five years ago, you participated in the war against us. You must have participated in the war against us." You have also massacred many of my people, so let’s just repay the debt now. Even if I can’t kill you on the battlefield anymore, we can still meet in the arena, right?”
A flash of regret flashed in Rufus's eyes. It was not that he regretted joining the army, but that he didn't know Bach in detail before. Otherwise, even if he would lose the battle, he could still save his life as long as he surrendered in time.
The audience on the field was unaware of the conversation between the two, and immediately burst into new cheers after a brief silence.
Except for the man who held Rufus holding his head in pain, most of the rest were watching the excitement. Seeing Bach's wonderful performance to reverse the victory, they immediately gave the Germans applause and screams. As for the fall, With Rufus in a pool of blood, no one will remember him for a long time.
Marcus in the stands immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his previously worried heart returned to his stomach. Although Rufus' unexpected death made him feel a little painful, in comparison, he still cared more about Bach. Tomorrow's star, besides, this is an arena, so it's normal for someone to die.
Only Gabi seemed to think of something and frowned. He probably knew why Bach's performance was so miserable before. The Germans were obviously using this performance to paralyze Rufus, seeking a chance to kill him with one blow, and not allowing the opponent to beg for mercy. The choice to admit defeat, even at the cost of being injured several times on purpose.
But he could be considered to have won the duel after all, and Gabi finally just warned Bach with his eyes.
