Chapter 780 We Should Be the Winning Group

Although the scene in front of them happened too suddenly and looked extremely unreal, the referee still awarded the victory to Zhang Heng and Varo.

The main reason is that there is really no dispute about the result. Julius and Asclei's necks were still in front of the blade, their faces were embarrassed, and they seemed to have no power to fight back. However, because Zhang Heng and Varro ended too quickly, in a moment No other opponent can match them.

But judging from the appearance of the two of them, it seemed that they didn't need much rest, especially since Varro basically ran two meters before the battle ended without even breaking a sweat. Because the victory came so easily, it even gave Varro a feeling of excitement. There was an unreal feeling. It wasn't until Zhang Heng retracted his swords and returned to his side that Varo woke up as if from a dream.

"we won?"

"Yes, but it's only the first round." Zhang Heng replied, his expression looked very calm, as if what just happened was just an insignificant thing.

On the other side, Julius and Asclei looked a little downcast. Their defeat was too ugly and they didn't show any strength. This was a big loss in the eyes of the audience, especially since the two of them were not well-known. After the melee, Likely demanded to be killed by disgruntled viewers.

But fortunately, there will be a battle in the loser group later, and because they were defeated suddenly, they were not injured or consumed much. They can still have some advantages in the subsequent battle in the loser group. Of course, they also need to show up next I tried my best.

On the other side, Nasika also started to exert his strength. He had fought against his opponent before, and both sides knew the basics. The strength of the opponent's group was not weak, and they took the initiative to find Nasika.

Nasika knew what the other party was up to. They ignored other soft persimmons and instead picked the hardest rock. They had no intention of winning from the beginning. They were obviously implementing a loser group strategy and were preparing to lose. Try to cause damage to Nasika's group as much as possible and consume Nasika.

I have to admit that this plan at least sounds good. If everything goes well, although Nasika, the biggest favorite, will pass the first round of the showdown, he will also be injured and is likely to be eliminated in the next battle, or both sides will be eliminated later. If they face each other again in the final battle, their chances of winning will also increase.

Of course, this strategy of deliberately falling into the loser group is also quite risky. Defeat means that the audience's love will be reduced. In other words, it will increase the risk of death. Therefore, celebrity gladiators generally will not lose on purpose. , and secondly, they may not be able to fight their way out of the loser group.

Another big problem is that plans don't always go the way they envision. For example, now, Nasika suddenly broke out. He was different from other gladiators because he had enough strength and the large shield in his left hand could not only block, but also serve as an offensive weapon.

If you were hit by him with a shield and a person, you might be thrown away, or you might be hit and fractured.

During the fight, the two opponents were also focused on guarding against Nasika's move, but they still underestimated their opponents, not only Nasika, but also Nasika's partner.

The latter is not as famous as Nasika, or he is a bit overshadowed by Nasika, but this does not mean that he can be ignored. In fact, the two partners have always cooperated with each other and complemented each other. Nasika is an attacking type. , and his partner is a harassing type. With him on the opposite side, you will often find that you have no choice and have to fight Nasika head-on.

Now their opponents were in such a situation. When they wanted to retreat, one of them was entangled. Then Nasika came to kill him. Seeing that his opponent was ready to avoid collision, Nasika cunningly put away his big shield and directly struck. The sword slashed at the opponent's side. Although the opponent eventually dodged it, it still forced the opponent to reveal his flaw.

Then Nasika's partner struck out and cut one of the opponent's arms.

The referee on the side didn't even raise his eyelids. The situation was similar to that of Bach Rufus's battle. The sword cut was not deep. Although it looked like a lot of blood was shed, it was not fatal, so he would not take the initiative. The fight was called off, and not long after another person was injured, also slightly injured. Only then did the two realize what Nasika wanted to do.

Broken Bones obviously saw their plan, so he treated them the same way they did. Not only did he want to defeat them, he also wanted to consume them so that when they fell into the loser group, they would not be able to win in the next round. The situation was about to become very serious. Only then did the two of them remember that Nasika was known for taking revenge. However, it was too late for them to regret it now, and they were completely riding a tiger.

They couldn't beat each other, but if they surrendered after only being injured a little, the audience couldn't explain it at all, so the two of them had no choice but to fight hard. No matter what, they had to hold on for a while before admitting defeat.

But at this moment, a sneer flashed across Nasika's eyes, and then he suddenly changed his previous way of killing people. He was caught off guard and the next person was hit directly in the chest with his big shield. This time Nasika didn't If he kept his hand, the unlucky guy was knocked straight away, and several bones in his body would definitely be broken. When his partner saw that the situation was not good, he was about to throw away his weapon and admit defeat, but he was entangled again at this fatal moment.

During this delay, Nasika struck again. He raised his sword and cut off one of the target's arms.

This cruel and bloody scene immediately aroused cheers from the stands. Broken Bones was popular for a reason. His cold and violent fighting style was the violent aesthetics of that era.

However, Nasika, who was bathed in blood and raised his hands to the sky, found that the crowd's cheers this time seemed not as high as before, and when he looked back, he found that Varo was standing aside like a melon-eating crowd, admiring his heroic appearance. .

Nasika frowned, realizing that he might have inadvertently done Varro and Zhang Heng a favor by directly reducing a pair of competitors for them in the loser group.

But the next moment he saw the referee make a gesture, indicating that he and his partner should come to Zhang Heng.

Nasika was a little confused and said, "We should be in the winning group."

The referee nodded in agreement, "You two are the only ones left in the winning group."

Nasika showed a look of shock. In order to retaliate against his opponent who was making small calculations this time, he spent a little more time than usual, but it was not too long. The other side should only be able to fight in one round at most, but according to the referee's rules It can be said that Zhang Heng and Varona have completed two rounds of fighting and won both rounds.

How can this be? Nasika cast doubtful eyes on Varo, only to find that the latter's face was no less doubtful than his.
