Chapter 168: Unattainable Freedom

Gannix is an absolute legend in Capua City.

He was the Capua Champion before Kress and was cynical and dashing, adept at using dual swords and legs, and often killed his opponents with a single move.

Only one gladiator at the Rudes Training Ground has been freed so far, and that is Gannix.

When Gannix was the champion of Capua, due to the victory of a hundred battles, he also encountered the same situation as Li Nan, the odds of the casino were extremely low, resulting in fewer prizes, so Gannix, who likes fine wine and beauty and excitement, began to compete in a more dangerous blindfolded competition.

Docott had seen the way Gannix trained, so he said to Li Nan: "I don't have anything to teach you in terms of martial arts, and if you want to continue to improve, you can only keep training and killing." As for the blindfolded competition, you can start today, cover your eyes with strips of cloth and don't take it off at any time, so that after a month, I think you will definitely win. ”

After hearing these words, Li Nan, who was originally a little worried, suddenly felt enlightened.

What Dorcott said was right, Li Nan's skills were so strong that even if the Gauls trained for a month, he would not be his opponent, as long as he could get used to listening and arguing in the dark, it would definitely not be a problem to defeat Segwes.

Time was running out, so Li Nan immediately followed Docott's advice, blindfolded himself with a strip of cloth, and began to live in the dark.

In the first few days, Li Nan was stumbling even when walking, and he was embarrassed when eating, but soon he slowly got used to it.

While Li Nan was trying to survive and live in the dark, Ashur went to the bazaar alone, and he wanted to discuss with Vibis from Damascus about selling Kress.

Vibes' training ground is small, so this time he offered a good price to get Kress.

After completing the task, Ashur smiled and said, "Vibis, my master Quintus will probably agree to this price, please wait for good news." ”

Shoving a few silver coins into Ashur's hand, Vibis instructed, "This is your reward for helping to make this happen." ”

Ashur was about to return to the mansion of Batitas at the top of the hill when he heard someone behind him shouting, "Slave, take a step to speak." ”

Seeing that it was his master's nemesis, Soronis, Ashur hurriedly took a few steps, intending to get rid of this guy, otherwise if this matter reached the ears of the cautious Quintus, his own life might be in danger.

Two strong gladiator slaves appeared at the mouth of the alley, and Ashur could only stop and pretend to be calm and asked, "Soronis, what do you mean by this?" ”

Soronis came over under the protection of several guards, smiled at him and said, "Hehe, I don't have any ill will towards you, I just see that you are not bad, so I plan to give you a way out." ”

Ashur said with a strong sense of vigilance, "Thank you, but I ate well and dressed warmly in the Battitas family, so I don't need any way out." ”

"Really?" Soronis looked at Ashur and asked lightly, "Then the tragedy of the killing of Ovives' family must have nothing to do with you?" ”

After hearing this, Ashur's heart was shocked, Otvis was the cousin of the administrator of Capua, and if this matter was revealed, even Quintus would be dead, let alone their slaves.

Ashur pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know what you're talking about, the master is still waiting for me at home, so I'll leave first." ”

Soronis did not stop Ashur, but several gladiator guards drew their daggers from their arms.

Ashur wasn't a fierce man like Li Nan, Kress and Docot, and in the face of five or six armed gladiators, he knew he was no match for him, so he had to stop again.

"Ashur, I think you're a smart man, and you should know about my relationship with Administrator Kravis. I advise you, don't wait until you suffer to think of my life-saving straw. ”

After Soronis led the men away, Ashur stood there and pondered for a moment before walking towards the hilltop mansion......

"What! How would he know about this? After listening to Ashur's report, Quintus was furious.

Ashur also participated in the destruction that night, so he was also suspicious, but he was smart enough not to speak out to defend himself.

After Quintus was angry, he slowly calmed down, and speculated to himself: "There were only four people involved in this that night, and the Serres did not have the freedom to go out alone, and he had been staying at the training ground during this time, so he could be excluded." The rest is just you and Barka. ”

Hearing Quintus say this, Ashur hurriedly knelt down and said, "Master, I swear to the gods in the sky that it is definitely not my secret!" ”

Looking coldly at Ashur who was kneeling on the ground, Quintus smiled after half a sound: "Get up, I believe in your loyalty, otherwise you wouldn't have taken the initiative to report this to me." ”

Ashur secretly breathed a sigh of relief, got up and asked carefully, "Then master, do you think it's Barka?" ”

"After all possibilities have been ruled out, all that remains is the correct answer."

Quintus came to the table and poured a glass of wine, and after taking a big sip, he said slowly: "A few days ago, Barka offered to redeem himself and his little male pet Pylos, but I didn't agree, it seems that it should be him." ”

The money in the hands of all the slaves in the Ruthus Training Ground passed through Ashur's hands, so he knew that Barka had made a lot of money in the Battle of Shadow Slayer, which was enough for him and Pylos to redeem themselves for freedom.

The beast from Carthage had forgotten one thing, he had done so much dirty work for Quintus that anyone could leave the entire Ruthus training ground, but Ashur and Barka wanted to leave, and only after they died.

At this time, Quintus's heart was full of fear and anger, he couldn't figure out how much Soronis knew, and he didn't know if the administrator Kravis knew about his cousin's murder, and this feeling was too bad that there would be heavy troops at any time and place.

After thinking about it for a while, Quintus decided to settle inside and then outside.

Quintus said to Ashur, "Go and call Barka, and be careful not to alarm the others." ”

"Yes, master."

Barka came to the living room of the mansion, and Quintus smiled and handed him a glass of wine, "I have thought about it carefully, you have worked hard all these years, and I have decided to let you and Pylos go." ”

Hearing that he and his lover could finally be free, Barka said excitedly, "Really? Thank you hosts! ”

The happy Barka raised his head and drank the fine wine in the silver cup, and after putting down the cup, he asked eagerly, "Master, how much money do I need to pay for my life?" ”

Secretly calculating the time in his heart, Quintus smiled and said, "I don't want money, and when you die, I guarantee that your body will float freely in the cold water." ”

"What?"

Seeing the large number of guards pouring in, Barka finally knew that something was wrong at this time, and he quickly raised a chair to protect himself, but he was extremely strong, but at this time, he felt that the small chair in his hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Barka gasped and roared, "Quintus, why are you doing this? Am I doing something wrong? ”

"Why? Then tell me first, why did you betray me? Quintus asked angrily.
