During the festivities, the Capua Arena is played from morning to night, and the earlier the player appears, the less famous, and generally the worst gladiators will play and receive the fewest bounties, while the last to compete will receive a large bounty.

Taking advantage of the lunch break, Li Nan called Ashur and Vero to the corner.

"Ashur, you are the old man of this training ground, do you know who will compete for this qualification of this great general?"

Ashur smiled and said, "Of course, I know everyone here. At present, there are four strongest people in the training ground of Rudes, who can get two places, and besides you, that is the Kapuan god of war Kress the Gaul, the beast of Carthage, Barka, and the older Nias. ”

Li Nan had fought against Kress and Barka and knew their strength, but the Nias that Ashur said at the end was really not very familiar, so he asked, "Tell me about Nias." ”

"Well, this guy Nias came before me, he was originally a sword and shield gladiator, but then the arena became popular with fishing nets and tridents as sea fighters, so he changed his weapons. His fishing nets are used excellently, so don't underestimate him. ”

When Li Nan and the others were listening to Ashur about the enemy, Spartacus came over.

Seeing him coming, Li Nan beckoned, "Spartacus, where did you go just now?" ”

Spartacus said with a complicated expression: "I'll go to Quintus and ask about Sula's whereabouts." ”

"Sura?" Li Nan sighed and said, "Haven't you forgotten her?" ”

"She is the woman I love most in my life, I will not forget her, and one day I will let her come back to me!" Spartacus said in a firm tone.

Pointing to the tall courtyard walls around the training ground and those guards, Li Nan said helplessly: "You just got her back, you just took her to another cage." ”

"I don't care! As long as I can be with Sura, I don't care about anything! ”

This guy has been carried away by the pain of his wife being taken away, and Li Nan knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to ask, "Okay, how about you talked to Quintus?" ”

Speaking of his wife Sula, Spartacus's eyes appeared with a glint of hope, and he said excitedly: "Sulla was sold by that damned General Grebo, Quintus has now sent someone to find her, and her current owner is a Syrian, who is currently on a ferry on the Oronte River, and is being transported to Damascus. ”

"That's good news, so does Quintus plan to buy Sula back?"

Spartacus shook his head and said, "No, Quintus will not do anything to lose money, he told me that he will only save my beloved wife if I can get enough victories and money." ”

Obviously, Spartacus put all his hopes on Quintus, but Li Nan would not trust a Roman who relied on gladiators to make money, and he had nothing to say about his blind hope.

Of the three people present, Vero needs to make money in the arena to pay off gambling debts, Spartacus needs to make money to get his wife back, and Li Nan needs to make money to complete the task.

Vero and Li Nan are okay, although they lack money but still have their senses, but it is obvious that Spartacus's mind has been filled with the pain of longing, and after listening to Ashur's analysis, he even wants to seize the place of the general.

Ashur didn't care about himself, and said with a faint smile: "If you want to win the general spot, then at least defeat Barka and Nias, and of course your friend Huang Shu, only in this way can you play with Kress, but this is not a simple matter." ”

Spartacus looked at Li Nan, who treated him well, and said loudly: "Don't bother so much, I will directly challenge Kress!" ”

This impulsive guy didn't talk about it casually, for in the afternoon when the gladiators were training, he publicly challenged the black head coach Docot to challenge Kress.

The tall Docot came to Spartacus, looked at him fiercely and said: "Whoever can become a strong general, there will be the master Quintus and I according to your strength, what you need to do is train hard and obey orders!" ”

Spartacus raised his head and said: "I am a Thracian, my blood is full of fighting spirit, and I am confident that I will defeat every enemy!" ”

Dorcott looked at Spartacus with disdain and mocked, "Thrace? It's just a barren piece of land watered with urine, and there are so many people who are stronger than you, you're just a piece of trash. ”

Spartacus, who was already in a bad mood when his people were insulted by others, suddenly shouted violently, and fiercely swung his wooden sword and slashed at Docot.

Docot can be said to be the master of all gladiators, even Kress did not dare to guarantee that he was his opponent, and now Spartacus's actions immediately shocked everyone.

In the face of Spartacus's immeasurable attack, Docot smiled coldly, easily tripped him with a hook of his right foot, grabbed the wooden sword in his hand casually, and slapped Spartacus on the waist and abdomen in succession.

"Your attack is like a blind man's candle, there is no threat at all. If you don't have a steady pace, you can't gather the strength of your whole body, and your attack is weak and weak, and you're a waste! ”

After commenting, Docott unbuttoned his pants and poured a soak of urine on Spartacus's head.

After tying up his pants, Docott pointed at Spartacus with a wooden sword and said: "Gladiators in the arena, not all duels end in death, as long as you stretch out your right hand and two fingers and surrender to your opponent, although it is a shame, but there is hope to continue to live." ”

Spartacus, who fell to the ground, raised his head and said: "There is no begging for mercy in the oath I am talking about, and there is no word surrender in the dictionary of our Thracians!" ”

Li Nan and Vero saw that Docot's face was getting colder and colder, and hurriedly said to persuade him: "Docote, he made an unintentional mistake......

"Shut up and throw Spartacus into the dung pit!"

It's been a long time since I've seen a gladiator dare to challenge his authority, Dorcot looked at Li Nan and Vero, and said angrily, "Since you two are willing to do a lot of things, let's go with him!" ”

"Plop, plop, plop!" All three were thrown into the dung pit by the guards.

Standing waist-deep in the dung water, Vero said to Spartacus unhappily: "I thought you were a brave person, but I didn't expect you to be just a reckless fool!" ”

Spartacus looked at Vero and Li Nan, and said with a look of guilt: "I'm sorry, I've bothered you. ”

Li Nan, who had never fallen into such a filthy place, was holding back at this time to prevent himself from throwing up, and when he heard Spartacus's apology, Li Nan said angrily: "I know you want to save Sula as soon as possible, but why did you anger Docott like this?" Does this help? ”

"I just want to show myself and please Quintus." Spartacus explained.

"Whoa!" A bucket of manure was poured down.

Li Nan, Vero, and Spartacus hurriedly ducked to the side, trying to keep their bodies as little disgusting as possible.

Wiping the feces on his face, Li Nan said depressedly: "I can't see at all how our fecal bath here will help you save Sula." ”

Fecal water is more harmful to the human body, so at night, Dorcott still released the three people.

As soon as he washed off the dirt from his body with the only water he had, Docott walked in and announced in public: "The candidates for the generals have been decided, and Kress and Nias will be the candidates." ”
