Alien Knights

Chapter 272: Gladiatorial show

Todd's ten opponents are faintly divided into three camps.

Three North Islanders with carved patterns, each with two hand axes, stood at the forefront of the team.

Five warriors of barbarian tribes, four men and one woman, stood in the middle.

The two who fell in the end, one tall, thin and tall, and one thick and strong, looked a bit like people from the southern plains.

Assessing the strength of the enemy in front of him, Todd pulled a sword in his long sword and placed the shield on his chest.

In his mind, he remembered what Cumberland once said to him on the battlefield: Any enemy in the form of a battle group, even if they cooperate with each other, there will be holes in the formation when marching and attacking. .

Todd placed his body behind the shield and adopted a defensive stance. He looked at the ten people in front of him, wondering if everything was as said.

as predicted.

Seeing that Todd did not attack, there was a small dispute over the tactical arrangement between the ten gladiators.

In the end, the North Islanders, eager to remove Todd's head, took the lead in attacking.

The three gladiators ignored the loud scolding of others behind them, suddenly increased their speed to the fastest speed, and rushed straight towards Todd.

After estimating the time and distance, Todd retreated slowly to the rear, opening the gap between the enemies.

In the exclamation of the audience, Todd lowered his body, first used a shield to block the axe of the person with the fastest charge, then bullied his body forward, got into the enemy's arms, and put the enemy on the shield. , Suddenly lifted.

The Beidao warrior, his feet off the ground, his body was pushed into the air by the huge force from the shield.

Todd saw the right time, his body turned over 360 degrees in the air, taking advantage of the moment the enemy fell, the long sword drew a graceful arc in the air, cutting off the opponent's neck impartially.

The sword light revolved, and blood spattered.

The headless body fell to the ground, and the entire arena suddenly fell into silence.

Less than fifteen seconds after the opening, one of Todd's opponents was actually killed by a single move.

But what really stunned everyone present was more than that.

The repertoire of Northern Gladiator is simple and tedious. Therefore, few people have seen this set of dance-like combos in front of them.

The shouts of applause and cheers came and went one after another, and the atmosphere on the scene was like explosives ignited by sparks, erupting completely in the "red circle".

The two remaining North Island fighters in the field stepped back a few steps in the same direction. After looking at each other, the two gritted their teeth and raised their axes side by side to charge Todd again.

Taking a deep breath, Todd gave up the defense and ran quickly towards the two opponents.

Seeing that he was about to collide with the two of them, Todd suddenly leaned back and knelt on his knees. With the rest of the running and the muddy water on the ground, he assumed a posture of "iron bridge" and slid through the enemy's all the way. Encircle.

The axe blade passed through Todd's nose, and the two North Island gladiators looked at their sides in disbelief, and dodged the attacking opponent by sliding.

When he was wrong, Todd waved his sword with his right hand across one person's lower abdomen; hit the shield with his left hand, hitting the other person's knee, and severely wounded the two North Islanders to the ground.

The gladiator with his stomach slashed, his intestines flowed all over, lying on the ground wailing ceaselessly, seeing that he was dead.

The other person whose knee was crushed struggling to turn around, just about to observe the enemy's position, a high-speed rotating and enlarging shield in his pupils completely led him into the endless darkness.

Under the gaze of the audience, Todd's series of actions, sprinting, lying on his back, sliding, slashing, and shielding, were like moving clouds and flowing water, all in one go.

In a blink of an eye, three gladiators from the North Island were killed and wounded.

Another tsunami-like cheers erupted from the audience, and the father and son sitting in the front row stood up and looked towards the field. The young man clapped his palms vigorously, his eyes full of intoxication and longing: "Awesome! What a great fight! Have you seen it? Those fighting movements are like dreams, so violent, yet they embodies the infinite. Beauty!"

The older man, as the father, watched Todd walk to the corpse, retrieved the shield, shook his head and said, "My child, although those movements look gorgeous, they are not very feasible in actual combat. When you use a shield, While blocking the attack, it is the most effective and safest way to stab directly with a sharp sword. If a combat technique like his is on the battlefield..."

Finding that his son was not listening to his own words at all, the older man sighed and said to himself: "However, having said that, those actions seem to be pleasing to the eye..."

Wipe the blood from the shield on the clothes of the deceased. Todd looked back and saw that the remaining seven gladiators on the opposite side were full of fear. They looked at each other and were frightened.

Thinking back to his actions just now, Todd laughed.

First use a shield to overturn the enemy, and then flip to cut the enemy's first level. This combo comes from the action game "God of War" and is also the signature finishing technique of the famous Kui Ye; as for the sliding shovel to pass through two enemies In the middle, we use weapons to hit the left and right enemies separately. This move comes from the action game "Conan the Barbarian", which is also a common action routine in Hollywood blockbusters.

These two sets of moves are far more appreciative than practical, and if they are placed on the battlefield, they will definitely be scolded by Cumberland as "death-hunting."

Only Todd, a monster that has been transformed by an ability, can use these attacking moves in a catwalk mode regardless of safety and security under the premise that power, speed, and reaction ability completely crush the opponent.

Moreover, for the "Red Circle" arena, Todd also discovered an interesting fact. The audience paid to come in to watch the refreshing battles and gorgeous moves, but the gladiators here fight to the death and live in order to survive. In terms of entertainment and viewing, it is far from meeting the requirements.

Just as Todd was thinking, the remaining seven gladiators moved.

Five warriors of the barbarian tribe formed a semicircular formation and slowly approached Todd.

The other two plain people who fell behind began to talk quietly.

Ackerman, holding a bow and arrow, said without squinting his eyes: "Casper, what should we do? Are we helping the five people in front of us, or are we gambled here?"

The knight holding a huge tower shield replied in a dull voice, "Look again."

Seeing the five barbarian warriors standing in a circle, tightly surrounding him, Todd stood calmly on the spot, patted his shield with a long sword, and shouted.

The two barbarian swordsmen attacked first. One of them attacked Todd's head one after the other, and the other aimed at his bottom plate.

Another barbarian spearman approached from Todd's side, and the weapon in his hand stabbed towards his waist.

The remaining two barbarian warriors, one is a ranged soldier with a slingshot, and the other is an assassin with a short sword.

Five weapons were delivered at the same time, almost sealing up Todd's space for action.

When everyone in the court thought that Todd was about to be injured, the latter completed a series of incredible moves.

Todd first turned sideways to avoid the spear stabbing; then he raised his shield and shot the slingshot at his rock, using the shield's bounce to change the direction, and hit a barbarian swordsman in the eye; then, the sword's The blade shook slightly, and directly broke the hand muscles of the other swordsman; in the end, as if he had long eyes behind him, his short body avoided the assassin's backstab, and kicked the opponent out again.

In just two or three seconds, Todd's movements were so fast that people thought there was an illusion. When the people reacted, the attacks of the five barbarian gladiators all returned to no avail, and three of them were seriously injured.

Standing on the high platform for the ceremony, Conch Urban looked at Todd in the center of the venue, stunned, facing Fogar beside him, stammering and asking: "He... how did he do it?!"

The latter is not much better than him, it's just a **** expression.

After the shock, the five barbarian gladiators, whether injured or not, struggled to return to the fighting position.

During this period, Todd just watched them quietly, without making any movements.

On the other side, Kasparti lifted the tower shield in his hand and nodded towards Ackerman: "It's time, we have enough gambling chips."

The two joined the formation of the five gladiators, facing Todd, forming a seven-on-one situation.

After waiting for everyone to be in place, the seven attacked at the same time.

Todd is in the shadow of the sword, like a butterfly walking through the flowers, evading attacks, looking for flaws, and counterattacking.

The audience in the "Red Circle" arena, even the most qualified customers, have never seen such a wonderful and unbelievable battle. The seven people who formed an encirclement circle surrounded one person to fight, and the encircled people could still faintly gain the upper hand.

Others may not know, but Todd knows what happened.

Two new plains gladiators entering the encirclement, one holding a huge shield and the other using a bow and arrow. It seems to be forming an encirclement with the other five people, and flanking Todd. But in fact, these two people are helping him very covertly, resisting the attacks of other gladiators.

Casper waved his huge shield, seeming to hit Todd, but from the side, it blocked the swordsman’s stab; Ackerman’s bow was clearly shot at Todd’s shoulder, but inexplicably missed and sealed. The position of the assassin.

Discovering the "secret assistance" of these two people, Todd took advantage of the gap in the battle to observe the two "helpers".

The tall and strong shield soldier ~lightnovelpub.net~ He has no impression; however, he always felt that he had seen the thin and tall archer there.

The fight lasted 45 minutes from beginning to end. Five barbarian gladiators suffered three deaths and two wounds; the two plains gladiators were safe with archers, but the one who used the tower shield was injured in the thigh.

Finally, looking at the remaining five opponents, exhausted and slumped to the ground, there was no more fighting intention. Todd gave up the pursuit, but raised his sword and shield high, signaling to the audience that the battle was over and there should be no more fighting and bloodshed on the court.

In the surging voices, the blushing king of Ulster, Conch Urban, loudly announced the decision to pardon.

The death penalty against Boyle was changed to slavery; as for the remaining five gladiators, they agreed to give him the right to survive.
