Chapter 119 The Heart of a Gambler

Chapter 119 The Heart of a Gambler
Commodus's face is indeed very wonderful now, with anger, fear, resentment, and various negative emotions alternating on his face. Under the beating of the candlelight, his pale face looks very strange.

"He didn't stop him! Could it be that Lucia lied to me? It's impossible! Quintas' report is that all the soldiers who went to ambush in the valley died! Does this mean that someone rescued him?"

Because Lucia didn't mention the fact that the end of the season is alive, the end of the season is still a dead person in the perception of Quintas and Commodus.

Besides, even if he knew, he would never associate the rescue of Maximus with the end of the season. After all, who can kill dozens of guards?This is simply not something that human beings can do, even the bravest people recorded in their history can't do it!
"But, who has such a great ability to save him! Could it be those congressmen!?"

"It must be! Only these old things that are unwilling to decay will do this."

As Commodus kept talking to himself, his face gradually calmed down, only a pair of dark eyes, showing the same vicious look as the night he killed his father.

"I can't resist the legion led by Maximus at all. It seems that some extraordinary measures are needed. Even if I say that I am cruel and my reputation will fall to the bottom, I will keep my position as Caesar!"

"As long as Maximus is dead, hehe, as long as he is dead..."

Like a last-ditch gambler, Commodus said coldly, and walked out of the hall, tonight, he is doomed to sleepless.

……

In the team of thousands of people, there was no noise, only the sound of footsteps as they walked rapidly, which broke through the dawn and made the ground tremble.

Maximus put back on his general armor and a dark red cloak, and with his undulating body on the horse, he threw a beautiful wave behind him.

Glancing at the route ahead, Maximus looked at Ji Mo beside him. To be precise, he looked at the wound on Ji Mo's arm, and frowned deeply.

"Why did you make a gash in your own arm?"

The voice was low and drifted into Ji Mo's ears with the wind, causing Ji Mo to slowly retreat from his own world.

Shaking his head, he said, "It's okay, I just want to prove something!".

To explain, Ji Mo looked at the wound that had stopped bleeding, and with Maximus' toothache on his face, Ji Mo took out a tactical knife and gently cut the wound again without the other soldiers noticing. Let the wound return to the state of oozing blood again.

Maximus shook his head and said nothing. He knew that the end of the season must have his own reasons for doing so. Besides, after he knew that he had magical abilities, he expressed his calmness when he saw the wound.

"There is indeed a strange feeling, which is brought about by the self-healing ability. Although it comes and goes, it will slip away if I don't pay attention, but I can be sure that my feeling is not wrong!".

"Only when I am injured, that strange feeling will appear. In order to grasp that feeling, self-mutilation is really inevitable in the future!"

With a murmur, Ji Mo smiled wryly, he wanted to catch the feeling when the wound healed, because he felt that as long as he caught that thing, it would be very useful to him!

Time passed little by little, and when the sky was getting dark, at the end of the quarter, they stopped at a place tens of miles away from Rome. After a day's journey, the soldiers were inevitably exhausted.

Get a night's rest and refresh yourself, tomorrow is the time to head to Rome.

As for being discovered by Commodus?

Hehe, he should have known it a long time ago, but his Imperial Guard, no matter in terms of number or combat capability, can't compare with the experienced Felix Legion.

As long as they dare to come, they will die early. There will be no surprise in this.

……

Standing at the highest point of the palace, listening to Quintus' report behind him, Commodus's face was as sinister as ever.

"Since they're here, are you ready to tell you?" Commodus turned around, saw the hesitation on Quintas's face, smiled sinisterly, walked up to the other party, and smiled softly, With a sharp look in his eyes, he asked, "Are you ready?".

"It's done, but it's inevitable that there will be some..."

"It's nothing but, either he dies or I die. At this time, is the method still important? Hehe!"

"Yes... my majesty!" Quintas lowered his head, looked at the figure of Commodus, and unconsciously felt a trace of regret for choosing Commodus in the first place.

The next day, when the first ray of morning light pierced the dim sky, the Felix Legion under the leadership of Maximus had already lined up in neat formation and was slowly heading towards Rome.

However, what puzzled everyone was that until they reached the walls of Rome, they still did not encounter an enemy, not even an enemy on the walls.

Standing at the city gate, looking at the wide open city gate, smelling the unusual smell, Maximus touched his chin and murmured: "What's going on?".

Ji Mo squinted his eyes, guessing if this was a trap, and then said, "I went in with some cavalry to investigate!".

Maximus nodded and warned: "Be careful!".

Putting on a helmet that could cover his face, Ji Mo led dozens of cavalry and rushed in through the open city gate.

However, no one, still did not find an enemy.Even the civilians in the city seemed to have smelled an unusual atmosphere. Only some courageous people poked their heads carefully through the windows of their homes, watching the cavalry rushing in.

After thinking for a while, Ji Mo said: "Separate, check carefully, and be careful!"

"Yes!" The cavalry responded and left one after another.

A quarter of an hour later, the cavalry came to the end of the season one after another, saying that they did not find any danger, but the last few cavalry brought news.

"All the imperial guards shrank in the palace? Do you know what's going on?" Ji Mo asked.

"The opponent threw this from the palace wall!" A cavalryman handed a roll of parchment to Ji Mo's hand as he spoke.

At the end of the season, he took a look, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Without saying anything, Commodus, who was driven to a corner, did have the heart of an unscrupulous gambler.

However, it also allows the end of the season to do exactly what it is supposed to do.

"What an unexpected result!" With a murmur, Ji Mo handed the parchment to the previous cavalryman and said, "Hand over to the general!".

"Yes!" The cavalry responded and left quickly.

Glancing at the remaining cavalry, at the end of the season: "Others beware!"

"Yes!"
