Good guy, no wonder the emperor had to kill the star gladiator Brinos before. At first he thought it was just a matter of the emperor's personal preference. I know how messy the Romans are playing here, but it is obvious that the Roman emperor can't accept this messy situation.

Therefore, it is only natural to find a way to make Brinos die in the arena, and to teach this giant a lesson for the last time, which is why there was such a weird scene in the first arena.

In a sense, they are equivalent to being involved in the battle within the royal family.

But now, these staff members are reminding him that it's time to take the necessary stance.

Obviously, the words that Lao Luo said before made the staff regard Lao Luo as the Queen Mother's person-so these staff reminded him to find a way to draw a line with Lao Luo.After all, he has made great contributions in saving the family, and now he is handpicked by the emperor. He has obviously been branded with the emperor's brand, so how can he get involved with the Queen Mother's people?

"Ah, it seems that you understand."

Just looking at Dubin's face, several staff members nodded again and again.

"It's good to understand, it's good to understand... But don't let His Majesty trust you."

"This……"

Dubin still didn't know how to answer, but the whole person had already been put into a bedroom.

Immediately afterwards, he smelled a familiar aroma.

"Come out by yourself, I won't untie it for you."

A familiar voice sounded not far away, it was undoubtedly the Roman emperor.

"Please forgive me for summoning you in this way... I know this may not be respectful enough for a warrior, but there is no way, now I am surrounded by their eyeliners."

"Um……"

Dupin, who got up from the blanket, turned over and landed on the bed, then raised his head and looked at the Roman emperor sitting in front of the table.

Although she was still wearing the flaming red dress that was like a sexy costume, at this moment, the girl in red sitting behind the table could not see the charming look in the daytime at all, the serious gesture of flipping through the papyrus, and even There is a faint majesty of inviolability.

That's right, different from the frivolous and indulgent look in the daytime, maybe this is the real attitude of the girl in red.

"You mean... you summoned me?"

Seeing that the girl in red didn't say a word, Du Bin couldn't help frowning.

"Are you ready...to ask me to do something for you? First let me say that my companion and I need to be free. This is our only request. In order to achieve this goal, we will not hesitate to shed blood."

"Do you even hesitate to shoot at me?"

The girl in red narrowed her eyes.

"I see killing intent in your eyes, warrior, it seems that freedom is really important to you... But, but, maybe I can give you freedom back in the future, but not now."

"……What's the meaning?"

Dupin frowned even tighter.

"What do you mean you can't do it now?"

"Of course it's because my power is actually not that great."

The girl in red spread her hands, speaking calmly.

"Maybe in your eyes, this is nothing more than two gladiators gaining freedom, but in the eyes of others, this will become a full-fledged emperor who starts to build his own team... and still in a way that all nobles hate In this way, using talents directly from the gladiators, they would never accept such a thing anyway.”

"What's the matter... pretend I didn't say it."

Just halfway through the question, Dubin realized that he might have asked a stupid question—although it seemed to him that there was no problem in recruiting talents from gladiators, it was another matter in the eyes of the nobles .At least many nobles will be wondering, why does His Majesty the Emperor let them use the nobles, but instead use a gladiator who was born as a slave?

Is it mistrust?Or look down on them?Think they're worse than a gladiator?

No matter what kind of statement it is, it will embarrass these Roman nobles, and judging from the emperor's fear of the nobles, in the current Roman Empire, the power of the nobles is indeed quite powerful-so if you think so, the Roman emperor It's normal not to give them freedom directly, after all, this is not just a question of wrestling, but a political event.

"But now you're calling me again..."

"Ah, it seems that you want to understand that layer."

The girl in red nodded.

"Indeed, if I use gladiators to build a team, it will arouse fear from many people... But that doesn't mean that I can't build my own team. Drinking water will choke to death. Do people have to never drink water? No That reason."

"Uh, I don't understand what you said."

Du Bin felt that he was going to be dizzy, so he decided to get straight to the point.

"Just say it straight, whether to let us go free or not."

"If you must have an answer...it is not for now."

The girl in red sighed.

"Although I really want you to be the commander of my guards, it's obviously not a good time... The reason why I summon you now is just to get you, a capable person, before them, at least not Let you be drawn by them. But if you want to give you an identity... Sorry, I can't do it now."

"...can't do it?"

Dupin frowned.

"Even if you are the emperor of Rome?"

"Even if I'm the emperor of Rome."

The girl in red nodded.

"Perhaps in your eyes, the emperor is a symbol of dignity. As long as you sit in this seat, you can call the wind and rain and be omnipotent... But in fact, even the emperor still has things that he can't do, and there are still many things he can't do. things."

Saying this, the girl in red suddenly shook her head and laughed.

"It's like now, within five steps, if you rush over and attack me, I don't have the ability to resist at all, do I?"

"Um……"

Dubin, who was just about to make a move, paused.

Well, he really wanted to do something just now. On the one hand, he wanted to try a more straightforward speed-running method, such as directly holding the emperor hostage in exchange for freedom; on the other hand, the dignified posture of the girl in red made him a little Not getting used to it - this kind of thing is more subtle, the more inviolate the posture is, the more he wants to come up and punch two.

In a sense, this kind of thinking is like a feline who always likes to push things off the table. Although he himself knows that it is abstract, but itchy hands are itchy hands.

However, the itching is now noticeable.

If the Roman emperor still put on that inviolable posture, he might still be interested, but now that the girl in red is just messing around, he is too lazy to do anything—after all, as the other party said just now, even if he It doesn't make much sense to start here. After all, although the matter between him and Lao Luo is still in the category of gladiators, it is no longer something that a mere Roman emperor can decide.

"So... what are you going to ask me to do?"

Dupin simply relaxed.

"Will you help you seize power? I can't do this. I'm not good at this kind of thing. I'm only good at fighting and killing people."

"Having combat power is enough, what I need is your force."

Feeling that Dubin gave up the attack, the girl in red also relaxed a lot.

"The next thing I need you to do is to conceal your identity and help me bring the daytime assassin alive."

"...Assassins during the day?"

Dupin vaguely remembered.

If he's not mistaken, it's definitely Arturia.Although the body shape has changed a lot through disguise, and the dress is also very different, but the familiar feel after picking it up is still easy to recognize, and the sense of touch can't deceive people.

But according to the meaning of the Roman emperor...bring it here alive?Does that mean it's still possible to die in prison?

"Of course... so you have to hurry up."

Hearing Dubin's doubts, the girl in red nodded slowly.

"After all, if there are no accidents, this was planned by my dear mother... An assassin who looks exactly like me, how could she leave such conspicuous evidence?"

Roman Holiday, Passion in the Arena: Chapter 150, Chapter 140, The Legend of the Fastest Death ([-] words)

In a sense, this is the first time Artoria has been arrested in a real sense.

But it was not because of the defeat, but because of the failure of the assassination. As for why the assassination failed, of course it was because of too much bad luck——Artoria swears that she really won by one step during the day, the martial arts of the Roman emperor It's far less powerful than she imagined, at least compared to her.

This should have been a very smooth assassination operation, but why did it become like this?

"I really..."

Whenever she thinks of this, Arturia feels depressed for a while.

The reason for all this, of course, is because of that foreign devil, God knows why that foreign devil appeared here, and he was still a gladiator—but it’s too late to say anything now, her assassination plan has gone bankrupt, and She herself was imprisoned.

It stands to reason that she should choose to reopen at this time. After all, after being imprisoned, her mission goal of causing Rome to fall into chaos will naturally be impossible to carry out.

But Artoria didn't want to leave just like that.

She is still a little dissatisfied.

"Why! That's my sword!"

Thinking of the fiery red sword she had snatched, Arturia was a little dizzy with anger. This was the first time she had snatched a good-for-nothing guy. Even if the combat power was excluded, this thing was extremely commemorative Meaningful—but her sword was taken back just because of that damned foreign beast who disrupted the situation. Who would accept such a thing?

That is her sword!It was she who worked so hard to snatch it!

"They must be made to pay, they must be made to pay!"

In the cell, Arturia gritted her teeth.

As for the scope of "them", she hasn't figured it out yet, but that foreign devil must be the first one—of course, before that, she must get her sword back first, after all, she would indeed be able to fight with her bare hands. Can't beat it.

So, before all this begins, she has one more preparation that must be done.

That is, jailbreak.

Yeah, why is this her first arrest?Of course, it was because it was impossible for her to be imprisoned—at least her former enemies knew this, so those enemies would often seek to kill her before the battle, rather than capture her back alive.

After all, for a top-level knight as powerful as her, it was impossible for an ordinary cell to hold her.If he really took her back alive, it would give her a chance to sneak into the inside and blossom in the center.

Just like now, with just a struggle of her arms, the dragon-like mighty power made her easily break the solid wooden cage.

It's a pity that those gladiators from Britain died too quickly, otherwise they could have created more chaos for her, but even if she is alone now, it's not impossible for her to do things—as a top knight, she knows where to be Carry out destruction, know where the weakest enemies are in the city of Rome, and know who most expect chaos to come.

After all, she was really a top knight, and she couldn't show it before, and it was only because she was suppressed by that foreign devil for too long.

And like now, when the foreign devil is not around, she can still exert the destructive power of a top fighter after all.

"Is the nearby guard legion..."

Looking at the guards pouring into the prison, Artoria, who knew she had failed in stealth, shook her head helplessly.

She would be found out after escaping from the prison. After all, the way she broke through the door was a bit too violent after all—but just this few guards, do you want to stop her?
