Your type of online game is too fake, right?

Although she usually does not stick to trifles, and sometimes even goes wild to participate in the gladiatorial fights in person, she has never been stupid with the title of a virtuous king.

There are some things that she just doesn't want to admit.

But did she really admit it?That's not necessarily the case.If she really didn't realize this, she wouldn't have prepared one after another, and even her bedroom closet was full of equipment.But if she really had to admit it...it wouldn't be easy.

It is too difficult for the biological mother to admit as a child that she wants to do something to herself.

Although there is actually no relationship between her and the so-called biological mother, after all, her parents were always absent when she was growing up.According to her father, it was because she passed away early. She had already died of excessive sexual indulgence when she was three years old. As for her mother... that woman had more important things to do.

To say the least, whenever she wanted to seek some family comfort from her mother like other children, her mother always said, not now, there are more important things to do-of course, this is not the case. On behalf of her mother treated her badly, her living conditions have always been very good, whether it is education, daily life, food, drink and clothing, or those expensive luxuries, as long as she wants, she will always have the best .

Apart from normal parents, this is the only thing she can't get.

Once upon a time, she was also confused. She didn't know whether her mother treated her well or not. At that time, she was still very young, and her way of thinking about things was still very naive, but as she studied day after day, with those With the careful teaching of the top teachers, she was gradually trained to be a king, and she finally realized that things were not as simple as she thought.

In other words, she has been thinking wrong all along, her mother's thinking has never been on the same level as hers.

Unlike her, an ordinary person who is still yearning for family love, her mother has long been a political creature through and through.The woman who had gained power in repeated struggles had already turned into a beast chasing power—in order to get close to power, that woman even poisoned her first stepfather, just to get close to Rome at that time. Emperor Claudius, her great-uncle.

Of course, her uncle, the second stepfather, also died of food poisoning after all.But everyone understands this kind of thing, and some accidents are not accidents in nature.

After all, if that uncle didn't die, it wouldn't be her turn to become emperor.

She was not the biological descendant of the previous emperor, but was raised as an adopted son.At that time, she could almost foresee that she would probably become an ordinary nobleman in the future, away from court disputes, and she might be able to do something she liked at that time—but her mother defeated other competitors with an iron fist The one who put her on the throne with one hand.

Indeed, this may still be regarded as a proof that her mother treated her well, and it is a manifestation of the family affection that originated in the blood.

and so……

When will it be her turn to die?

This is not alarmist talk, but her clearest feeling after becoming the emperor—the supreme power cannot be touched by others, even close relatives.Her mother already has the power to control the emperor's support, and it is almost inevitable to go further.

Of course, if she is obedient enough, it's okay, at least this imperial power is still under the control of that woman.

But she couldn't be so obedient.

It's not that she doesn't want to compromise, but that the two sides have a fundamental conflict, which has started since she was a child.She likes peaceful days, but that woman is more keen on stormy waves. She wants to study philosophy to relieve pain, but that woman never allows her to touch those books, or even allow her to read the works of other speakers—she can Learning to ride horses, fight, write poems, sing, perform, you can learn all the things that noble children are passionate about, but only those that can make her really strong, she has no access to at all.

"This is to make me a waste."

Smart, she quickly realized the problem.

A waste, or a puppet that is easy to manipulate, this is what her mother wants.As for her own thoughts, that doesn't matter.She only needs to be a tool, a human seal that can allow that woman to exercise power.

As we all know, once things like tools are not easy to use, people tend to be more inclined to change tools.

Just like it is now.

When she saw the assassin during the day, she had already realized that as a tool, as a human-shaped stamp, those little actions she made eventually attracted the attention of that woman—especially her attention to Brino. This is not allowed, even if it is just a gladiator, but in a sense, the opponent's place is more important than him, the Roman emperor.

After all, for that woman, one side is a new lover, and the other side is just a human seal.

When there is a conflict between people and tools, the tools are naturally lost.

So Brinos was sent over. Behind this two-meter-tall terrifying burly man was a full army of 6000 men, and after that, two other armies would come from outside the city— —A total of 8000 troops entered the city in the name of the Qing emperor, but their fundamental purpose was to let her, the Roman emperor, die in the chaos.

This is why Brinos, who is an alien gladiator, was sent to lead the army, just because this giant man could never restrain the cruelty and tyranny in the center, and after she was brutally killed as an emperor, her A mother can execute the criminal at will to quell the hatred-everything is so intertwined, which is obviously only her mother's handwriting.

Maybe it would have been better if the target wasn't her.

"I knew it would be like this..."

When she saw that giant man, she already had some regrets.

She could see the giant man's eyes, and she could understand the meaning in those eyes. It was a beast-like instinct, a pure desire after giving up reason.

This is also the reason why she wanted to kill this giant man before. She can only say that her mother is really good at picking people.

Of course, it's too late to say these things now, it's a done deal, everything is a foregone conclusion, after all, she failed to kill this disgusting person, and was even going to be killed by the other party instead.

"I knew it earlier... I might as well give it to him just now."

Thinking of what just happened, she couldn't help but sigh.

Rather than being ravaged by this alien gladiator after the defeat, it is better to agree to the warrior she personally selected just now. Although that warrior is also a gladiator, at least he looks pleasing to the eye, and the other party has saved her life anyway. , It's nothing to make a promise with your body.

It's just that now... it may be too late to commit suicide. After all, those alien races are as barbaric as beasts. Even if she kills herself, the giant man will probably desecrate her while the body is still warm. Looking at her dead body wantonly, even though her neck is still spurting blood...

"……what?"

Nero froze suddenly.

In front of her, the giant sweater named Brinos was clutching his neck, spewing out blood like a fountain.

"how come……"

Before Nero came back to his senses, Brinos' hideous and hideous head flew up.

It was at this time that Nero saw clearly who the person who did all this was.

It was the warrior she personally selected, the man who had saved her life—although she had vaguely realized that this man might be deliberately hiding his strength when he was saved during the day, but she never thought of it , the strength hidden by the other party has reached the point where Brinos can be killed in one face-to-face.

You must know that Brinos is a gladiator who has experienced many battles, and his powerful skills have kept him from dying in the arena until now.And that exaggerated physique of two meters, after putting on the whole body of armor, is like a humanoid siege vehicle, nothing can subdue such a monster except the bed crossbow, even the bed crossbow may not be able to do it arrive.

But it was such a terrifying giant who could be called a humanoid monster, but his head was chopped off after just meeting him.

How exactly is this done?

Nero couldn't understand, the little martial arts she had learned couldn't make her see what happened just now--right now, she only knew that the invincible giant was killed just now, and the indestructible man in her eyes The strong enemy fell instantly.

Perhaps, this is the hope of living?

But can she really survive?

Perhaps it is impossible, after all, there is only one Brinos who died, and behind Brinos, there are three full-fledged legions, a total of 8000 people-these fully armed Roman soldiers are all There are elites who have a record of fighting against alien races, and nothing can stop their terrifying soldiers.

Once upon a time, these heavily armed legions were sharp knives in her hands, but now, the sharp knives were aimed at herself.

It was precisely because she knew how fierce this sharp blade was that she was even more desperate.

Her mother didn't leave her even the slightest chance, and she would definitely die in this boundless night.

But at this moment, she vaguely heard something.

It was a faint, insignificant sigh.

"Is this the only amount... that's fine."

Immediately afterwards, she saw that the person in front of her moved.

Facing an army alone, do you have the courage to die?Or ignorant stupidity?

Nero didn't know, because no one had ever done such a thing, even in those myths and legends, she had never heard of such a feat—in fact, she hoped that the man would choose to escape, after all, the man's figure She was very vigorous, she still remembered that at that time, the other party just jumped onto the stands, with such skill, he might be able to escape from this fight.

As long as she lives, it's a good thing. She just needs to die here tonight, and she doesn't need to get along with anyone else.

But the man rushed up to face the army.

What the hell is that man thinking?she does not know.At least if it's just for her, she doesn't think she deserves such treatment—or rather, no one deserves such treatment.Facing thousands of troops alone, this firm attitude has already surpassed any ordinary emotions, whether it is loyalty or love, it is beyond description.

That's as stupid as moths to a flame.

"Ah, ah ah ah..."

Nero opened her mouth, but she could only utter a meaningless murmur. Her body was so weak that she fell to the ground at this moment.

It was the fear of death, the fear of losing everything, even if she was a Roman emperor, she was still just a mortal in the face of death.

But it was such an ordinary mortal, when she had already lost everything, someone was willing to risk their lives for her, and even die for her.

"... I am content."

At this moment, she unexpectedly relaxed.

At the last moment of her life, she was treated so tenderly, perhaps her life was not as bad as she imagined.

It's just a pity for that warrior, she hasn't been able to repay her...

"……Um?"

Just when she opened her eyes and wanted to take a last look at the warrior, she choked.

Just because what appeared in front of her was not the corpse of that warrior.

Instead, there are piles of corpses of Roman soldiers.

The blood had already flowed all over the ground at some point, and the stumped limbs and broken arms and scattered internal organs had piled up into a mountain, and on the hill of corpses, the man holding two broken swords was grinning loudly.

"Kill them all!"

Throwing the two broken swords aside casually, the bloody man jumped down from the mountain of corpses and returned to her side.

"It's all done, where shall we go next?"

"This……"

Nero was so dumbfounded that she even thought she was dreaming.

Obviously she should be dead already, nothing can stop three fully formed legions of 8000 people, even if the gods come to the world, it is impossible to do it-but right now, right in front of her, there are mountains of The corpse reminded her repeatedly that she was completely safe.

The smell of blood and corpses was so pungent, but to her at this moment, it was far better than any fragrance. Looking at the blood-stained man in front of her, she couldn't help but reach out and touch the plasma on his body.

"Are you... a god?"

At this moment, she couldn't help muttering to herself.

"Did the gods come down to the mortal world to save me?"

"Uh, I'm human."

Dubin couldn't help scratching his head when asked.

He is the most annoying about this, always saying that he is not human, does he look so abstract?

"I'm human, can't you see it?"

"Yes, you are human..."

Nero was already a little dizzy, and the shock of the ups and downs almost completely stopped her mind—at this moment, she even forgot what she was going to do, and only the man in front of her was left in her mind.

After all, against the background of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, the other party's sense of existence is really too exaggerated.

She must repay her well, she must repay her well, she can't live up to this treatment, she doesn't want to lose this last goodness together - but what can she get in return when she has nothing?What else could she give?

"what……"

With her lips slightly parted, she tried her best to straighten herself up and move closer.
