Cannon Fodder Strategy

A candidate saint for the Holy See is very noble in the eyes of others, but in Arturi's view, if he wants it, the Roman family and the Nore Empire will offer her as a gift. If he doesn't want it, as he said , it has nothing to do with him whether Lily has any secrets, so of course he doesn't need to threaten Lily with her worried secrets.

This has nothing to do with methods, it is just the absolute power, strength and innate pride he possesses.

"Sometimes some tricks are just a way of life, not to get something. If I want to get something, I will always get it myself." He said this with a smile, his expression lessened. The coldness and alienation that previously seemed to repel people thousands of miles away turned out to be very pleasant: "So relax."

"I'm not a gentleman, but what I want, I won't use this method to get. I will get it openly." His strong strength gives him full confidence. In a way, Aturi's straightforwardness and pride make him proud. He gritted his teeth and laid his purpose clearly in front of Lily. This was far more helpless than the conspiracy. Lily seemed to have rarely encountered such a difficult person since the mission. Arturi's eyes seemed to be able to see through Her performance read into her heart and made her feel a little embarrassed for no reason. She frowned and held her breath without making a sound.

The fight between one man and one lion in the gladiatorial arena has come to an end. One of the slave's arms was bitten alive by the lion, but a piece of flesh was bitten off by the lion. However, the shield in his hand had already hit the lion that was lying on the ground. At this moment, The shield had been somewhat deformed, and the lion collapsed on the ground, except for its body twitching instinctively. It could no longer pose a threat to people. Such a bloody scene caused everyone in the arena to scream wildly and applaud. The injured slave sat on the lion that had no resistance, with blood splattered on his face. It wasn't until the lion stopped moving that he stood up, threw the deformed shield in his hand to the ground, and ran wildly across the field with his hands raised.

The performance of this strong man attracted the attention of some nobles. This slave's powerful figure and the fact that he killed a strong lion with his bare hands gave him some opportunities. On the high platform opposite, several people dressed like butlers had already stood up, obviously preparing to buy it. Come down.

The first competition quickly adjusted the atmosphere, but Lily had no interest in this kind of competition. If Arturi was not very close to her, making her instinctively turn her head, she would not have wanted to see this scene at all. .

The slaves in the arena were taken away. He was like a victorious rooster, a little triumphant. The dead lion was also taken down. Everyone in the arena started roaring and shouting. Only some blood stains were left in the arena, proving that just now Everything that happened.

The urgent drum beat sounded again, and this time it was the first one to push it out. It was a cage with a gray wolf in it. When they saw all this, many of the people who had been shouting suddenly became dissatisfied and began to curse:

"what happened?"

Generally speaking, the arena will be open for more than five consecutive days in a month, and even if the daily competitions are about humans and animals fighting to warm up, the same method will never be played twice, even if it is played twice. , and they shouldn't play together. Many people were inevitably a little dissatisfied and started to make noise. At this moment. The gate on the other side is opened. A girl with long hair wearing a leather skirt slowly walked out from behind the gate.

The noisy whole place suddenly fell silent due to the appearance of this girl. The wolf in the cage was released. Lily subconsciously reached out and pushed Aturi, who was very close to her, in the face:

"Look."

Aturi never thought that she would suddenly reach out. She clearly wanted to hide when he approached before. The closer he got, the more she shrank into her chair. Obviously she didn't want to be touched by him, and she didn't expect that she would reach out to push him at this moment.

When he reacted and instinctively wanted to dodge, it was still too late. Even though Arturi moved very quickly, he wanted to turn his head away the moment Lily raised her arm to touch him, but Lily's fingertips were still there. Gently across his face, just the pad of the index finger touched some, and they soon shared it. For a sudden moment, a tingling feeling like a weak electric current came from the two of them. Derived from the place they arrived, both of them were stunned for a moment.

An indescribable feeling came to her heart. Lily was a little surprised to find that when she met Aturi, it was not like meeting a stranger on a mission. She didn't feel anything at all. She even recalled the time she touched his cheek before. Even though he quickly avoided her, the feeling was as if it was not the first time she touched him. A familiar and somewhat intimate emotion came to her heart. She couldn't help but have the urge to touch him again.

It's just that Aturi quickly sat up straight, and the corners of his mouth that used to be upturned were now pursed. His expression looked serious and somewhat sharp, and his eyes were dark and inexplicable, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Oops! It seemed like the touch just made him a little angry. When Lily came back to her senses, she noticed Arturi's movements and remembered that he didn't like people touching him. When she almost touched him several times before, he avoided it. He didn't expect that she would suddenly be touched by her now. bump into. Although she only suffered a little bit, thinking about this person's character, Lily couldn't help but feel a bit refreshed in her heart.

She saw Aturi's eyes darken quickly, and the color of his originally light blue eyes gradually darkened. She grinned, no longer as embarrassed as she had been when he forced him to the corner of the chair to dodge. She was not sincere. Apologize:

"Dear Lord Aturi, please accept my sincerity. I know that you don't like women to get too close to you. It's just that I accidentally touched you in a hurry. It really shouldn't have happened."

Aturi stared at Lily, not sure if he heard her words. He reached out and touched his face that she had just touched. His face was gloomy and uncertain. It was not the cold and reserved look before, but instead As if his mood was very complicated, he cautiously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Lily, but he didn't know what he thought of, but suddenly he took his hand back and clenched it into a fist, his expression obviously gloomy.

He suddenly stood up, and his tall body pulled out a shadow, shrouding Lily in the shadow of his body, which made people feel heartbroken for no reason, and at this moment, bursts of cheers suddenly broke out in the arena, breaking the The silence in the VIP Pavilion made Lily feel relieved. She turned around subconsciously and saw Anna standing there. The wolf who was not much shorter than her body when she stood up had been twisted. Neck, obviously breathed his last and now lying on the ground.

Anna was unarmed. From the time she appeared until she killed the wolf, it only took a few minutes. This seemingly ferocious gray wolf had already died in her hands. The most important thing was that there was nothing wrong with her. Injured, she stepped on the wolf and raised her face. The sun shone on her face. At this moment, Anna seemed like a queen in the arena, sexy, coquettish and charming.

Soon there was thunderous applause in the arena. Anna in the arena narrowed her eyes and looked towards the VIP pavilion where Lily was. She seemed to know who was sitting here. Her red lips curled up and she lowered her eyebrows. For a moment, she flicked her hair and ignored the screams and shouts of the excited crowd in the arena. Her figure quickly disappeared behind the gate and disappeared.

Aturi didn't know if he had seen the scene just now. When Lily turned around, she realized that he had been staring at her with his head lowered. After a while, he pulled out his chair:

"It's too noisy here, let's go." He seemed to be fine, as if he didn't mind Lily's touch just now as he did before, and even motioned for Lily to get up:

"If you don't like it here, then find a place you like."

There was no emotion or anger in his tone. Lily hesitated for a moment and stood up. The two people's movements attracted the attention of Leon at the door. He made an apology gesture to the people outside and came in quickly. He soon discovered There was something wrong with the atmosphere. He glanced at Lily. He also saw the scene when Arturi was getting close to Lily just now. The two of them were clearly very close before, but he didn't expect that something happened at this moment. It was inexplicable. He was about to leave, and the Grand Duke's face looked very bad. He paused for a moment:

"Sir, are you leaving?"

Arturi nodded and returned to his previous cold demeanor. When the two nobles with titles standing at the door heard this, they laughed in a flattering manner:

"My lord, you can stay a little longer. This place is only open for a few days every month, and every day is very exciting. It's rare for your lord to come to the imperial capital, and you have a young lady from the Roman family to accompany you, but you can enjoy the show later. If If you have a show you like, I can call Qiubi. He may have other good things in his hands." The Qiupi he mentioned was a well-known slave owner in the imperial capital. He owned many slaves and often traveled around the world. During the period, the slaves who were bought were either sent to the arena or given to the territories of various nobles. The person who said this was a middle-aged man wearing a ducal vermilion cloak and a curly mustache. There was also a representative pin on the cloak. He wears the medal of honor for his status and smiles with a flattering look on his face.

Arturi seemed to have no interest in this, so Leon politely rejected the noble man's kindness on his behalf. Lily originally wanted to stay and find out Anna's identity, but when she came out of the Holy See today, she was picked up directly by Leon in a carriage. This arena is a place full of violence and darkness, and people in this world are very concerned about the relationship between men and women. She was so indulgent, and without Brian by her side, it would be easy for a lone saint to be targeted if she stayed.

She didn't want to leave with Arturi, but this morning Leon went directly to the temple to pick her up in a carriage. She wanted to go back now, but she had no means of transportation. (To be continued ~^~)
