Chapter 25 Despicable
Piao Tianwen “Reincarnation No. 228, you have completed the competitive mission: Badac's Uprising (C+ level). Mission reward: Credit points 10,000, 12 skill points.”
"Arris, what are we going to do next?" Omes walked from behind Xu Mo and asked respectfully.[]
"Sweep the battlefield and collect all the Roman armor and weapons, including... their leather sandals!" Xu Mo said with a look at the simple wooden clogs on Omes' feet.
"Boss, I counted it. We have 156 people left now, of which about 80 are slightly injured, and more than 20 seriously injured. Eight of the seriously injured may not survive tonight!" Jeona came to Xu Mo and said softly.
"Arris, I'll send those eight brothers together!" Kabar next to him said with a dark look when he heard Jeanna's words, and then he said with a firm expression.
Xu Mo glanced at Kabar and nodded silently. When the gladiators were in the Badacci Manor, they ate and lived together, and lived together for so long, and had a deep affection for each other. But if a gladiator really could not be cured, his best brother would often choose to kill him personally to avoid suffering from pain before he died.
Before it was completely dark, the rebels finally cleaned the entire battlefield. Although the armor on the Roman soldiers had scars and damage, these armors were all standard equipment. After the gladiators were pieced together, they still collected more than a hundred pairs of quite intact armor. In addition to the part of the armor they originally had, they barely turned all the gladiators into heavy infantry.
The gladiator's short sword and the broken log shield were replaced by the double-edged battle swords, javelins and egg shields of Roman soldiers. In addition, Xu Mo also asked the gladiators to bring the more than 40 vertical tower shields discarded by the Roman soldiers onto the carriage. If the carriage space was not limited, Xu Mo even wanted to take away the already broken armor and weapons.
Before leaving the battlefield, the Romans took all their injured companions away, leaving only the corpses of the enemy and us. The gladiators piled up their companions' bodies together, padding dry dead wood and fallen leaves under the corpses, preparing to cremate the companions.
As for the Roman soldiers who were stripped into pigs by the gladiators, the gladiators were not ready to be collected, but after a moment of pondering, Xu Mo ordered the gladiators to pile up the Romans into a pile of corpses and cremate them. This was not Xu Mo's conscientious discovery, but he was worried that the Roman soldiers stripped into pigs would anger the Roman army coming from behind and pursue them endlessly.
"Arris, come here, I want to tell you something!" Kabal said in a low voice.
"Kabal, what's the matter?" Xu Mo followed Kabal away from the crowd and went to a corner next to him.
"Come here and tell Alrez again what you saw!" Kabar waved and recruited several servant slaves from the corner.
"Sir Alrez, that's right. We don't have the ability to fight, so when you fight with the Romans, we all hide, we see..." The slaves who were originally servile looked at each other and spoke.
"Are you sure you're not reading it wrong?" Xu Mo was shocked and looked at Kabar subconsciously.
"They should have read it right. Before notifying you, I went to count the corpses of my brothers. In addition to the living people, we were missing nearly forty people!" Kabal said with a serious expression.
"Damn Badaks, damn mercenaries..." The actions of Badaks and his mercenaries made Xu Mo rarely angry.
It turned out that after the mercenaries of Badacus entered the battlefield, many gladiators were injured by these mercenaries and Roman soldiers, and they lost their ability to move on the battlefield. These gladiators were unknowingly captured by mercenaries with nostalgia, and the number reached as many as forty people.
The battle between the Romans and the gladiators was too fierce, and everyone focused on the battle. Even Xu Mo did not notice that such a thing had happened on the battlefield. Only these vacancies who had not participated in the battle and were hiding were observed.
"I didn't tell Ragsius and Omes about this matter. You are the leader now, so you can decide what to do!" Kabar sighed and said, "I don't think Badacus will definitely execute them. Even if you decide to give up on them, I can understand that they will not say it."
"Kabar, call Lagsius and Omes over. This matter cannot be hidden from them. I know what you are worried about. If they don't want to listen to me now, then let's break up! If we want to defeat the Romans, we must become a powerful army, unite and obey orders, and not act emotionally!" Xu Mo closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then said lightly.
To Kabar's surprise, let alone Omes, even after learning about this, Ragsius cursed Badacus viciously, he calmed down. War was the best teacher, Kabar, Ragsius, and Omes, after experiencing such a cruel battle, they learned a lot.
The champion gladiators are not only in excellent physique but also in outstanding combat skills. Although they cannot be said to be extremely smart, most of them are not fools. The same is true for the three champion gladiators in front of them. Although they do not have any superb knowledge and lack social skills, they are all very smart, not to mention that they have paid the price of blood just now.
"If we could have known this news earlier!" Omes shook his head with a wry smile, "Arris, you decide, we are willing to obey any orders of yours!"
Ragsius opened his mouth to speak, but when he opened his mouth, he sighed, closed his mouth again, and remained silent.
"Starting, we will first find a hidden place to recuperate from the wounds. We will send people to Pompeii to investigate the situation tomorrow and the day after tomorrow!" Xu Mo's eyes flashed and he was determined.
"Boss, the task we received..." Dinah asked in surprise during the team communication.
"Reincarnation No. 228, you have triggered a competitive mission: Save (B+ level)! Save the slave gladiator in the original Badaks Manor. Each slave gladiator is rewarded with 500 credit points and 1 skill point. For every ten slave gladiators rescued, an additional reward of a free attribute is given. The mission time limit, within two days from now, if the mission fails, it may trigger subsequent competitive missions!"
"Tip: The subsequent competitive tasks may have priority. Competitive tasks with priority are mandatory. Reincarnation must complete them. The consequences of the failure of the task are extremely serious."
