Chapter 788

"So you have an opponent who is also an assassin?" Zhang Heng asked.

"Yes, and because they are created by the traitors of the blade of balance, the organizational structure is very similar to the blade of balance. No, except that there are no priests, they are almost the replica of the blade of balance, and even the number of core members is the same as ours." The old trainer had no choice.

"Oh."

"Although they have a history of only 200 years, they have been supported by the rulers at that time and developed rapidly. They have been against us all the time. I should have told you about these things after you passed the test and joined the blade of balance. However, in view of the current situation, it is possible for you to meet them later, so let me know in advance." "In short, for your safety, you'd better not discuss the blade of balance in public at any time," dadatis said

"I understand." Zhang Hengdao.

"Good. Next I'll show you how to hide in the crowd, so you know how to deal with the situation when you go out." Dadatis road.

…………

For more than a month after that, Zhang Heng's life was very simple. The old trainer would come to him at night from time to time and continue to teach him the fighting skills of his assassins. During the day, he would go out to play hide and seek with free accompanies hired by other Gladiator schools.

Because the old trainer set the requirement that he couldn't do it, Zhang Heng made a lot of efforts to deal with his followers at the beginning. As he said, his appearance is very special in the city of Rome, and it's not easy to hide in the crowd, but Zhang Heng has another trump card besides the stealth skill that dadatis gave him, which is his Lv2 make-up What surprised the old trainer was that Zhang Heng had no teacher to teach himself. Under the huge external pressure, he began to try to combine makeup and stealth together to better help him hide his body.

In addition, Zhang Heng also took part in four wrestling performances, all of which won without exception, because every time he won, he was very clean. In addition, mark Ruth's operation and packaging methods greatly improved his popularity in a short time.

Now almost the whole city of Rome knows that there's a great Oriental in the victor arena.

Zhang Heng also got the nickname of "black lightning". These days, he has received more than 100 love letters. Marcus watched as the arena, which has been declining since the appearance of sisnates, was filled with people again. He was also very happy.

But soon another thing took the place of attention.

It was Commaud, the new emperor of Rome, who finally returned from the front line.

Since nevar, the Antonian Dynasty has experienced five virtuous kings. However, it is interesting that the first four of the five emperors have no children to inherit the throne, so they all choose to adopt the adopted son with outstanding moral ability and pass the throne on to the adopted son. It is not until orelius that they have the son of Commaud.

Strictly speaking, Commodus was not the first son of Aurelius. Before Commodus, Aurelius had four sons. Unfortunately, the eldest child only lived to 11 years old, so furstena gave birth to twins for Aurelius. Her brother died at the age of 4, and his younger brother was Commodus.

After that, Aurelius ushered in his seventh son Marcus. Marcus was made heir at the age of 4 and died at the age of 7. In the end, Commodus became Aurelius' only living son.

This may sound a bit tragic, but considering that all of Aurelius' four predecessors eventually had no sons to succeed, Aurelius' situation is pretty good.

Before his death, the philosopher emperor had a premonition that his time was coming, and began to cultivate his only successor. When he went to the Germanic army, he took commoder with him, personally taught him how to deal with government affairs and lead the army to fight, and sought the support of the army. In addition, he arranged the marriage between commoder and Christina, and the latter was the only one Born in a famous family in Rome, her father had been two consuls and had considerable influence in the Senate. In Aurelius' imagination, crispina would become the link between Commodus and the Senate. This marriage would also help Commodus to further consolidate his rule.

However, Aurelius didn't expect that his illness was more serious than he thought. In the end, he didn't teach Commaud for a longer time. When he died, Commaud was only 19 years old.

Now, this young man, who was just about to start his sophomore year, took over the scepter from his father and became the new ruler of the whole Roman Empire.

With his almost saintly father in front, as well as the previous four masters, people are looking forward to how the new emperor will behave, especially when he returns to the center of imperial power.

Commaud did not disappoint his own people either. On the second day of his return to Rome, he announced that a Grand Duel performance would be held at the ceremony to reward the army and get the support of the people.

The young man, who had just turned 20, did not forget his father's instruction that bread and circus performances were crucial to the rule of a king, and his generous act immediately received the cheers and support of the people.At the same time, the Senate, which was responsible for the preparation of the duel performance, started to take action, and relevant notices and documents were distributed to all the Gladiator schools, not only in Rome, but also in other cities.

There is no doubt that this will be a feast for the whole people to participate in the Gladiator performance.

"Look, this is a new weapon I've asked someone to find for you."

This afternoon, Marcus suddenly came to the door and brought a gift. They were two Persian swords, but they were not so much swords as swords. In fact, they were more similar in shape to swords. They could be regarded as the ancestors of Damascus swords.

The two knives brought by Marcus are much better than the traditional standard weapons. Roman weapons of this era have begun to use a lot of iron and steel, but because it is difficult to control the carbon content, the quality of Swords is generally poor.

However, the two Persian swords brought by Marcus this time can really be regarded as high-quality products. They are not only sharp enough, but also have no shortcomings of other sharp weapons. They are also very hard. In terms of making techniques, they are a bit like samurai swords of later generations. Wrapping low carbon steel with high carbon steel can perfectly integrate the advantages of the two.

I just don't know if it's the caster or if he really mastered some magical casting method.

Zhang Heng is more inclined to the former, otherwise the weapons quality of the whole Rome can be improved.
