However, the Olympia representative did not dare to shout loudly. He could not forget the terrible sight of the Dionian army surrounding Olympia a few years ago, lest he angered Dionia in this public place and brought disaster to Olympia again, so he could only remind him in a low voice. The representatives of the surrounding city-states hoped to attract their attention and jointly protest against Dionia.

However, these representatives either said the ceremony was meaningful and worth seeing, or pretended not to hear it. Even if someone agreed with him, they did not make it clear that they would protest to Dionia. The entire venue gradually quieted down under the supervision and reminders of the Dionia audience and athletes.

Before long, "Dang!...Dang!...Dang!..." The vigorous and heavy bell sounded to the main arena, making the Dionian people more solemn.

At the place where the bell rings-the hill of the gods is already surrounded by many devout followers of Hades. When the nine bells rang and the old-fashioned Plycinus walked out of the main temple tremblingly, holding the torch lit by the holy fire, they all sang Hades carols religiously, and the whole inner city Suddenly immersed in the light and melodious singing.

At this time, Sekelian, who was wearing a pure white single, greeted him with a solemn expression.

Plessinas said gently: "General, please take it!"

Sekelian didn't speak much, but nodded heavily, then solemnly took the burning torch with both hands, turned and ran down the mountain.

Turiyi people stood densely on both sides of the road, forming a human-shaped corridor leading to the main arena. While they sang, they watched with excitement at Sekerian running forward holding the torch.

Sekerian, who quickly ran down the mountain, handed the torch to Tagus who was waiting, and Tagus continued to run to the next torchbearer...

It is about six miles from the main temple of Hades to the main arena. Even if the torchbearers are running at full strength, it will take a while to reach. The hosts in the arena used this time to introduce the heroic deeds of the torchbearers to the audience who could not see the torch relay, and their heroic deeds are actually a history of the war of Dionia from weak to strong. The Dionian audience, who can relive history, was full of enthusiasm. It also sighed the foreigners, messengers, and athletes who heard about it for the first time.

……………………………………………………

"...The last hero who entered the main arena with a torch was Brutus Max. He was a Roman and later a citizen of Dionian.

In the Greek War that broke out in the Kingdom's 24th year (370 BC), the Dionian army and the Spartan allied forces fought a decisive battle on the Taga plain. Due to the sudden rebellion of the Taga, it was an offensive The main force of the First Army was flanked by the Spartan coalition forces. The situation was very critical. However, the soldiers of the First Army fought **** and withstood the fierce attack of the Spartans. They insisted on waiting until the arrival of reinforcements, and finally turned around. War situation. But the loss of the First Army was quite heavy. When cleaning the battlefield after the battle, the medical staff unexpectedly found that Max was still alive.

The squad led by the squad leader of the First Corps was at the forefront of the battle. The soldiers of the entire squad died bravely, and the squad leader fell at the center of the phalanx, next to the flag. There was a circle of Spartan warriors lying around, and he himself was bloody, fell into a coma, and even his limbs were incomplete. After several rescues by doctors, he finally came back alive under the blessing of Hades...

After the great Daves heard of his deeds, he was very moved and immediately appointed him as the hero of the kingdom, but his injuries were too serious. Even if the triumph of the war was held a year later, he could not attend! But today, he will hold a torch and use the torch to light the altar on the arena. This is to remind the audience not to forget that it was the blood and sacrifice of these Dionian soldiers on the battlefield that led to the establishment of the Greek Alliance! There is peace in Greece! Only then has today's grand sports meeting celebration! So we should sincerely thank warriors like Max! "

After several pre-rehearsals, the experienced hosts controlled the time well, so not long after they finished talking, a figure appeared at the entrance of the stadium.

Brutus Max was once a handsome Roman youth, and he is only in his 30s, but he can no longer see his former appearance at all. His left cheek was like a bite. There was a big missing piece, even the left eye was gone, the right hand was shoulder-to-shoulder, and the left leg seemed to be short. He limped and limped when he ran. The whole person looked quite scary.

However, the audience of Dionia stood up unanimously, and applauded desperately. Nearly half of the audience of Dionia were Turyians. Almost all of them shed tears and wept because they saw Marx. Let them involuntarily think of their relatives who died or were injured in the Greek war.

This situation caused the envoys of the Greek city-states to be moved and stood up and applauded.

Ipamirunda sighed: "The Kingdom of Dionia admires citizens who fight bravely, how can their citizens not fight bravely! This is the fundamental reason why the Dionian army is strong! "

"Seeing these, we should feel more at ease!" Lu Komedes also said with a sigh, "Because as long as Dionia remains strong, the Greek Alliance can survive for a longer time!"

Among the very few people who did not stand up and applaud, the most obvious is Agsilius, because in the host’s speech just now, the Spartan warriors seemed to be evil, but they were the old age. Silaus did not feel any anger. He saw through the world very clearly: the rise and fall of city-states have always been kings and losers. If Sparta won the battle of Taga, today may be another situation, but it is true. Because countless Diorian soldiers like Max fought bravely, the military plan he worked hard to draw up eventually failed, so he silently looked at the staggering figure on the track, and his mood was quite complicated...

Daves and his family also stood up, all of them dignified and applauded silently. The corners of the eyes of several women such as Christoya, Cynthia and others were wet, and even Ai Dui even choked with voice...

Both Plato and Xenophon, who had been debating endlessly before, kept silent. They already knew that Daves’ adopted son Adoris died in the Battle of Tagalog. Obviously, the torchbearer who entered the arena let The members of the royal family of Dionia recalled that painful past again.

At this moment, Max’s situation is a bit bad. He is not only physically disabled, but also scarred inside the body covered by the white shirt. The two most important injuries are that his left and right lungs have been stabbed by a Spartan soldier. Wearing it will cause the lung function to be greatly reduced. If the activity time is a little longer, you will feel that the qi is not enough and it is difficult to support.

The preparatory team discovered this problem at the time and considered changing candidates, but Max promised Croto Kataks repeatedly, "He will definitely be able to complete the task." After several rehearsals, he did persist. Therefore, whether it is from political factors or personal feelings, Cloto Kataks will never change the person who ignites the altar flame.

But today is different from the usual rehearsal. There are thousands of spectators watching, accompanied by thunderous applause. The blood in Max's heart, who has lived worse than death in the past few years, is ignited by the atmosphere of the arena: Yes, he is carrying it. The expectation of the families of hundreds of comrades who died in the Taigeya warfare will ignite this sacred fire and let their brave souls be praised by the entire Mediterranean people!

The heart is beating violently, the steps are speeding up unconsciously, the consumption of the whole body is obviously more than the usual rehearsal, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Max is a bit out of breath, his eyes are black, and his body is shaking, it seems You may fall with every step.

Hold on to Marx, you must hold on! Your comrades in arms are watching you in the Elysee, waiting for the great moment when you light the flame! There are still a few tens of meters away, so stick to it! ! ...Max continued to cheer himself up, suppressing the tension in his heart.

At this time, the entire venue suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on the swaying torchbearer on the track. The distance of tens of meters seemed short, but it seemed long for him.

Even Daves couldn’t help holding on to the railings of the stands, and Croto Kataks even wrote his worries on his face: So far, everything at the opening ceremony is going well, but if Max falls, even the flame goes out. , All previous efforts will be in vain, and the new opening ceremony of the Dionian Games will also become a laughing stock.

But at this moment, Croto Kataks did not regret for choosing Max as the person to light the altar. In order to cheer him up and to cheer himself up, he even violently spoke in his heart: he died in battle for the First Legion. brothers! For my big brother! Max, you **** hold on to me! ...

The prayers of thousands of Dionian spectators seemed to have no effect, and Max's body swayed even more severely. Just when everyone couldn't bear to look at it anymore, the placard teenager standing at the forefront of the referee team suddenly handed the wooden card held high to Calcidis behind him, and then quickly ran towards Max.

Immediately afterwards, another teenager with a placard not far from him also ran over.

Two immaculate teenagers supported a disabled veteran and jogged to the altar in the middle of the arena. This harmonious scene immediately aroused the warm applause of the audience outside the stadium, and also let the gloomy psychology of a few audiences fall to nowhere. .
