Chapter 271 Killing Nobles
In the center of Athens, the Acropolis stands like a hill.
Under the mountain wall on the east side of the Acropolis, a huge square paved with stone slabs lies horizontally, surrounded by residential houses on three sides.
The huge stage was built with its back against the mountain wall, and many people stood in the square, looking up at the stage.
The sky was dark and the curtain was drawn.
"Wow……"
There were exclamations everywhere around the main square.
On the stage, blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters, and green farmland are neatly laid out on it.
Nearby are five teenagers standing or sitting in the field.
In the distance, there are farmers plowing the land with oxen and horses, sweating profusely.
The natural light falls on the stage, where it still seems to be daytime.
"It's magic illusion, really powerful..."
"Why don't they wear masks? Is this the new theater?"
"There are actually five people."
Five ragged teenagers held farm tools, some shook their arms slightly, some patted their backs, and some twisted their necks.
Under their noses, they wear magic beards.
The tallest boy among them took a step forward, and said to the other four boys: "If anyone of us becomes rich in the future, don't forget these friends."
"Haha, Zachary, stop joking, we are all common people, how can we be rich?"
"Yeah, you just like to daydream and talk nonsense."
The four laughed at Zachary together.
Zachary shook his head, faced the audience, and looked at the high sky.
"How can the sparrow understand the ambition of the swan!" Zach Lei said firmly.
Their conversation was heard clearly throughout the square and beyond.
The four kids started laughing at Zachary again.
Sudden,
A carriage slowly drove into the stage, and a middle-aged man and a young man came out, dressed luxuriously and also wearing magic beards, followed by two guards.
"Father, is this our Huihe Town territory? It's so beautiful, I will live here often in the future."
"Only poor people and exiled trash nobles live here, Andrea, tell me, you don't want to live here."
"Well, father, I don't want to live here."
The nobles on the roof instinctively aimed at Andre, but Andre looked calm, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
The nobles nodded slightly, secretly praising Andre for keeping his composure.
"Father, their clothes are so ragged, who are they?" the young Andre asked loudly.
"They are not human." The middle-aged man said.
"Huh? Then what are they?"
"In Gray River Town, there are only beasts. The difference between them is four legs or two legs."
"Huh? Can I ride a two-legged beast too?"
"Turn the two-legged beast into a four-legged beast, and you can ride it. In the name of the lord of Gray River Town, go and capture the tallest boy and let Andrea ride it."
So, the two guards rushed over and forced the young Zacklei to kneel on the ground, and the young Andrea rode up.
"drive!"
Teenager Andre was holding Zacley's hair with his left hand, his right arm was shaking in the air, full of interest.
"drive!"
"drive!"
"drive!"
Amidst the excited voice of the young Andrea, Zachary knelt on the ground and crawled slowly.
The curtain fell slowly, and the prelude ended.
An oppressive atmosphere spread on the scene.
At this time, the voice-over sounded.
"Twenty years later, the adult Andrea was exiled to Gray River Town by his family because of his numerous crimes..."
Many nobles turned their heads to look at Andre.
Sensing everyone's gaze, Andre smiled slightly, and said, "As I said just now, drama is drama, and reality is reality. It's nothing more than the same name."
Everyone nodded, admiring Andre's composure even more.
After a while, the prelude slowly rose.
The scene of the stage changed from a field to a richly furnished noble hall.
The young Andre was lying in the hall, served by two maids, drinking bloody wine.
"Master Andre, it's not good, those civilians are shouting for justice outside..."
Next, the audience watched the first act carefully.
In the first act, because of the poor harvest of grain in Gray River Town, Andre squeezed it harshly, and the civilians asked Andre for justice, but Andre sent someone to kill several civilians and hang their bodies outside the hall .
Then, the black iron warrior Zacklei appeared and reasoned with Andre.
In the hall, two people had a heated debate, and Zachary made Andre speechless, causing the audience to cheer.
At the end, Andre suddenly recognized Zachary, insulted him as a two-legged beast, and then asked the guards to wound Zachary.
Zachary vomited blood and fled, while Andrea's guards chased after him, and the curtain fell slowly.
The audience at the scene had never seen such a drama with such a good background layout, nor had they seen such a life-like and realistic model. Their emotions were fully mobilized, and they either insulted Andrea, or hoped that Zachary would escape.
The drama masters at the front of the stage lowered their voices to discuss.
Not long after, the second act began.
The background is not a field, not a noble hall, but a wasteland.
In the beginning, Zacklei led the residents of Gray River Town to escape and open up wasteland for farming.
However, a nightmare came, and the nobles of the city of Athens hunted the refugees headed by Zaclay like hunting animals under the banner of destroying the bandits.
No matter how these refugees explained, the nobles would not listen and continued to use cruel means to hunt.
During this episode, many viewers couldn't bear it any longer and cursed loudly, which almost caused the show to be interrupted.
Zacklei kept fleeing with the refugees.
Once again escaping from the hunting party of the nobles, the band of refugees gathered to eat.
Zachary suddenly yelled.
"Apollo's solar chariot never passed over my head."
"The sunshine of Greece never shines on me."
"In my ears, only the thunder of Zeus is roaring!"
The refugees looked at Zackleigh sadly.
"Aristocrats and legends, are they born?"
"Running is death, killing nobles is also death, it is better to revolt, die for justice, die for awakening the people! Kill nobles!"
"Kill the nobles!" Howson shouted.
"Kill the nobles!" Taylor yelled.
"Kill the nobles!" Doris yelled.
"Kill the nobles!" shouted the forty-four people on the stage.
"Kill the nobles!" A few people in the audience began to shout.
"Kill the nobles!" shouted the people who had experienced the battle between Su ye and Luo Long.
"Kill the nobles!" a large number of civilians began to shout.
Many people cried and shouted.
They wanted to say this sentence for a long time, but they never dared to say it.
On the stage, everyone picked up farm tools or weapons, stood tall, and looked at the distant sky.
The curtain fell and the second act ended.
The audience looked at the curtain with tears in their eyes.
Holt desperately wiped away tears.
Countless civilians had red eyes.
The voices of cursing nobles came one after another.
Some nobles in the field silently stayed away.
"I have a bad feeling." Childe whispered.
"Me too."
"Should we ask War God Mountain to stop the show?"
"If you are not afraid of Her Majesty Palos, Sisyphus, or Lytos, you can try."
Everyone was immediately discouraged.
"I don't want to watch it."
"Although this is just a drama, why do you feel that you have been scolding us nobles?"
"I feel the same way."
"Andrea, do you want to read on?"
Andrea smiled slightly, and said, "I still stick to my point of view just now. Drama belongs to drama, and reality belongs to reality. We can see the whole life of those people in just one night. What a novel experience. Not surprisingly, the next 'I' will be unlucky. If I don't run away, why are you going?"
"Haha..." The young nobleman laughed.
"You're such a great example of generosity," Childe praised.
The curtain rises again.
The third act begins.
Above the stage is the hall of Andre's house.
Forty-four righteous men are fighting against Andrea's men.
Andre shivered in the corner like a frightened mouse.
The two sides fought and scolded each other.
The righteous men scolded Andrea.
"Murderer, you insulted my wife!"
"Crazy, you killed my father!"
"Thug, you killed my wife and children."
...
All the crimes of the nobles of Athens were shouted out by the roar of forty-four people.
"Kill Andrea!"
"Kill Andrea!"
The audience off the stage roared angrily.
The nobles on the roof looked at Andre again, and everyone's eyes became more complicated than before.
They saw that the smile on Andre's face disappeared, his lips were slightly pursed, and his gray-green eyes were particularly dim.
At the end of the battle, it was Zachary who fought with the chief of the guard. Both actors were black iron warriors carefully selected by Aeschylus, bringing the audience an extremely exciting battle scene, far exceeding any previous drama.
Seeing this scene, all the playwrights were dumbfounded. They never expected that dramas could be shown so realistically.
In the end, Zaclay killed the Chief of Guards.
Zachary led everyone, grabbed Andre to the center of the stage, stepped on his head, and looked at the audience in front.
Forty-four people looked forward together.
The scene was completely boiling.
"Kill Andrea!"
"Kill Andre..."
Hundreds of thousands of people shouted in unison.
Those who didn't dare to shout "kill the nobles" before now also shouted without any scruples.
"kill!"
Zachary himself killed Andrea.
Forty-four people surrounded them and secretly replaced Andrea's body.
Afterwards, the audience was silent, and the Athenians saw a scene they had never seen in their lives.
I saw forty-four people, like wild beasts, attacking that Andre, wielding farm tools and weapons, smashing, beheading, chopping, cutting...
Bull blood and minced meat, like real flesh and blood, are flying on the stage.
At this moment, the forty-four people seemed to have turned into blood-stained demons.
Some people even stretched out their hands, grabbed the minced meat and blood, and stuffed them into their mouths.
While chewing, weeping bitterly.
All the audience opened their mouths wide, completely shocked.
At this time, horns sounded from the edge of the stage, the earth shook, and horseshoes burst.
"The nobles who hunt us are coming." Howson's voice was full of regret.
"I would rather commit suicide than be smeared as a bandit and become their trophy."
"It's a pity that we can only kill Andrea, but we cannot enter Athens, and we cannot let those high-ranking nobles see our strength. We cannot make them fear, and cannot make them suffer."
"No, as long as we know that we killed Andrea and the nobles, the nobles will definitely be terrified! They will definitely reduce the persecution of other civilians because of fear and pain. We can't kill Athens, but we can ignite it to make Athens The fire that the city saw! Let this light burn their souls forever!" Zacklei shouted.
