Bai Mu understood her feelings. It was actually very boring to not be able to die normally like humans and to live alone in the world.

So, chasing death becomes the only option.

"Sorry, I'm actually ready to leave."

"Oh...? You haven't killed me yet? Why are you leaving?"

"My purpose in coming to Shadow Country wasn't to kill you, was it?" Bai Mu laughed unconsciously. "I came here only to improve my martial arts and combat experience. Now that I've learned enough, it's time to leave."

"Oh...? You think your martial arts and experience have reached perfection?" Scathach raised her eyebrows slightly.

"No, I'm still a long way from reaching the level of a master. Therefore, I plan to travel to different eras and fight against the darlings of each era to gain more combat experience."

really.

Although I have guessed it a long time ago, it is still just a guess because I have never actually asked.

It seems that my guess was correct, he really came from the future.

Being able to travel to different time and space and fight with those heroes who dominated the world for a time is really exciting.

To be honest, Scathach also had some expectations in her heart.

But after much hesitation, he decided not to go with him to other time and space.

Such a journey is too long, and it is difficult for me to give up everything in the Shadow Kingdom.

"In that case, I will wait for you in the Land of Shadows, waiting for the day you come to kill me."

"it is good."

……

After dinner, after saying goodbye to Scathach, Cu Chulainn, and many disciples, Bai Mu pulled Medea back to the paradise space.

Calling up the game interface, I quickly selected an era that was not too far away in time.

In 56 AD, two years after Nero ascended the throne, he held an athletic competition in Rome, imitating the Greek Olympics, also known as the Nero Festival.

Because of the games, the city of Rome is extremely bustling at this moment. People have registered everywhere and are preparing for the upcoming competitions.

“It’s so lively here.”

"Yes, it is a rare event after all."

Seeing Medea's curious expression, Bai Mu asked with a smile:

"You should know the Olympics, right?"

"Of course, this is the most important celebration in Greece."

"That's easy to say. The Roman Emperor Nero also held such a grand event, modeled after the Olympics. Do you want to sign up?"

"Oh oh..."

Medea was unexpectedly filled with anticipation that there would be an event like the Olympics in the future.

She had heard of Olympics, a grand event jointly hosted by many city-states, which was held only once in a long time, but had never seen it.

When I was little, I also hoped that my father would take the lead and initiate a grand event.

But when I grew up and realized how much money it would cost, I realized how young and ignorant I was.

It seems that this should be a country with strong national strength.

Moreover, the king should also be very open-minded.

"What specific events are there in this sports meet?"

"I don't know. I heard there are three main departments: sports, horseback riding, and music, with at least ten kinds of events."

"I'm not very good at sports and horse riding, but I'm quite confident in music."

"In that case, let's join together. I'll sign up for sports and horseback riding, and you sign up for music."

"Okay."

"Sign up first, then buy a horse and train it."

To be honest, Bai Mu doesn't know how to ride a horse at all.

However, after training in the Land of Shadows, the upper limit of the Momo Fruit's multiplication has been increased to 300 times.

Both his comprehension and affinity towards animals could be doubled, and he would probably become an equestrian expert soon.

"Okay. I also need to buy a musical instrument and familiarize myself with it again. Hmm...? Can musical instruments be materialized?"

"Of course you can, but I've seen so few instruments that it's hard to tell the difference between the types and the quality. It's better to buy them locally. At a sports event of this scale, there must be plenty of shops specializing in musical instruments."

"That's true. Then go sign up and see what programs are available."

"Yes."

The white curtain closed its eyes slightly, and the observation Haki unfolded, covering the city of Rome.

After filtering out useless information, I quickly found a registration point with few people.

According to the person in charge, today is the last day for registration, and the two of them arrived just in time.

After a while, when the sun sets, registration will be completely closed.

There are a total of 21 different events in this Nero Festival, with sports being the most, music being the second, and horse riding being the least.

After careful selection, Bai Mu signed up for four events in total: the 400-meter sprint, the 2,000-meter equestrian obstacle course, the fencing competition, and the gunmanship competition.

Medea signed up for both harp and singing.

Chapter 273: I should be able to grow taller, right?

"Hmm... Not bad, not bad... It seems everyone is very enthusiastic."

Inside the Roman Imperial Palace, Nero was filled with excitement as he looked at the thick pile of registration forms. He quickly added his name after several of them.

She always felt that she was an artist comparable to Apollo, and only regretted that she was not born in the Age of Gods during the Greek period, otherwise she might have become the god of art with her own talents.

Therefore, two years after he ascended the throne, he prepared the available funds and relevant manpower and could not wait to hold such a grand event.

Unfortunately, this was the first time Rome hosted a games tournament, so they had little experience. Even though the bounty had been increased, the participants were still only local citizens.

However, this is only the first time, so it doesn't matter.

It is held every five years. After it has been held six or seven times, its reputation will spread and people from other countries will definitely come to participate.

"Hehe... Tomorrow is the day when I will become famous throughout the world! By then, the people of Rome will clearly realize that I am not only the Roman Emperor, but also a super beautiful girl with amazing talent, unparalleled in the world, and both beauty and talent!"

After muttering to himself, Nero turned to look at the maids in the room, frowned, and said in a feigned anger:

"What are you doing? There should be applause here."

The maids were slightly startled and quickly applauded.

Even though Emperor Nero had been on the throne for two years, they were still confused about what she was thinking.

You always brag about yourself and like to hear cheers, but there are not many audiences here?

Moreover, as an emperor, he chose to sign up for the competition he himself hosted. Isn’t this too strange?

After all, there was no need for this competition to be held in the first place.

Although there is ticket revenue, the ticket price is too low, making it a losing business.

……

The day after registration closed, all contestants gathered in the largest arena in the city.

Nero, wearing a crown and a red dance costume, briefly explained the opening remarks and immediately announced the start of the show.

Afterwards, she secretly left the platform, took off her crown, changed into a red and white sportswear, and quietly blended in with the contestants.

Although I really want to participate in all the events, some events take too long, such as marathons, and some events have time conflicts.

Therefore, she only chose a few of the shorter ones.

In order to participate in the competition as early as possible, she deliberately put the 400-meter sprint, one of the events she was participating in, as the first event.

After more than an hour of preliminaries, soon only twenty players were left in the field.

In order to avoid being discovered and to shock the world after winning the championship, Nero deliberately wore a mask.

However, because of this, after entering the finals, he quickly attracted the attention of the referee.

"Contestant, please take off your mask! Covering your face is prohibited during the finals."

"Nonsense, there's no such rule in this competition."

"This is a Senate rule. To prevent any attempt to assassinate Your Majesty, all finalists must show their faces."

Damn it! Meddlesome!

How could Yu assassinate himself?

Moreover, I am an emperor loved by everyone, how could anyone assassinate me!

However, their concerns are somewhat justified.

"Alright, alright... I really can't do anything about you. Don't be scared after seeing this. I'm wearing a mask for your sake."

Nero took off his mask, revealing his beautiful and charming face.

The next moment, the players on the field knelt down, and the referee also knelt on one knee and apologized hurriedly.

"See? That's it. After Yu reveals his true face, the contestants will definitely be concerned about his identity..."

As he spoke, Nero suddenly noticed a black-haired young man who was still standing there, just looking at this side curiously.

"Oh...? You won't kneel? Even if you're a foreigner, you should still observe etiquette when facing the emperor."

Bai Mu chuckled and shook his head slightly:

"First, there's no kneeling ceremony in my hometown. A nod is enough to show goodwill, or at most a bow."

"Secondly, there's no distinction between statuses on the field. We're both competitors, so don't expect me to let you down."

"Very good, you said it very well. Applause is due." Nero clapped his hands a few times and said with a smile, "There is no distinction between status in the arena, only strength. This is also the original intention of my hosting this competition."

"However, the winner will be Yu Oh. This is a difference in talent."

"let's start!"

Seeing this, the referee saluted respectfully, walked aside, and began to shout:

"All contestants, please get ready! Begin!"

The next moment, Nero took the lead and rushed out.

Bai Mu followed closely behind, running leisurely in front of her at a pace only one step faster than her.

Compared with the two, the other contestants were more cautious, and they felt that they were not up to the task, so they just followed behind them silently.

After all, no one knows whether Emperor Nero will become angry and refuse to admit his defeat after losing.

To be safe, let her win.

Anyway, if you can make it to the finals, you can get a bonus.

"How is that possible! I can't catch up at all."

Nero gritted his teeth, adjusted his breathing, and ran desperately, but he could never catch up with the opponent.

Moreover, the distance between the two sides was always maintained at one meter.

No matter whether I speed up or slow down, the one-meter distance remains unchanged.

Nero was naturally aware of this scene, which proved that the opponent's speed was far superior to his.

The 400-meter dash ended, and he hit the white curtain of the finish line and stopped at the right time.

"Whoosh..."

Nero held his waist with his hands and kept breathing heavily.

Noticing the unchanged breathing and expression on his face, he couldn't help but walk over, his face showing anger:

"Why are you letting it go? Why don't you give it your all?"

"Isn't it enough to win anyway?" Bai Mu smiled slightly.
