Chapter 783: Eating Matters
The night of the exotic land, every fifteenth is also as big as a plate.
Today is the sixteenth day of the Chinese lunar calendar, and the moonlight shines on the city wall, and the giant sword in Hercules' hand is sharply refracted into Lin Shuo's eyes, looking cold.
The top of the castle wall can gather defenders and run horses, and the place is relatively spacious.
The width is 15 meters, and the height is even more terrifying, more than 80 meters.
The castle of Daxizhou, the height of this city wall is standard, because it has to be prevented from the cultivators on the opposite side jumping up at once.
Lin Shuo's opponent in tonight's fight, the ninth-order swordsman Hercules, was two meters and thirty meters tall, and his body size looked almost like a barrel, and the giant sword in his hand was larger than others.
Before the swordsmen of Daxizhou make a move, they often stand with both hands on the hilt of the sword, and the pillar sword is in front of them, which is called the pillar sword and stand.
Because the swordsman is a warrior profession with a high sense of honor, not an assassin who engages in assassination, he moves in the open, and before competing with the opponent, he must show the weapon in advance so that the opponent can see it clearly.
Hercules couldn't do that, because his two-handed greatsword was three and a half meters long, and as wide as a door, and if it were a pillar sword, it would block himself.
So his sword, resting on the right side of his body, rested diagonally against the ground.
Lin Shuo shook his head in his heart when he saw this starting move, because in this way, it was equivalent to exposing his first move.
The giant sword swung diagonally on the right side of the body, and there was no suspense in the first move, and it could only sweep from right to left.
Although Lin Shuo had already had murderous intent towards this person at the moment, since the other party was so sincere, Lin Shuo felt that he couldn't be too disrespectful.
Lin Shuo originally went up to the city wall empty-handed, but as soon as the other party swayed, Lin Shuo felt that he still had to give this warrior a certain amount of respect.
So he waved his hand first, signaled the other party not to worry, and said to Ponweather, who was watching not far away, "Carry the things up." ”
Pang Weiser nodded when he heard Lin Shuo's command, and went to Lin Shuo's residence to chase after him with small steps.
And at this time, there must be more than one onlooker from the city tower, it must be not the only one who is in Wuyang.
The vast majority were members of the Duke's Palace, and the others were members of the mission.
Standing at the front of the crowd, looking at the railing from the city tower, were the leaders of both sides, Nemea and Miao Chengyun.
Miao Dagongzi was still in the mood to tease others at this time, and said loudly:
"Well, my lieutenant is a little capable, but he certainly isn't a match for General Hercules. Lord Duke, please tell the general and show mercy to your subordinates. We don't care if we win or lose, don't hurt the life of the deputy envoy. ”
When Nemea heard this, she nodded again and again, people were right, it was just a prestige, and it really couldn't kill people.
At the same time, he has 100% confidence in Hercules' strength.
Although this man is now a commoner, his ancestors are barons, but he has only fallen into the middle of the family in recent generations.
Therefore, Hercules' kendo inheritance, even if it is not comparable to the high-end inheritance above the earl, is still much stronger than that of civilians.
Among the current ninth-order sword masters, he is considered a high match, even if Nemoa himself, it will take a lot of effort to take him down, and it will not be so easy.
And the deputy envoy, although he can shoot his griffin with one arrow, but it is a sneak attack, not a reflection of the combat power of both sides.
This person's ability should not be bad, and his real strength should be a ninth-order archer master.
The long-range methods of the ninth-order archer are indeed strong, but they have a specialization in the arts, and fighting with a high-ranking ninth-order swordsman like Hercules at close range on the city wall is to find death.
So he said to Hercules on the city wall below: "Old Hai, since you have achieved the prestige of the ninth order of others, you can control the strength a little, so that he can barely fight for a draw." ”
Nemea's words were said from the bottom of his heart.
But at this moment, it fell into Hercules's ears, and that was the scene talk, or even the opposite.
This is a hint to him that he must step up his efforts and kill that kid.
Then Hercules sneered, "Please rest assured, Lord Duke, I will not disappoint you!"
It didn't take long for Ponweather to carry the chasing master, climbed the wall, and invited the Lin family worship to Lin Shuo.
Lin Shuo hurriedly took it and motioned to Ponweather to retreat first, while he carried the bowstring of the chasing master and invited the chasing master to the right side of his body.
The Lin family is enshrined obliquely, and the starting style is exactly the same as the other party.
As soon as the posture of the head of the hunting gate came out, the city tower became lively.
The people in the Duke's Mansion didn't know the details of Lin Shuo, but they had heard what the deputy envoy had done this afternoon.
Two miles away, an arrow killed the lord's griffin.
What kind of profession is the envoy in cultivation, it is also clear, he must be an archer master.
An archer, regardless of how many ranks, even if he is a titled archer, is not qualified to do this in front of Hercules.
"See, it's exactly the same starting style. ”
"This is clearly going to be tough!"
"Look for death!"
"It's not a matter of looking for death, it's that he's too ignorant, which makes General Hercules how to release the water. ”
"That's right, if this water is released, the two sides will be tied like this, we don't know if this kid will have a ninth-order prestige in the future, and the name of General Hercules' ninth-order swordsman will definitely be picked up by the swordsman association." ”
"It's too much!"
"Even if it's an imperial mission, you can't bully people like this!"
If you say a word to me on the city tower, it will soon be noisy.
Nemea looked at the situation on the field, and the corners of her eyes twitched, and she was very embarrassed.
He had already explained before that he would let Hercules release the water properly, but in this situation, if Hercules really released the water, the reputation of his military commander would be too great.
The military commander's reputation was reduced by carrying out his orders, which Nemea definitely did not want to see, because the soldiers under his command would be unstable in the hearts of the people, which would not be conducive to the subsequent war of the unity of the principality.
But if he said it, the water that was spilled out couldn't be taken back directly, so he had to look at Miao Chengyun beside him and said:
"Lord Zheng, the deputy envoy is too much to do like this, you advise. ”
Miao Chengyun originally had the mentality of watching the excitement and not being afraid of big things, and he didn't know much about the ditches and ditches in it.
But from the discussion behind him, he could already hear what was going on.
At the same time, he also knew that with Lin Shuo's style of doing things, he should not let go of Hercules in this battle tonight, and the final scene was bloody nine times out of ten.
Since the final scene will be ugly, in order for the two sides not to completely turn their faces, Miao Chengyun has to cover up.
So Miao Gongzi said: "My deputy envoy, in addition to being strong in long-range means, is also good in hand-to-hand combat, and he is very confident in this.
Of course, it seems to me that in front of General Hercules, his self-confidence is very blind and purely a way to die.
However, I'm not afraid of the Duke's jokes, this person is a spy, and he secretly has a lot of credit, so once he is put on the surface by His Majesty, he will be promoted very quickly.
He is in the same organization as me, and if this continues, my position will soon be ousted by him.
This man is mean, and once he is in power, I will not end well.
So tonight, I also ask the Duke to help me, and I, Miao Chengyun, will never forget the kindness of the Duke. ”
Miao Chengyun's words are tantamount to sending a pillow to Nemea when she is sleepy.
Because in this way, as long as Lin Shuo, the deputy envoy, is allowed to die on the city wall tonight, Nemea's favor for Miao Chengyun will be confirmed.
And this is not only a favor on the surface, but also a covert complicity, and the containment is much greater.
With this containment, let him say a few good words for himself in front of the emperor, it is still a trivial matter, and he can have a bigger plan later.
The opportunity that I couldn't get for with patience has suddenly appeared!
Nemea's heart pounded, and she hurriedly said to Hercules on the field: "Since the deputy envoy is so happy, such a heroic figure, Lao Hai, you don't have to keep your hands, fight with all your might, this is the greatest respect for the opponent!"
Hercules was ready to start working at this moment, and when he heard the words of the Duke, he was still a little puzzled.
Lord Duke is not normal tonight, talking a little too much.
Is there any doubt about killing this kid?
However, the Duke's words gave him a lot of convenience.
Originally, he wanted to kill this little man, but he couldn't come openly, so he had to secretly make a killing move, so he had to retract his strength and make a tactical trap for the first move.
This is down, and it's over with a chop, simple.
Now wait for the Duke's order.
Nemoya said to Miao Chengyun at this time: "Since the people on the field are going all out, they must be extremely dangerous, and it is normal to get out of people's lives. In this way, this fight, I shouted to start, and I made the adults shout to stop. ”
"Good. Miao Chengyunpi didn't smile and responded happily.
So as soon as Nemea shouted, Hercules roared wildly, dragging the giant sword and pounced on Lin Shuo.
The two of them were twenty meters apart, and at Hercules' speed, they were there in the blink of an eye.
The two-handed giant sword was picked up, and a swift sweep from right to left, both speed and strength, was the ultimate embodiment of his lifelong cultivation.
Clearly this move, Hercules has this confidence, even if the other party is a ninth-order swordsman, it is possible to avoid it, and if you take it hard, you will find death.
And Lin Shuo looked at this giant man who made violent moves, and felt a little disappointed in his heart.
The speed and strength have indeed reached the level of the Nine Realms of Cultivation of the Nine Inch Family of the Hunting Gate, but this person's understanding of battle is still only at the level of Godia of Borneo.
Godia also pounced like this at that time, and then was lightly cleaned up by Lin Shuo.
Of course, Hercules was stronger and faster than Godia at the time, but that was about it.
Not to mention Lin Shuo himself, the current Nine Leaders of the Hunting Gate, except for Cao Mian, the mastermind, it is not difficult for the others to clean up Hercules.
So Lin Shuo's disappointment is not just for Hercules.
The cultivation level of the Great West Continent is indeed higher than that of the rest of the earth, and there is a foundation for the cultivation of the whole people, but it can be seen from the actual combat level of Hercules that even if it is a ninth-order level, it is still difficult to put too much pressure on Lin Shuo.
At least in the small place of the Duchy of Mia, Lin Shuo's intention to gain understanding and improve his cultivation through fighting with masters is impossible to achieve.
It may be at the level of a kingdom or empire that those who have titles can be regarded as strong enemies.
So Lin Shuo was a little excited, and used the six points of strength in his hand to pull the chasing master out.
It was also a sweep from right to left, and before the opponent's blade touched the skin of his neck, Chasing Ye had already swept down the body of this giant man.
There was a loud bang, and Hercules flew as if he had been hit by a train.
The giant man dragged his giant sword, drew a smooth parabola in the moonlight, and flew over the battlements of the city wall.
The city wall is more than 80 meters high, and the bottom is a bluestone paved road.
There was a long series of quacky screams, followed by the movement of a heavy object falling to the ground.
After that, it was quiet both under the city walls and on the towers.
Lin Shuo invited the chasing master back to his shoulder, and looked up at the onlookers on the city tower:
"When you're done, let's continue eating. ”
