When Regner returned to the hotel, he found Cordak, Vera, Innellis, and Erin all looking at him gossipily.

"Don't ask, she doesn't listen to me at all. Ragnar knew what they were curious about, so he said bluntly.

"Don't be discouraged, you also know that Anne is a stubborn person, how can anger be so easily extinguished?" Vera advised.

"I know. Regner smiled: "I'm sorry for her anyway, it's normal for her to be angry with me now, and I'll find a way to make her angry in the future." ”

"Okay, don't think about it yet, it's time for the two of us to compete in two days, so it's better to study the opponent more. Kordak said.

Over the next few days, Kordak and Regna began to focus on the game. Although Regner didn't care much about the results of the game, judging by the group, he would not be able to meet Annelot until at least the semi-finals. Therefore, although he has full confidence in his own strength, he still chooses to prepare honestly, in case he capsizes in the gutter, it will be too impossible to row.

And to be honest, there are a lot of good players in this game. He found a groundbinder in the preliminaries alone, who knows what kind of strong man will appear in the future?

As for Cordak, after listening to Vera's words, he also packed up his relaxed mind and was ready to deal with this game. Vera is right, mercenaries are not popular in the continent of Chino. If he wants to make life better for the people around him, then it's time for him to do something else.

And after much deliberation, Kordaq finally felt that this competition seemed to be an opportunity. If he really performs well and is favored by the Hawke Empire, it seems that it is not bad to go to the army with Regner and a few people. Anyway, it's all about fighting and killing, how can it be better to have the empire in the back to do logistics support than to be a mercenary, isn't it?

Therefore, he is determined to deal with this game well, even if he can't be favored by the empire at that time, at least he can earn some bonuses to subsidize his family.

Luckily, Regner and Kordak found out after investigation that their opponents in both groups seemed to be mesmer. There were two other warriors and a ranger in Kordak's group, one of whom was level fourteen and the other two were only level twelve. None of these guys should pose much of a threat to Kordak, and the guy laughed a few times when he knew the depth of his opponent, and then began to study the next opponent after the group stage.

As for the rest of Regner's group, they were not very strong, and the only trouble was a thirteenth-level mage. Regner's strength on the surface is only eight or nine levels, and he also knows that it is impossible to reach the final at this level. So, after confirming that Anne Lot was really participating in this game, Regnar also decided not to restrain his breath to disguise it. He believed that as long as he was serious, even if he didn't use attribute abilities, it wouldn't be difficult to solve a mage.

The match was fast in coming, with both Regna and Kordak winning their first opponents with ease. But unexpectedly, the fourteenth-level warriors of Kordak's group actually lost to the twelfth-level ranger. Since it was a match between the two of them after Kordak and another Tier 12 warrior, he watched the battle in his spare time.

I have to say that although the level of fighting spirit is not high, the strength of that ranger is indeed very strong. His archery skills were even better than Vera's, and the warrior had already been hit by two arrows before he could rush forward. Kordak believed that if it weren't for the ban on killing, the Ranger would have been able to shoot an arrow through the warrior's head with a single shot.

In addition, the ranger's melee ability is also quite strong, and the opponent's warrior can't even beat the ranger in hand-to-hand combat when he is injured. In the end, he was cut by the ranger and completely lost his ability to move, so he had no choice but to admit defeat. Because this kind of injury must be treated by the priest as soon as possible, if it is delayed any longer, he will probably be completely crippled.

The Ranger's performance won the applause of most of the audience present, not only because of his strength, but also because of his age. According to the information, this guy is just a twenty-one-year-old young man. With such strength at such an age, this ranger can be called a young man no matter what.

Kordak's face became solemn after watching this game, he thought that his strength was better than that fourteenth-level warrior, but at that time, if he had fought the ranger by himself, he really didn't have the full certainty of killing him. And according to the game arrangement, his next opponent is the ranger.

For this reason, Kordaq had to ask Regner to accompany him in training. Because the Ranger's melee combat style is very similar to Regner's, both of them take the route of speed and dexterity. In contrast, Regner was naturally superior, so Kordaq believed that as long as he could match Regner, he would be able to outperform the Ranger in hand-to-hand combat.

The day of the second race is fast approaching.

"Hello, I'm Albert. "The Ranger is very kind and welcoming to Kordak.

"Kordak. Cordak smiled, and after a closer look, Kordak realized that this kid was not only talented, but also good-looking. He has short brown and yellow hair, clear and rigid lines on his face, and a height of more than 1.8 meters, he looks like a tough guy with a full temperament.

"I watched your last fight, you were strong, even better than my last opponent. "So I'm going to give it my all, and you're going to be ready." “

"I will, of course. Kordaq said.

The two shook hands, and then pulled apart twenty meters according to the regulations. Then, the host announced the start of the competition.

Kordak didn't wear iron chain mail or armor today, he chose a light leather armor. This was decided after discussions with Regner and Vera, as Ebelon was too dangerous from a distance, and he had to get as close as possible to defeat him. For this reason, Kordaq would rather sacrifice some of his defense power to increase his speed.

And the facts proved that he made the right choice, although Alberton was quite skilled in archery. But the leather-clad Kordak was like a large, nimble bear, and he dodged as he lunged until he got close to Aberon, only to be struck in the rib by the ranger's arrow.

And once in close combat, Kordak's physical advantage was immediately on display. He suppressed Alberon to death with a fierce fighting style. Even though this guy is faster than Kordak, his movement space is very limited under Kordak's wide open and closed moves.

Albert's sword barely withstood Kordak's fierce swing, and then he was stumbled by Kordak's sheer force. Kordak saw the opportunity to press on again, grabbed Alberon's wrist with his right hand, and prepared to twist it.

"I throw in the towel!" Aberon suddenly shouted.

"Huh?" Kordak was stunned, he didn't expect Alberon to admit defeat so easily, but he didn't let go of his hand because of this sentence, he asked, "Are you sure?"

"Yes. Alberon nodded, then raised his left hand and made a gesture through which the contestant could declare defeat.

Seeing him admit defeat in public, Cordak completely relieved himself and let go of Alberton's wrist.

"Ah, you've got a lot of strength. Alberon moved his wrist and muttered: "If I was twisted by your wrist just now, I basically wouldn't have to fight, in this case, I might as well admit defeat as soon as possible, so that I can save more suffering, in fact, I am still very afraid of pain." ”

"You can see ......" Kordak looked at Alberon a little wordlessly, and he suddenly noticed that the boy always seemed to speak with a little childishness.

"Anyway, I'm sure I'll win the fight against the other fighter, and I'll be able to qualify when the time comes, so why am I working so hard here?" said Alberon indifferently.

"You're kind of funny, kid. Kordak smiled, he felt that Albert's personality was very tempered with him: "Have two drinks with me tonight? I have a few companions to introduce to you when the time comes." ”

"Of course!" Alberon also smiled, "But you have a treat, I don't have that much money!"
