Section 239 Swordsmanship

Grace held a battle axe in one hand and a round shield in the other, her knees slightly bent and her weight downward, her eyes fixed on her opponent, Will, the knight of Count Praun. Sir Adolphus. Grace always remembers what her martial arts teacher said, never leave your enemies, and the slightest carelessness will cost you your life. Nearly every Viking warrior has undergone this training, and they know that their sword will never leave their enemies alive where they are going, and that their enemies will never show mercy.

Will, the knight of Count Proon. When Sir Adolphus saw Grace's movements, and how skillfully he wielded his battle axe, he thought that this was a woman to be reckoned with, so he put away his contempt and replaced the sword in his hand with his usual left hand.

Although Will is peerless and contemptuous, a knight's duel with a woman is itself a psychological disadvantage, and if he does not take the initiative to attack, people will think that the knight is timid and despise him. Will. Sir Adolphus reluctantly approached Gryth, and when he was five paces away from Grace, Will. Sir Adolphus, tentatively stabbing Grace with his sword, Will. Sir Adolphus relied on his tall stature and strength, but although Grace was a woman, the Vikings were not short in stature, and the people who survived in the bitter cold were inherently tough and powerful.

"When". The sword and the tomahawk collided with a crisp sound, Will. Sir Adolph's sword overpowered Grace from above, after all, a man's arm strength was still better than that of a woman, but Grace did not show weakness. She used the sliding between the tomahawk and the sword to unload Will. Sir Adolf had most of his strength, and the short-handled battle axe was more agile than the longsword, and Grace constantly changed her pace and position, surrounding Will. Sir Adolphus, attacking in various parts of his body, as well as in his legs, persecuted Will. Sir Adolf had to parry with his sword.

"Looks like Grace has the upper hand." Sir Ron said to Arjord.

"Not necessarily, being able to be a knight must be extraordinary." Harold watched with his arms folded. The duel between Grace and Sir Will in the venue.

Each of Grace's attacks won the cheers of the Viking knights. The Vikings were rough and martial, and the victory of the daughter of the former Danish king was like a victory for their own side, while the Masons who watched felt that they had lost face, and a Mason knight was suppressed by the Viking women. This displeased the hearts of Catholics, who were already patriarchal. But. Sir Will did keep a hand. He was rude on the outside but careful on the inside, and his seemingly concessions and disadvantages were only to test Grace's strength and speed, and many of Sir Will's rivals had been deceived by his appearance. As a result, he fell under his sword.

"Sss Arold watched the duel between Grace and Sir Will, in this era, Arold has experienced wars and duels, coupled with the careful teaching of the Wendell family, he also has some experience in swordsmanship, although he has now become the earl of one side, there are not many opportunities to really fight people in person, but he still has some experience in personal duels under the influence of his ears and eyes, he watched Sir Will not run out of strength, but took a defensive position that was completely inconsistent with his appearance, and he was already worried about Grace in his heart.

"Ah~~." At this moment, Sir Will withdrew his sword slightly, and stepped into a posture as if to dodge the backward movement, but Grace was unaware of it, holding a round shield and a battle axe, and slashing with all his might, the Viking warriors' combat skills were like their culture, and the basic method of fighting was to attack and rush, relying on their courageous momentum and strength.

"Not good." Arrod's face changed, Sir Will used this clearly deceptive sword position, if it was the same Germanic swordsman, he would never be fooled, but Grace was a Viking and did not understand the skills of Germanic swordsmanship, she attacked with all her strength while exposing her body to Sir Will's next attack range, and Grace herself unknowingly took the wrong fatal step.

"Hmph." Sir Will saw that Grace was moving without knowing whether he was alive or dead, his eyes showed a touch of murderous intent, his brain immediately sent out an attack command, and the biological signal was sent through the nerve endings, and suddenly the muscles of Sir Will's left arm holding the sword tightened, and a force gathered instantly, the wrist bones rotated under the pull of the muscles, and the long sword in his hand changed its position, and the tip of the sword rushed straight to Grace's chest, and Sir Will's biceps and arm muscles were tense like a bowstring, Just waiting for the moment when it is launched.

"Bell~~~." The gathered power was finally released, and the tip of the sword stabbed diagonally upwards from below, and Grace also noticed that something was wrong, but she jumped too high to open her chest, and seeing that a young girl was about to disappear, Grace's eyes looked down, and she saw the tip of the sword coming towards her chest, but neither the shield nor the battle axe had time to retract, and in that moment of lightning and thunder, a crisp sound was suddenly heard.

"What do you mean, Lord Count Mecklenburg?" Sir Will's face turned pale, he stood up straight, held his trembling sword, and said loudly in anger.

"Sir Will, this is a duel, not a life-and-death fight." Arold pulled out his terminator at the crucial moment and tried his best to block Sir Will's fatal blow, he blocked Grace behind him and said to Sir Will.

"A duel is inherently a dangerous thing, and if you are afraid of death, it is better not to accept this duel in the first place." Sir Will said sarcastically, the other people also felt that Arrod's interference was a little strange, it was normal for there to be deaths and injuries in the duel, once the duel was accepted, sometimes it was the result of endless death, even if it was so, it would lead to the blood feud of many noble families, but many knights in the duel in order to avoid future revenge and trouble to minimize casualties, but Grace is a foreigner If she dies in a duel, there is no relative who can help her avenge, even if she is killed, she can only be killed.

"Grace is the one I shelter and must not be harmed." Arold told Sir Will that Grace's special status was very important to Arrold and that he should not die here.

"Count, please get out of the way, this is my duel, even if the Viking knight dies in battle, it is glorious." Grace knew Arold had saved her life, but the pride of being a Viking warrior kept her back, and her people were watching her.

"Ugh." Arrod frowned a little embarrassed, but he really had no reason to stop a duel, in this era, whether it is a pagan or a Catholic, a duel represents the religious divine meaning of the divine will, even if he can use his Earl's authority to stop it once, but he must also consider the attitude of the surrounding Masons, at this time there are already Masons who have begun to coax, "Be careful yourself." ”

"Don't worry." Grace nodded at Arrod, she knew that she had just been deceived by Sir Will's appearance, and as a result, she was a little more impatient and almost fell into Sir Will's trap, and now she calmed her mind and focused more on her opponent's movements.

"Watch his shoulders." Arold said to Grace as she turned past her, her lips moved slightly.

"Shoulders?" Grace's ears were very good, of course, she heard Arrod's words clearly, but after listening to Arold's words, she didn't understand the meaning at all, why did she pay attention to Sir Will's shoulder? This question was imprinted in her mind, and with this question she re-entered the battle with Sir Will, this time the battle was more intense, the swords and tomahawks of both sides came and went, and the crisp sound of weapons clashing frequently.
