Chapter 25: The Contest
Before everyone could get out of the way, a heavily armored warrior walked over to him.
The creature was clad in heavy ringed iron armor, with a broadsword at his waist, and a sleeveless linen shirt underneath the iron armor, revealing strong and powerful arms.
"You." The warrior stared at Asker and said, "Strong. ”
"I know." Aske was a little surprised.
Is this a hidden combat effectiveness test?
"You should join us." The warrior said.
"If you join you, you can enter the Olympic City, right?" Asker asked in confirmation.
"Of course." The Spartan warrior said, "As a member of the Spartan envoys, you have the right to enter the city with us. ”
"Actually, I'm currently the head of a mercenary group." Asker gestured to the girls behind him, "Can you arrange for my people to go into the city together?" ”
The Spartan warrior's cold gaze swept behind him, lingering on each of the girls for a moment, before falling back on Asker's.
"Why are they all women?" The Spartan warrior asked.
Asker: ........................
"It was an accident." Aske said helplessly, "Our mercenary group only recruits people based on potential, not gender. ”
"What potential do have?" The Spartan warrior continued.
"Hey!" Sidlifa cried out in dissatisfaction, "It's too much! Watch out for me to cut you! ”
"When a chick puts on an eagle's feathers, it is still a chick." Said the Spartan warrior.
More Spartan warriors came this way, looking at the girls with strange eyes.
"Girls should stay home." A Spartan said.
"Weaving."
"Prepare the food."
"The man who serves you."
"Bear birth and raise children."
The Spartans said expressionlessly, as if in a verbal way.
"We're not helpless women." Eleanor retorted, "If you have any doubts about this, you can come out and have a discussion." ”
"We don't compete with women." Said the Spartan warrior.
Belch. Eleanor had no choice but to hold her forehead, and she heard Sheila say:
"It's useless."
"These Spartans are creatures with a greater sense of honor than heaven."
"It's harder for you to make them fight with women they despise than it is to kill them."
Aske also sighed, the stubbornness of these Spartans, he had experienced it in the games of his previous life.
However, I remember that there seemed to be a female player at the time, and she found a corresponding way?
He beckoned, called Medea over, and whispered a few words in his ear.
"Okay." Medea laughed evilly, "I'm the best at dealing with these stupid big guys." ”
She went to find Eleanor again and whispered to her.
"Isn't that right?" Eleanor was embarrassed.
"What's the matter?" Medea disagreed, "Or do you have a better way?" ”
So Eleanor sighed too, and stepped forward, saying:
"I'm going to challenge you."
The challenged Spartan warrior looked at her as if he was mentally retarded, and showed a completely disdainful expression in response.
"Or are you still afraid to respond to a woman's challenge since you were defeated by the Amazons last time?" Eleanor asked.
As soon as these words came out, the Spartans immediately changed color.
"Defeated by the Amazons" is a historical setting in the game, which tells the story of Dadasos, the famous warrior of Sparta, who met the Amazons while traveling in Anatolia more than 200 years ago.
The Amazons, like the Spartans, were also a military people who were all soldiers, but they respected women and discriminated against men, which was exactly the opposite of the Spartans.
The two talked for a few words, but the words were not speculative, and as a result, they fought.
The end result was unexpected, Dadasos was defeated by the Amazon, and she was taken back to be her husband.
By the time the Spartans learned of this and sent envoys to the Amazons, Dadassus' wives were pregnant.
Then it is even more impossible to release people.
So the envoy team and the Amazons had a collective fight, although the Spartans were brave and good at fighting, but this was the territory of the Amazons, and they had a hunting tradition without a sense of honor, seventy or eighty people directly surrounded them, and they captured all the six envoys and captured them back to the unmarried Amazonian girl.
Although the players have gone through a series of research, it is speculated that these Spartans lost on purpose, because the Amazon tribes at that time had more women than men, and the hunter people did not have any concept of marriage, so they ......
However, this kind of thing has always been regarded by Sparta as a great shame, so that if you mention it in front of a Spartan, then the follow-up can only be solved with iron and blood.
"I accept, ma'am." The challenged Spartan warrior could not hear the anger, but said with a cold expression, "However, this is not a challenge, but to save your reputation." ”
"It doesn't matter, it's all the same for me." Eleanor said.
The girls laughed, because this was Asker's classic line, and every time they instigated the girls to practice with him, they would use this sentence to coax each other not to keep their hands.
Of course, even if the girls used real knives and guns, they really couldn't hurt Asker, but it was inevitable that they would be beaten.
"As a foreigner and a woman, I will not use an iron sword against you." The Spartan warrior said coldly, taking a torture stick from the side, "When you lie on the bed to recuperate, think about why you can't provoke a Spartan." ”
The torture stick, which the Spartans used to train the boy scouts, is 1.7 meters long and has the thickness of a forearm.
"In that case, I don't take advantage of weapons." Eleanor laid down the Adamantite spear and took the wooden batons and shields from the Spartans.
The two men were holding sticks against each other, and soon a clearing formed on the platform, and the surrounding pedestrians turned away from this side with fearful expressions.
"Ten breaths." The bald man sitting behind the conscription workbench crossed his arms and said indifferently, "You can't end the battle within ten breaths, Tururens, remember to receive twenty military sticks after the war." ”
"Five breaths at most, otherwise thirty military sticks." A Spartan warrior named Turulenus stood on the field, holding his club in front of him, tensing his muscles.
"No problem, right?" Nola, who was watching from the side, said worriedly.
"The opponent is at most a Lv.3 transcendent, and she is not inferior in strength, so she should be able to finish within ten breaths." "Of course, I'm talking about defeating opponents. ”
"After all, I've been training for so long." He said with a smile.
Looking at Asker's confident expression, Nora couldn't help but feel relieved.
Since he said so, Eleanor ......
It should be fine, right?
