Chapter 63: First Meeting
The morning sun was shining, and the air was dry and warm under the scorching sun, and it was a great time for the troops to train, as if exposure to the sun would speed up the expansion of their muscles. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but in any case, after such calcination, at least it can ensure that their will can keep up with the growth of those muscles.
Yu Yi and Si'ang hadn't spoken a few words, and on the other side, Nelson had already walked over with his former centurion. Under the scorching sun, the centurion who was training new recruits wore only a cloth undershirt, but it seemed to be of average quality. He could clearly see the beads of sweat rolling on the other man's skin, but they also outlined the grooves of those muscles.
"Hello!" The other party greeted in a loud voice, the former centurion was a spirited young man, although he was not much older than Yu Yi in age, but at a glance he could see that this was a veteran of the military who was not small, and this could be seen from his dark skin color alone. He puffed up his chest and clenched his fists with his fingers facing inwards against his erected chest.
This seems to be the military salute here, Yu Yi has seen it before, but he is still used to his original etiquette, nodded, and stretched out his right hand in a friendly manner.
But the other party seemed to directly skim his handshake request, and directly made a gesture of invitation to the side and said, "Let's take you to know your troops first." ”
Withdrawing his hand a little embarrassed, Yu Yi followed.
Nelson next to him took in the scene and smiled like a prank.
Approaching the neatly lined line of eighty soldiers, the centurion passed in front of them with two men. "Although this is a young team, they have not yet been baptized by the war, but in the past month, their enthusiasm and vitality have given me reason to believe that they will one day enter the first team!" As he examined each line, he looked back and said, beads of sweat often running down his wet curls.
Yu Yi was also looking at those slightly green faces, although he couldn't touch every face a few times, but those eyes full of anger and flashing hope gradually infected his emotions. It's just that when the curly-haired centurion said the word "war", the excitement immediately faded by half. As soon as he thought that one day he might have to take these young people on the battlefield of uncertain life and death, he felt that the responsibility on his shoulders suddenly became much heavier.
"Each of them has dormant potentials in their bodies, and the work of tapping them out is up to you. Your Excellency the new Centurion! As he spoke, the curly-haired young man suddenly stopped, turned to the black-haired young man who was scanning the team, and said that the other party looked so young, which made him a little uneasy when he said this, but he still finished speaking. I'll send you the centurion armband in the evening, be sure to lead these kids forward. ”
This announcement was like a surprise attack on thousands of horses for the soldiers present.
"Centurion, where are you going?"
"Are you ready to run away on your own? Big Brother Gavin. ”
"Who is this little white face?"
For a while, all kinds of criticism rang out, and even the other hundred-man team on the side noticed the movement here.
"Shut up! Soldier! The training isn't over yet! The former centurion named Gavin shouted with a deafening roar, and the ranks immediately returned to order. Don't forget what I told you on the first day, what is the vocation of a soldier? ”
After a long time, no one answered, but it was clearly not that they had forgotten the answer.
"This is the general's order, and you must obey it! Do you hear that? ”
There was still no reply.
After a long time, someone in the crowd asked, "Centurion, where are you going?" ”
"That's not something you need to worry about, soldier!"
"We don't think this little white face is qualified to lead us!"
When these words sounded in the hundred-man team, Sir Ang leaned into the ears of the deed master almost at the same time: "Lance, the first problem is here. ”
Sure enough, that sentence was like a flood that had broken through a dam, and the soldiers' emotions erupted, and more and more cries rang out.
"Why don't you two compete in front of everyone?"
It's always not too much trouble to watch the excitement, and at this time, Nelson slowly stepped forward and proposed "with some kindness". His voice was loud enough for all the soldiers present to hear it. Even the other troops on the drill ground had already observed the movement on this side, or at least their eyes were looking this way.
"Fight! War! War! ”
The enthusiastic cries overshadowed for a while, and suddenly the protagonists on the field were only the new black-haired little white face and the strong former centurion Gavin on the other side.
Sir Ang stretched out a hand, placed it on the shoulder, and gave it a gentle push.
The slight force was like a homeopathic wind, pushing the sails that Yu Yi was waiting for, and he walked all the way to Gavin. The other party spoke first:
"Your Excellency, it seems that these young soldiers prefer to have you introduce yourself in this way."
"It's easy to say, buddy, you will be merciful in a while!" Yu Yi can be regarded as taking on the challenge.
"Go get the wood for practice!" Nelson was quite active at this time, and when he saw that the two sides had reached a consensus, he immediately ordered the soldiers.
Naturally, the soldiers were willing to obey this order, and soon put their commonly used weapons on the ground. But both men ended up making the same choice, sword and shield.
Before the war, Yu Yi naturally took off the things on his body, and the hot weather made him take off his coat generously. Although his body has grown a lot compared to reality after the tempering of these days, in the eyes of these soldiers, it is still thin arms and legs. So they looked forward to the opening of the battle even more.
'Fight and fight, and don't fight for a day! Yu Yi complained while moving his hands and walked towards his opponent.
Gavin stretched out his shield, and the meaning was obvious, at least so that the newcomer on the other side would also realize it at once. As soon as the shields of the two touched, the battle began!
"Attack! Offensive! Offensive! The soldiers of the 300th Brigade of the Second Brigade shouted in unison, and the troops of the 2nd Brigade also watched the battle in the distance.
‘-2’‘-2’‘-2’
Yu Yiyi connected Gavin's three attacks, and he was also a warrior using a sword and shield, and the opponent's style of play was obviously more aggressive than his. And in that kind of attack, there seems to be a kind of balance, every time the slash is accurately blocked, the damage hit is definitely '-2', which is definitely not accidental. It's just that this alone is far from enough to defeat him.
At the moment when the three consecutive attacks stopped, he made a backhand half-spin slash and counterattacked, only to find that the opponent who was still attacking just now was actually ready to block as soon as possible.
'When! ’
The tremendous force forced Gavin to take half a step back, and the pressure on his arm was greatly unexpected by him, and it seemed that this newcomer was not as weak as he seemed on the surface. He couldn't help but get serious, jumped forward, and hit three times in a row.
The old trick was repeated, Yu Yi naturally blocked it accurately with his shield, and after receiving the next set of combos again, he saw that his health value had also been lostHP: 34/46, and he didn't plan to have any reservations, and was preparing to fight back. only to find that the other party suddenly leaned on the shield and hit him fiercely.
The two shields collided, "Smack!" There was a loud bang, and he only felt that his hand was light, and the wooden shield was easily smashed by the other party! I see! Only then did he realize that the previous two rounds of seemingly weak attacks were actually part of this "Broken Shield" skill!
"Good!" Thunderous applause resounded in the training ground! The soldiers saw that their centurions had the upper hand, and naturally cheered in unison. But......
"I'm sorry, I can't lose this matchup." Yu Yi shook his empty left hand and said softly. Indeed, it's time for this showdown to come to an end.
After the impact of the broken shield, Gavin really needed some time to breathe, and he counterattacked and defended, standing on the arm and shield vigilantly guarding against the opponent. As long as the fatigue period after the skill is cast has passed, his chances of winning will be quite large.
Unfortunately, it won't wait until then. Yu Yi sprinted forward, even if he only had an ordinary one-handed short sword in his hand, as long as he comprehended the trick of [Sword and Shield Raging Tide], he could still use this move!
'Shield! The left fist slammed into the opponent's on-the-spot wooden shield, deflecting it off, 'Sword! Seizing this gap, the back of the wooden sword in his right hand slapped the opponent's chest hard, "Shield! The punch took the man raising the shield a few steps back, and without waiting for his reaction, 'Sword! The wooden sword backhand drew the opponent's right arm holding the sword again.
The fierce attack made Gavin unable to fight back, and the soldiers who had just been ready to celebrate the victory suddenly calmed down, quietly watching the little white face exert that terrifying suppressive force in battle.
"Shield!" With the last punch, Yu Yi even shouted. A punch struck the opponent's wooden shield, and the hardwood shield also shattered in response. The impact sent Gavin to the ground with a heavy slam, and a wooden sword slammed into his neck.
There is a clear difference between victory and defeat. Before the action of controlling the enemy lasted for a second, Yu Yi threw the sword aside. For the second time today, he kindly stretched out his right hand to the other party, but this time, he was not rejected again. So, he pulled Gavin up.
Those who are satisfied with this ending will definitely not have more than three people on the field. Nelson pursed his lips and smiled noncommittally, and then quietly walked away.
"Brother Gavin, you deliberately let him win, right?" At this time, such doubts sounded.
I only heard Gavin say angrily: "Bastard! Are you questioning the honor of my soldiers? ”
The eighty soldiers were silent again, and indeed they did not know whether to applaud or sigh at this time.
At this time, they only heard an unfamiliar voice sound: "Hello everyone of the 300th team of the 2nd Brigade, first meeting, I am your new centurion, I think in the next few days, it will be our turn to share honor and disgrace." ”
It was a long time before the first applause rang out, and it was from Gavin. Immediately afterwards, eighty people spontaneously raised their left hands and shouted: "Share honor and disgrace!" ”
