Volume 1: Arrogance Chapter 31: Barracks Competition, Convincing
You must know that weapons are an inseparable part of a mercenary, and as far as a normal mercenary is concerned, he is generally looking for good materials to refine his weapons rather than exchanging them. Some mercenaries will only have one weapon in their lifetime, even if that weapon is just a very common dagger in the beginning.
"Bell!" "Ka!" "Bang dang!"
A series of sounds came out almost at the same time, and the girl who was indifferent just now just came to the man's face in an instant, and the long sword in his hand was also against his neck at this moment, and the long sword that was supposed to be in the man's hand was lying quietly not far away at this time.
Quiet, a dead silence, the man stared at Xiao Yueluo with big eyes and a look of disbelief. From the beginning to the end of the battle, it only took about a breath, and the difference in strength was self-evident.
"The reaction is good, but it's still a little worse in terms of strength, otherwise you would still be able to survive this first move."
Withdrawing the sword in her hand, Xiao Yueluo didn't forget to tell the man her opinion.
"Who's next?"
With a loud voice, Xiao Yueluo once again set her eyes on this group of challengers, but this time she fell into a longer silence, after all, no matter what the strength of that person just now, but that instant kill alone made some people retreat.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, and soon a large man with open arms in a cloth shirt stood out in the crowd again, and his strong muscles could tell at a glance that he was a mercenary who was known for his strength.
"Earl."
"Dawn Moon Avelina Evelina."
As soon as he came up, Dahan directly reported his name, and in order to show respect for Xiao Yueluo, he also said his name.
"Greatsword?" Xiao Yueluo raised her eyebrows and looked at the weapon that Earl pulled out from behind, not that it was too surprised, but because there was no such weapon in the barracks.
"You don't have to use this too."
It seems that he saw Xiao Yueluo's embarrassment, Earl was very happy, not to mention whether there was such a weapon here, even if there was, he didn't think that the girl in front of him could handle it.
"In that case...... So this is my choice this time. ”
“……”
The corners of his eyes twitched slightly and looked at the long-handled giant axe that Xiao Yueluo held in his hand, Earl wanted to say something, but after noticing the girl's ease, he swallowed it completely, and at the same time, the complexion on his face became solemn for a moment, because he understood that the person in front of him was by no means as weak as he looked.
"So, let's get started."
The giant axe in her hand spun around a few times at will, and then Xiao Yueluo didn't notice the constipated expressions of the others, and rushed directly towards Earl.
The most important thing in the use of heavy weapons is the strength of the user, after all, if you can't hold the weapon, let alone fight. After that, there is still the control of power, every blow, every action needs to have accurate judgment, not moving like a mountain and moving like thunder, probably nothing more than that. Of course, except for Xiao Yueluo, who can use the giant sword as an ordinary long sword, after all, sealing the throat with a sword is no longer something that ordinary people can do.
"Bell!"
The two collided, and the tremendous force passed through the giant axe, and then through El's greatsword to the arm, and at the same time, the resulting air flow rolled up a cloud of dust.
"Yes, go ahead."
Seeing that Earl caught her attack, Xiao Yueluo hooked her lips, with obvious approval on her face, and then turned around and slashed over again, but Earl, who had the first experience, also blocked Xiao Yueluo's blow again.
"Okay, that's amazing."
“……”
From time to time, there were a few words of admiration from the crowd, but more often than not, there was silence after shock, and although they had not experienced the battle firsthand, most of them just stood by and watched, already knowing the gap between themselves and the two men. And there is also the scene of the previous second kill as a foreshadowing, and many people are completely convinced by Xiao Yueluo at this moment.
Mercenaries are such a group of people, no matter their appearance, no matter their status, as long as your temperament is in tune with them and your power is above them, then they will respect you.
"How? Can you tell who wins? ”
"Dawn Moon Nellier." Glancing at the emir who had suddenly rushed to his side, Eudora answered his question despite being a little depressed.
"Why?"
"Why? Look under the feet of those two men. ”
This time it was Caesar who came from the other side who answered, in fact, he had been paying attention to Xiao Yueluo since the previous special roll call, every word he said, every action he did would think about it carefully, but in the end, he only came to the conclusion that this woman was strong.
Following Caesars's words, his gaze fell on the two men who were surrounded in the center, and soon the emir noticed a slight difference, that is, the ground on Earl's side was sinking deeper.
"Although there is no comparison in strength, there is also a silver-level guy in the team over there who uses a broadsword, but this Earl looks at least a gold-level, maybe even stronger."
"Gold?"
Eudora touched her chin, her voice sounding a little low, but she agreed with Caesars' words: "What about you? Listening to your tone, you have at least a gold level, right? Or have you reached the king level? ”
“……”
"Sure enough."
The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked to look at Caesars, and for his silence, Eudora also had the answer in her heart. In fact, although the task issued by the Mercenary Guild this time is set to level three, the restricted level is an exception, and the mercenaries above the silver level include the silver level, as long as you think you have this kind of strength, you can receive this recruitment task, in other words, the lowest level standing here now is also the silver level.
"Now I'm a little curious about the eastern defense line, what kind of situation would make these nobles willing to pay such a bloody cost."
Eudora's muttering didn't attract the attention of the others, and so did Dawn Yueluo, who was in a stalemate with Earl at this time.
"Looks like you're at your limit."
The silver-white pupils reflected Earl's slightly trembling figure, and the stalemate of several minutes made the physical strength of both of them deplete to a certain extent. Especially Earl, at this time he can only hold on because of the will not to lose.
However, not wanting to lose does not mean that he will not lose, feeling the disorder of Earl's breathing, the giant axe in Xiao Yueluo's hand suddenly turned and stuck the big sword, and then pushed and pulled the sword directly into his hand.
"I throw in the towel."
Seeing that his weapon fell into the other party's hands, Earl didn't say much, but there was a hint of respect in his eyes that looked at Xiao Yueluo.
"Anyone else? "
After handing the greatsword back to Earl, Xiao Yueluo looked around again. But this time, everyone unexpectedly did not hesitate, perhaps because they saw the fatigue on Xiao Yueluo's face, or maybe they were infected by the atmosphere of the battle.
But for whatever reason, they did stand up, from the initial disobedience, to the respect after being defeated, and this is exactly what she wants to see step by step.
"Is there anyone else? "
In the afterglow of the setting sun, Xiao Yueluo's voice was obviously lacking in qi from the barracks. But in the eyes of everyone, not only did they not have half a point of contempt, but they were full of admiration.
Especially Udora, if at the beginning it was just two eyes shining, now it has reached the level of kneeling and licking.
"Is there anyone else? "
Xiao Yueluo spoke up again, although she was still lacking in qi, but it was much better than just now: "What about the three of you? "
Seeing that no one in front of her stood up, Xiao Yueluo then set her eyes on the three Caesars.
"Do you three want to try it? "
In fact, judging from the list of people who wanted to challenge her before, she didn't need to ask this sentence, but many of the mercenaries who didn't plan to join in the challenge just now, so she asked such a question.
Another point is that she has to make sure that everyone here is convinced, after all, going to war is not playing, and she needs to send everyone together to ensure that the casualties are kept to a minimum.
"I don't take advantage of others, so I'd better wait for the next time. "
"Well, so do I. "
Seeing Caesars refuse, Emir also waved his hand and pushed it off, while Eudora ran directly to Xiao Yueluo's side, and the smile on her face looked strange.
"I'll forget it, although I haven't compared, but I'm still very clear that it's not your opponent. Eh, by the way, do you want the adjutant you said earlier? "
However, in the face of Udora's rogue performance, Xiao Yueluo did not pay attention to her, but just glanced at her and looked away.
"Since there is no one, then I will come here to train you from tomorrow, and no one is allowed to be late, do you understand? "
"Hear me clearly. "
The jagged voice made Xiao Yueluo frown directly, and then asked again, "Give me another answer, did you hear clearly?" "
"Hear me clearly! "
With loudness back to loudness, with momentum back to momentum, the neat voice came out of the barracks for a long time before it dispersed.
"In that case, except for those who have already chosen, the rest of you can choose a suitable weapon here, and I will watch the opportunity to find some mistakes for you. "
Xiao Yueluo's words made the mercenaries present fall silent again, but soon erupted in amazing cheers.
The weapon was chosen at random, and it was given away for free, although it was only one for each person, but the quality was far better than that of most of the people present.
The sound of robbery, the sound of fighting, Xiao Yueluo stood aside and watched all this but did not stop it silently, after all, as long as there were no casualties, she still did not reject this kind of thing that could improve her fighting spirit and strength.
"Aren't you going? "
Glancing at the few people who stood beside her at some point, Xiao Yueluo was a little puzzled, she could still understand that there was no suitable weapon for those who held a big sword, so what about this one who used a sword?
Brother, you can see the gap on this weapon, is it really good not to change it?
