Chapter 52: The Nord Royal Guard
"Oh, is another brave warrior coming to challenge?" The person in charge of the arena said with a smile, the person in charge of these arenas greeted the mercenaries who came to the arena to participate in the competition, these are all food and clothing, how dare they easily offend, even if the other party is the material for cannon fodder on the field, they will enjoy god-like treatment here, otherwise, how can anyone come here to compete, there are so many arenas on the mainland, and the competition is very fierce.
"Today is still a one-on-one real sword duel, the prize is a clear sword and thunder, and now the guard is a retired former Nord royal guard, and now he has won the sixth game, do you want to go up and play?" The person in charge asked with a smile.
"Broken thunder, it turns out that kid is guarding, since I haven't seen him for a long time, let's go and take a look." Li Mu thought for a while and made a decision, "Okay, then I'll go play." By the way, do you allow players to bet on themselves here? Li Mu took out the money bag and said.
"Well, yes, yes, it's okay, but we accept a maximum of 50 dinars for players to bet, and any more is no longer allowed." The person in charge said apologetically.
"Oh, it's okay, 50 is 50," Li Mu skillfully counted out 50 dinars and threw them on the table, and then asked Kress, "Are you waiting here for me or going to the stand." ”
Kress thought for a moment, "I'll go to the audience first, and if it's early, I'll play two, and if it's late, I'll forget it." ”
"Well, okay, then I'll go in first."
"Okay boss."
Li Mu followed the attendants in the arena to a room specially prepared for challengers, "Your Excellency, you can tidy up your weapons and armor here, we will lead you to the arena in ten minutes, in addition, throwing weapons can be used up to four, and more use is punishable, in addition, bows and crossbows are forbidden weapons." ”
"Okay, I see, you get out." The waiter nodded and went out respectfully.
Li Mu thought about it and felt that it was better to maintain his own outfit, the armor was leather armor and horn helmets, and the weapon was Jinling infantry battle axe plus thunder flying axe. And, of course, the various accessories in your bag. Li Mu thought about it and finally put on Xiao Yi's fox mask, on the one hand, to increase his mystery, and secondly, he might do something big today, or it was better not to let people recognize his true face.
After a while, the waiter came to the lounge again, "Sir, you can come with me." The waiter seemed to be stunned by Li Mu's dress, but he quickly regained his demeanor, and it seemed that there were still many people with masks like Li Mu. Some people just want to pretend, and they feel that wearing a mask is majestic. Others were really in trouble and had to wear masks.
Li Mu was soon taken to the arena, and at this time the arena was already thunderous, and the retired Nord royal guard standing in the middle of the arena ushered in his seventh victory.
The man wore a Germanic helmet, long chain armor, and an allediviless burqa, and held a large round shield in his left hand and a short-handled steel axe in his right. There are also two throwing axes stuck in them. There was also a staff member dragging a corpse outside the venue, judging from the condition of the corpse, it seemed that a lot of axes had been chopped, and the whole person couldn't see the shape, it was basically a pile of mud.
"Hey, that's ruthless." Li Mu smashed his mouth and slowly came to the center of the arena.
At this time, the person in the field had already seen Li Mu who had entered, and when he saw Li Mu's extremely ordinary figure, he first sneered disdainfully, and then saw the exaggerated Jinling step battle axe.
The man was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the ground. "Is it true that the rumors that Nabal was killed, otherwise it is impossible to explain how Nabal's axe could have fallen into the hands of this man." Nabal is a celebrity in the area, and there are very few people who don't know about him. Therefore, his murderous weapons are also well known. Now that it is in the hands of a stranger, it is really necessary to believe this rumor that Nabar was really killed by a mercenary.
"Hey, what do you want to fight or not, if you want to stay alive, admit defeat and leave, otherwise you will stay forever." Li Mu raised the Jinling infantry battle axe with one hand, and pointed the axe at the former Nord royal guard in front of him.
This former royal guard is not an easy character, how can he be frightened by a person's two words, if he really admits defeat as soon as he sees the opponent's weapon, then he will not have to mix in the future. The entire athletic and even mercenary world can't hold their heads up.
"It's too much to deceive people, look at the tricks." As soon as the former Nord royal guard let go of the one-handed tomahawk in his hand, he fell to the ground, but his right hand quickly took out a flying axe from behind him, and threw it at Li Mu without aiming, and then lifted it up with one foot, and the one-handed tomahawk that had not yet fallen to the ground was hooked by the other party and fell steadily into his hand, and the former Nord royal guard held the one-handed tomahawk in his hand and raised the round shield and rushed towards Li Mu.
This combo was the "avant-garde's" famous stunt, and there were countless competitive masters who lost to his combo, and he used it to block many assassins. If it weren't for the fact that he was older, his physical strength couldn't keep up, and he could still continue to hold the profession of royal guard.
At this time, the two of them were only about ten meters apart, and at the speed of the "avant-garde", it only took one or two seconds to rush through this distance, and he believed that even if the person on the other side was powerful, he would suffer a big loss if he was caught off guard. When he charged with a shield, he could already imagine the picture of the other party being knocked into the air by himself.
Bang, with a loud bang, this "former guard" only felt that it was dark in front of him and fell to the ground. He didn't understand how he had fallen until he fell to the ground.
Although he couldn't see it, the surrounding audience saw it very clearly, the moment the "avant-guard" threw the flying axe, they didn't have time to exclaim when they saw Li Mu catch the flying axe thrown by the other party as soon as he raised his hand. Then the "avant-garde" rushed over with a round shield.
According to the audience's understanding, Li Mu should dodge this collision sideways, and then wait for the opportunity to rework. However, Li Mu did not do what they thought, Li Mu pestled the Jinling step battle axe on the ground, and then the whole person jumped into the air like a pole vault, and then turned around in the air and threw the opponent's flying axe back, this flying axe smashed directly into the back of the head of the "avant-garde", if it weren't for the Germanic helmet worn by the "avant-garde" was strong enough, coupled with the lack of strength caused by Li Mu's lack of strength in the air shot, this was enough to split the opponent's head.
However, since he had already won, Li Mu naturally would not do anything to kill everything. Seeing this, the referee hurriedly ran over and kicked the opponent's body, confirming that the opponent had indeed fainted, and then announced Li Mu's victory.
There was a roar of cheers on the field.
