Chapter 978: Artoria's Knight Lesson?
The army brought by Eleonora was stationed in Alsace, and the residents who had taken refuge were returning from outside one after another, and they were on the right track.
The aftermath of Alsace did not need the help of the friends of the Duchy of Lettermeliz (they had come to fight), and a day's march was nothing to these energetic lads, but the fact that they saw the enemy from afar and came here without a fight left them with nowhere to release their stress. But it just so happened that Lim was going to go head-to-head with Valhalla, and it was a good show for them.
"Who will win, you say?"
"I'm betting on Lord Lim! Although she is not as good as Eleonora-sama, her strength is not comparable to ordinary people! β
"I don't think so, Lord Wu Jian has defeated Lord Lim, and I am optimistic about that person who is a stronger shooter than him!"
"Less nonsense! It's all false to say anything, hurry up and place your bets! β
Eleonora's army was undoubtedly very disciplined. But no matter how strict an army is, it must have an outlet. Eleonora was a woman, and she couldn't have allowed the army to burn and loot ordinary civilians. Although it is said that you can go to prostitution on weekdays, this alone is not enough. So when she opened a gambling game, she also turned a blind eye. Of course, it's wartime after all, and it's still not okay for her to find out.
"Lord Wu Jian! What a number of times this song is! β
Wu Jian's side, Lurick, who was theoretically responsible for his safety, had his mouth stuffed with food. In his life, he had never eaten such a delicious thing, and his mouth was full of oil.
In fact, with the exception of a few gamblers, the soldiers focused on the food in front of them.
As a Chinese, Wu Jian could not slack off his stomach. Although Aoi was asked to leave by Gaia and the others because of the convenient function of redeeming huΓ n, he also transferred a few special chefs from other worlds. For example, Liu Angxing and Xingping Chuangzhen, this product can make aphrodisiacs no matter what the material, so forget it, and the technology is not as good as that of a real special chef.
All in all, Arthas's condolence food was so delicious that Lurik, the knight, lost his temper and completely forgot that Aryonora was sitting next to Wu Jian.
"Lurick. Doesn't that feel rude? βοΌοΌ
Upon hearing this, Lurick was so frightened that he almost choked, and after swallowing the food in his mouth with all his strength, he hurriedly confessed and retreated.
"How?" Wu Jian asked while feeding the two big foxes in his arms with barbecue.
"I'm really surprised, there is such delicious food here, if I can't eat it in the future, I even want to move the palace here!" Eleonora did not shy away from her praise.
But
"It's almost started, isn't it?"
Eleonora put down her fork and said excitedly. For her, what she was most looking forward to was the duel between Lim and Valhallaβto speak. Her plate was all gone.
"Hey, why don't you let them digest it?"
"No, don't worry about it. Tageler Will Muddy, I'm ready to fight. β
Lim immediately stood up, although it is very unfriendly to the stomach to fight just after eating, but it is bad to not have this kind of stunt on the battlefield, what if someone else attacks while you are eating?
But what about the other party?
Eleonora looked hopefully at Valhalla. The latter had already finished eating, and it was impossible for this kind of Cheng dΓΉ to affect him. So he also stood up.
"I don't have a problem."
"Good!" Aryonora nodded, then glanced at Wu Jian. After seeing him nod, he gave the order: "Then let's start!" β
So, the Heroic Soul stood on the test ground early, and Lim was still wearing a fully armed armor on the opposite side.
"Is there any mistake, don't you usually dress coolly?"
Seeing this, Wu Jian complained.
"Huh"
Hearing his words, Eleonora laughed, "Ordinary battles are indeed won like that. But this time you're going to have to face an archer who's even better than you, so how can you do it without being fully armed? β
"It's all the same, in front of Red A, that armor is the same as not." Wu Jian said impatiently.
"Oh? It seems that you have a lot of confidence in Emiya, but I also have confidence in Lim. Although it was shot down by you with an arrow before. But if you're prepared, you don't have to. Eleonora smiled defiantly.
Wu Jian shrugged his shoulders and did not speak.
At this time, Lim was also ready, mounted on the same heavily armed warhorse, and stood a hundred meters away from Valhalla.
"Is that enough? Perhaps, it's better to stand farther away. Valhalla said indifferently, anyway, with Lim's strength, no matter how far he was, he couldn't change his fate.
"No, a little farther away might give you more reaction time, but you'll be targeted. But you have to be careful, this distance will rush in front of you in an instant. Lim said calmly, the words of the Valhalla Palace were regarded by her as a ploy.
Valhalla doesn't care, he also intends to fight quickly.
"Two, this is just a competition, so be careful to show mercy to your men. So, let's go! β
Eleonora gave the simple order to start the competition, and Lim immediately rushed over. In the face of archers who are stronger than Wu Jian, she must rush to the front of the Heroic Spirit Guard Palace as quickly as possible.
On the galloping horse, Lim held the reins in one hand and the sword in the other, and her eyes were unaffected by the bumps in her helmet, staring at Valhalla's hands, and if the opponent shot an arrow, she would use her sword to knock it off - even if she had armor, she would not take it lightly.
In Lim's sight, the Valhalla Palace unhurriedly mounted the bow, and was secretly surprised. That bow, in her eyes, required a very strong arm to pull it away, but Valhalla Palace easily pulled a full bow.
(Even if this arrow can be blocked, it will not be uncomfortable, so be careful)
Lim leaned down and grasped the reins, and whether the arrow was hit or blocked, he was in danger of falling off his horse.
The small gesture didn't affect Lim's vision, and she saw the bow of Valhalla change.
He cummed!
In that moment, Lim's pupils widened. She couldn't see the trajectory of the arrows? How fast is that!
Shout!
Heard it!
And I saw it too!
Although he couldn't adapt to that speed at first, with his instincts on the battlefield, Lim saw the arrow at the last minute and blocked it in time.
Bite! Boom!
"Hiss~~~~"
Lim fell, and the horse, aware of the lack of people on his back, raised his front hooves high and stopped.
Yes!?
See Lim fall off the horse. Eleonora and her soldiers exclaimed. If you fall from an arrow in a galloping war horse, no matter how merciful the other party is, you have to worry about whether you will be injured.
At this moment, a figure flashed, and Wu Jian appeared behind Lim and caught her. And for some reason, the armor on her body fell off, and the power of that arrow was so strong?
"Lim, are you alright?" Hugging Limu's slender waist, Wu Jian asked with concern, but he leaned too close. The breath tickled her ears.
"Y-What are you doing!?"
After pushing hard, Lim found that she couldn't use her strength. In order to block the arrow just now, her right hand was still trembling slightly.
"It's still fighting!"
"Now you're just a target, and you've lost the game when you fall off the horse. And even if you rush in front of him, you won't be able to beat him. β
Lim looked confused, she admitted the first sentence, but she didn't accept the second sentence. But now that she's lost, keep dwelling. It's just a shame for her and Eleonora.
"Well, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. Don't put on a stinky face. Isn't it a waste to have such a cute face? Here, here you go. β
Wu Jian flipped his hand, and a bear puppet appeared in his hand.
Lim looked at the Muppet quietly, feeling that this trick-like situation was no longer strange. And why is it a bear puppet every time? Isn't it true that your preferences have been revealed? But when, where, and how was it exposed?
For a moment, Lim was distraught, but reluctant to give up the cute Muppet Bear - the previous excuse was not available here. Just grab it and run away.
Wu Jian didn't care, and looked at her back with a smile.
On the other side, when Wu Jian appeared, the eyelids of the Heroic Guard Palace kept jumping, and in the end, when Wu Jian gave Lim the puppet, he wanted to shoot Wu Jian's head with an arrow.
(Can I at him if I was used as a tool for pickling girls?) οΌ
The Valhalla looked inquiringly at the Heroic Soul colleague.
(If you can beat him.) οΌ
was replied with a look. Frustrated, Valhalla realized that there was nothing he could do at all.
So, this competition ended.
"Young Master"
In front of the bedroom, Tita looked at Wu Jian excitedly. Although he had been back for a long time, it was only at this time that she had the opportunity to show her feelings.
Burst!
Tita hugged Wu Jian and buried her head in his arms.
"Master, I'm so scared, every day I'm scared, I'm afraid that you'll never come back~~~"
"Fool, didn't I say before I left that I would come back after a while, so you don't have to worry?"
Tita didn't answer, just shook her head and rubbed a few times in Wu Jian's arms.
"I've heard that you're so scared, and you're still staying with those people, it's so brave." Wu Jian touched Dita's head and said.
"Because I want to protect the important things of the young master with my own hands"
Tita looked at the black bow in the middle of the dormitory, because it was originally a thing of this world, Wu Jian was not in a hurry to receive it in Valhalla, so he hung it in the room of his bedroom.
"Not that important stuff, just put there for a bit of decoration of the room. Moreover, nothing is more important than people. Tita, if you can't promise to protect yourself in case of danger, then I don't want you to be a maid. β
"Young Master, I don't want to leave Young Master."
Watery eyes looked at Wu Jian, Tita knew that Wu Jian was caring about her, and her heart was warm.
"While it's the right thing for you to do by staying with those guys, it's not advisable for you to think like that, and you should pay attention to it later. You know? β
"Hmm, young master?"
After warming for a while, Tita already wanted to leave (not to disturb Wu Jian's rest), but found that Wu Jian was still holding her tightly.
Looking up, Wu Jianzheng looked at her with a lewd smile.
"It's my fault to worry you, so let me make it up to you"
"Young, young master!? No, no, I'm just a maid."
"Since it's a maid. Since the young master asks for a bed, then he has to be obedient! β
"Huh!?"
Wu Jian picked up Tita by the waist and walked into the room without resistance
Because they were guests, Eleonora and Lim were placed inside the mansion. Although it was impossible for the army to come in together, some of the guards were stationed outside the mansion - no way, the city really had no garrison at all (on the surface), and now it was fighting against powerful forces in another country, and had to guard against assassins and the like.
In the courtyard of the mansion, because this is the easiest place to sneak into. So there was a team of soldiers guarding the outside of the mansion. Because it is only separated by half-human-high flowers and plants, let alone sneaking in, it is simply unobstructed.
Artoria and the others have always liked to get up in the morning to train, and although this time she will be watched, she doesn't care about training against Valhalla.
At first, it was impossible for their spirits to move in Valhalla, and they could only sleep quietly in it like statues. But as Gaia and Alaya grew in strength, their bodies even left Valhalla to carry out activities. But when there is no task. Most Heroes don't like to go out and run around either, and their daily routine becomes a constant practice of honing their skills. Even if you get here.
"Oh, you're training here!"
Eleonora saw it and walked over, and Lim followed her.
However, at this time, Artoria and Valhalla only took out their own weapons, and when they saw this, they also put them away - Valhalla only needed to hide the cadre Mo Xie behind his back, and Artoria's holy sword was also covered by the Wind King Enchantment, which did not attract the attention of others at all.
"I didn't think you could be able to fight in close combat."
Lim looked at Valhalla. Wu Jian, that guy, always refuses to let him demonstrate his melee ability on weekdays, and can only speculate that he has no melee ability at all.
Valhalla smiled and didn't say anything. He can only fight in close combat, others use him as an archer only because of the impact of his last participation in the Holy Grail War. He is not weaker than any heroic spirit in melee ability, okay, he must admit, what Lu Bu, Guan Yu, lucky EX, those Chinese heroic spirits in close combat, no one can beat the right. Even if they weren't that strong, but with so many people's beliefs and impressions of Chinese martial arts, their martial arts are surprisingly terrifying.
While Valhalla was distracted, Aryonora and Artoria met eye contact. The former, in particular, feel that this is a treasure that has never been excavated. The lady in front of her knew at a glance that she was a knight, whether it was her aura or her standing posture, it showed that she was a powerful knight.
"There will be some time before the meal starts in the morning, so I'll come to practice for a while, do you want to be my sparring partner?"
Eleonora stood across from Artoria, and when she heard her words, the latter smiled a long-awaited smile, "Show me what you're capable of." β
Just like the master said to the apprentice, but Eleonora didn't care, but she found that there were no ordinary weapons here, so she patted the dragon tool on her waist - Elifar.
"That's all I have, you look like Lim doesn't have a weapon!"
"Yes."
Since Valhalla didn't have a sword, Rim handed her sword to Artoria.
Artoria took the sword and observed, "Good sword." β
Then, she put on a stance.
Seeing that the other party was so crisp, Eleonora also slowly pulled out Elifal: "Then, you're welcome!" β
As soon as the words fell, Eleonora rushed over with a kick under her feet.
Coming to Artoria, who was unflawed, Eleonora laughed excitedly, and swept over with a sword, she wanted to test the opponent's reflexes and strength.
Artoria's face was flat, and when Elifar came to her, she swung her sword sharply.
Poop!
What the!?
A tremendous force came, and Eleonora's sword almost came out of her hand. But she was not a rookie either, so she hurriedly stabilized her body and blocked the blow with all her strength. However, she still can't match the power of the Heroic Spirit.
Realizing this, she jumped up and jumped back with the help of Artoria's power.
"Don't want to run!"
With a loud shout, Artoria catapulted after her.
"Mistress Eleonora!?"
Unexpectedly, Eleonora would fall into the disadvantage when she was in the first place, and Lim exclaimed loudly.
At the adjutant's reminder, Eleonora let out a joyful voice and spun on her toes on the ground.
Poop!
Artoria, who was in the air, was bounced out, and the two sides were temporarily tied. But they didn't stop, you fought back and forth.
However, after a while, Artoria withdrew from the battlefield, but it didn't look like she was regrouping or admitting defeat.
Eleonora looked at her suspiciously.
"You, why don't you use the power of that sword?"
Facing Artoria's questioning, Aryonora smiled with relief and explained, "This is the rule I have set for myself, and I will never use the power of dragon equipment on ordinary people. β
"You're a true knight." Artoria was in awe.
Eleonora gladly accepted it, for it was true.
"Butβ"
βοΌβ
"This sword is also your own power, isn't it?"
ββ
"When you're fighting your opponent, isn't it really contemptuous of your opponent if you don't give it your all?"
"I" (To be continued......)
