Chapter 41: A Game in the Martial Arts Arena
Magister Sean, who is already in his sixties, is honored to have experienced the glorious era of the mage in his youth, although it is only the end of the catch-up, but even now, recalling the times of that era is still so relishing.
Sean, who is already full of gray beards, no longer has hope for the rise of mages in the era when knights are now in power, and now lives in the magician union in the royal capital, being an honorary elder, studying some magic literature in the early years every day, and planning to spend the rest of his life like this.
Therefore, Sean is not interested in Haider Boy's games, and he does not think that there will be anyone among these children who can make him look at them, even in the royal capital with abundant materials, no child can be qualified to become his disciple.
Being able to become a disciple of Master Sean is also one of the goals of many young mages in the royal capital.
With no interest in Heidel's juniors, Sean raised an eyebrow at Killok, meaning that this is up to you.
Killok shrugged his shoulders, a little helpless, after all, Master Sean was also more than ten years older than him, and this matter had to be handled by him, the "younger generation".
Although he is known as the "younger generation", Killok is also a warrior who is over half a hundred years old and has experienced many vicissitudes.
Usually the warriors who go into battle are at least equipped with light armor, but Killok likes leather armor and does not even use small shields, and the slender sword in his hand can be fast enough to pick down any arrow that flies at him, hence the name "one-handed fast sword".
Killok knew that this was the end of the matter, and he couldn't continue to shirk it.
When Kilok stood out of the VIP stage, the entire martial arts arena erupted in a burst of warm applause, for the teenagers here, Kilok's current glory and status may be the goal that these teenagers have been fighting for all their lives.
Xiu Yin looked at this knight with enough prestige to be among the strongest knights in the Starlight Kingdom and still be a knight chief, which already showed the strength of Killok, but what attracted Xiu's attention the most was the two thick and long beards on Killok's lips.
The Marquis of Fair also had such a thick beard, which is generally a manifestation of his belief in knightly glory, although it is difficult for Xiuin to associate a thick beard with knightly glory, but in this world, the common characteristic of legendary knights who can be called famous in history is to have such a beard on their mouths.
Xiu Yin touched his upper lip, he had a civilization education that was different from this world, and suddenly felt that it was good to be a mage, after all, in his original world, a man with a big beard was not a symbol of status and power.
Killok's right hand stroked his long thick beard, in fact, from the time he stood up to the time he walked here, Killok didn't think about what kind of game he wanted these juniors to play, so he continued to stroke his beard to buy himself a little time to think.
With that, Killok suddenly remembered a game he had played as a child, a very old game, which could be traced back in history to at least the era before the advent of Marfa's soulstone theory, the era of pure glory that belonged only to knights.
"Ahem. "Big shots always like to clear their throats before speaking.
Killok raised his head and said to the young people in the martial arts arena, "Boys of Haider, I believe that to this day, there are still many people who will not give up their dream of becoming a real knight......
Hearing this, Xiu Yin pursed his lips, this is obviously discriminating against the mages of the spiritual power system!
Master Sean, who was sitting on the VIP stage, also frowned when he heard Kilok say this, although it is no longer the glorious era of mages, but in any force, there will be no less powerful mage to suppress the formation.
Mages have some special abilities that most warriors who can only perform traditional attacks cannot possess.
Kirok felt a deep cold gaze from behind, apparently ignoring the existence of people with high status among mages in Heider and even in the Emissary Corps.
Hurriedly pulled the topic into the game he wanted to talk about, "Then, the ancient game of courage, passion, and can make people feel the blood boiling, as if youth is burning!
When Killlock said this, he felt as if he had gone back to his teenage years, when the boys around him were willing to play the game and always be the best of the best.
But when Killok found himself a little moved by this traditional game, both the teenagers in the arena and the people in the VIP stage behind him seemed to be indifferent to him proposing this game.
Unbeknownst to Kirook, in just two months, the teenagers had already played this game, and they had not experienced the passion that Kilok was talking about, let alone the fact that youth could still burn......
The scene was a bit cold, and although Killok's eyebrows were raised, he had to maintain the demeanor of a knight.
"Ahem, then Haider boys, quickly divide into two teams, and then I'll tell you how to play this old and interesting game!"
Killok's mind recalls images of his friends rushing to join him when he was a child, and sometimes it's hard to divide the team.
However, Killok was surprised to find that the teenagers standing in the martial arts arena did not move.
That's right, they didn't move, because there was no need to move, and the team they were standing on now had been automatically divided into two camps according to the "north and south".
The observant Killok immediately saw some doorways, and thought to himself, "Oh, I didn't expect that the teenagers here have their own camps since they were children......
"So let's briefly talk about the rules of this game......"
After Kirok finished speaking, Xiu found that this was no different from the Marquis of Fell two months ago, so after Kirok finished speaking, everyone forgot that there should be applause here.
Fortunately, Lynnkov took the lead in applauding in the post-purchase year, which led to a fairly warm applause.
While the teenagers on both sides began to prepare before the game, Lynkov quietly came to Kilok's side and whispered to him the reason for the coldness, which made Kilok's tightly knit brows gradually relaxed, "I said, such a passionate game, how can the teenagers full of love and blood not be moved!"
In the battle game, the first stage is to set up the formation.
The servants of the castle quickly cleaned up the arena and prepared two huge canvases, red and blue, on the east and west sides.
The west side is blue and the east side is red.
A huge canvas obscured the teenagers on both sides.
Each side chooses twelve people who will directly participate in the game.
Then, on the ground of the martial arts arena, two months ago, the upper, middle and lower three passages were drawn with red lines, and the three passages ran through the east and west sides of the martial arts arena.
Behind the canvas cover, the participants in the game have to stand on these three paths, it doesn't matter how the twelve people stand, any number of people can stand on each path, but the people on each path can not be horizontally, only in a vertical order, that is, there will be no two people walking side by side on the same path.
The twelve people can choose to use any weapon, and only one weapon type can be chosen, which is a combination of a wooden sword and a wooden shield (without a shield), a wooden spear, and a bow, as well as a bow with an arrow cut off, and if a bow is chosen, the number of arrows is up to three.
All of them will be wearing light leather armor that is exclusive to the Rush game.
During the game, 12 people from each side were scattered on three roads.
A person who uses a combination of a wooden sword and a wooden shield can only attack the first opponent in front of them on the same path.
A person who only uses a wooden gun can attack the first and second people in the same path.
A person who only uses a bow and arrow can attack anyone in the same and adjacent paths, which means that the person with the bow and arrow can attack anyone in any upper, middle, and lower path as long as he stands in the middle path.
But if you stand on the top lane, then you can only attack the top lane and the middle lane.
All weapons are coated with dye, as long as they attack the opponent, they will leave traces of dye, if they are directly hit in the vital parts, such as the head and heart, they will be eliminated directly, and the other parts will be eliminated if they are attacked twice.
But because this game is so old, there was no concept of magicians at that time, so it has been slightly improved today, that is, magicians can only use the most basic magic, such as fireball magic, water bombs, small wind blades, etc., and mages cannot carry weapons, and if they are hit by any attack, they will be eliminated directly, whether it is deadly or not.
Then, if you are hit by magic or twice, you will also be eliminated, but the magician can use magic five times and can attack everyone in all paths, which has some advantages over bows and arrows, and it can also be seen that the status of mages is still more important after the introduction of mages in this game.
Therefore, in the battle game, how to arrange the formation is the key, and the combination of various weapons is the key.
The outcome of the game is the end of the path, and the more people who go to the end of the path, the more people who win.
Therefore, if you want to reach the end of the path, you must first deal with the opponent who is standing on the same path as you.
Two months ago, in the rush game, Xiu Yin was unfortunately on the same path as Galio, and the two were the last players still standing on the field, and the number of people who passed through Xiu Yin's team at that time was zero......
Behind the huge blue canvas were the Xiu Causes, all of whom were from the "south".
"What are we going to do this time?"
It seems that everyone's eyes here are focused on Xiu Yin, who made him too brilliant last time, if he hadn't fainted in the end, maybe he could have ended the "South Side" for nearly half a year with zero records.
Since everyone was looking at him expectantly, Xiu Yin touched his chin, of course, there was no beard on it.
Xiu Yin from another world, in fact, after listening to Kilok explain the rules of the game, he had an idea in his mind.
Xiu Yin is different from the people in this other world, he knows the technology that the people here have not seen, and he also knows the things that the people here will not imagine.
Art.
I once had a one-year military career, and the military theory course was a compulsory course.
Now, Xiu Yin knew that the people in the north were generally strong, and the people in the south were generally weak, so a military allusion came to Xiu Yin's mind, "Well, it's the horse race surnamed Tian!"
