Chapter Twenty-Five: The First Voice
The teams participating in the competition left the contestant area one after another. The rotunda suddenly looked empty.
Roy found that the players of Team C and Team D turned a blind eye to the people of the other teams and had an indifferent attitude when they left, and when they passed by Team E, they invariably bowed their heads. Obviously, they were equally angry and unhappy with the format of the tournament.
These two brigades have been the most low-key brigades in the academy for many years. They are not as declining as the E-Brigade, and they will not take the initiative to provoke anything. In addition, in the selection on the admission day, some talented students leaked into their hands, so their lives were quite passable.
And this time, Diarra and Farley's actions against Team E, in fact, have swept the two teams together.
The results of their first round against the S team and the A team are already in no suspense. And after falling victim to these two teams, they can only compete for the next place in the second round. Such a format fundamentally kills all possibilities for them to break into the top three.
This is unacceptable for these two brigades.
You know, in previous years' Team Challenge, they still had some chances. Relying on luck, he has also broken into the top three and obtained quite rich resources.
For this reason, the cadets and instructors of the two brigades have protested to the referee team, but their protests have been mercilessly refuted.
In such a situation, they and the most unfair E team naturally stand on the same front and share the same hatred!
"In the first round, even if we lose, we will definitely not let them have a good time!"
"Guys from Team E, come on. Give them something awesome and see!"
These are the players of the two teams. Words left in the ears of everyone in Team E. There were several of them, all of whom patted Roy on the shoulder heavily, and turned to walk out of the contestants' area with a fierce face. Roy has no doubt that after a while on the field, these guys are going to fight their opponents!
And unexpectedly, in addition to the C Brigade and the D Brigade. There were also a few people from the A and S teams who actually came over to greet Roy.
The S team came over with Roy's southern trio who had a nod on the entrance day - Heiming, Tina and Andre.
These three geniuses from the south, all of whom are orange talents, and their status in the S team is not inferior to Morey. However, the three of them have always been unsociable. Never talk to people except for training. Therefore, even if they formed a combat squad with others, the three of them seemed a bit withdrawn and self-contained.
"I don't like Morey, I like you," Tina said to Roy, eyes almost diamond-shaped. Shining like a star, "But." When we get on the field, we don't show mercy. To defeat us, you'll have to show all your strength. ”
After saying that, the girl who was as cold as an iceberg reached out and patted Roy's face, turned around and walked out.
throughout the process. Hei Ming and Andre stood beside her, silent. Only nodded at Roy at the end, and turned to leave.
Roy doesn't remember the last time he was slapped in the face.
At least he hadn't been slapped in the face like that since he left Bollabelle. This kind of intimate action only exists between relatives and friends who are very familiar. And no matter what he thinks, he doesn't know what the relationship between himself and Tina is. He hadn't even spoken to her other than knowing her name.
"Do you know Tina?" was the first thing twin sisters Ling Shuang and Ling Xue said when they stood in front of him.
Although their faces looked exactly the same and their words were exactly the same, the two sisters had completely different expressions and tones. Sister Ling Xue was curious and her tone was lively. And her sister Ling Shuang frowned. Looking into Roy's gaze, it was like seeing a big playboy pervert.
The two sisters were one of the few friends Roy had known since before he joined the Academy, having fought side by side in caravanserans, so they became very familiar with each other.
Since entering the school, the sisters have become celebrities on the school flower list of the first training camp. They are already charming, and they are the same and Tilian sister flowers, which attract a lot of wild bees and butterflies. In terms of attractiveness, it is even more deadly than the girls ranked above them.
As long as they are willing, they can choose to marry into a wealthy family.
However, to the dismay of many suitors, neither Ling Shuang nor Ling Xue reacted to their romantic offensive. If she is in a hurry, her sister Ling Shuang will even turn her face and make a move.
The two sisters are beautiful and have good talents, and they are the hearts and souls of the A brigade, and there is no good fruit to eat if they are provoked. This leaves everyone at a loss. Even those love saints who have always been handful to other girls have also hit the wall several times in front of Ling Shuang and Ling Xue, and they are dizzy.
It is precisely because of this troubles that on weekdays, it is rare for everyone to see Ling Shuang Ling Xue take the initiative to talk to a boy, let alone two people together.
Faced with the two sisters' questions, Roy scratched his face and did not answer.
Ling Xue is okay, every time Ling Shuang and him meet, their noses are not noses and their eyes are not eyes. Even when she invited him to dinner on the death order of her mother, it was a hard sentence: "My mother told you to go to my house for dinner, but you can't go." ”
Because Roy had saved their father's life, their mother had mentioned that Roy had to be a guest at home when she was on the caravan. Later, in the academy, I also met him a few times, and every time I pulled him and didn't let go. For this enthusiastic aunt, Roy still feels quite close.
However, Ling Shuang's vicious eyes, where was the invitation, completely forced Roy to say "not going". And every time she got the answer she wanted, she looked even angrier, blushing, glaring at him viciously and turning her head away, often confusing Roy.
"We're going to fight for Team A this time," Ling Xue said with a smile, "Roy, you have to be careful." ”
"I'm not going to show mercy. Roy raised an eyebrow.
Among the girls Roy knows, Ling Xue's character is his favorite, gentle and lively, and there is no pressure to talk to her at all. Except that sometimes Ling Xue's liveliness can give people an innocent side, Roy feels that among the twins, Ling Xue is more like a good-natured sister.
Really. As soon as they heard his words, the two sisters reacted very differently.
Ling Shuang glanced at him coldly, "Who wants you to let me." With that, he turned and left.
Ling Xue smiled and didn't move until Ling Xue had already walked away, and she whispered to Roy. "My sister is a natural stay, and when I heard Tina just now, I didn't know if I was jealous. She likes you. ”
After speaking, he waved at Roy and chased after Ling Shuang with a smile.
In the strange eyes of Griffin, Giles and others beside him, Roy's mind was a little dazed for a while. I was stunned when I was slapped in the face by Tina just now, and I am even more confused now.
What day is it today?
How ripe and unfamiliar, everyone is teasing me!
............
............
The round arena was already crowded with people, and the roaring sound echoed over the stands.
This arena is part of the Central Campus complex. It is also one of the oldest buildings in the academy and was in existence long before the academy was founded.
It was originally a gladiatorial arena, and all the qiē were built according to the standard gladiatorial arena. The whole building is in the shape of a bowl, surrounded by huge stone stands, the top circle is a VIP box, and at the edge of the central circular gladiatorial area is a dungeon and a room where the beasts are imprisoned.
After the establishment of the Academy. The gladiatorial arena was transformed into an arena. The large structure has not changed, except for the removal of the VIP boxes. It was changed to an open stand, and then the dungeon and beast house were cleared for sundries, and the trading area of the gladiatorial arena was changed to the current player area.
Since the establishment of the Academy, the annual Brigade Challenge. It's all held in this arena, and I don't know how many times it's been held. But in the impression of the supporters and veterans sitting in the VIP seats, no matter which session of the situation background, it is not as complex as today's session, nor is it as lively as this session.
As everyone knows. The situation on the southern front is already becoming more and more dire. Grand Duke Adolf is under siege and uncertain about his life, and the Knights of the Red Leaf and the Twelfth Legion are facing the onslaught of the Filies, and the pressure is increasing. At the same time, Duke Benson, who was in the northwest, was also said to have approached the coalition of nobles in the southwest.
In such a situation, the three major training camp branches, as the knight academy where the local elite children of Lulian gather, naturally have an unshirkable responsibility. All of these cadets present here will be converted from reserve to regular military after today. And in the next lesson, they will learn in blood and fire.
A horn sounded, and the game began.
In the middle of the field, a bachelor of affairs was announcing the lineup table and the rules of the game, and in the VIP seats, the supporters and veterans were talking about each other.
"Farley taught," a supporter elder looked at Farley, "this time the competition has been changed to a battle formation competition, can the S team win the first place?"
"Of course. Before Farley, who was accompanying him, could answer, another middle-aged nobleman who was familiar with him smiled and said, "Farley has taught S to be in charge of the S Brigade for so many years, which year has he lost the first place." This year will be no exception. ”
"But," said someone next to us, "we've heard that this year's E-Brigade is a dark horse." Not only was there a great teaching from Kameni from the main camp, but the kid named Roy was also very strong, and he defeated ...... alone at the last ball of Archduke Adolf."
Before the man finished speaking, he was pulled and his voice stopped abruptly.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while. Everyone knows that this is not the right time to bring it up.
Ever since Roy entered the school, the first camp hasn't stopped. First, Quincy and others were forced to drop out of school, and then Xia Li and Scarlett and others left one after another. Of these people, four or five were Farley's S Brigade cadets. It's not too much to describe Roy as a S Brigade nemesis.
Moreover, because he almost drove Roy away at the beginning, Farley was directly given a mediocre and incompetent comment by the Grand Supervisor Boer from the Imperial Capital Camp that he was not suitable for running the S Brigade. Now, Grand Inspector Boer is sitting not far away, and mentioning this matter again doesn't make mana ugly?
Seeing Farley's gloomy face, the supporters and elders exchanged glances. Anyone in Farley's position is afraid that Roy will be hated to the bone, not to mention that Farley has always been narrow-minded and will be revenged. From today's match-up table, everyone knows what Farley is going to do.
This year's freshmen are the most talented in recent years at the Muni City branch of the first training camp. One purple talent, four orange talents, can be described as star-studded. With such an almost extravagant line-up against the E-Brigade, known as a waste camp, no one knows whether Fali is well-intentioned or despicable.
However, despite Farley's bad intentions and some unfairness to Team E, everyone didn't think it was a problem.
This is an unfair world. Since everyone's birth, their identities have been divided into high and low, it is normal to be unfair, and it is strange to be fair.
Society is so. The same is true in the academy.
Farley's S Brigade gathered the best young men in the academy. Whether it's Diarra, the maker of elite policy, or Farley, who is the instructor of the S Brigade, it is inherently incumbent on them to fight for resources, even if their purpose is to take revenge, even if the means are a little more despicable. That's nothing.
It's a struggle. It was the long-dormant Diarra family, launching a counterattack.
Everyone was a little excited when they thought of the upcoming competition and the names of their talents.
However, there is one thought that is spinning in everyone's hearts...... Can the S team led by Morey really defeat the E team led by Roy?
The elders turned their heads to look, and not far away was the seat of the upper echelons of the academy.
Gustas sat in the middle of the chair, and next to him was Grand Superintendent Boer and the second. The two directors of the third training camp. Behind them were the teachers, including Kameni and others. And what is surprising is that even many teachings that are usually rare, such as Steve, Hough and Williams, the three great sages, as well as Ivy and Flin, who usually do research in the Medicine Tower, also appeared in the audience.
Whining. Two horns sounded. The Bachelor of Business in the field has finished his pre-match announcement, the game. Coming soon.
...............
...............
The first to enter the battle were the S team and the C team.
When Morey, who was dressed in blue armor, led nine knight students and a slender magic student into the arena, the entire arena was filled with a tsunami of cheers.
Morey, a brave star. Black Ming. Armed with five stars. Andrey, armed with four stars. Tina, armed with four stars. Pei Zhan, armed with four stars.
These five people accounted for half of the top ten freshmen ranking. Moreover, in the ranking list of all students, including the four grades, they are in the top 500.
In addition, the other five students who all have the strength of armed stars form this team, not to mention in the first year, even in the second year, it can be regarded as one of the best. It's so strong that it's hard to say.
Not only that, but in terms of equipment, the S Brigade also far surpasses other brigades.
Although in this kind of competition, the equipment is required to be controlled within one star, and it is not allowed to use more than two stars, but Farley, who has a lot of money, still specially customized a set of one-star top-level equipment for him. Whether it is the weapon in his hand or the armor on his body, it is all made by the "Hammer of the God of War" in the north of the city.
Compared to them, the opposite team C, although neatly equipped, is much inferior. In addition, the C Brigade is the strongest, and there is only one armed three-star, and the winner of this battle has been divided almost before the war.
In fact, the whole battle was as everyone expected. There are few ups and downs.
When the horn of the match blew, Team C attacked first. Ten knight cadets, with a fairly beautiful trident formation, shot at the battle formation of the S team, trying to cut the S team into three sections and concentrate on annihilating the middle part first, so as to form a local advantage.
Just when the two arrows in front of him were about to stab like the S Brigade formation, I saw Morey take a few steps silently, and as soon as he moved, the team moved.
On the left and right wings, two members of each drew their swords to meet them, resisting the arrows that came straight into Team C, while the five people led by Hei Ming in the center stabbed into the center of Team C's battle formation like a sharp sword.
The battle between the two sides, at this moment, quickly entered the white heat.
In team combat, the initial key to confrontation is to pay attention to the word 'sharp'. Whether it is cutting or attacking, it must be as sharp as a blade, strive to cut through the opponent's battle formation at the first time, and complete a partial annihilation with the sharpest attack.
If you can select from your respective teams to participate in the competition, no one is weak. This trident formation of Team C, whether in terms of coordination, speed or attack power of the players, is absolutely wonderful. Under the careful construction of the teaching of the C brigade, they have already possessed the combat level of the elite squad in the army
However, they are stronger, and the S team is stronger.
Almost at the moment when Team C pounced. Team S has already made the most timely and correct response. The battle formation called "Knife in the Sleeve" that they changed in an instant was the most-for-tat with the Trident battle formation.
Different battle formations have different strengths and weaknesses. The advantages of each battle formation are restrained by the battle formations with corresponding flaws, and its flaws are restrained by the battle formations with corresponding advantages.
The Blade Formation is a variant of the Trident Formation. Seriously speaking, it is not the absolute nemesis of the Trident battle array, but it can just suppress the opponent's advantage. However, if you add Morey and the others on the basis of this battle formation, the strength of the other party is far higher. Brigade C suffered.
Only to hear a bang, the two sides collided head-on like two herds of bison.
Facing the arrows on the opponent's two wings, the four members of the left and right sides of the S team raised the battle ring to the extreme, held the portal steadily, and their feet were like taking root, and they stubbornly withstood the attack of the opponent's six people.
For a while, I saw the members of the C team who were charging in a whirling circle, and the sword light was like rain. But the members of the S Brigade in front of them relied on their strength one or two stars higher and the most thorough defensive strategy. Like four solid reefs, smash their tidal onslaught!
This scene only saw the audience cheering.
At the same time, Hei Ming, who was advancing in the middle, took the lead in crashing into the opponent's midfield.
The long sword in his hand flashed, and in an instant, he had already changed his move with the three opponents in front of him. And while setting up the attack, he was like electricity. The family heirloom seven-line dueling spirit, combined with a standard academy fighting boxing method. Slam a fist into an opponent's shield.
Everywhere the battle ring passed, only a bang and a muffled snort were heard, and the shield burst instantly, and the blood and qi on the faces of the students of the C Brigade surged, and they took two steps back!
"Beautiful!" several supporters couldn't help but stand up and cheer in unison.
Kuroaki, who has the talent of orange. It has always been the object of everyone's attention. On the entrance day more than a month ago, Hei Ming was only armed with four-star strength, but in just one month, he had been promoted to armed five-star. Not only did the seven-line duel spirit become more and more refined and profound, but the martial arts were obviously carefully taught by the academy.
Judging by his trick alone. Whether it is the combination of fighting spirit and moves, the mastery of timing or the use of battle rings, it can be called perfect!
And more importantly, Hei Ming has already torn a hole in the opponent's formation this time! And Andre and Tina who have been following behind him, just like Hei Ming's shadow, flashed out and blossomed inside in the central formation of Team C!
Andrei's fighting style is as fierce as his people, and a large steel shield in his hand, which is far three times heavier than an ordinary shield, combined with his rhinoceros-like impact, directly knocks the opponent on his back. The majestic power only saw the students in the stands warping their tongues.
Not to mention the freshmen of the first year, even many second- and third-year students who are known for their strength, they think that they can't stand under the impact of Andre. This guy is simply a humanoid monster.
Compared to Andrei, the battle of Tina is more ornamental. She was originally extremely beautiful and had a slender figure. In addition, the fighting style takes a light and elegant route, and between the movements and flashes, it is like the wind swinging willows, which makes people fascinated. Even compared to the elves, it also has three more picturesque artistic conceptions.
But in her hand, she was holding a two-handed heavy sword.
The epee is black throughout, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, and has a slender grip. The sword is about 1.3 meters long, 22 centimeters wide, four centimeters at its thickest point, and weighs 110 pounds. Not to mention that a little girl uses such a sword, even many big men who are known for their strength dare not choose such a sword as a weapon!
A slender girl, a heavy two-handed sword, this contradictory combination, fighting in a strange way.
The sword rises, and the sword falls. The sword floats with the sword before the man. It looks like a sword is dragging a man. Each blow was like nine days of flying down, weird, heavy and sharp.
At the moment of the fight, Tina slashed a total of six swords. After six swords, the opponent's captain broke his sword and shattered his shield, and his calf was driven into the ground like a nail smashed by a hammer. And the magic student who was about to release the magic in the back was even "sealed in the throat" by Tina with a sword, and his face was like dirt and he was ordered out.
And when Morey and the other three members of the S-team entered the battle, the Trident battle formation of the C-team had collapsed.
In one case, five people, including the captain and the magician, were out, and the remaining six were still separated from the left and right, and in this situation, the fate of Team C's defeat was doomed. Not to mention that their strength is already much weaker than that of the S team, even if they are veterans of a hundred battles on the battlefield, they are helpless in the face of such a situation.
What's more, at the moment when the S team broke through in the center, the magic student who had been standing quietly in the back made a move.
This freshman is a beautiful girl with a restrained expression and some timidity. She was about the same age as Tina, maybe a little younger. Wearing a white robe with a waist, he looks like he was born with a weak temperament that makes people pity and pity. When the S team entered, she followed behind, like a small white flower pinned to the armor.
It seems that such a girl should appear more at the ball or in the stands, let the knights and gentlemen carefully hold and care for it, rather than appear in the arena.
Besides, the magic students who can be selected as the S Brigade must be the best. But fans searched their memories and couldn't figure out who this girl was. You know, this year's magic freshmen don't have a genius like Scarlett, but there is no shortage of eye-catching characters, and they can remember every single one.
And just as the game began, everyone's attention was attracted by the collision of the knight students, and they suddenly found that the girl standing behind everyone was delicate, her delicate body was spinning, and her hands were waving one after another.
In an instant, dozens of wind blades appeared from the void beside the girl with a whistling voice, and at different speeds, different angles, and different routes, they whirled and crashed into the C-team formation on both wings.
Everyone was stupid. The entire arena was silent. Under the cutting of these cyan wind blades, which were more terrifying than the sharpest and hardest steel knives, all one heard was their own gasps and a muffled pop in the field. All you can see are shields, swords, armor, and even fragments of the broken battle ring!
The audience only felt that the cold hairs on their backs exploded and their scalps were numb. In the field of vision, the gentle girl has a rebellious and wild smile on the corner of her mouth, like a storm goddess!
With this girl's move, the six students on both wings of Team C were wiped out in an instant.
A sharp word, which was vividly played by the S team. Before the battle was in the middle of the battle, the victory was already decided in the tsunami-like cheers from the audience. The whole process of fighting was only a few minutes, and the C team, which was so fast that they wanted to let go, didn't have time to fight hard!
"Wonderful! It's wonderful!" At the end of the game under the arena, a baron who had been invited to watch the game in the VIP seat had already clapped his hands excitedly and stood up, walked to the side of Diarra and Farley with smug faces, and congratulated, "The strength of this year's S team is better than the previous ones." These young people have been trained too well by you. ”
Other invited guests and supporters also stood up and applauded and congratulated.
These students of the S Brigade are students of Farley, and the white-robed girl, as everyone has heard, is the magical genius Carol who was introduced to the academy by Diarra himself as the guide after the entrance day.
Today's battle, although it is a strong bully of the weak, whether it is the strength of the knight students of the S Brigade or the magic of Carol, they are all too strong to say, so strong that people are excited and excited!
On the surface, it was a battle between cadets. But it's not a collision between Diarra and Gustas!
The battle between students is about natural strength. And the battle of teaching is nothing more than the ability to see.
Whether it is the dean of the second and third training camps, the veterans of the supporters, the invited guests or the instructors with different positions, they all have to admit that this round Diarra took the lead and won cleanly and beautifully!
(To be continued.) )
