Chapter 198: Promotion
Although Aphroya's talent is high, she has only practiced the terrifying secret technique for three years, and she is naturally far behind compared to Myer, and soon she fell behind, suppressed by Myer's powerful control secret art, and was forced to the edge of the ring step by step. And Meier, who stood in the middle of the ring, still looked at ease.
"Big Brother Meyer seems to be very relaxed!"
"Yes, the opponent of the orc girl seems to be a warrior who is mainly a protective horror knight, and it may be very helpful if she is on the battlefield with real swords and guns, but she can't play to her advantage in competitive competition. In contrast to her, Big Meyer specializes in control-based horror arcane arts, making her perfect fit for this type of opponent to win on the pitch. ”
Markminus's falcon-like eyes saw the situation very accurately, and sure enough, after a while, the cat-eared girl gradually lost her strength in the confrontation with Meier, and was finally pushed out of the ring.
"That's the difference in strength, my little kitty. ”
"Woo woo, I'm really unwilling!"
The referee immediately came to the center of the ring to announce the result.
"It's over!
"Pretend you don't know me and go straight to the audience!"
The cat girl grimaced at Meyer and turned to walk into the audience. By this time, Yulia and Don Loni had already joined Teresa and the others to watch the game together.
During a brief break after Salian's easy finish, he took the opportunity to take a look at the rest of the race. Because they are all competitions of masters from all over the world, there are many competitions that are very fierce.
"Yo, it's Miss Jia Luonai, does she want to win the championship as the host, so as to save the bounty of 100,000 gold coins? ”
Meier's eyes turned away from the dominant Garonay and looked at the other races.
"Hehe, there are a lot of strong players in the lower half, and it's not so easy for her to advance. There's a weird master here. ”
Because at this moment, Meier saw an ancient knight in the lower half of the district, who fought with a three-hucked stick and wore an old-fashioned lock plate mixed armor, and he used a strange trick to play with a noble knight in ornate armor and armed with a long sword. Moreover, the nunchucks, an extremely rare weapon on the Western continent, were not even heard of, which naturally aroused Meier's interest, and he quietly used magic to teleport Teresa.
"Help me see who this man with the three-chucked stick is!"
"Yes, okay. Wait a minute, let me see the viewing guide, the third venue in the second half...... This person may be a knight von Loklein, it is said that he came from the western part of the empire, his origin and background are unknown, only the age of thirty and his surname, and even his first name is not recorded, how can this be?"
"Oh, is he a surprise soldier set up by the old duke, and he doesn't want us to get the bonus?"
"Do you want us to inquire?"
"No need, let him go, no matter how difficult it is, I will win! What's more, the stronger the opponent, the happier I am. ”
At the time when the two of them were whispering, the victory was decided, and the down-and-out knight forced his opponent down with a short spear at one end of the three-section stick. It doesn't seem like it took much effort at all. The man may have felt Myer's sharp gaze as he stepped back from the ring, and he turned his head and smiled at the mercenary in the distance, who also gracefully bowed his head slightly.
"Huhu, this person's strength is really extraordinary, and he can actually sense my breath. Well, most of the masters in the first round must have retained their strength, and now I don't know how many people like him are still there? ”
As he thought, he walked back to his half.
"How many strong enemies are there in my district? Ah! This is not Jolonis von Larsenberg. Hehe, Mayer's strongest disciple of the Sword Saint is also here. I don't know if there are other masters of the Imperial Sword God Stream. ”
Meyer discovered the top disciples of the Solingen Warrior Brotherhood, and it was normal to think about it, and they naturally would not let go of the good things of fame and fortune as a large profit-making chain enterprise.
"Well, the sword and armor he uses are very good, and his skills are fine, except for his lack of experience, he is indeed a strong enemy. ”
Soon the first round of the competition was over, and the remaining 64 players continued to fight according to the game chart.
Myer's opponent is a strong giant man who is more than 2.1 meters tall and has explosive muscles, and if it weren't for the competition restrictions, he would have believed that he was a half-giant. has a young face, but looks very mature and stable.
According to the information that Teresa saw, this person is called Willy Sherfir, from the central forest area of the empire, belonging to the adventurer association there, since he was a child, his physical condition is different from ordinary people, he was discovered by the old president of the forest district, and then he was given a variety of advanced martial arts, and he is not only talented but also smart and hardworking, since his debut at the age of fifteen, he has subdued the dragon and subdued the tiger, and has made many contributions to the adventurer association of the forest area, since then it has been ten years, and he has never failed in the mission or in the competition. Earlier this year, when the old president of the forest district retired, he passed the title of branch president to the twenty-five-year-old. And Willie is also widely considered by insiders of the Adventurers' Guild to be one of the most popular candidates for the future president.
"Oh, listen to this long-looking character introduction, it is completely the strength of a top four player, how did I meet it in the second round. ”
"Salian, the entry guide says that this Willy was already a sword master when he was twenty years old, and his current strength is immeasurable. ”
"Oops, I even think it's the life of the protagonist. Okay, let me meet him!"
After a brief exchange of information, Myer "Karakuri Mercenary" stepped into the ring for the second time. His opponent had been waiting for a long time, and Meier noticed that his muscular body had only a few simple pieces of metal armor, but at first glance it was not extraordinary.
In addition, Willy's weapon is a heavy long sword, although it is not a complex and delicate weapon, but it cannot be used at all without extremely strong strength, so it is generally used by half-giants or orcs of some huge races, and it is rarely seen in the empire. This weapon is said to be a type of long axe, but in fact, it is a meniscus shaped guillotine with a length of 1.5 meters and is mounted on the handle of the axe 2.5 meters long, and it is easy to make, as long as it is attached to the handle in the middle and end of its long blade to increase the firmness.
The referee returned to the pitch and after the rules were reviewed, the game began.
"I'm also a mercenary, so let's have a good fight!" said Meyer, posing.
"Hehe, I hope so, there are too few real opponents I can meet!" replied Willy proudly.
"Haha, I'll do my best!"
Meyer certainly won't let him down. After filling the "Dark Dragon Flame" with raging flames, he immediately swung a sword qi at his opponent, which was different from the original ordinary containment skill, this sword qi contained the power of scorching Yang Yan, since he had this new beam weapon in his hand, Meier didn't have to use one free hand to launch the Yang Flame Divine Technique, he called the new move "Sword Wind Flash Flame", which is really a figurative name.
Willy was experienced, and he quickly slashed the long axe sideways and blocked the blow with a wide axe.
"Yo, the weapon is good, it can block my latest trick!"
"Hmph, coward, he only uses some ranged attacks, but unfortunately it's useless to me. ”
Willy took a step as he spoke, and he was in front of Meyer, a speed that even an assassin or a thief could have. Then he used a whirlwind slash to attack Myer, and as usual, ordinary opponents were either cut into pieces by countless axe blades with sword qi or ran in all directions to dodge, but the "Karakuri Mercenary" actually did not take a step back, but hit the blade wall with a "furious strike".
The weapons of the two violently touched each other, and the scattered sword qi instantly cracked the bluestone slabs around both sides. The referee also had to run out of the ring to dodge.
"Hahaha, it's really good, I actually saw through my whirlwind slash. The two did not forget to communicate in the rapid attack and defense.
"I have been going south and north for many years, and this can still be seen. ”
"I'm sorry, I'm underestimating you, and I'm going to use my real skills next, be careful!"
"Just as I wished. ”
The fierce battle between the two naturally caught the attention of the audience again.
"Wow! what a good fight, I know those two, I saw Mercenary Myer fighting a Castia sword fighter on the scene more than three years ago, and that's how strong he is. ”
I've watched Willy fight a few times, and he's always been easy to beat with that big axe. ”
"Oops, I bought Willy with all my belongings, don't let me down!"
"Meyer, Meyer, come on, win!"
Many of the audience members are professional spectators, and some are also professional bookmakers. Because the odds were low for both men to win the tournament, their encounters would have changed the odds for many of the duo and many others involved in the post-war period.
"Lola, Brother Meier has met a master this time, and it is very bad for him to consume it like this in the second round. ”
"What is the origin of the other party? ”
The old duke, who was sitting next to them, said.
"Hehe, Miss Lola, this person is the number one adventurer in the central forest area of my Divine Grace Empire, and his current martial arts record is thirty wins and zero losses. ”
"Your Excellency, there are really a lot of things that can be improved in this competition process now, how can two people who are so strong meet in the second round? This greatly destroys the spectacle, and it is not fair, I can't imagine a mediocre person who has passed three or four levels in a row, but let another master be eliminated in the second round. ”
"Well, Your Highness is right. We can change the format in the future and have a round-robin or a double-elimination tournament. ”
"I think it's fairest to have a rating system, everyone's state will have ups and downs, and it's not good to have a celebrity as a seeded player every time, but as long as you set a corresponding score for each competition according to the degree of importance, the players who participate in the competition will get points according to their results, and the more competitions you participate in, the lower the natural deviation value, the more it reflects the true strength of the person. It is certainly reasonable to arrange the order of the competition by comparison. ”
The old duke couldn't help but nod his head again and again when he heard this.
"His Royal Highness is really resourceful, and the old minister is ashamed of himself. ”
"Hehe, old duke, please don't say that. I'm just making a suggestion. ”
