Chapter 209: Be careful when swinging the hammer
The Underground Kingdom of Spethagen. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the darkest product of the politics of the Great Prince, even if it is full of blood and violence, countless people still flock here every day - rich overnight, or dead without a body, Spitaneen is a gambler's paradise in a general sense, and everyone who passes you on the street may be the strongest man in the future.
"So, if you want to get stronger, you've come to the right place. ”
Graham stood with his hands in his hands. Upon his return, Captain Edith handed over the newcomer to him and gave him full authority to direct him. A new selection competition is imminent, and what this teenager can learn in one night depends on his understanding.
"I think so too. ”
Lin Qiu picked up a sledgehammer out of nowhere, and under Grahan's gaze, he swung the giant hammer fiercely, and a hurricane risk made the latter's footsteps unsteady, and he staggered a few steps: "Report to the deputy head of the regiment, I have already started practicing!"
As he spoke, he swung the hammer again.
――“rua!”
Under Lin Qiu's demonstration, the short gray-bearded old man behind him imitated his appearance and slowly swung the smaller hammer.
"Hey...... Hey!"
The old man's action of turning the card into a PPT made Graham suspect that he would flash at any moment.
"What are you practicing, and where did you come from, old man?"
Graham was furious, he was so old, and he still learned to dance the hammer of young people!
It took the old man more than ten seconds to complete a complete movement, and he threw the hammer on the ground with great difficulty, and then he was out of breath for a long time before he looked up at Graham who had come to him.
The gray beard trembled, and he shook his head: "No...... No, I don't eat pineapple. ”
Who's going to treat you to pineapple!
"Newcomer, what's going on with this old man?" The old man seemed to have obvious hearing impairment, and Graham could only ask Lin Qiu. The old man wasn't here when he entered.
And Lin Qiu's reaction was even more inexplicable than him, he scratched his head and asked rhetorically, "Isn't this your cleaner here?"
"Its ...... Actually, I came to Ken-sama to ask him for something. ”
The old man's hand trembled and groped in his bosom for a while, and he took out a piece of paper full of wrinkles.
Since there is no such thing as a camera in this world, people have to interpret what a person looks like through portraits. That's why the bishop issued Ramov's painting of "Vic the Great" as a wanted warrant - if you haven't seen yourself, everything depends on the image in the portrait.
Obviously, this criterion raises a lot of questions.
For example, now, the old man pointed to the stickman on the paper and said, "This is a portrait of my grandson, I heard that he is here, and I hope you will help me find him......"
Graham stared at the painting carefully for a moment, and he was keenly aware of what was wrong with the painting.
"Is your grandson's hand broken?" he pointed to the stickman's wavy right hand.
Because of his willingness to help the common people, Ken, that is, Lord Edith's reputation in Spitane, is well-known, and many people come here every day, and Graham is naturally no stranger to this kind of commission. He has seen too many ugly people, and this old man is just a little more concise in his painting style in comparison.
But as long as you know the characteristics of the other person, with their eyeliner, you can quickly find out it.
After all, even in Spittenn, it is rare for an arm to be broken and wavy.
"No...... It was because I sneezed while I was drawing. ”
......
Graham was silent for a long time before he suppressed the urge to drive the old man out. His mission was originally to guide Lin Qiu in the way of training the scoring power, but he never expected that a troublesome old man would suddenly appear at this time.
He asked helplessly, "So, does your grandson have any characteristics?"
"Special ...... Features. ”
The old man with the gray beard looked up at him, "My grandson is a man of great ideals, and he came here to save my seriously ill granddaughter. ”
Graham and Lin Qiu's faces couldn't help but change.
The quickest way to make money in Spitane was to take part in the death-to-death battles in the arena, and perhaps by the time they found the grandson of the old man, he would have ......
"By the way, my grandson seems to have said so before he left......"
The old man with the gray beard imitated, stood on tiptoe, raised his left fist, and made a declaration: "I will definitely become a pizza tycoon!"
Then he flashed his back.
The two of them clearly heard a "pop", and then the old man fell to the ground in pain.
Lin Qiu felt that Grahan's face was extremely ugly, and he felt that his face should not be much better at the moment-before he found his grandson, this old man himself would return to the West!
And what kind of lofty dream is it to become a pizza tycoon?
It's the darkest of underground kingdoms, Spitane, not some wonderful, childlike foodland. If you want to find a pizza tycoon, go to the owner of Empisai to find the right person.
After Grahan's men hurriedly carried the old man to treatment, Lin Qiu broke the silence: "Tomorrow is the audition, right? If the old man's grandson wants to make money, he will probably participate in tomorrow's audition, so I'll try my luck in the arena." ”
Graham was overjoyed: "Oh, you've already decided to participate in the audition?"
He originally wanted to instill in Lin Qiu the meaning of the championship at length, in his opinion, Lin Qiu was definitely a natural champion, and it was a waste of his strength not to participate in the competition.
"But before that, I have one more thing to ask you - that Duck should be a Templar, right?"
Graham nodded noncommittally.
Lin Qiu asked, "With his strength, isn't fame and wealth at his fingertips, why would he come to such a place?"
As Lord Edith's deputy, he immediately understood the meaning of Lin Qiu's words.
"Not everyone comes here for fame and fortune. ”
After the end of the Hundred Years' War, the Colosseum of Spitane was flooded with a considerable number of veteran knights, some of whom came voluntarily, and some of whom were forced to come to this dark underground world by Henry V - but without exception, most of the knights who were ordered to come here were some unstable elements.
And the original purpose of the Colosseum was to allow these unstable elements to engage in internal friction.
At that time, many of the knights who retired from the battlefield suffered from some strange disease, they could not sleep peacefully, and their personalities became strange and irritable. At first, the royal family did not take the matter seriously, and it was not until a soldier who suddenly went crazy killed three of his comrades who were on duty with him one after another that Henry V suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem.
"If I had to name a reason. ”
Graham closed his eyes, the order of ten years ago was still vivid, even for Alyssa.
- "Not everyone who has witnessed the cruelty of war can return to the life of ordinary people as if nothing happened. ”
