124 Book Horse War

The Duke of Lantern has been very busy lately, so busy that almost every minute different people come in and out of his office study.

When the Iron Princess asks what the Duke of Lantern is up to, Kathbello looks a little embarrassed. Although he didn't know exactly what his grandfather was doing, it must have something to do with the dúlì in the lantern area after the New Year. Maybe Grandpa is in contact with familiar forces, or he may be releasing disinformation and smoke bombs to the White Moon Army stationed near the Lantern area, or maybe he is even gathering some assassins to plot to kill someone.

Can you talk to Iron Maiden about these things? Of course not. Therefore, the two of them could only continue to drink tea.

Iron Princess's luck was not bad, and the Duke of Lantern, who was busy with his work, heard that his grandson had brought a girl home, so he came to see it out of curiosity. So she was also fortunate to see the side of this old man who she had been planning for a long time.

It's a secret that Kathbello brought the Iron Princess back, and it was Louyle who informed. She rarely came to stay at Lantern Castle for a few days, and of course she had to do everything she could to make trouble for her pesky cousin, and she kept an eye on him. When she found out that Cathbello had brought home a woman she didn't know from outside, she immediately let her subordinates spread the word in the house.

The Duke of Lantern was very taboo to have outsiders enter the mansion at this sensitive time, so he went to see what the hell his grandson was doing.

Cathbello had been sending for his father and grandfather, and a servant had informed him of the Duke of the Lantern before he arrived. He didn't want his grandfather to meet with the Iron Girl, and it would be too early to leave a bad impression on his grandfather if there was any rudeness in the Iron Girl. So the Iron Princess was hidden in a cabinet by her sweetheart.

Through the cracks in the cabinet, she saw the real Duke of Lantern for the first time. The old man was much more emaciated than the imposters who lived in the inn, giving people the feeling that they would not live long.

Cathbello prevaricated at the door to his grandfather, "No, how could I possibly take the lady home?" I was drinking tea alone and thinking about things, and I didn't do anything else. ”

The Duke glanced at the teapot on the coffee table, which could be divided by one person. I also believed it, but it was just that the servants in the house were spreading falsehoods again.

After the Duke of Lantern left, there was a crisp sound of porcelain dishes falling to the ground and shattering in the cabinet. The Iron Princess tries to open the door and come out, but accidentally knocks off the hidden cups and saucers.

Kasbello hurriedly opened the cabinet door and said with concern, "You haven't been cut by the porcelain, have you?"

The easily satisfied Iron Princess was moved and showed off one of her fingers. (This chapter was uploaded by netizens) There was a string of blood droplets hanging on his finger belly. She's really been put on hold.

Cathbello was very distressed when he saw it, and hurriedly touched his new handkerchief.

The Iron Princess smiled and said 'Ah~', and the end note dragged on for a long time, full of teasing.

Kathro's face flushed, and he was at a loss to face the white fingers that stood up in front of his eyes.

"Saliva kills bacteria and heals wounds. The Iron Princess smiled and nodded. Cathbello had no choice but to obey respectfully, and held his fingers.

Early the next morning, the tournament was played like a moon. Lantern City is different from the frontline city of Defeated Soldiers, it is a semi-open city. The wall did not enclose the entire Lantern City, and a river about twenty meters wide flowed through the city.

Princess Fuhu and the fake duke wore the lantern guards that the Iron Princess had gotten and a full-coverage helmet mask to cover their entire faces, while the three Kingdom Knights and the Iron Princess showed their heads generously, and no one knew them anyway.

Six of them, very big, were pulled by Cathbello's men in wagons to the clearing of the hunting ground in the city, where they were already guarded by the Sower Legion, and the idlers and others could not enter.

The lanternman's carriage is the best sign to carry people directly to the competition venue without hindrance. There, a field the size of a football field has been fenced off with a wooden fence. A few camp tents were set up sporadically outside the arena.

Since this competition is quite private, there is not much time to prepare. So it looks a little shabby. Several large tents for each family are being erected, long tables, chairs, and carpets are being brought in from the Lantern Castle, along with a large amount of food, and the cooks are already busy for lunch.

Due to the chaos in Thailand now, the noble Duke has not even gotten off the carriage, and has formed a territory of his own with the luxurious carriages of many of his relatives. Just watch the game from the car. The other families are similar, and they don't have any contact with each other, but they just talk to their own family members there.

Kasbero, the only lantern family member who wasn't in the car, was adjusting his armor at the camp. This suit of armor was custom-made by him a few years ago, and now it is somewhat ill-fitting to wear, and the joints do not feel ideal.

The Iron Princess ran directly towards him with someone, and Princess Fuhu followed behind and was speechless when she saw her sister like this. The Fourth Horseman spoke ill of him over and over again. Princess Fuhu didn't have a good impression of the lantern boy in front of her, and was full of prejudice. She had already decided that as long as this mission was completed, she would drive her fourth sister back to Baiyue City and lock her up, and she would not be allowed to come out until she was calm.

If conditions permit, Princess Fuhu doesn't mind slaughtering this lantern boy and directly removing the bane. Thinking so, the killing intent she unconsciously revealed made everyone around her shiver.

Cassbello saw that the few people brought by the Iron Maiden seemed to be heroic, and there was a guy wearing a terrible mask who was very brave and murderous, and he was a little more confident about winning the game.

The fourth knight, who has the same murderous aura as Princess Fuhu, looks like a little brother in this group of people, not to mention the powerful and unparalleled Princess Fuhu, just the first knight and the second knight with an unhappy expression on their faces give people a sense of oppression.

Cathbello didn't talk much to the men, they came a little late, and now the first horse fight was almost underway. He took out the Sun Sword from the space prop, smiled confidently at the Iron Princess, and entered the arena under the guidance of the attendant.

Princess Fuhu saw that the Divine Sword Lieyang actually ran into the hands of that little young master, her eyes were about to pop out, she didn't know that her fourth sister had spent so much money that she even borrowed this kind of weapon.

It is obvious that getting angry now will not have any effect, Princess Fuhu is forcibly suppressing her anger, and they still have a task to perform. Since the Duke of Lantern stayed in the car and could not get out, they could only wait in the camp tent for the time being, looking for a suitable opportunity. If she can't find it before the end of the game, Princess Fuhu will jump out and make a fuss and take advantage of the chaos to swap the real and fake dukes, which is not difficult for her.

Due to the second knight's ability to see sheep, he only used a little strength, and the lamp guards beside him avoided the six people from a distance, not wanting to look at them. As long as they remain in this state, a few of the six of them will not be noticed.

On the field, Kasbello had stepped onto a horse and entered the track. Horse warfare has never been the focus of competition, and there is nothing to see, but the tradition of being a plain country has been preserved.

According to the rules, horse fights are only between two riders. Before the race, they are put into a slender track surrounded by a low fence and then accelerated to hedge. The rider who picks off his opponent in staggered space wins.

Cathbello's opponent was wearing overweight armor and carrying a wooden spear long enough to be four meters long, and he was so equipped that he didn't even have the strength to climb onto his horse. The horse under this person is also considered a hero among horses, and ordinary horses can't run away with so much weight, at least this horse under Cathbello's ass may not be comparable to the other party's.

Everyone is dressed tightly in horse battles, and there is only one chance to shoot, so personal accidents rarely occur. After all, ordinary other people's weapons can't penetrate the armor and hurt people's lives, even if the rider is trampled on a few feet after being picked off the horse, the body of the warrior and the professional life of the priest on standby next to him are enough to ensure the safety of human life.

On the other hand, the horse's life is not so well guaranteed.

Warrior attacks are usually fatal to horses without any protection. It's not that the lantern people don't give Cathbero good horses, they really don't have any belligerent horses to use, and they all died in the previous races. In the last competitive match, one of Kasbello's uncles and the city lord of Bright City got together, and the two had a lot of fun competing in more than a dozen horse battles, at the cost of killing the best horses in Lantern City.

This uncle is now in the carriage, slightly blaming himself, in his opinion, it is because he has led his nephew to fall behind in the equipment at the beginning, but he doesn't know that Cathbello is holding the artifact in his hand and is thinking of becoming famous in a fight.

The Sun Sword is incomparable in length to the standard mounted spear of traditional horse warfare, and it doesn't look anything special on the outside. Such a weapon is now in the hands of Cathbello, which makes the onlookers look a little puzzled.

The Duke of Lantern himself didn't care too much about this competition, and he didn't ask the eldest grandson if he had any countermeasures to deal with the competition. Now seeing Cassbello stepping on the horse with a long sword, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, it seems that his grandson is ready to give up this time.

The Iron Princess sat on the bench in front of the tent and cheered Kasbello in her heart. She didn't dare to speak out openly, it would not be good if she attracted the attention of everyone in the Lantern family in the distance. Princess Fuhu looked at Kasbello on the field with disdain, there is a scorching sun here can also be called a game?

The process of the game, like Princess Fuhu's comments, is simply cheating. Cathbello rode his horse and didn't run at all, but waited in place for his opponent to attack. The opponent did not disappoint him, and drove the strong war horse under his crotch straight over, rolling up a cloud of dust on the field.

Kathbello held his sword horizontally, his calf slightly tightened the horse's belly, symbolizing the horse's belly, and suddenly his eyes lit up when he was still thirty meters away from the other party. I saw that he vigorously waved his sword-wielding arm, and actually threw the scorching sun at the opponent's horse legs. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
