"It's me who is arrogant, thank you Jarvis Butler for reminding me. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
After realizing that the tournament was not that simple, Leo was grateful to Jarvis for the reminder.
Seeing that Leo came to his senses, Jarvis also nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly said: "Today's tournament has been a long time coming, if you want to continue to participate, I can take you over now." ”
"Of course, because you are already one of the seeds designated by His Majesty the King, even if you don't participate, I will not object. ”
Jarvis had been paying attention to Leo's expression as he said this, with a tentative intention in his heart, but Leo got up directly from the bed when he heard his words.
"I'm definitely going to go, Senior Brother and Shen Chou are already gone, right? Butler Jarvis, you should wake me up in advance. Leo said as he placed the Permafrost Sword into a special scabbard in a somewhat grumbling tone.
A look of surprise flashed across Jarvis's calm face, and then he smiled without knowing what he remembered.
"I'll pay attention next time, little master. ”
......
......
The royal capital, the north city gate.
Although it was already the second day of the tournament, due to special rules, there were still people from all over the north who came to participate in the tournament, and they were even crowded in front of the city gate.
A team of ten forbidden army squads had been sitting and resting by the city gates, watching coldly as these people who wanted to rely on the tournament to become famous in one fell swoop continued to pour in, until the soldiers defending the city who were responsible for maintaining order were pushed to the ground by someone who did not know who.
In the next moment, the originally lazy Forbidden Army soldier exuded a terrifying murderous aura at the same time, and pushed away the crowded crowd with a calm face, and helped the soldier who fell to the ground and was trampled on a few times.
At this time, everyone around was frightened by the momentum of these ten soldiers, and stayed motionless, while the forbidden soldier who took the lead turned his eyes and swept towards a thin middle-aged man with sneaky movements.
Brush!
The sound of ten soldiers drawing their swords in unison startled the man, and his eyes kept dodging because of their approach, and finally he begged the soldiers for forgiveness without giving up.
"I didn't mean to, my lords spared me this time, it's a little thought. ”
The man laughed as he stuffed a cloth bag into the arms of the leading soldier, and the soldier's eyes moved slightly, and from the heavy feeling in his arms, he could feel that it was a bag of no less than a hundred gold coins.
"You're a little clever, where are you from in the north?" the soldier sneered, his sword sliding down slightly, as if it was about to be put down.
Seeing this, the man's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, "I am the mayor of Black Gold Town under the command of Count Lampdor, thank you for your forgiveness......"
Before he could finish his words, the soldier interrupted him, and the sliding long sword crossed his neck in an instant: "It turned out to be a town mayor, no wonder there is money to bribe, take me away and put me in a black prison." ”
The cold words made the man's face turn pale all of a sudden, and seeing that the soldiers were about to tie his hands, he regretted it in his heart, why did he push the soldier with his hand, why didn't he bring a few guards with him.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion behind the crowd, someone screamed loudly, and the soldiers felt bad at each other, and hurriedly pushed away the crowd and walked outside.
"What's going on!"
The leading soldier rushed out of the crowd and shouted, just as one of them ran from the path ahead, and when he saw him, he said in a trembling voice: "There are monsters, there are minotaurs!
As soon as the man finished speaking, he fell to the ground, and the soldier helped him to his feet, and found that the man had only been frightened unconscious, and there were no injuries on his body.
"Duck, you go back and report first, and the others come with me to see what's going on. The lead soldier asked one soldier to take the unconscious man back to the city to report, and he himself walked forward with the other eight soldiers.
They hadn't been long gone when they suddenly heard a roar full of rage, coming from the nearby woods, followed by a fierce fight.
The soldiers hurriedly rushed into the woods and saw a group of professionals in armor attacking around a tall figure.
"Captain, it's really a minotaur. ”
Seeing the tan horns above the tall figure's head, one of the soldiers exclaimed in surprise, and the captain glared at him, his brow furrowed.
At this time, the minotaur who had been attacked by the group of professionals roared again, and his muscle-like arms hammered the ground, and the powerful fighting spirit rushed into the ground, setting off a shockwave that made people stand unsteadily.
"I didn't kill anyone! Why are you attacking me!"
After knocking all the besieging professionals to the ground with a single blow, the strong minotaur did not continue to attack, but angrily opened his mouth to question.
"Bah, you monster still said that you didn't kill anyone, so whose blood is on your body! If you know each other, hurry up and arrest me, don't hinder me from participating in the tournament!" Among the professionals who were knocked to the ground by the minotaur, a warrior in silver-white armor was the first to stand up, pointing his sword at the minotaur and said angrily.
"Blood, you've wronged me, it's not human blood, it's orc blood. When the minotaur heard his words, he looked at himself in surprise, and when he saw the conspicuous blood stains on his body, he hurriedly waved his hands and shouted.
"Dare to quibble, see that I don't ...... you What bastard who doesn't have long eyes?!" The warrior shouted angrily and was about to strike again, but he was pressed by the shoulder, and immediately turned around and scolded angrily.
"Uh...... Who are you?" his voice suddenly weakened when he saw the nine black-armored soldiers standing behind him.
The captain glanced at him and said lightly: "He is right, you have indeed wronged him, take your people into the city quickly." ”
They watched for a while, making sure that the minotaur was not lying, and came out, because they had fought with the orcs before, and they could tell that the blood stains on the minotaur were indeed orcs, because of the smell peculiar to orcs.
"Finally, someone believed me, and I said that I didn't kill anyone, I just came to participate in the martial arts meeting. The minotaur on the opposite side also heard their words, and said angrily.
"You are dressed as soldiers, why do you think that what he said is true? and you still participate in the tournament, just like him?" said the soldier in a deep voice, his face was not very good-looking.
"You picked up a life from under someone else's hands and are not satisfied? and you still look down on people, do you know that this buddy pinched you to death with only one hand?"
A forbidden soldier whose strength was at the 33rd level of the Golden Initial Rank opened his mouth and said, the Minotaur has always exuded a strong momentum, even they are ashamed of themselves, I really don't know where this warrior professional who is only level 28 has the confidence to say this.
"This can't be, we're almost defeating him......" the warrior said angrily, pointing his finger at the minotaur to show them the wounds he and others had inflicted on the minotaur.
He couldn't continue, for he saw that the minotaur was unharmed, and even the chest he had attacked with all his might was left with an inconspicuous white mark.
"It's... This...... Damn, let's go!" The embarrassed warrior froze in place, and finally couldn't stand the strange stares of the soldiers looking at him, and angrily scolded his companion who was pretending to be dead, and left the woods.
After the group left, the minotaur also came to the soldiers, touched his head, and said very honestly: "Thank you for helping me." ”
"You're welcome, by the way, I just heard you say that you are here to participate in the martial arts competition, what is your name, where are you from?"
The captain smiled slightly, and then asked.
The minotaur's face darkened, and his tone was low: "My name is Morosta, and I am from the Giant Horn tribe of the Torun steppe. ”
As soon as Morosta's words were finished, the faces of all the soldiers changed slightly, and one soldier whispered: "The Torun grassland......?
The minotaur lowered his head and took his words, and said in a muffled voice, "Well, the orc army has occupied the Torun steppe. ”
"Wait, the name Morosta, are you the fifty-seventh [Giant Horned Bull] on the Hidden Dragon List?, known as the youngest and most talented warrior in the history of the Minotaurs?"
As soon as these words came out, the other soldiers also recalled that there was a name on the Hidden Dragon List that had the same name as Morosta, and they were all minotaurs.
Morosta quickly nodded and acknowledged his identity.
"Then how did you get to the Greyhawk Kingdom?" the captain asked.
"The Giant Horn Tribe was destroyed by the orcs, only I and the patriarch remained, I took the patriarch to run all the time, and finally the patriarch died, but the patriarch called me to participate in the martial arts meeting, saying that after I won the battle, I would go to work for humans to survive, so I came. Morosta shook his head, anyone could feel his downturn.
There was silence for a while, and there was only one person left in the tribe, and they didn't know how to comfort Morosta.
"Morosta, let's take you into town. ”
After a long time, the captain extended his hand to Morosta.
The minotaur was slightly stunned, then showed surprise and shook the hand that was several laps smaller than him.
......
......
Three hours later, the forbidden army squad, who had taken a half-day leave, stayed in the audience at the competition hall, each holding a few scrolls of paper marked with numbers in their hands, looking down nervously.
Bang!
Watching the tall minotaur in the ring easily knock another opponent to the ground and drop him from the ring, the soldiers suddenly stood up from their seats and let out excited cheers.
Morosta, who was in the ring, happened to see them like this, thought that they were happy that they had won, and was moved in his heart, and waved his hands at them.
Captain Mark sat in his seat and smiled wryly.
If Morosa knew that these guys were so happy because they made a lot of money betting on him, would that guy slap them into meatloaf in a fit of rage?
Probably not, remembering Morosta's honest appearance, Mark thought.
"It's so powerful, it's worthy of being a professional with a ranking on the Hidden Dragon List, and so far this minotaur is the first alien to perform so well. ”
"yes, I've been watching him since the first game, and it's been less than three hours, and Morosta has won nine games in a row, and every one of them has been crushed. ”
There were also bursts of discussion from the surrounding audience, all of them were surprised by Morosta's strong strength, and Mark smiled when he heard it, happy for Morosta.
Soon, though, his face changed slightly as a figure stepped into the ring of Morosta, and a drop of cold sweat slipped from his forehead.
