One day after entering the royal capital of Bavaria, the servant beside him asked.

"Master, shall we leave immediately?"

"No, I heard that there is a martial arts competition, let's stay and see how these southerners compete."

"Ireland" is remote, sparsely populated, and has few written records of early history, and during the "Dark Ages" it was dominated by tribal confederations, mostly attached to the powerful monarchs of neighboring England or Scotland, acting as local princes.

At that time, some of Ireland's great tribal chiefs also proclaimed themselves kings.

This kind of king, who led a population of several thousand, was ridiculed by the English as a "false king".

In the Heroic Age, the chieftains turned into feudal lords of all sizes, abandoned the fortresses, and built strong forts.

However, the level of exploitation and power in the area was not as severe as that of the nobles in other feudal regions, and they did not arbitrarily convict the lords, and when the lord's rule was in trouble, they were often replaced by powerful lords (inferior nobles) in the territory.

Durham was a nobleman in the eyes of the people in his regional town, but in the eyes of the Swabians with whom he dealed, he was just a merchant.

Ireland has not hosted jousting tournaments for decades since Durham's grandfather, and Durham was fortunate enough to see this lively scene and wanted to see it. It was decided to stay a few more days. ”

These days, Durham was also in the tavern, and heard some discussions. It turned out that the jousting tournament used to be held once a year, and it was the moment when King Deman brought back a large number of jewels from the Holy Belt, and he was in high spirits.

However, too many competitions caused casualties among nobles and knights, and the financial expenditure was also extremely heavy, so it was held for four consecutive years before it was changed to a triennial session.

The martial arts competition was held in the horse farm on the outskirts of the royal capital.

In addition to the Swabians, there were also landless knights from Northern Italy, Denmark, Franks, Austria, or aristocracy who loved to fight.

On the day of the match, Duren and his two servants squeezed in and became a member of the crowd.

Du Lun saw a lot of strong wrestlers, this competition, there is a part of the entertainment competition is a strength competition, which does not require any skills, so many civilians can participate.

The organizers took out the wooden stout arrows and asked the players to break them with the strength of their arms.

The caliber of each arrow is thicker than the thumb, and if you can break one, you will have a lot of strength.

Duren also went up to play with it, and only broke one.

The most powerful one of the day only broke two at the same time, and when the three arrows were folded together, no one succeeded.

Duren thought of his three children and said to himself, "As long as the family can unite together, then they can exert great energy to resist external difficulties......

"The Discipline of the Three Arrows", this inspiration, was also written by Durham in the record of his southbound experiences.

……

The Swabian jousting tournament was lively and accompanied by a lot of music and dancing.

Before the opening, the group of artists directly under the royal family will play for the audience.

The music was light and fun, and Durham heard the music for the first time, drank two large beers and shook his head.

King Deman was captured in the East, and it was only after several Northern Tianzhu musicians who were employed by the Abbasids that this exotic music took root in Swabia.

Swabia is also one of the breeding areas, and a few Bavarian feather horses can breed in Swabia.

There is also a kind of "piercing steel", which is a metal specialty of Swabia, and the hardness and sharpness of piercing steel are not comparable anywhere, but as too much time has passed in the Rebellion of the Traverser, the aura has returned to stability, and the elements of the mutant mine have been depleted and dissipated.

Since 100 years ago, the steel mined every ten years is only enough to produce such a beautiful and sharp steel sword.

In addition, the steel sword will also be damaged, so there are only ten steel swords left in the world, after the crown of the Yellow Hair King, these steel swords were all taken back to the treasury and re-smelted into a steel sword, which he named after the family coat of arms - the holy deer.

After that, he didn't make swords of the steel that was mined, but all of them were used to strengthen the Holy Deer Sword.

When the royal Hohenzollern arrived, everyone was half-kneeling to greet him.

In addition to the official and legal members of the royal family, he also followed his lover and illegitimate children, all dressed in gorgeous silk clothes, and the servants followed to help pull the hem of his clothes, so many people to support, which is also one of the reasons for the financial tension of the royal family.

As a ruler, Deman only kept his subjects in a state of starvation, and was no more clever than the vipers of his neighbors.

But he doesn't think so. "Behold, there is no rebellion in the land, and my rule is ten times wiser than that of a viper."

The King of Deman in Duren's eyes, the warrior posture, the sword worn at his waist, thought it should be the legendary "Swabian Steel Sword", he guessed correctly, and this sword is the "Holy Deer", which once followed him in the battle in the East, and slashed the enemy in the cold.

Durham was in a remote location, and it was only occasionally heard of the sword's prestige, and the other knights who came to the battle were attracted to it, and at the same time thought that if the yellow-haired king fainted, it would be good to announce that the victor would receive the sword.

The holy deer is one of the "Five Swords of Heroes", a holy weapon pursued by thousands of knights.

The so-called Five Swords of Heroes, the most famous is the "Sword in the Stone", which implies that the prophesied prince will dominate the north, which is of great significance. Coupled with the long age, various legends are extended, the most mysterious, and the former residence is the first.

For hundreds of years, many princes and careerists in the north have pretended to be the prophesied princes.

William, the new conquistador of Scotland, also said that he was a legend through his men and diplomatic spies.

The next most famous was Frank's "Roland Sword".

The ancestor of Heyderian and the founder of the Franks, Nang Capet.

During his lifetime, he combined all the swords treasured by the previous royal family, with "piercing steel" and "light stone".

and the hair of the "Conqueror Madu the Great" and the "Empress of Terror" that were inadvertently obtained.

"Roland" is taken from the name of the most powerful knight under the command of Madu the Great, he was born in the ancient Frankish region, is the legendary saint hero of the Franks today, and it is said that he "rode a thousand"!

However, what future generations don't know is that Roland himself is a knight swordsman who was "systematically strengthened" by Ma Du, so he is so powerful, even if he is injured, he can exert his strongest strength, and he is not afraid at all when fighting with less.

The whereabouts of this new holy sword are unknown after Nange's death.

This is a "real holy sword", there is no water, and the special hair of the traverser is smelted, so that the sword body will never be broken and broken, and even the thick marble wall can be split!

There is a fourteen-character poem that praises --

The sword light flies across the Mediterranean, and the sword light chills the Franks!

The third heroic sword was hidden in the Byzantine Emperor's treasury, and the Purple Emperors of all dynasties would wear this sword when they were crowned and receive the blessing of the "Orthodox Patriarch" in China.

Sword of Damocles!

This sword has the longest history and has been passed down for thousands of years.

This sword came with a claim in the early days, before the Purple Chamber Succession Law was determined, it was held by several large military princes in turn, and the owner had the right to compete for the Byzantine Empire, and after the inheritance law was reformed, it returned to the imperial treasury.
