Carter Peck lunged at the Kingkiller and raised his right arm in the air—slashing down from above. With a powerful and irrepressible low roar, it looked like a tiger out of the mountain.

It's no fancy trick, but in the not-so-short career of the Night's Watch, there have been at least three novice savage raiders who have scared the momentum of this one-ounce axe, and before they even see the second one, they will be killed by a brain-gourd—if I had to describe it, it would be powerful, fast, fierce and terrifying!

......

The argument took a little time, but the battle began so suddenly, but it was not the longest foreplay that Jaime had ever experienced, and he was always on his guard, but turned around deftly at the first time, raised his sword and gently flicked away the tomahawk, so that Carter's first blow was a few centimeters away from his body, and it was not until the axe was exhausted that the first scream of Var was over.

Only the dullest opponent would be dealt with by this axe, and Carter had not expected the famous monarch killer to be as stupid as the worst of the wildlings. But - he is dual-wielding, the attack of his right hand is blocked, and the left hand!

The muscles of the chest, back, shoulders, arms, palms, and even fingers of the left half of the body are instantly gaining momentum, and the next second they tense up and swing a threatening second axe. But at the same time, Jaime's counterattack arrived.

The glittering steel sword was instantly handed to Carter, and he turned around to dodge with his head tilted slightly, while retracting his right hand, which could not be hit, raising the tomahawk to his chest to block any possible pursuit of Jaime's steel sword.

(Wonderful!)

Carter shouted in his heart, in this way, he can defend with his right hand while still unleashing the planned blow with his left hand, unless Jaime strides out of the range of his axe, otherwise he will definitely suffer a big loss under this combo!

And as soon as the monarch killer retreats, he will be greeted by a stormy pursuit!

But the combo went wrong in the next second, because Jaime's steel sword did not pursue recklessly as Carter expected, but shook to complete the feint, quickly retracted and erected it at his side, just stuck in a disgusting position: the steel sword was far longer than the short axe, if Carter insisted on swinging the axe in his left hand, whether the axe blade could cut into the opponent's body was not to mention, the arm would definitely be sent to Jaime's sword first, "self-cutting" an arm.

(Damn!, did he run into a blind cat and a dead mouse, or did he find the right way to break it in an instant?)

Carter cursed secretly, didn't have time to think about this problem, and helplessly withdrew his strength halfway, and forcibly withdrew the second axe that had been swung out.

The most taboo is to suddenly retract the force when exerting force, this withdrawal move, the nausea of being interrupted by the smooth move is not a big problem, and the worst thing is that the strength that has been used will not disappear out of thin air - you have to spend new strength to twist and eliminate the inertia of the body, and then you can do other actions!

The old soldier suddenly fell into a short period of fatigue in which "the old force has been weakened and the new force has not been born".

It's a small flaw that is negligible when fighting a wildling, but in the eyes of a skilled striker like James Lannister, it's as conspicuous as a door wide open.

The Monarch Slayer's steel sword switched from "stuck" to "attack" at a dizzying speed, flipped up and down to bring out a small sword flower, and the same slash as his previous first move took shape and fell from the sky in the blink of an eye, falling towards his face!

The steel sword, which looks so slender and light compared to the battle axe, brings a sense of power that is not inferior!

(Good guys!)

The competition in moves has not yet been won, but only looking at the strength, this pampered Lannister is not inferior to himself!

Carter's hair stood on end, and before the antipathy of the first move being interrupted completely dissipated, he quickly raised his double axe with his best efforts to cross, and with a "bell" he steadily blocked Jaime Lannister's steel sword.

The tiger's mouth is slightly numb, this monarch killer really has some ability!

......

Generally speaking, at the end of a round of fighting, the weapons of both sides are set together, and no one has touched anyone's body, then the next step is to either desperately press the opposite side to divide the victory and defeat in weight and strength, or consciously separate and retreat from each other, looking for a gap to brew the next move. Their eyes collided, and Jaime smiled and stepped forward with his left leg.

(Do you have to work hard? Although Lao Tzu is a little older, he has never been afraid of anyone!)

Carter's eyes widened, his back straightened, and he pushed forward like a bull.

But in the next moment, Jaime made an unbelievable move: he lifted his right leg and kicked Carter in the stomach.

So, in the eyes of outsiders, Carter, who was moving forward, was like sending his body to the other party's feet to be kicked.

"Poof—"

"Hmm!"

Hit in the abdomen, the strength of the whole body that was ready to wrestle was suddenly disintegrated, and the old soldier staggered back in a muffled snort, and even the tomahawk could barely hold it and let it go.

"Oh~~~" The onlookers let out a neat shout and boo, either excited or mocking, and the soldiers of the East Sea behind Carter Pike subconsciously took a few steps, ready to meet the commander.

However, Jaime did not take advantage of the situation, and Carter took a few steps back and steadied himself. The old warriors clutched their stomachs and looked at each other like hell.

(How did this guy do that?)

In the eyes of the ordinary soldiers onlookers, Carter just fought with Jaime in a very ordinary way, and was kicked by the opportunity when they separated, and suffered a small loss, but the parties set off a storm in their hearts: they actually took a kick......? Can you actually raise your foot and kick people while wielding a sword?

＊＊＊

Raising the leg and kicking forward, what's so difficult about these two movements? But it's not that simple, and anyone who has been trained in combat knows how important it is to keep the lower plate stable when wielding a weapon in his hand - when a person is standing upright, he only relies on the two fulcrums of his legs to touch the ground, but the metal weapon in his hand is often heavier than his arm, and when the center of gravity has moved much higher than in the natural state, the whole has to move constantly, making all kinds of offensive and defensive actions that will cause balanced pressure. What happens when an external force is applied or subjected, in which case one of the two fulcrums is suddenly withdrawn to do something else?

Loss of balance.

Either fall or use other parts of your body, such as your arms, to make compensatory movements to continue to maintain your balance.

No one has ever ruled that you can't use your feet in armed combat, but you can only attack your opponent's lower body, and very few will use your lower body to attack someone else's upper body - for no other reason, it's too difficult to do, and usually the gains outweigh the losses.

Carter imagined himself wielding a double axe and kicking people at the same time, and finally had to reluctantly admit that he couldn't do it.

This kick reflects Jaime's understanding of his body, his mastery of balance, and his choice and timing of offensive and defensive moves...... In a word, this guy's genius in combat is already unbelievably high!

Now it seems that Jaime's subconscious brilliant dismantling move a moment ago is probably not accidental!

＊＊＊

The pain in his stomach faded, and through the thick warm clothing and a layer of hard leather, that kick did not make Carter ineffective...... This round of competition is a long story, but it actually took place in a flash of light, and the process was only a few seconds. But the huge amount of information revealed in a few seconds is enough for those who understand it to have a good aftertaste.

The Chief Ranger was one of those who understood, and Jaime's kick was so unexpected and handsome that he was stunned...... The perfect opportunity to stop this battle farce was missed.

"Miss Vale, can you do me a favor?" Jaime didn't take advantage of the victory, and even spoke to the woman behind him.

"Ah, what?"

"One, stand back a little, stand too close and affect my performance, and two, please stop screaming, it's really noisy. ”

Jaime was serious about making a request to the blonde woman, but it was a pity that it was not the right time to say it, and to duel with someone and hook up with a girl at the same time, in the eyes of outsiders, it was a contempt and provocation for the Night's Watch Oath and the rival Akakoto. Amid the uproar of the onlookers, several officers who were able to stop the drama from continuing, were stunned, and the enraged Carter Pike took a breath and rushed at James again.

"Roar!"

He spun his body and swung his axes with centrifugal force, one backward and one up, slashing at Jaime's shoulders and waist from the same direction, exposing his side and back, but with the advantage that it was more powerful and unstoppable than before...... If the opponent wants to catch his flaws, even if he can succeed, he can't dodge the whistling axe blade, and even if he can block or push away one of them, he will never have time to deal with the other.

Wounds for injuries, haven't the people of the Lannister family always boasted of being superior, so I asked you if you dare to exchange your life with me, an old man?

The whirlwind attack worked, and Jaime finally took a step back, two axes slashing in front of him with the sound of the wind, but they didn't stop—Carter Pike spun in a circle, using his inertia to continue swinging the axe, still closing in on him!

In this way, Carter Pike swung his axe frantically forward, forcing Jaime to take two steps back with each turn...... What the latter had just said suddenly became an ornament, and Var retreated, but still screamed nervously.

The onlookers roared excitedly, and Carter Peck's frenzied onslaught was undoubtedly wonderful in the eyes of ordinary people, and they cheered in anticipation of Jaime's counterattack.

Jaime didn't make the audience wait longer, Carter Pike's spinning blade dance was certainly threatening, but it was extremely physically demanding, and the most important thing was that he would get dizzy when he turned like this!

Jaime took a step back, and a step, and a step. On the fourth step, he slammed to the ground, the fighting instinct that had been honed for years, and the fighting instinct that flowed through his veins came to life in an instant, and he twisted from retreat to forward in the blink of an eye, and in the gap between Carter's ferocious slashes, he took three quick steps.

As if he had stepped on it a thousand times, he stepped on the frozen ground into a whitish mark, one moment he was two meters away, and the next moment he rushed into Carter's arms like an arrow.

"Bang!", he relied on the collision of his body to instantly curb the opponent's forward momentum, and at the same time raised his arm, and firmly sealed all possible attack paths of the opponent's short axe with the wide sword ridge of the steel sword close to the hilt, and finally, in the case of almost zero distance face-to-face, before the old warrior could react, he raised his hand and slapped him.

Onlookers booed, and the people of the Westside cheered loudly for the wonderful performance of their own officials.

This slap is not as incredible as the previous one, and in swordsmanship, a one-handed swordman is required to learn "the use of non-armed hands to assist in combat", and this includes seizing the gap to attack the opponent's face...... Everyone understands the reason, but under such a stormy attack, the high-level combat skill of reversing the attack and defense in an instant at the same time is almost the first time that the night watchmen present have observed it on the spot.

For the Great Wall of the Savages, where the biggest enemy was in the past, such a skill was too "profound", and there was no place to play at all, so naturally no one bothered to learn it.

......

Jaime didn't wear iron gloves, let alone a knuckle or anything like that, which Carter was thankful for, but what would it be like for a famous warrior as strong as the Monarch Slayer to slap the unprotected door with ten percent of his strength?

The commander of Donghaiwang felt it this time, his eyes were full of stars, his brain seemed to be shaken into a mess, and he only tried his best to push the other party away under the effect of instinct, and slashed blindly with his double axe to prevent the other party's pursuit, and stumbled back to his rear, where is there still the brave appearance that just collided with him?

In less than a minute, Carter Peck charged at Jaime twice, once with a kick and once with a slap back...... At this time, Rao can also see the superiority of the most amateur onlookers: the commander of Donghaiwang, the outstanding warrior who ranks among the best in the entire Night's Watch legion, is not the enemy of the monarch killer! The difference in strength between the two sides is so great that it is not at all the point that such factors as "luck" or "play" play a role, and Carter has no chance of beating Jaime after 10,000 attempts.

That kind of fierce battle that flashes and moves, you come and go, and I go back and forth...... Today is destined to be gone.

As a former Earl of Runestone, a powerful nobleman above 10,000 people in the Valley, Jon Royce certainly wouldn't even have this eyesight: if you fought to the death, Carter Pike would have died twice. This damn monarch killer is so strong!

He glanced at his men beside him, and the two night watchmen from the East Sea rushed out, dragging the completely blinded commander back to the crowd so that he would not be teased again for the third attack.

"Master Carter's attempt to step over my corpse seems to have failed. Jaime still didn't pursue, but hung down his steel sword and pointed it at the ground, so that he could look around the yard for a long time: "Is there anyone else who wants to try it?"

There are few people in Castle Black, along the Great Wall, or even in the entire North. Jon looked at Carter Pike, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and his eyes were blank and speechless, and realized that he couldn't rely on anyone at the moment, so he turned his head to look at several high-ranking people of Castle Black: "My lords, this is a mutiny! If he is allowed to take away the family of the King of the Outer Fortress today, the Night's Watch Legion will no longer be disciplined as before!"

"Is it a mutiny, you don't count!" Warr argued sharply, "forcing us to stay, being hurt by those with bad intentions, causing conflict between the new landgivers and the Night's Watch, destroying the Great Wall's defenses, giving the Strange Spirits a chance to enter and exterminate the human race...... That's an irreparable heinous crime!"

......

Jeremy Lake clenched his fists and stared at James angrily and helplessly. He could see that the monarch killer had made up his mind today that he would not obey the orders of his chief ranger...... But what can he do to order the brethren to take down this troublemaker?

If Jaime hadn't been dressed in black, everything would have been much easier, but he was a night watchman!

A new commander-in-chief has not yet been elected, and it stands to reason that the chiefs of each department are in charge of all their subordinates. This means that, theoretically, together with the Chief Affairs Officer and the Craftsman, he can command the entire Castle Black except for the Logistics Department, which is Egger West.

But that's just a theory, unlike his predecessor Bunyan Stark, who has limited prestige among the Night's Watch...... If the demons attack or the dead attack, the soldiers will obediently obey the orders and go into the defense, but if they take up arms and turn their arms at Jaime's gang, who is also a night watchman and is well armed and trained? How many people will respond to the order, and how many casualties will have to be paid to take down the less than fifty men?

Even if it can be won, what kind of opinion will the outside world have about the defenders of the Great Wall when the news of this night watchman infighting spreads?

I will inevitably be slapped in the face today, since the result can no longer be changed, let's choose the option with lighter consequences.

"Jaime, what did you mean today, sending the Mance Riders to Houguan Town?"

"Walk the talk. ”

"You have to make sure they arrive in Houguan Town and hand them over to the logistics department, if something happens or they escape, I'll ask you. Plus, after you're done with this trip, you'll have to return to Castle Black to be punished and punished for your trespassing!"

Jaime had always been grumpy, but he wasn't so brainless as to be scared at the sight of someone, and since the chief ranger was relieved, he didn't mind giving the other party a few thin faces: "Yes, sir." ”

As a commander, it is really a great shame to give in to his subordinates. But what else can be done? If you want to blame, blame the Night's Watch for too long, and the Rangers, who are the main fighting force, are even difficult to deal with the fifty people that the Lannisters casually took out.

The old and sick in Castle Black couldn't help the people of the West, but the hundreds of elites from the North brought by Robb Stark and several other nobles were not vegetarians. Jeremy Lake had already made up his mind: after today's work, he would send someone to send the news to Robb, who was heading to the Long Night Castle, and tell him that his former enemy, the Kingkiller, had come to the Great Wall dressed in black and played a great role.

The night watchman could not cure him, so someone would cure him.

The Chief Affairs Officer and the Craftsman were apparently equally aware of the fighting power of the Night's Watch in Castle Black, and after some private communication, they did not speak out against the Chief Ranger's decision.

......

What do you mean, this is to let people go? Jeremy and Jaime heard a few words of conversation, where could Jon Royce not understand, and anger instantly hit his heart: today I let go of the monarch killer and the Mance Red family, and there is no way to bring down Egger and prevent this shameless man who killed one of his sons from ascending to the position of commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch!

"Don't think!" he drew his steel sword with a thud—not to go to Jaime, of course, to go to Jaime, "compromise will destroy the Night's Watch Legion!Soldiers, take up arms! No one wants to leave Castle Black today!"

Dozens of followers drew their weapons in response, and the people of the Westlands unceremoniously returned the color, and a crisp and neat sound of swords unsheathed echoed in the courtyard of Castle Black, while the more onlookers took a few steps back in unison, for fear of being caught up in the scuffle.

The conflict was about to escalate, and that was Jon Royce's last resort - the officers of Castle Black didn't want the Night's Watch to be infighting, and all he had to do was force them to choose between the two!
