156. Ineffective extinguishment

After greeting the king, the two sides turned their heads and parted.

Gregor Clegane didn't just have a gifted body to get to where he is today.

As he drove his horses to the race reservations, Lan could see that this guy's riding skills were also quite good.

Compared to the famous [Magic Mountain], Sir Xiu is like a monkey riding a dog.

No one was optimistic about his game.

But at the same time, no one thought that the accident in the martial arts arena would come so suddenly.

"Wow!" *2

The neighing of horses sounded, and the two men, who were quite different in size, charged opposite each other.

The hooves of the horses lifted the mud and weeds on the ground, and the sound of stomping on the ground was like the beating of people's hearts.

The tips of their rifles trembled with the undulations of their horses, making it unclear where to stab.

For the knight who charges with a spear, the game of landing point and shield parry is also a necessary part of the skill.

At the moment when the two staggered, Gregor's war horse was just at the time when the front hooves were on the ground and the center of gravity shifted downward.

Instinctively, Shuo shifted the shield on his deputy's hand downwards to protect his upper body and chest.

This is the largest area, and it is also the most suitable attack position for Grego's state.

But Lan En, who was watching the battle from the audience, the superhuman motor nerves made him frown at this moment.

"The horse's weight is down, but his own weight is leaning back on the horse's back. The target of the rifle is above! ”

Just as Lan had predicted, the blackened wooden lance looked like a boa constrictor out of a hole!

In the process of moving Shuo's shield down, he stabbed it directly against the edge and stabbed it in the throat!

The armor piece in the throat guard is the weak part of the armor, because the twisting angle of the neck itself is fully taken care of.

It's true that the special riding gun used in the competition is a fragile wood product. But under normal circumstances, it is required that the cavalry gun will only burst open when it hits the thick body armor of the knights, and the impact will be dispersed.

In this case, the throat armor was directly pierced!

After a moment's crossover, the war horses of [Magic Mountain] did not stop, rushing all the way to the end of the runway.

And Shuo fell right in front of the high platform where the king was.

His armor-worn body slammed into the dirt road, a palm-length wooden thorn stuck in his throat.

Blood was flowing from the veins of his throat through the opening of the wooden thorns.

Shufu stared at the ground in confusion, his arm as if to reach for his throat, pulling out the wooden thorns.

But before his hand reached his neck, he had no strength left, and could only scratch wildly in the air.

On the high platform, Sansa screams and hides in Ed's arms.

Arya's face was not good-looking, but after Virgin had passed through the tavern all night, she was now less afraid or uncomfortable than surprised.

The nun who accompanied Sansa was the most exaggerated, and she let out a cry and scream.

Ed glared at him, trying to accept the sudden bloodshed in front of him, while comforting his eldest daughter in his arms, and looking down the stage.

After making eye contact with Lan En, he saw the young man frowning and nodding slightly.

Kill somebody to do away with a witness.

And it is a blatant murder that does not fall into the hands of others.

The subordinate family of [Demon Mountain], as well as his current calm and relaxed appearance, clearly illustrate this point.

Their behavior is undisguised, and in the eyes of those in the know, they are even more arrogant.

But in the face of a strong opponent, it is necessary to be prepared for the enemy's naturally high margin for error.

Even if the Lannister family is seen by others, there is a saying.

I've killed people, but you don't know why I'm killing people.

What if it's because of a small thing?

It's not impossible for a knight to offend a Lannister over a trivial matter and then get killed, right?

Is the Prime Minister going to turn his face because of such a thing? Everyone is a big nobleman, don't make it so ugly!

Otherwise, if the big nobles fight among themselves, will this kingdom still be maintained?

So even though Ed's face was as black as soot now, he could only stay in the stands and watch the tournament continue.

After seeing the blood in the martial arts arena, the enthusiasm of the onlookers was even higher.

After several knights in a row divided the winners and losers, [Magic Mountain] entered the field again and fought against a guy known as [Hundred Flowers Knight].

His horses were covered with a flower-woven carpet, and his armor was carved with cut-outs.

While gorgeous and beautiful, the protection ability was raised by throwing money.

And he is not only wealthy, but also a man with a heart.

He rode a mare in heat, and managed to disturb the mount of [Magic Mountain] with the scent of the mare while charging with the spear.

Let the tall black horse's footsteps be confused for a while, and it is by virtue of this moment that the basic quality of the mare's original disadvantage is to overwhelm the other party in terms of impact by virtue of its good footsteps.

He used his riding skills to successfully stab the tower-like Gregor Clegane.

The tsunami-like cheers of the mountains sounded, and the victory of the glorious and handsome knight always made people happier than the victory of the [Magic Mountain].

Then the tall giant raised his hand and pulled off his helmet, drew his sword like chopping firewood, and cut off most of the thick neck of his mount!

The thick neck of the horse was only connected by a layer of flesh below when it fell to the ground.

That wasn't enough, he angrily slashed at the Hundred Flowers Knight, who had already won.

If it weren't for the [Hound Dog Knight] beside the prince who rushed down and fought with his brother for a while, it is estimated that this knight would have to explain here.

Eventually, the farce ceased with the roar of the king. Today's one-day competition schedule has come to an end.

A bonfire was set up at the venue of the tournament and a banquet began.

The adults who wanted to return to King's Landing set up their carriages and horses to return with their families.

As soon as Ed closed his eyes now, he remembered Shufu being stabbed in the throat with a wooden thorn.

He'd seen a real battlefield, and he didn't care about it. But here are his daughters, and he doesn't want them to stay here for even a minute longer.

"They're killing people. Do we need to go see Shuo's body? Sir Barristan was keeping vigil for him, and no one could do anything in front of him. ”

Ed sat on his horse and whispered to Rann for questioning.

Sir Barristan is a legend in this world, with the title of "The Fearless".

Many years ago, in a battle called the 'Battle of the Nine Bronze Plate Kings', he single-handedly rushed straight into the enemy line and beheaded the opposing generals, ending the war.

His bravery and integrity have been sung on this continent for decades, even now with a flabby old man's face.

But if you ask someone in Westeros who is the strongest knight in the world, the answer will be [intrepid] Barristan.

He has simply become the benchmark and symbol of the term "knight".

"It doesn't matter if you don't move your hands and feet, Xiufu is already worthless. His most useful things are in his head, and that information has long been hollowed out by us. ”

Lan En lifted the silver hair in front of him and said flatly.

"On the contrary, he is dead now, which will make the enemy feel that he has broken the clue and relax. The time when they relax is the time when we are most likely to get an advantage. ”

"Now, it's time for you to find out what unusual behavior the former prime minister had during his lifetime, and the resistance will be much less."

Ed thought for a moment, as if he had a goal in mind.

"I see."
