Chapter 269 [Majesty's Visit]

(2-in-1, 6,000-word chapter.) ）

Fiona's full support was a surprise for Chen Daolin.

The next day he returned to his lodgings, called Captain Hook, and showed him the booklet that Fiona had given him.

After all, Hook was a strong warrior, and the captain carefully read the booklet provided by Fiona twice, and his expression was very solemn: "According to my judgment, this booklet should not be faked. ”

Chen Daolin nodded, he had also thought about this - this woman should not have deceived herself.

"The content of this booklet is a multi-faceted assessment of Anthony's strength, which is very comprehensive, and I can see that at least six martial artists whose strength is no less than mine have evaluated and estimated together. If it is a trap, the remarks of the six people will definitely not be so coherent. Hook said slowly, but then he sighed softly, "But ...... It's a pity. ”

"It's a pity?" Chen Daolin smiled.

Hook hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Sir, I'll be honest...... If you had obtained this booklet a month ago, I would have been able to formulate a targeted strategy for you based on the information in this booklet. Maybe...... It can help you feel a little more sure when it comes to duels. But now, this duel is only a few days away, and in just a few days, I'm afraid ......"

"The most important thing is that you think I'm a magician, a martial arts idiot, in just a few days, even if I know the other party's weaknesses, it's impossible to turn the tables, right?" Chen Daolin smiled.

Hook's face was not embarrassed. Instead, he looked at Chen Daolin: "Sir, I know that you are very adventurous. I knew this when I was at sea, but this duel is not child's play......"

Chen Daolin smiled, he stretched out his hands, grabbed Hook's arms, and stared into the other party's eyes: "Hook, I have to remember one sentence." ”

“...... What?"

"You. Have faith in me!" Chen Daolin smiled leisurely: "You know, I am not a person who is not afraid of death, I cherish my life. So I'm not going to joke with my life and my future. If I dare to do this, then I must have my own way, so ...... You have to have faith in me, remember, at any time. Have faith in me!"

I don't know why, although I knew that this matter was ridiculous, but looking at Chen Daolin's eyes and listening to his firm words, Hook's heart suddenly calmed down.

The sea lord grinned and nodded slowly: "Okay!

The gloom on Hook's face vanished, and he unfolded the booklet. Fei quickly said: "The information on this is very useful. Speaking of which, this Anthony's strength is really good. If I compete with him, my chances of winning are very small, if it is a martial arts competition. I sighed to myself. And this guy's martial arts are by no means the kind of showmanship, but have been trained in countless actual battles, he has seen blood, and has experienced life and death fighting. The mind must also be tenacious. Speaking of which, his only weakness. It's just that he hasn't received systematic and complete martial arts training, and most of his strength is to accumulate experience in actual combat, in a word...... He was killed by the wild road. So ......"

Speaking of this, Hook smiled a little: "His biggest weakness is ...... Get off the plate!"

"Next?"

"Yes, next plate!" Hook's expression was very stern: "I remember when I was in the Tulip family, I heard a person who had been an instructor in the family's private army for more than ten years told me that the practice of martial arts, whether it is training fists and feet or weapons, in fact, the ability of two hands is the easiest to practice." Whether it is a sword or a knife or a hammer and axe, practicing and practicing is nothing more than chopping, picking, stabbing and blocking and so on. Most of the instructors in the army let the soldiers practice these movements, and if they are fast, they can practice a little success in a year and a half. But...... The hardest thing to practice is actually the next game!"

Hook's eyes flashed, and he smiled, "In battle, the role of the legs is more important than the upper limbs. I won't talk about kicks and kicks, but the pace and speed are definitely not something that can be practiced in a short period of time. In the traditional martial arts hall, a skilled martial artist leads his apprentices, and it takes at least one or two years to practice the steps! When attacking, how to move forward, how to retreat when blocking, and how to slide sideways are not something that can be practiced in a day or two. This Anthony, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, but he has no Master to teach him, he has a talent for martial arts, and he trains his weapons very quickly, but he will never practice kung fu at home. Because...... He didn't have the time, and he didn't have such a teacher to teach him. When fighting, when to advance, how many steps forward, how big the pace is, how much strength to use in the legs, how to use the strength of the waist, how to use the strength of the lower limbs when blocking, how to twist the waist. Even further, when to move, when to jump, when the enemy retreats, how to pursue, how fast to rush, how big the step is, and what effect it will have on the strength are all very advanced knowledge. ”

Speaking of this, Hook suddenly asked, "Sir, have you seen Anthony, that guy, how is his figure?"

"You're in good shape. Chen Daolin was a little dazed.

Hook frowned: "I remember the time you saw him, he happened to be shirtless, how are the muscles on his body?"

"Fabulous. Chen Daolin sighed, even if he didn't like that guy, he had to admit that Anthony's beautiful muscles were really admirable. Coupled with that good-looking face, if it is brought to the real world, I am afraid that it will make rotten girls all over the world drool.

He thought for a moment and said, "The pectoral muscles explain, the lower abdominal muscles are beautiful, and the arms are very thick, and then ......"

"What about the waist muscles?" Hook stretched out his hand and touched the positions on both sides of Chen Daolin's lower abdomen: "What about these two muscles?"

"Like...... It's okay. Chen Daolin recalled: "But his chest muscles are really amazing!"

Hook smiled.

This time, the captain smiled a little lightly: "Sir, you are not a martial artist, I want to tell you something, muscles are such a thing, from the layman's point of view." Just watch the excitement. For example, the pectoral muscles or something, if they are practiced very large and strong, they will make people look very strong, but in fact, the pectoral muscles are the most flashy muscles in the use of real strength. For the use of strength, the biceps brachii are not the most important, the strength of the lower arm muscles and the strength of the triceps of the upper arm are far more important!

Also, the muscles in the lower back are far more practical than the beautiful pectoral muscles. The muscles on both sides of the waist determine a person's waist and abdomen strength, twisting the waist, bowing the body, etc., are all essential movements in battle! It seems that there is really no guidance from a famous teacher, so I haven't been practicing on the right path. It can be seen that his waist and abdomen strength is not as strong as he imagined. ”

After a pause, Hook said: "You see this booklet, which records the whole process of Anthony winning the championship in the last martial arts tournament, he won almost every battle by an overwhelming margin, he was tenacious and brave when he fought, and he dared to fight as soon as he came up. Dare to take risks, because he has rich experience in actual combat, and as soon as he comes up, he will send it away with unreasonable strength and destroy his opponent with a stormy attack. But...... In the previous competitions of the tournament. Only in one game, he had a bit of a hard time winning. And the strange thing is that this one he won the most difficult game, but the opponent was not the strongest.

You see. Recorded on this page.

His opponent in this fight was a mid-level samurai, judging from the information of the contestants. The strength has only reached the strength of the fourth or fifth level, which is one or two levels lower than Anthony. But this opponent made him suffer a lot. This opponent is small and stocky, not very good in strength, but quick in reach, and clearly a very good guy in terms of pace.

I looked at the record above, Anthony won this game, and used three times as long as the other games! Although he has always had the advantage, but throughout the game, he attacked very fiercely, and the opponent used agile pace to maneuver, Anthony was unable to hit the opponent for a while, and most of the offensive was easily dodged and defused by the opponent. ”

Chen Daolin touched his forehead and said strangely: "This is strange...... I've met Anthony, he's not a bloated muscular guy, he's beautiful but he doesn't look bulky. ”

"The relationship between pace and muscles is not very big. Hook laughed: "If you practice your pace well, even a big fat man can do it with ease." If the pace is not practiced well, a thin person may be forced into a corner in a few steps. This Anthony's pace is weak, he is difficult to get out of the right step at the right time, forcing the opponent into the corner of his own attack, and at the same time, he rarely jumps in the process of the competition, because he has a bad time, as long as he hides it. ”

"So what should I do?"

"The opponent who is not good at the next handicap, there are several points are weaknesses, one is that the speed of movement under the feet is relatively slow, I am talking about slow is not that his steps are slow, but most of the steps are wasted, for people with good steps, you can dodge the opponent's attack by taking two steps, and for those with bad steps, you may need to take two or three more steps. Don't underestimate these extra two or three steps, as it will slow down your attack speed and dodge speed when you fight. The second is that the lower set is unstable, and if you attack his legs, he will be in a hurry. As for the third...... You'd better lure him into jumping and moving. Because a person who is not good at playing the game often has a bad grasp of the timing of the jump attack! Because he has no experience in this area, when fighting, the jump attack is often very powerful, but at the same time, he is also faced with exposing his weaknesses. When a person jumps, he can take advantage of the situation to make his attack more violent, but at the same time, he is in mid-air, unable to make other movements, unable to dodge, which requires super waist and abdominal strength, and this should also be what he lacks. ”

"All in all, you mean, I can go around with him, go around with him with steps, drag him down?" Chen Daolin smiled bitterly, "But you forgot about it, and I don't know anything about steps." ”

"Is that ...... I'm sure you have a way around it. Hook smiled, "At least I know you have a way to walk at all." ”

After a pause, Hook continued: "One more thing, in terms of weapons, I think this guy will definitely choose to use a sword. Because this is the most in line with his image, and the use of a sword as a weapon is the most in line with the style of those aristocratic lords. Although this Anthony is said to be the best at heavy weapons, with his temperament, he will definitely choose to use a sword. In this way, the strength of his upper limbs, which he is best at, is difficult to show with a sword. ”

The two discussed for a long time, and Chen Daolin gradually had a mature set of ideas in his heart.

Originally, he had planned to continue to consult with Hook for a while. But someone came to the door.

Xia Xia came to tell Chen Daolin that someone was visiting, Chen Daolin was originally a Wushuang Fang, something happened there, but when he came to the living room outside, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw someone coming.

Dixon stood there, looking a little strange, and there was a faint sweat on his forehead.

And just behind Dixon, stood a man, dressed in a linen-colored robe. Formal court style, there was originally a reserved smile on his face, but as soon as he saw Chen Daolin, his expression immediately changed to an affectionate smile.

"Uh, are you ......" Chen Daolin looked at this familiar guy and immediately remembered: "Ah." You seem to be the ...... in the court."

"Master Darling!" the court attendant smiled, stepped forward to salute, and then smiled affectionately, "Maybe I should call you Professor Darling." ”

This court attendant is none other than the person who had been helped by Chen Daolin in the palace before and saved his life, the emperor's close attendant.

It's just that his name, Chen Daolin remembers, it seems to be called ......

"Lord Neil?" Chen Daolin immediately had a smile on his face, no matter what. The guy in front of him has been very good to himself for a few times. And the other party is a palace attendant, and the people around the emperor also have to make good friends.

"You're so polite. The court attendant hurriedly bowed his head: "In front of you, how dare I bear the title of 'adult'!"

Neil looked up. He glanced at Dixon, who was standing aside, and said in a low voice, "Professor, please move and come with me, Your Majesty is waiting to see you." ”

"Your Majesty?" Chen Daolin was stunned. Then his face was a little surprised: "Your Majesty...... Did you come to the academy?"

"That's what you said. Neil smiled, "You forgot about it, but you are the official dean of the Academy of Magic." Why can't you come to the academy?"

Chen Daolin knew that he was speechless, and immediately snorted.

The Emperor is the official head of the Academy of Magic, and this is a tradition of the Empire. And the current emperor, His Majesty, also treats and attaches great importance to the Academy of Magic, and often visits the Academy on weekdays. It's just that in the past few months that Chen Daolin has been in the imperial capital, it has been such a coincidence, because of the assassination, the emperor rarely leaves the palace.

Therefore, after Chen Daolin came to the academy, this was the first time the emperor came to the magic academy.

"Your Majesty is in the Hogwarts Separate right now, and Dean Carmen is talking to you. Neil smiled: "Speaking of which, Your Majesty really appreciates you, and you just came, and not long after you sat down to talk to the dean, you immediately sent me to invite you over." This kind of attention is not shared by anyone else in the academy. ”

Chen Daolin smiled, but secretly thought in his heart: This emperor is interesting, he dragged in the palace and refused to give Carmen an answer, but now that he is going to make a prince, he has the courage to come to see Carmen.

But what is the purpose of sending someone to find me?

Glancing at Dixon, Dixon immediately coughed, because there was a palace attendant present, Dixon had no choice but to keep a straight face and say in a businesslike tone: "Professor Darling, the dean asked me to tell you, about the competition in three days, please go and report to her." ”

Chen Daolin nodded, is it for that competition? How could the emperor pay attention to such a thing?

However, Chen Daolin originally had a plan in his heart, and it was also beneficial for this matter to get the emperor's attention, and if he wanted to promote the magic machine in the empire, the support of the royal family was also indispensable.

He nodded, looked at the two of them, and said, "I, I'll prepare something, so let's go with you." ”

......

Outside the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts, the Red Feather Riders surrounded the building, and the cordon had been stretched a hundred paces away.

Although this is a magic academy, it can be regarded as one of the safest places on the entire continent, but the emperor was almost assassinated even in the palace, so these palace guards will not dare to be careless.

In the dean's office, everyone else went out, leaving only the emperor and Carmen among them.

Carmen personally brought a drink to the emperor, and the emperor took a sip of the cup, and after putting down the cup, he sighed softly: "This is the sand honey sent from the northwest...... Hey, I remember that when I was young, I used to follow the army, and I went to the northwest during the spring exercise, and the life in the army was hard, and I could drink a bowl of killing honey at that time, which was the treatment of senior officers. At that time. I fell in love with it. ”

Carmen didn't speak, just looked at the emperor quietly, as if she was thinking about the meaning of the emperor's words.

After a while, Carmen said lightly: "If Your Majesty likes it, let the court's procurement buy more in the northwest." Or talk to Duke Tulip and ask her to send you a few cars, it's not difficult. ”

The emperor shook his head: "At this time, don't bother my aunt." ”

The meaning of these words was deep, and Carmen's eyes flashed. Quietly stared at the emperor for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "A few days ago, I suddenly heard His Majesty announce that he was going to establish a prince, and I was very surprised in my heart. I remember the time I entered the palace late at night, and you still ...... about this matter."

The Emperor shook his head. Interrupting Carmen's words, he said lightly: "I have sent someone to investigate the assassination of the dean, and I have found out several commissions received by the Killer Association, and many of the people who ambushed you were recruited by the Killer Organization from all over the world, and they all dispersed after the failure...... I'm the emperor though. But it is also a little difficult to eradicate this killer association. You know, this kind of organization that has existed for hundreds of years, there are always some ......"

"I understand. Carmen nodded: "The killer organization has always existed. They are nothing more than taking money to do things, the key is not them, but the real culprit behind the scenes. ”

"I can't say that. The emperor groaned for a moment and said in a deep voice, "These guys who do the killer business. I used to be honest and knew that some things could be done and some things could not be done. But this time it was a big cross-border. I'm just going to bang and bang these bad guys. Let them know that there are some things that they are in their capacity and cannot be interfered with. ”

"Oh?" said Carmen.

"The killer organization in the imperial capital has been seized and more than twenty people have been arrested. In the past two days, there have been more than a dozen people who have come to me to intercede in various ways, including two counts and a marquis. I'm a little surprised by the influence of these guys. But that's why I'm going to suppress it. A cold light flashed in the emperor's eyes.

"The killer organization and the mercenary organization have never been separated. There are many times when some mercenary groups are temporary cameo killers. It's hard to ban them all. Carmen shook her head.

"It doesn't matter how sharp the knife is, it's in whose hand it's held. The Emperor suddenly raised his head and looked at Carmen closely: "Does the dean think what I said makes sense?"

Carmen frowned, a little strange in her heart, glanced at the emperor, and said in a low voice, "What does your majesty mean by this?"

"I'm here this time to ask the dean for help. The Emperor took another sip of water from his cup, then looked at Carmen: "I heard...... You have a disciple named Lucifer. ”

......

When Chen Daolin came to the door of the dean's office, the identity of the Red Feather Cavalry guards was examined, and the palace attendant named Neil walked in with him.

This time the emperor traveled, and it seems that the old Pete did not follow. And this Neil, who seems to be mixing well, has become the head of the emperor's close attendants.

After Neil knocked on the door and went in to report, he invited Chen Daolin to go in, and then closed the door in the back.

When Chen Daolin walked into the room, he immediately instinctively felt the strangeness of the atmosphere.

His Majesty the Emperor sat there, holding a cup of fragrant sand honey in his hand, tasting it one bite at a time. Carmen stood there, facing the Emperor. But the look of this beautiful dean seems to be very unpleasant.

Although this beautiful dean also has a cold face on weekdays, at this moment, her face is not only cold, but even her eyes have a faint hint of ......

Annoyed, disappointed?

Chen Daolin noticed that although Carmen's arms were naturally hanging down, her fists were clenched, and her fingers were faintly white because she was too hard......

The dean's feelings were very excited, but he was barely suppressing himself.

Chen Daolin's heart sank, and he immediately became vigilant.

At this time, the emperor raised his head and glanced at Chen Daolin, with a sincere smile on his face.

"Aha, our Darling Professor is here. Little Darling, come on, I heard you've been making some new moves lately?"
