Chapter 154: Terrifying Possibility [Ask for Subscription]
Phil's worries did not arise without feeling.
She didn't dare to say that she understood 100% of Xu Siling, but at least she knew 80% of Xu Siling.
The big victory in this spear competition did not make Xu Siling's emotions fluctuate too much.
Fei'er understood that this spear competition did not mention Xu Siling's interest.
Although Xu Siling is not an angry person.
But when he was happy and angry, he made some small movements.
And this little action has been captured by Fei'er.
Fei'er knew very well in this regard that the hedging of the riding spear that other knights longed for was not what Xu Siling wanted.
Even Phil would come up with a strange idea.
Could this kind of gun competition make Xu Si bored?
If there is anything that can arouse Xu Siling's interest, there are basically only two kinds.
One is when the prisoner's head is cut off, and the other is when he fights with a sword.
At least in the few sword fights that Fei'er has seen Xu Siling, he is always so excited.
Anyway, it's more exciting than riding a spear.
Phil was a little worried about this.
After clearly knowing Xu Siling's extremely outstanding personal record in the past, she was worried that the knight competition behind her would make Xu Siling too 'hard'.
Others don't know, but she knows it very well.
When you really need Xu Siling to draw his sword to solve the problem, he can always give you the whole big one alone.
To put it mildly, in the face of Tal, the famous sword fighting knight in Tamu Fort and Raya Town, Xu Siling easily defeated and played the opponent under unexpected circumstances.
And to say bigger
That's a lot to say.
Alone, with basically no backup, clear the mountain and forest bandit camps in the entire territory.
Before the battle of Tamu Fort, after breaking alone, he faced the encirclement and suppression of more than a dozen well-trained soldiers in Tamu Fort, killed them one by one, and retreated under the rain of arrows flying in the sky.
In the battle of Tamubao, he was not only a commander, but also climbed the city wall to face the enemy spearmen when the battle situation was anxious, and also single-handedly broke the deadlock and established a victory.
It can be said that when it comes to fighting, Fei'er is always afraid that Xu Siling will give her the whole big one again.
She thinks she has a big heart, but she can't stand Xu Siling's creation.
As Fei'er said, she never needed Xu Siling to prove anything to others.
Xu Siling, he is the most perfect knight in Raya Town, and he doesn't need to be recognized by others.
No one who really knows Xu Siling's record will question it, and no one will challenge him.
In the face of Fei'er's worries, Xu Siling just smiled faintly and spread his hands, and came to the fence post of the stands to lean on.
"As the Duke said, when necessary, it is the duty of a knight to maintain the glory of the nobles and the family."
Phil rolled her eyes cutely, and if it weren't for Blanche beside her, she would have smashed it with a small fist.
Blanche was also vaguely aware at this time that the pair of nobles and knights in front of him seemed to have some unsimple relationship.
At least the relationship between the two seems to be friendly and warm. Or even a very eye-catching intimacy?
Of course, other nobles and their own knights have a lot of trust, but there are very few like Xu Siling and Fei'er.
Blanche's gloomy face was covered with a shallow smile: "Now that the Siling Knight has won the championship of this rifle competition, I see that many noble ladies and ladies in the stands have a much better sense of you, at least they will not question your strength, it should be a competition later, and it will not be too good for the knights to cause trouble." ”
"Not necessarily." Xu Siling said slowly, "Maybe it has changed the minds of many Parisian noble ladies, but the knight's opinion cannot be changed. ”
"That's right." Phil chimed in.
Blanche blinked, a little unintelligible, she followed Fei'er's line of sight, only to notice that most of the knights in the dueling arena had a fierce and jealous look at Xu Siling vaguely.
Xu Siling sighed helplessly: "Lord Duke, this perfect knight title contains too much power and glory, and it is basically a title that the knights of the entire kingdom are willing to sacrifice their lives to pursue." Not to mention Mrs. Stan, who has a grudge against us, even the knights under the Duke regard me as a thorn in my side, and this knight on the field is not proud to defeat me. This kind of thinking is not something that their aristocratic thoughts can easily change. ”
Blanche looked at Xu Siling and said lightly, as if he didn't take the competition between the elite knights in Paris and the knights behind him seriously.
Fei'er naturally trusted Xu Siling's ability, but Blanche didn't have this foundation of trust, so she couldn't help but say.
"The knight of Siling seems to be very confident in the knight competition behind him. Don't you worry that you're going to lose? ”
"Lose?" Xu Siling thought for a while, "There is a saying, believe in the possible, you can become omnipotent." At least I never thought I was going to lose, because I didn't fight battles that I wasn't sure about. ”
In other words, when others hear Xu Siling's words, they will only think that he is so arrogant.
But from Xu Siling's short sentence, Blanche felt boundless confidence and recognition of his ability.
And Xu Siling was reluctant to pay attention to Blanche anymore, and rested on the stake with her eyes closed, but the corner of her eyes sometimes opened slightly to look at Blanche.
He felt weird.
Since Blanche knew him so well, it stands to reason that he wouldn't ask these stupid questions.
Especially Blanche hates him so much, why does he come over to be with Phil? Forget it when you're together, why do you still talk to him from time to time.
Are the aristocratic women of the royal family so good at acting?
What is the purpose of her acting?
Xu Siling couldn't figure it out.
Human interactions are mostly superficial.
In other words, only on a relatively superficial level, communication is the easiest, once you enter the complex, people are a maze of each other.
It's like Xu Siling and Blanche now.
The dueling arena was cleared quickly.
Xu Siling closed his eyes and rested, and the central guardrail of the dueling arena had been removed.
Madame Bonnet had already arranged for someone to come forward and shout for the knight to come forward and draw lots.
This knight's joust is different from the rules of the rifle joust, and it is not a scoring system.
According to the past knight tournaments, everyone is more inclined to a dueling arena, and at the same time enter multiple knights to fight each other, and the knight who stands at the end. It's the winner.
It's just that the particularity of this knight tournament and the number of people are also problems, which makes this big melee unable to be held.
In order to highlight the knight's personal strength, a draw was held for one-on-one competition.
In addition to long-pole weapons and long-range weapons, the participating weapons cannot be used, and basically other knights can be mixed and matched at will.
For example, swords and shields, two-handed weapons, maces with shields, all of them.
Anyway, there are advantages and disadvantages to how to choose weapons.
But most knights, for the duel under the horse, will basically choose a two-handed sword.
As for what the reason is, there is no need to explain.
The intensity of the knight contest will only be more fierce than the spear contest.
Because it is not a scoring system, if you want to win in a duel, you can only make the opponent lose their combat effectiveness, or make the opponent surrender.
But knights are dignified, especially participating in knight tournaments, it is a big gamble, and they will not surrender at all.
Therefore, the only way to win is to make the opponent completely ineffective.
It is extremely normal for someone to be injured during the bleeding.
Thankfully, the knight's armor stage is still on the chainmail robe.
If it were a hundred years later, in the Renaissance stage, each knight would have a full plate suit and compete with each other.
Everyone is tired enough to fight a game, and no one can maintain their condition to support the next few matchups.
The protection of the chain mail robe is not particularly strong, but at least it can leave a whole corpse when it dies, and the weight is also within the range of the knight.
Ann Li originally wanted to go to the center stand to draw lots, but was persuaded by Mrs. Bonnet to return.
The reason is simple, Xu Siling does not have to draw lots.
It was Mrs. Bonnet who took care of Xu Siling, and felt that he had fought until the end in the spear competition in front of him, and his physical strength was much worse than that of others, so she let him rest well, and acquiesced to Xu Siling being the last one in the first round.
An Li naturally doesn't care, she knows more about Xu Siling's sword fighting skills than Fei'er, and she doesn't think that Xu Siling will lose in a one-on-one duel.
For the special care of Madame Bonnet, the nobles did not have any resistance, but the knights all had ideas, hoping that they could draw the final lot and face Xu Siling, and they would be ashamed.
The lottery was quickly drawn, and the last duel with Xu Siling was a knight of the earl's family, and through Blanche's small mouth, I learned that this knight's name was Wade, and his sword fighting skills were excellent, at least among the knights in Paris, ranking in the top ten.
At the beginning of the first knight competition, Xu Siling glanced at it a few times, and then closed his eyes and was not interested.
He could see at a glance the difference in the level of knight sword fighting, anyway, he was not as strong as him, so there was no need to watch the game in advance and do his homework.
The noblewomen in the stands watched with relish, including Blanche and Phil.
The two knights confronted each other from a distance.
At the beginning of the game, the two suddenly rushed towards each other.
Soon, the two-handed swords slashed at each other, making the sound of iron intertwining.
There is not much difference in strength between the two sides, but there is a gap in body shape.
The sword fighting skills of medieval knights were basically to find the right opportunity, hold the sword with both hands, sink vigorously, attack with an eagle, and attack angrily.
The main one is a force to destroy the suppression.
For the fighting and unloading moves, some knights still use it less, and they prefer to resist the attack with the advantage of armor in exchange for the opponent's casualties.
But because it is a knight competition, the armor of the two sides does not have too many advantages, and there is basically no hard resistance to attack, and most of them are mainly dodge.
No one wanted to throw in the towel, and the two knights fought more and more excitedly, and finally began to use their body armor to resist some attacks.
The intensity of the battle was rising, and the blood was flowing, and some of the noblewomen watched with wide eyes and bated breath.
With the shouts of a knight slashing, he won.
The opponent's two-handed sword was slashed away by him, and the loss of the weapon was also equivalent to the loss of combat effectiveness.
After the referee announced the victory, he cheered into the stands, and the noblewomen applauded the wonderful duel.
He earned recognition, and also won the opponent's armor equipment.
Just looking at his injuries and gasping for breath all the time, I'm afraid it's his turn to fight in the second matchup, which is a bit choking.
In the second game, Mrs. Stan's Wilbur Knight faces off against another Knight.
This time, the difference in strength between the two sides is a bit big.
Or should I say Wilbur is strong.
Order.
The opponent suddenly rushed at Wilbur, raised his two-handed sword, and smashed it into him.
But Wilbur, wearing spare armor, easily blocked the sword with lightning speed.
Next, he slashed down a fierce sword with incredible speed, only to knock his opponent back.
Wilbur didn't give the opponent a chance to breathe, and attacked one after another, and finally the opponent's sword fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Everyone in the stands was amazed and stood up to applaud.
Wilbur won easily.
When Mrs. Stan saw that her knight was recognized by so many people, she couldn't help but hold her fan to cover her mouth, and laughed extremely aristocraticly.
Wilbur didn't cheer, didn't get excited, but turned ferociously to face Xu Siling's direction.
The right hand raised the two-handed sword, and the tip of the sword was aimed at Xu Siling.
This move is self-evident and provocative.
The onlookers in the dueling arena couldn't help but clap their armor and coax.
"Raya knight from the countryside, when my sword is on you, I hope you don't beg for mercy!"
Xu Siling leaned on the fence stake of the stands, glanced at Wilbur lightly, and ignored it unexpectedly.
Wilbur seemed to be accustomed to being ignored by Xu Siling, snorted hard, put away his sword and silently returned to his resting position, waiting for the next game to start.
Phil looked at Wilbur's posture and was so angry that her teeth itched.
"You're angry."
"Nonsense, you are provoked and looked down upon by this kind of person, how can I be happy."
"Then you said earlier, I don't have to prove myself to others."
"This," Fei'er blushed slightly, "It's different!" ”
Xu Siling smiled gently: "Then I'll beat him to his knees later, okay." ”
"Okay, it's okay for others to save face. What do you mean by that sentence you said earlier? Oh yes, it's up to the owner to beat the dog. Wilbur, this dog, you can beat it, you don't have to give his owner face! ”
"Okay."
Blanche blinked on the side, and the more she stayed with Xu Siling and Fei'er, the more she felt that the relationship between the two was special.
And
Fei'er was fine before, why did she start to change as soon as she came to things about her knights?
Did God's revelation really come to this noble lady?
The game went on very quickly, and there were also very exciting strong showdowns, which could enter Xu Siling's eyes.
At the end of the wonderful duel, he did not skimp on his applause.
Soon it will be his turn.
With the help of Ann Li, prepare your armor and put on your helmet and enter the dueling arena.
From the beginning of Xu Siling's appearance, everyone's eyes were all on him.
His spear riding skills are very strong, so naturally his sword fighting skills should not be very bad.
Everyone is looking forward to the showdown between Xu Siling and Wade.
Wade was a simple-looking man, with deep eyes, and he didn't have the ferocity of the other knights.
Both sides drew their two-handed swords and did not speak much to each other.
Knight Wade took a stance, clenching his two-handed sword with both hands, and the blade was aimed at Xu Siling.
Unlike Wade, after Xu Siling pulled out his two-handed sword, he simply held it with one hand, and he was not as strict as Wade.
Wade felt the contempt and couldn't help but squint.
After confirming that Xu Siling was ready, the referee gave an order, and the duel for the title of Perfect Knight began again.
"Drink!"
Wade stepped up quickly, and quickly slashed.
Xu Siling easily dodged, never thought that Wade's split was a feint, and with a hook of the backblade, he slashed towards him who dodged again.
This little situation is still in Xu Siling's grasp.
He twisted sideways, dodging the attack again.
Wade gritted his teeth, held the two-handed sword with both hands, turned it into a thorn, and the tip of the sword stabbed towards Xu Siling,
Xu Siling had to say that this is a knight called Wade, and he has some strength in sword fighting.
At the beginning of the attack, there were successive transformation attacks, and the transformation was so fast that ordinary people couldn't dodge it at all.
But Xu Siling didn't feel the pressure at all, jumped back, and easily dodged again.
Wade was staggered and felt tricky.
He was distraught because the attack was like hitting the cotton, and there was no feedback at all.
can only maintain the offensive and force Xu Siling to dodge.
"Don't hide!"
"Coward!"
"Can a knight who can only hide in Tibet be a perfect knight?!"
For Xu Siling's continuous dodging, he didn't attack, and he didn't even block.
The noblewomen in the stands were a little incomprehensible and did not understand either.
The knight duel in front of them instilled in them the inertial idea that knights should be slash against slash, slash for slash.
And Xu Siling's style of play, which only dodges and does not attack, makes it difficult for them to accept it.
On the contrary, the knights were extremely dissatisfied with Xu Siling's approach, and shouted one after another, reprimanding and humiliating Xu Siling's behavior.
But the next scene immediately made these knights shut up one after another, and the noblewomen in the stands were stunned.
I saw that Xu Siling no longer dodged Wade's next attack, but bent down slightly, and the two-handed sword in his right hand quickly hooked upward, slashing at the two-handed sword in Wade's hand with a silver moon momentum.
The sound of intertwining iron, which I hadn't heard for a long time, sounded.
I saw that the two-handed sword in Wade's hand was knocked away, and the two-handed sword rotated in the air a few times, and finally fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Wade looked at the numb tiger's mouth, trembling not only his hands, but also his pupils.
He couldn't believe it. His own weapon was knocked down.
"From the moment you step forward and stab, your center of gravity begins to tilt unsteadily, and you can't hold the sword."
Xu Siling's short sentence made Wade wake up, he did not feel humiliated, but looked at Xu Siling with relief and expressed his gratitude.
"Thanks for the pointers."
Under the referee's announcement, the fact that Xu Siling won was confirmed.
There was no very fierce applause and cheers, because in the eyes of the noblewoman, Xu Siling's victory was a little weird, as if she had hit a big luck.
The nobles couldn't read it, but the knights weren't stupid.
Xu Siling is not something that ordinary people can reverse slash out this time, this kind of counter slash attack can also knock out the opponent's weapon, so how high is his attack skill?
The knights looked at each other.
And Xu Siling looked at the two-handed sword that fell to the ground, and his head couldn't help but think of a terrifying possibility.
He stepped forward to his two-handed sword and raised his feet skillfully.
The two-handed sword danced in the air, spinning in the air as if it had wings.
This small trick can stunned the noblewomen in the stands.
How can this sword be kicked as if it was flying?
Xu Siling easily caught the two-handed sword with his left hand, and turned it naturally, looking chic and relaxed.
He thought of one thing before him.
He seems to have been pulled into a mental trap by the talent of dual-wielding specialization.
I don't know when he started, he defaulted to two one-handed swords, or one-handed swords with hammers and axes.
But I never thought about it
Since it's a dual-wielding specialization talent, the talent doesn't describe limiting his dual-wielding weapon options.
Is it possible that he can hold a two-handed sword in each hand?
On the premise of not affecting the destructive power of the two-handed sword itself.
And also increase attack speed?
This terrible possibility had just flown through his mind, and he caught it in time.
If what he wanted was really achievable, then he seemed to have discovered something terrible.
"What are the Raya knights doing?"
"I don't know, isn't he done fighting. Wade Knight has taken off his armor, and he is still in a daze in the middle of the dueling arena. ”
The noblewomen in the dueling arena were talking a lot, and they didn't know what was going on.
Xu Siling's brown eyes were sharp, and he looked towards a certain position in the dueling arena.
He. A guinea pig is in dire need.
to verify this possibility.
With his left hand raised, his sword pointed at Wilbur, who was under Mrs. Stan's stands, his face full of incredulity. (End of chapter)
