Chapter 11 Drawing of lots
"Didn't you say that today is Miss Xiangfei's coming-of-age ceremony, why don't you see Miss Xiangfei?" Chen Xifeng looked left and right, and there were heavily armed barons everywhere in the big square.
The muscular man said angrily: "You are stupid, this is just a place where martial arts competitions are held, and the coming-of-age ceremony is at night, and there is another place." Besides, do you think that anyone can go to the ceremony? Ordinary barons do not have this qualification at all, and only the viscount has the opportunity, or the first place in this martial arts competition, can go to the ceremony. β
"Be quiet, the teams participating in the competition, please send one person to the stage to participate in the draw. On the makeshift platform, a tall man in silver armor stood up and said to the barons below.
"This tournament is actually presided over by the Silver Armor Knight!" The muscular man looked at the silver armor man on the high platform with a look of adoration and said, "I'll go draw lots, I want to take a closer look at the Silver Armor Knight." β
Without waiting for Chen Xifeng and the others to thank him, the muscular man ran up to the high platform in a hurry.
"Rogge, this guy likes those guys who are like him, strong like a cow, and I don't know if there is something wrong with his brain. Chen Xifeng muttered quietly.
"Who is the Silver Armor Knight?" Bai Cangdong asked from the side.
"No, you don't even know about the Silver Armor Knight, one of the top ten knights under the Earl's seat?" Chen Xifeng and the other two all looked at Bai Cangdong with a surprised expression.
"Is there anything strange about that?"
Chen Xifeng said: "Of course it's strange, the Silver Armor Knight is a man who has killed the Earl-level undead, if he is not the knight of the Earl of Daolun, he is already a real Earl now." Isn't it strange that such a powerful man, as a person from Daolun City, doesn't you even know it?"
"Why would such a powerful person be willing to become someone else's knight?" Bai Cangdong asked with some puzzlement.
"How do I know, there are always some reasons, but there is nothing wrong with becoming a knight, although the title disappears after becoming a knight, and there are no three major privileges, but there are also many benefits in itself, such as the upper limit of life will become the same as the master, the upper limit of life of ordinary people is two hundred years, after you live for two hundred years, even if you have more life scales, you will still die at that time, the upper limit of life of our baron is three hundred years, and the upper limit of the viscount is four hundred years, if an ordinary person becomes a knight of the viscount, then the upper limit of his life will become four hundred years, the benefits are too greatγ β
The weak man said on the side: "Not only that, although the knights do not have the three major privileges, they have the same rank as the master. For example, if the knight was originally a baron, after becoming a knight of a certain viscount, he did not have the three major privileges to suppress ordinary people, but the three major privileges of other viscounts were not effective for him, and the three privileges would only be effective for the knight if the title was higher than that of the knight's master. β
Bai Cangdong only knew that the fate of a knight would be controlled by his master, but he didn't know that there were so many benefits to being a knight, but he still had no interest in becoming a knight.
Rogge had already drawn lots and came back, with a happy face: "Lord Silver Armor is really powerful, just standing beside him, he will be overwhelmed by the invisible momentum." β
"Rogge, what kind of lottery did you draw, and who is our opponent?" Chen Xifeng shouted.
"I haven't seen it yet, so see for yourselves. Rogge handed the lottery to Chen Xifeng.
Chen Xifeng and the others looked at the sign, and then looked at the announced schedule, and their faces became ugly.
"It's over, don't talk about entering the top ten this time, it's hard to say whether you can pass the first hurdle. Chen Xifeng shouted with a bitter face.
"Our opponent in the first round is Du Changlong's team, if the Sword and Shield Baron is still there, our chances of winning are very high, and now I am afraid that there is only a thirty percent chance of winning, or if we give full play to our own strength. Even if we get lucky to win, the teams we face in the next two rounds have the strength of the top five, and if we win these three rounds, we will only enter the top ten, and this time it is really miserable. β
Chen Xifeng and the three of them all gritted their teeth and glared at Rogge: "It's all because this thing has been looking at the silver-armored knight when the lottery was drawn, and it was only after the lottery that such a bad lottery was drawn." β
"Hey, the draws are all random, how can you blame me, it's just bad luck. Rogge shook his hand and stepped back.
"Forget it, it's useless to blame Rogge now, let's discuss it and see how to pass Du Changlong's level. The weak man said.
Chen Xifeng thought about it, and said like a few family treasures: "Du Changlong's team, the strength of the five people is not weak, Du Changlong will not talk about it, only Feng Lie is slightly better than him in our team, and the other four people, the strength is not much worse than Du Changlong, they are all between us, if the sword and shield baron is still there, we are not afraid, it is really difficult now." β
"Fortunately, this competition is a wheel battle mode, after a one-on-one duel, the winner can continue to compete with the next opponent, all five players are defeated and lose, as long as the order of appearance is properly arranged, we still have a chance to win. Li Yan, a weak man, analyzed.
Feng Lie was very calm, and waited for Li Yan to finish speaking before taking over: "Du Changlong is very cunning, and he is timid and suspicious, I guess he will definitely put himself in the last place." β
"Yes, since he is in the last place, then Feng Lie can't be ranked in front, if Feng Lie is defeated early, no one will be able to suppress Du Changlong, let's let Feng Lie be ranked last. Chen Xifeng said.
"That's not appropriate, we are at a disadvantage in terms of strength, even if Feng Lie is ranked last, it is still possible that Feng Lie will have to fight with others before meeting Du Changlong. It's better for us to put him at the end, anyway, he will be directly defeated if he encounters any opponent, and it won't play a role in the front, and in the end, in case Feng Lie and Du Changlong fight in the end, maybe he can still pick up a bargain. Li Yan pointed at Bai Cangdong and said.
"That's a good idea, let's do it. Rogge agreed.
Bai Cangdong didn't say anything, he followed their arrangement, anyway, he just came to see the strength of the other barons, and it didn't matter what position he ranked.
Curiously looking at all the barons present, as well as the silver-armored knight who presided over the tournament, his eyes froze as he passed over the VIP seat.
There were several viscounts sitting in the VIP seats who had come to watch the game, and one of them turned out to be the strange woman with a black veil and a masked face he had met in the arms shop.
"Who is that woman?" Bai Cangdong stabbed Chen Xifeng, who was resting and preparing for the battle next to him, and pointed to the woman's position and said.
"I can't see that your kid is still a pervert, but I advise you not to beat her idea, it's better not to even look at it, don't look at her beauty, every move is seductive, but it is a real beauty snake, the famous poisonous widow of Daolun City, the sister of the Earl of Daolun, married three times, and killed three viscounts, all men love and hate her, love her beauty is extremely coquettish, I can't press her on the bed to fiddle with it, but I am afraid of being killed by her. Chen Xifeng whispered.
"It turned out to be the sister of Earl Daolun, is she also an earl?" Bai Cangdong said in surprise.
"You think it's so easy to become an earl, I heard that she is a viscount, and after marrying, the wife can get the rank and privileges of her husband, but the three people she married are all viscounts, just equal marriages, so everyone calls her the viscountess, her real name is Red Lotus, and some people call her Madame Red Lotus. β
Li Yan looked at Chen Xifeng with a smile: "Hongmao, you know so well about Madam Honglian, do you want to beat her idea?"
Chen Xifeng shrunk his neck: "I just listened to what others said, how dare I beat her idea, I haven't lived enough, not to mention that people don't look down on me at all, with her status, even if she wants to find a guest to enter the curtain, at least she has to find a viscount-level person, where is my turn." β
The competition went on very quickly, because the first team had to be decided during the day, and the first team had to go to Miss Xiangfei's coming-of-age ceremony in the evening.
It was Bai Cangdong's turn to appear, and according to the pre-arranged order, Chen Xifeng was the first to appear.
Chen Xifeng summoned his own weapons, and there were no less than seven weapons on his body, three of which were baron-level weapons, including the fiery red long knife he held in his hand.
The opponent is not weak, he has the same seven weapons, and he is also three baron-level weapons, and the long sword in his hand is also baron-level.
The battle was very fierce, Bai Cangdong watched it with relish below, the two of them on the stage both had three or four different martial arts, although there was no level in use, they just relied on armed hard fighting, but the martial arts themselves were very powerful.
After a series of fierce battles, in the end, Chen Xi narrowly won the risk, but he didn't have the strength to fight anymore, and the second baron of the other party came on the field and kicked him down with three or two kicks.
The second muscular man Rogge on the field is much more violent, and he goes up and smashes hard, it is a rampage bull, and the baron on the opposite side is also a dead-eyed guy, Leng is fighting hard with Rogge, you punch me and I punch each other, and in the end the two people are scarred, and in the end Rogge is strong enough, kicking the opponent off the high platform and winning the victory.
Rogge's own injuries were not light, and he couldn't stand up after being beaten by the new opponent a few times, so Feng Lie and Bai Cangdong went to the stage to carry him down.
Li Yan, who was the third to come on the field, was all baron-level armed, but there were as many as three kinds of weapons: crossbows, long swords, and daggers, and they were all baron-level weapons, which directly suppressed the opponent, and without being injured at all, he swept the opposite side.
"Okay, sissy, kill one more and we'll win. Chen Xifeng cheered below.
"Fuck it, we've got to get in the top ten. The injury was not light, and Rogge, who was being treated on the side, also shouted.
The fourth baron on the other side came on the field, because Li Yan's armament was too luxurious, and the baron, like the previous people, was also pressed and beaten by Li Yan, and seemed to have no ability to fight back.
Just when everyone thought that the victory was in their hands, Li Yan suddenly didn't know how to fall to the ground, and was kicked down by his opponent for some reason.
