After several hard work, I walked to the top of the mountain, and at a glance, I saw a flat land under the mountain, but the sand and dust were rolling, and I saw clearly that there were many soldiers fighting there. These should not be contestants, so in other words, they are obstacles arranged by the competition party, a simulated battlefield!

The sky was full of sand and dust, and Hans could not see the extent of the battlefield, only that he could see cavalry rushing back and forth on both sides of the east and west, let alone what was behind the battlefield.

Hans trotted all the way down the hill, observing the movements of the battlefield. I saw that the battlefield seemed to be divided into two sides, one side wore a red robe, and the other side wore a blue robe, and the whole battlefield had completely fallen into chaos, except for the infantry fighting on the battlefield with swords and shields, and occasionally the knights rushed back and forth to kill, fighting quite realistically.

As he ran, Hans began to think about the situation after entering the battlefield, the environment inside was complicated, and it was likely that he would not be able to distinguish between east and west, and if one was unlucky, it would be bad to come back here in a circle. But after running into the battlefield all the time, I can't think of anything good to come, so I can only take one step at a time.

The people on the battlefield didn't seem to see Hans, and Hans could see that they were not really tearing apart, but practicing their skills in a certain way, just like he practiced with other students in school in pairs. Hans kept rushing forward, and when he saw someone, he shifted a few steps and continued to move forward.

As he ran, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, and a horse rushed from the left and was about to crash into Hans. Hans leaped forward and rolled on the ground before he could barely dodge, and then another horse was about to rush over. In order not to hurt himself, Hans had to keep an eye out for the horses running back and forth, but when he rolled away from them for the second time, he could no longer see the direction.

In the dusty battlefield, the direction of the sun's rays is completely invisible. Hans was in a hurry, and couldn't help shouting, "Damn horse!"

Hans suddenly realized, and then paid attention to the horses charging back and forth, these cavalry did not really want to fight, so there was no sound of weapons clashing, and they were actually running back and forth to prevent the contestants from racing. The rules say that you can't attack the contestants, but they don't say you can't attack the staff. Hans decides to find a way to grab a horse.

He kept an eye on the riders, none of them were armed, but only had the reins in their hands, and Hans released a suspended ball of water in a place where they might well have passed, and after a while a man rode his horse rushed in front of it. When he was about to rush to the water balloon, he found that at this time, Hans shouted: "Burst!"

The whole balloon exploded, and a wave of air pushed the rider backwards, and the horse was so frightened that it stood up. Hans hurried over and grabbed the horse and turned over on it. Then the horseback picked a direction perpendicular to the direction of their charge, and after rushing for a while, he found that the cavalry group had become less and the infantry fighters more numerous. When he was wondering if he had turned back, he had already rushed to the battlefield.

Looking up, Hans found that he was lucky enough to really rush to the other side. Now I was happy to catch the horse, and I grabbed the horse and went straight north. The speed of the horse was still much faster than the speed of a man, and after a while, he crossed a small hill, and passed several runners along the way, and then there was almost a flat river in front of him, and he had reached the finish line after running two turns in the middle of several canyons.

Hans exhaled deeply, he finally arrived, and he didn't know what time it was, only to hear one of the referees shout: "Contestant Hans Long has reached the finish line, and the time is now 3:30 p.m." When Hans heard this, he almost fainted. He looked up to the sky and took another breath, trying to calm himself down. After all, this is the rule of the game, and there is no way to do it if you don't meet the standard.

A receptionist came up to Hans and said, "You must be hungry, come and get something to eat." Then he led Hans into a small house filled with a table of food and a basin of water beside it. Hans didn't care so much, he washed it cursory and sat down to eat casually.

When Hans finished eating, someone brought his equipment. At this time, the receptionist told him that it was not far from the city of France, and that in the evening they would entertain the key contestants to stay in the city of France, and that tomorrow morning there would be a ceremony for the king to present the award himself.

Hans's idea now was to get a good night's sleep, so he followed him all the way to Fran City, where he was taken directly to an inn to live in.

Hans took a nap at the inn and was called up for dinner in the evening. Hans was ushered into a lobby where it looked like he was going to have a cocktail party, with a wide selection of food and wine. And one after another, people came in, and they were all runners who had completed the course. Among the people who entered, Hans found an acquaintance, who was Cliff.

The two embraced happily, and then Cliff asked, "Hans, when did you arrive?"

Hans replied, "Unfortunately, I arrived at the finish line at half past three." ”

Cliff's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "Isn't that half an hour away from being in the elite team?" I arrived at half past five, and I came over after a break at the finish line. ”

Hans smiled helplessly and said, "I can't get in even one minute, isn't it the same?" By the way, what about Archie and Bonnie?"

Cliff bowed his head and said, "Bonnie was injured when he met the leopard at the top of the hill and quit the race. And Archie was supposed to be with me, Zuihou got lost on the battlefield, and I waited for him at the finish line for half an hour and didn't see him coming. ”

After a pause, Cliff continued, "I'm sorry, Hans, we didn't stay with you because we thought your fitness might not be able to keep up with us. It seems that we were wrong, you are much better than we thought. ”

Hans smiled and said, "Don't say that, I'm just a little lucky, I hope something doesn't happen to Archie." ”

About halfway through the meal, one of the referees came up to the stage and shouted, "Good evening, fellow contestants, I am one of the referees for this competition." There are six people who will finish before 3 o'clock in this race, and you will be able to meet them tomorrow morning. By 7 o'clock, a total of 36 participants had arrived, and 58 had given up the race. There are still 12 competitors who are still in the arena and they are still holding on. I congratulate all of you on the successful completion of the competition, and please take your time and enjoy the dinner we have for you. Tomorrow morning we will join us at the King's award ceremony and receive your well-deserved prizes, Xiexie guys. With that, he left alone.

Since Cliff was so tired, he went to rest after eating.

Hans was walking through the streets of the city of Fran, and he once again ran to the door of the magic academy and looked inside, and there were still lights in the distance, and he sat for a while before returning to his lodgings to practice his mana.
