Chapter 185: Shameless Tactics
He closed his eyes, as if he was intently enjoying Sophia's massage, and after a while he spoke, "Well, what can I do? Kill him in the game? Turning enemies into friends? You know it's even more unrealistic.
I know he's a nice guy, and if he hadn't been Blazer, we'd probably be good friends or comrades-in-arms.
But I still have to do it, and he is not defeated by me, but by his pride.
If the same thing were to be done by someone like Dean, I wouldn't have cared at all.
They were originally developed in the imperial capital, and we were in a safe corner, and the water from our own wells did not interfere with the river water.
But they have reached out to the southeast of the Empire, and you know that it is the city of Veradi, and the city of Gaokan, where we are, will be subject to their control if necessary.
Although his father was only a brigade commander, once the big war began, how could we trust our backs to an enemy.
You know how many years it took for Gaokan City to form the current stable pattern, and how many family children died.
Wesley and I are brothers now, because our ancestors have given their lives for each other over the past few hundred years.
Therefore, even if Steven is destined to become my enemy in the future, I will make him humble from the bottom of his heart when he thinks of me. ”
Sophia whispered in Philip's ear, "I know, I know. Close your eyes and rest for a while, I'm here with you. ”
Philip never opened his eyes, and with the scent of a girl between his noses, he really fell asleep.
It wasn't until he was woken up by Wesley that he realized that the girl had already left.
Two days later, the people of Green Tree Vine Academy finally ushered in their penultimate game, and the opponent of the game was none other than Snolia College in Hoover City, which lost the last game.
The opponent's lineup has not changed, but Green Tree Vine has made a small adjustment, and Chuck, who has been the mainstay of the team, was replaced by Phelps.
As the referee announced that the players of both teams were on the field, the captain of the Snolia Academy, Victor Benis, cursed shamelessly with a black face.
And the people of the Dragon Flute Academy in the audience laughed together, and even applauded collectively.
This is because all the personnel on the field of the Green Tree Vine Academy, including Philip, all chose the combination of swords and shields.
Five identical sword and shield warriors lined up and walked into the venue, making all the audience at the scene talk.
It's not that Philip is shameless, but the rules of the game do not restrict the right of the players on the field to choose weapons.
If the Snolia Academy is not satisfied with this, it is completely possible to let Victor change his weapon as well, or simply leave the game.
But unfortunately, there is only one Awakened on their team, and there is not much room for choice.
After all, among the hundreds of intermediate colleges in the country, there are very few students who can awaken, and each of them is a leader among their peers.
The game begins, similar to the tactics of the Dragon Flute Academy, but completely different.
As the bell rang, the four men except Philip formed a tight barrel-shaped battle formation, like heavy turtle shells, leaning against each other's backs, blocking each other's attacks from the shield wall.
Don't seek merit, but seek no fault, as long as you don't lose points.
Philip, on the other hand, was alone, turned on his awakening and rushed straight towards Victor.
The initial distance between the two sides was 150 meters away, a distance that took Philip less than eight seconds at full speed.
Victor looked at the speed at which Philip was running wildly and knew that it was impossible for him to outrun him, so he had to make a desperate bet and respond to Philip's challenge head-on with the bow and arrow in his hand.
I have to admit that Victor's natural ability is really terrifying.
If it was replaced by a real arrow with huge lethality, Philip really didn't dare to rush forward so rashly, and he still had some scruples.
But this is the game, and Philip only needs to hide the scoring point in his chest and use his shield and one-handed sword to knock the arrows of his opponent away.
Even if there is only a slight change of direction, a deviation from the scoring point is a victory, and the typical mistake is a thousand miles.
In the space of eight seconds, Philip had been hit by at least ten arrows in his limbs, and his steel plate armor was clanging, but all of them had hit the ineffective part.
Only when he poked his head out to observe, he was frightened into a cold sweat by the head-on arrow on his forehead.
But at the critical moment, the Prediction skill was activated again, and Philip narrowly avoided it, allowing the arrow to fly away from his helmet.
Eight seconds later, Victor threw down his bow and arrow with a helpless face, signaling that he was killed.
In the rest of the game, as expected before the game, Snolia Academy faced the Iron Bucket and tried their best to score only one point each against Chris and Randle.
This is because they are not very proficient in swords and shields, and they will always show flaws.
After the main force Philip returned, the Awakened had a huge advantage, allowing Philip to easily end the battle in five minutes even if he didn't have the ability to turn on.
When the last person from the Snolia Academy was announced to be eliminated, they left tears of unwillingness.
After this battle, the champion and runner-up of this year's Kent Cup competition are not known, but the third place has been born in advance, that is, Snolia College in Hoover City, which lost both battles.
The day after tomorrow, the final match of this Cup, which is the championship match, will be held in this old arena.
At that time, all the participating teams and members of the royal family, ministers and dignitaries will gather here to witness this glorious moment.
Imperial Capital Theological Seminary, Anna held her plate and found a window seat, today's dishes are good, and the fried fish roe, crispy and fragrant, is her favorite.
Shirley sat down beside her, took a slice out of it, and threw it into her mouth, nodding her head as if she was pleased with the taste.
Anna glanced at Shirley in disgust and complained, "I didn't wash my hands, and you can't afford to eat, why do you always rob me." ”
Shirley laughed, glanced at the girl's figure, and said meaningfully, "I don't think you need to replenish more energy." "In exchange for another white eye from the girl.
The two of them were flirting here, but the people around them were indifferent at all, and no one dared to approach the table.
Everyone knows that Anna, who is just fifteen years old this year, has become Queen Shirley's new favorite, and the two of them can be seen tired of being together almost every day, even in Anna's class.
"Don't you really have to go to class? I mingle here every day, and even the library is more familiar than I am, who are the two of us seminary students? Anna's cheeks were bulging and her mouth was still muttering.
Shirley drank her drink slowly, and didn't forget to give the girl at the next table a flying look, before she put her arm around Anna's shoulder and said, "No way, there are too many people in the seminary that I worry about."
Let me tell you a secret, the library area on the third floor is the best place for trysts, quiet and private, and the teachers never check it. ”
Anna shook her hand away angrily and asked, "Philip, they're in the final, aren't they?"
Shirley asked in an exaggerated tone, "You know everything?"
Anna chewed the roe in her mouth carefully for a long time before swallowing it and wiping her mouth: "Yes, the senior sisters are talking behind their backs, and my posture is so good that it can get into the eyes of Queen Shirley."
If I fall out of favor one day, I'm afraid they will come to me in the toilet to talk.
My mom went to the hotel where Philip was staying, and my brother got his leg broken, and then you just happened to show up.
No matter how stupid I was, I knew it couldn't have been this coincidental.
Is he in big trouble this time?"
Shirley wasn't joking this time, looking at Anna's beautiful eyes and explaining, "Maybe soon, maybe for a long time, it will be resolved."
But rest assured, this matter will not implicate you. ”
Anna frowned and didn't say anything more, but continued to take small bites.
Shirley continued: "It's normal for you to have thoughts, after all, the most innocent person in this matter is you.
Even my cousin in bed wasn't really innocent.
If it had been me, I would have scolded the door a long time ago. ”
Anna jerked her head up and asked in surprise, "Philip is injured?"
"No, my other cousin, Bruce, Philip's cousin. ”
"Oh, it's the fierce-looking, lion-like one, I have an impression. ”
"It would be nice for him to hear you describe him like that. ”
Anna shook her head and muttered for a while before she said, "I'm not angry, you know what my brother is like." Sooner or later, this kind of thing will happen, and I'm a little used to it.
I'm just a little sad, and I don't know why, it's just psychologically uncomfortable. ”
Shirley leaned in again and whispered in Anna's ear, "Because your childhood friend is now so high and so far away that you can't do anything and get rid of it, am I right?"
Anna shook her head, nodded again, and finally sighed, completely putting down the cutlery in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.
Shirley looked at the girl's tangled appearance, sniffed at her long golden hair, and comforted, "Philip, that bastard boy cares about you very much."
Although I can't see through this little cousin, I can see that some people have a special place in his heart, and he misses the old ones very much. ”
Anna still shook her head, and said quietly: "I know, in fact, before the last meeting, I was very nervous, but when I saw his eyes, I knew that he was still the same Phil."
It's impossible without change, after all, we've all grown up.
It's not just him who has changed, I've also changed, and I'm no longer the little girl who only knows how to complain and cry in Fallen Horse Town.
Now I just hope he can win the championship and come back to Gokan City safely.
And I will return to my original life, study hard, and strive to awaken as soon as possible and become a true saint.
Until then, if he could come to the house and eat a meal cooked by his mother, he would be satisfied. ”
Shirley looked at Anna's serious expression and said, "I'm suddenly very interested in you, it's better for you to follow me in the future, at least in the imperial capital, no one dares to bully you."
The stinky boy will be back in a few days, and he can't count on these self-righteous men. ”
