Chapter 1057 Sword Crazy
Same day
Game time AM12:48
Academy City Central District, No. 15 Shuilin Street, underground third floor of Holy Lance Knight Academy, VIP guest In front of the room
The dean of the Paladin Knight Academy and Knight Lord Hopkins Leon, who had been standing at the door for a long time, took a deep breath and tapped twice on the door in front of him, which was made of excellent materials. The luxurious golden mahogany door.
"Who?"
A lazy and slightly childish voice came from the door.
“Hopkins.”
Hopkins, who is over 90 years old this year and is the same generation as Marla, frowned, obviously not dissatisfied with the nonsense of the person in the door. The inquiry was a bit unpleasant. After all, both of them knew very well that there were only a few people who had the authority to go down to this floor at this time, and the only one who knew that there was someone in one of the VIP rooms was Hopkins.
"Enter."
It was still a one-word answer, but it seemed to be easy to talk to.
So, Hopkins pushed open the door and walked into this veritable VIP room.
Different from the 'second-class dormitory' of the Paladin Knight Academy, which is almost a cold stone prison, this VIP room is extremely luxurious in terms of size and decoration. Even it is comparable to the most luxurious suite in Liuli Pavilion under the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce. It's not even a concession, it's even better.
Expensive murals, swaying magic lanterns, warm and soft carpets, expensive incense, artistic fireplaces, long tables filled with exquisite snacks, and...
A girl with long white hair as white as snow, quietly kneeling on the cushion beside the fireplace.
She looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. She was wearing a standard robe that symbolized her status as a 'senior special student of the Paladin Academy'. Her eyes were closed, her eyelashes were very long, and a handful of linen bandages hung on her back. The tightly wrapped long sword looked a bit nondescript.
The reason is very simple. On the one hand, this girl is wearing the student robe used for daily lectures at the Paladin Knight Academy, instead of the standard knight armor for actual combat and training. The uniform robe + long sword looks natural. It will be slightly inconsistent.
On the other hand, the long sword behind this girl looks a bit nondescript no matter how you look at it. It doesn't matter if the bandage wrapped around the sword is used as a 'sheath'. The length of the sword No matter how you look at it, it is far larger than an ordinary one-handed sword, but its width is much narrower than an ordinary heavy sword, great sword or broad-bladed sword.
All in all, both the people and the weapons feel very strange.
“Are you still used to living here?”
Hopkins gently closed the door, walked slowly to the other side of the fireplace, and asked the girl who seemed to be asleep, "If you need anything else, just tell me and I will find someone to arrange it."
"No need, Mr. Hopkins."
The girl did not open her eyes, she just shook her head and said: "I am very satisfied with this room, and I have been very comfortable during this time. , there is nothing more needed."
Hopkins nodded noncommittally: "Is that so?"
"Yes, not to mention...I don't want to be here either. I owe you more favors when I have to pay them back soon.”
The girl said lightly, raised her little hand and gently wiped it from the hilt of the sword on her shoulder, and asked casually: "So, you have completed the procedures for me? When will you start?"
Huo Pugins shook his head with a complicated expression and sighed softly: "In fact, There was a little mistake in our plan, so..."
"So what?"
The girl frowned, then slowly opened her eyes, and used the pair of The clear silver-gray eyes looked at Hopkins and tilted his head curiously.
Although there is a sense of youthfulness in both appearance and figure, no matter how picky you are, you have to admit that this Bai Changzhi is a very cute human girl.
"Only the admission procedures have been completed."
Hopkins took a deep breath, tapped the outer edge of the fireplace and said: "As for the registration for the [Individual Competition] and [Team Competition]...all Stuck. "
The girl said 'Oh', nodded slightly and stopped talking.
"Miss Mu."
The dean frowned in displeasure and said in a slightly lower voice: "Don't you have anything else to say?"< br>
The girl called Miss Mu answered without thinking: "No."
"But we agreed before..."
"Yes, I did promise you Try your best to help win the championship of [Individual Competition] and [Team Competition], but if you can’t participate because you failed to register, you can’t blame me even if you can’t fulfill your promise?”
“That being said, but ..."
"But what?"
"Oh...it's nothing."
Hopkins hesitated for a moment, and finally swallowed the second half of the sentence, and then said seriously: "All in all, it seems that my reputation as the dean is not big enough. , so if you want to ensure that you participate, I'm afraid you have to convince some extra people."
The girl nodded with interest: "Oh, come on, then."
" And the way to convince them is to prove that you are much better than the 'killer' chosen by those idiots."
Hopkins unconsciously raised his voice and gritted his teeth: "I really can't figure it out. Why can they still have so much confidence when they have clearly reached a gambling agreement with the White Oath Academy and the Diesel family!”
'Miss Mu' slowly took off the long sword wrapped in bandages from her back and placed it across her knees. While gently stroking the sword blade under the bandage with her index finger, she asked casually: "So what do you mean? What does 'proof' mean? ”
“A game, the place is the training ground, the time is now.”
A stern look flashed in Hopkins's eyes, and he said solemnly to 'Miss Mu' in front of him: "Let those wastes with high ambitions and low hands see why I put everything on you."
“Not interested.”
“Two thousand gold coins.”
"Let's go."
......
Twenty minutes later
Hopkins and 'Miss Mu' appeared behind the auditorium on the first floor of the Paladin Academy In the large training ground, the former nodded to the dozen or so people in the audience, that is, the management staff of the Holy Spear Academy except him, and then The knight ignored the curious, disdainful, confused, or angry glances, walked straight to the center of the field, and gave a perfunctory salute to the two dozen young knights in front of him who were almost armed to the teeth. He also said casually: "Sorry, it was a good fight."
"What do you mean!"
An orc knight wearing heavy black iron plate armor, like an iron can, became popular at that time.
As a result, this 'Miss Mu' just stood there with her eyes downcast, paying no attention to him at all. "Well, little sister, are you the 'winning card' that the dean said?"
The blond half-orc female knight with a pair of pointed rabbit ears on her head blinked. , reminded in a soft voice: "Well, why don't you change into a set of knight armor first? The uniform has no defensive power. If you accidentally get hurt..."
Perhaps you found that the other party was completely Without answering her, the bunny girl's voice (seventh grade) became lower and lower, and finally she closed her mouth in aggrieved tone.
From the analysis of the twenty-odd people around her who suddenly became very unfriendly, it can be seen that this 'Miss Mu', who is extremely indifferent in both expression and attitude, has stabilized her hatred.
On the other side, a dozen people, led by the two vice-presidents of the Paladin Academy, also invariably focused their attention on Hopkins, their eyes full of doubts and questions.
“You’re worried that I’m playing some tricks and trying to hold back your carefully selected elites, right?”
In most cases, I’m only responsible for administrative outreach. Regarding matters related to this aspect, the dean, whose own strength is actually not that outstanding, snorted coldly and looked at those present. These are basically no less powerful than myself, and a few of them are even sure to beat my 'colleagues', and they say in a deep voice: "Then I won't talk nonsense, let you witness with your own eyes what the gap is."
"Your Excellency, the dean, you are worrying too much. In fact, we are just..."
A quasi-great lord with a half-legendary level, one of the vice-presidents of the Paladin Knight Academy smiled dryly and tried to smooth things over, but was ignored by Hopkins gracefully.
“Let’s do it, boys and girls, don’t worry if I hurt the human girl in front of you, I will take revenge on you. As long as you can defeat her, no matter how you defeat her, I will become the principal of the academy. In the name of giving you an additional 100 credits or an equivalent amount of resources."
Hopkins strode to the edge of the field, calmly glanced at the 'Miss Mu' in the center of the field, and casually handed over a hand. A gold coin bounced into the air: "It doesn't matter if you can fight her alone, on wheels, or in a swarm. Use all the methods you can think of to defeat her."
The next moment, the more than 20 students in the venue were almost At the same time, they let out a roar, bursts of surging energy burst out from their bodies, and then started a dazzling interspersed movement at the same time, and in just two seconds, they formed a circle with 'Miss Mu' as the center. A circle.
Immediately afterwards, the tall orc man with a somewhat fiery temper roared, rushed out the moment Hopkins' gold coin hit the ground, and crashed straight into the man standing quietly a few meters away. white-haired girl.
A moment later——
Except for Hopkins, the pupils of everyone in the spectator seats shrank suddenly!
The charge of the orc knight was contained, just a second before the battle ax in his hand was about to fall on the girl.
It's not that he is pity for her, nor is it because this orc is a white-haired man. In fact, he just simply can't move forward.
Because on his chest, to be precise on the breastplate where the heart is located, there was a cut mark that was so subtle that it was almost impossible to detect it with the naked eye.
A precise cut opened the heavy plate armor, pierced the leather lining at the same position, and scratched the last layer of close-fitting clothing, but did not leave the slightest trace of slash marks on his skin.
However, despite this, this powerful orc man still felt a biting chill blowing from his heart, and then disappeared like an hallucination.
He lowered his head stiffly and saw the crack on his breastplate. Then he raised his head with more difficulty and stared blankly at the white-haired girl in front of him who was still standing quietly.
Her only weapon, the excessively long sword, still hangs motionlessly on her back. The only difference is that the linen originally tied to it fell to the ground at some point, leaving only the sword wrapped around it. The part on the handle is still hanging firmly there.
"You..."
Swallowing hard, the ashen-faced orc knight looked at the girl in front of him with a calm expression in horror, and asked in a trembling voice: "What did you do?"
"I swung my sword. "
'Miss Mu' gave the answer lightly, and then seemed to think that what she said was not very specific, so she added: "To you."
"What...what. Sword? "
The battle ax in the hand of the orc knight dropped silently.
"What sword?"
The girl tilted her head and repeated, then pointed to the silver-white, plain-looking long sword behind her back and replied: "This sword."
"This sword is obviously still hanging on your back!"
"Well, because I have finished swinging it, I put it away."
"Put it away... Put it away!”
"Well, put it away."
The girl nodded seriously, then moved her eyes away from the face of the ashen-faced orc knight in front of her, and looked at the splendid-looking Paladin knights around her. The academy elite asked: "Who is next?"
No one answered, and there was only a dead silence in the center of the training ground.
Although the Orc Knight, who has obviously lost his will to fight, is not the strongest among this group of people, his strength and reaction speed can still be firmly ranked in the top ten. Although no one sees it, Although they knew the process clearly, these students with sound intelligence could still reconstruct what the girl had just done from the conversation between the two.
She swung her sword and then put it back.
Then, the college student who didn't have any obvious injuries on his body lost his will to fight, and he just stood there as if he had lost his soul.
These people are all top students among top students, so they understand the seriousness of the matter better. In other words, no one dares to go up and continue to 'learn' before they understand what just happened. .
The scene suddenly cooled down.
It wasn’t until exactly half a minute later that the half-orc female knight of the rabbit tribe who was going to graduate next year struggled to pull out her two decorative long swords that looked very much like the ones that nobles from all over the world like to wear. He picked up a weapon and gritted his teeth and said: "Everyone, let's go together. Didn't the dean just say it? It doesn't matter even if we swarm us, we..."
She could not continue to say it, because originally An The long sword that was hung securely on the back of Miss Mu had been quietly placed on the side of her neck, bringing with it a biting chill.
"You'd better move faster."
The sword master who also appeared behind the female knight of the rabbit clan sighed, wrinkled his nose with a troubled expression and muttered: "Why does this also give you experience? ...Really, I still haven't suppressed it after all... That's why I don't want to draw the sword casually..."
Clang!
The weapon that had just been pulled out fell to the ground feebly, and the tall female knight of the rabbit clan fell to her knees in despair, losing all her will to fight.
It was only then that the figure of the girl who was originally standing in the middle of the encirclement... or rather an afterimage, slowly disappeared into the air.
...
At the same time
In the Innocent Realm personal combat power rankings, on the homepage of the real-time list in public space, a name that was originally listed in the third to last seat suddenly jumped up. 6——
