Chapter 588: I saw the right person back then
The finals of the Real Sword Competition begin.
Stone walked onto the ring still holding the steel pipe, and a tsunami-like cheers sounded in the stands.
Being a commoner, he encountered setbacks along the way, and finally relied on his piety to reach the finals. His legendary experience made Shitou a hero in the eyes of ordinary people in a short period of time.
Ludovico was flushed with excitement in the stands.
He has written an outline of what he considers an unprecedented script based on stones, and the final outcome will be determined by the process and results of this game.
Polly and a group of butchers surrounded Adele. After the girl woke up, her body recovered quickly. At this time, she was so nervous that she tightly grasped the hem of her skirt.
The iron can quickly walked onto the ring. Some spectators were regretting that a steel pipe might not be able to break through the defense of the plate armor.
At this time, Iron Can said: "I won't take advantage of you."
This was the first time he spoke in the ring, and his voice buzzed under the helmet.
Some people thought the voice sounded familiar, including Stone.
“Bang!”
Legs, arms, and breastplates were taken off one by one and thrown outside the ring. Under the armor was a warrior uniform that looked like stone. And a strong and well-proportioned body.
The audience applauded.
When the last helmet was taken off, short white hair was revealed, and a face that looked old but not old.
Frederick heard the shouts of the Archduke of Milan in the next box, and there was a burst of exclamation from the audience.
Gunnar was dumbfounded, his mouth opened wide, and he said after a while: "Master...Riva?!"
The true identity of the tin can is from the Kingdom of Sardinia No one expected this development for Riva, one of the Sword Masters, and the entire arena was in an uproar.
Who would have thought that there would be a full-level tuba participating in this kind of competition?
Shitou was stunned for a while and asked in disbelief: "Old... old drunkard?"
Riva stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said happily: "Good boy, I was right about the person twenty years ago."
"I want to hear you call me teacher even more. You are better than those The incompetent guys are much better.”
The arena was in an uproar again, another unexpected turn.
Ludovico was so excited that he almost jumped up. It was obvious that there was an old relationship between the two of them. Riva had mentored Shitou twenty years ago, and now he admitted that he was his student. What a dramatic development this development was.
Shitou didn't know Riva's identity yet, but the kindness he had given him to teach him the art was real, so he respectfully bowed as a student and called "Teacher".
Riva patted his shoulder with satisfaction.
Gonnar had come to his senses and hurriedly asked Frederick: "Have you known this for a long time?"
These days they have been discussing the reasons for Frederick's heavy bet. A group of people calculated everything, but they didn't realize that one of them was a sword master and the other was a student of the sword master.
Frederick smiled and said: "Didn't you go to the training ground with me on the first day I came? You saw the stone at that time, and I saw his inheritance."
"Later I discovered Master Riva during the qualifying round. Although I don't know why he participated, I can't go wrong buying him to win."
Gunnar was about to cry.
The odds between Riva and Shitou were very high at the beginning, with Shitou winning at 1:20 and Riva at 1:25.
No matter who wins this game, the bookmakers have to spit out almost all the money they made from various games these days.
That’s why the Duke of Milan cursed out loud just now, because he is the banker.
On the ring, Riva said: "I had nothing to eat in the mountains a while ago, and a family member treated me to a meal, but I ran out of money. I heard there was a competition here, so I borrowed theirs. Armor and sword to make some money to pay for food.”
"Originally, I made enough money, but I saw you also participating in the competition, so I decided to compete with you."
"I heard that if you win the championship, someone will perform a handstand to have diarrhea, although I I really want to see it, but you also know that I have a bad temper and will not give up easily."
"Let's do this, I will lower myself to the same level as you, if you can do it when your fingers are tired. If you hit my torso, neck, or head before I can't move, you will win."
Shitou said very firmly: "I have promised Adele to give her the championship as a gift."< br>
“Even if my opponent is you, teacher, I will not give up.”
Riva nodded with satisfaction and said: "I just like the way you look."
In the box, Gunnar asked Frederick: "How much chance do you think Stone has of winning?"
Frederick said seriously: "Stone can win only if he breaks through himself in the battle."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the ring intently and stopped talking. Tony was also watching the game intently, rubbing his hands in excitement.
When the competition started in the ring, Riva and Shitou did not ensure a solid defense first like other players, but launched fierce attacks on each other at the same time.
There has never been such a fierce confrontation since the beginning of the game. The two people walked around the ring, and sparks of metal collision flashed in the middle.
Almost ten minutes later, Riva and Stone separated, and Gunnar dared to breathe.
"Huh..." Gunnar breathed a long sigh of relief, "I was so nervous. I thought they were going to decide the winner."
Frederick ignored him. Asked Tony next to him: "Tony, what do you think?"
Tony replied: "Judging from the warm-up, Master Riva has indeed adjusted his strength and speed to the same level as a stone."
Gunnar turned his head in disbelief and asked: "You said What? They were just warming up?"
Tony replied: "Yes, we are like this during training."
Gonnar opened his mouth, but Tony didn't look like it. Bragging, I suddenly lost confidence.
Tony said to Frederick again: "Commander, I am worried that the stone weapons will not be able to withstand the next battle."
What Shitou was holding was an ordinary steel pipe. It was already full of holes after warming up just now. It was only a matter of time before it broke.
At this time Riva said: "You go and change a good sword, I will wait for you."
Tou Shi shook his head.
He believed that this was a part of the test given to him by the God of Light, and he should not be opportunistic.
Frederick just stretched out his hand to the sword, but when he saw him shaking his head, he took it back.
The real battle begins.
There are no sparks from the collision of steel, only blood splashing.
In the blink of an eye, five wounds appeared on Shitou's body, but the blood did not affect his activities.
“Ah!” Gunnar exclaimed, “I just stabbed Master Riva!”
Frederick shook his head and said, “It’s just a hair’s length away.”
Gunnar asked in surprise: "Can you see it from so far away?"
Frederick replied: "You can tell without looking. Don't make unnecessary moves in this case."
While talking, Shitou received three more wounds.
Although these wounds were not deep, the bleeding continued, and his clothes were soon stained red.
At this time Tony said to Frederick: "Commander, I think the sword power of the stone is a bit weird."
Frederick nodded and said: "The moment that is not weird is the moment to determine the winner."
"Hiss..." Shitou's right hand holding the water pipe suddenly appeared a wound from the back of the hand to the elbow. Gunnar felt hurt for him.
Gonnar asked Frederick: "What's weird?"
Frederick replied: "If you look carefully, you can see that there is a sense of incongruity."
Gunnar was puzzled because he didn't see anything.
After half a minute, the situation on the field changed subtly.
Tony said: "The stone has stabilized the formation."
Frederick nodded and said: "The frequency of injuries has decreased, and the wounds have become shallower, but the pressure is greater."
< br>Gunnar wanted to ask why the pressure was greater to stabilize the formation, but he remembered that he had asked too many questions just now, and he would look like a fool if he asked again, so he stopped asking.
But he didn’t ask, but Frederick still reminded him: “Faith.”
Gunnar soon figured out that holding a firm position can improve one's self-confidence, but if something unexpected happens at this time, the confidence will be shattered and failure will only happen in the blink of an eye.
Frederick continued to watch the game, but one thing he did not say was that although Shitou was getting fewer and fewer injuries, the wounds were becoming more and more concentrated on the fatal points.
Tony murmured from the side: "Hurry up, grab that feeling, step over it, as long as you take that step, you are qualified to be my opponent."
Voice As soon as it fell, a gash was cut on the neck of the stone.
