Chapter 2443 Knight’s Joust (Part 2)
Dong-dong-dong——
Drums sounded, Sere held his spear tightly, the brain wave link was not as sensitive as the neural link, but he still You can feel the weight of the rifle in your hand.
With the rapid pumping of the joints of his legs, he drove his steel horse to rush towards his opponent, who also came quickly.
At that moment, when the two knights were approaching each other, Sere made a subtle adjustment, lowering the height of the spear tip and making the angle of the shield wider.
With a bang, the opponent's spear hit his shield hard, and the huge force almost knocked him sideways. However, Sere's spear accurately hit the gap between the opponent's shield and arm, and stabbed him in the cockpit. The position diagonally below was enough to win -
"Huh?"
The spears of both sides were broken. Sere saw the current, but the other side did not stop.
Then Gonzalo's mecha slammed into him with its momentum. Amidst the huge metal collision, people in the audience screamed and stood up.
Soshyan narrowed his eyes and glanced at Mathias, and the High King also frowned.
Sere tried hard to control the machine. He was almost knocked over by the impact. Fortunately, he took a step back at the last moment and was able to resist the opponent, but one arm was restricted.
Suddenly, the cockpits of the two people were almost touching each other. Serre could see Gonzalo staring at him fiercely, with murderous intent on his face, and his lips moving slightly, which might be a curse or a curse. curse.
Then there was a click, and a short sword protruded from the right arm of the Gonzalo mecha, and it struck directly towards Sere's cockpit.
Sere did not panic. He suddenly raised his left arm and slapped the side of the opponent's machine with his shield. The dagger just wiped out a string of sparks on his mecha shell, and then his right arm A dagger also popped out and struck at the opponent at an extremely fast speed.
Gonzalo immediately tried to block with his shield, but Serre used his dagger to chisel the opponent's arm joints, and instantly broke the hydraulic pipe.
In the splashed black liquid, Gonzalo's mecha staggered back like an injured drunkard. Serre chased forward and slapped the opponent's cockpit with his shield. Gonzalo tried to resist with his sword, but His mecha was like a loose toy at this time, unable to exert much power at all. Sere casually cut off his right arm holding the sword, and then knocked the opponent over with his shoulder.
When Sere raised his sword, Ofuor stood up immediately in his seat.
“Stop!”
However, his voice was directly drowned by the roar of the crowd. Serre’s sword stabbed directly into Gonzalo’s cockpit, and the tip of the sword penetrated and was hit by the shield. Cracked glass.
The crowd screamed and Mathias stood up.
"What's the hurry."
Soshiyang's slow voice interrupted what the High King was about to say. Mathias turned around. Soshiyang supported his head with his fist and watched the competition with interest. field.
"The man is not dead yet."
When Cere slowly pulled out the sword, everyone saw that there was no blood on the tip of the sword.
“The outcome has been decided!”
The referee raised the colorful flag and the crowd cheered. Serey walked to the viewing platform to salute Soshyan, while many attendants rushed to the mecha that fell on the ground, and hurriedly opened the cockpit and pulled out the unconscious Gong inside. Salo carried it out.
"The winner is——"
The referee was about to announce the verdict when a voice interrupted him.
"It is against the rules of the knights to attack a fallen opponent! The offender cannot be the winner, and this game can only be considered a draw!"
The speaker was O'Full, who could be seen with the naked eye. He was so angry that the blood vessels in his neck bulged.
Barris, who was sitting on the other side, frowned. His wife immediately tugged on his sleeve, but he still did not stand up to speak.
"The High King."
Ofur turned to look at Mathias, but first he saw Soshyan sitting up straight and looking at himself, so he softened his tone. .
“Follow the rules.”
“Offor.”
Soshiyang spoke slowly, and many people turned their heads carefully, watching the development of the situation cautiously. "Your son's current condition is not suitable for being a knight. Let's do this. Considering my relationship with the Dupont delin family, your son will first go to the White Templars to train for a period of time. After about ten years, he will be determined He is already qualified to become a knight, and he can return to his family and hold the qualification ceremony."
Many opened their mouths in surprise, including Ofal.
"Sir, the training is"
"Let him stay away from his family and servants, and be a servant of the war group for a period of time. Don't worry, he will not be allowed to go to the bottom deck, just to sharpen his Mind, you can trust the Chapter Astartes, it is the best whetstone.”
"Ah!?"
Ofuor was shocked, and even Mathias' expression became a little stunned.
Aufur reacted after a few seconds and said in a very urgent voice:
"Sir, the dog is still young, can you..."
"That's it. It’s decided.”
Soshyan's words were light, but there was no room for refutation. Ofuer looked at Mathias for help, but the other person closed his eyes.
At this moment, he finally understood that no matter what "status" they once had, they were nothing in front of this person. Everything they had now could be completely taken away by the other person with just one sentence, without any excuses. , and does not require any explanation. The authority of all this does not come from the so-called favor or affection in the past.
The other party's authority comes from the fact that they are the Emperor's Angels of Death, from the powerful fleet in orbit that can destroy the world in an instant, from the nearly a thousand Astartes who can descend on the world with rain of fire at any time, from They only need a few breaths to kill everyone present.
This is something more convincing than any language.
“Go ahead.”
When Ofuer sat back in his chair in despair, the game continued.
In the subsequent games, Serre performed bravely and eliminated all his opponents round by round. Finally, in the finals, he had to face Fitzpatrick, the second son of the High King and Andrea's younger brother.
And Soshyan noticed that Barris quietly left his seat before the game started.
"Father? Why are you here?"
Just now As Cere was about to leave the preparation room, he looked very surprised when he saw his father standing at the exit.
"What are you doing?"
Barris's expression was a little complicated. After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward and patted his son on the shoulder.
"You're not injured."
"Father, what are you talking about? If you are injured, there will be a medical officer to deal with it."
"Ah, yes."
"Father, do you have something to tell me?"
"I"
Barris opened his mouth, but saw the explosive bomb that Cere hung on his waist. As he hung the pendant, his expression suddenly changed to one of guilt and self-loathing.
After a moment, he asked in a low voice:
"Son, is this championship important to you?"
Faced with his father's almost bizarre question, Sere replied without thinking:
"It's very important. There is no knight who doesn't desire glory, and I hope to bring my glory to my parents." "
Barris was stunned for a moment, then nodded and turned sideways.
"Go, son, go and seize your glory, I am proud of you"
Sere couldn't figure out what happened to his father suddenly for a moment, but the trumpet outside Sheng Zheng urged the players to get into position, and he quickly ran out of the exit.
".Father, I am a son who brings shame to you."
Suddenly, Sere turned his head as if he heard something, and vaguely saw his father leaning against the wall, covering his face with his hands.
