Glory Riding and Cutting

The princess' travel team has more than an hour to go. Ronan and the others must wait at the city gate before that.

They rode their horses all the way to the city gate. After waiting for about ten minutes, the traveling team finally walked out of the city gate.

The leader is Mario, and behind him are dozens of fully armed riders, surrounded by a large carriage, pulled by four horses, with a unique design, it seems to have a good shock absorption effect, and the whole body is made of steel. With only two windows that open inside and a door, the safety factor is high.

Bandits are not rampant in Xantlan, and the local nobles have strong control over the territory, and there are basically patrols, so there is no need for particularly many guards.

Ronan took the lead to meet him on horseback, nodded and greeted Mario, then rode his horse to the carriage window and knocked on the iron sash window.

The window opened quickly, revealing the face of a maid, Ronan smiled and said inside:

"His Royal Highness, Rodrit is nearby. If you have something to do, just tell me!"

There was Daisy's answer from the carriage, Ronan smiled and nodded with the maid, and then rode to the front of the line and walked side by side with Mario. The maid also closed the bars.

"How long are we going to go?" The team started to set off, Ronan turned to ask Mario next to him.

"About more than a week, if there is no delay."

"There are still three weeks left for the competition. What are we doing so early?"

"Stupid you, how can there be only a competition, when the dance, hunting and other things are indispensable, and the nobles will also take this opportunity to visit each other.

Moreover, this time the Marquis of Langu intends to marry a daughter, and many people are staring at him. "

"Is this Marquis of Blue Valley so strong?" Ronan was a little curious.

"The Marquis of Blue Valley has the largest iron ore in Xantran, and the Blue Valley family has a long heritage and is one of Xantlan's original founding nobles.

The most important thing is that the Marquis of Blue Valley sits on Dunling, the largest city in the west, and controls half of the economic lifeline of the west. "

"That's really powerful. Tell me about the competition. It's my first time participating, and I don't even know the rules!" Ronan changed the subject and shifted his focus to the competition.

"A competitive conference, it seems that it hasn't been held for five years. Not everyone can hold a competitive conference. Not to mention the required funds, it is not a small amount. If you don't have fame, you can only attract some small servants. Soldier adventurers and the like participate.

The mode of the competitive conference is still very interesting. All events are ranked by the organizer after statistics, and then fight according to the serial number. The two-in-one mode has been adopted. The person who wins at the end is the champion. If the number is odd, there will be someone. Bye.

The competition is not a gladiatorial fight, so there is no distinction between life and death. Individuals bring their own armor, and the weapons are uniformly provided by the official unbladed longsword.

Three points for a hit to the head, two points for a hit to the torso, one point for a hit to the limbs, and whoever gets six points first wins.

The team competition is very interesting. Everyone uses the leather armor and weapons provided by the organizer. There are no special requirements. If the opponent is driven out of the designated area or cannot stand up, they will win.

The lance competition is very simple. When the two sides ride opposite each other, they use lances to attack the opponent. Whoever falls off the horse loses. This game also has the highest casualty rate. Every time, the unfortunate person is trampled to death by a horse or his armor is pierced by a lance.

I remember a hapless man whose breastplate was dented, pressing on his chest and unable to breathe. He choked to death if the breastplate was not removed in time.

There was another unlucky guy who was stabbed in the eye by the wooden thorn when the lance was broken through the gap in the helmet. He saved his life, but he has since become a one-eyed dragon. "

Mario seemed to feel a little pain when he spoke, and blinked his eyes twice.

Along the way, Ronan asked Mario a lot of details.

Mario told Ronan that there would be many nobles to visit the princess when he arrived, and he would be busy by then.

Moreover, the Marquis of Blue Valley will definitely invite the princess and other nobles to hunt in his hunting ground.

Ronan's exploration and tracking skill points are not high, but this time, the sharpshooter speciality obtained from Yatan comes in handy.

"I heard that the Earl of Blue Valley also invited many famous mercenaries and explorers this time, including 'Poison Spider' Ike, 'Big Cat' Hua Can, 'Red-haired Ghost' Victor and so on.

Some of them are lone rangers, some are the leaders of the big mercenary group, and they are not easy to deal with. If you want to participate in the individual competition, you should pay attention to them. "

Ronan nodded and wrote down these names. In this world, there are still many strong people who are crouching tiger, hidden dragon. Some of them are because of their status, and some are because of bad luck, but they should not be underestimated.

Tiberius, the chieftain of the hill tribe that Ronan met in Slovakia, was a formidable enemy. Unfortunately, Ronan failed to fight him in the end. Ronan also guessed how much honor he was worth.

I don't think about him anymore. I'm far away from another continent. I'll tell you if I can meet him in the future.

The road this week was very calm. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com did not meet any green forest heroes, which made Ronan's idea of ​​warming up before participating in the competition shattered.

The facilities on the carriage are very complete, and there are maids to clean it, and the food is also brought into the carriage by the maids. Daisy basically didn't get out of the carriage this week.

Ronan also took the opportunity to borrow a bow from the rider of the **** team and hunted a few unlucky birds and wild deer on the road. Of course, it was not wasted. They all ended up in the stomach of Ronan and others. , It was all a snack, and Ronan was suddenly very fortunate to wear Covington, otherwise, the food they baked could only be considered edible.

Ronan asked Covington to bake the birds and sent them to Daisy in the carriage. They were used to the delicacies of mountains and seas in the palace. Occasionally, this little game also made Daisy feel very novel, and then Ronan gave them a fight. Got several.

After sleeping in the rough for more than a week, the team finally came to the largest city in the western part of the kingdom, Dunling, a huge city that was no less than Teldrassil.

The Marquis of Blue Valley knew that the princess was coming soon, so he sent his cronies to wait at the city gate every day. As soon as the team appeared, they were warmly welcomed.

Mario chatted with the receptionist of the other party, and then led the team to the mansion of Earl Blue Valley under the leadership of the other party.

Walking on horseback in this magnificent city, watching the lively vendors and crowds on the street, as well as the two or three-storey buildings and the patrolling guards appearing on the road from time to time, Ronan couldn't help but feel a little envious. A city like that.

This makes Ronan even more looking forward to the championship of this competition. After all, if there is a lot of start-up funds, Ronan's plan will not have to be limited too much, and it will save a lot of time. Maybe in a few years, Ronan will be replaced by Enough strength to return to Gaoling to seize power.
