She Chooses To Destroy the World

Chapter 56: Tournament (6)...

If you can't re-nail the horseshoes, you won't be able to play "awkward".

Alice never thought that this would happen. Obviously, although the knights kept talking about glory and fame all day long, their actions were no more noble than the passers-by who casually pulled over at the door. As long as no one sees them pulling out the "awkward" hoof nails with their own hands, they will always be knights of noble character.

When she first saw this situation, Alice thought it was someone trying to eliminate her opponent. But she thought about it, and quickly realized that it was not the case.

Alice was born as a mercenary, so she has no advantage at all in immediate competition. This is no secret, and all the knights who came to participate in the game knew it very well. If someone wants to lower their scores in this group, they shouldn't have targeted her. It is obviously more efficient to set the target to Kent or Philo Cavaliers.

What's more, if they just don't want her to win, they can obviously be more concealed. For example, if only a horseshoe spike is removed, Alice might not notice it at all before playing. But the horse feels uncomfortable, which may prevent her from racing smoothly.

The person who did this simply wanted her to abstain directly. This is a declaration of war, it's a blatantly blatant conspiracy.

When the word "abstain" appeared in Alice's mind, Alice thought of someone.

Is the person who did this kind of thing Arnold who abstained in the previous game?

This idea flashed past, and was immediately denied by Alice. Although Arnold seemed a little slow, he was somewhat decent, and perhaps disdain to do such a thing. As for the people who can do this kind of thing... it's not hard to guess.

The ridiculous expressions of those people at the duchess' dinner table appeared in her mind, as well as the yin and yang weirdness that appeared from time to time. People who are capable of doing such things without being noticed are probably not foreign knights, but only the familiar faces that can be seen every day. Excluding some unlikely objects, the person doing this kind of thing is nothing more than two or three people, and it can be easily locked.

Alice can probably imagine what they think.

In the eyes of those self-defeating knights, Alice was a woman and a mercenary of civilian origin. Her existence itself is equivalent to challenging the entire knight system. In the eyes of those people, this is absolutely unbearable.

Of course, no one can question the Duchess’ decision, but they can prove to people in their own way that she cannot be called a knight at all.

Immediate competition is the soul of knights. If Alice abstains and immediately competes, even if she has the title of knight, people will not treat her as a knight. Those who remove the "awkward" horseshoes are probably doing this kind of calculation. Those who did this kind of thing probably didn't think it was a behavior that violated the knight's code, maybe they thought they were defending the justice of the knight!

Alice sneered.

Don't they want her to participate in the competition? It doesn't matter, she not only has to participate, but also to get a good place in the competition, so that all knights who see her unpleasantly can only gnash their teeth in secret.

But those are things to follow, and the top priority is to get the right horses.

If the groom is here, it probably won't take much time to re-fix the shoe. But now there is no one in the stables, and the coachman probably sneaked out to watch the race. Moreover, the guy "Uncomfortable" was seen too many times with his hoof being lifted. At this time, he was a little irritable, and he was not in a state of being able to participate in the game.

Kent was with Alice at this time. Seeing this situation, he was anxious and tried his best to help Alice find a way:

"You might be able to ride Father Philo's horse. He is not here today, so I shouldn't mind."

Just like when fighting swords, because there is one more person, the old knight Philo won't come to participate until tomorrow. This is very necessary for the old knight Philo, because he has just gone from fever, and he is really not energetic enough to get on his horse to take part in the immediate martial arts competition.

Riding someone else’s horse may not be as accustomed as riding your own horse, but this is always a solution to the problem. Alice walked to the horse of Philo Knight, and I wonder if it was because of the "awkwardness" that the usually very docile horse was also a little irritable at this time. Alice put her hand on its neck, and it shook its body very unhappily, obviously rejecting her contact.

Alice looked at Kent and spread her hands innocently:

"She doesn't like me."

Kent also sighed:

"There is no way. If my'Lightning' temper is a little better, I don't mind lending it to you to ride, but Lightning doesn't like anyone. If you are not careful, you will kill you."

Kent's worries are right. Immediate competition is the most dangerous of the three links. If the knight cannot gain the trust of the mount, it is very likely that he will be overturned by his horse before the opponent's spear is poked over. This kind of tragedy may happen in almost every Cavaliers competition. The cervical spine will be broken because of the poor posture of falling from the horse. If a whole knight tournament is compared and no one is dead, then it can almost be said to be a miracle.

But at this critical juncture, where can I find a horse that can communicate with Alice? If there is no other way, Alice can only ride Philo Knight's horse. With Cecilian's help, she probably wouldn't break her neck, but it would be very difficult to rely on that horse to win.

Perhaps because Alice thought of Cecilian’s name, his voice suddenly appeared:

"Take Kent away, I can find you a horse for the race."

At this moment, to Alice, Cecilian's voice sounded like a natural sound. She quickly called Kent:

"Kent, can you go ahead and see how the game is going? I might be able to get a horse."

Although Kent was a little confused, he still agreed and trot out of the stable. Alice heard Cecilian's voice resounding again:

"Do you remember what I said before, I got the...er...mana that I'm not used to?"

Alice still remembers this, but she doesn't know why Circelian mentioned it in such an urgent situation. It was a little difficult to listen to Cecilian's words.

"Those mana actually... can turn me into a physical animal."

"So you are talking?"

"I can become a horse and let you ride on my back to participate in the competition."

Riding a horse transformed from a **** to participate in a horse competition is really a very crazy idea. But in the present situation, what else can we do if we don't do this? Alice kind of likes this idea.

"Then do it."

As soon as Alice's voice fell, a black stallion with a full saddle appeared out of thin air in the clearing outside the stable. It was tall and handsome, with a silver star on its forehead, and four white hoofs. It looks even more magnificent than the Duchess' horse. Alice touched its black satin-like horsehair, and reached out to stroke the horse's nose. Like a real horse, she leaned her face and rubbed it against Alice's face.

It is so beautiful, better than all horses that Alice has seen before. All riders will fall for it when they see it. Alice can almost imagine the guys who remove the "awkward" horseshoes and see Alice riding this. What kind of expression will the handsome black horse show when it comes on the stage.

But thinking that this horse is actually Cecilia... Alice's mood is somewhat subtle. She had imagined that when Cecilian gained enough power, she would be able to show a human-like figure. But he never thought that he was in such a posture the first time he appeared in this world.

At this moment Kent came back from the front. He was worried, and rushed towards him with his head down, before he even had time to look up.

"You better hurry up." He urged very anxiously. "They have already finished the match. Even from here, you can hear the cheers from around the arena...in ten minutes, you should be there...this Where did the horse come from?"

When he said the last sentence, Kent raised his head and stared at the horse that suddenly appeared in amazement.

"Uh...it's not easy to explain." Alice thought for a second, and decided not to make up too ridiculous nonsense to Kent, "I will tell you when I have the opportunity."

Kent curled his lips unsatisfactorily, but Alice was right. Time is running out. They should go there quickly. He still needs to help Alice wear the full armor.

Alice led the horse and went to the arena with Kent. Kent's eyes were fixed on Cecilian, and he didn't leave for a second.

"What a good horse...what's its name?"

"Huh?" Alice didn't even consider that she still needed to face this kind of problem, and almost told Circelian's real name, "Sher... Circe. Its name is Circe."

She simplified Cecilia's name to make it sound more like an animal name. Cecilia made a low neigh, seeming to accept the name reluctantly. Alice smiled secretly, then patted it on the head.

The arena is not too far from the stables, and temporary tents have been set up on both sides for the knights to rest and change armor. Generally speaking, a full set of armor needs to be replaced to participate in the immediate competition. Alice’s chain mail is too thin to bear this kind of competition. Fortunately, the Duchess generously provided her knights with the key to the armor library, allowing Alice and Kent to be able to Find the armor that fits your body as much as possible.

With the help of Kent, Alice put on a full set of armor. The armor is a bit old and a bit big. It doesn’t fit well, but that’s okay. As long as she appears on the court on Circe’s back, all spectators can’t. Disagree: She is the most heroic knight in the entire Yunji Castle.
