The competition events of the knights' conference are very simple, with only three: lance competition, knights' melee, and knights' jousting.
The lance contest has been mentioned before, so I won’t go into details here. The knight contest is also very simple. It is a one-on-one challenge between two knights. The most interesting one is the knight melee. The rules of the knight melee are quite simple and rough.
It is a group fight, with no limit on the number of people. Just randomly divide into two teams to collide and confront each other with blunt objects. The winner of the game is the last person standing on the field.
However, in order to concentrate on participating in the final lance competition, many knights will not participate in the melee. If they are injured and unable to participate in the subsequent jousting, it will be a small loss but a big loss. Unless someone wants to get the title of champion knight and the high melee prize money.
The Knight Melee is perhaps the most lively competition among the three events, so it is also the most popular among the public, because in this competition, winning requires not only strength, courage, wisdom, but also luck!
That's right, it's luck. In a knight melee, the strongest knight may not necessarily win, but many mediocre knights have a chance to win in one fell swoop. In short, there are many unexpected factors, so it seems to be ups and downs, and the people like this.
kind of scene.
Therefore, the prize money for the Cavaliers Melee is also the highest. This makes many knights who want to make a fortune but do not have the confidence to stand out in the other two competitions choose to participate in the Knight Melee.
In addition to these knights, there is another type of knight who will participate in the melee, and that is the guy who is extremely confident in himself and thinks he can become a champion knight.
The Champion Knight of the Knights Conference is a very special title. This title does not refer to the champion of any event, but only knights who have won three championships at the same time are eligible to receive this title.
This is also the reason why after Kai won the title of Champion Knight in one fell swoop, some people predicted that Kai would most likely become the number one knight in each country in the future.
Although it is difficult to be the winner of one competition, it is not uncommon for someone to win every year. However, it is extremely rare for people to win three consecutive championships. At least in King Uther, who has held so many world knight conferences, it is really possible to win.
Kai is the only one who holds the title of Champion Knight.
After all, there are too many accidents that may happen in these three competitions. Once there is a problem in one link, it is likely to result in nothing.
Not many people dared to do this before, but since Kai accomplished this feat, many rookies have begun to imitate Kai's feat, hoping to copy Kai's feat and become famous all over the world.
Not to mention, there are some people who almost succeeded. For example, Knight Perino almost succeeded back then. Even though Knight Perino was very low-key in the knights, he was also a passionate man back then. He was in Queen Cai
At the knight's convention that he participated in, he had already won the knight's jousting championship, leaving only two championships in the lance competition and the knight's melee.
Because the final of the lance competition was the highlight, it was placed on the last day of the Knights Conference. The Cavaliers melee was on the penultimate day of the Knights Conference. As a result, in the Cavaliers melee, although Perino won the championship, he was
He was also injured. On the last day of the finals, although he made it to the final victory, he still lost because his body could not support it.
This is also the closest person to a champion knight after Kai.
In short, with these two role models, young knights who want to win the title of Champion Knight have more and more opportunities every year. This time there are many, and Arthur also comes here for the title this time. But privately
, neither Kai nor King Uther have high expectations for this. Their psychological bottom line is that Arthur must win a competition.
…
Accompanied by cheers from the audience, Arthur's first game soon began.
According to the tradition of the Knights Conference, the first and last games are jousting contests.
Arthur sat on the horse, arranged his full body armor, and slapped his dragon crest shield hard. After feeling that the shield was tied very tightly, he put on his helmet. Then he took a pole from Merlin.
A competition knight's gun over four meters long.
This kind of knight's lance is made of cork and decorated with gorgeous patterns. The tip is specially made into a ball and wrapped in cloth. Once this kind of lance hits the enemy, it will break immediately. Of course, this
This is not to say that this kind of lance has no lethality. On the contrary, knights die every year because of internal bleeding due to being stabbed in the breastplate. Its lethality is only lower than that of lances used on the battlefield.
The lances used in war are all equipped with a sharp metal cone on a long rod head of about two meters. The hardwood gun body has a hand guard at the hand position and a weighted wooden cone at the rear. At the same time,
A "butt hole" is made on the saddle to absorb the impact of an assassination during a charge. This weapon is specially designed to fight against heavily armored units. Once stabbed by this weapon, it is normal for both men and horses to be pierced.
Arthur grasped the handle of the gun behind the huge guard, began to adjust his breathing, and carefully observed his opponent with his eyes through the gap in his helmet.
As the gong of the competition was sounded, the two horses began to accelerate towards each other, accelerate, impact! Shoot the gun!! Sprint!!!
In the center of the arena, two war horses passed each other at high speed.
"bump!"
After a loud noise, Arthur's lance accurately dodged the opponent's shield and hit the opponent's breastplate first. The opponent almost flew into the air from the horse, and then fell heavily to the ground, stirring up dust all over the sky.
, rolled several times before stopping, leaving a deep groove on the ground.
Arthur had already reached the end of the track at this time. He turned his horse's head and saw his motionless opponent on the ground. He immediately raised the lance in his hand and cheered for his victory. Arthur had reason to be happy. Watch the lance competition.
It sounds very simple. In fact, this competition is the most comprehensive test of the knight's overall quality. The lance competition requires the knights to have superb equestrian coordination, stable hands and amazing accuracy, and most importantly, a strong psychological quality.
After all, when charging face to face with the enemy, if you don't have a good attitude, you may retreat at any time and become timid.
Once there is a problem with the mentality, the movements may be deformed at any time, and the consequences will be very serious. You may be injured or killed at any time. Every lance competition is not only an all-round competition between knights, but also a battle with death.
Competition, so any victory in a lance competition is worthy of cheering.
The people of Camelot were also very considerate and gave their prince the warmest cheers.
If it were an ordinary knightly contest, the people of Camelot would probably be eager to see the opponent fight for 300 rounds, so that they could enjoy watching it. But when it was their prince's turn, the people of Camelot naturally hoped that Arthur could crush him all the way.
.
When Arthur declared victory, Gaius, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately rushed into the field with a few soldiers and began to treat the unlucky guy who was knocked down. Gaius struggled to open the knight's arms.
Helmet, check to see if the knight is dead. If he is dead, there is no need to perform subsequent actions.
Fortunately, this knight's luck is not too bad. Although his breastplate has been deformed, it still protects him well. He just fell unconscious. His bones are not broken, and there are no signs of internal bleeding. He just needs to rest and observe.
After a while, you can go back. People in this era are in good health. If it had been in Kai's previous life, not to mention the impact on the chest, even the impact of falling off the horse could kill half of a person's life.
