wHalf of the people have been eliminated in the previous individual competition, and those who are qualified to participate in the second competition are not weak. And after these people have gone through another round of screening in the riding battle, the remaining ones can be regarded as this.
This is the elite level of the selection competition.
Now Chen Rui and Paul will face such an opponent. This kind of riding battle is no better than the one-on-one duel in the first item. The contestants cannot break away from the chariot to attack, otherwise they will lose. In addition to their own strength, they must control the mount.
It is indispensable for commanding and fighting.
Within the stipulated time or when all the guns are used up, the side that hits the opponent's chariot the most times is the winner. If both sides fail to hit the opponent's chariot when the time is up, they will be eliminated at the same time.
Except for Paul, most people chose the bright knight equipped for the competition, and a small number of contestants chose to drive with their own followers. These followers should be good at riding, and because of their mutual understanding, they can cooperate more tacitly.
Paul's first opponent was a B-level warrior named Tam, who chose the Bright Knight to drive. If it was a one-on-one duel, the outcome would only take a blink of an eye, but this kind of long-range battle was completely different. First of all, the tank
It is specially made, just like magnets that repel each other, so that the two chariots can maintain a distance of about fifty meters at the nearest distance; and the magic throwing spear is also specially made, which will not cause harm to the contestants and can absorb a large amount of
The user's strength greatly reduces the speed and power of the throw, which plays a role in balancing the strength of both parties. Although there is still a difference in strength, the gap has been narrowed a lot, and the outcome has become more unpredictable.
Paul's game began in a huge circular venue. The two sides ran out of the opposite channels and began a long-range attack battle.
Each chariot has four horses. For Chen Rui, who has an analytical eye, these top-notch thoroughbred horses are much easier to communicate with than the Thunderbirds, and he quickly took full control of the driving.
The opponent knew that Paul's strength had already entered the holy level, so he had no intention of facing each other head-on. He commanded the carriage to turn around and run away, putting a distance between him and Paul. Because the time was limited, if both sides missed the shot, they would be eliminated at the same time. Of course,
No one wants to be eliminated. Therefore, one side will definitely strike first. In the rush for success, it is easy to make mistakes. In this way, he will have the opportunity to seize the loopholes to counterattack and defeat the strong with the weak.
Tamu had good combat experience and scheming, and his abacus was very good. However, as the chariot was running forward quickly, he suddenly discovered something. The opponent was gradually closing the distance, and he couldn't help but frown.
If we drive the horses at full speed now, the horsepower will be insufficient later. It seems that the opponent does not have the patience to fight a protracted battle and wants a quick victory. Taking advantage of this psychological delay, he immediately ordered: "Speed up! Keep a distance from them!"
"
The Knight of Light obeyed the instructions and urged the horses. However, although the speed of the chariot was greatly accelerated, Paul behind him was still approaching quickly, and the distance was shortened again. He was shocked and quickly shouted: "Faster!"
"Faster!"
"quick!"
The response from the Bright Knight came: "It's already the fastest!"
"Ah? No, how could they be so fast?" Tam was shocked when he saw Paul's figure standing on the chariot, holding up a magic throwing gun in his hand, and exclaimed: "Turn around now!"
However, it was too late. He saw the light flashing one after another, and Paul threw all twenty spears in an instant. The golden spears were arranged in a continuous arc. For a moment, Tam felt that his vision seemed to be slowed down.
He came down, and in the blink of an eye, everything sped up dozens of times. Before he could react, the sound of bombings came from the tank one after another.
All twenty shots hit, none missed, and Tam was eliminated.
After losing, Tam's first reaction was to appeal and question Paul's horse speed. After careful inspection, the examiner unanimously ruled that the horses on both sides were the same and no manipulation was done. The reason why Paul's horse was able to perform at super speed was because
It's because the driver has demonstrated superb skills in controlling the beast.
This episode of complaint brought the originally inconspicuous Chen Rui into the attention of the contestants. Everyone knew that Paul had a follower who was proficient in animal control. In the following competition, Chen Rui perfectly interpreted
He received the examiner's assessment that his animal control skills were "excellent" and he shined brilliantly.
The most eye-catching battle took place in the semi-finals, between Paul and Stanwell.
Stanwell's strength is close to the peak of the Demon King. He is the champion of the first individual battle. He easily defeated Paul in the final stage of the individual battle. However, in the riding battle, when he met his defeated opponent again, he encountered an extraordinary opponent.
expected results.
Due to the characteristics of gun throwing, the strength gap between the two sides was narrowed. After a dazzling long-range battle, Paul and Stanwell each hit each other seven times. On the surface, the results were equal, and Paul's seventh shot was still
Before Stanwell, there is a time advantage, but Stanwell still has five shooting guns in his hand, and Paul has no guns. As long as Stanwell shoots Paul, Paul can be eliminated.
Just when Stanwell, who thought he had a chance to win, launched an attack, Paul's chariot suddenly made incredible moves, dodging in an S-shaped Z-shape, braking suddenly, and even "drifting" as never before...
...In a series of incredible moves, all five of Stanwell's shots failed. The final result was 7 to 7. Since Paul hit the target before Stanwell, Stanwell was eliminated.
This battle was a sensation in the audience, and almost everyone was talking about the amazing moves of the chariot and the wonderful beast-controlling skills of "Richard". On the second day, there was not much suspense in the finals, because of Paul's advantage
It's so obvious. You only need to focus on attacking. As for driving or commanding, your most capable follower "Richard" will take care of it.
In this way, Paul won the first place in the second riding competition. The top three will be listed as seed players and directly enter the finals of the third team battle. After the elimination of the first two competitions, the third
There are only forty-eight participants in total, and a group round-robin competition is adopted. Paul only needs to win once to become one of the final twenty winners. The title of Temple Knight is almost certain.
After Paul won the riding championship, he immediately received an olive branch from the Palace of Divine Seals and the Palace of Stars. If it were before going to Garden City, Paul would still be hesitant about which faction to join, but now he has chosen
In the Palace of the Holy Families, I met the saint again. If I kept half-hearted, I would not be pleased with both parties. I did not hesitate at the moment and declined them one by one.
In the afternoon, the Saint summoned Paul and Chen Rui again. This time, it was not Eliza who took them up the mountain, but the half-elf Miranda. Because of the cheating elf story, in order to avoid "being called" a gay, Chen Rui
Rui had no choice but to show great enthusiasm for Miranda. Fortunately, the half-elf lady seemed to dislike "Richard" so much that she ignored all the solicitude. Chen Rui just cooperated and showed an "embarrassed" look. Paul saw it.
Here, thinking that he was rejected by Joanna in the same way, the depression hidden in his heart felt inexplicably relieved, and he patted the frustrated follower comfortingly.
After passing the weird angel statue, several people entered the Holy Family Hall, and Chen Rui met Saint Eudora again.
"Miranda, you go down first." Eudora said lightly, Miranda bowed and stepped back. Although Chen Rui lowered his head respectfully, he secretly glanced at the leaving beauty from the corner of his eye.
The back view controls the heartbeat a little too fast.
Eudora saw this scene in her eyes, her blue eyes flashed with a faint light, and she said: "Paul, congratulations on winning the championship of riding battle. Now you are only one step away from the temple knights, but don't relax later, if
Yes, I hope you can win the final championship this time, which will also be the glory of the Holy Family Palace, or you can also get the attention and appreciation of a certain adult."
At the last sentence, Paul was overjoyed and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I will definitely try my best to win."
Compared with individual battles and cavalry battles, the final team battle tests command. As commanders, contestants are not allowed to fight in person, so opponents with super personal strength such as Stanwell cannot display their strength, and Paul is very confident about himself.
I still have considerable confidence in my military strategy.
Eudora nodded approvingly and asked: "Did you give that thing to your teacher last time? Did he say anything?"
"I have handed it over to the teacher according to Your Majesty's instructions. The teacher seemed to be deep in thought and asked me if I had made a decision. I said yes." Paul lowered his head and took out a bottle: "The teacher has something
He didn’t say much, he just took out another thing for me to hand over to His Majesty, and also brought a sentence saying...we owe nothing to each other."
Eudora pondered for a moment, then waved, and the bottle flew into her hand: "I understand, you go back first. Richard, you stay."
Paul was a little surprised that the saint asked Chen Rui to stay alone, but instead of asking more questions, he bowed and left.
After Paul left, Eudora slowly walked up to Chen Rui: "Richard, is this your real name?"
Chen Rui didn't know what Eudora's purpose was in leaving him alone. He thought quickly and replied: "Your Majesty, frankly speaking, this is not my real name, it is just one of the many names I have used. I
I came from a big family in a kingdom and was forced to leave due to failure in certain battles. I once swore a vow that I would be just an ordinary wanderer until I took back what belongs to me."
"So you chose Paul and wanted to use his power to take back everything?"
"Yes." Chen Rui knew that Eudora must have investigated his details, and "Richard" was a blank slate before Gudan Town, so he deliberately said that "Richard" was just one of the aliases he used.
"I see. Strictly speaking, you are a person of unknown origin, but judging from what you just said, both your mood and heartbeat are very stable. There are only two possibilities. First, you are telling the truth.
Second, you have an extremely terrifying mind and strength, and can deceive my senses." Eudora said, her eyes falling on Chen Rui's face.
Chen Rui secretly praised the risk. Fortunately, he had used his mental power to deliberately control his mood swings. He immediately put on a look of surprise on his face, and then said with a wry smile: "If possible, I would rather be the second one."
Eudora smiled slightly behind her veil: "As long as you join the Palace of the Holy Families and help me complete one thing, I will satisfy any three of your requirements. Whether you want to be strong, have power or anything else, you will not be able to do anything.
It would be a dream.” (To be continued)m
