Chapter 157: 156 invalid silence
Chapter 157 156. Ineffective silencing
After the two combatants paid their respects in front of the king, they turned their heads and separated.
Gregor Clegane is not only able to achieve his current popularity because of his extremely talented body.
When he drove the horse to the reserved position for the competition, Lan En could see that this guy's riding skills were also quite impressive.
Compared to the famous [Magic Mountain], Sir Hugh is like a monkey riding a dog.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
No one expressed optimism about his game.
But at the same time, no one expected that the accident on the competition field would happen so suddenly.
*2
Horses neighed, and the two men, who were quite different in size, charged at each other.
The hoofs of the war horses stirred up the mud and weeds on the ground, and the sound of treading on the ground was like the beating of people's hearts in their chests.
The tips of the lances of both men were trembling with the ups and downs of the horses, making it difficult for the other party to know exactly where to stab.
For knights who charge with a lance, the game of lance placement and shield parry is also a necessary skill.
At the moment when the two of them crossed paths, Gregor's horse was just at the moment when its front hooves were on the ground and its center of gravity shifted downwards.
Xiu Fu instinctively moved the shield on his off-hand downwards to protect his upper body and chest.
This area is the largest, and it is also the most suitable attack position relative to Gregor's state.
But Lan En, who was watching the game in the audience, had superhuman motor skills that made him frown at this moment.
The horses center of gravity dropped, but his own center of gravity was leaning back on the horse. The target of the lance was on top!
Just as Lan En predicted, the dark-coated wooden lance looked like a python coming out of its hole!
As the cultivator's shield was moving down, it just brushed against the edge and stabbed toward the throat!
The armor plate at the gorget is the weakest part of the armor, because the twisting angle of the neck itself must be fully taken into account.
It is true that the competition lance is a fragile wooden product. But under normal circumstances, that requires the lance to explode when it hits the thick body armor of the knights, dissipating the impact.
The gorget armor was directly pierced in this case!
After a moment of passing, the horses of [Magic Mountain] rushed all the way to the end of the track without stopping.
The monk fell off his horse just in front of the high platform where the king was.
His armored body hit the dirt road hard, with a palm-long wooden thorn stuck in his throat.
He used his riding skills to successfully stab the tower-like Gregor Clegane.
The cheers of the mountain roared like a tsunami, and the victory of the glorious and handsome knight always made people happier than the victory of the [Magic Mountain].
Then the tall giant raised his hand and pulled off his helmet, drew his sword like chopping firewood, and cut off more than half of his mount's thick neck!
The thick horse's neck was only connected to the lower layer of flesh when it fell to the ground.
This was not enough, he angrily slashed at the victorious Knight of Flowers.
If the [Hound Knight] beside the prince hadn't rushed down and fought with his brother for a while, the knight would probably have to answer here.
Finally, the farce ceased with the roar of the king. Todays one-day match schedule also comes to an end.
The bonfire began to be set up at the tournament venue, and the banquet began.
The adults who wanted to return to King's Landing set up their carriages and horses, preparing to take their families back.
As long as Ed closes his eyes now, he will remember the image of Xiufu being stabbed through the throat by a wooden thorn.
He has seen a real battlefield, so he doesn't care about this scene. But there are his daughters here, and he doesn't want them to stay here for even a minute longer.
"They are killing people. Do we need to see the monk's body? Ser Barristan is keeping vigil over him, and no one can touch him."
Ed rode on the horse and asked Lan En in a low voice.
Ser Barristan is a legendary figure in this world and holds the title of "Fearless".
Many years ago, in a battle called the "Battle of the Nine-Copper King," he charged directly into the enemy's formation and killed the opponent's generals, ending the war.
His bravery and integrity have been sung on this continent for decades, even though now he has a flabby old man's face.
But if you ask someone in Westeros who is the strongest knight in the world, then the answer will probably be - [Fearless] Barristan.
He has simply become the benchmark and symbol of the term "knight".
"It doesn't matter whether he uses his hands or not. Xiu Fu is already worthless. His most useful things are all in his head, and we have already emptied him of that information."
Lan En pushed his silver hair away from his eyes and said calmly.
"On the contrary, he is dead now, which will make the enemy feel that they have cut off the clues and relax. The time when they relax is the time when we can most easily gain the advantage."
Now, you should find out what abnormal behavior the former Prime Minister had during his lifetime, and the resistance will be much smaller.
After thinking for a while, Ed seemed to have thought of a certain goal.
"I see."
