The Witcher: Make Witcher Great Again

Chapter 180 It's Over

Bang!
Amidst the flying wood chips, he stabbed the opponent off his horse.

This is the difference that Master Riding brings.

Normally, if these knights were to fight on foot, they would not be able to last more than half a minute against him in a one-on-one situation.

But if it turns into a horse-riding battle, these knights with superb riding skills can easily defeat him.

After all, although most demon hunters can ride horses, at best they can only serve as a means of transportation, and are far from meeting the standards for mounted combat.

But after Lynn mastered his riding skills to the master level, he was like a veteran who had been on horseback for decades.

Not only can you easily control the warhorse under your crotch, but you can also instantly judge the horse's physical condition, control and switch the horse's different paces, and adjust the accuracy of the lance charge, the angle of the shield defense, and so on...

All of the above would have been impossible to achieve without decades of fighting on the battlefield and hundreds or even thousands of battles.

But after Lynn taught him master-level riding techniques, everything became possible.

After the game, the Winged Helmet Knight came up to shake hands with Lynn and congratulated him from the bottom of his heart.

The people in the stands around were cheering like thunder.

It was a cheer for Lynn's victory, but also a celebration of the Winged Helmet Knight's magnanimous spirit.

The spear competition that lasted for the next two days eliminated some people.

The remaining people started the team competition.

Form a team of five and fight each other.

To avoid bloodshed, only unopened training swords can be used.

When Lin En matched up with his teammates, he noticed that they all had calluses on their hands. These were not the kind that came from holding pitchforks all year round, but the kind that came from holding swords.

It seems that the next battle will not develop into a one-on-four situation.

And this is indeed the case.

Their team hardly encountered any tough battles, and each of his teammates easily defeated their respective opponents.

The team competition ends the fastest because at least five people are eliminated each time.

It only took one day for the team competition to come to an end.

Not surprisingly, the team Lin En was in won all the way to the end.

Therefore, the last battle of the day was a big melee among their team.

The companions who had fought together before became opponents who hindered their victory in the blink of an eye.

Only by defeating all opponents can you win the championship prize.

The competition venue for the team competition is the same as that for the spear competition.

The only thing they did was remove the wooden railing in the middle that was used to prevent the war horses from colliding.

The team competition has always been the highlight of the Knights' Games.

There was no physical contact in the archery competition.

Although the spear competition fits the imagination of a competition, in reality there is no such fair duel where you can win by defeating just one person.

Only in a team competition, where you drag your tired body to continue fighting, can you be closer to the real battlefield situation.

Besides, who, regardless of gender, age or status, would not like to watch a group of men fighting in the mud?
When Lin En's team entered the competition venue, the audience, who had been a little bored after watching a whole day of fighting, couldn't help but get excited.

Because they know that the champion will be born among the following five people.

You know, this year's champion prize is extraordinary. It is no longer the sword or famous horse of previous years.

But it was a manor and a large piece of land.

In other words, among the following five people, one lucky person will be born, who will be freed from the previous poverty and suffering of wandering around, and become a decent person.

Since it was the last match of the Knights' Tournament, Duchess Carloberta and all the nobles and courtiers in the palace were also present.

The Duchess looked curiously at Lynn who was preparing on the field.

Although Lynn had changed his appearance, Duchess Carolberta recognized the appearance of Lynn's new fake identity because of prior discussions.

What she didn't expect was that the demon hunter could actually make it all the way to the end of the competition.

At this moment, the Duchess noticed that the master of ceremonies looked at her with a questioning look: "Your Highness?"

She nodded at him.

Then the host announced in a loud and clear voice.

"Ladies and gentlemen, cheer for our brave warriors."

"They have come a long way, overcoming many obstacles and defeating many opponents." "Now, their only rivals are their former companions."

"Next, they will fight it out until everyone except themselves falls."

"Those who disregard virtue and resort to despicable tactics and underhanded tactics will be forever branded with the stigma of shame."

"While the contestants were preparing, I must admit it was great to see so many spectators in attendance."

"Oh, and of course, we can't forget our sponsor, Dufour Vineyards."

"To stay healthy, drink Dufo! To relieve your worries, drink Dufo!"

"Let's get started! Everyone, cheer as loud as you can! Let the blood, sweat, and tears flow all over the field!"

As the horn sounded, the last game officially began.

But Lin En frowned and found that things were not simple.

This final team match should have been a huge melee, but his former teammates turned around and surrounded him at the same time, as if they had agreed on it.

Duchess Carloberta on the platform also noticed this unusual situation.

"What does this mean? Why do I remember the last Knight Tournament wasn't like this?"

Fringilla, who was sitting next to Duchess Carloberta, chanted a spell, and her eyes suddenly bloomed with a captivating magical light.

After a while, it quietly dispersed.

"Your Highness, around their necks hang triangular hollow pendants made of gold, engraved with stars surrounded by flames."

"This is the symbol used by members of the Nilfgaard Merchants Guild to identify each other."

After hearing what Florinilla said, Duchess Carloberta seemed to have thought of something, and immediately questioned another nobleman on the podium who was also wearing a gold chain.

"Nilfgaard Merchants Guild? Lord Doug, what on earth is going on?"

Lord Doug fell to his knees.

Lord Doug is the representative of the Nilfgaard Merchants Guild in Toussaint.

This was not an instruction from his country. It was simply because he became greedy after seeing that the prize for the championship was a manor and a large piece of land.

You know, he is now just a landless nobleman, and this noble title cannot be inherited.

At his age, it would be unlikely for him to obtain a piece of land, whether in Nilfgaard or Toussaint, if he continued to work in the Merchant Guild.

That's why he took the risk.

The four contestants were mercenaries he had hired using his connections in the Merchant Guild. Their swordsmanship and skills were superior to those of ordinary people.

He promised the four that no matter who won the chicken in the end, he would pay each of them a large sum of gold fairly to ensure that they would join forces to deal with the others.

And now, the team of four mercenaries he found has successfully entered the final round, and the only opponent left is Lin En.

That's why they have to join forces to eliminate Lin En.

But Lord Doug didn't expect that his conspiracy would be discovered in the end.

"How dare you blatantly abuse your power at the Knight's Tournament? You have sullied the Knight's Tournament, sullied the five virtues of chivalry, and sullied the most sacred traditions!"

Duchess Carolberta's face became increasingly darker, and the other nobles and courtiers looked at Lord Doug without any sympathy or pity in their eyes.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

Lord Doug wanted to defend himself a few more times, but Duchess Carolberta no longer wanted to listen to him.

She just waved her hand as if to shoo away a fly.

"Guards, take him down to me."

The two knights-errant on the platform immediately carried out the order.

Lord Doug was dragged down from the platform like a dead dog.

"Fringilla, we must stop this unfair competition..."

Before Duchess Carloberta finished her words, waves of cheers rose from the audience.

The crowd went wild.

Because a new champion has been born.

The Duchess and Fringilla hurriedly looked towards the field.

But the witcher was unharmed and waved to the cheering citizens with a smile on his face.
