People in Terra, governing a weird little country

He also knew that Maria could not always be spotless, but at least, before she came of age, Maina would protect her and ward off these disgusting conspiracies.

No matter if this trick came from the Chamber of Commerce or from the Supervisory Committee, which seemed to be of the same ilk as him, a "knight noble".

The world is bustling with people all for profit. Some people pursue fame, some people pursue profit, but in Mahner's view

——What is the difference between being a slave to money and being a slave to honor?

Since there is no freedom and ease in Casimir anyway, the ranger of that time would rather be his own slave.

"So, please go back."

Maenna forcibly took Maria's hand and pulled her to her side.

"I will win, and after that, just fulfill your promise."

Chapter 399: The Excited Golden Lion vs. the Sword Master (Confirmed)

Casimir, Grand Knight Leader Kavaleriaki, Pegasus Arena.

"New friends, old friends, good morning, noon, and evening! I am your Big Mouth Mob!"

"Welcome to the second match of the International Games! I believe that you have admired many handsome athletes from various countries in the past few days! I am always curious and anxious, where is our Casimir? Yes, where is our Casimir?"

"Where are you, hero of Casimir?"

On the commentary desk, Big Mouth Mob's expression was exaggerated, and the questioning in his voice seemed to be filled with real anger and resentment.

As he questioned, the gates for the contestants to enter on both sides of the Tianma Arena slammed open!

"Yes, they are coming!"

"I believe that no matter those loyal fans who bought tickets to watch the game, or those fans who waited in front of the TV and watched every episode, they would definitely not be unfamiliar with this person's name or her appearance!"

"Yes, let us welcome the old legend of the Casimir Knight Arena, the undefeated triple champion, the natural warrior, the only black knight in the world - Mace!"

A long-lasting cheer rang out from the audience. Its volume, duration, and number of cheers were so great that even Ernst and Enthiotis, who was sitting next to him, were shocked.

Frenzy, Ernst later commented on the scene.

It was a fanaticism that even Yelagund would have to say was "a bit too extreme".

The news of the Black Knight's return in this World Games had already been leaked as an "official spoiler". But it was not until she actually walked out of the entrance, with her dark golden hair and the long-unseen black knight outfit reappearing in Casimir, that people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no need to explain the connotation of this name to Casimir. Her appearance means victory!

Afterwards, according to incomplete statistics, within fifteen minutes after the Black Knight appeared in the competition, the entire Casimir outside handicap, the bets on the Black Knight rose by more than ten percentage points in one go.

Those who suddenly joined in and increased their bets were basically those who had given up betting on the Knights after the Black Knight retired that year.

I'm afraid that if Jian herself heard this news, she would also reveal a helpless smile that was neither funny nor sad.

But now, any expression she made had to be directed at the equally golden Pegasus standing opposite her.

"Maenna Linguang."

"Tianma of the Linguang family, uncle of Knight Yao, the second son of the great war hero of Casimir - Cyril Linguang!"

"A free-spirited knight, a carefree hero, a knight who raided the enemy camp alone, and whose exploits shocked the world!"

"A part-time worker, the most powerful family hero of the Great Knight, the creator of the term 'Mabo Man', and an indispensable one among the three mythical gods of the new era!"

Different people will make different evaluations of him, not that they all know different Mainna. Mainna remains the same, he is just extraordinarily complicated.

A person can choose between country, society, family and self to achieve his goal. But Mannas is the one who always chooses family no matter when and where.

In the glorious past described by the Procuratorate, focusing only on family and not on country or society was considered narrow-minded.

However, in today's materialistic world built by business associations, focusing only on family and not on oneself and refusing to become a sophisticated egoist is considered hypocrisy.

In both eras, Mahenna was the misfit.

So, in the past, he was a ranger who challenged the secular order, did whatever he wanted, but could take up the responsibility of the family at the first opportunity. And now, he is the knight who nods and bows, is submissive, but can raise his sword to defend his family.

Even though he never acknowledged the title of "knight", he did defend his chivalry. After learning about the hardships of life, he did not hate it or please it, but reconciled with it.

Such a person is invincible.

1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds......

Even though the command to officially start the match had not yet been given at the commentary desk, Mainna's hand holding the hilt of the sword was gradually becoming familiar with the long-lost breath.

22 seconds, the fastest time he can now regain his touch.

He is not such a martial artist. Every second on the court is torture for him. He hopes that the noisy loud voice on the commentary desk will shout a few more words to buy more time for him.

But he obviously underestimated his enemy.

The Black Knight never follows any rules.

"Let us thank the Casimir Business Association and the Supervisory Council for their strong support for this competition. Thank you... eh, you guys! Ahem!"

Big Mouth Mob's voice trembled suddenly, and he looked at the black knight who had already drawn his double maces and rushed towards Mayenna, and let out a somewhat broken cry. Fortunately, his professional commentary skills came into play at this moment. He quickly got into the state and let out a loud roar to cover up the embarrassment of being interrupted.

"Ohhhhhh! Looks like our Black Knight can't wait any longer!"

"Yes, let's fight!"

There was no unnecessary nonsense. The Black Knight's expression after stepping onto the court was completely different from the expression when he was confidently making bold statements off the court.

She was solemn and serious, her attention gathered at an incredible speed, and was projected by her master on the enemy. She paid attention to every flaw of Mayna, and her mind appeared every place where Mayna might suddenly swing her sword, and she also outlined every way to deal with the counterattack.

This is experience.

She could see that Manna was unfamiliar with the game. He had an irrepressible resistance and disgust towards the game. His frown was not only a reflection of his vigilance towards himself, but also a suppressed aversion and disgust towards the game, the audience, and those gazes.

These emotions gripped Mainna, making him harbor the foolish idea of ​​"solving the problem as quickly as possible."

And for the Black Knight, these are all opportunities.

How many games do you think she has fought, how many times has she been challenged in this arena, and how many knights with similar emotions has she come, seen, and conquered?

The enemy’s trembling is also food for this excited “Golden Lion”!

The Black Knight raised his right hand, and the mace seemed like an extension of his body, another organ, sweeping towards Mainna's waist at a strange angle.

The waist is the most difficult part of the body to defend. It is in an extremely awkward position. It is difficult to exert 100% of the strength of the bent arms, and the legs are somewhat out of reach, so one can only rely on weapons.

Yes, weapons.

Almost the next second after the Black Knight's mace swept towards his waist, Mainna also moved.

He had to move. The Black Knight's attack was fierce and powerful, and he was not wearing any armor for protection. The only defense was the arm guard on his right hand, which was one of the staff media for the long sword to release the Originium technique.

But he was not intimidated by this.

In addition to standing still, simple fighting is also a way to regain that familiar feeling.

Mainna's sword blocked the Black Knight's mace, but the next second, the Black Knight's left mace also moved.

The mace hit Mainna's shoulder.

“Ding——!” “Ugh!”

The crisp sound of metal colliding and the muffled groan that made the man exhale foul air from his mouth sounded at the same time. The former represented the success of Mainna's defensive strategy, while the latter represented the failure of Mainna's defensive strategy.

"Double maces. These are my weapons of choice since I left Casimir."

"According to the records left by the Commercial Federation, I think he was still using that pitch-black sword, right?"

"The sword has been broken. It was broken in the countryside of Casimir, in Xuantie's hand."

The Black Knight looked at him with disdain and spoke in a calm tone.

"The one standing before you at this moment is not Casimir's Black Knight, but Kjerag's Mace."

"You'd better throw away those outdated information as soon as possible, Lightless Knight."

The reason why she had the time to say so much was because her mace did hit Mainna's shoulder.

The left shoulder is not protected by arm armor.

Mace has never been a simple reckless man. A simple reckless man cannot survive in Leithania and Casimir. Only a place like Kjerag can tolerate people who don't use their brains and live happily.

Isn't that right, Actor?

The mace has always looked down upon the heroes of the world strategically, but has given them the highest degree of attention tactically.

Even though her attack just now was not full strength, it was still about 70% strong. Even if it had hit the full body armor of those cowardly knights, it would have been enough to make the people inside tremble, not to mention hitting their flesh and blood directly!

Mauna's knees buckled.

If the ground beneath his feet had not been specially repaired and reinforced, that blow would be enough to create a pit in the ground.

Half of his body was almost paralyzed, and the severe pain was blocked before it could even reach him. Even though Mahenna tried to adjust his breathing and quickly regain the perception of his left arm, he received very little response. This showed how heavy the blow was.

But there was no fear in Mainna's raised head.

He looked at the mace. As its name suggests, the mace was long, bladeless, and had four edges.

She is not a person who shows off her power, but she pretends to be. The mace technique is considered to be similar to the sword technique, so when did she start disguising the mace as a blade and showing that illusion to others?

A smile suddenly appeared on Mayenna's lips.

Although knightly competitions are dirty and disgusting, there does seem to be no shortage of interesting and strong players.

"Don't..." Mainna said suddenly.

Looking at the man who stood up again as if nothing had happened, Jian's face became even more solemn:

"what?"

"I said, don't call me the Lightless Knight. I have not accepted any knighthood, nor am I some knight nobleman worthy of 'respect'."

"Casimir has no right to honor me."

The corner of his mouth curled up and he sneered, "Who has it?"

"unmanned."

"How arrogant! When I defeat you, I will give you a medal for defeat."

"Oh?" Maenna raised the sword in his hand, "Then let's try it."

The 22 seconds had already arrived. The blow of the mace did interrupt the process of his slightly relaxed office worker muscles re-adapting to this feeling, but her extra words made up for this part very well.

so now.

"It's raining."

PS: After watching the plot: Teacher Xiao Te, Teacher Xiao Te, please take me away. You are the only true saint in this world. Da Te lied to you, but you believed him. Others betrayed you, but you forgave them. The assassin assassinated you, but you remembered him.

She is such a saint that she doesn't have any black spots on her character. Alas.

On the contrary, the part where Teacher Da Te said to Teacher Xiao Te, "You take Babel Tower away, and I will let you come back when the conflict is resolved" really seemed to be referring to Luo Shui's fart.

There was also a promise "I will protect everything in Kazdel!", but less than two years later "Londinim is the future of Sarkaz!", bomb.

The characterization of the Doctor... well, he really lived up to the standard of being a bad guy rather than a light bulb. But it's still a little hard to understand. The Doctor knew about the Preservers, and even their wake-up ringtones, so why didn't he think of looking for them when he was traveling or staying in the Tower of Babel for so many years? He obviously cared so much about the previous civilization and was chosen as the executor of the Spark Project, but because his cell phone signal was temporarily unavailable, he just assumed that the person he called was dead, right? It's hard to judge.

But anyway, it's good, at least Xiao Te's character is established, although the price is the Askalon clown. Now it depends on how the uncle's anniversary leak "the survival of civilization" will be compiled on the island.

Chapter 400: Not a Bad Loser, Not a Bad Winner

"The mace has gained the upper hand."

At least that's what Enthiotis thought.

The so-called advantage is actually a very vague concept. The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. You may be advancing triumphantly the previous second, and then the flag on the city wall will change, and then you will fall from heaven to the bottom of the valley in the next moment.

Since ancient times, those who have the courage to encourage their subordinates by saying "the advantage is mine" have always ended up with a bad outcome.

Therefore, when Ernst heard what Enthiotis said, his first reaction was neither agreement nor disagreement, but he silently worried about the mace.

Is the mace strong?

Very strong.

Her title of "natural warrior" is not groundless. When the heavens closed the door to her Originium skills, they opened the path to extraordinary physical training. Her talent is so amazing that even the Tikaz Flame Demon Safar, whose life span is far beyond that of ordinary people, is amazed by her. Ernst has envied Enthiodis for having such a powerful guard more than once.

Weapons like double maces are much easier to operate than a greatsword.

In Ernst's previous life, there were people who were good at dual wielding weapons and were famous for it. He Liangchen, a guerrilla general in the Jiajing period, once recorded in his book "Zhen Ji": "Bian Zhuangzi's method of fighting, Wang Ju's method of rising and falling, Liu Xianzhu's method of responding, Ma Mingwang's lightning method, Ma Chao's method of attacking, and the five swords have been passed down." This shows that Lord Xuande's dual sword and responding technique was not fabricated.

In addition, the two gate gods of the Tang Dynasty, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong, and foreign generals such as Miyamoto Musashi who was famous for "Two Heavens and One Flow", were all famous for dual wielding weapons.
