Eagle Flag of Epirus
Vol 3 Chapter 21: Fierce battle
Everyone is watching the duel in front of them, and there is no doubt that the winner will be chosen between these two warriors, which makes the audience watching this grand performance on the racetrack once again plunged into fanaticism. .
But the upper ranks on the high platform were not at all infected by the carnival of the civilians. Gradually, someone finally saw that something was wrong.
Obviously, this game is no longer the point. They believe that their Lord Earl is definitely not just trying to increase the joy of the festival so ridiculous. The real goal should be to get rid of this samurai wearing a Latin armor. The identity of the person in that armor can't help but arouse suspicion and speculation from all sides.
After all, this banquet is not only the nobles of Agrinion, but many of them are from Rusnina. Many of them are Mikhail's cronies, but there are also other neutral nobles, even if they are. It is not surprising that there is any secret collusion with the Latins.
Only for now, they are also at a loss, because of the whole body equipment, they don't know the identity of the person under the armor, and they don't know that the samurai who is being used as the trump card at this moment is Justinian.
On the other side, the battle between Justinian and the armored warrior finally began. Although they bowed to each other and respected their opponents, both knew that the next battle would be a life and death battle. .
Justinian took the lead in attacking. He has been observing the way the samurai fights from just now, but he still hasn’t seen it through. Although the opponent uses Byzantine swordsmanship, he intuitively tells him that the other side is different. There are killer moves.
swiftly accelerated and ran out a few steps, Justinian compressed his body like a spring to accumulate energy and jumped up, and the Alamano-style epee in his hand also slashed at the heavy armored warrior. This kind of two-handed sword cannot withstand the thunder blow even if it is in a strong armor. If it is resisted, the short knife in the opponent's hand will not be able to stop the sword at all.
The calculated Justinian expected that the opponent could only dodge, but an unexpected scene happened.
The heavy armored warrior neither evaded nor resisted, but made a weird move, and saw that the tip of the short knife was twisted in his hand, and the next moment Justinian realized what the other party was going to do.
There was a cold light, and the short knife was thrown directly at Justinian’s front door as a throwing knife. The heavy armored warrior actually let the weapon go directly like the gladiator holding the battle axe before. This is undoubtedly a game. Gambling, if there is a slight difference, then he will be directly split in half with a sword.
But at such a close distance, there was a gust of wind on the surface, and he realized that the danger Justinian had to raise the blade to fend off the blow, otherwise his head would be pierced by a short knife before he saw the sword.
"咚——"
The short sword collided with the two-handed sword, and it was dull and deep, and Justinian's hands were numb with a strange force.
What kind of terrible power is this? Justinian almost thought he was facing a bull instead of a human opponent. The next moment, when he just landed, he noticed a flash of black shadow in front of him.
After the weapon was released, the armored warrior did not pick up other weapons, but instead suddenly got close when he was distracted and threw a heavy punch. This is no longer a Byzantine or Latin way of fighting. Justinian’s numb hands have not been relieved by surprise, and the chest is solidly hit. There is almost an illusion of being hit by a siege hammer. .
But fortunately, the armor protection of Justinian himself is still very qualified, and it is not enough for Justinian, who immediately regressed so as to relieve his strength, still feels that his heart almost stopped beating.
And seeing the heavy armored warrior on the ground who couldn't make a single blow, he moved away from Justinian again, and he picked up the battle axe used by the gladiator before. At this moment, Justinian had to take it all seriously, and the opponent he faced now was more dangerous than anyone he had faced before. There was a chill in his heart, and Justinian raised his two-handed sword in front of him and took a deep breath to adjust his state.
Obviously he has no advantage in strength, and he can only rely on keenly capturing the opponent’s flaws, working hard to recall and adapt. Justinian is mastering his body step by step. The original owner of this body is a natural killer, and Even though he is another soul, his original fighting methods and habits have not changed in this body.
In a sense, Justinian has gradually deepened his mastery over time.
"I have to say that you are amazing, you almost died! It would be really embarrassing if you were that way." Justinian smiled wryly behind the helmet. He was delaying time to recover and it was true. Thinking from the bottom of my heart, he was really careless just now. If he was killed like that, he would be laughed at by the audience at the racecourse!
The armored warrior who was not enough to face him did not answer, but he did not continue to attack, as if he was really waiting for Justinian to adjust before attacking.
While watching this scene, Justinian, who was a little confused, could only shrug his shoulders. After a while, the recovered young man raised his sword and rushed up again. This time Justinian did not risk giving the opponent a flaw, any negligence in the face of such an enemy would be fatal, and the heavy armored warrior on the other side also did not make any more dangerous moves, even though he suppressed the opponent in the previous confrontation. , But he also understands that the opponent is equally tricky, especially now that the opponent has adjusted his state.
In just a moment, two heavy-armored men, the two heavy weapons have collided with each other many times, and the clank of metal collisions surprised everyone. There is no shortage of battle-tested generals in the stands, and their excellent fighters gather, but in the arena, the two samurai exchange positions at a high speed, and the weapons in their hands are also waving and colliding together.
It must be said that this is a very strange scene, obviously the weapons used by the two of them are that kind of heavy guy.
The blood of the audience is stunned in each round of fighting. You must know that this kind of fighting is much fiercer than before. People seem to have completely left the elephant behind, and don’t know when Saracen’s tame the beast. The division had already driven the war elephant back, which made the two dueling no longer have any worries.
The next moment, there was an exclamation in the audience, almost at the same time Justinian's two-handed sword and the heavy armored warrior's battle axe were released at the same time, as if they did it deliberately.
The two picked up the fighting swords on the ground at the same time, and the weapons of the gladiators who died before were everywhere.
Justinian took the lead in rushing up. It used a kind of swordsmanship similar to that of an assassin. In history, there are many cases of assassins jumping into the battlefield to kill enemy generals when the two armies confronted each other. For example, Hashashin in the East, they even Can assassinate cavalry with a short sword on the battlefield.
And this requires the user's dexterity to cut off the blood vessels of the horse's neck while evading the lance. Only in this way can the assassin be able to walk on the ground in the army of millions. Of course, this is often regarded as an exaggeration, but this is the swordsmanship that Justinian is best at.
As the dagger cut and cut, the blade flipped over, like a dexterous flying fish, and Justinian, who was close to his body, slashed past and slashed the throat of the heavy armored warrior.
But the assassination ended in less than ten seconds. It felt unusually abrupt. From Justinian, he didn't feel the split of the flesh, but the impact between the steel. And the next moment, the opponent's fighting sword pierced his chest and Justinian had to dodge the blow. The two staggered and pulled apart. They still held their swords for defense, motionless like a statue.
Looking at all of this carefully, Justinian suddenly understood what had happened before. It turned out that in order to fix the dead helmet, there was a welded iron ring on the neck of the heavy armor warrior. No wonder he just missed it, but There was nothing to be discouraged, and Justinian immediately resumed his fighting position.
On the other side, a drop of blood fell on the blade of the heavy armored warrior, and he subconsciously looked down at his chest, once he found a gap in the chain mail on his chest. Even though Justinian had just missed his hand, he still injured him, and a shallow wound was clearly visible.
Then the heavy armored warrior immediately waved the sword in his hand, and Justinian suddenly felt a strong suffocating murderous aura.
Is it angry because of injury? Justinian was a little surprised by the other party's reaction, which shouldn't be the case. There was no room for both sides, and the true fighters would never be furious because of this kind of injury. But the other party's anger was obvious, and it seemed that something else angered him.
Immediately afterwards, the opponent in front of him once again let out a roar like a beast, and he leaped forward too, but the next second Justinian stared at the opponent's figure with eyes widening incredibly.
is almost the same sideways rotation, even the direction of the dagger in his hand is exactly the same, the same battlefield assassin's swordsmanship is reproduced in the hands of the heavy armored warrior.
"It's impossible!" Justinian almost blurted out. The other party's tricks are exactly the same as what he had done before, but the other party will never be able to imitate it in such a short time, unless the other party will! But he couldn't think about it anymore, the other party's attack had already arrived, but Justinian, who was already very familiar, predicted his attack in the next moment.
As if in a dream, Justinian subconsciously locked the opponent's arm with his elbow, while the other hand sent the fighting sword into the opponent's heart.
"Puff", this time it was not a slash, but a stabbing. The fighting sword directly penetrated the chain mail and penetrated the heart of the heavy armored warrior. This was a deadly place.
In the stands, the audience who saw this scene burst out with astonishing cheers. However, as the winner, Justinian felt like a cloud and mist. The blow just now was entirely a subconscious action. . To be precise, it is not him, but the reflexive behavior of the body.
, he stared at the heavy armored warrior Justinian who was hit by his own fatal blow and couldn't speak. Somehow, he had a feeling that the attack just now seemed to be done deliberately by the other party.
Justinian did not pull out the fighting sword. He knew that if he pulled it out immediately, the opponent would be killed on the spot. He gently helped the opponent to fall down, even though he was looking at the opponent through the pot helmet. What do you want to say.
tried to take off the opponent's helmet, but Naihe was completely welded to death. Obviously this was what the designer wanted to do deliberately, and Theodor did not want to reveal the identity of this person. But no matter what Justinian tried, the other party seemed to be speechless. He had a hunch that the person under this armor absolutely knew something, at least related to his original identity.
The Turkic people who met Alex III before revealed in a few words that he originally appeared to be from a certain country in the East, and there seems to be inextricably linked to the Ark of the Covenant, but now Justin Niwanwan didn't expect to find a clue again, but he couldn't get it right in front of his eyes. Justinian could not help clenching his fists, but just then the dying heavy armored warrior stuffed something into Justinian’s palm~www.wuxiaspot.com~ on the other side, in Justinian While Ni was winning, the Earl of Theodor, who was watching the game, was tapping the table in front of him with his fingertips. Although Justinian successfully settled the troublesome task for him, the man seemed to still be thinking about something.
Behind him, Saracen's animal trainer came over and asked tentatively: "Master Earl, do you need to release the elephant now? Even if he wins, he may not be able to deal with my child." Sure enough, Theodore did have two preparations, but things still surprised him. He thought that Justinian and that man would lose both, but Justinian won. It was wonderful to win, but it was a bit easier.
The man stared at Justinian with an indescribable look, and muttered to himself: "It's amazing. It seems that Muzfius really didn't choose the wrong person, but in a sense it is indeed a kind of Potential danger, should I really save your life?" Theodor hesitated, but still didn't make a decision. He didn't know whether to crush the child's life in his hands.
But at this moment, a scene that surprised Theodor happened. The victorious Justinian took off his helmet and revealed his face in full view, and for a while, there was a shock from the noble seat. Phew, even though the civilians still cheered, some nobles recognized that the person who participated in this performance and won the victory was the lord of Ilovan Castle, Justinian, the former guard of His Majesty Muzfius.
Theodore, who had witnessed all this, also had shocked eyes, subconsciously sneered, "Huh, what a lunatic. He actually showed his face, I have already warned him that the identity of the murderer was not so. simple."
