Mercenaries and Adventurers

"About the contestants' machete work penetration test, the rules are actually not complicated. The test audience only needs to use as few attacks as possible to kill the live chickens we prepared. The less times you use, the better the performance of the work will be. The better!" the host introduced.

It was not the first time for the hunter to watch the weapon forging competition. He already knew the rules. Although the test items were adjusted every year, it was not the first time to use live chickens to test the penetrating power of the work.

As before, the hunter starts with the work of the tenth player. The tip of this machete is not very sharp, but it’s actually okay. After all, who said that without a tip, you can’t stab someone to death?

The hunter pulled out the machete and waved it twice at the audience, which aroused applause from the audience. Then he directly stabbed the live chicken on the cage in front of him.

The live chickens prepared by the church are domesticated chickens that are common in Kendall County. This kind of chicken is a hybrid of the breed of domestic chicken brought from the empire by the migrating people and the breed of Kendall's local wild pheasant. They not only have the meat yield and egg production capacity of imperial domestic chickens, but also contain the disease resistance and delicious taste of Kendall local pheasants.

In the words of Zhao Ji's previous life, this kind of chicken tastes very chicken.

Similarly, chickens with pheasant blood are quite talented in dodging attacks. If you want to catch them empty-handed, it will be a waste of your nose. The church's special use of this breed of rooster also has the factor of increasing the fun and spectacle of the game.

As soon as the hunter went down with the knife, the live chicken, whose feet were tied up, immediately flapped its wings and fluttered. The knife only scratched the rooster's neck, but did not cause fatal injuries.

The chicken feathers flew wildly, and the cock crowed bursts, and it couldn't stop attacking the hunter.

The hunter was also disgraced for a while. He usually hunted animals with traps and bows, but it was his first time attacking animals with a machete, so he had no experience.

The audience burst into laughter, ridiculing that the hunter was so big that he couldn't kill a live chicken with a single knife. Many people talked about how to go up on their own, how much better than him.

This made the hunter flushed with shame and embarrassment. Regardless of the fluttering wings and scratching chicken feet of the live chicken in front of him, the knife stabbed forward indiscriminately.

One knife, one knife, one knife.

A couple of times in a row, all of them were stabbed empty, but only injured the rooster's wings, and the excited rooster resisted fiercely.

Hahahahahahaha, the audience burst into laughter, and the hunter's clumsy appearance made the scene very happy.

Zhao Ji looked at the hunter, worried that he would be ruined like this in a while. Contestant No. 10 also looked speechless at this time, and his machete work made everyone laugh now.

The hunter became ruthless, grabbed the rooster's head with his left hand, and pierced the rooster's torso with the machete in his right hand. But the rooster didn't die directly, and still persistently scratched the hunter with its claws.

It wasn't until the hunter pulled out the machete that pierced the rooster's torso and let go of his left hand that the rooster that fell on the chicken coop stopped moving a lot, but still flapped its wings slowly, with a weak crowing sound from its throat.

"Attention! Hunter! In this test, the movement of live chickens cannot be restricted, so you just violated the rules of the competition test." The host warned.

The hunter was dumbfounded all of a sudden: "Then what should we do? Or, let's try another live chicken?"

The host listened to the opinions of the three judges, and replied: "No need, this time the work of No. 10 contestant is considered to be of ordinary level. You can go on to test the next work."

Although the hunter didn't know what the normal level was, but since the host said no, he continued to use another machete. Contestant No. 10 looked depressed. Judging from the fact that his machete was able to pierce through a live chicken, he should have received good reviews.

The hunter then equipped the machete of contestant No. 12,

The size and weight of this machete is so large that the audience can't help but feel that if this machete stabs a live chicken, it can directly split the live chicken into two.

The hunter felt the same way, but he had to be able to attack live chickens. With these live chickens jumping around, it was really hard for him to kill them with a single blow.

Pulling out the huge and strong machete of contestant No. 12 from the iron scabbard on the back, the hunter decided to take advantage of the fact that the live chicken hadn't reacted, and killed it with one blow. Avoid the embarrassing scene just now.

With a knife in hand, the hunter carefully aimed at the restless live chicken. Taking advantage of the moment when the other party turned his head, he directly stabbed out with the knife. The live chicken was hit by the machete before it could react.

But the blow missed.

Perhaps it was because contestant No. 12's work was too heavy, and the hunter didn't expect the sinking angle of the machete when he attacked. This blow only pierced the two wings and the back of the living chicken.

While the live chicken was still whining loudly, the hunter drew out his machete and stabbed it again. This knife hit the middle of the live chicken's body. The hunter didn't dare to stab the knife point towards the live chicken's neck like before. He always aimed at the live chicken's body.

The live chicken that was pierced through the body by the second knife lost its life and lay down on the chicken coop before it showed much power.

The hunter was quite satisfied with his attack this time, except for the fact that the first strike was not accurate, it was all because the machete in his hand was too heavy. It's fine for chopping, but it's not suitable for stabbing.

Put away the machete of contestant No. 12, and the hunter took out the machete of contestant No. 5.

The audience has high expectations for this machete, and so does the hunter. Although he prefers the work of contestant No. 10, to be honest, the work of contestant No. 5 is better in terms of performance.

Pulling out the knife and coming to the third live chicken, the hunter weighed the machete in his hand, thinking that this time it would definitely kill him with one blow.

Still using the same routine, the hunter took advantage of the moment the live chicken turned its head, and directly stabbed the live chicken in the middle of its body.

This time, there was no blade falling, and the attack was at the right position. The knife pierced through the middle of the live chicken's body, making the chicken's screams stop abruptly.

"Very good! This time the hunter completed the test of stabbing a live chicken with only one knife. Let our staff clean up the scene, and the old soldier can also play!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, the veteran came to the center of the open space with three machetes in his arms. He put down the other two machetes, held the work of contestant No. 6, and waited for the church staff to deal with the three chickens that died just now.

After a while, under the cheers of the audience, the veteran pulled out the machete in his hand, held the scabbard in his left hand, and clenched the machete in his right hand. With one jump, I came to the front of the chicken coop.

While jumping in the air, the veteran retracted his right arm to charge up, and when his feet touched the ground, he made a thrust.

Right into the center of the live chicken's body. The live chicken that was stabbed by the machete shook and fell to the cage.

The veteran put the machete stained with a little chicken blood into the scabbard, and signaled to the audience that the kill was complete.

"Is there any mistake? Why did his chicken fall down in one blow? Why is the chicken I dealt with so vigorous?" The hunter watched the veteran kill the chicken with a single blow, and complained dissatisfiedly.

For the hunter's complaints, the veteran didn't say anything, but happily accepted the cheers of the audience.

Put down the machete of player number six. The veteran then picked up the machete work of contestant No. 8. He didn't follow the order of the previous test, because he didn't like the work of contestant No. 7 very much. He felt that the work of contestant No. 7 was not reliable, mainly because it was too strange.

The audience didn't care which machete the veteran used, all three judges noticed. The three looked at each other, talked quietly, and then laughed.

There is nothing to say about the skill of the veteran. Although he has retired for a while, his skill has not fallen. Just simply killing a live chicken was not too easy for him. He has fought against ferocious monsters with his teammates before, so why can't he simply cook this live chicken?

Same trick, but this time the veteran no longer jumps and stabs. For the audience's viewing effect, he used his real skills this time.

He stood still five meters away from the chicken coop, then jumped out obliquely with his body bent down, and then jumped backwards after landing. When jumping into the air, the body also twirled and somersaulted in a circle. Then it jumped in the opposite direction again, and just jumped back and forth a few times and approached the chicken coop.

This time, instead of jumping directly to the chicken coop, he jumped over the edge of the chicken coop, stabbing the flustered live chicken with a knife while in the air.

As soon as the person landed, the veteran turned and looked at the live chicken. Okay, the live chicken just now has become a dead chicken. His knife precisely pierced the main organ of the chicken and killed him directly.

The applause was even more ferocious this time, and the audience all admired the skill of this veteran, it was really amazing.

"Did you see clearly just now?" The Bordeaux shepherd asked the Knight Crowe beside him.

"Ah, I see it clearly. I stabbed it out with a single knife, and smashed the heart and spine of the rooster precisely." Knight Crowe returned, "It's a pity, he is very skilled, but he is too old to retire. No knights. It seems that he must have offended some important people in the army before. What a pity."

"Really? I think his skill is not bad, maybe he can become a warrior of our church! As long as his belief is not a big problem, I hope he believes in the God of Craftsman! Please, the great God of Craftsman , please." The shepherd of Bordeaux was very curious about the veteran and wanted to recruit him.

"How is it possible! You're overthinking it. To be able to survive until retirement in the elite team of the kingdom, he must have believed in the God of War. Without the blessing of the gods, how could he have lived to this age?"

"Forget it then. So, Mr. Grimm, are you interested in this veteran?"

"I am interested, but I have to find out if there is any power behind them, so that I can communicate with them about this matter. After all, my Galloping Horse Chamber of Commerce is a small chamber of commerce, and it can't compare with you two, ah two place?" Mr. Grimm said with a modest smile.

"Ahahaha." Knight Crowe and Bordeaux Shepherd both laughed.

Under the stage, the veteran put down the machete of contestant No. 8, and reluctantly pulled out the machete of contestant No. 7.

Still the same as before, the soft handle and inexplicably trembling blade made the veteran dislike and distrust this strange machete. How can the handle be soft? In this way, can I give myself a firm grip when I exert my strength to grip the handle of the knife? The blade will also vibrate inexplicably. Isn't this machete forged on site? It is impossible to be attached to it by a mysterious evil spirit?

Glancing at the knight and the church pastor on the stage, out of trust in these two, the veteran still reluctantly used this strange weapon.

This time he neither jumped nor flipped left and right, but walked calmly to the front of the chicken coop, staring at the restless live chicken, and at the moment when the live chicken was oppressed by his momentum, the old soldier stabbed out with his right hand, It stabbed directly into the middle of the live chicken's body.

Contrary to the expectations of the veterans, after the machete pierced into the live chicken, the blade vibrated for a while, causing the chicken's internal organs to burst.

Blood stains mixed with visceral fragments sprayed out in small streams from the machete puncture wound.

The veteran raised his eyebrows, quickly pulled out the machete, and threw it to the ground.

The live chicken immediately fell to the cage and died, and blood flowed from the wound. The machete thrown to the ground vibrated and nailed directly to the rocky bricks on the ground.

"This knife is weird! Crow Knight! Bordeaux Shepherd! Please take a look at it, it's really weird!" The veteran said to the two judges on the wooden table with a hoarse voice.

Contestant No. 7 blushed: "What's so weird! Why don't I know about the weapons I made myself!"

The audience was talking about this scene, what's so weird about this machete? Why didn't they see it?
