Whispering Verse

Chapter 1567: spring worries

The cheers of the crowd and the screams that erupted when the two young knights made contact nearly shook the clear blue sky above the arena. Horseshoes trampled on the arena floor, wooden swords clashed and were parried or hit their targets, armor reflected in the harsh sunlight of an early spring morning.

The past few days have been continuous good weather, and as the temperature rises, this kind of good weather will inevitably make people feel drowsy. But fortunately, the atmosphere in the arena at this moment infected almost everyone.

"This is Shad Hamilton?"

On the top floor of the auditorium on the east side of the arena, Moody Robinson, the captain of the Blackstone Security Company, asked Iluna. Iluna looked at the figure in the golden armor in the arena, and nodded slightly:

"Yes, it seems that his sword skills are indeed very good."

Beside Iluna, the sorceress whose lips were painted purple smiled and said, "Iluna, you seem to have a good relationship with this Mr. Hamilton?" "Yes, with his identity, I can get Lots of valuable social connections."

Iluna is still looking at Xia De's figure, she knows that Xia De will not lose. "But this knight's social relationship is quite complicated. Everyone in Tobesk is aware of the scandal between him and Duchess Galina."

Captain Robinson wanted to remind the promising young girl in his team, but he couldn't speak, so he looked at another member of his team.

The lady with purple lips smiled and said:

"He's really young and handsome. If I were more than ten years younger, I'm afraid I would fall in love with him too."

"Actually, you don't need to warn me. I know my own affairs. Rushing to get involved with ordinary people will only implicate innocent people. I will watch him from afar and bless him. I know how to keep a distance."

Iluna leaned on the railing, her eyes still looking at Shad. The warm wind blows the hair hanging by her ear, but it cannot blow the young girl's heart:

"He must stand by my side."

Iluna Bayas said softly in her heart, looking at Shad with a smile in her eyes. She didn't say anything about the little dark thoughts in her heart. After all, in the eyes of a balanced candidate, only a person with good and evil thoughts at the same time can be called a real person.

There was a flash of light at the edge of the field of vision, and Iluna's eyes subconsciously tried to catch it, but the flashing strong light source was no longer in the auditorium opposite.

"Is that a lady's vanity mirror?"

She thought to herself, and then a powerful inspiration caught the anomaly: "Mirror...".

She continued to stare at Xia De in the arena and thought for a while. When Xia De put aside the opponent's wooden sword on the horse, and used a simple forward poke posture, and almost poked little Dullah Khan off the horse, she said to the captain beside her. :

"Please contact the churches in the city to see if any illegal groups related to mirrors have recently entered the Tobesk Diocese."

On the other side, although Xia De has been giving way to little Dulahan, but when the time is only the last ten minutes, he seems to have suddenly understood the true meaning of swordsmanship, using fast, accurate and ruthless combos, like swinging a long sword. Wielding the wooden sword in his hand like a whip, he continuously hit white spots on the young opponent's armor.

When the horn sounded at the end of the game and continued to spread under the clear blue sky, the audience did not even have to wait for the referee to announce that it was "Leggard's Hamilton" who won the second half of the semi-final.

Neither of them was injured, so after dismounting and taking off their helmets, they politely shook hands in the center of the arena to express respect for their opponents. The spotlight of the camera flickered frantically, trying to record this moment, but Mr. Dullahan said "thank you" softly to Shad.

Xia De didn't quite understand at first, he led the horse to the side of the arena, and when he waited for the opening of the finals, he realized later that the young gentleman probably thought that Xia De deliberately gave way to him so that he could Be better in front of your lover, even if you lose the game, you can show your bravery.

Xia De felt that he might have another friend.

The weather is fine, the sky is blue, and the white clouds like cotton candy are like ants above the head.

Moving like ants. The noisy sounds around him did not affect Xia De's comfort at the moment. He listened to the voice of the palace attendant who recited poems to the entire arena through a loudspeaker and praised the last two contestants. How long can it last.

After a not-so-long break, with the cheers of the audience and the explosion of fireworks, the final of the third sub-event of the 1854 Spring Ring Riding Competition finally arrived.

Shad and Sir Hells from Coldwater Harbor each led their horses and met in the center of the arena. They raised their swords, and the two swords crossed in the air for three seconds. Then they mounted their horses and waited. The horn sounded at the start of the final.

Under the helmet, Xia De took a deep breath, and in the eyes of everyone, he waved the reins and charged towards the old knight who probably participated in the last round of the city because of his age.

(Mia is running...)

Boom!

The sound of the metal helmet being heavily placed on the table startled the cat who was watching Shad "undress" with great interest. Xia De, who was breathing fresh air in the tent, his hair was stuck to his forehead with sweat, but he had a rare smile on his face:

"Why is it so hot today? How did the knights of the previous era manage to walk around wearing armor all day long in summer?"

He grinned and grumbled, and his good mood spread to the others in the tent.

The maids smiled and helped him take off the armor on his body, and took the opportunity to squeeze Shade's arm, but no one stopped him. Dorothy took her notes

"After all, it's already spring. Shade, I thought just now that you would give way to that old knight a little bit."

"Why let it go? This is a Cavaliers game. It would be disgraceful if I deliberately played tricks in the final. Sir Hells lost, but he looked very happy and invited me to have time Visit him at Coldwater Harbor."

Xia De said, and then felt cool. Turning his head, he saw Tifa wiping his forehead with a wet towel.

"Judging from the points ranking announced this morning, you must be number one at the moment. In the exhibition match this afternoon, Sir Hells should be dueling with you."

Dorothy said, Xia De was a little surprised:

"Sir Halse? I thought it would be Mr. Eric Furlan. Although he lost to the Jazz this morning, I remember the Jazz had a bad first round in archery."

"But Eric Furlan had a bad second round too. You probably didn't pay attention, he was 18th out of 36 in the field ride on Tuesday morning, that Sir Hulse But it's third."

Dorothy shook her head:

"In short, now you are only one step away from being the champion. Eat a little more lunch, and then take a nap. If you don't like to sleep here, go to the carriage. When you go to the competition in the morning, Miss Galina's private carriage from the The manor is here. Although it is not comparable to a serious room, it is enough for you to rest."

"It's okay to take a nap. I always feel that something will happen today."

Xia De shook his head, and held his heart with his hand:

"I really believe in my own inspiration. [Faceless Man] will definitely appear before the game ends this afternoon. After dinner, I'll go outside for a walk, and you guys will stay in the tent and wait for me."

"Be careful when you go out by yourself. Someone who crushed Eric Furren in the underground casino may cause some disgusting things."

Dorothy warned, Xia De nodded, and then saw Mia lightly jumping from the cabinet next to the mirror, using the mirror as a springboard, she jumped directly onto the table next to it, and then jumped into the warm helmet , seems to enjoy the feeling of curling up inside.

After lunch, Xia De left the camp alone, because it was the last day of the competition, and the market was quite lively. Xia De even saw a businessman selling a profile photo of "Leggard's Hamilton", which should be from Bought from journalists.

But he

No clues about the relic [Faceless Man] were found.

When he was about to return to his camp, Xia De thought about talking to the Fulun brothers again. Although he couldn't tell the two brothers that he was also a ring warlock, he planned to test whether they also knew about the [Faceless Man].

However, as soon as he approached Mr. Eric Furren's camp, Shad felt something was wrong. The servants of the two brothers were outside the tent. Although they seemed to be packing their luggage, they actually surrounded the tent to prevent anyone from approaching.

At the same time, even after UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Xia De closed his eyes, he couldn't hear any heartbeat in the tent through the thaumaturgy [Heart of Stone]. It is absolutely impossible that there is no one in the tent at this moment, otherwise such a guard would be meaningless. Therefore, this also means that alchemical items such as [Silencing Charm] or thaumaturgy with similar functions are blocking the sound from the camp.

"What are you talking about?"

He was very curious about this, although it was immoral to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, but after repenting in his heart, he still used the disguise of "Red Butterfly Illusion Technique" to walk over. Brothers Eric Furren and Charles Furren are not big figures like the Great Witch, and the servants around them are just ordinary people, so there is no need to worry about being discovered.

Fortunately, although the two brothers blocked the voices in the camp, they probably didn't expect to have a long conversation, so they didn't set up other anti-detection rituals.

Under the cover of illusion, Xia De went directly to the west side of the tent. In order to prevent being detected by the ring warlock's extremely sensitive perception, he did not enter the tent, but carefully stretched his fingers towards the ventilation window of the tent. Xia De still can't hear the sound in this state, after all, he doesn't have ears on his fingers, but fortunately "she" can hear it.
