Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 157 156. Ineffective Killing
After paying tribute in front of the king, the opposing sides turned their heads and parted.

Gregor Clegane didn't just rely on a gifted body to have the momentum he has today.

When he drove the horse to the reserved position for the race, Lan En could see that this guy's riding skills were also of a very good level.

Compared with the famous [Magic Mountain], Sir Hugh is like a monkey riding a dog.

No one has expressed optimism about his game.

But at the same time, no one expected that the accident on the martial arts field would come so suddenly.

"The law of the law!"*2
The horse neighed, and the two men, who were quite different in size, charged at each other.

The horseshoes of the war horse kicked up the mud and weeds on the ground, and the sound of treading the ground was like the beating of the heart in people's chest.

The tips of their lances were trembling with the ups and downs of the horse, making the other party not sure where to stab.

For knights charging with spears, the game of spear landing and shield parry is also a necessary part of the technology.

At the moment when the two staggered, Gregor's steed was just stepping on the ground and moving its center of gravity downward.

Xiufu instinctively shifted the shield on his deputy downwards to protect his upper body and chest.

This area is the largest, and it is also the most suitable attack position compared to Gregor's state.

But Lan En, who was watching the battle from the audience, had superhuman motor nerves that made him frown at this moment.

"The horse's center of gravity is falling, but his own center of gravity is on the horse's back. The target of riding the spear is on it!"

Just as Lan En predicted, that black-coated wooden lance looked like a boa constrictor out of its hole!

When Xiufu's shield was moving down, he just brushed the side and stabbed it to the throat!
The armor plate at the throat is the weakest part of the armor, because the twist angle of the neck itself must be fully taken care of.

The special lance used in competition is a brittle wooden product, and that's right.But under normal circumstances, it is required that the lance will burst and dissipate the impact when it hits the thick body armor of the knights.

In this case, the throat armor was directly pierced!
After a split second, the horse of [Magic Mountain] kept walking and rushed all the way to the end of the runway.

Hugh fell just in front of the high platform where the king was.

His armored body hit the dirt road heavily, with a palm-length wooden thorn stuck in his throat.

The blood in the veins in the throat is flowing out along the opening opened by the wooden thorn.

Xiufu stared blankly on the ground, his arms seemed to be stretched to the throat, and he pulled out the wooden splinter.

But before his hands reached his neck, he had no strength left and could only scratch randomly in the air.

On the high platform, Sansa screamed and hid in Ed's arms.

Aliya's face was grim, but after passing the tavern in Vizima all night, she now had no fear or discomfort except surprise.

The nun who came with Sansa was the most exaggerated, she wailed and screamed.

Ed stared, trying to accept the sudden blood in front of him, comforting the eldest daughter in his arms, and looking down the stage.

After looking at Lan En, he saw the young man frowning and nodded slightly.

Murder and kill.

And it's a blatant but undisputed murder.

[Magic Mountain] The family he belongs to, and his calm look now clearly illustrate this point.

Their actions are undisguised, and in the eyes of insiders, they are even more arrogant and domineering.

But in the face of a powerful opponent, one must be prepared for the enemy's naturally high fault tolerance rate.

Even if the Lannister family is spotted by others, there are plenty of explanations.

I killed and silenced, but you don't know why I killed and silenced.

What if it's just because of a small thing?

It's not impossible for a knight to offend Lannister because of a trivial matter, and then get killed, right?
Is the Prime Minister going to turn his face because of this kind of thing?We are all nobles, don't make it so ugly!

Otherwise, if there is a fight between the great nobles, will the kingdom still be maintained?
So even though Ed's face is as black as coal dust now, he can only stay in this stand and watch the tournament continue.

After seeing blood in the martial arts arena, the enthusiasm of the crowd was even higher.

After several knights in a row decided the winner, [Magic Mountain] played again, fighting against a guy called [Knight of Hundred Flowers].

His horse was covered with a seat rug woven with flowers, and the armor on his body was designed with openwork and carved patterns.

While being gorgeous and beautiful, the protective ability has been raised abruptly by spending money.

And he is not only rich in family, he is also a caring person.

He rode a mare in heat, and successfully disturbed [Magic Mountain]'s mount with the smell of the mare while charging with his spear.

Let the tall black horse's footsteps fluctuate for a while, and it is because of this moment that the basic quality of the mare's inferiority, relying on its good footsteps, instead overwhelms the opponent in terms of impact.

He successfully stabbed the towering Gregor Clegane with his riding skills.

The cheers sounded like a tsunami, and the glorious and handsome knight won the victory, which always makes people happier than the victory of [Magic Mountain].

Then the tall giant raised his hand and pulled off his helmet, drew his sword like chopping firewood, and cut off more than half of the thick neck of his mount!

The thick neck of the horse was only connected to the lower layer of flesh when it fell to the ground.

This was not enough, he also angrily slashed towards the Knight of Flowers who had already won.

If it wasn't for the [Hound Knight] beside the prince rushing down and fighting with his brother for a while, it is estimated that this knight would have to explain here.

Finally, the farce stopped at the king's roar.Today's game schedule has also come to an end.

A bonfire was set up at the tournament venue, and the banquet began.

The adults who wanted to go back to King's Landing set up their chariots and prepared to take their families back.

As long as Ed closes his eyes now, he will think of Xiufu's throat pierced by a wooden thorn.

He has seen the real battlefield, and he doesn't care about this scene.But there are his daughters here, and he doesn't want them to stay here for even a minute longer.

"They're killing people. Shall we go and see Hugh's body? Ser Barristan is keeping his vigil, and no one can touch him."

Ed rode on the horse and asked Lan En in a low voice.

Ser Barristan is a legendary figure in this world, with the title of "The Bold".

In a battle called 'Nine Copper Plate Kings' many years ago, he went straight to the enemy line alone, beheaded the opponent's generals, and ended the war.

His bravery and integrity have been sung on this continent for decades, even now he has a slack old man's face.

But if you ask someone in Westeros, who is the strongest knight in the world, then the answer will probably be-[Barristan the Fearless].

He has almost become the benchmark and symbol of the term "knight".

"It doesn't matter whether you move your hands or feet. Xiufu is already worthless. His most useful things are in his head, and we have already emptied that information."

Lan En pushed back the silver hair in front of his eyes, and said flatly.

"On the contrary, he is dead now, but it will make the enemy feel that they have cut off their clues and relax. The time when they relax is the time when we are most likely to gain an advantage."

"Now, it's time for you to look for the former Prime Minister's abnormal behavior during his lifetime. The resistance will be much smaller."

After Ed thought for a while, he seemed to have thought of a certain goal.

"I understand."
