Vikings: Journey of the Juggernaut

Chapter 23 Brother!scary creature

"You little beast, you're stealing milk again, I'll kill you!"

The huge and terrifying hill-like figure was holding a sword and striding over the muddy ground. The sunlight above his head was blocked and the shadow was completely shrouded.

moo—

Along with the cow's cry, the little girl watched the ferocious-looking man raise his sword, the blade fell, and a not tall figure appeared in front of her.

brush--

Blood splattered all over her face.

"It's just the opposite, Rayleigh, get out of my way!"

The furious man pushed the back figure away, and swung his sword up at the girl. The unbalanced figure stretched out his arm spurting blood, and at the last moment, he pulled the girl back.

The blade of the blade grazed the corner of the girl's left eye, splattering with blood.

"Are you letting go?"

The man became more and more irritable, and the shadow completely enveloped the two figures. His voice was twisted and crazy, "I will kill this beast today. If you don't get away, I will chop him and his body together."

"Okay."

The figure from behind took a step forward, "Step over my body and chop it."

"get out!!"

The man was furious, his thick blade dripping with blood, like a bloodthirsty beast opening its bloody mouth, "I'll ask you one last time..."

"Do not talk nonsense."

"You are basically forcing me to kill you..."

"Tell you to stop talking nonsense."

"You have the guts!" The man's pupils were about to burst and he suddenly raised his sword, "I really thought I didn't dare to kill you..."

"Come."

"Then go to hell!" The sword fell with a crash.

moo—

The blade of the knife finally turned an angle and struck the cow next to her, with the hair cut off.

"Spot, run!"

……

Looking at the figure rising up with a sword drawn in the middle of the field, memories of the past flashed through Mellie's eyes.

When she was young, facing her father's knife, her brother risked his life and protected her behind him with his not-so-tall figure.

It was the same now. She knew that her talent was so outstanding that she could no longer hide it, causing her brother, who had always been low-key and reserved, to shine brightly. He once again stood in front of her, taking the lead in becoming a barrier against the wind and rain.

Sometimes I occasionally hear people say behind their backs that they are a poor person and that they had a miserable childhood.

In fact, they are all wrong!
Mellie felt that she was not miserable when she was young. Although she did not have a father or mother who loved her, she had an older brother who had been protecting and accompanying her as she grew up.

Others don't.

Mellie opened her mouth and tried very hard to say those two words. After a long time, she found it really difficult to speak.

call--

She puffed up her cheeks and felt secretly angry for a while, but soon regained her fighting spirit.

I will not give up. One day I will make those eagle eyes look back in surprise:

ah!Mellie, was it you who called me just now?
Yes, brother!

……

Those iron blocks are not protective gear at all, but weights used for exercise?
Seeing the iron block smashing deeply into the ground, Tom completely sobered up from his drink, and his face became extremely ugly at the same time.

At this moment, I still don’t understand why this beast dares to duel with Gerald. He obviously has a certain amount of confidence and is not just pretentious as he had guessed before.

The calm and collected widow may not be faking it at all.

Tom couldn't help but feel worried in his heart, and told himself secretly.

Gerrard should be better than him, no, he must be better than him!

……

At this time of the duel, Gerrard's expression had changed from angry and irritable to disbelief.Compared to the outside audience, he could feel the banging sound of the iron blocks falling to the ground at the moment they fell.

This trash has hidden strength! !
No wonder this good-for-nothing dared to attack him, and even threatened to beat him to death. At first, he just thought it was a joke.

However, I am not a vegetarian. When encountering narrow paths, the brave will win, so let’s give it a try.

Gerald's eyes became ferocious again, thinking that these alone could make him timid was simply ridiculous.

It's just that the raiders have the same strength, and there can't be much difference in strength. In the end, it depends on who is more desperate, or at worst, they can go to the Hall of Valor together.

……

Between the two people confronting each other, the female warrior Sophia came back from her daze.

She felt like something was wrong!

Those weight-bearing iron rings smashed into the ground, I didn't expect this guy to retain so much strength.

'He is not strong enough to bully me. '

'No need, I think he is suitable. '

No wonder he would say things that were not something a normal quasi-soldier could say, and dare to openly challenge Gerald and start a duel directly.Thinking of this, Sophia's face felt slightly uncomfortable. She thought this guy was an idiot before, but she didn't expect that she was the brainless idiot.

However, the final result of this duel is still unpredictable.

Of course, she was more optimistic about Rayleigh. Things had become obvious and Rayleigh had made more preparations.Gerrard could not have thought of this scene and was just responding hastily.

But in a duel where the difference in strength is not too big, there is no absolute guarantee of victory.A trivial mistake may cost one's life. It can only be said that Rayleigh's winning rate may be slightly higher.

"Come here and take those iron blocks and wires aside."

Sophia motioned to some would-be soldiers. The iron blocks in the middle of the field were clearly in the way.

……

Wayne and others, who couldn't wait to see the weight of the iron block, quickly stepped forward to clean the iron block.Once you get your hands on it, you can feel the weight of the iron block.

Then someone tried holding two pieces of iron in one hand, and then tried to wave it around, and his expression became different.

"With this thing tied to your wrist, can you really wield a weapon?"

"I can't move. I find it difficult to walk."

Looking up at the figure standing with the sword in his hand, he felt unimaginable horror.

They could clearly see the smooth scene of drawing the sword before, and at that time, the iron blocks had not been removed.

In such a comparison, these quasi-soldiers who even have the strength of trainee raiders are simply weaker than grass chickens.It can even be said that they are not at the same level at all, and the gap is immeasurable.

This man definitely has talents comparable to those of Jecam and Kayson, and even above those two monsters.

The three heroes of this class are indeed the strongest class in the past century that Skadi often mentioned in the past, and they are one of the best in the entire history of the tribe.

……

After they finished moving the iron blocks, countless people outside looked at them.

"Little guys, take two iron rings and show us."

A loser who is at the bottom of his peers dares to challenge Gerrard, who is two years older, to a duel. How can people not be curious about what kind of hidden strength that guy has.

"We can't give it randomly without Rayleigh's consent." Youquan warrior responded.

"It's not like I won't give it back, I just want to see if it matters."

"That's right, throw the iron block to us quickly."

"Son, bring me the iron piece. If you lose it, dad will pay for it."

Facing the looks of hundreds of people, including many of their family elders, the would-be soldiers reluctantly handed the iron pieces to the crowd.

And reminded: "Don't lose it..."

"What nonsense, bring it to you."

After getting the things, the adults stopped paying attention to these little guys and began to study the iron blocks in their hands.

"The weight is not light. It weighs at least 40 marks in one hand. It is not close to the strength of the Raider Warrior or even higher. It cannot be played at all."

"Let me see, it's true. It seems that Hawkeye's strength is not weaker than Gerald's, and is even a bit stronger."

"Well, otherwise you wouldn't dare to start a fight to the death. You are just playing house, and someone will die."

The iron block quickly spread among the crowd, and one person after another went to weigh it.

"The total sum is probably over 160 marks. Could it be that this guy wears this thing at the training ground all year round?"

"Otherwise, look at their performance in that session. They have always been at the bottom. With his strength, how could he be so weak without weights?"

"So, this guy has been... since he was a child... he is really a monster among monsters!"

Listening to the discussion that reached their ears, the people who had not received the iron pieces became more and more curious, and even started to urge them.

However, the seven pieces of iron in the assessment site had already been snatched away, so they could only wait eagerly.The remaining piece was protected by Mellie like an old hen.

Skadi and the others did not have to wait. Kaisen brushed his face and brought out a complete set of weights, two semicircular iron rings and two pieces of wire.

"The speed and strength are better than mine." Kaisen removed the weights and sighed again, "He is stronger than me."

"Kaisen, are you serious?" The peers around him couldn't believe it.

"Seriously." Kaisen nodded. He just put on the weight and tried to draw the sword, and he clearly felt a sense of stagnation.Compared with the figure in the field who drew his sword without any sense of stagnation before, there is indeed a gap.

Fighting is all about strength, speed, physical strength, skill, will, and character.

Rayleigh's speed and strength are superior to him, and his physical strength is also not weak. The reason why he gave people the image of being very weak in physical strength in the past can now be answered.It takes a lot of extra energy to fight with this thing on, and it’s a wonder if the stamina lasts.

Of course, it goes without saying that he has skills. As the most diligent warrior, Rayleigh's skills have never been weak, and his defense is even more masterful.

The offense should be worse than your own. After all, everyone has limited time and will always have something to focus on.In daily training, in addition to basic skills, Rayleigh also focuses more on defensive training of blocking and dodging.

As for the will, for nearly ten years, no matter how windy or rainy it is, he has shown up at the training ground early every day. His perseverance and perseverance are unparalleled by ordinary people.

His character is frightening. Three years ago, he faced the provocation of a duel by his second-rate father, and faced the disdainful looks and insults from everyone. He was called a ruthless person by his grandfather.

Not to mention that he has hidden his strength since he was a child and has been willing to be the bottom loser in the training ground for nearly ten years. What kind of terrifying character is this.

Where do you still look like a normal human being?

Kaisen believes that he is already good enough, not only because of his own talent, but also because of his leadership-level grandfather's personal teachings all year round, whether it is martial arts or how to behave.

His own efforts are no worse than anyone else's. The reason why he doesn't arrive at the training ground so early every day is because that time is his grandfather's special training time.

Even so, it seems that he is not as good as Rayleigh in all aspects.

He didn't understand the concept of 'general qualifications' before. After all, his uncle had become a decadent drunkard early on. Now he finally understands:
This kind of terrifying creature that doesn't look like a human being is the makings of a general!
