spartan ancestor
Chapter 22
Ai Zhi clicked his tongue: "Several black laborers brought him here on a stretcher."
He did not hesitate to sarcasm: "As far as the characters of Das and his son are concerned, I can't tell whether Das is too obsessed with him, or his own father treats him as an abandoned son. However, those of them have deep feelings with him and share weal and woe." 'The loyal supporters of the party didn't come, but just by looking at the faces of the elders sitting above, you can tell whose cub has abstained from power."
While the two were talking, one of the many elders sitting in the middle of the auditorium slowly got up.
The warrior guarding the trial ground held up the ivory-like Aphrodite pipe: "Woo——"
The buzzing sound spread from the tube cavity, shaking the ground and the air, and the originally noisy proving ground suddenly became silent.
"The following announces the rules of this trial." The elder's voice was full of anger, and it was hard to tell that the man was covered with gray hair.
But even so, people in the middle and back seats can't hear clearly, but no one cares whether the audience understands the rules, this is for the players.
Yacintos was surrounded by the surging players and approached the auditorium. At this distance, he could finally see the face of the speaker. It was the veteran who pointed at Darth's father's nose and scolded him.
The elder's stern gaze went over his hooked nose: "Based on the recent events, the Senate discussed the form of the trial, and obtained the consent of the two kings and the five governors."
"In this trial, Parnon Mountain will be used as the trial venue. The contestants will accumulate their scores by capturing the trial badges on their opponents. After a day and a night, whoever returns here will have the most badges in their hands, and whoever has the most badges will win victory."
Yacintos couldn't help raising his eyebrows: It seems to be very fresh, isn't it just a change of venue, or a scuffle.
But this rule doesn't sound good for Darth. After all, according to the rules, everyone present is an opponent. He thought that since Darth showed up on the court, his father would somehow think of something...
Hyacinthus looked at the elder who was reading out the rules, suspecting that Das's father had thought the same way, but was broken by the elder sternly.
Yuan Hu stared at each other as if he had hatred for all the contestants: "At the same time, the military camp will also send out adult soldiers to 'hunt' in the mountains and forests."
There was a commotion among the players.
They have gained fearlessness against the enemy from training, and they are even full of eagerness for the fate of adult fighters. Some people whispered: "Then is there any reward for defeating adult fighters? This person is worth ten badges, right?"
"Ha!" The elder grinned the first smile from the beginning to the present—the kind full of ridicule: "Down?"
There was a lot of sarcasm in his tone: "You better not think that this trial is as simple as the previous ones. These fighters will no longer hold benevolent whips, but real weapons."
The contestants began to complain in a low voice, "Slapping the whip is still called kindness? Didn't several people be whipped to death every year in the past?" The veteran swept the audience with his squeegee-like gaze, especially pausing for a moment at Yacintos and the other direction : "Based on what happened recently, we all agree that it is better for one person to pass the trial, and we must not tolerate some people who fish in troubled waters!" Get the right to wear the red cloak that symbolizes the glory of the Spartans!"
Yacintos said calmly before Aizhi approached and whispered nervously: "It's not mainly aimed at us, don't worry. I bet you that the guy who just stared at him is paralyzing Darth in the other direction."
The old man loved to stare at him like this from a long time ago, and his dissatisfaction with him has always been fixed on "A good kid, why did he grow crooked without warning, and he actually thinks that Helos should be with us Spartans?" Equality".But Hyacinthus still didn't have much ill feeling towards him, because——
Aizhi watched helplessly as the elder turned his head abruptly after staring at Jacintos and Das, staring straight at Cleo who was sitting next to His Majesty the old Xan.
The stern-faced veteran almost pointed his nose and scolded "it's you" in front of the public, and sniffed heavily at Cleo: "Hmph!"
If the way he looked at Yacintos just now was that he saw the freak's "hate iron but not steel", then now he looks at trash with contempt.
Yacintos said optimistically, "I think this guy really likes me from the bottom of his heart."
Ai Zhi: "..."
"..." Cleo fidgeted for a while, unable to hide the embarrassment on his face.He shrugged his shoulders slightly, as if the red cloak he wore behind him and obtained directly because of his status as the crown prince suddenly became hot.
His Majesty Kesang's face was ashen, and he opened his mouth as if to say something, but the iron-faced elder had already turned his face back: "Let's go! Warriors - if you are worthy of this title, when the sun rises tomorrow, you will be victorious!" Bring it before our eyes."
The warrior blew the Avros pipe again, and amidst the tremors of the ground, hundreds of contestants started vigorously, and rushed towards the Parnon Mountain where the trial site was relying on like leopards.
Only Hyacinthus stood there calmly, stretching his neck, and was glared at by the iron-faced elder: "You—" the elder swallowed hard and cursed, "What are you doing?"
Yacintos looked around leisurely: "Don't worry, I want to see how Das is going?"
"—Get out!" The iron-faced veteran was still so angry that he grabbed the things at hand and slammed Jacintos on the head.
Hyacinthus was forced to take a few steps forward, but was intercepted by Aizhi who turned back.
Aizhi also ran halfway before realizing that the big highness next to her was gone. At this time, she couldn't help but rolled her eyes while grabbing Hyacinthus' wrist: "Stop watching the show, the trial venue has changed suddenly, Paar We have never explored the terrain of Nongshan Mountain, and the sooner we go, the sooner we can seize the opportunity—and, in this trial, your Highness and I are also in a competitive relationship."
"Well... I understand what you mean," Hyacinthus moved his steps condescendingly, and said after leaving the iron-faced elder's listening range, "according to the situation of this elder Tiedale, this time The Trial Senate is not prepared to intervene in any moth - or prepared, but died. If so, I also look forward to a fair competition with you. But always be careful, even if I worry too much, I still think It is unreasonable for Darth to choose to participate in the trial."
Aizhi wanted to rush to the mountains as soon as possible, but Hyacinthus took his time, so they separated halfway.
Along the long path, Hyacinthus even went to the Temple of Artemis at the foot of Mount Parnon before going up the mountain, and then slowly entered the mountain.
His reason is very simple. As early as when he was a child, he was already familiar with the terrain of the many mountains surrounding Sparta on three sides, and he didn't need to set foot on them.
And who said the early bird gets the worm?He would rather be a praying mantis catching cicadas, the oriole in the back waiting for its prey to feed itself.
The vegetation on Mount Parnon is sparse and dense, and Jacintos skillfully followed the bushes half a person's height into the lush forest, all the way up without stopping.
During the period, I picked up the arrows and stones that the birds who came early fought and fell, and didn't stop sneaking until the bushes stopped abruptly somewhere, and turned back unhurriedly to tap the harvest.
Five quiveres full of arrows, three small pouches containing first aid herbs and emblems.
The latter was because he "surprised" to meet three people of the same way while walking, and kindly "borrowed" and "picked up" their badges by the way.
There was no longer thick undergrowth ahead, but a few strides ahead, at the risk of a brief exposure, could burrow into a patch of fern that stretched deep into the woods.
Hyacinthus carried the quiver and the pouch on his back, gripped the unsheathed straight-edged dagger, and sprinted towards the bracken with one stride—
"!" Aizhi, who flitted from the fern to the bush, stared at Hyacinthos in relative motion in astonishment.
This is fucking embarrassing.
The two stopped their pace at the same time, turned around suddenly, each held the weapon in their hand, and faced the opponent who passed by them.
"...such a large Mount Parnon, what are the chances that we will encounter it?" Ai Zhi was a little speechless, but did not put down his weapon.
Yacintos confronted him for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Do you want to compete now? It's earlier than I expected."
According to his expectation, such a large Parnon Mountain is enough for him and Aizhi to develop without interfering with each other, until finally, when the next day is approaching dawn, everyone's pockets are filthy rich, and they will compete again.
But, see you all——
Hyacinthus and Aizhi turned their hilts almost at the same moment, and the back of the dagger was slightly tilted, reflecting the bright light in the sunlight.
The muddy ground between the bushes and ferns splashed with mud, and the small pool of water accumulated in the puddle was instantly trampled into snow waves. Aizhi's straight-edged short sword cut down to the emblem on the chest of Hyacinthus , Hyacinthus suddenly withdrew his hand in the middle of reaching the blade, and kicked Aizhi's right ankle with a short body.
Both of them fell to the ground due to inertia. Before Aizhi raised his head, an arrow whizzed by and pierced deeply into the nearby ground. Hyacinthus said lowly and hastily, "Into the grass."
He was the first to roll into the dense fern bushes, and then quickly jumped up like a cat, half-buried in the fern bushes, and slid into the depths of the fern bushes as the wind blew the grass silently.
Aizhi followed closely behind, and they walked through the bracken bushes almost without thinking, which was less than half the distance of the Spartan Acropolis, before stopping at a blind spot hidden by two big trees.
Aizhi looked at his right arm, where the clothes were cut by a sharp arrow: "I didn't even see clearly, was that an adult soldier just now?"
"I don't know, but this is indeed an arrow from the barracks." Yacintos pressed his back against the tree, and handed the hidden weapon that he pulled out before rolling into the grass to Ai Zhi, "Look at the engraving under the arrow handle."
As Ai Zhi took it, he rubbed his ankle. He brought the arrow close to his eyes and looked: "Is there medicine on it?"
This is a bit exaggerated, if it is poison.Ai Zhi took a sniff, and the tense nerves relaxed: "It's just drugged. Then the one just now was the archer?"
"I don't know." Hyacinthus played with the dagger in his hand, looking a little careless, "I actually didn't understand why he shot arrows when we were fighting. Could it be..."
Ai Zhi's heart skipped a beat: "Assassination?"
Hyacinthus: "Persuade?"
He did not hesitate to sarcasm: "As far as the characters of Das and his son are concerned, I can't tell whether Das is too obsessed with him, or his own father treats him as an abandoned son. However, those of them have deep feelings with him and share weal and woe." 'The loyal supporters of the party didn't come, but just by looking at the faces of the elders sitting above, you can tell whose cub has abstained from power."
