Chapter 9 You will lose
After the meeting ended, Link began to gain confidence in the future. The confidence that was originally broken by the library hooded male missionary today was regained.
Judging from their speeches and performances, the white pigeon and the fox have the confidence and confidence of a noble or wealthy family in this era and should have received a good education.
Gray Rabbit also looks like a rich girl with no worries about food and clothing, but from her description of family members, the ingredients seem to be very complicated. I noticed that she mentioned that she might live on an island.
“Islands in high latitude areas.”
Link touched his nose, and he was still the only thing he could do was to do.
As for wild horses, they should be members of a tribal member on some eastern grassland.
The common language is widely popular in the New World, only the snow-capped tribes in the north of the mainland and the grassland tribes in the northeast of the mainland will use interracial languages.
"No matter what, these can only be considered as the possibility of leaving a way out for yourself. The most urgent thing is to play the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow's game can only be won, no defeat!" Link summoned his men to come for a meeting.
"Boss, what kind of opponent is this time?" Tony was curious why Link was so serious.
"A noble reserve knight."
The subordinates were all convinced that if they were the members of the Knights who had been famous for a long time, they might be able to attract their attention, but a reserve that had not yet joined the Knights would not be a warning to them.
Link opened his mouth and would definitely not tell them the conversation with the old manager. After all, he never considered deliberately losing the day after tomorrow.
The old manager said it lightly. He could get a golden snake coin as long as he lost the game, but both parties involved in the fight had to sign a life-and-death contract. The other party, a nobleman with a long-term future, dared to sign a life-and-death contract to fight a gladiator. He would definitely have a trump card to win.
Link, who has always despised these nobles, doesn't believe that they will let their lives go after victory.
The experience of pirates over the past six months told Link that he could only trust himself forever.
"How is the inquiry today?"
"Not very good. The port area will be closed in one month. After most of the ships have left, there are not many fast ships except merchant ships. I have asked them all, and they will not accept the "couple" ones."
"Clippers" literally mean ships with more sails, less loads and fast speeds, except for a small amount used to transport goods, are mostly favored by pirates and used to do business without capital.
"Boss, today we saw a large number of guards entering the city, and it seemed that some big shot was coming."
"The city gates have been taken over, and half of the two professional soldiers are cavalry."
According to the military system of the Nord Kingdom, 10 people are a small team, 50 people are a squadron, and five squadrons are a squadron. More than two squadrons can be called legions. In the absence of war, no other lords except the king cannot assemble soldiers of a legion.
Professional soldiers are different from recruited soldiers. Professional soldiers only need training and do not produce, and their combat effectiveness crushes the soldiers who were forcibly recruited.
Bad news, all bad news.
"It seems that it will take a few days to be stable, and wait until the battle after the day is over."
After several orders, everyone scattered.
The next day, Link, who was still sleeping in, was awakened by Tony's door pushing.
"Boss, the streets and alleys are talking about your battle with that little white man tomorrow."
"What a little white face?" Link took the crude propaganda page from Tony's hand. The simple paper read "Lily Knight vs. Exotic Barbarians". There were two villains below the text, one was a knight-like villain riding on a horse and the other was a hairy monster with a thick head and thigh, roaring towards the sky and roaring at the chest.
"Outstanding! Is this just a little trick? What's the use of agitating me?"
Link wasn't very angry. The Lily Knight didn't sound like a serious Knight, but he didn't know what trump cards he had.
"You have to be careful of the old housekeeper's fraud."
Thinking of the old guy with silver hair and back, a trace of gloom flashed in Link's eyes.
Time soon came the next day.
It is a sunny day, which is an excellent business day for the arena.
In order to guard against the old housekeeper's plot, Link has not eaten the food provided by the dormitory of the Gladiator since yesterday. He only ordered his subordinates Lake brothers to go to the bakery in the port area to buy food early this morning.
In fact, Link was a little over-concerned. Old Harvey was more worried than him whether the game could go smoothly.
Because today, the real master of the arena, Lord Gnall Louis will be here to enjoy the face.
Originally, Old Harvey just said casually to the reserve knight Avendyuer, but he didn't expect that the Duke would really be there to see you.
Of course, this is not because of the face of Lao Harvey or the unknown reserve knight, but because he was forced to come over by his own daughter.
Debbie Louis, the jewel in the hand of the Duke. Although the Duke has three sons, the only daughter he favors the most.
The arena show is one of the few exciting entertainment methods that the Duke's daughter can watch, and it just happens to meet the city's publicity, how can Debbie Louis miss it?
A brigade of guards had already taken over the arena, and more than 200 professional soldiers ensured that no one could threaten the audience in the Duke's box.
At Miss Debbie's strong request, the security supervisor gave up the act of clearing the audience, so the scene was noisy, but Miss Debbie was very satisfied with her behavior of having fun with the people.
"Sir, look, that knight has such a white face, it looks even whiter than me!"
The game is still a little while before, and the reserve Knights of Evan Yudil arrived at the venue in advance to prepare.
Today, he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt with flap cuffs and a specially customized bow tie. He looked very energetic in his dinner uniform. Even his face was covered with popular white powder, which looked so exquisite that he was here to attend a dance.
"My preparations were not in vain!" After entering the venue, Alvin pretended to scan the stands inadvertently, not only discovered today's target: the inspector general of the Valkyrie Knights, but also had unexpected surprises.
"That young girl by the window should be the only daughter of the Duke. Seize the opportunity!" Alvin reminded himself fiercely in his heart.
The duke in the box was chatting with the inspector general of the Valkyrie Knights. Out of respect for the National Knights, he invited the inspector general to sit with him.
When Alvin was preparing for the Cavaliers to appear, he attracted the attention of the audience, and even the inspector-general next to the duke smiled.
Looking at his daughter again, Miss Debbie was standing sideways to hold the window, staring at the boy with all concentration.
The Duke felt unhappy for no reason.
He was sitting relaxed and leaned down, and an old manager, who was bent down and listened immediately appeared beside him.
"Whose kid belongs to this guy?"
"Baron Paul Duyur's legitimate son, the reserve knight, has a bad reputation."
Old Harvey answered concisely.
