Glory Riding and Cutting

Time passed in a hurry, and the competition quickly reached the final stage, which was the spear riding competition that Ronan was least good at.

Ronan played quite easily in the team match. Basically no one could last long with the cooperation of him and Aldridge. Only the team formed by Weslow and his comrades did little damage to Ronan. Small trouble, but it didn't stop Ronan from winning.

Ronan also completed the tasks released by the system, that is, the extra task of winning the team championship and achieving all victories without a single player being knocked down, and gained a lot of experience and honor points, as well as his favorite The extra attribute points, which he points to the charm, increase the number of troops, and after upgrading to another level, you can choose new specialties and add another level of commanding skills.

During this period, Kress and Yatan also contacted Ronan. The two teams have all entered the city through reasonable means at this time. Ronan asked them to be more stable for the time being, and to inquire more about the information in the city, and do a good job in advance. The investigation work, and everything else will be officially launched after he returns. Because of this competition, Ronan's funds have increased several times than he expected, and the follow-up plan should be able to proceed more smoothly.

After the lance competition was declared to start, it indicated that the athletics meeting was only a few days away, because the lance competition was an event with the least number of participants, and only knights with noble status could participate.

The most important thing is that the spear riding competition is different from the previous two events. It is often held alone, and almost every time a spear riding competition is held, someone will be seriously injured. In the end, for the sake of his own life, he did not sign up for the competition.

Ronan's match was in the afternoon, so he could happily watch how the other contestants played and secretly learn a few hands on the spot.

At this time, the two participating knights have already entered the arena under the voice of the commentator, because the spear riding competition is the most popular and most anticipated game, so Marquis Yuri arranges a commentator for each game to introduce to everyone Participating personnel resume and explain the thrilling and exciting competition process.

Two knights in full armor were ready. Both of them were wearing thick plate armor. The blouse above the breastplate had their own family crest painted on it. A helmet with feathers on top.

The two sorted out the equipment for the last time, and then took over the special lance and shield from the attendants. The lance used in the competition was shorter than the regular lance, and it did not have a sharp metal tip, but was wrapped in cloth. The round wood, and this type of lance is more fragile than the actual combat lance, and is easier to break, in order to reduce the casualties caused by the game.

The rules of the spear riding competition are relatively complicated. If you fall off the horse, you will lose directly, but if the two people have not fallen off the horse after more than three rounds of fighting, the winner will be judged by the position where the two hit each other, such as hitting the armor. One point is scored, and two points are scored for hitting the face, but so far there are very few Tiewa who are hit on the head and can continue the game, basically fainted on the spot.

If the two sides have the same score, then the referee will judge which side's attack is heavier and more deadly. Generally speaking, it is calculated by the damage of the lance, because the greater the damage, the heavier the attack.

And if neither side hits the effective position of the target, then the referee will judge by the posture of the body and the degree of control over the horse when the two cross each other. The better side wins. Of course, this rarely happens. People are hedging, and the chances of being able to dodge it are really slim.

There is also a taboo in the spear riding competition, that is, you must never attack the opponent's horse, otherwise you will be directly judged as a loser, and if you attack the horse maliciously, you will be shamed by everyone, and you will lose your honor and reputation. In the future, people will poke the spine when they go there, because maliciously attacking horses can easily cause serious injuries or even death to the knight.

"Is the Eckert knight ready?" The knight with the iron barrel helmet raised his lance, indicating that he was ready.

"Has Knight Philip finished his preparations?" The knight wearing a feathered helmet also raised his lance, indicating that he was ready.

"Okay, then the game is about to begin!" After confirming that the two were ready, the referee blew the whistle and raised the command flag in his hand.

The command flag was waved down fiercely, and the two knights immediately rode their horses and galloped. The equestrian competition is very particular, and the start just now also needs to be scored.

The two rushed towards each other along the straight wooden fence in the middle. During the process, they slowly raised the lance in their hands, and inserted the tail end of the lance into the special buckle at the armpit of the armor. This buckle can help The knights stabilize the lance in their hands, and it can also reduce the impact force, preventing the knight from injuring his arm or even falling off the horse due to excessive force.

Once this kind of buckle was invented, it immediately received praise from all knights. There is basically a buckle on that position on the current knight armor, which is very practical.

The two knights clamped their lances tightly under their armpits, pointing the spears parallel to the opponent's direction, with the spears pointing upwards slightly. It seemed that they both hit the opponent's face in the first round and scored two points first, or knocked the opponent off the horse directly. thought.

The two were getting closer and closer, all holding their breath tightly, staring at the opponent through the gap in the mask, and even sweating a little from the hands inside the arm armor.

"Crack!" The crisp sound of the lance being snapped resounded throughout the arena. The wooden spear head hit the helmet, and it exploded with a bang. The second half of the lower buckle.

The two hit each other's faces almost at the same time, their upper bodies leaned back sharply, and they lost consciousness and fell off their horses. But Knight Eckert was more lucky. His foot was pulled by the stirrup, and he landed a few seconds later than Knight Philip. The referee therefore awarded Knight Eckert the winner.

In just one round, the first round was over. Ronan's tooth was scratched a little. The two men were hit by the visor and it hurt to look at it. The horse was full of momentum, and the huge force directly hit the helmet. They probably all had a concussion, how strong is that head? They can still not pass out after being attacked like this.

Shields are used in the spear riding competition, but most knights do not know how to use shields. Shields are more like a remnant of an ancient rule. Ornament, although using a shield to block will not foul, but it will be looked down upon by the new generation of knights.

But Ronan has already made up his mind. Since the shield is allowed to be used, then don't care what others think. Usually Ronan doesn't know how to use it, but if it really doesn't work, Ronan will definitely use the shield to protect his head. Don't want to get hit with a concussion.
