Hoddis came on stage and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
As one of the branch leaders of the 'Rose Knights', Hoddis is not an unknown person.
The people of Fort Bear, who have always had "courteous exchanges" with Fabol all the year round, are quite familiar with several branch leaders of the "Order of the Rose", including Hodis.
Fifteen years ago, the fifteen-year-old Hoddis joined the "Rose Knights" and was once the most promising young man in the "Rose Knights" until... Dirkmer appeared.
In just one battle, he defeated the three captains and deputy captains of Tesin's "Dragon Blood Knights", creating a reputation far beyond anyone else's.
Naturally, Dirkmer became the general leader of the "Rose Knights".
And Hodis, who has always been favored?
He became the branch leader.
According to rumors, Hodis failed to awaken because of this and has been stuck in the second-order realm.
However, even so, Hoddis is still the strongest person in the "Rose Knights" except Dirkmer.
Moreover, Hodis and Dirkmer have a very good personal relationship.
When Dirkmer first joined the Order of the Rose, Hodis was Dirkmer's instructor.
When Dirkmer became the head of the 'Rose Knights', Hodis was promoted by Dirkmer to become his deputy, handing over all the big and small things of the 'Rose Knights' to the former instructor.
.
It can be said that there is a lot of trust.
Hodis did not disappoint Dirkmo and kept the entire knight order in order.
"It's actually Hodith who's in the first scene?"
Fabol's nobles were a little surprised.
According to their thinking, they should first send someone to test Goethe, and then send Hodis to make the final decision.
Donald Dot was not surprised.
As a person who was specially trained in the "Rose Family", he was fully aware of Dirkmo's dirty deeds.
Back then, it was almost certain that Hoddis would awaken his bloodline again.
Why did it fail?
Of course it was Dirkmo's fault.
Although it is very hidden, there are still traces to follow.
"Maybe we can take advantage of this."
Donald Dot glanced at Hoddis on the ring, with pity in his eyes - the other person was also from the 'Rose Family' and was a genius with a promising future.
And now?
With his gray temples and old face, he doesn't look like he is thirty years old at all. Instead, he looks like he is in his fifties or sixties.
"How pitiful."
Donald Dot shook his head and sighed.
While warning myself not to be like this, I perfected my plan in my mind.
However, it was disrupted by the cheers that followed.
The young man from the 'Rose Family' looked up.
Goethe walked out of the contestants' tunnel and stepped onto the ring.
"Come on, Master Goethe!"
"Come on, Master Goethe!"
…
As the home court, Goethe won the welcome of the people present in Bearsburg as soon as he showed up.
Goethe wore a simple and honest smile unique to the Gram family. After greeting everyone around him, he looked at the opponent in front of him.
Red leather armor, long boots, and a sword on his waist.
The hilt of the sword is translucent and the scabbard is clean.
The opponent's slender palm was resting on the hilt of the sword.
Hodith, after awakening his bloodline, gained extraordinary speed, especially his 'fast sword', which made him difficult to guard against.
Information about the other party came to Goethe's mind.
Hoddis bowed very politely.
"Hodes, the branch leader of the Order of the Rose, has met His Excellency Goethe Wein."
Saying such words, Hoddis suddenly untied the sword from his waist and threw it straight to the stands - where the members of the "Rose Knights" caught the sword, their faces full of excitement.
Everyone looked at this scene and was stunned.
Could it be?!
In the box, Donald Dot and Dortnier Mag sat upright.
"Although I'm famous for my fast sword, what I'm better at is 'unarmed combat'!"
"I will not hold back against a respectable opponent like you!"
"I will defeat you the best way I can!"
Hoddis said with a serious face.
really!
Donald Dot and Dotniel Mag narrowed their eyes.
"Hodis actually chose the bare-handed way?"
"Why didn't anyone in the family find out?"
"yes……"
"Dilkemo!"
Donald Dot was stunned for a moment and then came back to his senses.
Then, the young man from the 'Rose Family' sneered.
"Isn't that stupid?"
"You also know how to win people's hearts with some small favors. No wonder Hodis is willing to sacrifice his life for you - but the more this happens, the more Hodis will hate you when he knows the truth!"
“This is so great!”
Thinking of this, in the heart of this young man from the 'Rose Family', half of the plan has been completed.
When Dortnil Mag came back to his senses, his eyes were full of regret.
Hoddis and the twenty-seven-year-old are of the same generation.
When they were young, when the relationship between the 'Rose Family' and the 'Tulip Family' eased, the two of them studied together.
Therefore, Dortnir Mager knew very well how outstanding the opponent's swordsmanship talent was.
But now?
He actually chose the bare-handed way!
Unconsciously, the eldest son of the Tulip family turned his head and glanced at Dirkmo.
At this time, Dirkmo was looking forward to the ring with excitement and pride. He didn't even notice the glance of the eldest son of the Tulip family. All he could say in his mouth was 'Kill him, kill him'.
Talk to yourself.
The eldest son of the Tulip family withdrew his gaze.
He didn't want to look at this disgusting idiot again.
That touch of pride had already told him the answer.
"Oh, is it because of jealousy?"
"Choose to use your 'power' to mislead Hodis?"
"How disgusting!"
The eldest son of the Tulip family also looked at Hodis with a hint of pity.
However, it is just a trace of compassion.
Other than that, there are no more emotions.
As the eldest son of the Tulip family, he hopes that Dirkmo will do more 'misleading' things - this is simply adding to the Tulip family's success.
Of course, the eldest son of the Tulip family was also full of curiosity about this first competition.
He was a little curious about Hodith's unarmed fighting ability.
Even if Dirkmer misled Hodis out of jealousy, Hodis' unarmed fighting ability must not be bad.
Otherwise, it is impossible to be misled.
The eyes of the eldest son of the Tulip family became focused.
Goethe, who was standing on the ring, had a strange look in his eyes.
Is there such a good thing?
What he is best at is his bare hands.
The long sword at the waist?
Although it is not considered a decoration because it has been baptized as a 'warrior' for the first time, compared with his 'hand-to-hand combat', it is slightly stronger than a decoration.
"Do you want to compete in unarmed combat ability?"
he asked confirmingly.
"No!"
"I mean I'm unarmed and you can use weapons."
Hodith's tone was respectful.
His gray-haired temples and old face gave him a sense of humility.
But the other person's eyes are still bright.
A collection of indomitable tenacity.
Goethe laughed.
"You use your bare hands, and so do I."
"As a northerner, I never take advantage of others."
"and……"
"I happen to be just like you. Compared to a long sword, I'm better at using my bare hands!"
Such frank words made Hodis stunned.
Then, the old-looking knight bowed to Goethe again.
The surrounding northerners cheered again.
Northerners like this kind of honest man.
That kind of secretive guy is not worthy of publicity in the eyes of northerners.
Hearing the cheers around him, Goethe's smile grew wider - why didn't he lie and say that he was good at swordsmanship but not good at unarmed combat, and then win the game with unarmed combat?
Because there is no need!
Now, he is no longer unknown.
When he stands on this stage, information about him will definitely appear on the table of all forces.
Wherever you go, there will be traces.
Once clues are left, someone will naturally deduce enough clues.
Therefore, it is no secret that he is good at hand-to-hand combat.
After all, there are too many smart people in the world.
Instead of lying and being exposed, it is better to speak out openly at this time.
Moreover, look at the attitude of Hodis and the people around him.
The effect is quite good.
The cheers of the northerners and the astonishment of the Fabol nobles have already proved this.
The Grand Duke in the box even laughed.
Why does he like his nephew?
Apart from the fact that they are all members of the Ke family, it is naturally because of his nephew's intelligence and acting style - unlike his three sons, although they are extremely good, each of them is a bit extreme.
On the contrary, Goethe seems to have absorbed the strengths of his three sons and extremely downplayed the shortcomings.
The gift of the eldest son.
The forbearance of the second son.
The tenacity of the third son.
But without the eldest son's disciplined behavior, the second son's coldness and the third son's gambler's mentality.
How wonderful!
With Goethe here, the Ke family becomes complete!
It also allows me to...
Thinking of this, the Grand Duke smiled and sighed. He walked straight to the box window and shouted loudly——
"Come on, Goethe!"
Hearing the Archduke's voice, Goethe immediately looked back and smiled.
"Please wait a moment."
Goethe said to Hodis.
Hodith immediately made a gesture of invitation.
Goethe just turned around and turned his back directly to his opponent. He first waved to the Grand Duke, and then threw the long sword at his waist to his own box - Margarida Marg, who was standing on the balcony of the box, raised her hand.
He caught the long sword.
"careful!"
The second daughter of the Tulip family warned, with a look of deep worry on her face.
Of course, this was also discussed.
It's just that women's natural acting skills make people around them think it's real.
At least Dirkmer gritted his teeth.
"Hodis, kill him!"
The head of the 'Rose Knights' shouted loudly.
Hodith, who was standing on the ring, turned a deaf ear at this moment.
The old-looking knight stood there quietly, waiting for Goethe to turn around.
This scene made Dirkmo even more angry.
"Waste! Waste!"
"You're a loser who won't take a chance!"
Dirkmo roared in his heart.
However, soon, the head of the 'Rose Knights' calmed down again.
He didn't calm down on his own.
But he calmed down under the watchful eyes of Simulai Kedi.
The eldest son of the Grand Duke told the head of the 'Rose Knights' with his eyes that if you continue to disrupt the order of the arena, you will be thrown out - that serious look made Dirkmo know that Simlei Ke was not joking.
"snort!"
"Let you be proud for a while longer!"
"Sooner or later I will kill you!"
Dirkmo snorted coldly in his heart and looked at the ring again.
Then……
The head of the 'Rose Knights' saw Goethe and Margareta's flirting looks on the ring.
Crunch!
The armrest of the seat in his hand was directly crushed by the head of the 'Rose Knights'.
"mine!"
"This should all be mine!"
"Damn it! Damn it!"
The anger resurfaced again.
But after being suppressed by Simulai Ke, he couldn't get any outlet at all.
The head of the 'Rose Knights' was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He wanted to pull out his sword and cut all those who blocked him in two.
He wanted to bathe in the blood of his enemies and laugh heartily.
He wanted to make those who humiliated him bow to him.
But it can’t be done!
All you can do is be patient!
Can't do it!
endure!
Dirkmo's breath began to become disordered, and the sudden power in his body began to become more and more violent.
But when it reaches an extreme, everything calms down.
Dirkmo's breath became normal.
The power that seemed to be going berserk became peaceful.
Even Dirkmo himself truly calmed down.
The head of the 'Rose Knights' sat there with his eyes dazed.
"I haven't conquered this power yet?"
"How is this possible?"
An uneasiness rose from the heart of the head of the 'Rose Knights'.
He stopped looking at the ring, and he didn't notice that several people were quietly watching and sizing him up.
And in the arena, the first battle has already begun.
However, it is not a stormy battle.
It is full of 'etiquette'.
After Enmley Ke started—
Hodith rushed in front of Goethe in a flash. Most of the people present could not keep up with this speed. They could only see Hodith standing in front of Goethe as if teleporting.
The raised arm and clenched fist, like a war hammer, were rounded and smashed towards Goethe.
Goethe, however, stood still and did not move. He raised his hand and punched out.
Woo!
The dull sound of breaking through the air made the spectators closest to the arena feel their scalps go numb.
Hoddis looked even more horrified.
As the person directly facing him, he could feel how terrifying the power of Goethe's punch was.
But Hodith didn't dodge.
Or rather...
He can't dodge!
Once you dodge, you will definitely be exposed!
Resisting his instinct, Hoddis gritted his teeth and let the punch fall on his body. At the same time, he also punched Goethe himself.
Bang!
Amidst the coincidental sounds, Goethe stood on the spot and his body shook slightly, while Hodis took seven or eight steps back as if struck by lightning. After finally standing, Goethe's [Unarmed Combat (Extraordinary II)] gave him the extra bonus.
The attack began to rage inside Hodis' body, and the opponent's old face suddenly turned pale, and his body took a step back again.
Wow!
After a mouthful of blood spurted out, Hodis staggered and fell to the ground.
However, the branch leader of the 'Rose Knights' did not faint. He stood up reluctantly, looked at Goethe, and said in a very difficult tone: "I lost!"
After admitting defeat very simply, Hoddis walked off the ring.
The whole place was silent.
People were very surprised to see the first arena match end like this.
There was no fierce confrontation as imagined.
There was no long-lasting fierce battle as expected.
Just exchange one punch and it's over.
However, the northerners present were not disappointed, and they applauded and cheered for Goethe.
The Fabols also clapped for the sake of grace, but their expressions were quite cold.
Donald Dot had a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Dortnil Mag frowned.
Both of them noticed something was wrong.
But what exactly it is, I can't say.
The one who feels the most direct is of course Goethe.
He felt extremely awkward, just like when you were eating barbecue, you obviously picked up the salt shaker, but poured out the sugar from the salt shaker, and you didn't notice it until the roast was all oily.
After putting the roasted meat into my mouth, I was shocked to realize something was wrong.
"What are you hiding?"
“Suddenly it’s interesting!”
Goethe glanced at Hodis's back, and motioned calmly to Simlei Ke. On the surface, he raised his hand to welcome the applause and cheers of the people around him.
"Goethe wins the battle!"
"Congratulations Goethe!"
"Goethe, do you need a break?"
Emle Ke, as the host, walked up directly and asked.
"No, continue!"
Goethe shook his head and said.
"Well, since Goethe said to continue, let's..."
"The branch leader of the Order of the Rose challenges His Excellency Goethe Wein."
Before Enmlek could finish his words, another branch leader of the 'Rose Knights' jumped onto the ring.
Unlike Hodis.
Although the leader of the 'Rose Knights' branch in front of him was dressed in the same red leather armor as Hoddis, his behavior and attitude were not only rude, but his eyes were eager to try, full of a sense of arrogance, and his face was full of arrogance.
Looking impatient.
"Can we start?"
The other party asked Enmley Ke.
"sure!"
The second son of the Grand Duke said this.
The second son of the Grand Duke knew what the other party was planning.
It was just that after Goethe and Hoddis punched each other, it was impossible for them to be as uninjured as they appeared on the surface, and they must have endured it. The other party might even suspect that he and Goethe were acting, thus delaying the recovery of the injury.
This is actually the case!
No one knows how powerful Hodis's fists are than the branch leaders of the "Rose Knights".
Even the leader would be injured after being punched by Hoddis!
That's the leader!
And what about Goethe?
A person who is just about the same level as them!
Don’t be too far behind the group leader!
Therefore, Goethe must be pretending!
With this idea in mind, the opponent rushed towards Goethe before the Grand Duke's second son stepped off the ring.
"I'll take your head, remember it was you who killed you..."
Boom!
Thunder roared and lightning flashed.
The huge roar drowned out the other party's words.
In the scorching electric light, the charred corpse was shattered directly.
Goethe stood there and said calmly——
"Next!"
PS Feilong went to eat sheep and scorpions last night, and came back late. He got up late today too, and even later, so he didn’t write much... I’m in tears!
