Chapter three hundred and sixty first hand-to-hand combat competition
The location of the Achia Military Camp is southwest of the Rock Castle. Judging from the architectural layout of the castle, it is strictly divided into military areas, residential areas and commercial areas. Therefore, although a large number of people poured in, it did not cause much chaos.
Especially the area around the military camp is very orderly and there are no homeless beggars or vagrants to be seen.
When Bolton brought Zhao Xi to the Aqiya military camp, it was already dark. A large number of lights were lit in the camp, and groups of fully armed soldiers and archers could be seen inside. They were obviously well prepared.
Be prepared to fight at any time.
The military system of the Human Alliance in the Plane of Destiny is divided into squads, squadrons, regiments, brigades, divisions and legions. A standard squad consists of 10 warriors or archers including the captain. 10 squads form a squadron, and 10
A squadron forms a regiment, then 3 regiments form a brigade, 3 brigades form a division, and 3 divisions form a corps!
The establishment of the Giant Rock City Guards is a brigade with 3,000 soldiers, subordinate to the three regiments of Heavy Rain, Gale, and Thunder. Since many soldiers were sacrificed in the previous defense battle, at least half of the City Guards are now
As a new recruit, the situation is not optimistic.
Bolton arranged Zhao Xi into the first team of the Ninth Squadron of the Thunder Wing. This team lost almost all its strength in the last battle and had just been reorganized. Therefore, the team was full of new recruits, and only the captain was
A level 17 veteran warrior.
The captain named David was surprised by Zhao Xi's joining, because Zhao Xi was sent by Bolton himself, and Bolton is the captain of Viscount Gloria's personal guard. He also serves as the deputy brigade commander of the city guard.
, he is the top big shot in the entire Rock Castle.
It was precisely because of this big sign that after Bolton left, David appointed Zhao Xi as the deputy captain of the team in front of all the other soldiers, so that he could take over the captain's position after he died in battle.
Although Zhao Xi's rank is considered low among a group of recruits, because of this position, he was assigned to a small independent room and did not have to crowd with other soldiers in a large barracks with turbid air.
It was just this special treatment that made the soldiers in the first team feel aggrieved.
And this jealousy and unhappiness erupted when the first team gathered around the campfire for dinner at night.
"Hey! The new vice-captain. My name is Lu Xiong. How about we compare notes?"
A burly soldier wiped his mouth, suddenly stood up and said to Zhao Xi, who was drinking soup: "It is good for your health to move your muscles and bones after eating!"
System prompt: Do you want to accept Lu Xiong’s challenge?
Easter egg mission?
Zhao Xi was stunned for a moment. This kind of randomly triggered mission that has little to do with the side plot is called an Easter egg mission in the game. After breaking it, there may be a small reward. Maybe it will be hit on the head and make you a little embarrassed.
But it doesn't do much harm to yourself.
"good!"
The soldiers nearby immediately started to cheer and shouted: "Let's compare and see which one is our deputy captain, or Lu Xiong who is better at fighting!"
Since Zhao Xi had only activated the Holy Healing skill, he could not tell the opponent's level without insight. But judging from the size of this warrior named Lu Xiong, he must have a higher level than him.
Zhao Xi speculated that the other party should have been the most powerful candidate for vice-captain, but he did not expect that he, a "connected person", would take it over forcefully, and he must be unconvinced.
He couldn't help but secretly sigh at the power and ingenuity of the mission system of "Glory". A small NPC character that could be said to be insignificant was actually given such a high level of AI and character settings.
This gave Zhao Xidu some illusions. He was not playing a game, but had traveled to a strange world and became a small person struggling to survive.
"What, vice-captain, are you afraid?"
Zhao Xi's hesitation made Lu Xiong think that he was scared, and he became more and more proud: "If you admit defeat, forget it!"
Everyone burst out laughing.
David frowned. Although he could scold Lu Xiong, in this case, Zhao Xi would no longer have any prestige in the team, which would violate his original intention.
Just when the captain was wondering if his decision was wrong, Zhao Xi confirmed the task, then stood up calmly and asked: "How do you want to compete?"
Lu Xiong did not expect that Zhao Xi would actually rise up to challenge, but he became even more excited. He clenched his fists and cracked his knuckles, saying: "Let's just fight with bare hands. It's not good to hurt people with weapons.
"
Fighting with bare hands?
Zhao Xi suddenly laughed. He took two steps around the bonfire, stood in the open space next to it, and said to Lu Xiong: "Okay, then let's play bare-handed fighting, but it's not interesting to just fight, so how about a little prize?"
"
At this time, Lu Xiong certainly would not back down: "How to bet?"
Zhao Xi looked at his empty backpack and said, "Let's bet 1 silver and 5 coppers!"
He only had so much money on him and all of it was pledged.
"It's a bet!"
Lu Xiong roared, took off his leather armor and weapons, and at the same time took out the coins and handed them to David: "Captain, please be a witness!"
Zhao Xi followed suit, taking off his armor and depositing his money with David.
David said a little helplessly: "This is a military camp, you must pay attention to the rules and don't go too far!"
What he said was actually to Lu Xiong, and it was a veiled warning.
Because no matter in terms of size, body shape or level, Lu Xiong had the upper hand. He was nearly a head taller than Zhao Xi. His "chiluo" upper body muscles were tightly knotted, and his dark skin contained tyrannical power.
On the other hand, Zhao Xi, although he is not the kind of weak and useless character, is still dwarfed by the top lane Xiong.
At this time, many soldiers from other squads who were having dinner nearby gathered around to watch the fun. When they heard that Lu Xiong and Zhao Xi were going to have a bare-handed fighting competition, they all laughed.
From their point of view, there is no suspense about winning or losing in this competition.
"How do you compare level 2 and level 5?"
"This vice-captain of the first team can't do it!"
"I think he will definitely lose and be embarrassed!"
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded next to him: "You will definitely lose? I am optimistic about this new vice-captain. Do any of you dare to bet with me?"
Everyone couldn't help but turn around and saw a young archer walking in from the crowd of onlookers.
"It turns out to be a hunter, Druid. How do you want to bet? I'll bet with you!"
"I want to place a bet too!"
The archer named Xiao De had a sarcastic look on his lips, and said lightly: "I bet on Vice Captain Kaos to win. You bet on Lu Xiong to win. I will pay you whatever you bet!"
"Fuck, I'm afraid of you!"
Someone immediately jumped out: "I bet 3 silver, Lu Xiong wins!"
"I want 2 silvers, Lu Xiong wins!"
"I also bet 3 silver, and you will lose to death!"
"Then I'll join in the fun, and I'll give you 1 silver for a little fun!"
These soldiers are obviously not rich, but if you put together 1 silver and I have 2 silver, the archer actually bets at least 5 gold, which is a huge sum of money!
Holding the bet in his hand, Xiao De said to Zhao Xi: "Vice Captain Kaos, if you win, I will share half of the money with you!"
When they were betting against each other just now, Zhao Xi had been watching and found it very interesting. Unexpectedly, this archer named Xiao De actually used his dividends to bet on himself to win. It was considered an incentive, right?
He laughed: "Then I'm welcome!"
Lu Xiong was so angry that his eyes bulged out: "Why are you so rude? I'll make him pay for all his underwear later!"
"Come, let's duel!"
Following his roar, the surrounding soldiers retreated one after another, leaving a large area for the two of them to compete. They were all very skilled in their movements. Obviously, similar situations often occurred.
Zhao Xi and Lu Xiong faced off almost ten steps apart, waiting only for the arbiter's order.
bite!
A silver coin popped out of David's hand, rolled and landed in the center of the field.
