Chapter Eleven, Alex Shots the Halberd

Shooting a halberd at the gate can be said to be one of the most famous events in China's Three Kingdoms era.

This is also a very colorful chapter in Lu Buyong's name. They were far apart and set up a painted halberd at the camp gate, and then used bows and arrows to shoot the small branch of the painted halberd.

Then, an arrow hits the target.

It can be said that he is a marksman.

Hearing that he was going to use this comparison, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a lot more relaxed.

If nothing else, Arash is a first-class archer. How could he lose, right?

It would be so funny if Archer lost to Rider in shooting.

Alexander probably interpreted this idea from Fujimaru Ritsuka's smile. With a relaxed smile, he casually put forward a counterargument: "It's not that simple. This is gambling."

Alexander smiled and explained to everyone the new gameplay he had just thought of.

Generally speaking, when you hear that there are shooting competitions and gambling elements, the first reaction is: each side will send out a person to see who can shoot accurately.

Just as Fujimaru Ritsuka had planned before, Alexander would suffer too much in this way.

So, he thought of a new way to play.

I borrowed the emerald-colored spear from Cu Chulainn and stood in the distance, about five hundred meters away. For Archer's followers, this is a very close distance and the shot will not miss. But for Rider,

...That's not necessarily the case.

At least, I have never heard of Alexander having any particularly famous archery talent.

Then, Fujimaru Ritsuka came to gamble.

Bet on whether Alexander can hit the target from a distance.

Of course, in order to avoid cheating, Fujimaru Ritsuka needed to write down in advance whether he wanted to win or not win the bet, then put the piece of paper in front of Alexander and hold it, and then Alexander shot the arrow.

This avoids the situation where Fujimaru changes his tune temporarily or Alexander misses the shot on purpose.

Fair to both parties.

Yagi Xuezai's mind was spinning rapidly, trying to find out something related to probability in this game to choose an option with the highest success rate...

If we guess that Alexander can hit the target, then Alexander's victory condition is that he fails to hit the target. Vice versa. From this distance, can Rider hit the target? It's hard to say.

The other servants present, Saber and Lancer, are not servants known for their shooting. No one has ever tried archery, and they don’t know what their shooting accuracy is. As for Archer, he can definitely hit the target at this distance...

The more I think about it, the more I feel I can’t figure it out. Yagi Yusei is really not good at this kind of witty battle scenes. He has seen some works depicting gambling, but the focus is either on the polygonal chin of the male character and the complex zawa.

The description, or the angry expression of the female character. By the way, these are two different works.

As a result, his experience was put to no use.

"At this time, I can definitely hit it. Well, it's only five hundred meters."

Oda Nobunaga shouldered his musket and shrugged.

"I, Okita, have never used long-range weapons, so I don't know. Mr. Hijikata should be able to give a correct estimate."

Okita Souji said this with a bit of regret, his eyes drooped, and he poked his katana on the ground with both hands, looking a little disappointed.

Mr. Hijikata, of course, refers to one of the pillars of the Shinsengumi, Deputy Chief Hijikata Toshizo. Anyone who knows the Shinsengumi will not be unaware of this person.

"Hijikata! Hey hey hey..."

I don’t know why, when Fujimaru Ritsuka heard this name, her expression felt a little... um... um... hard to describe. In short, she smiled in a way that made people feel uncomfortable.

Considering that she learned about the Shinsengumi from "Hakuoki", we can probably guess what she is thinking.

"At times like this, I won't interfere! Even if we lose, we can just beat him up and grab him."

Cu Chulainn Lancer now had no gun, put his hands on his hips, poked his chest with his thumb, and showed a frank smile.

Yagi Xuezai smiled bitterly: "We still have to fight in the end?"

"Well……"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was very troubled, or rather, because she had no idea how the opponent would move or what his level was, so... well, it was hard to choose.

Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but look at the archers present. Oda Nobunaga looked expectant. Of course, she was looking forward to the interesting developments. Arash smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, just choose according to your intuition. No.

A sure-win option.”

Look at Orion again, this big sister is looking here with the innocent eyes of a little girl who has not yet grown up, without speaking.

"Okay! It's decided!"

After making up his mind, Fujimaru Ritsuka wrote a note behind Alexander's back. Since there was no paper, he just found a big piece of broken wood, wrote it on, and then put it on Alexander's back.

By the feet.

The bow in Alexander's hand was the standard equipment of the Roman army. It was probably "conquered" from Caesar when he conquered Tuanzi.

He opened the bow, tried the feel, drew an arrow directly from the quiver, and shot it out.

The whole movement was very neat, and the arrow flew with a crisp sound, just hitting the blade of the green gun.

"Okay, let me see what you guessed."

Alexander hummed a little tune and opened the bark written by Fujimaru Ritsuka.

It clearly says: Medium.

"Oh? Congratulations, you won."

Although he likes to conquer, he is not an unreasonable person. Knowing that Chaldea needs these supplies, he has to make things difficult for them. Alexander in his youth and Iskandar in his adult years have slightly different mental states.

This is a game to begin with. If someone wins, just be more open-minded and let them go.

"Why did you write that I was shot? I thought you would be troubled."

Indeed, for Alexander, a rider, there is a possibility of being able to hit or not being able to hit. After all, riders are not famous for their excellent shooting skills.

This little puzzle is also part of Alexander's joke.

"Because... I believe Alexander will definitely shoot!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded and gave him a beautiful trusting smile.

Believe in your followers unconditionally, believe that they can do it, and don’t doubt it.

Although simple, but...

Alexander felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "So I am so trusted by others. Thank you, Master."

Of course, I would like to add that the real meaning of Fujimaru Ritsuka's words is: Even Orion's weak and unreasonable shooting posture can hit the enemy. How could a battle-hardened warrior like Alexander be able to hit the enemy?

Missed!

Unknowingly, Orion's archery skills have become a very unbelievable feature.

"I'm willing to admit defeat, Master. Congratulations to you for snatching supplies from me, Alexander - one day in the future, you can be proud of this."

Alexander laughed and directed Spartacus to bring out the dumplings he had plundered before.

Ma Xiu took stock and found that the quantity was roughly right. Counting the previous consumption, it was almost the same.

The only thing left now is how to bring these dumplings back to Chaldea.

That is... the [stronghold] in Yagi Yukisai's room in the so-called Mansion of the Brave.
