The Survival Rules of NPCs

"What are you looking at?"

Will felt very uncomfortable with the way the knight's squire was looking at him. The squire was clearly looking at the top of his head, but for some reason, Will felt a chill run down his spine.

A level nine knight with 800 health points, could this guy be an extraordinary warrior?

Dog Egg sized up the other person, his brows furrowing slightly. When the other person replied, Dog Egg, who was originally from Northeast China, couldn't suppress his primal, explosive temper: "What's wrong with you? You call me a weakling the moment you open your mouth. When I turned around, I thought a skeleton had popped out of a grave. How much meat do you have? And you're wearing a tuxedo that's almost dragging on the ground..."

laugh!

A group of men watching the spectacle nearly burst out laughing. If it weren't for Will's intimidating reputation, they would have already roared with laughter. Even so, they were all red-faced from holding it in.

A group of ladies couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle. Eliza glanced at Gou Dan and couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle as well. The discomfort she had been feeling suddenly eased as her attention was diverted.

"Very well!" Will sneered. He was never one to engage in verbal battles; his reputation was earned through his fists. He took off his tailcoat and threw it to the servant beside him, who then respectfully handed him the knight's longsword.

"Draw your sword and let me see if your swordsmanship is as good as your mouth."

"So you admit I'm good with words?" Gou Dan scoffed. "Weakling, this is nothing. Back in the day, in the Silver rank of Zaun, I could outwit everyone with my words. Even a professional player who dared to steal his own lane couldn't protect his own mother."

Everyone: "........"

Does this kid not understand the situation? The other party has drawn his sword; if he accepts the challenge, it will be a life-or-death duel!

Still gloating over the little verbal advantage he just gained?

"Sir Will," Eliza couldn't help but speak up, "It's just a ball, isn't it a bit much to draw your sword and duel?"

"A knight's squire who dares to insult a knight must be prepared to pay the price. If the knight he serves is willing to come and apologize and then take him out of the banquet, I can withdraw my duel."

Everyone fell silent. Madman Will's fearsome reputation was indeed well-deserved. Who was this servant of? How dare he provoke this madman?

Elsie noticed the situation from a distance, but she didn't approach, letting things develop as they were. She had already done what she promised, so naturally she wouldn't stand up for someone who threatened her.

"Tch..." Gou Dan casually walked closer, picking his ear and said, "If you want to fight, then fight. Don't delay my invitation to the beautiful Lady of the City to dance."

My makeup skills are pretty good, but if too many people are watching, it's not impossible for me to be recognized. I'd better deal with this problem as soon as possible.

"Your weapon?" Will frowned.

"What weapon do you need to fight? Hurry up..." Dog Egg waved impatiently.

"Heh..." Will sneered, tossed the sword to his servant, stretched his limbs, and stepped forward.

Did they think this would save their lives?

He is a knight, but he was trained by his uncle from a young age, and he is also a level nine fighter!

In a sword duel, he'd give his opponent a swift and painless death. A fistfight? Ha... Does he really think he has no experience of beating a challenger to death with his bare fists at someone else's banquet?

Blood boiled, and a sinister grin spread across Will's grim face, like a man-eating monkey, sending chills down the spines of the onlookers.

"Miss Gina, you are the hostess of the banquet, so why don't you be the witness for this duel?" Will said to Gina with a smile.

"Okay!" Gina smiled sweetly, looking very expectant, and had the servants clear some space for her. "So, shall we get ready?"

A group of men stared blankly at Gina, who was smiling sweetly. Did she think this was just a simple martial arts performance?

Will, that madman, has a history of tearing people's tongues out at parties. Just thinking about that scene makes some people who know Will shudder.

call out!

As Gina's sweet voice announced "Ready to begin," Will instantly closed the distance.

The two were separated by five or six meters, but they were brought closer almost instantly. The skinny Will had a bloodthirsty smile on his face and threw a jab at that handsome face.

Most of the men in the Claire family are handsome and tall. He was almost abandoned by his mother when he was young because he was ugly and thin. He hates good-looking men of the same age. No matter how hard he tries or how hard he fights on the battlefield, he is secretly disliked by the ladies. But this pretty boy in front of him, just because he has a pretty face, can get the protection of women. Just now, the city lord's wife did not know him, but she tried to protect him.

Such a small and thin man could become a knight's squire, it must be because of connections or his face.

He made up his mind. He would punch that fair face until it was as white as a rotten persimmon, and then pull out his tongue while the other person was screaming in agony!

The overly fierce aura made it seem as if this punch would blow the fair-skinned boy's face to pieces, causing many women present to cover their eyes. Even Eliza couldn't bear to see the cruel scene, but Gina stared wide-eyed with great interest, seemingly looking forward to what was to come.

But in the next instant, Will's pupils suddenly contracted as he threw the punch.

Because no one could bear to see the other's face smashed, the scene didn't happen. The other person dodged it, and dodged it extremely well. He only dodged to the side when his own jab could not be withdrawn. His judgment was extremely calm and his footwork was extremely beautiful!

This is a fighter of considerable skill!

left!

Will's eyes flashed with bloodlust as he instantly judged the opponent's position. His left hand muscles bulged, and he suddenly delivered an elbow strike backward. Gou Dan, who was standing to the side, remained expressionless. This skinny monkey was quite strong. Even before the punch arrived, the wind ripples created by the punch in the air were visible to the naked eye. His strength attribute was at least twenty points or higher!

This time, Gou Dan didn't dodge directly. To avoid attracting attention to the big shots, she had to finish the fight quickly. She slightly shifted her body to the side, used her left hand to dodge the point of contact of Will's elbow strike, and after the forces were separated, she used the soft force of her fingertips to subtly control the trajectory of the opponent's force. After reaching an angle, she pressed down suddenly!

Beautiful fighting skills!

Elsie, watching from afar, couldn't help but secretly admire Will's strength, which was comparable to that of a barbarian warrior from the north. She herself would not dare to be so arrogant as to casually touch the opponent's strength with her fingertips. She knew very well how fragile fingers were; if she was not careful, her entire finger would shatter.

Will's body immediately lost its balance due to the sudden change in force, but his rich experience made him straighten his back immediately, trying to stabilize his body by relying on his horse stance and waist strength. When Gou Dan behind him saw this, he thrust his right hand into the Yuan Guan acupoint on his waist. The force Gou Dan used in this thrust was very sharp, almost concentrated to the extreme, like the tip of a needle!

What are the pressure point techniques used by martial monks?

Elsie took a breath. When did Lord Allen train so many experts? The assassin from before was also extremely skilled. If it weren't for the prosecutor's intervention, even the Knight Commander might not have been able to stop him!

Will, whose pressure point was pierced, felt the force gathered in his waist dissipate instantly, and he could no longer stand on his own two feet, losing his balance. Then, a sharp pain shot through his right hand. Because of his loss of balance, his opponent guided the force of his elbow strike, and with a stretch and pull, his right hand was dislocated!

Grass!

Will was incredibly frustrated, his eyes were bloodshot, and the veins in his body were bulging. Just as he was about to land, he stomped his left foot hard, and his body was thrown more than two meters into the air by the force from his foot. But when he looked down, he didn't see the small figure, and his heart skipped a beat.

"So slow..."

A cold voice came from behind, making Will freeze. What chilled him wasn't the voice, but the hand that touched his spine.

At this height and in this position, he knew exactly what the other party was going to do next, but he seemed to have no way to counter it. If the other party succeeded, he would at least be a paraplegic!

Damn it!!

"stop!"

At this point, Elsie, who had been watching the battle, finally spoke up.

If it were the woman who was beaten to death, she would definitely watch until the end. But if it were the prosecutor's nephew, she wouldn't be able to. Being targeted by that guy is not a good thing. After all, the servant who crippled her nephew had accompanied her to the banquet. What would she do if the other party just left?

boom!

Will fell to the ground in a sorry state, his body plummeting straight down from a height of two meters, leaving him seeing stars and bleeding from his nose.

But he dared not move. After Elsie spoke, the other party held back, only lightly tapping his spine, causing his limbs to go numb and making it impossible for him to adjust his posture and land straight. If the other party had used more force, given the other party's superb pressure point technique just now, he would have been crippled.

Dog Egg, stepping on Will's head, slowly walked to Lady Eliza, the city lord's wife, and bowed politely, inviting her, "Beautiful lady, would you have the honor of dancing with me?"

Good job!

A group of men couldn't help but applaud and cheer. They never expected that the infamous Will would be beaten up and have his head stepped on by a knight's squire in this rural place. Tsk tsk, he'll have plenty to talk about when he gets back. This trip was definitely worth it!

A group of women couldn't help but look at Eliza with envy. This woman from the northern barbarian family had stolen the spotlight since she arrived. Every man wanted to fawn over her. How old did this young and handsome pretty boy look? Sixteen?

With his handsome looks and sunny smile, he's practically the perfect puppy in a wealthy woman's eyes. And he's so good at fighting; it's only a matter of time before he becomes a knight.

A cute young knight, oh my god, what a perfect collectible! Why invite a married woman when there are so many unmarried ladies here? It's really unfair!

"I......"

In the past, Eliza would have accepted the invitation amidst envious glances, but now, she clearly felt that her body couldn't finish the dance. Just as she was about to refuse, the handsome young servant in front of her suddenly stepped forward and hugged her!

Eliza shuddered, her eyes filled with surprise, because she could feel the other person's hand precisely covering what seemed to be growing on her lower back.

"I have the antidote, go to the corner..."

Eliza's eyes lit up at the words, and she nodded with a flushed face. Seeing the two so intimate, the group of ladies became even more jealous. Gina clapped her hands and had the unconscious Will helped up, and then announced the start of the ball.

Dog Egg, with Eliza in his arms, retreated to a corner with practiced dance steps, leaving the center of the stage to Gina and the other young women. Most of the women couldn't help but feel disgusted as they watched the two of them unabashedly hide in the corner. Sure enough, women from the North were indecent.

"Where's the antidote? I can't take it anymore..." Eliza gasped for breath, no longer able to calmly ask why there was an antidote.

Taking advantage of the dim lighting and the fact that everyone else's attention was elsewhere, Gou Dan quickly pulled out the green bottle: "Drink it."

Eliza quickly took a sip and drank it down, but as soon as the smooth texture entered her mouth, her eyes widened in surprise!

Having come from the north and having no roots, she needed to make her husband fall in love with her in order to establish herself. Therefore, she always went all out in bed. She knew exactly what was in the bottle the moment she put it in her mouth!

"you......"

Seeing the other person's expression as if they were about to vomit, Gou Dan quickly grabbed their chin and said in a tone that brooked no refusal, "Swallow it!"
