Start with the Lord of the Rings

East of the Red Fort.

In the huge royal garden, the atmosphere is warm and the voices are full of people.

Tournament competition system activity center.

"I heard you played against that Morgan last time you were at Winterfell?"

James Lannister, who was wearing a beautiful and mighty pale gold armor, rode on the back of a horse and asked Sandor Clegane, the hound beside him.

Sandor the Hound nodded, but said nothing.

But he knew what the other party wanted to ask.

"Then how is his strength?"

Jaime Lannister continued to speak, but thinking of the opponent's powerful bow and archery that could kill the giant winter bear with one arrow, he immediately emphasized, "Swordsmanship strength?"

"That time I lost."

Facing James Lannister's question, Sandor Clegane the hound shook his head truthfully.

Even if he was not familiar with the once proud Lannister family of Caster Rock City, but now the infamous "King Killer" Jaime Lannister.

But as long as the other party is a member of the Lannister family, as a member of the Lannister family loyal to him, he cannot refuse the other party's inquiry.

"Oh, I never stopped you saying that"

"Even in the city of King's Landing, there are not many who can beat you, right?"

Although this result has been obtained in other populations, Jaime Lannister still thinks it is best to ask Sandor Clegane, the hound of the subject.

Hearing the hound who had always been arrogant and cold now say this, he was really puzzled and a little unhappy.

"nothing."

"I'm not his match"

Sandor Clegane the Hound continued to shake his head.

These words made James Lannister feel unhappy, and at the same time, he also secretly raised the importance of that Morgan in his heart.

Of course he knew that the other party had proposed to compete with him several times, just to make himself famous.

At the Winterfell dinner, I ignored him after thinking about it.

But I didn't expect that guy would dare to openly challenge himself in front of the king and queen so rudely.

What's more, the king also took the opportunity to agree.

This made Jaime Lannister really angry and helpless.

As a member of the famous and legendary Kingsguard throughout Westeros, he was challenged by an unknown person from the northern countryside, and he had no right to refuse.

But the words of the king are the will and the iron law in the land under his feet.

He has no right to refuse.

"Well, it seems that the kid is not just a strong mouth to see the wind."

Seeing that he couldn't find anything useful, James Lannister turned his head and said casually.

At this time, James Lannister, who saw the old man in front of the knight contestants, took out the list for the competition, and immediately rushed forward.

soon.

When Jaime Lannister and the hound Sandor Clegane arrived, they happened to hear the old man read out two names that they both still knew.

"Morgan vs. Sir Hugh."

"Sir Shaw?"

James Lannister, who turned over and dismounted, immediately looked at the crowd in front of him, a man wearing silver and white exquisite armor, and he immediately remembered who the other party was: "Sir Xiufu of Arryn Valley."

"It was originally the squire of the former Prime Minister Jon Arryn, who was made a knight by King Robert Baratheon after his death."

The information of the knight of the shuffy came to mind quickly.

James Lannister glanced not far away again, the expressionless Morgan in dark red majestic armor he had never seen before.

"Sir Xiufu's strength is average, against the guy who can kill the winter bear with one arrow"

He seemed to be able to see the outcome of the battle already.

"Sir Shaw."

Hearing this name, Morgan recalled it a little, but had no memory in his mind at all.

But don't care anymore.

It's a pity that he didn't meet the "King Killer" Jaime Lannister in the first round.

Not far away, he glanced at a tall, handsome man with blond hair in golden armor.

Morgan was slightly regretful.

But as long as you win, it is inevitable to meet the opponent.

Of course, if the other party was eliminated before that, that's another story.

"Sir Barron vs. Sir Cloade"

The voice of the official old man continued.

"Sandor Clegane vs. Sir Roland."

"Huh Hound"

Hearing the name, Morgan couldn't help turning his head to look at the tall man with a terrifying black armor on half of his face not far away.

It happened that Sandor Clegane the hound also looked over at this time.

Morgan grinned.

"Jaime Lannister character vs. Sir Rachel."

The voice fell.

This name is obviously much louder than the reputation of the hound Sandor Clegane. Now most of the participating knights immediately turned to look at the calm-faced "Kingslayer" Kingsguard behind him.

Immediately, there was a quiet discussion.

"I didn't expect that "King Killer" actually participated in this competition."

"The kingslayer who broke his oath actually still has the face to participate in the competition, and he should be hanged in front of the gate of King's Landing."

"This is the generosity of His Majesty the King."

"He lost to Loras Tyrell the "Hundred Flowers Knight" last time, maybe this time he came for revenge"

"Vengeance. I don't think he'll ever try to win Loras Tyrell"

"Don't forget that the other party was born in Casterly Rock, the eldest son of Duke Tywin Lannister, and his sister is still Her Majesty the Queen."

"So what? The Duke of Casterly Rock is bigger than His Majesty? Bigger than the oath of the Seven Gods?"

"."

Listen to the low voices that quickly sounded around.

Morgan finally saw the reputation of "King Killer" Jaime Lannister.

He turned his head and glanced at the blond figure not far away again.

Although the other party's face still looks a little calm.

But Morgan could see that the other party's face seemed to be a little unbearable.

"Sir Codd vs. Sir Messier"

"Finally, Ser Gregor Clegane against Ser Loras Tyrell."

The old man who finished reading the list in one breath seemed to be overwhelmed and coughed lightly, and then continued: "The above is all the candidates for the immediate spear competition system."

"The order of appearances is the order of the list I just reported."

"Prepare each of them."

"The game will start soon."

After the old man finished speaking, he walked into the tent set up on the side.

Before the old man left, all the participating knights immediately started talking.

"Damn it, my opponent is the Ser Sandor Clegane called "The Hound"."

"Hey, with that "Magic Mountain" Sir Gregor Clegane here, there is no hope of winning first place in this horse-mounted spear competition."

"Fortunately, I also participated in the "Archery Tournament" competition system"

"Did you not notice? That "Magic Mountain" Ser Gregor Clegane and "Hundred Flowers Knight" Ser Loras Tyrell are actually the opponents in the first round of the competition"

"So what, can you still expect the other party to let you go when you meet them?"

"It's better if both of them are injured, so we have a better chance"

"Did I say you need to be so worried? They just attended a few more times and got more reputation."

"After this time, our name can spread throughout King's Landing, and even the entire continent of Westeros."

"."

A group of contestants and knights talked a lot.

It wasn't just the players who were about to take part in the horse pike system gathered at this time.

There are also other "team close combat" and "archery" some contestant knights.

Because the three competition systems are not played at the same time, but different time, one after another competition, which can also be seen by the king, queen and all the residents of King's Landing.

This time, the competition time of the competition: "Long Spear Tournament" is in the morning;

The "Archery Tournament" competition system is noon;

As for the "group close combat" competition system time is the afternoon;

The duration of the tournament is generally about two to three days.

The exact number of days will depend on the number of participants.

The total number of people who participated in the test this time was larger than the last time, but not too much, and the duration should be three days.

On the first day, the three competition systems were the first round;

In the same way, the next day, the winner of the first round will play the second round of competition;

On the third day, the competition between the winners of the second round will be held until the final winner of each format is determined.

The above is the rough schedule of this competition.

However, because the threshold for participating is very high, either a knight, or a nobility or a big man guarantees.

Such thresholds stop many people.

A knight is not a cat or a dog.

This is also the capital of the Seven Kingdoms, the city of King's Landing where the king of the palace is located.

Otherwise, other cities may not have such a great charm to attract enough participating knights.

But even so, the number of participating knights is very limited.

Therefore, as long as the knights feel that their strength is sufficient, they can participate in two competition systems, or even all three.

That's why Morgan can sign up for three events at a time.

Back to the point.

Many knights who participated in the tournament for the first time were still discussing.

But experienced knights have begun to check their armor and their horses.

The loser will have his armor and horses taken away by the winner.

The cost of such failure is absolutely not small.

Every participating knight comes for honor and gold dragon coins.

No one doesn't do their best.

The preparation time passed quickly.

Just when Morgan finished inspecting his horse "Tuip".

On the track, the two were riding horses, wearing bright armor, holding a huge wooden spear and a wooden shield. They stood in front of the track entrance together and looked at each other seriously, as the official whistle sounded from the side. .

The two knights walked side by side to the arena in front of the grandstand where the king, queen and a group of nobles and commoners of King's Landing were.

Soon, with the appearance of the first group of two test knights, countless civilians in the stands immediately cheered.

in deafening cheers.

The two knights dismounted in the center of the arena, then took off their helmets and saluted the king and queen on the high platform in front of them.

After getting instructions from King Robert Baratheon who couldn't wait.

The two knights put on their helmets again, mounted their horses, and after pulling a distance on the large arena, they charged towards each other with wooden spears and shields.

"bang bang bang"

"bang bang bang"

The booming hooves sounded quickly.

Watching the two heavily armed knights hedge.

Everyone in the stands looked up in nervous anticipation.

finally.

"Bang"

With a heavy, muffled sound.

The two knights collided.

If it weren't for the huge disparity in strength between the two or a major accident.

Otherwise, the first blow is not easy to determine the winner.

"boom"

"boom"

The dull crashing sound of the wooden gun kept ringing.

The two knights, who were quickly entangled in the first blow, couldn't decide the outcome, waving the huge wooden spears in their hands and constantly attacking each other.

Every dull attack seemed to strike the hearts of countless spectators in the surrounding stands.

Make them more addicted to it.

"boom"

"boom"

The sound of wooden guns colliding constantly resounded throughout the audience.

The strength of these two knights seems to be equal, and you and I went on and on for a while without a winner.

It was so enjoyable for countless people in the stands that they began to talk about it.

At this time, the former Prime Minister, Eddard Stark, Duke of Winterfell, and his two daughters were sitting beside the tall grandstand where the King and Queen were.

Watching the fierce battle on the arena, Arya Stark couldn't help but look at her father beside her with dazed eyes and asked, "Father, who do you think will win between the two of them?"

"Uh"

Eddard Stark came back to his senses, looked at his little daughter with a little embarrassment and smiled: "Of course, we won't know until after the test."

The voice fell instantly.

Countless exclamations suddenly sounded.

Eddard Stark and Arya immediately looked at the arena, and saw that one of the knights was being stabbed in the chest armor by the spear in the hand of another knight.

The knight who was stabbed immediately became unstable and fell off his horse.

At this moment, the cheers immediately became overwhelming.

The victorious knight immediately took off his helmet, raised his helmet in one hand, and raised his spear in the other, with a very excited expression on his face, and began to gallop back and forth around the circular arena on horseback, enjoying the cheers of all the audience.

The defeated knights could only limping to the sidelines with the help of the staff who had already rushed into the arena.

The winner of the first round has a limited amount of time to cheer.

Soon, the winning knight left the field.

The second group of knights who competed with spears immediately appeared on the field.

Likewise, after saluting the king and queen.

The battle begins again.

The battle between the knights in the second group is somewhat similar to the first group.

The two knights were equally matched in strength.

The battle was equally fierce.

However, there is no special burst point, and no special fire point.

The battle ended without surprise and joy with the fall of one of the knights.

In the stands, the countless spectators onlookers once again gave out deafening cheers.

It didn't take long.

When the victorious knights left with their heads held high in cheers.

The defeated knights walked away with no one caring.

Immediately after.

Immediately the third group of knights in the spear jousting came on stage.

From a distance, I saw a knight wearing silver and white delicate full-body armor and a knight wearing a very rare, dark red majestic armor with a unique shape after blood coagulation.

On the high platform, King Robert Baratheon's somewhat careless eyes immediately became interested, and he couldn't help but move his bloated body and sit up straight.

Beside her, Queen Cersei Lannister also turned slightly serious.

Prince Joffrey stared intently at the dark red figure.

On one side, the noble stand area.

Arya Stark looked at the figure in the distance and immediately greeted her sister and father beside her, and pointed to the figure in the distance and said loudly, "Look, it's teacher, it's teacher Morgan."

"Understood, keep your voice down."

"Arya, this is outside"

The former Prime Minister Eddard Stark couldn't help but speak bitterly.

Arya shouted.

It made other powerful nobles around also have some interest, and their eyes were focused on the dark red figure walking into the arena.

soon.

When Morgan in dark red armor rode "Radish" and knight Xiufu in silver armor walked to the center of the arena to salute the king and queen.

When His Majesty the King asked why Morgan, who was wearing dark red armor, didn't wear a helmet.

Countless spectators in the stands were awakened to find that this knight with a ponytail, tall stature, unique and mighty armor, and handsome enough to make a young lady scream, actually did not wear a helmet.

"Report to Your Majesty, I never wear a helmet"

There were sporadic boos from the stands immediately when Morgan smiled and said the arrogance of never wearing a helmet.

Obviously, many viewers expressed their dissatisfaction with this exceptionally loner knight.

Only when King Robert Baratheon's laughter sounded, the boos stopped immediately.

Immediately after.

With the king waving.

As usual, the two knights walked away in opposite directions and pulled a distance.

At this time, the staff on the sidelines rang the gong.

The test has officially started.

"bang bang bang"

Looking at the armored knight in silver armor, who was fully armed and charged with a huge spear on horseback.

Morgan's face was cold, he held the giant wooden spear obliquely, and when he caught the horse's belly, "Radish" immediately rushed out with great excitement.

"bang bang bang"

"bang bang bang"

The roar of hoofs.

near

closer.

Finally, amid the nervous anticipation of countless people in the stands, the two knights collided.

"Bang"

It sounded again with a heavy, dull crashing sound.

A silver figure suddenly flew upside down from the horse's back.

"boom"

When the knight in silver armor flew several dozen meters upside down, he fell heavily to the ground.

At this moment, the entire stadium stand was silent.
