Chapter 530: Magic Blast: Competition
Rogette: "I know, you're willing to make any sacrifice for Vivien. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Well, leave it to me. I'll admit I'm curious. ā
Gay Mi: "I will always owe you a favor!" We have to make sure you don't get knocked out of the tournament before you see Vivien. ā
Rogette clasped his hands to his chest: "What do you mean?" ā
Gaymy Mi: "Can you show me how heroic you are in archery, horseback riding, and fighting?" You'll also have to learn the rules of the tournament and know how to put it into practice. I'm not questioning your abilities. Anyone needs training, not even demon hunters. On top of that, jousting is definitely different from your job and requires skills that you don't normally use, especially horse racing. The choice is yours, where do we start? ā
Rogette: "It's not bad to let the turnips blow the wind." Let's go horseback riding. "Yes, Rogert's horse's name is Turnip.
Gay Mi: "Come with me." The competition is very different from what you've been competing in. You won't play against other opponents. ā
Rogette: "What's that called racing?" ā
Gay Mi: "You're in a race against time!" The real track is in the arena, around the arena, and the end is also in the arena. The training track is outside the arena. Let's go together. ā
Everyone came to the training ground.
Gaywm: "Everything is ready. Well, listen, it's probably not as easy as you think. There are dummies and targets on the path. You have to slash the dummy with your sword and hit the target with your crossbow. Each time you hit a target with a sword or crossbow arrow, the time limit to complete the track increases. It may sound simple, but I've seen many knights hang themselves in a hate of failure. During the race, the judges on the track will help you score points. There won't be any of these things right now. ā
Rogette looked at the players, "Did you hear that?" The guy with the horse practiced with me. You join me in the tournament and help me kill as many other contestants as you can. ā
There aren't many players who own horses. Players like Tang Tu, who don't have horses, are given the opportunity to move freely for a while.
Tang Tu went to the blacksmith shop to repair the equipment. Then I went to the grocery store and looked at the price of magic potions, and then pinched the time to go back to the training ground.
Rogette finished training just in time: "I think that's okay. Now let's go meet your Vivien. ā
Gaogotmy said seriously: "She's not mine yet, the time has not come." Now you're going to the registration tent. Fame and glory are important, but first you have to get the paperwork together. ā
Rogette said to the players, "You just practiced horseback riding with me, now come with me to sign up." Others continue to move freely. ā
Tang Tu didn't have much to do, so he still followed Rogette to watch the excitement.
A group of people came to the registration tent, and Rogette said to the officials, "We're going to sign up for the jousting competition." ā
Official: "No problem. However, we have to deal with the paperwork first. At the request of Gay Mi, I investigated your personal name history. ā
Rogert: "Really? What did you find? ā
Official: "My findings show you can compete as Leah's Rogette, or as Ravix from the Four Corners." It's not every year that there are contestants with two kinds of ornaments. Which identity do you want to enter? As for these little brothers of yours... Well... They're a bit of a hassle. ā
Rogert: "It's unexpected. I'm a little curious if Leah Rogette has any information to inquire about. ā
Official: "In 1267, Rogert, a member of the Demon Hunters' Guild, was made a knight by Empress Mobil and received the title of Rogette of Leah. This is to commemorate his outstanding dedication to the Battle of the Bridge, which spans both banks of the Yalu Lu River. But I guess you know which battle I'm talking about, right? ā
Rogette: "Well, I know... Those days are so nostalgic. Cahill and I led just a few northerners against the entire Nilfgard brigade. We're going to win just because we have to cross that river. Levix of the Four Corners Village, how did you dig up this name? ā
Official: "Towson pays a lot of attention to everyone's name. Just go to the Principality's database and you'll have all the necessary information. 'Ravix of the Four Corners' is the name you use when you attend the fifteenth birthday party of Princess Pavita, daughter of Queen Calan Creek in Sintra. ā
Rogette: "You're right. Let's just use the name Ravix. ā
Officer: "Please take your crested shield." ā
Rogert: "I'm a Demon Hunter. Demon hunters don't use shields in battle. ā
Official: "Who said it was going to be used in battle?" I didn't say that. This shield is meant to commemorate your participation in the jousting tournament, so take it as your souvenir. ā
Rogert: "Well, thank you in advance." My brethren... How do I participate in the competition? ā
Official: "Well... They had to pay a lot of money. Plus, they don't have souvenir shields. Of course, if in the end they win the game, that's another story. Have you decided to participate? ā
Rogette looked at the players, "You guys decide." ā
These players don't seem to be short of gold coins, and they all happily pay a sum of gold coins.
Official: "Has anyone told you about the challenges, prizes, and vows of the tournament?" If not, allow me to explain it to you. ā
Rogette: "What oath did you mention?" ā
Official: "It is our tradition that knights must take an oath and observe it throughout the tournament. Each contestant must swear by the most important moral representations of his or her character. ā
Rogette: "So, then I already know all the details of the knights' jousting tournaments. ā
Official: "Good. In that case, you must take an oath. In what name do you want to swear? ā
Rogette clutched one hand to his chest: "In my name dear, Lily. Merigothe swore that I would follow the five knightly virtues. "It's not Yennefer.
The other players followed Rogette's example and swore an oath.
Official: "May the gods help you through this." Please sign here and complete these forms. All the formalities on my side have been completed. Gayamomi has been arranged, please wear armor suitable for the tournament now. You have designated tents to use during the tournament, just near the arena. Good luck. ā
Fortunately, there is no rule that the tent can only be used by himself, and Rogette led all the players to the tent. Then everyone met Rogette's acquaintance Knight here.
Acquaintance Knight: "Rogette, my God, have you decided to be a wandering knight?" ā
Rogert: "No kidding, I'm here for work. Did you also participate in a jousting tournament? ā
Acquaintance Knight: "Do you still need to ask?" Ha, I'm going to compete with Yadzo's Renfa. I just saw him a while ago and the guy was so nervous. He kept sucking on the numbing powder, as if it would help him make up his mind. ā
Rogette: "I guess that's against the rules." ā
Acquaintance Knight: "But who can tell the Nefgards?" Listen, Rogette, I have gossip for you. Your archery duel will take place when the sun is shining. ā
Rogette: "That doesn't make a difference to me. ā
Acquaintance Knight: "But it won't make you feel better." Since we're all going to wait, let's play GWENT with me. If you win, I'll swap places with you. For us southerners, it's nothing. ā
Rogette played with him. In fact, Rogette can swap positions with one of the players in the tournament to avoid the sun. Still, Rogette won.
Acquaintance Knight: "Congratulations on your victory." I'll change positions with you as promised. It's a great time to spend this time. Miss Vivien should be in the near future. I'm going to take part in my first challenge. ā
Rogette: "Good luck. ā
Everyone is here. Vivien stood on the stage and spoke: "Knights, I salute both. The glory and responsibility of this year's competition fell on my shoulders. Fight with all your might, and the winner will win the grand prize of the tournament from my hands. The two of them have made a vow, physically and mentally ready. It's time to take the quiz! ā
Finally it was Rogette's turn to play. The players watched from the sidelines, and Gay Mi also rushed over.
Then, Rogette won the game. Vivien holds a crossbow in her hand and presents the award to Rogette.
Vivien walked up to Rogett, "Here's your prize, sir." This is the crossbow that draws your ornament. Congratulations on your victory. ā
Rogette took the crossbow: "Thank you, Miss. Can you tell me what other awards there are? ā
Vivien: "I'll only give you the same amount of time as the other contestants. I still have things to deal with, and I'm out of company. ā
Rogert: "Wait, my badge is shaking badly, and there's only one explanation for that - magic. ā
Vivien: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the perfume I use is made by a lady." ā
Rogette walks towards Gay Mi.
"I'll use your time to find out which tent Vivien is in." Maybe you can find something in the tent. ā
Rogette: "You're right, Vivien is cursed. I felt it when she opened the tournament. ā
Gaymoy: "In that case, we don't have time to waste. Let's go. ā
Gay Rice leads everyone to Vivien's tent: "This is her tent. Please be sure to go in and have a look, and do a little searching. If someone approaches, I'll learn to whine an owl. ā
rice is outside watching the wind. Rogette led the players into the tent.
Rogette looked at the pillars in the tent and said, "It's a claw mark, it's obvious." I don't know which monster left it, but I know that it's very large. ā
Then, Rogette looked at the things on the table and said, "It's the salt of Neissan." It is used to make powders. "You know all this?
The player finds some feathers on the ground, and Rogette says, "It's the Golden Eagle Feather." Vivien got a bird as a pet? If that's the case, why isn't there even a trace here? Well... Vampire Girl is especially fond of birds..."
Rogette found another thing: "It's a bottle of invisible ointment." There's a lot of magic in there. ā
Gay Mi suddenly shouted at the door: "Someone's coming!" Move fast! ā
Rogette and the player immediately exited the tent.
Gaywmi: "We've got to go back to the tournament right away, the second one is about to start. ā
A maid came up and saw the group: "Gentlemen! What are you looking for in my lady's tent? Looking for inspiration? Get out! ā
Everyone hurried to the competition venue.
The second contest began: "Valiant knights and demure ladies, look at the contestants gathered in front of us." They are all the most experienced and virtuous knights! Come from all over the world in search of glory! Please hear me call out their names one by one, taste their titles, welcome them..."
Vivien walked in front of the knights: "I sincerely welcome all knights! I hope I can bear witness to you the path to fame, valor and glory. ā
The race is on. This time it's horse racing. Of course, it was still Rogert who won.
Vivien presented Rogette with the award again: "Congratulations on your win. Take it, it's your prize, it's the saddle with your ornament painted. ā
Rogette: "Thank you very much. ā
Vivien: "By the way, my maid saw a white-haired man slip out of my tent. Do you know who it is? ā
Rogert: "I know. If you tell me which lady made the perfume for you, I'll tell you who that person is. ā
Vivien: "No comment. Then she left.
Gay Mi came over nibbling on an apple: "Congratulations on your victory." And the performance is quite good. I don't regret not being able to participate... Presumably. You have to have a celebratory drink and come with me to the party. We waited for Vivien together. ā
The people sat down in the feast. Rogette and Gay Rice are drinking. Players can eat fruit or drink alcohol.
Gaogot: "What do you think of Vivien?" ā
Rogette: "She's stunningly beautiful. ā
Gay Mi: "That's not what I'm talking about. ā
Rogette: "It's too early to tell, I don't have any exact ideas yet. One thing I discovered was that she would use powerful magic and use illusions to cover herself. ā
Gaymoy: "You're saying her true face might be completely different from her appearance?" ā
Rogert: "That's just my guess. I found some clues, and I'm starting to wonder if the Vivien you love is a vampire girl. ā
Gay Mi: "Vampire Girl? You mean... Will she suck human blood? ā
Rogette: "I'm not sure yet. ā
Gaywmi: "There's still some time before Vivien arrives. Let's have a drink. Respectfully, I hope you can help her. Not... When I first saw her, I finally understood what was written in the poem. ā
Rogert: "Love is not just poetry, sometimes it's prose. But sometimes the appearance of love is also ugly. ā
Gaymomy: "You say that because you don't know Vivien as well as I do. Spending life with her would definitely be quite sweet! ā
Rogette: "Actually, you don't know her as well as you think. ā
