Chapter 611: Reaching the Peak?
It's not strange to get injured in the game, although Xia Feng feels sorry for Franca, but he also knows that Franka and Razer are real fighters, and the battlefield is unpredictable, as long as they pick up arms, they are ready to be injured.
Xia Feng exhaled heavily after bandaging the wound on his arm.
"How's Franka's injury?"
Ah Guang replied.
"It's not a big deal, the medical staff bandaged it, and I'll drive her back to the barbecue restaurant later."
"Okay."
That's when the south wind came over.
"Ah Guang, don't send it, I'll send her back, and I'll go back to Notting City directly after sending it off."
Ah Guang wondered.
"Brother Nan, you won't watch the finals?"
"I don't look at it."
Nanfeng was nothing on the surface, but Xia Feng knew that he already knew that the royals would be there on the day of the final.
Xia Feng stood up.
"Okay, then please."
"Little thing, then I'll be gone in a moment."
"Well, I won't send you, I'm going to find someone."
Ah Guang immediately asked nervously.
"Brother Feng, you are still injured, who are you going to find?"
"Find an old friend and leave me alone."
With that, the summer breeze left the rest area with the setting sun.
.....
The artificial lake of the Royal Academy.
Victoria's temperatures have warmed up a bit in recent days, but not yet to the point of melting the ice, and the huge man-made lake is still frozen and solid, and the setting sun reflects a fiery red luster on the lake.
Xia Feng came to the lake alone, and then, unexpectedly, he saw a familiar figure by the lake.
"Skati, you're here."
Scati stood by the lake with her sword in hand, her face facing the lake, her long silver hair fluttering gently in the cold wind.
Hearing the sound of the summer breeze, she turned her head.
"It's you, how did you know I was here?"
Xia Feng walked up to her.
"I guess, because this is the only place in the entire Royal Academy where there is water, heh, even though it's frozen to ice now, I guess you'll be here."
Seeing that Scati didn't speak, Xia Feng could only smile bitterly.
"I didn't expect you to remember me."
"I remember."
"By the way, we saw it last time in the disaster area in Sammy, thank you for saving me."
Summer Wind and Scati first met on the sea, when Scati also saved him from the attack of the Deep Sea Trolls.
At that time, although he inherited the black and white twins, he was still a stunned young man, a silly boy who fled from Colombia in a hurry, and took the turtle and Ifrit to Victoria to join his second uncle.
If you change the lakeside to a ship and the lake to the sea, then everything will feel like yesterday.
It's just that people are still the same people as they were at the beginning, but their respective experiences have undergone earth-shaking changes, and it turns out that unconsciously, so much time has passed.
Hearing Xia Feng's thanks, Scati just said with a blank face.
"I did see you in Sammy, but I didn't mean to save you, I didn't know it was you in the first place, so you don't have to thank me."
For some reason, Xia Feng felt that Scati was a little indifferent to him, of course, it could also be that he was sentimental, and if you think about it, in fact, they didn't know each other well.
But since Sammy was mentioned, Xia Feng couldn't help but ask.
"Scati, you.... Do you know the origin of the mysterious organization that was in the disaster area at that time? ”
Silent.
Seeing that Scati didn't make a sound, Xia Feng continued to remind.
"It's that group of black-robed people, I asked a friend in Sami to check it, and he said that the organization is called the [Deep Classics] Doctrine, you know ....."
"It's none of your business."
Scati interrupted Natsu Breeze.
"It's none of your business, and I won't answer you."
For Scati, this seemed to be a very sensitive topic, and leaving this sentence, Scati turned to leave.
Seeing that she was leaving, Xia Feng immediately stopped her eagerly.
"Wait a minute, okay, I'll not ask."
Scati turned his back to the summer breeze.
"Do you have anything else to do?"
Xia Feng sorted out his thoughts and said in a tone as calm as possible.
"That's... Where do you live now, I've settled down in Victoria, my family is big... If you wish, you can come to my house, and of course, I will not interfere with any of your affairs. ”
"No, I'm a bounty hunter now."
Scati's refusal was expected by the summer breeze.
"Well, I have one last question."
"Say."
"Why did you come to Victoria's fencing competition? Is it for the bonus? ”
Under the light of the setting sun, Scati's back was a little lonely, but her voice was extremely firm.
"I don't want a prize, I'm just doing what I have to do, or rather, I'm just hunting."
Leaving these words, Scati left the lakeside.
.....
Skati said that she was just hunting, which was not too difficult to understand.
She is a bounty hunter, and the so-called hunting may mean completing the bounty task, which Xia Feng thought so at that time.
....
....
The morning sun rises in the east, and the 5th day of the race has arrived.
Today is the top 8 competition, and only the last 8 of the more than 700 players who signed up this time are left, and there is no doubt that these 8 people are the strongest of the strong.
From this moment on, every match will be a thrilling matchup, and of course, in order for the audience not to miss every match, the top 8 matches will not be played at the same time, but in turn.
Before the official start of the game, Marenleg was still in a suit and leather shoes, and he spoke a lot on stage like a dog, to put it bluntly, it was to pave the atmosphere and mobilize the enthusiasm of the audience.
After saying the warm-up words, Marenleg waved his hand.
"Dear viewers, don't miss every wonderful duel today, I announce that the top 8 matches of the Sword Fighting Competition have officially begun!"
The top 8 is 8 people, so there will be a total of 4 games today, two in the morning and two in the afternoon.
...
The first game of the morning was Tylin vs. Pete.
This man named Pete is from the Central Army, looks like he is in his 30s, and is the only one in the Central Army to enter the top 8, of course, this result is already very good, the people from the border military district only entered the top 16, and the Northern Military District did not even enter the top 16.
This Pete is an old special forces, and it is said that he is still an instructor, and he is basically called a fighter among the soldiers, but there is still no suspense in this game.
In addition to the people who eat melons, anyone who knows a little about swordsmanship can see that this game will definitely be won by Tailin.
.....
Xia Feng's game today was the last game in the afternoon, and he didn't have anything to do in the morning, so he sat with everyone and prepared to watch the game seriously.
At this time, a strange but familiar voice came from behind him.
"Xia Feng, you have actually entered the top 8 like you, tsk, it's really shit luck."
Xia Feng didn't have to look back to know who this person was.
"Master Karn, you didn't compete, don't bounce around in front of me like a clown, I don't want to deal with you, can't I see it."
Karn wasn't angry this time, he said with a smirk.
"Xia Feng, I'm not congratulating you, I'm sympathizing with you, if you meet my people, I will let you die a miserable death, oh yes, was that little girl seriously injured yesterday, hey, Mr. Dong Fu is still too light, if it is according to my meaning, that little girl will never want to stand up again in her life."
Xia Feng turned back impatiently.
"Don't force me, believe it or not, I'll dare to screw your head off now."
Seeing Xia Feng's frightening eyes, Karn instinctively took a few steps back.
"You are arrogant now, don't worry, even if you are eliminated in the fourth game, I will look for you."
With that, Karn walked away.
....
After Karn left, Xia Feng just "cut" and continued to watch the game, at this time, Xiao Yunye next to him spoke.
"Xia Feng, is Franka injured?"
It turned out that Xiao Ye only knew that Franka was eliminated, and did not know that she was injured.
Xia Feng nodded solemnly.
"Well, Franka lost to East Burial and suffered some minor injuries, and the south wind has already sent her back to the barbecue restaurant."
Glancing at the schedule, Xia Feng continued.
"Xiao Ye, the next one is the duel between you and the East Burial, my friend named Silver Gray reminded me before that the East Burial is a master of making knives, and it is said that the knife technique has reached its peak, you have to be careful."
Hearing Xia Feng's reminder, I saw Xiao Yunye gently caress his sword that has never been unsheathed from beginning to end with his fingers.
Said softly.
"Reaching the top..... ? ”
