Although Davion had little actual combat experience, he also knew that being attacked from both sides was very dangerous, so he immediately retreated to the edge of the field and waited to see what would happen.

If you look down from the air, you will find that most of the knights on the field are wary of each other and are on guard against each other.

Unknowingly, it was naturally divided into three surrounding circles: one large, two small, and three.

The largest semicircle surrounded almost twenty people.

Standing in the middle are Jaime·Lannister and Barristan·Selmy.

The two lined up right next to each other and didn't move from place to place at the beginning of the game.

The bright armor of Kingsguard was too eye-catching, and the reputation of the two had long spread throughout Seven Kingdoms. The surrounding contestants subconsciously reached a consensus to kill these two hardest bones first.

Jaime and Barristan looked at each other and raised the corners of their mouths in unison, not paying attention to the group of people surrounding them at all.

Barristan smiled and joked:

"Ser Jaime, I'll leave these little guys to you. I'm an old man, so I have to save my strength for later."

Jaime snorted nonchalantly:

"Ser Barristan Selmy, you are really old. How much effort will it take to deal with these people?"

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Barristan to answer, he rushed forward with his sword in hand and instantly started fighting with the people in the encirclement.

Seeing this, Barristan, not to be outdone, walked around to the flank of Jaime and joined the battle with his sword!

Obviously, what he just said about "old age and frailty" was purely modest. In terms of actual combat performance, he and Jaime were on par with each other, and even vaguely surpassed Jaime.

The clashing sounds of the two swordsmen were as dense as a barrage of cannons. When other people on the field heard the noise, they also found their opponents to fight, and the entire field fell into chaos in an instant.

In another encirclement, standing is the Mountain Gregor·Clegane.

This guy didn't even lean against the guardrail. He was surrounded by a group of people in the middle, forming a large circle.

But unlike the people surrounding Jaime and Barristan, the faces of those surrounding the Mountain were full of fear. Most of the weapons in their hands only dared to be in a defensive posture, and no one dared to step forward easily.

The Mountain's cruelty is well known to everyone in Seven Kingdoms. Everyone present knows that there is no chance of winning in a head-on fight with the Mountain!

Even if it is a siege, the first person to rush forward will definitely die miserably.

So everyone was in a stalemate, defending and watching at the same time, ready to change targets and run away at any time.

The Mountain stood on the same spot, taking advantage of his height to scan the whole place, and finally found Davion by the guardrail on one side.

He suddenly raised the two-handed sword in his hand. This single action made the people around him take two steps back in fear.

Then, he strode towards the direction of Davion.

That's right, just walk. Running while wearing armor will only waste your energy.

The Mountain When the people behind him saw this, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and raised their weapons towards the people around them.

The people in front of him hurriedly backed away, and in the end they automatically gave way to the Mountain, leading directly to Davion. No one dared to block his advance.

The last circle had the smallest number of people, but those in the middle were two people who couldn't possibly stand together.

One is the Hound Sandor·Clegane who wears a dog-head helmet and exudes a violent aura.

The other is Knight of Flowers Loras·Tyrell wearing gorgeous armor.

Both of them are well-known, so they naturally become the priority targets of those around them.

Loras was not going to carry it stupidly, and quietly retreated to the Hound's side.

He looked at the Hound's tall figure and iconic dog-head helmet, recognized it at a glance, and said quickly:

"Sir Clegane, I think we should work together to deal with these people now, what do you think?"

Sandor glanced at Loras coldly through the helmet, said nothing, raised his sword and rushed out.

Loras yelled at his back, "If you don't speak, I'll take it as your consent, Sir Clegane!"

The Hound's footsteps paused for an instant, turned his head suddenly and said coldly:

"I'm not a fucking jazz guy!"

Davion on the other side was in a much easier situation, as no one around him was obviously targeting him.

Obviously, in the eyes of these people, this kid who just won the Joust championship may not be very good if he works hard right away.

Davion is holding a shield with a bat pattern in one hand and a long sword in the other. Based on the principle of "I will not move if the enemy does not move", he is observing the situation on the field with great interest.

Suddenly, the people in front of him dispersed to both sides in an inexplicable panic, forcibly making way for him.

Davion looked up and saw the Mountain walking towards him step by step.

"You little bastard! Damn thief! Give me back my championship!"

The Mountain's roar can be heard clearly through the noisy stadium.

In the stands, Cersei had his legs crossed, his hands were quietly placed on his thighs, and he was holding a Gold Dragon on his fingertips, and his thumbs were unconsciously rubbing the marks on it.

That's the thumbprint Davion made before.

She could clearly see her position and noticed that Jaime was surrounded by a group of people. She knew the strength of Jaime and Barristan, so she was not really worried at all.

Then, she seemed to suddenly remember something, her fingertips paused, and her eyes quickly scanned the arena.

Davion was soon found.

Seeing that he was not surrounded by anyone, and even looked leisurely, Cersei snorted coldly, but felt inexplicably relieved in his heart, and continued to unconsciously rub the Gold Dragon with his thumb.

But when she saw the Mountain walking straight towards Davion, her heart suddenly rose to her throat again!

As the daughter of Tywin, she knows better than anyone how cruel the Mountain is!

The audience in the stands was already excited, and they were talking one after another.

"Kingslayer and Barristan are too fierce, aren't they? Surrounded by so many people, they don't even dodge, they just attack hard!"

"Don't look at Kingslayer, look at the Mountain! He is rushing towards Bat Knight!"

"Now I've seen a good show. I wonder if Bat Knight's martial arts skills can be used?"

"I think he's dead! The Mountain is two or three times stronger than him, how can we fight him?"

Davion was leaning against the guardrail. What he was thinking about was not whether he could win, but how much the equipment the Mountain was wearing was worth.

The last time Joust, the two didn't really fight. It was a pity that he didn't have the chance to ask for the ransom. Unexpectedly, the Mountain actually sent it to his door.

He stood up straight, took two steps forward, and rapped his sword twice on the shield, making a crisp sound.

At the same time, he carried a shield on his left arm and deliberately hooked his hand provocatively towards the Mountain.

When the two were less than ten meters apart, the Mountain suddenly accelerated his pace and rushed towards Davion.

His speed was not very fast, but his huge body and thick armor gave him an unstoppable sense of pressure when he ran, making the spectators around him hold their breath.

Davion stood still and did not move.

He knew clearly that the Mountain's first blow must be a powerful and heavy blow!

He doesn't want to hide, what he wants is to become famous in one battle, to fully demonstrate his power, so that no one present will dare to look down on him anymore.

Therefore, he decided to fight the blow head-on.

The shield in his left hand was an oak shield bought from Tob's the Smith shop. Looking at the wide two-handed sword in the Mountain's hand, Davion also knew that this shield could not withstand a frontal impact at all.

Fortunately, he has the skill "Dragon Tail". When activated, it can add a layer of protection to the shield, which can barely hold on.

As soon as the thought came to an end, the Mountain had already rushed forward. After a roar, the two-handed sword raised high suddenly slashed down, directly taking Davion's head!

Looking at this posture, I want to split him in half!
