Lynn returns his attention to his opponent.

By this time, the host had already introduced their identities.

The Mohawk was very dissatisfied that the opponent he found was just a commoner.

He made a thumbs down insulting gesture directly to Lynn.

Lynn's face also turned cold.

Therefore, when the trombone sound of the emcee announcing the start of the game had just fallen...

He flipped his wrist and the longbow was already nocked - in order to avoid being recognized, he did not use the Kovir longbow given to him by Triss, but an ordinary longbow purchased separately from Beauclair.

The next moment, the arrow shot out of the air, and it hit a red target.

The red target fell in response, but before it could be lowered completely, the demon hunter shot out two more arrows.

Draw a beautiful arc.

The archery competition is about who can hit all the targets of his own color in the shortest time.

Lynn The long bow in his hand was like a machine gun, with arrows shooting out continuously.

Mohawk had just fired his second arrow, and all the red targets on the demon hunter's side had already hit the ground.

The scene was stunned with shock.

Why is it that this has just begun and is already over?

Even the emcee, who has presided over athletic competitions for many years, has seen such a disparity for the first time.

The match scene, which was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, was filled with boiling cheers after about half a minute.

Geralt also secretly gave a thumbs up.

Under normal circumstances, both the winner and the audience will express encouragement and sympathy for the loser.

This is also the mercy in Five Chivalric Virtues.

However, before the game, the mohawk himself made an insulting gesture, which was not in line with Toussaint people's imagination of knights and also violated the compassion in Five Chivalric Virtues.

Therefore, the audience did not sympathize with him at all, but instead made waves of ridicule.

"You should be grateful that you are quite lucky," Lynn stared into the other person's eyes and said expressionlessly, "If you had met me during the spear competition, I would have made you lie in bed for months without being able to get out of bed."

The mohawk's face turned red with anger, and his eyes protruded like goldfish.

But the overwhelming facts left him unable to refute.

He could only run away from the archery range in despair.

The master of ceremonies came down from the high platform and shook hands with Lynn.

Congratulations to Lynn.

Since he passed the archery competition, he only needs to wait until all the archery competitions are over before participating in the spear competition.

It's funny to say.

During the two days when he stayed in the tent doing nothing, several nobles came to visit him.

There is no doubt that they all came here for Lynn's amazing bow skills.

The conditions offered by these nobles are more attractive than the last.

If Lynn is really just a commoner, then it would be a wise choice to choose the most suitable one among these nobles.

And this is also the main reason for civilians to participate in knightly competitions.

To be fair, although the athletic competition does not prohibit civilians from participating, it is not much easier for civilians to get the championship prize than climbing the Shu Road.

Therefore, the main purpose for commoners to participate in the knight's competition is to perform well in the competition and then accept the recruitment of a favorite noble.

But the purpose of Lynn was to come for Castel Ravello Vineyard, so he naturally declined those nobles.

Since the number of participants was far greater than before, the archery competition lasted until the third day before finally ending.

A quarter of the players were eliminated and left sadly.

After the archery competition, the next step is the lance competition.

The so-called spear duel certainly does not mean fighting on the ground like spearmen.

Instead, they carried out a lance charge on a straight and spacious runway.

Push the opponent down and you will be the winner.

Of course, considering the speed of charging on horseback, even with a stick, it can poke people out.

Therefore, after experiencing the bloody knight competition in the first few years, the subsequent lance competitions were uniformly switched to the use of special lances provided by the competition.

This kind of lance cannot be used on the battlefield at all. Its only purpose is to use it in this competition.

This kind of lance will shatter as soon as it hits the opponent's shield and armor, minimizing the possibility of life-threatening injuries during the game.

But accidents will always happen.

For example, when a lance thrust out, it just avoided the shield and instead hit the gap in the opponent's armor.

Another example is when a lance explodes, the fragments just blow into the opponent's throat or eyes.

Although unexpected situations like this are not uncommon, the spear competition event of the Knights Athletic Conference has not been canceled after all.

There is still an endless stream of knights coming from all over the world to compete.

The reason is simple.

Because everyone thinks that even if an accident occurs, they must be the one who caused it.

No one will feel like they are the one being surprised.

Lynn's spear competition was arranged in a relatively rear position.

Before he went on stage, he suddenly learned a piece of news.

Maksymilian lost two games in a row in the lance competition. Unfortunately, he was eliminated and missed the next team competition.

Lynn sighed slightly.

Maybe this is life.

He entered the competition venue riding a horse specially purchased by Beauclair.

In the center of the competition venue is a long runway, separated by a row of wooden rails in the middle.

Competitors need to be located at both ends of the track and launch a lance charge after the horn sounds.

The wooden fence that serves as a boundary is to prevent damage caused by collision of war horses.

Lynn The opponent in this battle is a knight as tall as a pagoda and wearing a winged helmet.

The emblem of a scorching sun is painted on its pitch-black armor.

There is no doubt that this is a knight from Nilfgaard.

The opponents we encountered this time were much more qualified than last time.

Maybe it's because Nilfgaardian Empire itself has many knights, non-commissioned officers, and officers who are civilians...

When he heard the master of ceremonies announce Lynn's civilian identity, the winged helmet knight on horseback made a polite gesture towards Lynn.

So Lynn also made a gift in return.

The horn sounded, and the Lynn and Nilfgaard knights charged at the same time.

Ta-ta-ta.

As the two riders got closer and closer, their speed became faster and faster.

Everyone in the stands was holding their breath and waiting for the outcome of the confrontation.

Bang!

The wooden spear tip shattered into pieces.

The lance on the opposite side exploded on Lynn's shield.

Because during the confrontation between the two cavalry, Lynn focused on adjusting the angle of the shield, causing the thrusting lance to deflect, thereby reducing the force to the maximum extent.

Therefore, even if he withstood this blow, the demon hunter did not fall.

After the two horses passed each other, Lynn used his superb riding skills to control the horse to turn around quickly and gallop over.

At this time, his opponent didn't even have time to change to a new lance.
