Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 28 Half Senior Brother

The first scene brought such wonderful viewing pleasure that the audience on the sidelines burst into thunderous applause.

"Okay! This flying technique is really enjoyable to watch!"

"I thought the sentry picking up people was unexpected, but I didn't expect there would be experts!"

The three people bowed to the surroundings and walked off the ring.

"Are you two going to stay here and continue watching?" Mo Rong asked.

"That's for sure. I don't have much to do today. I just want to watch other people's matches so I can prepare for the second round."

Quiruo also nodded in agreement with Ida.

"Okay, Brother Quiruo, please do me a favor and run errands to buy some food."

With that said, he took out some Geo and handed it to Quiruo.

"That won't work. You've been paying for my meals and drinks these past few days. How can I..."

Kui Ruo felt a little distressed halfway through, and then turned to Mo Rong and asked:

"Brother Morong, do you know where we can earn some Geo quickly in our city?"

After hearing this, Mo Rong still didn't know what Kui Ruo wanted to do, so he thought about it and said:

"It doesn't cost much to eat something. Why do you guys care about this?"

"Besides, now that I'm your captain, you have to help me play the game. Can I make you hungry? Okay, hurry up and go."

"But..."

"Oh, don't think so much. Our captain is rich, so this little food is nothing." Ida also said carelessly.

"Brother Morong, Brother Ida, I will definitely help you get a good result in this competition!"

"Okay, okay, I can't say whether you are as strong as the two of us."

Murong threw Gio to him, and Kui Ruo didn't refuse anymore. He took Gio from Murong and walked outside.

......

The three of them watched the game until the afternoon, and only finished eight or nine games.

So far, Mo Rong has discovered four relatively strong teams.

One group is composed of the Mushroom Tribe. Although they are not strong in combat, they seem to have a spiritual connection. Mo Rong barely moved his mouth when watching them compete, but he can always respond to attacks from blind corners in time. .

One team was led by Brother Long Ya and two body warriors. Needless to say, Brother Long Ya's destructive power. The two smaller warriors were also equipped with round shields and were not affected at all when facing their opponents. How much damage is needed to win the game.

One team is composed of moss warriors. Each of them is a combination of nailed shields. Different from the previous ones, these three warriors will spit out a kind of thorny green ball from a long distance to suppress the opponent. Their battle is to use This feature makes the opponent exhausted, resulting in inability to fight in close combat and losing the game.

The last one is also the one that Mo Rong has the most trouble with at the moment. It is composed of three large sentinels wearing red armor. Their huge bodies and the bone nails and shields they hold in their hands do not affect their actions. Every blow is swift and violent. And powerful, they even defeated the entire opposing team with just one person.

"It's difficult to handle. I guess it won't be easy to play in the next game."

Morong looked at the two teams fighting on the stage and was a little uninterested. He found that there were very few close matches in this game. They were the kind of strong close matches. Most of them were almost crushing.

"Ida, did you see any familiar faces in this competition?"

"Ah, I seem to have seen most of them, especially the three big sentinels. Last year, their strength ranked among the top three."

"Top three? By the way, who was the champion last year?"

"Let me think about it... I don't quite remember his name, but he is very powerful, you know? He competed alone!"

"Alone?! Has the competition system been changed?"

"No, although the following games were single-player, he participated individually in the first few rounds, and he also met the top five teams of that session several times."

"So strong? Tell me more."

"I don't quite remember his name, but I know how he fights. Not only can he fly, but he can also control many bone nails by himself!"

"In his team competition, if your opponent does not have the ability to fly, he will only be tortured by the bone nails he controls until he loses the ability to fight. Even if you can fly, it will be difficult to get close to him."

"why?"

"Because most of the people present did not see where his nails came out and where they disappeared, the opponent often lost the game in confusion."

Mo Rong thought about it based on what Ida said, and found that there is indeed such a warrior in the game who meets these characteristics.

"Is the champion you are talking about wearing a red cape and having two horns on his head?"

"Yes, yes, you have seen him?"

Murong was sure that it was Ze Ruo who Ida was talking about.

"I heard other people describe it, but I didn't expect that he was the last champion. What happened next?"

"I'm going to be a guard, what's the point...fuck!"

Ida patted Mo Rong hard and didn't say a word for a long time.

"Hi~, what's wrong, are you sick?"

"Who is that person in your stands!"

"Just watch, you hit me...fuck you!"

The three figures standing on the stage each held a huge bone nail, and wore a white crown similar to a crown on their heads. They also had a red silk scarf wrapped around them. The aura exuding from their bodies blew the heavy cloak behind them. rise.

Astonishingly, they are the three bone nail master brothers.

"Why are they here too?"

Mo Rong looked at the stage and saw that there was another powerful enemy.

The three brothers arrived, and Master Sly must also be nearby. Murong stood up and looked around, and sure enough, he saw Sly's figure on the other side of the ring.

Mo Rong pulled Ida and walked over there. Kui Ruo saw the two of them getting up and quickly followed.

"Master Sly!"

This sentence was spoken by Quiruo first. Sly walked up to Quiruo with a surprised look on his face, and then looked at the two people beside him.

"Qui Ruo? Did your teacher let you out? Why did you hang out with these two people?"

Kui Ruo smiled sheepishly after hearing this, making Yi and Mo feel ashamed.

"No, I sneaked out on my own. Why is Master Sly here?"

Sly glanced at the three people on the ring.

"Bring my apprentice here to practice."

"It turns out that the person on the stage is your disciple. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't you come to the institute to sit down?"

Quirrel helped Sly sit down under the shed, looking at the figure waving bone nails on the stage, memories came back to him.

"Old man, I'm old, and I still don't have the energy to run around like before. It's my last wish to teach them what I've learned throughout my life."

When Ida saw this, she said humbly:

"Master, you didn't look like you had no energy at all when you beat me."

"Then believe it or not, I will beat you again."

"..."

The battle on the stage ended quickly. Although the opponent's martial arts skills were not bad, compared to the cooperation of the three of them, they acted like headless flies and really had no power to fight back.

"Brother Morong, why are you here? Are you here to watch our game?"

The three of them walked off the ring. Mato saw the two people next to Sly from a distance, walked quickly to them and said enthusiastically.

"Brother Mato, is it possible that we are here to compete?"

"Ah? Isn't it your turn yet?"

Mo Rong was silent, Ida didn't say anything, and Xio patted Mato.

"They were the first ones up."

The scene was quiet for a while.

"Hehe, I went to eat at the time and didn't pay attention." Mato scratched his head and laughed.

"By the way, master, who is this person next to you?"

The three of them looked at Kui Ruo with some confusion in their eyes. This man seemed to have a good relationship with the master, but they had never seen him before.

"My name is Kui Ruo, hello." Kui Ruo stood up and said hello.

"This can be regarded as half of your senior brother." Sly pointed at Quiruo and said.

"Senior brother?!" This time it was the three of them's turn to be surprised.

"Hehe, the master has taught me some superficial things. I don't dare to take it seriously." Sly said to Quiruo, feeling a little embarrassed.

"When I traveled to Hallownest, his teacher helped me. In order to repay my kindness, I taught his disciple some bone nail skills. That disciple is Quiruo before you."

"I already have a disciple, so it's inconvenient for me to become a disciple again, but if the master teaches me his skills, I will treat him as a half-disciple." Kui Ruo said with a smile.

Only then did Mo Rong understand why Kuiruo's martial arts skills in the game were so powerful. It turned out that Sly was also involved.

A group of people were chatting in the shed and did not watch the next game.

Not long after, night fell, and the thirty-two teams also defeated sixteen to advance.

"Everyone! Today's first round of auditions has ended. All qualified teams are invited to participate in the next game the day after tomorrow."

"I would like to state the rules first. The game the day after tomorrow will be based on points ranking system. Each team will have three basic points."

"One point is added for winning the game, and one point is deducted for losing the game. You can designate your own opponent, but it cannot be repeated. If a team is invited by another team after a battle, it has the right to refuse."

"If multiple teams designate the same team at the same time, the selected team will select the opponent."

"The selected team can also choose to face multiple teams at the same time. If they win, they will get all the points from the other team."

"In the end, the four teams with the highest scores will advance."

"I wish you all good luck in martial arts!"
