Mercenaries and Adventurers

Zhao Ji found that although the sentinel looked big, he actually had no real combat experience. With a big body and great strength, he can certainly gain an advantage in ordinary fights in the countryside, but when it comes to skillful contests, he will be full of loopholes.

Although this stone mill said that he figured out how he was knocked down before, he couldn't change his usual habit of using weapons for a while. Old Duo Mu watched from the sidelines and yelled at him directly. The stone mill who scolded him didn't dare to compete with Kil again.

Seeing that one of the best sentries among his sentries was so incompetent, old Domo clapped his hands and feet, and after a little exercise, he proposed to compete with Kiel himself.

Zhao Ji asked what to do with the previous gambling game, and Lao Duomu agreed, and today the public security station will toss his sentries casually.

Zhao Ji was not interested in instructing the sentries to do anything. He proposed to compete with Old Domo later, and if Kiel won, then Old Domo would have to teach Kiel his own martial arts skills.

"Then what should you do if you lose? Why don't you do this? If I win you in the later contest, you can also teach my sentries about your martial arts. It won't take up your time, It only takes one day to teach, and as much as they can understand is their own, but you have to really show your best martial arts skills." Old Duo Mu suggested to Zhao Ji confidently.

Zhao Ji smiled: "Old Duomu, I promise you if you win."

Nodding his head and agreeing, Old Duomu stared at Shi Mo fiercely, and then snatched the long stick from his hand: "Show me carefully!"

Shi Mo backed up to the wall, and was speechless.

Zhao Ji could see that old Duomu should really care about and cherish this stone mill. If they were not relatives, then old Duomu was cultivating this stone mill on purpose. Of course, Lao Duomu is also getting older, and at this age, it is indeed time to cultivate successors.

For a while, Zhao Ji and Lao Duomu stood at both ends of the training ground inside the gate of the security station.

The onlookers and villagers all stared at the two of them. One is the captain who has managed the militia and sentries in the village for many years. When he was young, he used to protect the migrants across thousands of mountains and rivers, and fought for the lord and eliminated monsters in the village. One is a young brave man from the Saturnalia Church who came from the city. He is a powerful hunter who can kill nearly a hundred goblins in a row by himself in more than ten days.

The two stared at each other for more than ten meters, and neither of them made a move for a while, but the atmosphere gradually became dignified. Even the mud boy sitting on the ground at the gate of the security station can feel it.

Old Duo Mu took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled through his nose. He was tall and had long arms. Grasp the middle of the stick firmly with one hand, while the other hand grasps the end of the stick. The long stick pointed at Kiel at an angle.

Zhao Ji still had the same fighting posture as before, but his aura also became deeper, and his eyes were slightly fixed, staring at Old Duo Mu opposite. He didn't have a detailed understanding of Old Domo's life experience, but occasionally learned from the other party's bragging that although the other party didn't have the energy to go through serious military training, he also experienced many battles with the knight lord of the village when he was young.

Not to be underestimated.

"Ha!" Lao Duomu shouted, his steps were steady, and he rushed towards Zhao Ji first. Zhao Ji's defensive momentum gave Lao Duomu an advantage in the momentum confrontation just now, mainly because Zhao Ji didn't know how skilled Lao Duomu was, so he could only be conservative.

Lao Duomu approached Zhao Ji step by step, but the offensive with the long stick in his hand was very conservative. He just stretched out the long stick first, giving priority to limiting the possibility of Zhao Ji using his steps to improve his body movement.

Zhao Ji couldn't accelerate through his footsteps, so he had to shake his arms and thrust forward quickly. The tip of the other end of the long stick suddenly pointed at Old Domu's arm. It wasn't that Zhao Ji didn't want to hit Old Domu's chest directly, but After getting close to Zhao Ji, old Duo Mu tried his footsteps back and forth, and his body kept moving back and forth, which made it difficult for Zhao Ji to grasp the appropriate attack distance in an instant.

I had no choice but to hit Old Domo on the arm first.

At the moment Zhao Ji attacked, Lao Duomu withdrew his left hand and held the long stick in his right hand. But his right hand was also very strong with one hand, he directly grasped the long stick tightly, and as soon as he threw it out, he pushed away the empty stick that Kiel had hit.

Immediately afterwards, Old Duomu held the long stick again with his left hand, exerted strength with both hands at the same time, and took a big step forward. After closing the distance with Kiel, he stabbed out with the same stick.

Speaking of stabbing, Lao Duomu's stick is actually not a standard stab. The attack arc of his stick is actually a slanted line, which can only be said to be half a swing and half a stab combined together. up.

Zhao Ji judged in an instant that Lao Duomu's blow was powerful and heavy. If he couldn't stop it, he might be directly carried away by this stick.

He didn't choose to resist with the long stick in his hand, he was not good at this after all. Therefore, Zhao Ji lifted his left leg up in the air in an instant, and his right leg supported the weight of his whole body, but his right leg was no longer tense, but he let down his strength and squatted down.

Old Domu's blow was just in the air. Just when he realized that it was bad, Zhao Ji stuck his long stick to Old Domu's long stick, and then quickly followed the long stick to hit it.

Snapped!

The back of Lao Duomu's left hand happened to be hit by Zhao Ji's stick, along the stick. Although neither of them exerted the greatest strength, Zhao Ji's stick hit the back of Old Domu's hand, which still made Old Domu's hand numb from the beating, and he couldn't hold the long stick.

Zhao Ji's left leg fell down again, and then he squatted and stood up with strength. With this strength, Zhao Ji's long stick was directly thrown out, and it hit Lao Duomu's stick from the gap in his left arm. chest.

Zhao Ji first lightly tapped Lao Duomu's chest, and then exerted force on the long stick against the opponent's chest, pushing Lao Duomu up all at once.

Zhao Ji exerted force from the bottom obliquely upwards, so this blow directly sent old Duomu's old but still strong body flying up.

After being lifted up by Kiel, Old Domou had mastered the balance of the body's center of gravity in the air, so when he fell, he landed on both feet, and failed to fall to the ground like the stone mill before, making a big fool of himself .

Although old Duomu still looked good when he landed, everyone onlookers could tell that old Duomu just lost.

People sighed for a while and made a neat sound of "Hey~", which made the old Domo flushed immediately: "It's alright, alright, the warrior Kiel is great, I'm not his opponent. Let it be!" After finishing speaking Finally, Lao Duomu hurriedly stroked the beard on his chin with one hand to calm down the embarrassing feeling, while throwing the long stick in his right hand to the stone mill.

Zhao Ji smiled. It was really a thrilling moment just now. If he hadn't had an idea and squatted down to avoid a powerful blow from the opponent, otherwise he didn't know how to seize the gap and turn defeat into victory.

His long spear is actually not very practical, and the long sword and shield are the fighting methods he is good at now.

"Then I would like to trouble you, old Duomu, to teach me later. You are good at martial arts. Now it happened that yesterday I said that I would show you my armor. Everyone is here. I will change it for you to have a look now."

Old Duo Mu groaned and then sat down on the wooden pier he had made before to rest, but judging from the gesture of his hands crossed over his chest, he was very unwilling to lose to a young man just now.

The onlookers, who had just watched a short but thrilling battle training, did not seem to be enjoyable. When they heard that the Kiel warrior was about to show off his armor, they immediately became happy again.

The sentries also came over curiously.

Zhao Ji opened the wooden box, took out the armor parts one by one, and placed them on the flat ground for everyone to watch.

No one expected that there are so many armor parts of the Kiel Warrior, and it is quite interesting to look at them one by one on the ground. Compared with the villagers, the onlookers who are both sentinels and village militias have seen the armor of the guards in the city. They thought that the armor of the Kiel warriors was roughly the same as those of the guards. They did not expect that the armor of the Kiel warriors was so much so many parts.

Old Duo Mu was well-informed, and recognized at a glance that although Kiel's armor was hard leather armor, it was a full-cover hard leather armor: "Why is this a full-cover hard leather armor?"

After Zhao Ji put all the armor parts on the ground, he picked up the helmet of the armor and said to Old Domo, "Is there anything strange?"

Old Duomu pointed to the armor parts on the ground: "Leather armor needs its lightness. As a result, your full-cover armor loses the lightness of leather armor? If you pursue defensiveness, then you Why not use iron armor? The worst iron armor is better than fine leather armor?"

After Zhao Ji put the helmet on his head and patted it, he smiled and said: "The reason for this is not that I don't have enough money, iron armor is good, of course I know, but iron armor is expensive, I can't buy a whole set Iron armor. Those guys are all money I saved from clearing the slime monsters in the swamp south of Kendall City."

While talking, Zhao Ji put various armor parts on his body one by one. As the area covered by the armor on his body increased, his entire aura changed.

After Zhao Ji connected the arm guards and gloves of his hands, and finally put down the visor on the helmet, the whole person cannot be said to be a steel machine, but it can also be said that Zhao Ji's full-coverage leather armor is really very Heroic and imposing.

In particular, some of the gaps on the armor still had some blood left when they killed goblins, which added some **** smell to the armor.

Old Domo got up and walked over, carefully sniffing, and gave Kiel a good amount of the armor he had put on: "I take back what I said before, your armor is really good, especially for hunting those monsters. Not bad, not bad. "

The sentries gathered around Zhao Ji, carefully looking at the black and brown armor. Zhao Ji walked a few steps towards the villagers, and let the villagers look at and touch his armor closely.

The adults did not dare to touch the armor that smelled of blood, but the mud children who were not afraid of anything boldly approached Zhao Ji, carefully touching Zhao Ji's arms and calves covered by the armor with their little hands.

"Be careful of the spikes on the armor, be careful, don't get hurt." Zhao Ji was wearing a face mask, so he couldn't see those little children. Vibrations know where they're touching.

Seeing that the children had started to touch it, the others boldly crowded around. Everyone whispered to others about the armor of the Kiel warrior. Everyone touched the hard leather armor on the armor curiously, or tapped it with their fingers to feel the solid feeling from their hands.

The sentries even came together, and they all excitedly expressed their opinions to each other. Some people felt that wearing so many armors must be quite troublesome to walk around.

Some people think that this armor is less interesting than the iron armor he has seen on the soldiers of the kingdom. Although it is very special to protect the whole body with armor, it is enough to protect the vital parts of the body when fighting.

Some people came to Old Domo and told Old Domo that it would be best to equip all their sentries with such armor. Old Domo immediately gave the sentry a head-on~www.readwn.com~Seeing that the sentry was full of incomprehension, he sighed and asked Kiel: "Kiel, tell these boys, you How much does this suit of armor cost? Open their eyes."

Zhao Ji shrugged, thought for a while and said, "I spent about less than one gold coin, so don't think the price is low. This is because the craftsmen only charge for materials, not a single processing fee. If you want to charge processing and manufacturing costs, I think it will cost three or four gold coins just by looking at the time and cost of making this armor. If you count it all together, I guess the total value of this armor should be five to six About a gold coin."

At the beginning, I heard the Kiel warrior say that the materials only cost one gold coin, and the other sentinels still had some hope on their faces, but when Zhao Ji calculated all the expenses, they all became listless again.

Although the villagers in the village can eat enough and each family has surplus food, they really don't have much money. If they ask acquaintances or relatives to borrow some, a few families can scrape together one gold coin, but if it is five gold coins, they will never be able to get it out. The money they save every year is not even enough to pay back the interest on the loan.

Old Domo didn't expect that the price of the armor of the Kiel Warrior was so cheap, and he heard that the armor was only charged for materials. He thought about it and thought that the Church of Saturn might have played a role in it. Thinking of this, he put away his plan to find someone to make a few sets of armor.

He didn't know that Zhao Ji's armor was so cheap, it was entirely because this set of armor was not made by an experienced armor craftsman, but was made by an armor apprentice to be promoted to a formal craftsman.

It is estimated that Old Duomu knew that it was an armor made by an apprentice craftsman at that time, so he might not dare to save the armor processing fee.
