Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer
Chapter 738 589 We participate on behalf of Asur
Perhaps it was because Malanur's expression was too funny, or perhaps it was because the statue was too abstract, the Druki who were walking in the front laughed with a hint of disdain and anger. The Asrai who saw the statue up close on the left side of the team couldn't help but laugh, and Kerillian laughed the loudest.
"Which black ark are you from?" Maranul said coldly, then he raised the tall statue again, but unlike last time, this time he aimed at Duruchi's head.
"My lord... My lord... Ultimate... Oblivion." Drucci, who was lying on the ground, began to tremble at a high frequency, so that he could not speak clearly. He came here to try his luck, but he knew that he had messed up and was in trouble, a big trouble.
"You are such a disgrace, you are lucky, get out of here!" Maranul wanted to hit Druch's head to execute him, but he finally gave up the plan.
The wood has changed from wood to a statue, and has become a symbol and a symbol. The black panther has symbolic meaning to the skinks, and the same is true for Ryan in the team. And with so many friends watching here, it's not good.
Drucci still had some luck, but it was a little late...
When Drucci turned on the reverse button, at 16 times the speed, he crawled away in a flash.
Maranul nodded to the Skin Lizard in a friendly manner and handed the statue to the Skin Lizard. It still couldn't be thrown away, and he had no intention of taking out the thorn blade and processing it on the spot. His living environment did not give him that skill.
As the skin lizard took it, it tilted its head from the left to the right. After taking a look at Maranul, it stretched out its left hand from behind its back, ready to hand the golden statue to Maranul.
Malanul smiled and waved his hand, rejecting the statue offered by the Skink, then rejoined the group.
Dacus, who witnessed everything, was also amused, or rather, angry. He knew why the Skin Lizard had always refused to agree to the deal. The level of abstraction of Druki's statue was no less than that of the stuffed lion that had been placed in the castle and mocked for three hundred years.
In 1731, someone sent a lion as a gift to thank the King of Sweden. Later, the lion died, and its fur and bones were sent to a taxidermist, who was asked to make a lion specimen. After receiving the task, he felt very embarrassed. Although he had made specimens of other animals, he had never made a lion specimen. There were no lions in Northern Europe, nor zoos. He had only seen lions on badges, and he had never seen what a living lion looked like. But this was the king's task, and he had to do it well. The result was...
The specimen of the male lion was completed, its ears were wrinkled and almost stuck to its scalp, its eyes were large and round and close together, its mouth was exaggerated and stuck out a long tongue, its entire face was distorted and seriously distorted, but it still walked with a proud stride.
The combination of the two styles creates a strong contrast, so strong that people will laugh when they see it. Now, the sculpture of the one who retreated away quickly is as abstract as the lion specimen.
Seeing all this, Marlene said nothing this time. Her past experiences and cognition taught her when to say something and when not to say anything.
"Can I understand that he is fooling the Lizardmen?" Kaia, who witnessed all this, asked in a low voice.
"Yes, you can also understand that this is his limit." This time, Daxus did not make up for Drucci, but continued speaking.
He could guess what Drucci was up to with his toes. He simply heard that the Lizardmen had a lot of money and were easy to cheat, so he made one that looked like the statue he saw in the city, but his craftsmanship was not very good and he did not have the background of an old-fashioned pirate. His beauty was like using broken glass to cheat the natives.
Skins are biological robots, but they have independent thoughts, the ability to think, emotions, and aesthetics. The Skins living in Chapeiuto must have been deceived at first, there is no doubt about that, living in the society of lizardmen, they have never seen the tricks of Drucci. Fortunately, Walter and Dorian were there to ease the situation and provide guidance, so those who were not deceived were no longer deceived.
Now... the skin lizards are still willing to trade with Duruchi. There is no other way. The things Duruchi brought are too rare and strange for them. The white fork bell that Chupakoko hangs around his waist has become a fashion among the Chapeuto skin lizards.
But they had learned from being cheated before, and the skin lizards willing to trade with Duruchi were all very capable. And the past ten years had also made them realize that the gold and gems in their hands were valuable to Duruchi, and not just decorations or crafts like in the Lizardmen society.
As the Druki from all over the world came in large numbers, the Skinks were more willing to trade, as they knew these Druki would not stay long. But along with this came more troubles, and even vicious incidents. Dorian was originally in the welcoming team, but...
"Pay attention to this later and try to avoid this kind of behavior." After taking two steps, Dakus, who knew Duruchi's character too well, gave Kaia another warning.
"I will." Kaia nodded.
As the procession continued to move forward, the surrounding environment began to change dramatically. The streets were gradually filled with colorful holiday flags, which were very different from the usual dark tones and solemn atmosphere of Duruchi. These flags used bright colors, crimson, sapphire blue, emerald green, and gold interwoven into the bright colors. They were particularly eye-catching under the light, making the whole area exude a joyful atmosphere.
A large number of Skinks and a few Druki were busy together. The Skinks sat on the shoulders of the monitors and concentrated on hanging the flags high up, patiently adjusting the flag corners to ensure that each side could be displayed in the wind. Although the Druki were not used to such bright colors, they were also infected by the atmosphere of the upcoming festival. They carefully arranged the flags and hung strings of flowers and decorations on the pillars that had no meaning but were simply decorated. The Skinks were responsible for the statues that had meanings.
Preparations for the festival were already in full swing, with busy figures everywhere, but there was no constant laughter, nor was there a festive atmosphere throughout the neighborhood, as if to include everyone in the celebration. One reason was that the Duruchis were a little uncomfortable, and the other was that this place was close to the comprehensive area.
The main activities of the newly arrived Duruchi were at the docks and in the north. These Duruchi either had some savings or some status, and could live in the already full inns. Most of the Duruchi could only live in the cabins and black arks when they had no missions, preparing for the festival in another way.
"Have you heard of Blood Bowl Football?" After walking for a while, Daxus asked in a mysterious tone.
"I just heard Tolandil mention it." Eltharion, who was interested in this aspect, took a step forward.
"Well, now you've heard it." Daxus said as if he was reciting a line, and then he raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a half-expecting, half-provocative smile, looking at the elves around him, especially Eltharion who was eager to try, "Blood Bowl rugby is a sport full of violence and skills, combined with exciting elements. The game is divided into two teams, each with eleven people. The goal is to get the ball to the opponent's end zone. The team with the most points is the winner."
Eltharion's eyes lit up and his expression became more serious, trying to grasp the deeper meaning of Dacreus' words.
"It's not just about grabbing the ball and scoring, it's also about using physical force to suppress opponents. It can even be said that accidents are part of the game and players can 'reasonably' use violence."
The elves who were listening looked at each other, obviously not fully understanding yet.
"The rules are simple. Carry the ball to the other side's goal. Even though there will be people blocking you on the way, don't worry about them. Use all your skills and strength to deal with them. Occasionally, you can even pretend not to see the referee. In short... as long as you score with the ball, no one will blame your method. You will only receive applause and cheers."
Dacus spoke briefly, without going into any of the long-winded stuff, such as the origin, what is rugby, what is blood bowl, and what is the difference between the two. This world does not have these theories, and the origin of everything must start from him, leaving the definition, theory, history, etc. to future generations.
He also briefly explained the rules, and also didn't start the verbose mode. Just kidding, it would take a long time to explain, and he didn't know some of the rules, so they would have to be improved in subsequent competitions.
"Are you going?"
"No! I'll be the commentator." Daxus glanced at Issarion. He knew too well what Issarion was planning. He could only say that Issarion was thinking too much.
Now he is already in a high position and is no longer a crappy junior disciple of a sect who needs to rely on the sect competition to make a splash and gain something. Unless he plays in the All-Star Competition, such as the Dread Lords team led by Malekith against the Admiral team led by Daquus, or the Lizardmen team led by the Great White Lizard against the Druki team led by Malekith, and so on...
"Where are they?" Eltharion curled his lips when his idea failed, then raised his hand behind him.
"There are fourteen arks moored here. Not counting the province of Anureil, there are currently six provinces in the Asheril region. In addition, both Ainir and Asrai have representative teams participating. The Talos and Tyrandor you are familiar with are preparing for this."
In fact, the Asheril region has eight provinces including the Anurel province. The two islands in the north are also under the jurisdiction of the Asheril region, but there is no one there now, so Daxus naturally did not mention it.
Eltharion, whose interest was aroused, did not say anything at first, but looked at Siglin and Finarfin beside him, then looked at Geron who was half a body behind, and finally looked at Marin in front of him.
"In other words, there are 22 teams in total now?" asked Marlene, who calculated the result immediately.
"No, there are also Enil, Aslai, Lizardmen and Red Dragon Team, a total of 26 teams." Daxus gave the Asurs another surprise.
"Red Dragon?" Bel-Aihor, who had been silent, asked in surprise.
“Just like you, they are also my friends. You left too hastily and they came too late, so…” Daxus said while making crisscross gestures.
"We will participate! As... the Asur representative team!" Marlene made the decision immediately.
Dacus smiled. He was not afraid of the Asurs seeing him. Although he still fought with cold weapons, he changed the rules of war and started to play with volume, that is, I have more money, more soldiers, more generals, more food, more dragons, more ships, more training, etc. The Asurs thought they saw it, but they saw nothing. They saw the leopard through the tube, but they didn't see it.
What he was afraid of was that the Asurs were not interested. He was not worried that Drucci would make a fool of himself. He still had this confidence. If he didn't have this, what was the point of him coming out?
He wanted to give the Asurs a little shock so that they would think about it carefully.
In his opinion, the red dragon was never a trump card. If there was no red dragon, there was still the black dragon. Thousands of years had passed, and the great invasion, the great division, and the war of revenge had all been fought. Asur had corresponding countermeasures, as if the red dragon could be used as a trump card to give Asur a fatal blow, as if the eagle claw crossbow could not shoot into the air. In terms of abstraction, Asur was not much worse than Druki.
"I will arrange for someone to contact you later to explain the rules to you and provide you with competition equipment. During this time, you can make appropriate preparations and training."
"I just heard there are other competitions?"
"Of course, there are also sheep shearing, team battles, archery, jousting, wrestling, duels, horse racing, and chariot racing. I like the excitement, so if you want to join in, you can sign up now." "What are the rules for the team battle?" asked Jeroen.
"Wear protective gear and be equipped with wooden melee weapons. Five team members plus a captain will compete with the team with the same configuration within the designated range. No guarding of corners, no circling, and no long-term confrontation are allowed. The captain cannot engage in combat, cannot block or dodge, and can only move. Violators will be directly deemed the loser. Five team members who fall before the captain will be eliminated and will be directly deemed the loser. If the captain falls before the team members, the team will be directly deemed the loser." Daxus explained patiently.
Teamfights are not two groups of people rushing up and fighting, and then having a blood-boiling championship duel. This is meaningless except for the excitement. The championship duel is a bit cheating, it is purely a matter of strength, destroying teamwork through personal strength, which really doesn't give any chance. Moreover, if you want to watch a championship duel, why not watch a duel? Why play teamfights?
According to the rules, the captain cannot participate in the battle, but can only command, which has the flavor of protecting Athena and guarding the fountain. However, according to the rules, Athena can move, but only move. This makes the scene lively, and there are more ways to play and tactics. It all depends on the captain's command, the team members' awareness, martial arts and on-site performance. They can form a semicircular formation, or they can be arranged in two or four formations, etc. The main feature is flexibility. So you can't go around, otherwise the spectators will be dizzy after a while.
Now that everyone is participating, there will be many participating teams. First, there will be an audition, and then there will be an audition in the 0.5-man team, and finally they will participate as a representative team. This is done to screen talents, a bit like the version of the Naggaroth stage, where you come if there is work, and the other is to let the warriors see the style of the followers of the Lord of Blades.
"It's a test of cooperation, command and coordination? Interesting." As a soldier and officer, Jielong immediately understood why there were so many rules and offered his insights.
"Yes, you are my friends. You can directly participate in the official competition without going through auditions. There is no limit on the number of people. You can form an elite team to participate and communicate with each other."
"We'll join in." Marlene sighed after feeling the eager gazes of the crowd.
"What about archery?" asked Bel-Aihor. He thought his archery skills were pretty good, but he now knew that this was probably not ordinary archery. There must be some strange rules involved.
"There are two types of archery: horseback archery and foot archery. You are not allowed to use your own bows and arrows. You must use the designated bows and arrows for the competition. You are not allowed to use magic to guide arrows. Before the competition begins, contestants must check everything. For horseback archery, you must shoot left and right while the horse is constantly crossing obstacles. There are targets on the left, right, front, back, and in the sky. You are not allowed to perform horsemanship, and you are not allowed to stand on the horse. The winner will be judged based on the total score." Dacus continued to explain patiently. Then he smiled as if he had thought of something and added, "By the way, shooting with the right hand will add more points than shooting with the left hand."
Unlike some games, the cavalry's shooting range is 360°. There are some rules for large groups of cavalry to shoot on horseback, especially when two teams are good at horseback shooting. If one team occupies the right side of the other team, the other team will face a devastating blow. This has nothing to do with wind direction and height, but with shooting from both sides.
If you are in the right position, you can use your left hand to draw the bow directly, but if you are in the left position, it will be difficult and you have to use your right hand to draw the bow. The human-machine efficiency of the left and right hands is here. Unless you have practiced it specially, otherwise...
"Matheran, what about the shooting?" Bel-Ahol asked with a raised eyebrow.
He just wouldn't say the word "mentality", otherwise he would definitely say it. The combination of the various rules made the difficulty of the competition increase linearly, and ordinary archers simply couldn't play it. This not only tested archery skills, but also riding skills, and even more so, mentality. In his opinion, this required the pioneers among the plunderers of the Kingdom of Elion to participate in the competition, and even the pioneers were not enough, but the Silver Helmets of Elion, and they had to be blessed by Kunos.
"The basic rules are the same as those for mounted archery, but during the shooting process, you need to move and encounter various obstacles. You need to roll, climb, jump, and swing to complete the shooting during the action. There is no route restriction, only a time limit. The venue and shooting targets are shaped by Shilan, and each time is different, random, and fair." Daxus first glanced at Bel-Aihor. He could see the desire in the other's eyes. He roughly knew what the other was thinking, but... he shook his head and told the story.
The participants of the sheep shearing competition are all Duruchi, Ryan and Cowell also signed up. The reason why all Duruchi participated is related to Duruchi's tradition and skills. This is Duruchi's specialty... (no need to expand)
The archery stage is purely prepared for Ai Niel and Aslai to show off, so that the Duruchi can see their style, so that they can gain a foothold in the Duruchi society and integrate better through strength rather than Daqiu's friends. After all, the Duruchi society is ultimately about the size of the fist.
In addition, it also provides an opportunity for Enil and Aslai to compete with each other, but not to decide life and death, to see which of the two branches of the elves has better archery skills.
Asur is good at archery, but it depends on who he is compared with. It is definitely no problem to compare with Druki, because only a small number of Druki use bows, and most of them use crossbows. But if he compares with Ainir and Asrai... unless the Shadow King comes with his shadow warriors.
The competition venue is fixed, but the terrain and targets are random, created by the special guest Master Xia. Master Xia's algorithm is there, and there is no such thing as being at a disadvantage if you are not familiar with the venue first. For every contestant, the venue is brand new.
There is no luck involved, it is completely fair, just and open. It all depends on your skills, mentality and on-the-spot performance.
During this process, Dacus had no intention of leaning towards either side. There was no need, and he had no political needs. Both sides were his friends, and it all came down to strength. If he was not convinced, he would find an opportunity to compete again.
This time, Marlene didn't say, "We'll join." She was waiting, waiting for someone to step forward.
"I'm in!" Maybe it was the pride of being an Asur, maybe it was his youth, maybe it was his personality, or maybe it was something else, but Istharion stood up.
Hot Knowledge: Eltharion can shoot arrows. His bow is named after him and has guiding magic. Archery is one of the skills that must be mastered by Asur nobles. They must start practicing from a young age, regardless of gender. As for the level of skill, that is another matter.
"I'll join in too!"
"I attended!"
Bel-Ehor and Finarfin also stepped forward one after another.
"it is good!"
Afterwards, Daxus introduced the rules of other competitions. The jousting was simple, and there was no lance duel. They were elves, not Bretonnian lords, although they also used lances.
But there are also activities, there are two events, the first is a horse-riding duel, either knocking the opponent off the horse to win, or hitting the opponent's points to win. The main contestants are the dark riders from the garrison and the Black Ark, in addition to some elite units, such as the followers of Edreze, Ai Nier and Asrai who are good at this, and now there are Asur, the main competition is personal riding and martial arts.
The other is Jiju, which is also called polo. It depends on teamwork, individual riding skills and ball sense. After hearing that the sorceresses led by Drusala and Colonia would participate, Marin and Adeanna expressed their willingness to participate, and also brought in Belloda and Siglin. There were only four players. A complete team needed ten people, but it was very simple. There were both men and women among the sea guards and sailors.
But there is no talk of women's competition. Teams composed of women will compete with men in all competitions, whether it is the Duruchi society, the Asur, or... There is no such a pile of sayings, no women can't get on the ship, it will be considered ominous, if you have the guts to say this to Serene, try to say it to the high-level priests composed of women. There is no women who must stay at home or cover their faces when they go out.
The Great Sundering changed elven society. Since then, there have been no noble ladies wearing armor, carrying bows and swords to fight alongside men. Equal pay for equal work, the same social obligations, and a large number of outstanding female representatives from each branch. There are only so many elves, and everything depends on their ability. Moreover, each elven woman is like the Dutch track and field athlete Femke Bol, who has height and muscles, but no strong strength. However, elves generally do not show off their strength.
Daxus liked this kind of rules. It was good. It was neither too high nor too low, neither left nor right. It emphasized a balance that satisfied all parties. It was not like... nor was it like the world where Drizzt Do'Urden lived.
Wrestling is close combat, and the rules are simple, just like when Dacus played Gobang with Finnubar, and when Baine and Seonlan competed. It's just that lizardmen and red dragons are prohibited from participating, otherwise it's impossible to play. The giant lizard doesn't even need to move, just hit it there and wait for the opponent to exhaust his strength. If you're more violent, you can even grab the opponent's legs directly, then swing it up and smash it to the ground. How to play this, hit the giant lizard's knees, or trip the giant lizard.
The same goes for the duel, where the lizardmen and red dragons were banned. The red dragons were not interested in participating either, as they knew what they were good at and what they were not good at as they came into contact with the elves more and more.
The rules are also very simple. You have to use designated weapons and armor to fight a champion duel or singles. The winner is the one who knocks down the opponent or gets full points. No other blessings or gains are allowed. The competition is all about martial arts, the purest martial arts. Siglin, Finarfin, Eltharion, Geron and other Asur have expressed their willingness to participate.
Horse racing is not about speed. What is there to compare with speed? Dacus doesn't gamble either. Of course, he opened the market, an official market, to meet the needs of the Druks. Not only did he open the market, but he also held a lottery. The rules are similar to those of rifle shooting, testing the rider's riding skills and agility. The venue not only prepared obstacles for the horses, but also for the knights, giving the dark riders a stage to show themselves.
Don't say that you didn't give me a chance. There was no chance. Dakus did his best to give me a chance, but if I gave it to you and you couldn't grasp it, it was no longer his business. He was Daku's father, the father of all the Duruchis, not just the father of a certain Duruchi.
The rules of the chariot race are somewhat similar to those of Rome. Four horses pull the Scourge Chariot, which is specially modified for the race and has no magic blessing, and is driven by a rider. However, the competition venue is not in the arena. The competition venue in the Lizardmen Barracks is not big enough. It is good for playing rugby, but the horses cannot run. Daxus was too lazy to modify it, so he chose to race on the streets of Chapeiuto directly. At that time, the elves and lizardmen could stay on the roadside or high places to watch the race and cheer for their favorite teams.
In terms of teams, Dacus also referred to Rome, and divided them into four teams, red, white, blue and yellow, simply using colors to distinguish the teams. There is no political statement, and it is not linked to gods. If it is linked to gods, it will be troublesome. There are so many elves and gods here, how many teams and how many games will be needed. Then came the political and religious issues. What will the team representing Asuryan say if it is beaten by other teams? Will the players commit suicide to apologize? Will other gods punish them? It's just looking for trouble.
Maybe in the future? In Naggaroth, the four colors correspond to the four cities other than Gorond and Har Ganthi? The team colors will also change? But this is all for the future. What he needs to do is to lay out a sample and establish the rules.
One morning is set aside in a week for the competition. Each team has three players and competes in three games. Each player participates in one game. Finally, the winning team is selected based on the total score of the three games. The competition lasts for three weeks. In the last week, which is the climax of the festival, the last three games are held. The total score of the three weeks of competition is judged to select the final winning team of the festival and the MVP of the team.
This way, the gameplay is richer. The whole Tian Ji horse racing is not a problem, and the showmanship is not a problem. However, it is strictly prohibited by Dacus. It is illegal to spread nails on the race road, and it is punishable by death. There are more and more opening statements. Don’t you like gambling? No problem, he will meet Drucci’s needs. You can buy weekly wins, total wins, individual wins, etc. You can even go big, change a motorcycle, and make a pass to predict all nine games in one go.
Perhaps one day, mechanical vehicles will gradually replace horses, but the elven war horses will not disappear. Instead, they will shine in another way. Perhaps one day, the elves will ride on war horses to fight again?
In addition to the martial arts, there are also literary ones.
The recitation was based on the theme of Aenarion, and a martial arts song was written and sung. After that, a judging team headed by Liarriel and Dakwus scored and selected the champion. Dakwus needed something in this area to carry out publicity work in Naggaroth and Asheril, and Aenarion was the best choice.
Aenarion's deeds are acknowledged. There are statues of him in Lothern, and his story is told throughout Ulthuan, and even more so in Naggaroth, and in Laurent Loren and Athel Loren.
Forget about Malekith. How can he compete? How can he sing it? Can he sing it? Can he not blush when singing it? He can't sing it at all! Let alone Dacus. Even Malekith can't do it, how can he do it?
The board game is a military flag game. There is no individual competition, which is too time-consuming, so it is a team game. Dacus is going to open a loophole in this regard later. Five-on-five, it emphasizes teamwork and cooperation. You can't communicate with each other by language, let alone eye contact. You can only deduce through the dynamics of the chess pieces, not only looking at your own and the enemy's, but also taking into account friendly forces.
The operation is a bit like Total War Online, but you can't turn on voice, typing, or PIN signals. It all depends on the players' cooperation, tactical literacy, and awareness. It is estimated that there will be a lot of fun, and there is a high probability that the friendly forces are in trouble, what does it have to do with me; the friendly forces are in turmoil, but I remain as still as a mountain; this wave, it's a coordination problem.
It could be that there was too much life and it was too rich, it could be that participation was important, it could be self-esteem and pride, it could be that he wanted to steal the show, or it could be... In short, except for the chariot race, which he could not participate in, and the sheep shearing competition, which he had no interest in, Asur participated in all other competitions. Marin, who was good at rhetoric, signed up for recitation, ready to compete with Tolandil, Riel and the war dancers.
"Who are we waiting for?" Standing at the entrance of the Mask Palace, Vizilin looked at Dulias beside him and asked in a low voice. (End of this chapter)
