Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 618 The Authority of the Royal Family

Xia Feng clenched his fists tightly, he could not mistake the woman on the ring who knocked her opponent away with a sword, she was Skadi!
At this moment, his brain was confused, and Miss Orca even signed up. Because there were too many contestants and the rings were too far apart, he didn't notice it for two days.

Countless questions pierced Xia Feng's thoughts like a flood.

Why did Skadi come to Victoria's fencing competition?

How did she sign up?
What is her purpose?
Could it be that she wants to be a nobleman?

Or is it purely for the bonus?
In fact, calm down and think about it. All of the above possibilities may exist. Skadi is a bounty hunter. Of course, as a bounty hunter, he can do it for money, which is reasonable.

But Xia Feng knew that Skadi didn't become a bounty hunter just to make money.

She left the deep sea and came to land, which may have other deeper and more complicated meanings.

The most important thing is that just a few months ago, he met Skadi in Sami's natural disaster area, and was saved by her from the [Deep Code] cult.

At that time, their targets were undoubtedly ghost sharks.

Staring closely at Skadi on the ring in the distance, Xia Feng immediately stepped forward.

Seeing him leave without saying a word, Ah Guang immediately shouted.

"Brother Feng? Why are you going?"

"I have something to do, I'll be right back."

Passing through the crowd, Xia Feng rushed towards Skadi's arena with a solemn expression. He needed to confirm something with her face to face.

Skadi's match ended neatly. Her opponent was thrown several tens of meters away by a sword, fell to the ground and fell unconscious.

The medical staff immediately carried the injured away, and the referee immediately announced Skadi's victory. Then, she turned and jumped off the ring.

When Xia Feng hurriedly arrived, Skadi had disappeared into the crowd.

When Skadi couldn't be found, Xia Feng grabbed the referee.

"Where was that person just now?"

"Which one?"

"It's the female contestant who knocked people flying and held the giant sword."

"gone."

"Gone? Does she still have a game today?"

The referee looked at the small notebook in his hand.

"It's gone. She has won consecutively all the way. Except for her, almost everyone in this group has lost. If there is no accident, she has already advanced directly."

Skadi may advance directly, which means that she may not be used to participate in the group stage tomorrow, and will directly enter the top 32.

evening.

After dinner, Xia Feng found Maren Legg alone.

Standing in the corridor of the logistics area of ​​the competition, Legg kept looking at his watch.

"Xia Feng, what's the matter with you, I'm very busy."

Xia Feng looked very serious.

"Mr. Legge, I'm looking for someone."

"who?"

"A contestant, I want to know where she lives."

Laige's expression changed drastically, and he said vigilantly.

"Looking for a player? What do you want to do? If you can't beat you on the field, you still want to play black, right?"

Xia Feng waved his hands again and again.

"No, no, you misunderstood. That person is my friend. I want to chat with her."

Maren Legg hugged his shoulders.

"If you're really a friend, you don't have any contact information? I warn you, this is a game that the royal family focuses on. Don't play tricks on me, and I won't be able to protect you if something happens."

The places where the contestants were arranged were kept extremely secret, and there was no other way. Maren Legg was one of the persons in charge of this competition, but in terms of authority, he could no longer cover the sky with one hand.

Xia Feng sighed.

"Forget it, Mr. Legge, excuse me."

"Okay, you go back to rest early."

Before leaving, Xia Feng seemed to suddenly think of something again.

"Mr. Legge, I have something to ask."

Maren Leger pushed down his glasses.

"What else do you have to do? Hurry up, I'm really busy."

Xia Feng narrowed his eyes, carefully staring at Laige's expression.

"Among the contestants in this competition, are there any people who have not passed the official registration and were secretly arranged by the high-level."

Legge frowned.

"What do you mean, the competition is supervised by the royal family, no matter how high the officials are, no matter how big the nobles are, don't even think about going through the back door."

Xia Feng lowered his voice.

"Then if the royal family operates it personally, will they secretly arrange people who do not meet the regulations?"

Hearing Xia Feng's words, the corners of Maren Legg's eyes twitched imperceptibly.

"Xia Feng."

"kindness?"

"Are you questioning the authority of the royal family?"

Xia Feng smiled easily, breaking the solemn atmosphere.

"Oh, no, no, I just asked casually, the Victorian royal family is number one in the world, long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live. I'm leaving first, bye."

After all, Xia Feng slipped away.

On the way back, Xia Feng was not as relaxed as he seemed just now, and Maren Leger's reaction told him that there seemed to be something tricky about it.

There are a lot of applicants for this swordsmanship competition, and at the same time, their identities are also very messy.

He didn't talk about it himself. Besides him, there was the swordsman next to Kahn who was suspected to be from the Eastern Kingdom. In addition, there was Skadi who I saw today. Of course, there might be more players with special identities.

This time the champion will receive the title of nobility, which is a status with far more meaning than value.

Aristocrats can enter the Yuan Council, learn about the important decisions of the country in advance, and interfere with the decisions. If the person who wins the championship has a special status, it is almost equivalent to handing over the keys of his own backyard to outsiders.

Would the Victorian royal family really be so generous, or would they really make such a low-level mistake?
Granting the title of nobility requires reasonable reasons and requires the permission of the Yuan Council. That is to say, it is impossible for the royal family to just point their fingers on the road and say that you will be a nobleman from tomorrow.

And this swordsmanship competition, in a sense, is like a deliberately created reason.

The wedding gown has already been woven and is just waiting to be worn by the person the royal family wants to see.

Day three.

The morning in winter is cold, but the sun that gradually rises to the sky quickly brings warmth to people.

Today is the last day of the group stage of the swordsmanship competition. After today's competition is over, the top 32 will be born.

Before the start of the competition, Xia Feng patrolled the eight arenas like a paparazzi. Unsurprisingly, Skadi was not found. It seems that the official has notified her to advance.

But it doesn't matter, he is not very worried, as long as the game is not over, there will always be encounters in the subsequent schedule.

"Boom!"

With the sound of the gong, Xia Feng's final day of competition has begun.

After a few days, he has fully understood the strength of his group, and without any suspense, he will definitely advance smoothly.

Now what he needs to care about is whether Franka and others will advance as smoothly as him, because the more of his own people entering the follow-up competition, the greater the chance of winning.

Subjectively, Xia Feng believed in everyone's strength, but objectively, he was a little worried.

His intuition told him that this swordsmanship competition might not be as simple as it seems.
