“…”
Maria gritted her teeth and slowly supported her body. Her physical strength dropped rapidly. The sword and shield in her hand were as heavy as steel and rock, and pain of varying degrees came from all over her body.
Different from training, this is a real fight. The cruel side of knight competition is completely displayed in front of Maria.
[It seems to be paralyzed... the arm is almost at its limit, and that gun can't get close at all...】
Panting heavily, Maria had just straightened up when Titus' spear in her left hand had arrived, hitting her thin body heavily, and knocking Maria away.
"Continue." Titus with his left hand looked at Maria's distressed appearance, and picked the tip of the gun, "Is this not enough? Just like your lingering family."
"Stand up! Then be defeated by me!"
Gritting her teeth, Maria didn't pay attention to Titus' sarcasm, just stood up again and again, picked up the weapon, and was defeated again.
The gap is too big, this is simply not an opponent that Maria can handle now.
In the auditorium, all eyes were fixed on the field, and Lin Guang who used the transformation ring was sitting alone on it, Zofia was late because of some things, Ashes and Solar were early in the morning She couldn't find anyone, so now she is the only one in the four-seat seat.
Her gaze never left Maria's body, watching her defeat again and again, standing up again and again, her tenacious appearance was all seen by Linguang.
What is she thinking?
no one knows.
1 hour and 47 minutes after the start of the Knights Rodeo --
"Are you still not giving up? Even if it's a poor performance, there should be a limit."
Titus stood his spear horizontally, aiming at Maria who had been struggling under his hands for nearly two hours. Even though her legs were already unsteady, even though her hands were trembling, Maria still Get up tenaciously.
Her light is as weak as a candle, but it has not been extinguished so far.
"Aha..."
Maria's mind was almost turned into a pile of paste. The high-intensity battle and extremely tense spirit exhausted her physically and mentally, and her consciousness was a little blurred.
So what is she thinking at this moment?
Is it fighting?Is it a game?Is it victory or defeat?
No, she was thinking about the past.
I vaguely remember that when she was a child, the old Pegasus of Linguang's family was still alive. At that time, the Kasimir knights were real knights. They guarded the territory and repelled the invading enemies. , any Casimir will be engraved in his heart after seeing it.
It was also from that time that a small seed was planted in Maria's heart. She also wanted to become a powerful knight like her grandfather, to protect her family and fellow countrymen.
But I don't know when it started, the name of the knight seems to have changed quietly. It is no longer a class title of the nobility, and it is no longer a symbol of protecting the country. It has become a tool used by some people to make profits. out of hand.
Knight sports came into being.
The vision was a little blurry, but Maria still saw the blue-purple spear. She raised her shield mechanically to block, but was easily knocked away, and then another huge force struck, and she flew upside down again. out.
"You shouldn't stand up anymore. Although I don't know why your weapon is not damaged, your body has reached its limit."
"Just fall down like this, and never stand up again, and let your ridiculous will be crushed to powder."
ridiculous?
Is it ridiculous?
Maria lay on the ground, listening to Big Mouth Mobu's countdown, which was still full of energy.
What did she compete for, and what did she get to this point?
In order to restore the glory of the declining Linguang family, and to prevent the name of Linguang from dying out in this generation, she is not doing it for vanity, let alone profit.
She just didn't want to waste the efforts of countless ancestors, so that her sister could see the familiar courtyard and the polished family crest one day when she returned to Casimir in a fair manner.
Linguang, the name bears too much, this is her home.
"Cough cough..."
The body began to rebel against the will, and even using the miracles learned from Ashes to heal the body, it was almost at its limit.
Standing up tremblingly, she walked slowly to the weapons and picked them up. Maria raised her sword and pointed it at Titus not far away.
"...at least you deserve credit for your resilience."
With a cold snort, looking at such a stubborn Maria, Titus with his left hand was about to repeat the same trick, but a high-pitched notification sound suddenly sounded in the arena.
Zofia had just rushed into the arena, and before she had time to go to her seat, she heard that annoying voice shouting something.
"Friends in the audience, now, I must urgently interrupt everyone's watching the battle. You have also seen that after being knocked down again and again, you get up again, like the dim light of a candle that has never been extinguished. This has to make us feel sorry for Ma. Liya Linguang applauds, but!" He said heavily, "This kind of competition is too boring, so after discussion, we decided to set a final limit of 10 minutes from now on. The person who can stand on the field is the winner today!"
"Let's fight! In these 10 minutes, can we see a wonderful Jedi counterattack? Or will the left-handed knight continue to suppress terror as usual?"
"Why suddenly..."
Maria supported her body with the sword, and she heard what was said just now, but she didn't understand why the rules were suddenly changed.
"Heh, can't stand it anymore?"
Titus sneered, turned the spear upside down, and pierced the point into the ground.
"Linguang, do you know what this rule means?"
"....what?"
"Those people above can't sit still anymore. Your existence obstructs some people's eyes. This is also a reminder to me."
"Remind me, I will completely defeat you."
Chapter 440 Streamer Maria
"Even a knight as strong as you is controlled by others?"
"...everyone can't help themselves."
Looking at the exhausted Maria, the face under Titus's helmet showed deep disgust. He is Titus Baiyang, a left-handed knight, and a general of the Knights of the Blades.
However, the Knights are controlled by the Knights Association. Knights not recognized by the Knights Association have no military power but no status, so they can only participate in some black games.
The Knights Association, however, is in the hands of the Commercial Union.
They value interests, and under the torrent of capital, they can easily subvert certain things.
Such as the rules of the game, such as the pride of Titus.
"10 minutes is too long, 1 minute is enough."
Titus's spear was stuck upside down on the ground beside him, and he also lifted off the cloak that had been covering half of his body since the beginning of the battle. As the cloak fell to the ground, what appeared before the eyes of the audience was his armor. The incomparably exquisite mechanical structure in the middle, part of them are exposed, full of mechanical industrial beauty.
Titus slammed his right chest with his left hand, as if triggering some kind of switch, his armor began to breathe steam, and layers of machinery extended from the armor, gradually covering his body.
In just ten seconds, the mechanical structure fit onto his body accurately, and with an explosive sound of "嗤——", a burst of white steam erupted from behind him, bringing a steaming heat wave.
"That is..."
Zofia stared at Titus's armor. She had already sensed that something was wrong. Maria's state on the stage was obviously close to the limit, but the game changed the new rules just at this time, 10 minutes?How could Maria last 10 minutes like that? !
And the steam-emanating armor of the left-handed knight made Zofia feel even more flustered.
"...It's Victoria's steam armor, a model I've never seen before."
Linguang appeared next to Zofia at some point, and after a few glances, she had already given the answer.
Victoria's steam armor can be said to be the crystallization of Originium technology, representing a very high level of technology, and the model on the left hand, even the well-informed Linguang couldn't tell what it was.
Maybe Shining will know, but unfortunately she is not here.
"Damn it! How could that left hand have such equipment... The business union, it was definitely given to him by those guys! And this temporary change of the rules..."
"Do they want Maria to die on stage?!"
The matter is already very clear, these things are obvious, and the answer can be obtained after a little thought. The big hand that has been hiding behind the scenes and controlling everything has already extended its claws to Maria.
"No! I'm going to stop this game!"
Zofia took out the saber from her waist, and her left hand, which she hadn't swung for a long time, was not unfamiliar. The feeling of the past came to her heart instantly, and she wanted to jump out of the auditorium and rush directly to the arena to take Maria away.
Even if the left hand does not know good or bad and wants to stop it, you have to ask the whip blade sword in her hand.
Zofia no longer cared about the competition or the rules. For so many years, Maria was like her younger sister. How could she just sit back and watch this child be killed on stage by an adult's dirty conspiracy? ?
But unexpectedly, Zofia's shoulder was held down by someone, and when she looked back, it was Linguang.
"Margaret, what are you doing?"
"Don't go, Zofia."
"What are you talking about?! How could I not go? Do you want me to watch Maria die?!"
Zofia wanted to break free from Linguang's control, but that tender white palm firmly held her in place.
"Do you still remember what Mr. Ashes said?" Lin Guang asked back.
【The key to victory is in the child's own hands】
"Trust her, trust her like you trust me, Maria, she's grown up."
Linguang stood outside the arena, looking at Maria who was already shaking, the sun badge that was strung up by a necklace around Linguang's neck was slowly emitting heat.
The warmth, hot and fierce.

' It's no good, the vision is starting to blur, and the consciousness is gradually going away...
