"Hybrid swords, also known as hand-and-half swords, hybrid swords, mixed swords, you can call them whatever you want. They are between long swords and armed swords. They weigh about 1.3 kilograms. They can be used with one hand, and some moderately fit Modesas can even use them with two hands. But to be honest, it doesn't make much sense in actual combat. For the countries on the west coast of 30 or [-] years ago, the Celtic Magic Legion holding black hybrid swords existed like a nightmare, and only the Hanji Allies could compete with them."

"Swift Sword, I like the blade of this sword very much. But in fact, Swift Sword can be regarded as a general term for a class of swords. Broadly speaking, small swords born later than Swift Sword can be called Swift Sword, and some longer than long swords can also be called Swift Sword. For example, this one is 1.3 meters long and weighs 1.2 kilograms. It is not considered a light sword."

"Side sword, the shape of this sword is very beautiful, men in the age of sailing have one."

"To be honest, the strength of student Eve surprised me a little. This giant sword made by Kiran weighs 4.5 kilograms, is 1.9 meters long, and has a guard length of 35 centimeters. It has a composite hilt, only the tip of the sword is edged, and there is no blocking hook on the front. It can also be regarded as a small guard. The giant sword is a relatively special weapon. Although it is in the shape of a sword, it is closer to a long-handled weapon in use."

Eve could barely stand the big sword on the ground while holding the hilt. She held it with both hands and swung it twice, causing the surrounding students to exclaim.

Chongge watched her wielding the giant sword. He was also surprised, but also found it interesting. He couldn't help smiling. Although his tone was kind when he spoke, his expression was always serious. This was the first time he smiled since this class.

"Student Eve, I guess you must have learned swordsmanship." He said.

"Yes, I'm better at using half-handed swords." Eve replied.

"That's just right." Chongge nodded, and said to other students: "Whoever of you is confident in yourself, you can come and discuss with this classmate Eve. There is still some time before class is over, and I also know that you are right This little girl who came over from the School of Philosophy to learn swordsmanship has doubts, and now is the time to answer. If you want to learn from her, please raise your hand!"

Half of the nineteen students raised their hands, including Dicken and Lin Xin.

"Student Eve, the choice is up to you," Chongge said.

Among the ten people who raised their hands, there were even two female classmates.

Lin Xin definitely can't choose, and she is not good at dealing with strangers, so she can only choose Di Geng.

Eve pointed to the young man squatting in the front row.

Di Geng stood up very proudly, waved to the others, and patted Lin Xin on the shoulder beside him, then walked up to Eve and Chongge, and said to everyone, "Hello everyone, my name is Di Gen Dib, from County Yard, to tell you the truth, Eve and I have known each other for a long time, so she chose me just now, but there is one thing I want to explain in advance, she chose me because she didn't want to hurt Wei Wei Classmates who have been introduced to each other, not because I will show mercy to her."

This guy can talk.Eve looked at him with her arms around her shoulders.After Di Geng finished speaking, he turned around and said to Eve, "You heard it too, don't blame me if you get beaten up and cried for a while, it was you who chose me by name." He still had a playful smile when he spoke.

"That depends on your ability." Eve imitated his tone and said, "Do you know why I chose you instead of Lin Xin? That's because I might not be able to beat him. You are right about one thing, I really don't want to hurt my classmates."

"Both of you seem to have fighting spirit." With a slight smile on the corner of Chongge's mouth, he handed the two long swords for training to them, and said, "Come on, let everyone see your abilities."

Di Geng and Eve held their swords and looked at each other. At this moment, Di Geng looked serious, but Eve was a little surprised. She didn't know if the other party was just pretending or really valued this exchange.

In this sparring session, neither of them was wearing protective equipment. In the eyes of others, this contest seemed a bit exciting, especially when one of them was still wearing a skirt.

Di Gen made a move first, he swung his sword, and aimed at Eve's left shoulder, and Eve easily blocked the sudden move.The time between the two of them was very short and the speed was very fast. Everyone only heard the sound of clang, and the two swords touched together and quickly separated.Everyone's expressions were no longer as relaxed as before, including Chongge - from the feeling of this blow, they could all feel that the level of swordsmanship of both of them was not simple.

"I didn't expect you would really know it." Eve pretended to smile relaxedly, but her heart became more cautious because of the blow just now, and she said, "Sneak attack is not a good thing."

"What's a sneak attack?" Di Geng was also laughing. The expressions of the two were so similar at this time. He moved his shoulders, and unpreparedly waved a slap, and said, "Is that counted?"

Eve turned sideways, narrowly avoiding it.

"In the end, you are still a brat, learn from Lin Xin. Last time we fought, it took a long time just to test each other."

"Yeah, when you're done testing, the battle might be over on our side." Di Geng swung his sword again, and this time Eve took the move directly and pushed back the opponent's sword.

"So your strength is so weak, try breaking your wrist another day?" Eve teased, raising her eyebrows.

"Just your little arm, just wait."

Di Geng was very disdainful of her provocation.

The two fought each other while exchanging moves. This scene made everyone sweat on their foreheads. They still had the energy to talk during such a high-intensity confrontation. Could it be that the two colluded to perform a stage play?But apparently not, especially after Eve's first counterattack.Eve is very good at changing moves. This is because she had to develop flexible methods due to her lack of strength in the early years. Now that her strength is good, these skills have not been lost. She swung her long sword and pointed at Di Geng The top of the head slashed down vertically, and Di Geng reacted very quickly. He raised his hand and put the blade of the sword across the top of his head, blocking the blow. Then, Eve took a step diagonally, turned his arm, and made the sword The tip drew a half circle against the opponent's sword spine, crossed the blockade, and appeared on the opponent's chest.

Di Geng was anxious. Seeing the opponent's sword point slanting down towards his abdomen, he pouted his buttocks in a very funny posture and avoided the blow.

Eve couldn't help but burst out laughing seeing his stretched face and staring eyes struggling.

[43] The dignity of the prodigal son

The sparring is still going on, but the two sides have stopped for a while.

Eve is not a person who likes to talk nonsense, but after getting to know Di Geng, she gradually began to be unable to restrain herself, and exchanged a few words with the other party from time to time in order to show off her quick tongue.

And when the two of them were silent, the frequency of their fights became faster and faster. Di Geng's swordsmanship was not bad. Compared with Lin Xin's impeccable defense and unmoving stability like a mountain, he was more inclined to use fast-paced attacks to make the opponent exhausted.

On the other hand, Eve seldom attacks, but every attack and defense switch is just right, directly attacking the opponent's vital points.

After five or six minutes of attacking and blocking, counterattacking and counterattacking, Chongge standing aside suddenly said, "Eve gets a point for the effective part."

Di Geng stopped his attack helplessly, and patted his right shoulder. He could feel it just now. When he was blocking, the opponent's sword tip hit his shoulder at a tricky angle.Eve also used this trick when fighting Lin Xin before, but the opponent was defended at that time.

"Do you want to continue?" Eve smiled, and her voice was a little breathless. Obviously, the high-frequency confrontation just now was not as easy as it seemed.

"Continue." Di Geng was no longer in the mood to gossip, and after Eve scored this time, he became more cautious in his moves.

Eve's physical strength is slightly weaker than Di Geng's, but the other party has obviously noticed this a long time ago, or it was his idea from the beginning.Sure enough, a few minutes later, Di Geng quickly hit the back of Eve's sword-holding hand. Eve thought the blow would be painful, so she subconsciously let go of her hand, but the pain as imagined did not Appear.

"One point for Dee."

Di Geng coughed lightly, and said with some pride: "I was afraid of hurting you just now, so I didn't try my best, but this kind of worry seems unnecessary."

"Indeed." Chongge said: "The training swords in the training center are all specially made with protective patterns, so there is no need to equip them with additional protective measures."

The two put on a posture again, but they heard Chongge say again: "There is one thing I want to mention, every class you take has class performance scores. For the evaluation of "bad", the basic score is 80 points, that is, "good", plus points for good performance, and deducted points for poor performance, "good" for 50 points and below, and "poor" for 30 points and below. Yi Classmates Fu and Classmate Di Geng, you did not question the safety measures before the competition, so in today's class performance scores, each of you will deduct 50 points."

Eve and Di Geng turned their heads together, and they both stared at Chongge with wide eyes in disbelief.

"However, you didn't explain it beforehand..." Di Geng wanted to defend himself, but was interrupted by the other party: "Okay, student Di Geng, I didn't explain it, but it doesn't mean you can ignore it—— It is true that if you are injured in my swordsmanship class, I will face accountability and punishment, that is my business; but your body is your own, and you will always bear the primary responsibility for your own life! "Chongge's expression was suddenly serious, and he continued: "You think that the teacher is reliable, the peak is reliable, and the teammates are reliable-but they are all human beings, and human beings will inevitably make mistakes. How can we expect them to think about everything every time? Are you really going to give your life to someone else? Why do we always emphasize safety, safety, safety, is it implying that it is safe now? No, exactly On the contrary, it shows that there are dangers hidden in the operation that are difficult to detect and cannot be ignored. This truth is actually very simple, isn’t it?”

Chongge's eyes swept over the students, and everyone nodded in haste.

"Okay, you continue." Chongge turned his head and said to the two: "Now there are 5 minutes left, continue to fight, the winner will get - 100 points."

The faces of the two men were stunned, and they raised their weapons at the same time.

"Di Geng, we are tied now. If no one makes mistakes like this, and the 100 points are divided into two equal parts, we will all get 'good' grades by the end of class, otherwise someone will get a 'bad' grade. Think about it, this is the first class." Eve advised him.

"You look like you, but you don't mean to muddle along at all." Di Geng raised his sword across his chest, "Would you like to surprise me?"

"It's you who have been holding the sword, how can you let me rest assured?" Eve took a step forward.

"Since you don't believe me, then let each one rely on his own ability."

Di Geng took the lead in swinging a blow, but was successfully blocked by Eve and counterattacked. Di Geng turned sideways, deflected the opponent's attack with the tip of his sword, and made a stab. The two of them came and went for a while , the fighting rhythm is more intense and chaotic than the first half.

Suddenly, Digger lowered his body to avoid Eve's left and right slashes, and pressed his feet firmly to Eve's chest, giving Eve a shoulder bump with a very standard movement, and before she stabilized When he was in the body, he took advantage of the victory and pursued, hitting one side of her forehead with the pommel.

A circle of faint water patterns slowly swayed away from the attack point, removing the force of the blow. Di Geng didn't use too much force in the shoulder collision, and Eve didn't suffer any damage, but she was still dizzy from Di Geng's flowing moves.

"Beautiful, very good idea." Chongge nodded, "However, today we are fighting without armor swordsmanship, not canned man vs. canned man, but since I didn't explain in advance, this is my negligence, so this time - Di will score one point. Eve needs to work harder, there are still 2 minutes."

Eve was very anxious at this time, her physical strength was declining, but the opponent did not show any obvious decline, so it seemed that victory was hopeless.But no matter what, you must persist until the end of the sparring time. Eve shook her teeth and started fighting with the opponent again.

At this time, the atmosphere in the arena seemed a bit depressed. The crowd did not feel relaxed because of the almost settled ending, but was very nervous, as if they were expecting a miracle.

As the time decreased bit by bit, Eve's heart gradually sank. She waved the sword in her hand mechanically, as if Di Geng opposite was just a wooden stake for hitting during morning exercises.

"Effective parts, Eve will score one point!" Suddenly, Chongge's words woke up the sleeping crowd. Eve opened her mouth, not knowing what happened, and Di Geng on the opposite side also confronted her with the same surprised expression. see.

"The time is almost up. In the next class, I will make a brief comment on the practice process of these two students. I also welcome all students to actively discuss after class. The two students, Eve and Di Geng, performed very well. The result of the fight is - a tie, each will be rewarded with 50 points, and considering the positive attitude shown by the two in this fight, each will be rewarded with 20 points, but because classmate Eve is late today, So these 20 points will still be deducted after all, that is to say, Di Geng 100 points, Eve 80 points... Well, today's class is here. Before I leave, I still want to emphasize one sentence: You must Stay safe, stay safe, stay safe—we accept casualties, but not flukes. Disband!"

At this time, it was close to the meal time. The students cheered and left in twos and threes. Di Geng cut his hair and walked towards Lin Xin who was waiting, and Eve hurriedly followed.

"You turned on the water just now, didn't you?" Eve was behind him, eager to know the answer. There were also students around who looked towards this side, as if they also had doubts about the result of this competition.

"Don't think too much, I made a mistake. I lost my strength for a while and hit you in the arm with the sword. I have to say, your strength is really strong. If you let go for a while, you will take advantage of the loophole." Di Geng spoke in a calm voice, as if the quarrel between the two had never happened.

"But..." Eve still had doubts, but when she saw Di Geng's meaningful gaze, she stopped asking.

"Let's go eat, the three of us." Di Geng put his hands on Lin Xin's shoulders and smiled at Eve. Since Lin Xin was too tall, it was a bit laborious for him to do this.

"Okay." Eve took a breath and calmed down her emotions.

The big dining room of the training center was the main dining room at the beginning of the establishment of Benlong Castle. Its interior is spacious and bright. The dinner prepared for the new students at the beginning of the school year was also held here. Since there were seven batches of freshmen, the dinner party was held here for seven consecutive days. On the seventh day, the number of people having the dinner party had reached 200, which was really extremely lively.Eve came here for the first time today. Although the meals here are very rich, she didn't focus on eating today, but kept looking at Di Geng with a searching look.

Eve is very grateful to Di Gen, no matter what he did just now.

"Why don't you have any appetite today?" Di Geng looked at the small portion of food on her dinner plate, and also felt the abnormality of the girl at this time.

"I'm sitting here, and many people have already seen it. It's better to be normal." Eve pointed to the uniform on her body.

"But the problem is that you look very abnormal now." Di Geng saw her distraught look, and asked, "Why, are you still thinking about what happened just now?"

"I know how hard I swing my sword."

"Indeed." Di Geng nodded, picked up the bowl and took a sip of vegetable soup.

"You all gave way to me during the competition. Lin Xin did the same last time. He deliberately didn't use all his strength. When I think of this, I feel more uncomfortable than losing." Eve sighed while rolling up the macaroni on the plate with a fork.Hearing her words, Lin Xin just looked up at her, but soon started to eat again in suspense.

"But if I don't let you, I will also feel very uncomfortable." Di Geng lowered his head halfway, his eyes fell on the tableware he had just put down, and said, "I never think that it is a kind of way to put water in the process of fighting." Respect your opponent's behavior, but today is different, no matter who sees your expression at that time, I am afraid they will want to stop, don't you think so, Lin Xin?"

Lin Xin raised his head, it seemed that he was really thinking seriously, and when he just opened his mouth to speak, Di Geng patted the back of his hand, put a piece of beef on his plate into his dinner plate, and said: "It's hard to choose, isn't it? I think so too, Eve... It can be said that you have one of the biggest regrets in your life - that is, this face is yours, and you can't see it all the time , you can’t see how those eyes speak to you, and how irresistible you are when you’re disappointed and lonely.”

And the persistence and hard work that can only be felt from the depths of her eyes when you look at her, this is even more moving.But Di Geng didn't say these thoughts.

When Eve heard him commenting on herself in this way, her face turned red at first, and then turned pale, and she was a little at a loss in her behavior. She didn't think too much, but felt that hearing Di Geng describe herself like this, as if her behavior at that time was embarrassing?

"I grew up like this, and I didn't want to." Eve muttered to herself.

"Of course I don't mean that." After Di Geng finished speaking, he paused for a long time, and then said again: "I'm actually angry with myself. Sometimes the human body acts against its own will. What you want in your heart is not consistent with what you actually show. Have you ever experienced this?"

Eve didn't know what he wanted to say, but she nodded anyway.

"People are like this. They want to be decent all the time, but they don't even understand what they do impulsively. Eve, this doesn't look like my style, does it?"

"You do things as you please, and you don't have any style. No matter what you do, I'm not surprised."

"That's right."——I said so much as if I was covering up something——Di Geng smiled, and said again: "I'm not young, and maybe I won't get any better in this life, and I've already lost the qualification to climb to the top."

Eve thinks Di Geng likes to be emotional today?Or is he using the topic to express something?

"You're only under 30 years old, so why worry?" Eve said—she did have the qualifications to say this, "Your family background is not bad, and your starting point is much higher than others, and others can't get in even if they sharpen their heads." You are also here at the Knight Academy, why don’t you hurry up and do what you want to do?”

When Di Geng heard what she said, he couldn't help laughing twice, which made Eve a little confused.

"It doesn't mean anything, I just think that today's women are more 'practical' than men, and they always like to plan everything clearly. Eve, I feel ashamed of myself when I look at you. In fact, I don't have any pursuits. I used to like hunting in the mountains and fishing in the lake. It's best to be an idler in the mountains, but as soon as I come out of the barren mountains and walk into the crowd, I will immediately look like a lunatic, watching my sanity slowly evaporate. I used to be in school. Fighting fiercely with others for a woman, hurting several young masters, and quarreling with the school director during mediation, and finally getting my wish and being expelled from the school. So, I am not suitable to stay in a too complicated environment, because a person is always affected by the environment."

"Do you still have this kind of experience?" Eve suddenly became interested, "Can you tell me more about it?"

"There's nothing to say." Di Geng raised his head, and when he saw Eve's expectant look, he changed his mind, "Forget it, it's no big deal, you can do stupid things in the past, you can do them in the future See, it was like this..."

Di added more details about his past experience. There were people coming and going in the big restaurant, and the laughter of the three people from time to time was buried in the surrounding noise.

And as time goes by, Eve, who is frustrated everywhere, seems to be gradually ushering in a turning point.

[44] Lonely Paradise

The city is like a city made of metal and precious stones. The dark gold and bright silver sections are intertwined to pave everything that exists on the surface.Huge trains are speeding through the air, whistling through the gaps between the buildings like a needle thread; countless silvery birds are shining like mirrors, passing through the city in groups with the roar; the streets extending in all directions are shaped like beetles The four-wheeled carts here are unhindered, and there is neither horse manure nor dust on the road; the pedestrians who come and go here are all nobles in bright and gorgeous clothes.

Harvey was walking aimlessly in this mysterious city in the New World, and he had already thrown the coat soaked in dragon feces on the way.Now, he only wore a leather vest on his upper body, exposing two strong arms.Without Si Mixue by his side, the beard on his face grew a black stubble within a few days, combined with the hair that had not been cleaned for many days, the whole person looked sloppy.

People on the street are next to each other, quite lively.As he moved forward, exclamations and ridicules sounded from the crowd from time to time. These strange sounds interrupted Hawein's meditation. He stopped, as if he had just woken up from a dream, and raised his head , looking at the pedestrians who were watching him with some surprise.

All of those present were women, all of them.Some of them wore gorgeous dresses with fluffy curly hair; some wore bright colored dresses and playful top hats; Characteristic but not difficult to distinguish their true gender...

They all gathered around Hawein, all showing surprised and curious smiles. The gazes of these people made him very uncomfortable, and there was not much malice in them, but in terms of their behavior, they did not seem to be a polite way of treating people—these gazes gave people the feeling that they were looking at a pet puppy with a beautifully trimmed fur, wanting to tease it, but afraid of being bitten on their fingers.

A gorgeously dressed middle-aged woman came out of the crowd, laughed and stuffed an orange into his arms, and then ran back, and everyone around her laughed because of her actions.

"Excuse me—ladies, do you know a person named 'Yyate'? I need to find her very urgently." He squeezed out a forced smile, still confused about the situation, he Bewildered by the crowd.

When all the women heard him speak, they all showed surprise and talked a lot, but no one was willing to answer him.Because of this, Harvey was still carrying a copper coin of the preacher. It is expected that these people should be able to understand his own words.

Someone seemed to break in from the periphery, and the commotion spread from far to near.Two women in golden armor separated from the crowd and walked up to Harvein.They were holding a strange weapon in their hands, and they wore metal masks that covered the nose. The style of the armor highlighted the female features. Although they had a graceful figure, they were menacing along the way.

"Alig, where is your master?" a woman asked him.

"What master?" Harvey subconsciously took a step back when he sensed that something was wrong.

"Alig, if you can't explain your identity and serial number, then we can only detain you until we verify your identity or wait for your responsible person to pay a fine and ransom. What else do you have to say? ?”

"No, you misunderstood me. I'm not a local. If you don't want me to stay here, I can leave now." Harvey raised his hands to show his sincerity.

"If it is true as you said, then we will let you out in the end, but before that, we need to temporarily detain you here until it is confirmed that you are not Alig who fled. We must ensure that the property and interests of citizens are not protected. We can only let you go if there is a violation, and of course, if you suffer losses during this period, we will also make active compensation according to the situation."

"I don't have time to spend here now." Harvey took two steps back again.

"Please cooperate, this is for your sake." The two women raised their weapons.

With a bang, an orange hit the speaker's head, the juice splashed, and there were exclamations from around.Harvey turned around, rudely pushed away the women blocking the way in front of him, and fled to the rear.

The two law enforcement officers also reacted, and chased Harvey in the direction where Harvey was escaping. One of them pressed the switch on the lower edge of the mask, and immediately heard the broadcast over the broad street: "A Ligue dangerous element appeared on Southwest 46th, and the nearby police force is requested for support. Citizens in Southwest [-]th, please evacuate in an orderly manner according to the ground signs, and pay attention to safety."

The warnings on the radio kept repeating. The originally black ground was flashing evacuation signs pointing to different directions. Pedestrians were hiding or leaving the place immediately. After a while, the street was empty. .Harvey ran very fast, but more and more law enforcement officers appeared beside him, all of them were slim figures in golden armor.These people seemed to have extraordinary skills, even with Harvein's strength, he couldn't get rid of them.

Suddenly, a step suddenly appeared on the flat road under Harvey's feet, almost tripping him.He took a big step with his hind legs, stepped on the protruding steps and jumped forward, but then, another high black wall rose from the ground, blocking his way.Harvey raised his right hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand. He swung the sword and slashed at the wall, but found that his hard blow didn't cut it in two.The black wall rose higher and wider, as if it wanted to keep him here. He wanted to turn around, but new barriers appeared around him, obviously trying to trap him inside.Harvey didn't have much time to think, his body turned into a puff of green smoke, climbed up against the wall, and successfully climbed over the obstacle.Although it didn't take too long, the law enforcers had already caught up.The streets in the city have changed beyond recognition at this time, countless black walls criss-crossing, rapidly growing from the surface of each street, interweaving and changing, like a maze, seeming to block all of Harvey's escape routes.

Harvey moved his lips, chanting spells while running, and the blade in his hand slowly turned red under the influence of magic.He moved between the walls, until the martial skill was fully activated, and then he slashed out with a sword.A red light flashed past, the sound was like thunder, and the force was like a broken bamboo, all the blockages were completely melted away.
