In addition to the weekly fighting meeting within the school, the annual fighting between schools will also receive more intense attention from the orcs. If the former is a family playing around behind closed doors, the latter is an honor with a sense of competition: not only the honor of the school, but also the honor of individuals. Quite a bright future. For example, Eli's brother Sennuo has a position that cannot be ignored in the army at a young age. After all, in the army of orcs, birth status does not matter at all. The only way to get ahead is It is strength, and the glory brought by strength.
Of course, it has a more important meaning, and it also means that the prizes are more generous. Compared with the prizes of the school's internal martial arts, the rewards of the inter-school martial arts are more expensive and cherished.
According to the plot, the prize for this fighting meeting is cinnabar made from a herb called Pangluo. This kind of cinnabar is very suitable for making healing and detoxification spells, and the protagonist Allen is determined to get it because one of his followers happened to be seriously injured and urgently needed such a spell to heal his injuries.
Although Allen has gradually emerged, he still has not been able to get rid of his low social status. Among his followers, there are no real beasts with good backgrounds. The only good Monroe is mysterious and erratic. It's not easy for Allen to speak casually. What's more unfortunate is that before, because of his arrogance, he had an enmity with an aristocratic sub-beast, and he was struggling under the exclusion of the other party. This martial arts meeting was his only chance to obtain the Pangluo herb cinnabar, so naturally he should not miss it.
However, he didn't know that the jewel in the palm of the Folsom family also attached great importance to this honor. After being slapped in the face by Allen, he couldn't forget it, and began to confront him tit for tat and deliberately retaliated, which brought him more troubles.
On the day of the martial arts meeting, Sui Yuan naturally went with his group of followers, Leonard was also among them, but his status was detached.
Because of his arrogance and identity, Sui Yuan and his followers naturally wouldn't participate in any chaos like commoner orcs. In the early stage, they just leisurely watched from the sidelines, waiting for the commoners to choose a winner. Then compete with it.
Although there are only real beasts on the field in the martial arts meeting, it also represents the strength of the sub-beasts behind the real beasts. A powerful real beast will only choose a sub-beast with high talent, and behind the ability of a real beast is the accumulated effect of the sub-beast's spells. To put it bluntly, the sub-beasts worked hard to cultivate real beasts with power and spells, in order to make a big splash on such occasions.
At the martial arts meeting, the only one who could attract Sui Yuan's attention was Alan. Monroe was always by his side, but he didn't play. Naturally, the orcs who knew a little about his strength and status didn't dare to say anything about it. On the field for him was a real civilian beast with very good strength, apparently carefully trained by Allen.
Unsurprisingly, Allen's followers were very upbeat and got further qualifications to participate, and Sui Yuan and his followers finally had a chance to appear on the stage.
With a light cough, Sui Yuan turned his head and looked at Leonard who had a cold expression but kept hooking his fingers through the cover of his clothes, and said with a smile, "Are you going to play?"
Leonard glanced at him, indifferent, Sui Yuan shrugged his shoulders, completely unconcerned—even afraid that the other party would change his mind if he asked one more question, he immediately turned his head to look at Mo Ya: "Mo Ya, why don't you go for me? "
"Of course, I'm happy to help you." Moya's eyes lit up, he took Sui Yuan's right hand that was half leaning on Leonard's body, lowered his head and kissed his fingertips, then turned and walked into the arena.
Sui Yuan's happy smiling expression stagnated, even a bit distorted, and he felt that Leonard's hand that moved to his waist at some point was about to cut him off!
"That's right! Let him be so pissed off for a while!" 5237 commented triumphantly, full of breathless complacency.
"What should I do! The unlucky one is me, okay! My waist must be blue!" Sui Yuan wanted to cry without tears, and struggled without trace while holding a sweet and proud smile, wishing he could scratch Leonard's paw, feeling I'm about to get a good score!
5237 chattered for a moment: "...Okay, at worst, you can show him your waist when there is no one around, and ask him to exchange some bruising ointment for you to apply, rub it and you'll be fine!"
The corner of Sui Yuan's mouth twitched slightly: "Are you sure you're not hurting me?"
5237 choked up for a moment, and decided it would be better not to answer the call.
According to the customs of this world, except for a partner, no real beast has the right to prevent other real beasts from showing affection or even intimacy with their sub-beasts, so after enjoying the fun of Sui Yuan chasing after him for a few days, Leonard started It's hard.
Finding that "Eli"'s temper is getting more and more easy-going, and even "losing his temper" is more like being coquettish. The real beasts gradually became bolder, and their gestures around Sui Yuan became more explicit, and they even didn't shy away from it at all. Whether Leonard is present. Due to the fact that the characters couldn't fight the real beasts because of this, and seeing Sui Yuan's half-ignorant and half-acting smile at these courtesies, Leonard was almost going crazy, but he could only use These small private actions are used to express his dissatisfaction, and every time he wants to go further, Sui Yuan will slid away without hesitation. Obviously, he still has lingering fears about the last world... maybe the things he did in the last world.
"...It hurts..." Sui Yuan couldn't bear it anymore, and finally hummed softly. Leonard let go of his hand reflexively, and saw the other party jump up from him immediately, ran to the railing, and grabbed the railing with one hand, pretending to be hurt. Looking down at the situation in the martial arts arena with interest, the other hand was put on the waist and rubbed without any trace, and even the tail seemed to hang down a little weakly.
Leonard moved his fingers, resisting the urge to pull the tail into his hands and play with it. On the surface, it was as cold as ice, but in fact, he didn't know where his mind had wandered to.
And at this time, Sui Yuan finally saw Monroe, who had been lazily sitting next to Alan, move, and stood up to replace the real beast that had almost performed supernormally.
In the original book, if Monroe hadn't played at this moment, with Moya's strength, the possibility of winning the final prize was not 100% but at least 70% to 80%. Unfortunately, Monroe made a mess, and Eli Leonard, the strongest fighter on this side, refused to play, and finally Eli lost to Allen.
Such a result is absolutely unacceptable to Eli, who has always been arrogant - he can allow himself to lose to the sub-beasts of the same class, but he absolutely looks down on the statusless civilians like Allen! Not to mention, he also added fuel to the fire and discovered that Leonard had also become somewhat interested in Allen because of Monroe. You must know that Monroe was definitely as proud as he was, and he was willing to listen to Allen. Lun's dispatch must mean that there is something special about this Allen.
Monroe's appearance caused an uproar around him. He is used to being undisciplined and never likes to "compete for the wind" and show off himself on such occasions, so no one thought that he would suddenly show up, and he was also a representative of a little-known Civilian sub-beast!
Just when Sui Yuan watched all the actors get ready and the plot was staged step by step with bright eyes, Monroe on the field suddenly raised his head and looked in his direction, his slightly raised lips showed a bit of ambiguity, and even The fluffy silver tail shook involuntarily, just like all real beasts showing off their strength to sub-beasts, the whole body was filled with the breath of "Look at me! Choose me! I'm the best!".
Sui Yuan was taken aback for a moment, before he understood what the other party meant, he heard Leonard stand up abruptly behind him, and walked down the arena without paying attention to his slow-moving stop.
If Monroe's appearance just made the orcs a little surprised and curious, Leonard's appearance obviously turned this emotion into surprise and uncertainty.
Moya frowned slightly, and looked suspiciously at Leonard who was walking beside him, but Leonard ignored his gaze, looked directly at Monroe, raised his hand and patted Moya's shoulder, and pointed at him casually. Foreigner: "You go down, I'll come."
Moya's face suddenly turned ugly. Leonard's actions were undoubtedly a denial of his strength, and no proud orc could bear it. However, the next sentence made Moya gritted his teeth and retreated even though he was not reconciled: "You can't beat Monroe, and there is no way to bring victory to Eli. He will not allow himself to be humiliated by a commoner beast In hand, even if the follower of the sub-beast is Monroe."
Moya took a deep breath, and finally chose the latter between his own dignity and Sui Yuan's glory. His complexion was rare, and he took a step back, and his usually gentle voice also wore a bit of coldness and anger: "I hope you will not break your promise and bring victory to Eli."
After all, he turned around and walked off the field quickly, giving up his position to Leonard.
Leonard moved his body a little, and stood directly in front of Monroe. Although one corner of his mouth was smiling and the other was indifferent, everyone could feel the tense atmosphere contained in it. The aura of the two was so strong that it made the other real beasts around them look as small as gravel. Now, everyone can see that the next thing is just a fight between Leonard and Monroe , and the rest are just foils.
"I thought you wouldn't come up." Monroe smiled jokingly, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"How could I let you be so good at the front?" Leonard replied softly, "You want to show off to my sub-beast, you are still a little too early."
Monroe was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't believe that these words came from Leonard's mouth, but instead, he looked a bit like him? Immediately, Monroe was a little eager to try as if smelling the same kind of smell, and felt that this Leonard was not as boring as the legend.
"Your sub-beast? Who?" Monroe raised his eyebrows. He knew what the other party was talking about, but he pretended to be puzzled. Is it Allen?"
"Don't think that I don't know who you were looking at just now." Leonard was not irritated at all, but calm and calm, but he did not lose the wind in the slightest.
The dialogue between the two was clear to the authorities and fascinated by the bystanders. Although they heard it clearly, the real beasts who had no idea what was going on looked at each other, but it was not the time to gossip at all. It's an itchy heart and lungs.
However, they still seriously remembered the sub-beast named "Alan". In any case, what Monroe and Leonard said must have something to do with him.
—If Leonard knew what the real beasts in the corner were thinking, he would definitely pay tribute to their well-developed limbs and simple minds...
On the fighting arena, the real beasts were ready to go, but when Moya returned to the viewing platform, he found that Sui Yuan, who should have been overjoyed because of Leonard's initiative to enter the field, had a distorted expression, clutching the fingers of the railing. The joints were slightly white, and it looked as if he was cursing something with resentment.
"... Don't worry, Leonard is already at the eighth level of combat power. Even Monroe, there is no way to get any benefits from him." Moya made the only possible guess without authorization, and Moya held back his disappointment and smiled. said comfortingly.
"... I'm not worried at all." Sui Yuan turned his head to look at him, forced a smile, but the words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, which made Mo Ya feel chills.
Following Sui Yuan's line of sight, Mo Ya's gaze also turned to Monroe and Leonard in the fighting arena, and then moved to the other side to watch the Asian beast Allen on the field nervously and worriedly, narrowing his eyes slightly Eye.
Moya is undoubtedly smart, unlike other real beasts who only like to use their hands instead of their brains. Moreover, he loves Sui Yuan, so he will naturally put 120,000 efforts on him. At this moment, Sui Yuan's abnormal reaction made him pay special attention, Mo Ya always felt that he seemed to catch something, but it was a little vague.
When the onlookers and participants were all suspicious, the battle began, but to everyone's surprise, Leonard and Monroe, who were clearly facing each other, did not immediately regard each other as opponents, but seemed to have a tacit understanding Usually both teamed up and strangled the rest of the participating orcs.
The real beasts on the field and the sub-beasts who are closely related to them outside the field are like a group of grass mud horses galloping past, stunned and can only hate these two people for their cunning and insidiousness! They regard each other as opponents, but they absolutely do not allow the other real beasts to take advantage of their inattention and take advantage of them, so they naturally chose to clear the field first, and then fight among themselves.
The real beasts who were originally inferior to them retreated one after another, and in an instant there were almost only two figures left on the fighting arena. Then, two low roars of wild beasts resounded throughout the arena. The silver giant wolf and the black cheetah quickly fought together, while the remaining real beasts who hadn't left the field but were almost dying fell into further chaos. Dire situation.
Who said that a real beast just pounces on it and bites wildly without thinking? Monroe and Leonard simply made the most of the existing crude "props". The rest of the real beasts are like their shields and their sharp blades, and they can't help but move according to their arrangements. They have never seen such a high level—or the orcs who have no lower limit for martial arts are almost unstoppable. shocked! It's like a door to a new world is slowly opening in front of them...
——It symbolizes bravery and courageous battles. It turns out that you can be so shameless and do everything you can...
Compared with the number one person whose IQ is far ahead among the orcs, Monroe is still a bit weaker when facing Leonard, not to mention, if it comes to real strength, he has already been "ripened" by Sui Yuan. Leonard, who climbed up to the eighth level of combat power, is also a sure win over Monroe, who is at the seventh level of combat power.
Under the short-lived tie, Monroe quickly showed signs of decline. His hind leg was bitten by Leonard, and his waist was severely whipped by his whip-like tail. He rolled to the sidelines in embarrassment. Stand strong.
Looking at the contemptuous golden eyes of the black panther, Monroe had never experienced such a situation where his self-esteem was easily trampled under by others. He let out a low growl, wanting to pounce on him in a feverish manner, but tried his best to stop himself and keep himself calm.
Monroe knew that even if he tried his best, it was impossible for him to defeat Leonard. The opponent seemed to be more cunning and sophisticated in strategy than him, and his combat power was also higher than his. It's just letting yourself get hurt in vain, it's better to take a step back temporarily and heal the injury quickly, so as to have a chance to catch up with him.
"...is he right?" Thinking of this, Monroe's eyes brightened, and his voice suppressed excitement and fanaticism, "I know your strength, you were on par with me not long ago, but in a short period of time Going one step further—it must be because of him, right!"
Leonard narrowed his eyes slightly and did not answer, but this attitude was equivalent to acquiescence in Monroe's eyes.
"You suddenly changed your attitude towards him because you suddenly discovered that his strength is not just the eighth level of perception, right!" Monroe trembled slightly. The sub-beast is even more inevitable - he absolutely does not want to be trampled under by any real beast like this, and he will never stand up for the rest of his life, even... Even if Eli has a deep love for Leonard, he can't surpass Leonard The treatment should at least be equal to be fair!
Leonard is just a guardian, not even a partner. If he had been more proactive and lowered his posture, the sub-beast would not have rejected him, would it
Leonard, who clearly guessed what Monroe was thinking right now, suddenly became murderous. Even though he knew that the possibility of Sui Yuan developing feelings for the natives was extremely low, he absolutely couldn't let anyone else approach him: "I changed my attitude, not for that reason."
"Hmph, do you think I will believe it? Believe you because I like him? I am also a real beast, so I naturally know what a real beast thinks, so I won't believe in love like a subbeast. You should keep such words Go lie to that little idiot!" Monroe snorted, feeling the murderous intent of the other party, he did not show any weakness, but he did not intend to continue to resist at all, and quickly jumped out of the battle circle, declaring his withdrawal.
Leonard flicked his tail, watched Monroe shake his hair after picking out the battle circle, and transformed back into a human form, while Allen ran over worriedly, used a spell to help him heal, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Monroe raised his hand and rejected Alan's treatment, with a polite look of alienation, then said something with a smile, and turned to walk towards the exclusive therapist of the Martial Arts Association.
Allen froze for a moment, obviously feeling the change in the other party's attitude but was at a loss. He didn't have the cheek to catch up, but just stood there silently.
Leonard changed back into a human form, and secretly put on the agenda to kill Monroe without a trace. This guy has obviously made up his mind based on the situation, and his mobility also makes Leonard a little frightened.
— In this world, this guy's threat is obviously MAX.
There is no doubt that Leonard won the championship. When he walked towards Sui Yuan with the cinnabar made from the herb Pangluo, he was not surprised to see him running over with a bright smile, jumping and jumping. slammed into his arms hard.
Leonard stood still, Sui Yuan's small body couldn't do him any harm at all, he just maintained a calm expression and wrapped his arms around his waist to prevent the Sui Yuan hanging around his neck from falling to the ground .
"You! This! Damn! Bastard!" Closely close to Leonard's ear, Sui Yuan gritted his teeth and said, almost crying, "You won back such an important item as the cinnabar of Pangluo herb. , what do you want me to do! What! Do it!"
"That's your problem, my dear." Leonard's face finally revealed a hint of a smile, and he said an unusually irresponsible answer in a soft and low voice.
Sui Yuan: "... Pig teammate QAQ"
Leonard: "Thank you for the compliment."
Seeing that the other party showed no repentance, Sui Yuan became angry for a moment, opened his mouth and bit Leonard's neck viciously, and rubbed it subconsciously.
Leonard paused for a moment, then he raised his hand and rubbed Sui Yuan's head helplessly, and said indulgently, "Why do you still treat yourself like a dog? Biting people at every turn, you should change this habit."
Sui Yuan: "..."
5237: "...I think, he's right..."
Sui Yuan: "Hundan! Don't go along with it casually!"
"It seems that the relationship between Leonard and Eli is indeed very good, unlike the outside legends..." Allen's friend leaned into his ear and whispered in surprise.
Allen responded somewhat absent-mindedly, looking straight at the prize in Leonard's hand that was too late to hand over to Eli with worried eyes, racking his brains to think about what to do.
Even so, he had to admit that the two seemed to be quite right... Not only because Eli was prettier than a girl, so it didn't violate harmony at all to hug a man, but also because the two The aura between people can hardly penetrate the third person.
On the other side, Monroe also watched this scene, but he didn't have the surprise or emotion of the other orcs at all—after this battle, he fully understood what kind of guy Leonard is. Although he looks upright, strict and indifferent on the outside, he is actually It's insidious and cunning that even he himself can't match. Presumably, he is very good at acting, right
