Chapter 228: Cheating
bite!
puff!
However, Sadie still underestimated Bertram's fighting skills. When Sadie swung the sword, Bertram reacted immediately, turned around quickly and blocked the sword in front of himself.
With a ding sound, Bertram's sword was cut off by Sadie's sword, which slightly blocked the speed of Sadie's sword. However, Sadie was a white-clad titled knight after all, and he swung with all his strength. The mithril sword still hit Bertram's chest and abdomen fiercely, and the full body armor made of fine iron was completely pierced, and bright red blood instantly flowed out of Bertram's armor.
"You vile bastard! I'm going to kill you!"
Luo's eyes were a little red, he had already drawn his sword and rushed towards Sadie!
"Lord Alice, is this how your Jones family entertains guests?"
At this moment, Yurik, who had been smiling, finally couldn't sit still anymore and immediately asked Alice righteously.
"How dare you say that? That Sadie used a mithril weapon, and he even used despicable means to plot against Bertram and wanted to kill him. Even if he is not killed by Commander Rawl, I will kill him later!"
Before Alice could answer, Gandalf in the back could no longer sit still. He stood up and yelled at Ulic.
"Although it's a competition, swords have no eyes, and casualties are inevitable. If Sadie is injured, I promise not to blame anyone. Although he used a mithril longsword, there seems to be no law in the Principality that prohibits the use of mithril weapons in competitions and duels, right? If you have some, then feel free to use them!"
Ulic ignored Gandalf's question. If it were normal, he would definitely question Alice if she still had the proper manners to treat guests with respect. However, Sadie in the field was in danger at this moment. Sadie would definitely not be able to stop Roll, the peak silver knight, so he continued to speak to Alice.
"Roll, stop it!"
Suddenly, Alice stood up and shouted towards the field, then looked at Yurik with a cold light in her eyes, but did not say anything.
"My Lord Earl, we can't let him off so easily!"
Gandalf was somewhat unwilling to accept this. Bertram, like Gandalf, was one of the more powerful vassals under the Jones family. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Normally, Gandalf and Bertram had a very good relationship. Now that he saw that Bertram had been ambushed and his life or death was unknown, how could Gandalf swallow this humiliation?
"Alice, I have a suggestion!"
Even Gervis, a man with a strong mind that had been influenced by various divine dramas in his previous life, hated Sadie and Yurik's shamelessness. Seeing his father so excited, Gervis came up with a plan and proposed it to Alice.
"Since Viscount Yurik said so, do you dare to let Sadie compete again? This will not only calm down the baron behind him, but also prove that Sadie won the victory by his own ability?"
"Can!"
Yurik did not hesitate at all. In a competition, he could surrender, although it was a bit indecent, but he did not mind as long as he could save Sadie. Sadie did not care about his reputation anyway, otherwise he would not dare to use despicable means to plot against his opponent in front of so many people.
Sadie has made a great contribution to Charles today, so of course Yurik has to protect Sadie.
After getting Ulic's response, Gervase's mouth curled up. This bastard has fallen into a trap. Although he doesn't know whether his father's fighting power is the same as Bertram's, Sadie has a mithril sword, but Gandalf has the mithril sword forged for him by Gervase and a full body armor. If it weren't for the horseback duel, he could only use the wooden knight's lance. Gervase is sure that Sadie will definitely be stabbed to death by Gandalf like a skewer in the first place.
"Alice, I'm going to go down and see how Baron Bertram is injured!"
At this moment, Bertram in the field had been quickly carried into the underground passage by several guards. Gervis found an excuse to talk to Alice.
"Well, go ahead! Tell the doctor to do his best to treat Baron Bertram!"
Alice certainly had no objection. She originally wanted to go in person, but with so many guests watching, if she didn't appear calm, the earl families would think they had an opportunity to take advantage of her. Besides, there would be a competition coming up, so Gervis' request was exactly what she wanted, and he could go to visit on Alice's behalf.
"Baron Gandalf, it's up to you now!"
Although Alice hated Sadie, her position meant that she could not act as recklessly as Gandalf and Gervais did. Now she only hoped that Gandalf could seek justice for Bertram.
"As you command, sir!"
Gandalf had also stood up by now, and walked out of the central stand shoulder to shoulder with Gervase.
"Father, please come with me first! I have weapons and equipment for you!"
As they walked out into the corridor, Gervase said something to Gandalf.
"Weapons and equipment? Little Gervis, father has them himself, and he's used to them, so he doesn't want to change them!"
Gandalf didn't know that the equipment that Gervase had prepared for him was mithril equipment, and thought it was just ordinary weapons and equipment, so he shook his head and explained to Gervase.
"Father, it's Mithril equipment, and it's enhanced!"
"What? Mithril equipment, and it's enhanced? Little Gervis, do you... do you have it yourself?"
Gandalf was a little surprised. Although he knew that Gervis had a lot of mithril, it was very expensive to forge a set of mithril equipment, not to mention the enhanced mithril equipment. He had only given Gervis more than 20 gold coins at the beginning, so it would cost a lot just to forge the mithril equipment!
"Of course I have it! A complete set, too. Come on, father, just concentrate on avenging Baron Bertram!"
Gervis brought Gandalf to where the carriage was parked, and Ik and others guarded the carriage. After all, the mithril equipment was so valuable that they would have no place to cry if they lost it without sending someone to watch it.
When Gandalf saw the silver armor inlaid with gold edges and with complex inscriptions on the chest and abdomen taken out of the carriage, his eyes almost popped out.
Once upon a time, Gandalf's full body armor was forged when he inherited the baronship. Although it was strengthened with one or two inscriptions, it was just a full body armor forged with ordinary fine iron. Moreover, after years of fighting, many dents that could not be restored were left on the armor.
The old full-body armor compared to the one Gervis had prepared for him was like a worn linen shirt compared to a finely crafted silk dress.
"Father, don't just stand there, try it on and see if it fits you! Although I made it according to your measurements, you're not here, so I don't know if it's comfortable to wear."
Seeing Gandalf staring at the full body armor with eyes wide open, Gervase began to urge Gandalf. However, it was rare for Gervase to see Gandalf in a daze, which made Gervase quite happy. It was also a compensation for himself for taking over the original owner's body.
With the help of Ik and others, Gandalf quickly put on the full body armor. In an instant, Gandalf looked like the king returning from those movies and TV shows. If it weren't for the immediate battle and the lack of a red cloak on the full body armor, Gervis felt that Gandalf would definitely blind everyone's eyes.
"Father, how is it, does it fit?"
Gervase circled Gandalf and asked.
"Very comfortable. The craftsman who made this set of armor has excellent craftsmanship! It's even more comfortable than my previous set, and there's no lag at the joints!"
Gandalf had a big smile on his face. He stretched his arms and legs a bit before answering Gervais with satisfaction.
Gandalf was a veteran who had been on many battlefields. He certainly knew what kind of armor and weapons were the best. So the moment he put on the full body armor, Gandalf was impressed by Bernard's craftsmanship.
"Then I am relieved, father, and teach that despicable man a lesson! I will go to see Baron Bertram now!"
Handing the rune-carved sword to Gandalf, Gervase said encouragingly.
"Little Gervis! You've grown up!"
Gandalf took the sword, looked at the inscriptions and the gleaming cold edge of the blade, his eyes slightly red as he sighed and said something.
Then he turned quickly and walked towards the underground passage of the arena. Gandalf has always been a carefree and generous person, but today he was really moved by his second son, whom he was most worried about in the past.
