Chapter 96 Winning
The two people chosen by Alex were also very confident. After getting Gervis' promise, they immediately smiled happily. Although Alex boasted of his great strength, he was slightly smaller in height and size than the two of them. After all, there was a one or two year age difference between them, and a teenager who was in the growth period could grow a lot taller within two years.
After deciding on the three-way fight, Audrey and Laurie drove the nearby youths aside, leaving a large open space for the three of them.
"drink!"
The three men stood facing each other. Alex was the first to take action. He suddenly exerted force with his feet, raised his strong arms slightly and rushed towards the two men.
The two people on the opposite side were also not afraid at all. When they saw Alex rushing towards them, the excitement on their faces became even more intense. Two against one, with the advantage in size, they were already very happy. Moreover, the three of them did not know any martial arts. If they only relied on physical fitness, they had no reason why the two of them could not beat Alex alone.
Boom!
Alex swung his fist in a feint, and when he got close to the two men, he retracted his arm to avoid the fist that one of them was swinging at him, and slammed his elbow and shoulder into the chest of the other young man.
However, the fist of the man hit by Alex also landed on Alex's back, but because his breathing was irregular due to the collision with Alex, the force was three points weaker. Alex, who was hit by the punch, twitched his mouth and was obviously in pain.
"Cough! Cough!"
As for the young man who was hit by Alex, he kept coughing. Alex's hit was quite powerful and happened to hit him right on the chest. He took several steps back before he covered his chest and rubbed it continuously, his expression looking painful.
"Wow, this kid is really strong. He actually knocked the young man back several steps."
"He was also punched, but it seems to be okay."
"This is just a sneak attack. What's next is just the real beginning."
The serfs who were watching on the sidelines were watching the competition with their eyes wide open. When they saw that Alex had hit the target with one strike, many people began to whisper. Some said that Alex was very good, while others spoke up for the two young men.
"asshole!"
Seeing his teammate being knocked back by Alex due to carelessness, the young man next to him did not dare to be negligent and swung his fist towards Alex's face again. This time, due to the close distance, Alex could not dodge it at all, but Alex was not going to dodge. He just turned slightly and raised his fist to swing towards the young man's fist.
"ah!"
He actually wanted to fight with the burly young man in a fistfight. The young man had an obvious physique advantage. In this situation, many of the watching serfs gasped. People didn't feel anything when a fist hit their body, but when two people used all their strength, the fistfight could make people feel scared.
"Boom~"
When the two fists collided, the people off the field were shocked and all looked at the two people who were fighting. After the fists collided, the young man who punched first had a distorted face due to pain. He quickly retracted his arm and screamed.
"Ah! Ah...it hurts, it hurts..."
The young man screamed at the top of his lungs, as if a pig was being slaughtered, and his tears were almost falling. The serfs watching the scene were so upset that they couldn't bear to watch.
On the other hand, Alex just turned pale without any other reaction. Alex did not look at the young man who screamed that he had lost his fighting ability. Instead, he looked carefully at the young man who had just been knocked back by him.
When the young man saw that his teammate was completely defeated by Alex in a fist fight, his face changed drastically. However, today's competition was too important to him, so he could only grit his teeth and continue the competition.
The young man slowly approached Alex, but he didn't dare to punch him like his teammates. Instead, he wanted to rely on his size advantage to trip Alex. As long as he could trip Alex, he would be halfway won.
The two men slowly approached each other and tried to throw punches in the process, but they were avoided by both sides. Suddenly, the young man seized an opportunity, accelerated suddenly, and put his arms towards Alex's neck, trying to grab Alex's neck and subdue him, but at this moment, Alex also reacted, quickly squatted and hugged the young man's waist with his arms.
"drink!"
With just a loud shout from Alex, the young man was actually picked up by Alex using his terrifying waist strength. After lifting the young man up, Alex did not delay at all and prepared to throw the young man to the ground.
"Stop!" At this moment, Gervis took action. Relying on the power of fighting spirit, Gervis instantly appeared in front of the two men and raised his hand to stop Alex's actions.
After all, it was just a competition. If this young man was thrown to the ground by Alex, and if he was unlucky and broke a bone, there would be no way to heal him in this world, and he would just become a cripple. For such a young serf, there would be no difference between turning him into a cripple and killing him.
So Gervis had to prevent the young man from being thrown to the ground.
After realizing that he couldn't move, Alex finally reacted. He immediately put the young man down from his shoulder and looked at Gervis with excitement!
The young man who was placed steadily on the ground by Alex was pale and obviously frightened.
"Very good, you have proved yourself with your strength!"
After Alex put the young men down, Gervis looked at Alex seriously. There was no fighting spirit in him, which meant that Alex defeated the two young men with brute force alone, which was very rare without any skills.
In fact, regardless of whether Alex succeeded or failed, Gervis would find a way to get him into the Guards. But now Alex can join the Guards on his own, which saves Gervis the trouble, and his performance is quite outstanding.
"My Lord, can I become your guard?"
When Alec heard Gervis' praise, his face flushed red. Like a victorious rooster, he held his head high and chest out, waiting for Gervis to fulfill his promise before the fight.
"Of course, I always keep my promises. Congratulations, Alec, you are now a guard of Storm Territory!"
"Thank you, sir. I swear to be loyal to you until death!"
After getting Gervis's affirmation, Alex immediately half-knelt on the ground and swore allegiance to Gervis.
"Good, get up. Alec."
Gervis laughed. Bernard, your son came to me voluntarily. After saying this to Alex, Gervis turned around and said to everyone present: "If any of you think you can do what Alex did, you can stand up now. I may make an exception and recruit you to be my guards."
In order to prevent everyone from having the impression that the lord was fickle, Gervis was also prepared to give everyone present a chance.
However, when Gervis finished speaking, no one stood up. After all, there were only a few people with supernatural powers like Alex. Alex had followed Bernard to work as a blacksmith since he was a child, and he had no worries about food. His strength was gained through training since he was a child. No one else had the confidence that they could fight one against two and defeat those two sturdy young men.
"No one?" Gervis waited for a while, and after making sure that no one was ready to try, he said to Audrey and Laurie, "You guys continue to choose. I'm going back to the castle first. Tell them to meet outside the castle tomorrow morning."
"Yes, sir."
"Alec, you can go back first and meet up at the castle tomorrow morning." Gervis said to Alec, then looked at the two young men defeated by Alec, "You two should also return to the queue and continue the selection."
The young man who had fought with Alec was now fine. Laurie checked him and found that he only had slight bruises but no bone injuries. However, both of them were defeated in front of the lord and were dejected. They guessed that they would definitely lose the position as guards. When Gervis asked them to continue to participate in the selection, they became excited.
"Thank you, Lord!"
The two immediately returned to the queue.
Although these two were defeated by Alec, it was not their fault. It was just that Alec was too strong. Even if it was someone else on the field, the result would be the same. So Gervais asked them to continue to accept the selection. As for whether they would be eliminated by Audrey and Lowry in the end, Gervais no longer paid attention to it.
