"what happened?"
In the stands, beside the arena, and even in the competition arena, the knights were constantly paying attention to the other contestants waiting to take the stage. When they saw the two figures in silver armor flying backwards like garbage as soon as they came into contact, they almost... Everyone who saw this scene with their own eyes had this question in their minds subconsciously.
This is the natural reaction of the mind being violently impacted by vision in a very short period of time.
After seeing two groups of four knights competing fairly normally.
The extremely fierce confrontation between the knights in dark red armor and silver armor immediately shocked all the spectators beside the arena.
But it was only silent for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, overwhelming and unprecedented warm cheers immediately resounded throughout the audience.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh..."
"Ahhhhhhhhhh..."
At this moment, no matter the royal family, nobles, businessmen, civilians, prostitutes... everyone who reacted was cheering for the knight wearing dark red armor.
Everyone was stimulated and shocked by the extremely powerful and violent blow of the knight in dark red armor on the field.
Why are tourneys so popular?
From the perspective of the upper class in King's Landing City, the usual food, drinking, horse racing, and playing with women have become boring to the point of vomiting, and they need new stimulation.
The tournament can provide them with everything new.
From the perspective of the lower-class people in King's Landing, daily entertainment is scarce, pockets are tight, and life is hard and unbearable.
Only the martial arts tournament can make them feel the long-lost excitement, happiness, and even the opportunity to get rich overnight.
They long for large-scale events such as tourneys more than anyone else.
Because it allows them to temporarily forget the poverty, pain, numbness...even everything in life.
The two groups of four knights who jousted at the beginning did indeed contribute a wonderful contest to them.
They also gave their warmest cheers without hesitation.
However, similar stimulation is fresh the first time, but almost saturated the second time.
This was evident in their cheers and the beginnings of distracted chatter.
The audience wants fresher and more exciting competitions. Although they don't say it out loud or even realize it, they must be yearning for it subconsciously.
Just in time, in the third game, Morgan stood up.
With just one blow, the knight in silver armor was easily defeated, and even flew backwards for more than ten meters before falling to the ground.
Such an exaggerated, shocking and exciting scene... it has definitely never been seen by countless viewers.
Even in previous tournaments, I had never seen such a feat of knocking other knights off their horses for more than ten meters.
Of course, the countless spectators in the stands immediately burst into cheers like a tsunami.
Even King Robert Baratheon, who was on the highest stage, stood up from his throne the moment Morgan knocked away the silver-armored warrior, roaring and shouting.
Queen Cersei Lannister beside her had forgotten for a moment that Morgan was now a member of the rival Stark family. She slightly narrowed her charming green eyes and stared at the tall man wearing dark red majestic armor on the field. , the tall figure who looks more and more handsome and conspicuous can't take his eyes away and doesn't know what he is thinking.
On the side, Prince Joffrey felt even more disgusted when he saw the annoying guy who had made him embarrassed in public.
In the noble area stands.
Arya Stark was particularly happy when she saw her teacher appear.
Now when she saw that the teacher easily defeated the knight in silver armor, Arya Stark jumped up from her seat with great excitement and shouted.
The sister beside her, Sansa Stark, just looked at the handsome Morgan who was just the swordsman of the two younger brothers and then became the swordsman of his sister, still frowning.
Although she has no other dissatisfaction with this powerful Morgan, who is highly valued by both his father and mother (she overheard her mother's conversation with her father when she came to King's Landing a month ago), on the contrary, he is handsome and even suits her very well. Deep down in my heart I once longed to look like a prince.
But Morgan angered the real prince and her future husband Joffrey, which made Sansa Stark's impression of Morgan not good.
As for Ed Stark.
He already knew who the knight in silver exquisite full-body armor was.
He was the squire of the former Prime Minister Jon Arryn, who was knighted by the king after his death. He was a monk knight from the Arryn Valley.
Although he didn't think the other party could beat Morgan.
But Morgan defeated the opponent so easily, and even knocked the opponent away in an exaggerated manner, which really surprised Ed Stark.
It seems that Morgan's true strength is stronger than he imagined.
It's just that this Morgan didn't respond to his wife's several tests. He obviously had no real intention to be loyal to the Stark family, which made him feel a bit regretful.
But that’s okay.
A truly powerful person will not give in easily.
He is not a stingy person.
Ed Stark also smiled and looked at Morgan, who was being cheered by countless spectators on the field.
Behind him, a group of powerful nobles sitting on the field became more interested in the knight wearing dark red armor without a helmet.
"That one I heard is the swordsman from Lord Stark's family?"
"It seems to be very powerful?"
"Yes, very strong..."
"Could it be the second Gregor Clegane of the Mountain?"
"Impossible, that monster in the Magic Mountain is not a human being..."
"..."
Several nobles talked a lot.
The finance minister, Littlefinger Petyr Baelish, who was among them, did not speak. He just looked at the extremely conspicuous figure on the field with his eyes in a daze.
In the stands.
Incomparably warm cheers were ringing.
On the playing field.
After Morgan knocked away and defeated the silver-armored knight, he was not as satisfied as the other knights to accept the cheers of all the spectators.
He looked at the silver figure who was knocked away by his special skill "Dragon Power" and fell heavily to the ground.
At this time, he made a move that surprised everyone.
He turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to his opponent who fell to the ground, and reached out to help him up.
This gentlemanly gesture did not make others think that Morgan was soft on his opponent or anything.
And the cheers that had started to subside became enthusiastic again.
At this time, the official staff at the side of the arena rushed into the arena and took over the Hugh Knight who was being supported by Morgan.
Morgan then got on his horse again, riding "Carrot", holding a giant spear in one hand and a small wooden shield in the other. He hit the dragon scale armor on his chest and walked around the audience, signaling to the countless spectators in the stands.
Tall, handsome, powerful, and even behaved differently from other knights, Morgan was the most impressive of the victors.
Some girls and young women with facial expressions even screamed when they looked at Morgan.
It didn't take long.
Morgan quickly left the field on "Carrot" under the instructions of the officials at the side of the field.
Immediately afterwards.
The two knights who were going to compete in the next jousting contest had already walked quickly into the arena on horseback.
The cheers heard from the field behind were far inferior to the cheers when the previous three groups of knights took the field.
With a calm expression, Morgan rode "Carrot" through the Victory Road track to another activity center.
Here, Morgan saw the two knights who had won the previous battle.
They don’t know each other, and they are their opponents in the second round of tomorrow’s competition.
No one is interested in talking to anyone.
After the official staff asked about registration, Morgan quickly rode "Carrot" to the meeting point of the previous competition venue.
Immediately after the lance competition, it is the "Archery Competition" format.
As a participant in the three-match format, Morgan is destined to be very busy today.
Arrive at the meeting point at the beginning of the competition.
Morgan's only acquaintances were Sandor Clegane, the hound, and Jaime Lannister, a man he knew well but couldn't deal with.
Looking at the hound Sandor Clegane, he was already riding his horse and stood at the entrance of the track ready to set off.
Morgan didn't want to go up to talk to him, but walked straight into one of the official wooden huts nearby.
But just because Morgan ignored other people, it didn't mean that no one paid attention to him.
After all, the scene where he just knocked away the Shufu Knight with great force can be seen from here, although the view is a bit worse.
When Morgan stepped into the cabin.
Many knights and contestants gathered outside immediately started talking.
"Who is that guy?"
"It seems that he is very powerful. Sir Xiu Fu is no match for him..."
"I have inquired, and it seems that his name is Morgan. He is not a knight yet, but he is the new Hand of the King. Lord Eddard Stark's family swordsman. His participation in the tournament must be guaranteed by Lord Stark..."
"The swordsman of the Stark family must be as strong as he is..."
"There is another powerful guy. It will be too difficult to get the winning reward in this horse and spear competition..."
"I never thought about first place. I would be satisfied if I could get second place in the jousting..."
"Hey, you still want to take second place, but you won't think so after I just found out about Morgan..."
"How to say?"
"This Morgan is not a simple man. He is known as a marksman in Winterfell in the north. A few months ago, His Majesty the King held a small hunting meeting in Winterfell. This Morgan killed a huge winter bear with one arrow. , directly won the first place in the hunting competition..."
"So, this Morgan is a little unusual..."
"I can't see it. The marksman can only mean that he is very good at archery, but this is a spear competition. Maybe Xiu Fu, who has only been knighted for a few months, is careless?"
Faced with such words.
Most of the knights who had just witnessed Morgan defeat Sir Hugh naturally didn't take it seriously.
Even if you are careless, you can knock the Xiuhu Knight away more than ten meters on horseback. How much strength does it take?
And what is the competition in jousting? Apart from the riding skills and skills, it is strength.
The greater the power, the greater the advantage!
The contestants and knights around the assembly point were talking a lot.
Morgan in the cabin didn't know.
He was currently asking the official staff about some details of the "Archery Contest" at noon and the "Team Close Combat Contest" in the afternoon.
During this period.
It's time for Sandor Clegane, the hound, to appear.
Riding along the track and walking into the circular arena, the hound Sandor Clegane, who was very familiar with the process, saluted the king and queen, and the competition began quickly.
There wasn’t much suspense, and it wasn’t an upset.
Sandor Clegane, the hound who has gained some fame at the King's Landing Tourney.
Although he was not as stunning and shining as Morgan, he still defeated his opponent.
As the competition between the hound Sandor Clegane came to an end.
Countless spectators in the stands around the stadium sent off the winner with enthusiastic cheers.
Next, it was finally the turn of "Kingslayer" Jaime Lannister.
The knights and contestants at the gathering point inevitably talked and criticized the "famous" Kingsguard.
At this time.
Morgan also walked out of the hut after figuring out the noon and afternoon game schedule.
Just in time to see Jaime Lannister, wearing a mighty golden armor, riding towards the arena.
Morgan immediately came to the gathering point and could see the location of the grand stadium a little further away.
There were no surprises either, let alone an upset.
"Kingslayer" Jaime Lannister defeated his opponent very neatly in the jousting and won the first round.
Although even when he won, the cheers he won were far less than those of others, not to mention that there were also a lot of curses, taunts, and ridicules mixed in with them.
But it’s been so many years.
Even in the face of more boos, Jaime Lannister walked away calmly without changing his expression.
It made Morgan think that this handsome man could be comparable to him, and it also gave King Robert Baratheon a slight change in his view of the Kingsguard who had been wearing a green hat for a long time.
Although he had no prejudice against Jaime Lannister at first.
It's just that he's standing in his way.
This made the two become rivals.
Soon, another group of two fully armed knights appeared.
After an uneventful battle, the winner walked onto the victory track and the loser left in embarrassment.
At this time.
There was sudden noise in the surrounding gathering point.
Morgan turned his head and saw an extremely strong and tall figure nearly two and a half meters tall, covered in black iron armor and looking like a hill, riding a tall horse into the track.
at the same time.
A knight riding a white horse, with a slender figure, wearing silver-white embroidered exquisite armor, and a handsome and even feminine figure also appeared on the track.
"The Mountain" Gregor Clegane;
"Knight of Flowers" Loras Tyrell;
Looking at these two people, listening to the discussions coming from around them.
Morgan immediately knew their identities and knew that these two were the biggest contenders for the first place in this jousting competition.
Morgan glanced at the big black "Magic Mountain" for a few times without paying attention, and quickly shifted his gaze to "Knight of Flowers" Loras Tyrell.
Not only did this guy not wear a helmet like him, but the entire body of his armor was embroidered with many exquisite patterns.
There is no doubt that this guy is more slutty than Morgan.
He is also much more famous than Morgan at the beginning.
When the two men stepped onto the playing field, overwhelming cheers immediately began.
Soon, as the competition began, two knights with completely different styles and personalities fought fiercely together.
Just when Morgan was a little surprised by the strength of the Knight of Flowers, something even more surprising happened. The huge Gregor Clegane of the Mountain suddenly became unstable and fell off his horse.
At this moment, something more and completely unexpected happened. The moment Gregor Clegane fell off his horse, the spear in his hand suddenly stabbed out. Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers, was shot and immediately shot at the horse. Fall.
The next second.
When the two figures fell off the horse at the same time.
The entire stadium stands suddenly became quiet.
