Bang... Bang bang! boom! boom!
On the Silver Blade's recruit training ground, two huge figures were fighting in the middle of the cage.
The two Astartes only wore training armor, and in a space of less than twenty square meters, they swung the edgeless training swords in their hands at a high frequency at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye.
In this level of cold weapon melee combat, strength and speed are the most basic tickets.
If you don't have this, then you are not qualified to know the form of your own death.
For such an enemy, it would be difficult for ordinary mortals' dynamic vision to even capture their movements, let alone the possibility of counterattack.
Low-quality quantities no longer make sense in this environment. Unless they are like those Krieg legions who are silent and rushing to death, sacrificing several times the enemy's sacrifices in exchange for a chance to die together, can there be any chance of victory. .
The best way to fight an Astartes is another Astartes, and the same principle applies here.
The two Astartes on the field were indeed expounding this truth with their own actions.
With long and frequent confrontations, it was rare that both fighters in prime condition gave each other no clear chance.
Therefore, the final result of the battle can only be determined based on the subtle advantages and disadvantages of the center of gravity caused by the difference in positions between the two sides when the battle began.
This is a rare high-level, same-level competition.
As the dominant side continued to exert pressure on the inferior side, the result of this close-quarters fight, which lasted for a full 10 minutes, was about to come to an end.
When one of the two parties in the battle can no longer maintain the circulation of his center of gravity, the other party's premeditated terminal attack will also arrive at the same time.
This is a feeling of despair, that is, the other party knows how you will die, and you know it yourself, but you are unable to resist the fatal blow.
The warriors around the cage could no longer hold back their enthusiastic emotions, and they cheered excitedly toward the arena.
Paladin Gavins on the field stretched out his right hand and pulled up the Eighth Company Commander Yuler who was lying on the ground.
After briefly hugging each other, Gavins raised his hands to declare his victory to those around him.
He also signaled that brothers who were interested in fighting him could do it again regardless of his physical strength.
However, in addition to the great mentor Aidan, Captain Ferdinands, recognized as the strongest warrior in the recruit company, had already fallen to Gavins's violent attack before.
The remaining recruits had no interest in a losing battle, and the veterans also smelled a strange smell from Gavins' steady breathing.
Wolves always get wiser with age, and so do warriors. This group of veterans smelled a conspiracy in Gavins. He seemed to have not used all his strength in the seemingly fierce confrontation just now.
Such an enemy made the old wolves lose interest in ending up, and the scene actually cooled down for a while.
So Gavins had no choice but to turn around and look at Calvin in the corner.
He had not joined in the cheers since the beginning and was sitting quietly in the corner with his eyes closed, meditating.
"Brother Calvin! Are you interested in a hearty battle?" Gavins shouted.
Meditation is a new ability recently developed by Calvin.
The specific function is that after watching a battle, he can use multi-threaded deductions to bring himself into one side of the battle during meditation, and practice his battle tactics in a completely practical way.
This kind of confrontation is different from the fighting style of fighting each other in the iron cage. The battle with the purpose of fighting each other includes but is not limited to martial arts, psychological games, position selection, timing of attack, etc.
It really made Calvin extremely happy, as addicted as a teenager addicted to the Internet.
But also different from the real iron cage, the opponent will not hold back when the confrontation fails, as in training.
On the contrary, the emotionless opponents in these deductions will only kill Calvin mercilessly when he reveals a flaw.
Calvin, who had been beheaded many times, was in a daze. Hundreds of various but very real ways of death in a short period of time made it difficult for his spirit, which was far beyond ordinary people, to bear.
And his fighting skills began to improve by leaps and bounds at the cost of these deaths.
The first mimetic enemy in Calvin's Meditations is Gavins.
Sora had a lot of brute strength from the beginning, but he could only be easily killed by teasing.
It took Calvin a full month to reach the point where he could forcefully kill the opponent with his own reaction speed and strength without any skills.
After finishing the kill, before Calvin could even take a breath, he was shocked to see two identical Gavins "refreshed" opposite him in the world of meditation...
After being killed again without any resistance while focusing on one thing and the other, Calvin learned from the pain.
He began to search for all memories related to the battle in his memory. It was only at this time that he realized that possessing memories and completely absorbing them were not the same thing at all.
At least for the original Ultramar Champion Calvin, the Ultramar Champion Swordsmanship for which he became famous, as well as other matching footwork skills and secondary weapon skills.
In fact, he just learned it briefly, and he was still far from being able to master it thoroughly.
On the other side, Iverson's assassin Calvin was equally impressed by his versatile claw and knife killing skills, as well as the matching psychic shadow step that resists the law of inertia and gravity. Calvin even learned more about it. lonely.
As for Calvin's other martial arts, he probably knew about them, but he didn't know what they were.
The advantage of the brain's ability to think faster than reality is enhanced by multi-threading in Calvin, and the effect is almost ten times or a hundred times more effective.
During the daytime classes, except for the morning class on military knowledge and discipline in the Silver Blade's auditorium, he could not close his eyes and meditate.
He made full use of the free time after afternoon training sessions and evening prayers as much as possible.
One month in real time corresponds to at least ten times more fighting time in meditation.
After the two Gavins are dealt with, there are three Gavins.
Not surprisingly, Calvin once again resisted for less than two minutes and was successfully strangled by three people who cooperated tacitly. The cost was only one person's disability.
Because he was always fighting against Gavins alone, Calvin had become more and more familiar with his behavior.
He didn't bother to change his target, he just followed one and fought to death, and achieving results was his character.
So after a month of suffering, Calvin finally became proficient in Ultramar swordsmanship and finally broke the tacit sword network of the three Gavins on the opposite side, and died together with one of them.
Although the result was still the pain of death, Calvin, who had been depressed for a month, couldn't help but feel proud.
When Gavins called Calvin in the real world, it happened to be the time when he ended this meditation.
The pain and anger of being beheaded by the two remaining Gavins during meditation, coupled with the nearly sleepless battle for a month, made Calvin look calm when he looked at Gavins in reality. But full of killing intent.
He bared his teeth at the unsuspecting Gavins and said, "Okay, here we go."
Gavins was also pricked by this unexpected look, which was not in line with his assessment of Calvin...
In his impression, the original body, which has not yet fully mastered a set of basic combat skills, has an absolute advantage physically.
But under the "deliberate care" of the experienced Gavins, there was absolutely no chance of turning around.
(I would like to explain here that the targeting of Calvin is by no means malicious, but an instruction from the Supreme Master. Making the original body aware of the fragility of his current martial arts as much as possible is an effective way to prevent him from wanting to go out. These are the original words of the Grand Master. .)
The secret about the Primarch has not been spread. Except for the captain of each company, the arbiters and soldiers below him do not know.
The ten champion swordsmen whom the mentors intentionally guided into the scene were originally the prototypes of the original Honor Guard for the Primarch.
What is the mission of the Honor Guard? Defending their Primarch at every turn, of course.
Especially since the original body of the Gray Knights came so hard and hard, if possible, the Grand Masters would not mind throwing the entire Order of Holy Knights to Calvin's side.
Carry out all-weather, 360-degree, no-dead-center security work, if Calvin does not protest.
But considering that Calvin has not gone out in the past ten years and is not allowed to go out; and the honor guard with ten champions in daily life is still too eye-catching even in his own Titan base.
Therefore, after the suggestion (protest) of the Primarch Calvin himself, the Grand Masters finally compromised.
They decided to choose the strongest among the ten champions in front of them to accompany their sacred Primarch on the honorary mission of rotating learning for 10 years in the entire Chapter.
In the end, the experienced high-level paladin Gavins won the final victory in this battle using some less honorable combat techniques.
So on the second day of the induction ceremony in the chapel, under the leadership of Grand Master Aidan, the Silver Blade warriors welcomed two special new brothers in the Victory Hall.
The new recruits don't know their origins, they only know that two new comrades have recently arrived, and they are both ridiculously strong.
The two of them had huge differences in their styles during their daily afternoon fighting training:
He rarely competed, but looking at his huge body, the new recruits had no intention of challenging, and the old wolves didn't want to be embarrassed.
The other one was extremely aggressive and went from private to arbiter without a single defeat in the first day of the cage match.
In the end, he defeated company commander Yule more than once in a one-on-one cage duel.
Today, these two powerful people who have never met before will compete in the iron cage under the witness of everyone.
Such a high-level battle that can be seen at a glance cannot help but make the soldiers curious and excited.
Even Aidan, the company's chief mentor who rarely appeared because he was busy with official duties, quietly stood beside the company captain at some point. Together with the company commander, they looked seriously and solemnly at the battle that was about to begin in the cage.
The battle is about to break out.
