Chapter 62: Spring Festival Games

Of course, Kandy knew that a weak mage like Joan had difficulty competing with a strong Asa youth on the sports ground, so he took the list of competition items and reviewed it from beginning to end. Finally, he suggested him Participate in "dart" competitions that focus more on skill than physical fitness.
Before making the registration decision, Joan went to the dart training ground to observe the field and found that the Asa people used rebound darts in the competition. The rules of the competition were also based on the characteristics of the rebound darts. The darts he was good at were too light. The range is too close, which is a disadvantage under the existing rules of the game.
Conti hinted that he could extend the range of darts with the help of the "Higher Master", and Joan seriously considered giving up this too obvious method of cheating-because he had more hidden cheating skills.
The Spring Festival Festival was held on the last weekend of February, and Joan signed up for three events, including a 100-yard sprint, freehand tree climbing and long jump.
On the day of the game, when the thin boy, who was only 13 years old, appeared on the field, it immediately stood in stark contrast to those of the tall and muscular contestants. The audience admired Joan's courage while surprised, perhaps because of sympathy, and spontaneously cheered for the little mage. At this moment, people thought that Joan's participation in the game was just a fun, "focus on participation", but what happened next surprised them.
Joan did not live up to the cheering outside the court. All three games entered the semi-finals with unexpectedly good results. Among them, the tree-climbing game even reached the finals, and finally won the seventh place.
At the end of the two-day sports meeting, Joan not only won the respect of the Asa people as he wished, but also won a good name that he was reluctant to accept-"Monkey Master"!
On the evening of the closing of the Games, a bonfire evening was held as usual. The aroma of barbecue and ale accompanied by the singing of men and women lingered in the night sky. Qiao An didn’t attend the party because he was ashamed. After all, he only used the "sports belt"-not his own strength-to win good results. When he heard the praises of others in public, he always felt hot. Because Condy’s brother Magni Bovatan led an Assa hunter back from the northern investigation that night, Kandy’s parents were eager to learn from the eldest son about the north bank of the Eifen River, and Joan was also very interested in it. , Accompanied Condy out of the village overnight to welcome Magni and his party.
Joan and Kandy waited for more than half an hour at the entrance of the village. They didn't hear the rush of horseshoes in the distance until the middle of the moon. A short time later, a cavalry with a total of about 100 people appeared in Joan’s field of vision. The riders were dressed in jungle camouflage cloaks with dark green stripes. The night wind blew the cloak, and occasionally exposed the sword that was worn close to the body.
The horse team reached the gate of the village, and the riders strangled the reins neatly, turning over and dismounting one after another. The headed rider is particularly tall and burly, giving a sense of oppression like a jungle beast. When he lifted his cloak hood, revealing a sharp and handsome face, Kandy immediately cheered and rushed up.
"Magni, you are finally back!"
"Ha! Naughty girl, what I want to say to you, where did you go in more than a month?" Magni hugged her sister and kissed her on the forehead, and there was a deep concern in the blame. .
"Well... It's unclear to say one or two sentences. In short, because of some accidents, I have to cultivate in Delin Town. During this period, I was taken care of by many kind people."
"This little brother is one of the "good-hearted people", right?" Magni smiled at Joan with a slight expression, with no deep meaning in his eyes.
"Yes, his name is Joanne, my life-saver and best friend! Magni, you must not bully Joanne!" Kandy warned.
Magni shrugged and spread his hand in aggrieved manner: "Ah, when you have a new friend, you don't take your brother in your eyes, you are really my good sister!"
"Bah! You talk nonsense, I don't have it!"
Kandy's cheeks were flushed, and he punched his furious brother. In terms of the burly and magnificent figure of Magni's brown bear, his sister's fist is a little too small, but he is still very cooperative to pretend to be unbearable, making his sister angry.
Joan was envious of the deep feelings of the brother and sister. Unfortunately, as an orphan, he didn't quite understand how to get along with brothers and sisters.
Kandy and his elder brother made troubles for a while before he remembered his parents' advice, and hurriedly urged Magni to go home quickly. Walking on the road, Kandy was the most active of the three. He first introduced his brother to the situation of Joan's house, and then introduced to Joan the elder brother who was seven years older than her with a heartfelt pride.
Magni Bovatan is indeed worthy of his sister's pride. This young master of the Algonquin tribe definitely deserves a rare evaluation. He was recognized as the first warrior in his family at the age of twenty. Magni’s inheritance is somewhat special. He neither inherited his father’s druid inheritance like his sister Kandy nor followed his mother to become a ranger, but instead worshipped Kittlanders from the Far East of the Old Continent. Legendary lord Beowulf is a teacher.
Kitland’s lords Beowulf and Natasha had visited the New World many years ago, during which they lived in the village of Povatan for a long time, and had a deep friendship with the Kandy family. Unfortunately, Kandy was too young to be like Mag Nepal was so fortunate to get guidance from this legendary couple.
Magni's first superlative career was "Lion Totem Warrior". After reaching a certain level, he successfully advanced to "Cord Warrior" under the guidance of Beowulf. "Lion Totem Warrior" is an enhanced barbarian profession, and "Cord Warrior" is a stronger and harder advanced magical profession, which is simply "Raging Paladin". Magni's first impression is "full of wildness", and his performance on the battlefield is wild and sturdy, so that he is awesomely called "crazy Magni" by the tribe.
Magni's style of dealing with people is just like his extraordinary professional "Cord Warrior": treating enemies as brutal as a mad warrior, treating family and friends as enthusiastic as a paladin, leaving Joan with a good impression, As for some wondering why this enthusiastic and cheerful young knight is called the "crazy"-after all, he has not yet witnessed the performance of Magni Povatan on the battlefield.
Magni Bovatan was extremely popular among the young generation of the Algonquin tribe. Joan and Conti followed him through the square where the bonfire banquet was held, and they had to stop before they walked far. Socialize with people. Along the way, people frequently got up and toasted to Magni. Magni also kept smiling and waved his hand, never refused to pass the wine glass, every drink, the heroic spirit and extraordinary wine volume won more praise for him.
The group of three walked around and stopped for half an hour, finally passing through the enthusiastic crowd to the bonfire that was burning most in the middle of the square. Victor Kalinin and Matoka Povatan are waiting for the eldest son to return. Surrounding the fire are the elders of the Algonquin tribe.
"Magni, come over and sit down, we are all waiting for the news you brought back."
Matoka greeted her son sitting next to him, and Victor handed Aiko a glass of white ale with a white foam.
Magni bowed slightly to his father, took the wine glass with both hands and sipped it out, winning a burst of applause again.
Joan frowned as he watched the Asa wine-to-glass empty, and could not help but frown straight. The sports game was still reliable. The "sports belt" cheated. He could not cheat by drinking. Fortunately, Victor and Matoka understood his hardship and told his relatives and friends in advance that Joan was a mage. It is well known that in order to keep a clear head, the mage is always very restrained in drinking, except for Magni to thank him for this Time to take care of his sister's name toast a cup, no one to toast Joan, which made him secretly relieved.
Magni faced with the elders of the clan without a change of color, then wiped the corners of his mouth, put down the glass and began to talk about business.
In recent years, Viktor Kalinin and his disciples have been paying close attention to the "black wilt" that has spread from the "knob forest" in the north, lest this supernatural disease that destroys the jungle spread to the hinterland of Yalfheim, and Magni led the team to the north this time and took a great risk to approach the origin of the "black wilt"-the forest of knotted heads-to carry out investigations in order to find out the deep roots of the "black wilt" outbreak.
"My father, my mother, and the elders, we went to the north to investigate this time. We crossed the Eifen River on the way and reached the outermost area of ​​the forest of Hanging Forest, where a large black fir forest grows. An uncomfortable breath, as if all the trees are watching us with these hostile eyes from travelers in the south."
"I guess all the goblins living with these trees have also fallen to the side of the evil forces." Kandy interjected.
Magni nodded gently, and then his sister said: "The "Conquest Church" has expanded rapidly in the Midgard area in recent years. It is said that the "Head Forest" is the base camp of this cult that advocates conquest and destruction. What they advertise is that'the pioneers shoulder the sacred mission of transforming nature','the pioneers have the right to develop and use all the natural resources of the landless','if the jungle and the beasts hinder the pioneers' footsteps, they should use fierce fire Hejian conquered it'... as you have heard, these propaganda slogans are really deceptive, especially tempting for colonists from the old continent who are eager to obtain a fertile land, and it is precisely because of these beautiful The propaganda slogan, "The Conquest Church" has gained the support of tens of thousands of colonists in the Midgard area, and its influence can almost contend with the "Timus Church" and even the official faith of the colony "The Church of the Holy Light."
