Start with Lord of the Rings

Chapter 283 Strong sweep!

Take Morgan's performance at the tournament today.

Of course, he received more than one similar invitation letter today.

It's just that the other ones are either just reception invitations from some minor nobles, or courtship letters from some noble girls, and there is even an invitation to a party salon from a noble lady.

Morgan left behind one or two invitations that might come in handy.

The invitation letter from the well-known "Diana" in the high-end brothel "Missing Coast" on Silk Street in his hand is one of them.

"Woooo."

The cold wind whizzed across the street corner, making a weeping sound.

Morgan put away the letter, tightened the wide black hood on his head, and strode into the darkness.

With the start of the martial arts competition.

These days, King's Landing City is almost turning into a real carnival city that never sleeps.

Late at night and early in the morning, a large number of figures can still be seen reveling and wandering on the streets.

The shops naturally welcome this very much. As long as there is business coming, they wish they could stay open all night long.

When returning to House Stark Castle.

The night was already deep.

Morgan quietly returned to his room.

When I opened my eyes again.

The sky was hazy outside the window, it was already dawn.

"Good morning, Mr. Morgan."

"morning"

Morgan walked out of the room after washing up, and the servants he met all bowed their heads to Morgan, and some younger and bolder maids dared to say hello to him.

Morgan was in a good mood and nodded in response.

Before that, although the servants would salute when they met Morgan, they were far less enthusiastic than they are now, and it was just perfunctory.

After all, his status in the Stark family is only that of a swordsman.

The reason why these servants behave like this today.

Apart from the tournament held yesterday, there would be no other reason, Morgan knew it well.

Went all the way to the usual restaurant on the first floor and just sat at the table.

A servant appeared at the door of the restaurant.

Soon, Morgan walked out of the restaurant and strode towards the second floor of the castle.

Ed Stark had an invitation, but he couldn't refuse.

Step into the dining room on the second floor.

I saw Ed Stark from the Hand of the King, his two daughters, and the middle-aged female officer from King's Landing City as companions.

"grown ups."

"Come on, sit by yourself"

Morgan was just sitting at the big round table.

At this time, a servant quickly brought a breakfast that he used to eat before.

"How about it, are you sure you can get the No.1 prize?"

Ed Stark cut the fast deer into the entrance, looked at Morgan and asked.

"certainly."

"I just went for the winning prize."

Morgan nodded and smiled.

The tone is flat but reveals absolute confidence.

To those who don't know, Morgan is arrogant.

But in Ed Stark's view, Morgan didn't think Morgan was arrogant.

He still has a lot of understanding of Morgan's powerful strength.

The two continued to chat.

Arya Stark, who was usually lively and talkative, was much quieter today, just staring at the teacher chatting with her father.

Sansa Stark is the exact opposite.

The colder Prince Joffrey treated her, the more she hated Morgan.

So, the whole table.

In addition to Sansa Stark eating breakfast with a sullen head, the middle-aged female officer was also listening to Ed Stark and Morgan chatting about the tournament.

Soon, Sansa Stark finished her breakfast, put down the tableware and just said "I'm full" before getting up and leaving.

Ed Stark was a little puzzled when he saw this, the eldest daughter of the always well-behaved lady seemed to be a little different, but he didn't care.

But Morgan on the side could see it a little bit.

This Sansa Stark seemed a little angry.

And still mad at myself.

Because when he just looked over, he could clearly see Sansa Stark looking at him with an ugly face.

Morgan thought for a while, he had nothing to offend this Sansa Stark.

Even if the other party hates him, there must be a reason.

But soon, Morgan figured out a trick.

A month ago, the prince Joffrey he offended.

Later, Arya Stark's direwolf bit Joffrey.

It also made the conflict between Queen Cersei Lannister and Ed Stark, who was appointed as the Hand of the King, public.

In this way, it is no wonder that the happy and angry playboy prince Joffrey has a good face towards Sansa Stark, who is a member of the Stark family.

Thinking of this, Morgan has only one comment on this Sansa Stark: "A stupid girl who only wants to be a queen."

finish breakfast.

Under the leadership of Ed Stark, a group of people set off for the royal garden again.

Today is the second day of the tournament.

After a whole day of competition yesterday.

The lively atmosphere in the entire King's Landing City became more and more frenzied.

On the way to the Royal Garden.

Morgan and a group of people could clearly feel that the crowds going to the royal garden in groups became more and more lively.

The streets are densely packed with people.

However, ordinary people in the motorcade of the powerful and nobles would not dare to stop them.

The convoy of the Stark family hurried to the royal garden under the protection of guards.

It's just that Morgan's performance in yesterday's tournament was too exciting and impressive.

The big team had just left the streets of the noble district not long ago.

Morgan was quickly recognized on the back of the orange horse Carrot.

Thus, the next scene appeared.

"Morgan, I still beat you today, you must win"

"Morgan, look at me, I'm here."

"Ahhh Morgan, Morgan I love you"

"Morgan, someone said that your opponent today is "Kingslayer" James Lannister, can you beat him?"

"."

A large crowd followed behind the Stark family convoy, and people kept shouting at Morgan.

Morgan just smiled without saying a word, and quickly walked towards the royal garden under the protection of the guards.

Time passed slowly.

The light cluster in the sky became warmer that day.

The large team of the Stark family also arrived at the tournament arena in the royal garden.

The grandstand area around the stadium is crowded with people.

Morgan was separated from Ed Stark and his party at the entrance of the arena.

They went straight to the grandstand area of ​​the stadium.

Morgan rode straight to the assembly point for the tournament participants.

Today is the second day of the tournament.

After yesterday's first round of preliminary selection, most of the participating knights in the three competition systems have been eliminated.

What follows is the battle between yesterday's winners.

Compared with yesterday, today's martial arts competition will undoubtedly be more intense and exciting.

Come to the meeting point for the event.

Morgan could clearly notice that there were a lot fewer knights around the rendezvous point.

He wasn't surprised either. After fastening the "radish" in the temporary stable, he strode towards the cabin in the assembly point.

But before he got to the wooden house, he heard several knights gathering in front of him chatting about something.

"I can't imagine that Gregor Clegane, the "Magic Mountain", and Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers, would both fall from the horse."

"I heard that Gregor Clegane lost because Loras Tyrell rode a mare in heat, which caused him to fall."

"It's a bit of an understatement."

"But it's a good thing for those of us."

"You're too happy, without those two, there's Sandor Clegane the Hound, Jaime Lannister the Kingslayer, and the one who won all three battles yesterday" "Martial Archer" Morgan, I heard that he is now considered by the dealers in the city to be the No.1 winner of the "Bow and Arrow Tournament" competition system."

"Of course I know that, but I'm not talking about that"

"What I'm talking about is that there would have been eight winners today, but now that the two have lost their qualifications, there are only seven left. The two of them will compete, which means that one person will be vacated and directly enter tomorrow's winners final , how lucky is this?"

"That's right, I'm really lucky. Let's see who will be the lucky one today."

"Will it be a lottery to decide the opponent this time?"

"probably."

"Don't worry, even if we don't have to raise objections"

The voices of several knights were not low, as if they deliberately wanted to let others hear.

Morgan continued walking toward the cabin.

At this time, the door of the wooden house was suddenly opened from the inside.

I saw the white-haired old man I met yesterday walking out of the wooden house, and the soldiers following behind were holding the pot that appeared in the "Group Melee Competition" competition system that appeared yesterday afternoon.

Obviously, the opponents for the second round of today's jousting will be decided by lottery.

Just as all the participating knights thought, after the white-haired old man briefly explained the rules, the seven immediate spear winners began to draw lots to decide their opponents.

And inside the jar, there was a note without words.

Getting that one means that this competition has a bye and will directly enter tomorrow's winner's final.

Soon, knights came forward one by one, and quickly each took out a note.

Immediately afterwards, all the knights began to report the numbers on the slips, and those with the same numbers would be the opponents of this competition.

The rules are simple.

When Morgan opened the note in his hand and saw that it was blank, he smiled.

This may be that the more indifferent, the luckier it is.

Seeing that the lucky one was Morgan, the other knights were somewhat relieved.

This Morgan's performance yesterday was too strong and powerful, which really put pressure on everyone's hearts.

Now that he is bye, it means that it is impossible for him to meet the other party, which can be regarded as a good thing.

Soon, the list of matches for this round of competition came out.

The Hound Sandor Clegane vs Sir Messier;

Jaime Lannister v Sir Bartlett;

"."

It didn't take long.

Following the white-haired old man's voice fell.

The two participating knights in the first group rushed out on horseback with giant wooden guns each, and ran towards the big stadium.

assembly center.

Morgan had already gone to the temporary stable and untied "Carrot" from the reins.

The entire second round of the "Immediate Spear Tournament" competition system has nothing to do with him. The next "Bow and Arrow Tournament" is not short. The battle of Dud Clegane and Jaime Lannister.

Although Morgan participated in this tournament because he challenged Jaime Lannister in public.

Originally, he thought that he would meet the other party today.

As a result, he was emptied.

From the looks of it now, he would definitely meet Jaime Lannister in tomorrow's tournament winners' final.

After all, the king's orders cannot be disobeyed.

Of course, there is a premise now, that is, the opponent can only win and not lose in today's competition.

Otherwise, he doesn't even have the qualifications to face himself.

When Morgan's figure quietly appeared in front of the stands of several members of the Stark family.

Ed Stark was obviously a little surprised, but Arya Stark happily invited the teacher to sit beside her.

Morgan's arrival obviously also surprised some nobles around.

After he explained his purpose.

Soon, a short, ordinary but handsome young man in an exquisite robe got up and greeted Morgan.

Morgan also met Petyr Baelish, the Minister of Finance of the kingdom known as "Littlefinger" for the first time.

Then there was the youngest brother of the present king, Robert Baratheon: Renly Baratheon.

The Minister of Justice, who had won Littlefinger because of Morgan's victory, had a friendly attitude towards Morgan.

With these two powerful and noble ministers, they took the initiative to say hello.

Some other nobles around also got up and nodded to Morgan for acquaintance.

When Morgan finished greeting and was able to sit next to the student Arya Stark and began to watch the competition.

The first group of battles in the arena ahead has entered a fever pitch.

The two knights were fighting fiercely with wooden spears.

When one of them fell off his horse after being accidentally shot in the head by his opponent's spear.

Immediately there was an incomparably warm cheer from the stands.

And watched the victorious knight leave proudly amidst the cheers of countless audiences.

Morgan felt something different in his heart.

There were supposed to be eight winners in the second round of the "Pike Tournament", but now there are only seven winners. Morgan has a bye, which means that there are only three groups of six knights who will play today.

With the first winner knight away.

The second group of knights also rushed out from the track next to the arena. One of them was Morgan's few friends, "The Hound" Sandor Clegane.

No accidents.

The second "joust joust" ended with Sandor Clegane's victory.

then.

In the third game, when Jaime Lannister, who was wearing a beautiful and mighty golden armor, rushed out of the track and came to the arena.

When the loud voice personnel specially arranged by the official called out the names of the opponents.

Along with the cheers, there were also a lot of boos.

The title of "Kingslayer" had already spread throughout King's Landing, and even the entire world, under King Robert Baratheon's behest.

In the face of boos.

James Lannister remained expressionless and said nothing.

Although under his tight helmet, even if his face was angry, the audience in the stands couldn't tell.

However, James Lannister showed his strength as a talented young knight and defeated his opponent neatly.

Morgan, who was sitting in the stands, was not surprised.

He would be surprised if Jaime Lannister couldn't even make it to the final tomorrow.

The second round of Jousting came to an end with Jaime Lannister's victory.

after an hour.

The second round of the "Archery Competition" competition system started as scheduled.

A total of nine winners were produced in the first round yesterday.

Today, there are nine participating knights, divided into three groups of three according to the rules of the competition system.

There was no accident this time either. Morgan won the second round very strongly, and entered tomorrow's final with the other two winning knights.

afternoon.

The second round of the group melee competition has begun.

Because the number of contestant knights has decreased.

The competition time is shortened.

The schedule has also been brought forward.

A total of six winners were produced in the first round of "Group Melee Competition" yesterday.

Those who participated in the competition today were six knights.

According to the principle of fair competition, yesterday's group melee competition of four became a group of three.

Finally, there are two groups.

Morgan was placed in the second group this time.

With the end of the first set of competitions.

Morgan also stepped onto the field for the second time today.

At the very beginning of the competition, he took the initiative to attack extremely powerfully and swept the two participating knights out of the arena with his powerful strength.

Once again, unprecedented cheers and screams erupted from the audience.

So far, Morgan has advanced to the finals of the three competitions of this tournament with an extremely strong posture.

at dusk.

When Morgan became the No. 1 bet in the three-event system on a large number of casinos.

The news about whether Morgan can become the unprecedented "triple crown" in the tournament quickly spread in King's Landing City.
