5

This town is many times the size of Gorbull.

There are also a number and variety of shops near the labyrinth.

It stands out that there are many shops dealing with shields and bows.

I heard the labyrinth is prone to bows, but maybe the shield is also prone to them.

There are also many armor and combat clothing stores.

I know weapons stores, but for some reason there are many spear stores.

Many stores say "Curse Granted".

I thought the town would sleep too when the labyrinth went dormant, but that didn't happen.

Conversely, everywhere, extraordinary ceremonies, etc. are held, bustling.

When you think about it, the adventurers who are usually in the labyrinth will be waiting outside the labyrinth for the last five days, so they have a lot of guests. I mean, for the store, it's a shame. There are also many stalls.

Moreover, in that case, entertaining the adventurers and not boring them until they do not will also lead to the prosperity of the town.

So now that we can't get into the labyrinth, it's a little festive.

"Come on, now, no more participants -! We'll never get another chance like this again! What a prize! The Wolcan Shield! That shield of excellence is the prize! Come on, no more participants!

Speaking of "Wolcan's Shield," this is an interesting shield that Zinger had, with its magical and physical resistance and elastic features.

Lekan approached with a hanging voice. Edda and Arios also follow.

"Hey."

"Whoa? Big husband, you wanna try too?

"Try what?"

"Shield fight!

"Shield battle?

"Yes. on the playing field there."

Where it was pointed out, there was a place where the soil was raised about eight steps in all directions.

"Compete with shields and sticks"

"What happens when you win?

"If the referee decides there's a battle, he wins. If you fall off the field, you lose."

"Which shield to use"

"Prepare your shield yourself! I'll get the stick to use what we've got."

"What kind of use can a shield be?

"Absolutely! How can an adventurer fight a warcraft and say," I won't allow this kind of shield to be used "?

"What happens when you die?

"You said the dead one was weak. In the labyrinth, weakness is bad!

"Is it free to join"

"Don't be silly! It's not free! I'll have one big red potion out. But if you get hurt badly in the game, I'll cure you with that big red potion. In that case, the game will be over there."

Recan put up the collar of his coat, took out the big red potion and gave it to the man in the call.

The man let him peel his eyes off a bit and laughed with a huge breakdown in his face, proclaiming with a high potion.

"Add one participant -! This black husband is in!

A wild horse, or audience surrounding the playing field, cheered loudly. After that, the words of the hiccups fly.

"Sir, what's your name?

"Lecan."

There is a tent-like tent with a long desk. On the other side of the long desk, three old men sit. And there's a shield and a cage on the long desk. The shield looked just like the "Wolcan's Shield" once.

All the wild horses seemed adventurous. In the front row, there is a man who looks familiar.

He's a sober man from Vegar.

I didn't have a weapon yesterday, but I do today. A sword.

The swordsman's man looked at Rekan with a slight laugh, but when Rekan glanced at him, he laughed at his face as if he was funny and irresistible.

"Come on, sir, grab a shield and sit around!

That is how the man of the call approached the tent, and placed it in a cage on his desk, a large red potion. Three old men smile and look at it. Two of the old men are relatively young and in good physical shape. The other one, this is quite old, thin and small, with a necklace and a cane. It is about the size of a sceptre and a sceptre, a kind of sceptre that Lecan has never seen before.

Around the corner, it was pointed out, is the corner surrounding the square playing field. There are men with shields sitting around, waiting for their turn.

Lekan went into the shadows and took out a giant shield.

How huge is it, it is tall enough to reach from Lecan's neck to his toes and has a lateral width that exceeds Lecan's shoulder width by an excellent margin. When it comes to rectangles, they are rectangular, but the surface is not flat and curved into a natural shape. Speaking of shapes like cut some of the cylinders?

In the labyrinth of the world where it was, there was a hierarchy that could not reach the boss's habitat without passing through the valley where the rocks sprayed innumerably. I got it at that time, and I used it from time to time. Very thick and sturdy construction. The surface is full of scratches, causing many of the fierce fights that the user has followed.

This shield is as big as it can get into and out of Lecan's Storage. I've used a shield bigger than this before, but I can't carry it, so I sold it off when I was done with it.

Participants peeled as Lekan proceeded to the waiting position with that shield.

The audience has flown away.

"Big man! You can move with a shield like that!

"Thank you for your hard work."

"If you're a shield, you won't get hurt. Stupid bastard."

"Such a shield, I wouldn't be able to hold it without both hands! How did you attack me?

And a loud laugh sounded everywhere.

"Come on, come on, no more participants -? Deadline! Really! All right. Deadline! Gentlemen, wait! Finally, we have a tournament. Ah!

I got a big cheer.

A referee-like figure went up to the playing field.

"You and you, get up on the field."

The person nominated two participants. Opponents and sequences seem to be randomly chosen.

The referee questioned their names and gave each of them a stick.

Short stick.

The grip area is thinner and the striking area is thicker. The tip was rounded and scraped, and the killing power seemed extremely low.

"Oriental, Gazev!

When the referee proclaims his name, the wild horse cheers him up.

"The West, Gonza!

I cheer again.

"Match, start!

The game started.

Gazev has a thick round shield, and Gonza has a carved kite shield.

They both stand shields diagonally in front of their bodies, slightly hipsided, twisting to the left and right, wandering through their opponents' gaps.

"Yah!

Gonza attacks with a stick.

Gazev takes it with a shield.

sounds kinky.

Gazev sticks out a stick.

Gonza quickly even jumps back and flips this, hitting Gazev's arm sideways with the shield on his left hand.

"Gu!"

Gazev's stick rolled out of his hand and out of the game field.

"That's it! Gonza wins!

I cheered softly.

(I see)

(Due to the short time between sticks)

(How much you have to step in to attack)

(That's what's making the battle interesting)

Now if we let him have a long weapon, it could just be a boring game, just crawling through the gaps from afar. This tournament is like a performance designed to entertain the audience.

"Gonza sit over there. Gazev goes anywhere."

Gonza moved to the Occasion on the side of the tent. That seems to be the winner's seat. After World War II, we will fight with those who sit there.

Nevertheless, this town is a lot different from Gorbull.

Golbull was full of young adventurers, but there are only a few young adventurers here. The air in the town also feels like it is soaking.

Many of the adventurers I see have settled in as if they had spent quite some time here.

And there are many powerful adventurers. Quite a few people seem to be able to use it for the audience who are skipping through the game right now. Many have strong magic.

It amazes me that there are so many people with long weapons.

The usual labyrinth has both large and narrow spaces. Long weapons are difficult to retrieve in narrow areas. A long weapon can't be a "storage". I mean, I'll keep it forever.

So it is common sense in the original labyrinth of the world to use long patterned weapons only when fighting special enemies of special hierarchies.

However, there are many adventurers in this town with long-held weapons.

There are different forms of spears.

There is also a Halvard, there is a Grave, there is a three-fork spear, there is a cross spear, and there is also a long spear like a pike.

I guess the labyrinth here means there's so much space going on that I can carry that stuff through.

Carrying around the city without wrapping cloth around pointy spear tips and not being picked up by guards is a labyrinth city flair.

Just looking at it makes me look forward to entering the labyrinth and excited.

That's fine, but I'm worried about the tournament I'm about to attend right now.

The contestants are all used to using their shields. In other words, those who are fighting with shields in their usual adventures.

However, some of the audience seem to be leading adventurers with shields, but such shielded adventurers are playing the game with terrible nasty eyes.

(I thought "Wolcan's Shield" was quite a value.)

(They're not interested?

I am also concerned that the number of participants is not so high. Is this prize a common thing in this town?

After some games, the referee's eye for the next contestant turned to Lecan.

"You."

Your nomination. Looks like it's finally time.

Standing up, Edda cheered from the front row of the audience.

"Good luck, Lecan!

After a glimpse of Edda and Arios, Lekan went up to the game field.
