Chapter 19 The first step on the road to the lord
Moffitt's short stature held up the crossbow in a funny way, but when he put the crossbow on his arm and pointed it at a target in the distance, no one dared to laugh at the dwarf's uncoordinated appearance, but was instead Moffett's sharp eyes were shocked.
The dwarves are not only born craftsmen, they are also born warriors.
Through Moffett in front of him, Xiu Yin could already tell that this guy had real skills, and of course this also strengthened Xiu Yin's determination to win him into the company.
"I'll show you the strength of a dwarf warrior!" Moffitt has the pride of a dwarf family, and he has enough strength to be worthy of this pride.
boom!
Moffitt hooked his fingers, and the string of the crossbow vibrated violently, and the arrows shot hit the target in an instant.
"Wow, bullseye!"
Among the onlookers, there was an exclamation. The dwarves seemed to have shortcomings in height and magical attainments. Their fighting ability was not ordinary, and they possessed extraordinary talents.
Moffitt is also very satisfied with his own arrow. He has been taking good care of this crossbow. Today, it finally has a place to play. Then he turned his eyes and spoke to Xiu Xiu with some disdain. Yin said, "It's your turn, young master."
"Ah, what a precise arrow, and let me see the power of a dwarf warrior, but my cultivation has always been unlucky!"
Shuyin propped up the crossbow with his left arm, and looked at the rear of the crossbow. The green crosshair appeared in the center of the field of vision in due course.
"Hey, he's really a rich young master. It seems that he hasn't exercised much!" Moffitt smiled mockingly at the side, and he knew that the red-haired boy was a man when he saw Xiu Yin's posture of using the crossbow. A layman, so what Moffitt is thinking now is how he should behave when he wins the competition.
Just when Moffitt closed his eyes and was a little self-indulgent in the joy after the victory, he heard an exclamation from the onlookers, "Wow!"
"Ha, just based on the posture of using the mechanical crossbow, it must be that the crossbow bolts didn't even hit the target!"
When Moffitt slowly opened his eyes, he froze.
"how is this possible!"
Moffitt couldn't believe his eyes. He rubbed his eyes repeatedly with his hands. When he looked at the target again, he saw two crossbow arrows stuck in the red heart on the target. One was his He shot it himself, then the other one, although it is unbelievable, should actually be shot by Xiu Yin.
"Can that kind of posture that can't even be called a beginner hit the bull's-eye?" Moffitt looked at Xiu Yin with doubts in his heart.
Shu Yin seemed to have guessed what Moffitt was thinking in his heart, with a silly expression on his face, "Yeah, I'm lucky today!"
"Hmph, don't be complacent!" Moffitt snorted coldly, it was time for him to shoot.
Will I be defeated by a dude? Do not make jokes! Moffitt raised his hand, took aim, and pulled the trigger.
boom!
Perhaps Xiu Yin also hit the bull's-eye and had some psychological impact on Moffitt. This time, the crossbow arrow he shot didn't hit the bull's-eye.
"Damn it!"
The shooting this time obviously made Moffitt very unwilling, but he also didn't believe that Xiu Yin could hit the bull's-eye again.
boom!
Shu Yin's crossbowstring made a sound.
whoosh—
The crossbow arrow just hit the outer edge of the target, and almost missed the target. This time, it is obviously very different from the result of hitting the bull's-eye just now.
"Eh? Didn't win!"
A look of surprise appeared on Xiu Yin's face. Of course, he pretended it on purpose. If Felt missed the target and then he hit it, this kind of plot would end quickly. The climax of the script is full of Surprisingly unexpected!
Seeing that Xiu Yin almost missed the target this time, Moffitt immediately became proud, "Sure enough, you were caught in the first hit!"
The increase in confidence made Moffitt very relaxed when aiming this time.
boom!
The crossbow arrows shot out, and this time Moffitt's shot hit the bull's-eye.
Xiu Yin just continued to keep a smile on his face, but he was thinking in his heart: Moffitt seems to have a strong self-esteem, coupled with the natural stubbornness of the dwarves, if I hit the bull's-eye with him this time, he will definitely Become irritable again.
But if you miss the target on purpose, it will only make Moffitt more floaty. The higher your self-esteem rises, the more painful it will be when you fall. This is not the purpose of Xiu Yin. If you want Moffitt to lose , you have to fight him!
Shuin raised the crossbow, and by slightly shaking the crossbow in his hand, the green front sight displayed in the center of the field of vision was at the bullseye.
boom!
The crossbow arrow flew out, pointing directly at the bullseye.
"Hmph, I'm just lucky again!"
Moffitt snorted and blew his long beard, and he began to feel a little unhappy. How could Moffitt tolerate a **** who was rumored to be a good-for-nothing mage better than himself? Isn't that even worse than trash?
boom!
"Infuriating!"
Moffitt's strike was exactly as Xiu Yin thought, because Moffett's mood was unstable, he didn't hit the bull's-eye.
boom!
This time, Xiu Yin deliberately missed the target. He wanted to keep the same score as Moffitt. Once he hit it, Xiu Yin would hit it once. When cracks began to appear in his fragile self-esteem, it was Xiu Yin who began to recruit his moment.
boom!
boom!
boom!
…
Two people come and go, you hit and I hit, you miss and I miss, ten arrows are shot quickly, and the onlookers find that the number of times the two hit the bull's-eye is actually the same.
"Master Huin and the dwarf warrior Moffitt are tied!" Leiner immediately announced the result of the match loudly. He believed that this result was the best result and no one would be hurt.
"No, there are only victories and defeats in this world, there is no tie!" Moffett's loud voice blew his long brown beard again, and he did not approve of the result of the tie.
However, when Moffitt spoke to Xiuyin again, he no longer had the contemptuous tone he had at the beginning, "Master Xiuyin, I have to admit that your luck seems to be a bit too good, but Moffitt, the elite dwarf warrior, is not I will admit defeat, the last arrow, one arrow determines the winner, whose arrow is closer to the center of the target, whoever is the winner!"
After hearing Moffitt's words, Xiu Yin knew it was time to play his trump card.
Shu Yin put away the smile on his face, and asked seriously, "What good does the winner have?"
Dwarves are not good at thinking, they are often straight-headed and quick-tempered, Moffitt replied without thinking, "If I win, you will provide me with forging materials for free, such as all kinds of materials produced from this mine. Raw ore!"
Before Moffitt finished speaking, the onlookers were also taken aback. This is simply a lion's mouth. No matter how bad this half of the abandoned mine pit is, it can still produce ore worth nearly a thousand gold coins.
Xiuyin nodded, "Okay, I agree to your victory conditions as the mine owner, so what if I win?"
Moffitt became a little heroic at this time, "You win? That's impossible! I'll end this competition now!"
After Moffitt finished speaking, he raised the crossbow. This time, with the will to win, he aimed at the red heart of the target, and hooked the trigger with his right index finger.
boom!
Hit the heart!
"It's over!" Moffitt was about to declare victory.
Shu Yin aimed the green crosshair in the field of vision at the center of the target, and said, "That's not necessarily the case!"
boom!
Shu Yin's crossbow bolt also hit the red heart of the target.
"The closer you are to the center of the target, the winner, isn't it you who said that?" Xiu Yin celebrated the victory in advance in his heart, and his face also showed a look of joy.
Moffitt looked at the target, although his crossbow arrow also hit the red heart, but the arrow was inserted in the lower right part of the red heart, while Xiu Yin's crossbow arrow hit the center of the red heart!
"I lost!"
The crossbow in Moffett's hand fell to the ground. His pride and glory seemed to be completely lost at this moment. His dreams, his beliefs, and his strength all lost meaning in this crossbow.
Lost to a rumored half-baked mage master...
What face do you have to go back to your hometown? What about the glory of the dwarves? What else do you need to fulfill your dream of becoming a master blacksmith?
While Moffitt was struggling in his heart, a hand clapped on his shoulder.
Shuin bent down in front of Moffitt, picked up the crossbow on the ground and returned it to Moffitt.
Moffitt was very surprised. He didn't know what Xiu Yin was going to do, but he knew that Xiu Yin might humiliate himself in public, and might ask him to compensate him with gold coins, but he didn't even have a single gold coin on him...
"Mr. Moffitt, the great dwarf warrior, I wonder if you are interested in becoming an official employee of this mine? Of course, there is also a request from the young master who is a winner."
Under Moffett's wide-eyed expression, Xiu Yin continued, "Well, I sincerely hope that Mr. Moffitt can become a member here. Of course, as a treatment, he can enjoy the output of the mine for free. The ore...Dwarf Warrior, Mr. Moffett, would you like it?"
