General Fred couldn't hold back his laughter the moment Josiah said that.
"I thought you were as boring as those old foxes, but it looks like I was wrong! Josiah Yanorod, I'll buy you a drink sometime! "
The Iron Nation had a long tradition of dueling. Gladiator matches were an event that was held every year in their country, and this old general was obviously addicted to it.
Josiah's words hit the spot that General Fred was most interested in.
"What's the content of the match? Horse racing? Or a duel? "
The fox-like man was ready for battle. His tone was filled with a sense of victory.
"Give up, old fox. You won't beat us no matter which match it is," said General Fred as he tapped his chest.
General Fred tapped his chest with his hand. This was a habit he had developed over the years. Since he was wearing a full suit of armor, this action was similar to a roar to boost the morale of the soldiers before a battle.
The man ignored General Fred and looked at Josiah, quietly waiting for Josiah to announce the content of the match.
"Didn't I say it before? A duel, a five versus five team duel, "Josiah further explained the rules.
"If the match was held in our territory, I'd be happy to organize a duel, but Mr. Josiah, this is Noland," the man reminded Josiah. "Noland doesn't allow these kinds of barbaric matches."
Whether it was the Iron Nation or the Frost Nation, it was a tradition for slaves to fight to the death in order to please others. The victors would walk on a path paved with blood and corpses to win glory.
"I'm not interested in those kinds of bloody fights. I'm not talking about a match in the real world."
Josiah opened the Weave in front of everyone and entered Warcraft.
In Josiah's eyes, Warcraft was still a defective product. Josiah only made the first half of the story in Warcraft One.
Moreover, the most defective part was that there was almost no voice acting. The extended game, Holy Spirit, was an unfinished product.
That was why Josiah only allowed Holy Spirit to be released for a week as a test.
"Game?"
General Fred looked at the two flags fluttering on Joshua's Mana Network, and his brows immediately furrowed.
Although the general used the Weave, he disliked Hearthstone and the games on the Weave.
The main reason for this was that Prince Klaus had been addicted to it for a period of time. In General Fred's eyes, it was a complete distraction.
"That's right. It's a game called 'Holy Spirit'."
"…"
At this moment, General Fred was silent. This feeling was no less than when he charged into the enemy lines on the battlefield, only to find that they were all a bunch of scarecrows, with a layer of asphalt under them.
"Please tell me the rules of the game."
The nobleman from the Land of Frost didn't dislike the game, so he asked Josiah about the rules.
"This game is called Holy Spirit. The rules are a bit complicated. You will be able to summon great Heroic Spirits from the past, and they will fight for you."
Josiah changed the interface and showed a bunch of screenshots of Holy Spirit to everyone present.
There were concept drawings for the map, as well as the hero designs.
Josiah added five new heroes to the original five for Holy Spirit, for a total of ten heroes.
It was quite a poor lineup for the starting lineup, but it could be improved in the future.
"Great Heroic Spirits? Master Craftsman Bazuli?! "General Fred immediately found a familiar hero amongst the pile of hero designs.
It was one of the founders of Iron Nation's Magic Engineering, an Alchemist known as the Master Craftsman.
"I designed it based on a drawing I found in a book." Josiah fixed the hero design on this character. From the outside, it looked like a hunchbacked old man whose left hand had been replaced by a magic engineering.
"According to historical records, Master Bazuli had never been on the battlefield before!"
General Fred objected to this character.
"But the magic engineering he designed played an outstanding role on the battlefield, didn't it? If you feel that this character offends the people of Iron Nation, I can delete it … "Josiah didn't remember the existence of portrait rights in this world, but the hero design respected the impression of the people of each nation. This was the standard Josiah had to ensure.
"This …"
General Fred was stunned for a moment. He noticed that the old fox beside him didn't mock him, instead waiting for him to finish.
"Forget it, forget it. I don't have the right to make this decision."
General Fred suppressed his prejudice against the Weave game and gave a more rational answer.
"It's quite troublesome for me to explain the rules of the game. You can go back and experience it yourself, so I'll explain the rules here." Josiah gave a thumbs up.
"First, the participants must be from a nation. For example, General Fred and the other nobles of Iron Nation, you can only participate as a team from Iron Nation. Each team can have a maximum of eight people. Five will be official participants, while the other three will be substitutes. Once the participants have registered, they can't be changed."
After speaking, Josiah raised his index finger again.
"Second, the competition will be held seven days later at the Hearthstone Tavern. You can prepare the game peripherals yourself, such as the crystal mouse. I'll vacate the venue on that day." At this point, Josh raised his middle finger. "Thirdly, some of the above can be considered as rules, and some of them are suggestions. There are still some rules that I haven't thought of yet, so just take them as suggestions."
"According to what you said, Mr. Josiah, we can only gather six teams here. Can we participate as individuals?"
The man from the Land of Frost seemed to be dissatisfied with the system of countries participating in the competition.
Some of the people present were nobles from smaller countries, while the majority were nobles from the Land of Frost.
"It's meaningless to participate as an individual. Or is this gentleman not willing to represent your country in this small competition?"
Josiah had made this rule deliberately.
The nobles of various countries had gradually experienced the benefits of the Magic Net. The rarity of the World Tree's leaves meant that the Magic Net would become a luxury item.
Josiah decided to make use of this competition to turn the Magic Net competition into a showdown between knights and the Iron Nation. It would allow the winner to win supreme glory and be watched by the entire world.
Of course … at this stage, Josiah saw it as a "small bet" in the tavern. However, this was just a test.
The best situation Josiah hoped for was that as time passed, the nobles would not choose to settle their grievances with swords when they had conflicts. Instead, they would calmly sit down and play a round of Holy Spirit.
"The Karshilov Family represents the Land of Frost in this competition." This man was the most powerful among all the nobles of the Land of Frost present. Of course, he had the absolute right to speak.
"I represent the Iron Nation."
General Fred also accepted Josiah's challenge.
"Very good. The choice of contestants is up to you. This game isn't one that can be won by luck."
Josiah looked at the two people in front of him. The moment they accepted the challenge, the smell of gunpowder had risen to a limit.
