Section 27 Kiru vs. Kerr
Kerr's challenge to Kiru quickly spread throughout the Imperial Capital, and the news was far more sensational than the last duel between Kiru and Hans. After all, both sides of this duel are young geniuses who have not been born for a hundred years, Kerr has always enjoyed a good reputation in the imperial capital, and although Kiru has not been in the imperial capital for a long time, the battle with Hans has shown everyone that he is not inferior to the strength of level 7 warriors, and the ambiguous relationship with the princess has also made him one of the most influential figures in the imperial capital.
And the outcome of this duel is the topic of most concern. If Kiru wins, Kerr's title will change hands on the first day, and although Kerr is higher than Kiru at the same age, Kiru has proven that rank is not a measure of victory or defeat. If Kerr wins, then Kiru's victory over Hans last time was just a fluke, and Kiru's aura will be dimmed, and some people even speculate that this battle will affect whether Kiru can eventually become a colt.
The good deeds and nobles in the imperial capital have all been mobilized, how can there be a war without gambling? Various aristocratic circles have opened gambling plates, originally there were only a dozen small gambling plates, because the first Parson Chamber of Commerce in the imperial capital intervened, integrating it into a big gambling plate, and all the nobles who bet on it were all included, and it is rumored that in only 5 days, the gambling money has gathered tens of millions of gold coins.
"Oh!?" Harry suddenly became interested, "There are still gambling games to participate in? I don't know what the upper limit of bets is?" After listening to Lilith's introduction, Harry felt a little ninety-nine in his heart.
Lilith has been approaching Harry lately in the name of looking for the princess, and Harry is used to it, Lilith doesn't seem to remember the green thief very much, as long as Harry doesn't show her face, she can't remember it, and she doesn't worry about being found out by Lilith, so she is not too worried. Although Lilith is messing around, she also knows that the mage's hood cannot be removed casually, even if she has a hundred curiosities in her heart, she can only hold back. Of course, protests were inevitable, and Harry ignored them.
"This competition can be said to be evenly matched, so the bets on both sides are fairly equal, and there is no upper limit on the bets. Lilith replied, "Are you interested too?"
"Of course, how can I not accept this kind of money sent to the 'door'!" Harry calculated that Hans should surpass Kerr in strength, so it should not be a problem for Kiru to defeat Kerr. In fact, many people understand this truth, but they are "confused" and "confused" by Kiru's only level 6 level, Kiru's victory over Hans is not necessarily stronger than Hans, and Kerr is by no means an idle person.
"Are you so sure?," Lilith said with a smile.
"Kiru is by no means a 'wave' for nothing! I don't know what the odds of the two sides are at the moment?"
"Kerr is currently 100 to 96 and Kiru is 100 to 99, with Kerr having a slight advantage. ”
"Okay!" Harry slapped his leg happily, "I'll press it for 100,000 gold coins!"
"100,000?" said Shanny, and Lilith looked at Harry with wide eyes.
"Is there a problem?" asked Harry, curiously.
"Harry, where did you get all that money?" asked Shanny.
"It's like, it's probably the biggest bet in the market. Lilith stuck out her tongue as well.
There are more than 1,000 nobles in the imperial capital, plus some wealthy merchants and officials, there are only tens of thousands of people participating in the gambling game this time, and the bet is tens of millions, that is, the average bet per person is only a few thousand gold coins. Harry's 100,000 yuan this time was really a big gamble! Those nobles who spent a lot of money would not dare to gamble on a duel with so many gold coins at once.
However, Harry's confidence is not unfounded, and these nights, Harry uses his strongest missile skills to train Kiru. The biggest gap between Kiru and level 7 fighters is the power of fighting energy, although Kiru has dragon power, but the gap between intermediate and senior fighters is not a little bit. Harry's missile skills can reach the attack power of a level 7 warrior, and the purpose of the training is to get Kiru to adapt to this force and seek a breakthrough in the spiral stabbing from the training.
Since Harry explained to Kiru the truth of Tai Chi and all things, Kiru's spiral stabbing has improved a lot, and the spiral stabbing with dark energy can fight head-on with level 7 fighters. But in terms of the strength of the vindictiveness, hard fighting is not good for Kiru. So Kiru tried to find a way to resist level 7 fighting without dark energy, and he already had some eyebrows, so he didn't come out to accompany Xianni today. In Harry's words, it would be better for Kiru to win the attention of the Empire's top brass with a clean victory against Kerr, and to make the name of the colt a solid one.
After Harry invested 100,000 gold coins, the odds on both sides quietly changed, with Kiru becoming 91 to 100 and Kerr 102 to 100. The odds have changed so much not because of the amount of 100,000 gold coins, after all, for tens of millions of gambling markets, 100,000 gold coins are just 'hair' and 'hair' rain. But Harry's huge bet attracted the attention of the Parsons Chamber of Commerce at the opening, and everyone knew the relationship between Harry and Kiru, since Harry was so sure, the top management of the Parsons Chamber of Commerce was not a fool, and adjusted the odds slightly.
It must be said that the helmsman of the Parsons Chamber of Commerce is still very courageous, and the last time Kiru fought Hans, he also had a high opinion of this young man, since Harry dared to spend such a large amount of money, he must have a great grasp. Once Kiru wins, his income will be more than a million gold coins than before, and even if an accident happens, he will only earn hundreds of thousands of gold coins less, and he will never lose money.
When Harry found out, he beat his chest again and again, and regretted it. If he knew this, he should have found someone to help him in batches. As soon as the odds are adjusted, even if you win, you will be close to 10,000 gold coins. At the same time, he scolded the Parsons Chamber of Commerce for being despicable and shameful.
The day of the duel was soon approaching, and the arena was full, and His Majesty the Emperor, Princess and Empress Xianni sat on the rostrum in the center, with the Grand Duke and several important officials of the court by his side. Although Xianni seems to have a calm face and dignified demeanor on the surface, in fact, she has already beaten a small gong and drum in her heart, and she is worried.
This duel really attracted His Majesty the Emperor, Harry looked from afar, and saw that one of them was dignified and majestic, with a slightly wide body, thick eyebrows and wide forehead, and an extraordinary momentum, presumably it was the Emperor of the Free Empire, Niland, how could he come forward to ask for a meeting?
"Ruhl, what do you think of this duel?" Nilander was asking Kerr's father, the commander of the Imperial Capital Infantry.
"Back to Your Majesty, Kerr has never experienced setbacks since he was a child, although he has excellent talent, but in recent years, he has been complacent and does not want to make progress, and his cultivation has stagnated a little. From my point of view, I would have liked him to lose this competition and teach him a lesson. Ruhl replied calmly.
"Hehe, you're not saying that because Shanny is here, are you?" said Nilander with a smile.
"That's not the case! The cultivation of martial arts, if you don't advance, you will retreat! Since Kerr was promoted to level 7, he has been a little slack, if he doesn't let him know that there are people outside the world, I'm afraid that his lifelong life will be limited to this. "This tiger father has no dogs, Kerr is excellent, and his father is really not idle.
"So, you're optimistic about my prospective 'daughter-in-law?'" Nilander joked as he looked at Shanny.
"Father~~" Xian Nijiao was disgusted, but she wanted the Grand Duke and the others next to her to laugh. Several ministers next to him laughed a little embarrassed, they all had young men of appropriate age in their families, and they thought that their status was stronger than Kiru, but they didn't want the emperor to seem to think of Kiru. It's not that they are too worried that Xianni likes Kiru, but if His Majesty is satisfied, I am afraid that this matter will be a certainty.
As the match was about to begin, everyone's attention was drawn to the field, and it was the first time that Kiru appeared in front of the dignitaries of the Empire. The last time he fought Hans, he attracted the attention of some good idle nobles. It was also the first time for Niland to see Kiru's true face, and after taking a closer look, he was quite satisfied.
"Report to Your Majesty!" Elder Hart of the Mercenary Guild asked for a meeting, and it is said that there is a report about the Dragon's Blood Mission!"
"Oh!" said Niland, looking delighted, "Could it be that someone has completed the task?"
The game on the field has begun, and this time Kiru reversed his previous passive posture and actually took the initiative to attack. The long* 'swing' rushed towards Kerr, the tip of the * pointed directly at Kerr's lower abdomen, but did not make the upper spiral stab.
Kerr was surprised, because although he had never seen Kiru fight, someone familiar with martial arts told him about the whole process of Kiru and Hans's battle. Judging from the process of the battle, Kiru only had a spiral stabbing attack that was quite powerful, but it was not necessarily stronger than Hans's attack, if Hans hadn't used multiple slashes at the beginning, he would not have easily been overwhelmed by Kiru. As long as you are cautious, this level 6 knight must not be your opponent.
Kiru's active attack was obviously unexpected by Kerr, but the opponent didn't use a spiral stab, is this kind of attack a threat to himself? But he didn't want Kiru to take * with a slip turn, and the straight stab turned into a spiral stab, 'swinging' Kerr's sword to the side, and *the tip changed the target, stabbing Kerr's right 'chest'.
Kerr reacted very quickly, a sideways move dodged the stabbing blow, the force that came from Kiru* just now was quite large, and he was still faintly able to suppress himself, Kerr suddenly became suspicious in his heart. Could it be that Kiru didn't show his full strength in the last battle with Hans?
Before Kerr had time to think, Kiru rushed over again, still a straight stab sideways. Kerr learned to be obedient this time, knowing that Kiru still had a back hand, and he was full of fighting spirit, and the sword body was 'straight' and met it. The swords 'intersected', Kiru turned into two hands*, his body reversed, and as the * body rotated together, Kerr was 'forced' to take a few steps back.
The audience on the field applauded, and the level 6 knight actually 'forced' the level 7 knight to retreat, which was really eye-opening. Several leaders of the Order behind the rostrum were also very appreciative, and they 'exchanged' each other and talked about each other, including Caesar who met in Spalding.
