Section 261 The duel between the assassin and the swordsman
The Evels Empire, the eastern main stream of the River of Life, the Eastern River called the River of Broken Fire by the dwarves, where the elves have blocked the second wave of powerful attacks of the dwarves. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The dwarves and elves have been unable to distinguish the winner for a long time, although the elves have defended the position, but because of the dwarves' fortifications, there are also a lot of losses, and the difference between the elves and the dwarves has gradually widened in the two dwarves.
The elves who survived this battle, although they all breathed a sigh of relief, they all knew that the war was not over yet, even if they repelled the dwarves, their side was still in a disadvantageous situation, and it was difficult to say whether they could even block the next dwarven attack.
"You say... Can we win?"
"Well, what do you say? Of course we can win! Didn't the dwarves' attacks be repelled by us again and again?"
"Although that's right... But..."
"I know what you're thinking, don't be so nervous, although the fact is that we also have a lot of casualties this time, but we are still the victors, even if the dwarves have a lot of strength, but they have been defeated twice, the fighting spirit is gone, and the army without a strong will will will not be able to play its due combat power, and we are the opposite. ”
“... What you're saying is. ”
"Ha, then show the posture of a winner! Don't be sad!"
"Good!"
"Your Highness is here..."
The elven guards, who were chatting, saw their current leader, the future Elven King Adhel, and a lightly armed ranger following him, and they all knew that the ranger was a former subordinate of His Highness Adher, and now everyone thought that the ranger named Lolodi was his personal guard, although Adhel did not say anything publicly.
"Your Highness. ”
"Your Highness. ”
The two guards held their heads high, their hands pressed straight and forcefully to their sides, and their voices saluted Adhel in a loud voice.
"Hmm. ”
Adhel nodded slightly, and continued to walk along the devastated wall, all the elves along the way put down what they were doing and saluted Adhel with respect before continuing their work.
Finally, the two came to the highest point of the city wall.
It was a bit windy, and although Adhel was wearing only two ordinary thin clothes, he didn't feel too cold.
"Lolodi, what do you think?"
"Hmm... It's pretty much the same as you said, it's coming soon. ”
"How's the preparation going?"
"Almost. ”
"Thank you. ”
"Say what. ”
Adhel smiled slightly, Adhel, who had always been full of solemnity and sorrow, was now finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, and he continued to let out a long sigh of relief, the breeze blew across his young face, the hair on his forehead and ears fluttered in the wind, and Lolodi on the side looked at it, and had the illusion that Adhel was like an old man.
"The one who really works hard is you, Your Highness Adher. ”
Accustomed to the honorific titles that people used to him, Adhel no longer objected to Lolodi's use of honorifics for himself, and he acquiesced in Lolodi's words with a smile.
"I'm worthy of the elves, and worthy of the wayward Queen Majesty who gave me this burden. ”
"Your Highness Adhel, if you say this, you are not afraid that one day Queen Emilia will find out..."
"Heh, as long as you don't say it, what am I afraid of?"
He patted Lolodi's shoulder with a playful smile, and Adhel's eyes were full of trust, and Lolodi was looking at Adhel with a loyal look at him at the moment.
"Just hold on for a few more days and we'll be victorious. ”
"Yes, but until then, I'll have to keep myself busy. ”
"Haha, that's hard work for you again, my friend Lolodi. ”
Lolodi shrugged his shoulders impatiently, and spread his hands helplessly.
"Well, who let me meet a highness who can only support others?"
"Well, then you will admit it. ”
Adhel sighed and patted Lolodi on the shoulder, then swept away the short knife he carried at his waist with lightning speed, smiled smugly at the other man's pretended surprised gaze, drew his sword, danced twice, and handed it to Lolodi with the hilt.
"Let's have a long-awaited warm-up. ”
Adehel, who was suddenly interested, put on a posture and prepared to attack.
"As you wish. ”
Lolodi smiled happily, he hadn't used this way to relax for a long time, he had been running around for a few days, and now that the battle situation had finally improved, he could finally relax for a while.
The elves watched the two of them chasing each other lightly on the top of the city wall, clapping their hands again and again, and the news of the future king and his guards competing on the city wall spread at once, and the elves gathered nearby, while the elves in the distance could only look out or sigh regretfully and continue to work.
The swords danced with each other, the arc flickered, the battle between the two was more and more exciting, the cheers of the elves became louder and louder, some elves were chanting for Adhel, and some were also cheering for Lolodi, for a while, the elves' defense line was like a happy scene after a great victory.
"Looks like you have a little more supporters. ”
"What do you mean a little more? It's so much that I can ignore your share!"
"Look at the sword!"
Adhel seemed to have narrowly picked off Lolodi's sword, but it was actually very easy, because Lolodi's sword seemed to be fast and accurate, but it didn't have the ruthlessness needed to kill people.
After all, it's just a warm-up, and the two sides have been practicing against each other for many years, and they already know an unspoken rule: the one who reveals an irreparable fatal flaw first will lose. As for what to do, they all knew what to do.
"I've grown again, it's very tricky. ”
"Otherwise, how could I have completed the deadly tasks you have given me?"
Remembering the scene of Lolodi's duel with Adhel decades ago when he first became Adher's subordinate, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, Lolodi's assassin talent amazed Adhel and his colleagues, before he became a Ranger Warrior, there was no one to guide him in combat, of course, his first duel with Adhel was played to death.
Although Lolodi has learned to be humble under Adhel's tutelage and never flaunts his strength in public, and neither of them is fighting at full strength now, if it is a mission, he will do whatever it takes.
Even if the army assassinated the enemy general, Adhel believed that Lolodi could do it, and he knew that he didn't have that ability, but it was different if it was a one-on-one battle.
"Assassination and duel are completely different positions... Therefore, the required capabilities are also different. ”
As he spoke, Adhel seized the gap where Lolodi's sword was swung missed, slapped his sword away with one hand, and stabbed Lolodi's chest with a short sword with the other hand.
"Huh. ”
Out of nowhere, Lolodi conjured up a short dagger and accurately blocked Adhel's stabbing blow, then took the dagger in his backhand and slashed the back of the dagger against Adhel's knife to block it at his shoulder.
The movements of the two men came to an almost complete standstill at this moment.
"Your Highness Adher, Lord Lolodi, two unknown people have said they want to see you!"
The two men gave in to each other when they heard the cries coming from under the walls, and after returning each other's weapons, they turned and jumped off the walls.
