Chapter 175: Jealousy
Dugu Qiu defeated and heard Luo Ning's verbatim instructions in his mind, and repeated according to his words: "Her Royal Highness the princess has a life-saving grace for me. I feel honored to protect her back to the royal capital!"
Although Lena still had the usual expression in front of her, Winston III felt pity and affection when he saw her pretty face that was seven points similar to Queen Irene.
He pondered for a moment, then took out a golden token engraved with the pattern of the phoenix feather condor from his arms and handed it to Dugu to seek defeat: "You protect Lina well, my Morrowind royal family will not treat you badly! In the future, if you need it, you can take it directly to me! No matter how difficult it is, as long as I can do it, I will definitely be satisfied with you!"
Dugu turned around after saluting, but saw a sneer on the corner of Princess Lena's mouth. He was puzzled, and then he heard what Luo Ning told him: "This king is so shrewd and calculating! It shows that he cherishes talents, and gives all the benefits to his daughter! You are Lina's henchman in his eyes, and giving you this golden order is not equivalent to giving it to Lina?"
"What do you mean by this master, that the king is actually a wise man?"
Luo Ning smiled indifferently: "She's just too infatuated! Infatuation won't affect IQ!"
While the master and servant were talking, Archbishop Auerbach had already entered the arena and cast a healing spell to heal Luke's wounds. However, although the wounds on his body can heal quickly, the scars in his heart due to failure are not so easy to close. At this moment, Luke finally understood why his younger brother, known as "Genius Randy", was slumping under the sword of this red-haired boy.
I saw Luke stand up with a long sigh, his head hanging to his chest, not daring to let Archbishop Auerbach see his cheeks turned red because of shame: "I'm sorry, Lord Auerbach, I failed to live up to your expectations!"
Auerbach didn't show his feelings on the surface, but he shouted bad luck in his heart. Because neither the hands and feet that were deliberately done on Luke last night, nor the detection magic left on the two of them before the start of today's battle, did not receive the desired effect.
In addition, the king wanted to see a milder ending, so he did not blame Luke, but quietly used magic to restore Luke's hot and red cheeks to their original state, which can be regarded as relieving the latter.
"Archbishop, I ......" Luke noticed the change in the skin on his face, and was about to exclaim, but saw the archbishop show a kind and tolerant smile: "Don't take it to heart, my child! Failure is not terrible, your devout belief in the One God will definitely support you to grow stronger!" Luke only felt a warm heart, and a warm current surged through his body, and he instantly regained ninety percent of his strength, and nodded vigorously.
"Very good!" Winston III clapped his hands happily when he saw that both sides had gained: "Then let's enjoy the song and dance performance happily together......!
"Wait!" a young and vigorous male voice suddenly shouted, the voice alone was stinging and tingling, with a strong sense of challenge.
Luo Ning thought that today's matter had come to a successful end, and he was about to enjoy the performance, but suddenly came to such a show, and suddenly lost his temper, and complained in a low voice: "Hey! The girls waiting at the gate of the palace are really unlucky! Who is this, and let people eat and watch the show!"
Neo smiled: "Who knows! I guess it was a young guy from who was jealous and took this opportunity to propose a duel......!
Luo Ning thought that Neo was joking, but when he looked up, he really saw a young warrior with short gray hair and silver scale armor coming out of the crowd, holding a long sword in his hand, and walked towards the two of them angrily.
"Bang!" As they approached the two, the gray-haired warrior suddenly pulled off the scabbard at his waist and threw it in front of Neo. In the customs and culture of Morrowind, both the sword and the scabbard are symbols of the dignity and honor of the warrior! A warrior throws the scabbard at someone in public, this action symbolizes: gambling on the dignity of the warrior and proposing a duel to the opponent! In this case, the person who is thrown to the scabbard, such as Neo, whose face is black, must build the scabbard to accept the duel request, otherwise it is equivalent to hitting all the warriors in the face. You can guess how miserable the consequences are if you think about it with your nostrils.
Seeing Neo's stunned expression of petrification on the spot, Luo Ning couldn't help but poke him in the chest with his elbow: "Hehe, hey, hey, hey, hey,
He originally wanted to make fun of Neo, but it was okay not to do this action, but as soon as he did this, the gray-haired warrior immediately exploded: "Neo Gaiman, keep me away from Miss Wenrui! What kind of man is my mother-in-law, hurry up and accept the duel! In order to save Miss Roseni from the clutches, I must give you some color today!"
"Huh?"
"What?"
This can surprise Ronin and Neo at the same time. Ronin took a closer look, and then he realized the clue: every time the gray-haired soldier looked at Neo, his eyes were full of anger, and he wanted to tear the boy to the ground in half, but when he turned his eyes to himself, his eyes became extremely gentle, for fear that the fierce gaze would scare "Miss Rosenie Winray".
Neo thought of himself who was fascinated by Luo Ning's skin, and tried to smile, his expression was wonderful: "Alas! Another guy with eyes and no beads! As a person who has come over, I really sympathize with him!"
With that, he picked up the scabbard and threw it back to the gray-haired warrior, roughly estimated for a moment, and pulled out the black remnant sword: "Come on, let's fight quickly! We don't need any magic shields, I can solve you with three swords!"
Seeing that the two of them were about to start fighting again, Luo Ning and the other guests stepped back one after another, leaving space for the two young men to be dozens of meters square. In the Morrowind Kingdom, which advocates bravery, a competition between young people like this is definitely an act that can be encouraged and even coaxed by everyone. Therefore, whether it is the past or the archbishop, they just laugh and do not speak, and retreat with everyone.
"Arrogant! Death!" the gray-haired warrior was furious, his sword erupting with fighting energy, and a low roar came out of his mouth.
"Yo roar, that's good! I'm still a high-level fighter! If it had been six months ago, Lao Tzu might have been a little scared. But now...... Hey, hey, look at the move!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two cyan whirlwinds surged under Neo's feet. The Wind Dance moves are activated instantly, increasing his speed to a terrifying state that is difficult to capture with the naked eye. On the sidelines, Luo Ning's eyes lit up. Although it was only a gesture of raising his hand, it was enough for him to make a judgment: Neo is really much more powerful now than he was half a year ago!
