Chapter 272: Trial
The Storm Demon Sword was raised diagonally overhead, blocking the four shields that fell head-on. Several groups of fighting qi collided violently and exploded, creating a circle of Luo Ning's slightly gray qi waves. Without waiting for the long sword behind him to approach, his shoulders suddenly shook, and he gently and skillfully removed the strength of the shield, sending these people to the sword behind him. And he himself was in a state of vindictiveness, his body became as hard as a steel plate, and he rubbed himself into the arms of a knight, and "thud knocked him away."
As a result, the encirclement created by the knights was suddenly broken, and except for the knight who was knocked to pieces, the rest of the people had to turn their backs to Luo Ning to greet their comrades-in-arms Sword and Shield. The two groups of knights were not slow to react, and they both stopped their bodies in time. However, it is not enough to be able to parry, the real danger lies behind!
Luo Ning's hand holding the sword suddenly trembled with a terrifying frequency that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and a triangular blade with a pale cyan light swept in front of him, swaying countless petal-shaped turquoise light chips. The flying light chips are agile and agile like schools of fish, scattering and flying in mid-air, interweaving a fan-shaped blue shadow. After the blue shadow took shape, it spread into a raging and tyrannical magical storm at an astonishing speed, sweeping all the knights into the air together.
"There's no tacit understanding! Okay, call it a day!" Luo Ning didn't look back at the knights, because he had enough confidence in the "Fenghua Slash" that he learned from the Storm Demon Sword, and believed that if he slashed this sword, no one would be able to stand up and compete with it.
He nodded to Princess Lena, who immediately understood, took out the last gold brooch in the crystal case, and walked over to a knight who was sitting on the ground with his stomach in his hands not far away. The latter hurriedly stood up, his eyes full of surprise that could not be concealed.
"Congratulations, you've earned the last qualification to stay in the Violet Order!, trust me, you won't regret this result!"
At this point, all the gold brooches have been delivered.
However, not all knights were convinced. Not all of them want to leave, either. One of the knights, with a flaxen pigtail on the back of his head, protested angrily: "Wait a minute, Your Highness the Princess, I am not convinced!"
Princess Lena glanced at him, as if she didn't want to talk nonsense: "Speak!"
The knight pointed to a person not far away who had been qualified to survive: "Willy and I are both high-level warriors. Although we were both defeated by Mr. Campbell, I was 100% sure: even if I didn't use weapons, that kid wouldn't be able to beat me! Why should he be selected and I would be eliminated? Could it be that the princess's so-called survival of the fittest was just a joke?" The young knight he pointed at turned red when he heard this, but he did not defend himself. Obviously, what is said is true.
Princess Lena's face was like frost, and she glanced at Luo Ning.
Luo Ning sighed secretly, and in the end, he still had to sing blackface by himself. He approached the knight who questioned Lena with a straight face: "It's up to me to decide which is stronger or weaker! If you're not convinced, you can! As long as you can beat me, I'll make an exception and let you stay! Otherwise, get out of here, otherwise don't blame my magic sword for being ruthless!"
His words were quite unreasonable, but he could choke everyone speechless. Without waiting for Princess Lena's orders, the eliminated knights took the initiative to leave. Except for Luo Ning and his party, only the thirteen recognized knights left near the gladiatorial arena soon existed.
Seeing that most of these people were beaten to the point that their noses were blue and their faces were swollen and covered with color, and even a few of them couldn't even stand steadily, she frowned, and leaned into Luo Ning's ear and whispered: "Luo Ning, I want to ask you to do me another favor, cure them and then take them to the middle of the gladiatorial arena!"
Luo Ning was also curious about how Lena would arrange these thirteen knights, and smiled happily: "Willing to serve, Your Highness the Princess!"
Although he had already seen Luo Ning's healing magic that was comparable to that of a priest of the Divine Cult just now, it was a completely different feeling to see it and experience its power firsthand at this time, and for this young new "Knight Chief", his curiosity added a little awe and admiration.
When he was young, thirteen knights, including Raels, came to Princess Lena, still fanning out around Raels as before. Xu regained his understanding of his own strength after the battle just now, and the haughty complacency hidden in the eyes of the thirteen people was long gone, replaced by Princess Lena. and the heartfelt awe of the knight chief Ronin.
Lena looked at these details in her eyes, and she had a little more hope for these thirteen people. What she fears most is not that this group of knights is not strong, but that they have a bad personality and are fundamentally hopeless. Now that they have repented in less than half a day, they are naturally very satisfied.
"The Violet Knights used to have fifty-one people, but now there are only thirteen left! Do you know why I made this decision?"
The twelve knights looked at each other, and they all saw their doubts in the eyes of everyone on the side.
"I'm sure most people, including you, will think I'm crazy when they hear about this, and they will laugh at me and say: Lena Winston is a complete idiot! As soon as she became the leader of the Violet Knights, she drove out most of the knights inside. She is clearly cutting off her arm, and she is destroying the Violet Knights!"
These words struck the hearts of all thirteen knights. It's just that they all have a little bit of knowledge, and they know that Princess Lena has something to say, so they forcibly suppressed the emotions in their chests and didn't have a seizure.
Sure enough, Princess Lena continued: "But I must tell you: the opposite is true! Remember what Knight Campbell just said? Superior, inferior! I left you thirteen just to get a truly powerful knighthood, not the kind of ordinary goods who follow my father's ass and rub credit! I, Lena Winston, only need the strongest knights! And I promise you: you will also be the strongest knights! Hundreds of thousands of years later, the Violet Knights will become famous in the annals of the continent and become a legend like the Red Wolf Mercenary Regiment. All of you'll have their names sung by future generations!, so now, if you want to be the hero of this legend, salute me and swear allegiance!"
Princess Lena's words were not in high tone, but she said every word with extraordinary decisiveness, as if she was saying a trivial matter that should be established. The thirteen knights all clenched their fists tightly and gritted their teeth to suppress the excitement in their hearts. When Princess Lina's words fell, the thirteen of them knelt on one knee neatly, their palms pressed against the violet pattern on their chests, and declared their loyalty with an oath.
