Chapter 49: A Sword Duel

Paul couldn't compete with Zakir, so he immediately turned his head to look at Lear and asked, "Great Count Lear, Lear's heart moved, and he was about to turn his head, but the voice of the sword came from his ears: "Don't move, this barbarian boy's grandfather is watching you, I didn't pay attention to him just now, this must be his grandfather's arrangement to provoke you." ”

Lear was furious.

I have endured it again and again, and the original plan was nothing more than to suppress it, so that you know who is the master of Port Lear, and it is nothing more than that I am unwilling to let Port Lear fall into turmoil and chaos, and I am not willing to poison him. But you have hit me three times and twice, you want to see me make a fool of me, and force me to lose my prestige in Port Lear, what enmity do I have with you that deserves you to do this to me? Very good, I originally wanted to fight you with a scheming, but now I have changed my mind, Winston, you forced me!"

A murderous moment in Lear's eyes!

"Okay, I agree to the sword competition, but I think the sword competition is a moment for men to show their strength and wisdom, and it would be naΓ―ve to just practice the sword. Let's compare with real swords, and make a life-and-death document before comparing swords!"

The house was full of surprise.

Zakir hurriedly walked up to Lear and said, "Your Excellency, you don't need to worry about this mad dog. One of your toes is more important than his life. ”

Lear laughed and said, "You have an overestimate of him." ”

Paul secretly glanced at Baron Winston and saw his grandfather nodding, so he nodded fiercely: "Okay, I'll duel with you with a real sword!"

Lear was confident, and he could see at a glance that Zakir was just relying on the good of his family, and someone could only become a mid-level warrior by having to worry about food and clothing, and he was actually a flower in a greenhouse. Not to mention killing, I'm afraid I haven't even seen a dead person a few times.

Even if Zakir stopped it, it was too late, so he could only stand silently behind Lear.

His actions set off a chain reaction, and the young people had to start switching sides.

Most of the young people stood behind Lear, except for a few young people close to the Winston family.

Although these people are young, they are not stupid, one is the Earl of Lear, who has the support of the general, the other is struggling for the title of lord, and the grandfather is just a baron without a fief, and everyone knows which side to choose.

Paul has a feeling of being abandoned by his friends, and no matter what the outcome of this battle is, he will be isolated by his former friends, and his face is flushed with anger and he wants to kill Lear.

Some elders had to come out as peacemakers to persuade the two people, but the two people were determined to duel with real swords, and those people had to let the two people sign the life and death documents, and then ask the senior swordsman to be the referee - once one party's life is in danger, the senior swordsman must intervene to block it.

High-ranking swordsmen are scarce and powerful in the Empire, and as long as they promise to serve the royal family for a lifetime, they can get a fief and become a hereditary baron or even a viscount. However, ninety-nine percent of the high-level swordsmen in the Homan Empire were inheritance knights trained by nobles or the royal family themselves, and they generally had the title of official baron, and a few were viscounts.

Each of the high-ranking swordsmen of the Lear family owned more than ten medium-sized estates or more than a hundred small estates, and all the proceeds of these estates went to the high-ranking swordsmen, and the Earl of Lear paid them a salary and a variety of luxuries every year. Upon the death of a High Swordsman, Earl Lear will reclaim most of the estate, but must give a medium estate to the descendants of the High Swordsman until his bloodline is broken.

At least the earls can afford to raise many high-ranking swordsmen, and some of the knights of the barons, after becoming high-level swordsmen, they have to sell the high-level swordsmen to the big nobles in disguise, or let them defect to the royal family. Ordinary barons simply can't afford to raise high-level swordsmen.

The style of the castle hall of Lear is very common, with a large living room in front of it, with an upward staircase on each side and a platform above. The hall is large enough to accommodate two people in battle.

Guests poured around and on the second-floor terrace, giving way to the middle.

Lear wields a well-sorgied sword from Audrena and poses in a spear stance to protect his torso.

No one expected that Paul would raise his long sword flat, the tip of the sword pointed directly at Lear, and use a very impolite forcing sword.

Zakir immediately shouted, "Shame on you!" and the crowd behind him heckled.

Lear smiled contemptuously and said, "You are not worthy to be my opponent, maggot droppings!"

Paul suppressed his anger and walked straight for Lear. He is at least a foot taller than Lear and has long arms, so he has a big advantage with his sword.

Lear took a sideways step to the right as he slashed down at Paul's longsword. For safety, he attacked Paul's weak sword with his weak sword body, keeping his distance.

Paul, with great strength, continued to stab forward, but he was never comparable, and when Lear's slash hit his longsword, his longsword was easily pressed down and his hands went numb.

Lear snorted softly, thinking that this Paul was an embroidered pillow with about the same strength as himself, so he took advantage of the situation and slashed Paul's hand.

Paul immediately stepped back, and at the same time pushed up hard to block Lear's sword. However, Lear has been abused by the sword puppet in every way, and has a strong sense of battle, and uses Paul's strength to raise his long sword and turn it into a bull's horn and carry out an assault.

Paul was shocked, as a person who often practiced swordsman-level powerhouses, he suddenly had a strange feeling, the opponent was very much like a swordsman-level powerhouse who didn't need to fight.

Not only was he surprised, but the people around him, Catherine and Susan, who knew him best, and even Lear himself.

At this time, he realized that it was not that Paul was too weak, but that his strength had increased significantly, both in terms of eyesight and hearing.

"Is the troll potion so powerful? Looks like I've got a baby!"

Thinking that the troll potion was working, Lear suddenly gained confidence and launched a pursuit.

Due to the long period of instruction from the Sword Master-level sword puppet, his swordsmanship perfectly interprets the two characteristics of accuracy and agility.

Accuracy, so that he can hit the weakest part of the enemy's defense without deviation, and at the same time, he can resist the enemy's strongest attack without deviation, and the biggest effect of accuracy is to reduce loopholes and flaws.

Agility allows him to choose the right sword moves to attack and defend, and choose the right follow-up sword moves and changes, so that he can adapt to changes at his fingertips.

Paul even felt a sense of suffocation when he played with his accuracy and agility, because in his view, Lear's longsword was simply a net without weaknesses, retreating could entangle his attack, and advance could trap his hands and feet, so that his sword could be suppressed within a fixed range.

Ten seconds passed, twenty seconds passed, and a minute passed...... The people around were surprised to find that Lear, who seemed to be skinny, unexpectedly burst out with terrifying power, pressing Paul and beating him, gradually forcing Paul into a corner.

"Brother Lear, come on, Brother Lear, come on, Brother Lear......" Before Ness could finish shouting, Lady Elena covered her mouth and told her not to disturb the sword.

Seeing that he was about to be cornered, Paul yelled and prepared to stab Lear in the left chest at the cost of his right arm.

Lear immediately retreated.

Believing that he had found a way to restrain him, Paul began to use the "remnant sword". As the name suggests, it is to inflict greater damage on the enemy at the cost of one's own disability, which is safer than the death sword that dies at the same time.
