Chapter 270 The King's Athletic Convention 1

Knights from all over the world fought each other in the name of the king, and each one was more heroic than the other. Among them, the most eye-catching is of course the King's Knights of the Guard, also known as the Lightning Knights. They were all dressed in lead-gray armor, with a large golden lightning bolt emblem on their chests, blue water streaks on their shoulders and waists, and capes as white as first snow. There were six of them, two of whom were always with the king, and the other four were allowed to play.

During their ten years as knights of the King's Guard, they were required to temporarily renounce their titles, titles, and fiefdoms, and live in the palace every day, revealing themselves in masks. The masks were custom-made by craftsmen and fit perfectly to the face, and the knights were required to collect the mask from the king at the time of their daily work and return it at rest. Such sacrifices will be rewarded after ten years, not to mention money, whether it is a noble class, a fief or other reward, and it will be recorded in the history books as an important person. These Lightning Knights are loyal first, martial arts second, and only the best are selected, and the elimination system continues during the ten years of service.

Compared to the Lightning Knight, the other contestants are slightly inferior, but they are also remarkable. No one is invincible, and there is always a restraint relationship with each other, so there is a lot of concern about how the Lightning Knight will be defeated and who will receive the award. Everyone knows that these lightning knights are the benchmarks, and defeating them means that their martial arts skills will be affirmed, so they are trying to trouble them one by one.

The long sword slashed through the air, and before one arc was finished, another arc suddenly appeared. This bizarre feint and change of move would make it difficult for the opponent to parry, but the lightning knight on the opposite side seemed to have expected it, blocking the sword with the half-moon gauntlet at the end of the hilt, and then pressing his wrist forward and placing the blade on the opponent's neck.

It means that he has won.

There were enthusiastic cheers from the stands, some nobles rose to applaud, some beautiful ladies threw flowers in their hands as rewards, and a little farther away erupted into cheerful whistles from the plebeian stands. It's already the Lightning Knights' six-game winning streak, and it seems that no one has been able to beat them yet. There has been a lot of speculation about the knight's identity, and there are various theories, but only between the king and the lightning knight knows what the truth is - and Shani is curious.

"I don't know. Feige replied, "The only way to find an answer is to defeat them and join them." But that still doesn't tell you who the other people are. ”

'It's not easy to beat them, these guys are obviously trained. A man on the left said aloud. Feige turned his head, it was a beautiful young lady who had just seen the fight and left a little unwell, and the empty seat was occupied by a man. He was short, with a pointed beard and slightly whitish sideburns. "Lord Feige, I have taken the liberty of interrupting your conversation with this beautiful lady, but it is my pleasure to communicate with you, and I have to be rude. ”

"You ......"

"Adenton, Nice Adenton, a knight. He smiled, but there was no smile in the corner of his eye. "Your Excellency, you can see that a body like mine is not a proper knight. ”

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

"I have been entrusted with a gift of friendship and sincerity to you, a piece of information: someone is going to cause trouble at the tournament. Ness said as he pulled a roll of paper from the pocket on the inside of his sleeve, unfolded it, and handed it to Feige.

"Even under the clear sky, the stars still shine, but the world is blind to the sun. Hmm, what does that mean?" Feige took the note and looked at it, then crumpled it up and threw it on the head of the Inner Court's intelligence advisor, Maxers. He then said to Nice, "I don't understand why you're looking for me, not that guy." ”

"Because Master Mercers can't solve the problem. Ness didn't panic at all, even when Intelligence Advisor Maxes saw the note and got up and walked this way. "My lord, I have received information that a powerful spellcaster wants to profess his faith in the arena, and knights will be difficult to match. The problems of the king or the kingdom are not what my master wants, so I have been sent to warn you that this man is also a god of magic, but he is not a believer in the goddess of truth and thunder. He will be very vulnerable in front of the real Thunder. ”

"And what is this man's name, what does he look like, where is he now, when will he appear?" Feige asked four times, and Ness shook his head, indicating that he was only passing the word, and did not know the details.

Feige could only thank Ness and then handed him over to the intelligence advisor Maxhers. "This is here to deliver a letter, don't interrogate. Find out what is going on, and if there is nothing wrong with registering, give him a bounty - if you don't have any money, I'll pay it. ”

Maxes smiled crookedly, "It's my job, and I have to thank you for your support of my work." Now there are too many strange sources, most of which are fake, so don't take it too seriously, which will affect the mood of watching the competitive conference. ”

"As long as everything goes well at the conference, nothing can affect the good mood. Fitch said to Nice: "I don't interfere in other people's work, so I hope you understand doing this." If what you told me does happen, then you can come to me later. ”

"Thank you, I have no other requirements. Ness bowed slightly to Fitch and Shanny, and then followed Maxes away. Maders didn't have time to investigate the informants one by one, so he handed Nice over to his men at the edge of the arena, and after a few words, he returned to the stands.

It didn't take long for this episode to be a horrific scene in the arena. Sir Sandor from the Grey Forest rode his horse to his opponent for his third win of the day, but the horse stepped into a pit and fell forward. The two horses collided head-on, their necks twisted at the same time. Sandor Knight's head slammed into his opponent's steel shield, and the deformed iron helmet seemed to squash his skull, and when he slammed to the ground, he couldn't move.

Blood flowed from under his helmet, becoming slower and slower as he breathed weaker and weaker. Several women cried out in the stands, after all, such a terrible scene did not exist in their lives. The king and queen stood up, and the others stood up, watching anxiously the situation in the field. The two priests of the Goddess rushed forward, and they raised the emblem of the Goddess, but they could not save Sir Sandor's life.

As the priest shook his head and sighed, the crying became louder, and some of them exclaimed, "What a wretched man!" The attendants on standby took a stretcher, shovel, and rope and entered the field, and were about to remove the body, clean up the horse's carcass, and restore the field, when a burly man in a gray cloth robe climbed over the guardrail with the help of a wooden staff in his hand, and went straight into the field. The three guards on the sidelines immediately stepped forward to try to stop him, but he flipped his wrist, and the three soldiers immediately threw down their weapons and crouched on the ground with their heads in their hands.

"Your Majesty, please witness the power of the Goddess. With a loud voice, the burly man raised his right arm, and a bright pillar of light rose from the ground and rushed into the sky. Then he pointed his thick wooden cane at the pool of blood in the center of the arena: "Bless it, let the vain dead be reborn!"

The pillar of light retracted, and a golden light shimmered over Sir Sandor and the two dead horses. In just three breaths, the two horses got back to their feet, and Sir Sandor regained his breath and stood up. Jazz frantically tore off his twisted and torn helmet, and a smashed face appeared in front of everyone, shards of bone sticking out like spikes. Some of the people in the stands were so frightened that they didn't see Sir Sando's face recover quickly, and after a few seconds he was like a normal person.

Andrew applauded, but frowned. The burly man took Sir Sandor by the shoulders, and the two men came under the stands as close friends. The guard lowered his spear and stopped them, but the man did not care, and said to the king, "Your Majesty, is the power of the goddess strong and hopeful?"

"Which goddess?" Feige's voice startled Andrew as well, and the word "yes" that had already come to his lips was blocked. Feige used spells to raise his voice in a manner similar to that of the burly man. He asked, "Who are you and whose pastor?"

"Feche St. Hall, as a saint, please show basic courtesy and do not interrupt the king. His voice was confident and powerful, and many people couldn't help but nod their heads in approval.

"If Your Majesty is not happy, you can punish me at the palace, or go home and beat me with a stick, it's your business!" Feiqi's words were a little vulgar, and many people couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the atmosphere began to become lively again. "What are your names, birthdays, beliefs, races, and genders, tell us as soon as you know!"

"I only have one name, Al, and the others are either unimportant or obvious. I have come to demonstrate the power of the Goddess, to regain faith and faith, to give encouragement and support to those who are willing to give their lives to defend their homeland, to eradicate evil, and to protect the long-term peace and stability of the United Kingdom of Hoya. ”

"Thank you for your blessings, the next time you say the goddess you are talking about, you should use the full name of the goddess of truth and thunder to show respect, every priest knows this. Feiqi said with a smile, "At the same time, thank you for the spell you cast, and I'm glad that there is such a good priest in the church of the Goddess of Truth and Thunder." Oh, you see, Sir Sandor is thanking you. ”

"The Goddess of Truth Thunder is dead, and a new Goddess is reborn from her legacy, whose brilliance brings the sparkle of the starry sky, so that the night and the light coexist and transform, until life and death are reversed!" Al bowed to Andrew: "I am willing to serve His Majesty the King and accept His Majesty's supervision, and I promise to openly and equally pass on the gifts of the Goddess to all people, so that everyone can feel her great warmth!"

"You can go to ......"

"Fitch St. Hall, why do you always interject rudely!" Al's voice thundered like thunder, with a terrifying force, and rushed straight at Fitch.

Feige gently shielded Shani behind him, and then faced the terrifying mana. Most of these mind-influencing spells were developed in the process of mimicking the might of powerful creatures, and still applied the emotion of fear in essence. Feige only needs to protect his soul with the power of his evil aura, and it will not be affected in the slightest.

He raised his hand to scratch his head, then patted the dust off it, sending El away with this nonchalant attitude. "You have a point, I'll try to interject as politely next time. Did you register with the cardinal of the Holy Three Castle before you tried to preach, because as far as I know, you did not come to me, and I am a sorcery advisor to the United Kingdom of Hoya, and I happen to be managing and coordinating this matter. ”

"I have shown the miracle of resurrection from the dead, which of you has such ability? Only my goddess ......"

"Allow me to interject politely: What is the name of your goddess?

"Messing around will only show your weakness and incompetence. My Goddess, known as Starlight Glimmer, walks through the stars in a purple unicorn, whose glittering golden power is visible to mortals in the night, and in the daytime it is reserved for believers and wise men. ”

Flicker? Feige thought of one of the "Goddess Shards" brought back from the Second World. The resurrection spell cast by this El is indeed a divine technique, and it feels very similar to that of the goddess of truth and thunder, but there are still subtle differences in the lineage, which can only be discovered by those who are particularly sensitive to spells.

There are two priests of the Goddess of Truth Thunder by El's side, who have neither saved Sir Thornor nor captured the difference in spell fluctuations, and have not reacted until now. Fitch was disappointed by their sluggishness, but also surprised by the efficiency of the "Flash". Has she already gained followers and is able to give divine magic? As soon as she makes a move, it is resurrection, how many such priests does she have?

"It's great that you saved people, and we thank you, but that doesn't mean you can ignore the rules and act arbitrarily. Feiqi's voice echoed through the room, and everyone could hear it clearly: "I allow you to go to the Holy Three Castle Patriarch first to ask for instructions, and then I can deal with this matter according to the instructions." Go and tell them the madness that the Goddess of Truth Thunder is dead!"

As soon as Feige finished speaking, the stands rang out with shouts of "Crazy! Crazy!" The pious Andrew clenched his fists, he would not allow anyone to tarnish the goddess's prestige with lies, but it seemed unfair to order the arrest or punishment of the man who had just saved the knight of the kingdom. After thinking about it, he also felt that Feiqi's cold treatment was the best. Yes, let him go to the Church, and the Inquisitor of the Sacred Heart will show him the truth!

"Why do you blind people choose to hide your head in the sand when you see the truth! The power of the true God has been displayed before you, this is far beyond the power of the old gods who have died, it is the power that can bring the dead back to life! You should be in awe and worship!"

"Demagoguery, trying to force the king and his pious people to convert!" Feige turned to Andrew: "Your Majesty, please also order this madman to be caught and handed over to the Sacred Heart Sect!"

The legal counsel, Count Matt, opened his mouth, and suddenly felt that this was a hot potato, and it would be better to put it in prison and hand it over to the legal administration than to throw it to the church as soon as possible. He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, what Lord Feiqi said is not wrong at all!"

"Hold your hands tied, or wait to be arrested. Andrew waved his arm: "Take him!"

"The power of a goddess is beyond mortals' comprehension!" Al thrust his staff into the ground and flicked his shoulders as his robe tossed into the air, revealing the fine golden chain mail underneath. The closest to El were the two priests of the goddess, who immediately held aloft their emblems and called on the goddess's thunder chains, ready to tie El's hands and feet. However, Al flung his robe into the face of one of the priests, and suddenly reached out and grabbed the other priest by the throat at an alarming speed.

"Faith in the god of death is in vain after all!" As he muttered the words, a golden four-pointed star tattooed emblem appeared at his tiger's mouth, emitting a bright light. The priest, whose throat he had choked, opened his mouth and could not make any sound, and his eyes rolled upwards before he passed out. Al, on the other hand, appeared stronger, and as soon as he turned around, he grabbed the other priest's neck through his robes.

The knight rushed forward, only to be knocked away by Sir Sandor by the shoulder. The two horses also galloped, constantly raising their hind hooves, or using their teeth, attacking the guards who tried to approach. There was chaos at one point, and Al stunned another priest. By looking at the Soul Fire, Feige noticed that the souls of the two priests had become weak, while Al had suddenly become stronger, as if the energy had shifted.

"Goddess's Mercy: Blind Emblem!" El raised his hands in the air, and a complex divine emblem leaped into the air. Everyone couldn't help but look at the emblem, and most of them immediately covered their eyes with their hands and exclaimed in pain, "I can't see it!"

Feige was also affected, and although he couldn't see anything, all the scenes in his field of vision were swirling and ghosted, and his brain felt a little dizzy. This guy's magic is really powerful!Fei Qi raised his arm, the magic matrix spun in the air, and a thick black cloud was summoned by him and flew towards the magic emblem that caused blindness.

"The sparkle of the goddess is unstoppable!" El raised his voice and chanted the magic rune, the blind emblem tearing through the black clouds and continuing to shine in the arena. The knights couldn't see the position of the El clearly, so they could only charge forward with their impressions. The cunning priest had long since moved out of the way and watched the knights crash into each other in embarrassment.

"Follow me. Feitch took Shanny's hand and walked over to the king and handed her over to Queen Carroll. "Your Majesty, the Iron Golem can kill him, but let the Golem protect me. I'm going to deal with him. ”

"You stay, let the golem go. ”

"I want to draw some attention to the Knights of Hell, and I want to see what else this priest is capable of. Feige tapped the back of Shanny's hand twice, then squinted his way through the crowd, jumped out of the stands, and walked delicately towards Al.

"Fitch St. Hale, Wizard of the Kingdom. What a waste it is that the Thunder of Truth has left in you the power of the saints. If you become a devotee of my goddess......"

"I have obtained all that I want from the Goddess of Truth and Thunder, and I will continue to guard this true Goddess. "The truth thunder is not there, then there is still thunder white. In the sort in Feiqi's mind, it was never flickering. "If you want to show your power to gain influence, then I'll give you a chance. Don't let the audience see clearly, remove that emblem, how about the two of us fight?"

"How do you judge victory or defeat?"

"The only one alive can get out of here. "I think there will be others after you who will try it, for the starlight twinkle, for personal glory, or for the thunder flame (alluding to the name of a few goddess shards)." Don't make such a mess, especially in front of the king. If I don't beat you to the point where you can only go to the cardinal, then won't I have to worry about never having peace every day?"

"Do you think I'm afraid of the cardinal's bishops? they're just a lot of people, and they're magical...... Hehe. ”

"A large number of people is also an advantage, what are you hehe. I can't scare people like you with numbers, so I have to use victory. How's that, cowardice or not?"

"Judging from the speech and performance of you, a saint, the truth thunders and dies unjustly. ”

Hearing this, Feige's face sank, and the anger in his heart was like a volcano about to erupt. He slowly pulled out the Pit Divine Sword, kissed it lightly on the emblem of the hilt, and then pressed it against his forehead. The sword is handed over to the left hand, the right hand is teasing the cat, the magic and magic are stirring at the same time, and the spell is ready to be launched.

Al frowned, reached to the sky, retrieved the blinding insignia, and pulled the staff from the ground. "I agree to your request, let's fight in the presence of the king!"

"To address His Majesty the King!" Fitch pointed forward, and the Earth Elemental Binding Spell was immediately fired. Red earth elemental tentacles emerged from the ground and gathered towards the El, and with a swing of his staff, a shuriken the size of a basin condensed by starlight shot at Feiqi.

"Get out of the way!" Xani exclaimed, and everyone sweated for Feige at the same time. Pierce had gone to gather the crossbowmen, and they were entering the meeting hall to wait for His Majesty's order to shoot El when they were assembled. However, no matter how fast they moved, they couldn't stop the giant spinning weapon for Feige.

"Break the law!" Fei Qi still learned this trick from Liz, the high priestess of the Tibetan tribe. The yellow light shone on the Pit Excalibur, and the Excalibur collided with the Starlight Shuriken, directly shattering Al's spell. At the same time, the Earth Elemental Binding tentacles climbed El's body, but were blocked by a layer of pinkish-purple light on his armor. The light seemed to be slippery, and the spell was either bounced off or immediately skewed, and it could not always restrain him.

Starlight shuriken turned into countless flickering dust and fell to the ground in front of Feiqi, and the two sides ended in a tie in the first round. Fitch squinted at the protective spell on El armor, and suddenly remembered Ness's reminder earlier. "He's very vulnerable in front of the real Thunder. "Maybe the power of lightning will be able to pierce his armor?

Calling for Thunder couldn't be easier for Feige, just swing the Pit Excalibur. However, it suddenly occurred to him that El was going to recruit followers for his goddess, and he would inevitably clash with the Truth Thunder Church. Could it be that his weakness could be the lightning of magic that all the priests of the Truth Thunder Church can cast?
