Two hundred and eighty-four The demeanor of the sword
The news that Arthur was going to duel with Stanford had spread all over the city, and this kind of thing was of course stimulating the hearts of the citizens, the people of the Temple, the people of the War College, that was a group of passionate people, for Arthur to dare to challenge the president of the Archer Guild, and had the support of young people.
It's just that...... What about after the support?
Reasonable people have discovered the problem behind this, even if they can't think of the battle at the top, they will feel sorry for Arthur, what a promising child.
The duel did not take place in the square, which was also the decision of the Count of Salaman, after all, the duel contained some other meanings.
Only a few dozen of Jerusalem's most powerful men were qualified to witness this significant battle.
Stanford arrived early, and he couldn't wait to shoot through Arthur's head, the bastard he hated so much that he gritted his teeth.
Outside the city hall, countless citizens are waiting for the result, almost nine out of ten people are in support of Arthur, and the orcs prefer to defeat the strong with the weak, but nine out of nine people think that Stanford will win this battle, you must know that Stanford is a silver light warrior, the branch president of the Archer Guild, and a strong person who shocked Jerusamo, and has done a lot of achievements before.
As a representative of the Rickett family, Avril was also qualified to attend, she may be the most confident in her heart, but she is also the most worried, no matter what miracle Arthur has performed, but the opponent is a silver-level archer.
And the strength is extraordinary, War Song is twice as effective against demon beasts with half the effort, but when it is used to attack the beast clan, it is half the effort, and the archer is considered the nemesis of the War Song Priest, even if it used to be.
Concern is chaotic, and Avril's palms are already full of sweat.
Shalaman also arrived, accompanied by Sara and a circle of nobles, chatting very happily, Shalaman has no actual public office, but this person is very open to both gods and consuls, and he is even more powerful in dìdū, and he can't afford to offend.
Stanford was dressed in shining silver-level armor, and behind his back was his Wind Splitting Bow, and it was with this bow that he fought all the way to the position of the Jerusamo Archer Chief, and today, he was going to use the Wind Splitter Bow in his hand to make himself one step further.
The silver-level armor can't directly see through the data, the silver-bright armor shines in the sun, and every minute passes, Stanford's momentum increases.
The opponent is afraid.
Looking at the towering clock, the time was almost up, and Thomas didn't seem to be in a hurry, but Arthur still hadn't arrived.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Stanford's mouth, young man, afraid of death, it is better to be afraid of death, although it is a pleasure to kill Arthur, but if he is afraid of a decisive battle, he will drag Thomas into the water together, a master who teaches an apprentice who is afraid of death, I am afraid it is not a good thing.
"Ahem, everyone, I don't think Priest Arthur will come, it's better to ......"
"President Stanford, don't worry, I ate too much in the morning and went to the toilet, so I rushed a little." Zou Liang walked in slowly.
Stanford looked at Arthur coldly, "This is your last meal, you should eat more." ”
"Okay, since the two duels have arrived, let's start officially, I won't be verbose about the rules, all the witnesses present are witnesses, this time it's a life-and-death fight."
Salamane said solemnly.
Beast duels, admitting defeat is rare.
Everyone came to the hall and quietly looked at the two people in the courtyard, and the atmosphere became stagnant for a moment, and there would be no luck when the real battle came.
Stanford didn't know how many competitors he had overturned all the way to this position, but of course he knew the truth of the overturned boat in the yīn ditch.
There are only five meters between the two, this distance is not long, but it is not short, enough for the archer to make a fast shè, but if shè misses, then what awaits him will also be a counterattack,...... Although he didn't know what kind of counterattack a Warsong priest could make.
To be honest, with the silver light armor to protect him, he really didn't feel any danger, and the defense level was too bad, but his forehead always jumped a little, which was not a good sign.
Boom...... The bell rang, and when the twelfth bell rang, it was the moment the duel began.
Boom...... Boom...... At this time, it was the last chance for the beast spirit to change, and Thomas couldn't help but sweat, how to dodge Stanford's attack, how to fight back?
Why hasn't the beast spirit changed?
Zou Liang just stood like this, seemingly defenseless.
Boom...... Boom...... With each knock on people's hearts, Stanford's gaze sharpened, and as the bell rang, all the distractions in his mind cleared, and when the crack was bowed in his hand, everything became different.
The opponent has only one result - death!
When the twelfth bell struck, everyone's breath was held.
I didn't see Stanford's technique clearly, and the three arrows were wound, all in one go, full of strings!
Buzzing~~~~~ bowstring shook violently, just in an instant, three silver glittering arrows shè out, not to mention that there was no armor to protect the body, even if there was, it was useless, it couldn't be stopped!
This is the pinnacle of the Silver Light Rank!
Completely got the fast, accurate, and ruthless jīng pith.
And at the moment when the bell rang, Zou Liang also moved, or he was ready to impact from the beginning.
People only felt that their eyes were sparkling, and Zou Liang had already rushed over.
At this time, the aftermath of the bell had just stopped.
The posture of the two seemed to freeze, Stanford's expression changed from a smile to a stiffness, and his voice seemed to come out of his throat, "Who the fuck...... Battle Song ...... Priest. ”
On the ground were broken arrows that had been cut into six pieces, piercing ...... With a snap, Stanford's head slipped, the incision flattened, and the blood stopped for a few seconds before erupting like a fountain.
Quick knife!
Zou Liang's hand flipped over, the bloody sword dissipated, his gaze collided with Shalaman, and there seemed to be a spark, and the Earl showed a strange smile and nodded playfully.
took the lead and applauded, followed by the other talents to react, applauding desperately, I have to say, this knife really made everyone a little overwhelmed, Avril was the most excited, she knew that the eldest brother would definitely be able to, but no one knew how strong it was.
Thomas and Sara both breathed a sigh of relief, but what happened immediately made everyone almost feel the urge to faint.
Instead of being angry, Salamane smiled and pulled Arthur away, looking like an old friend...... This turn of events made those who still had a little bit of his thoughts cool to the backbone, and Stanford's head looked particularly terrifying in the sun...... In the room of the head of the mission, the Count of Salaman, an old man and a young man stared at each other, and the atmosphere was tense, followed by each other and laughing.
"Boy, that knife is really good, the copper brand level can actually cut off the silver light level arrow, no wonder so many people are optimistic about you!" Count Salamane lost the old jiān cunning outside, and became extremely casual.
"Luck, luck, and the Earl,...... It should be said that it is the help of the elders! Zou Liang squinted at the old orc, one of the four elders of the apostle ranks, Thunder Tiger Shalaman!
"Originally, I didn't believe that William gave you such a high evaluation, but now it seems that he still underestimated you." Shalaman pulled out a cigar, and Zou Shenbao hurriedly lit it for him with his buttocks.
"Where, Lord William is a junior, you see, a Jerusamo has made me anxious, fortunately thanks to the help of the elders, otherwise I really don't know how to end."
"Don't be afraid, although I do have a mission this time, it doesn't matter to you."
Shalaman saw through Zou Shen's careful thinking at a glance.
Zou Liang snorted, he has been very busy recently, and he really can't stand the toss of the apostle ranks, especially the tasks they give him have to carry his life every time, which is too inconsistent with cost learning.
"It is the duty of every beast god believer to serve the Empire!"
As soon as he heard that it was okay, Zou Liang immediately bragged.
For such an interesting Bill, Shalaman also couldn't laugh or cry, but it was really hard to hate.
"Although this time it is settled, the governor's side is afraid that he will not give up, and our apostolic ranks should not interfere too much, you should pay attention to yourself."
"Hehe, I am dedicated to serving His Majesty the Pope, and I am not afraid of shadows!"
Zou Shen's stick is terrifying.
After asking some more about the last mission, Zou Liang left, this time he also fully experienced the pervasiveness of the apostolic ranks, and he also had a deeper understanding of the apostolic ranks, they actually served the entire empire, and they didn't care whether the pope or the consuls, of course, in terms of tendency, the apostolic ranks were still closer to the Holy See, and they mastered the nature of the other party, and Zou Liang also had the principle of contact.
"This kid is bold and careful, has extraordinary abilities, and is a genius." Salamane said as if talking to himself.
A clear figure walked out of the inner room, "You never know what he's thinking. ”
Gina forgot to glance at the direction of the door, and the person was no longer there.
"Little girl, everyone is gone, and I just came out, so I don't want to see him."
"Master, there are some things I haven't thought about yet, and I don't want to see him for the time being."
"You girl." Salamane took a puff on his cigar and shook his head, after all, he was also young, and he knew that some things could only be done on his own.
"His Majesty the Pope attaches great importance to the matter of the demon clan, and we must investigate it thoroughly."
"Your Majesty, why don't you let him get involved?" Gina was a little puzzled, and what was even more strange was that the Pope didn't care about it when it was clear that there was something wrong with the whole incident, which was not the Pope's style.
"Your Majesty has your own plans, so we won't ask too much." As an elder in the ranks of the apostles, Salamane didn't know what the pope was planning, and if he said that he was a talent, it didn't seem to be right, and he couldn't figure it out.
Gina nodded, the more she knew, the more she would find out what she didn't know.
"This kid is really an all-rounder, and the first reaction of ordinary people when they encounter an archer's attack at close range is to dodge, but in fact, at the beginning of the attack, when the arrow speed is the weakest, it is also the best time to attack, this kind of calm response is very much like a battle-hardened warrior."
Shalaman changed the subject, full of praise for the knife just now, unable to block or dodge.
Ji Na nodded, at the moment she didn't want to think about this person too much, she just wanted to complete the task!
