590 A real challenge
"Point the golden sword."
Looking at the direction of the fallen archer, Yun Jingbu on the sidelines sighed in a low voice: "The sword style that specializes in attacking the enemy's vital parts was actually used by him in such a place...... Is there a sword move in this world that that that person can't do? ”
"It was so easy to change the trajectory of the sword, and it was at that critical moment just now...... Hey, this guy is as strong as the legend says. Phoenix Tianwang, who was holding his arms, replied with a smile: "It's a pity that we are enemies now, otherwise...... We might be able to have a good conversation. ”
"Looks like you've all noticed that sword." The red-haired demon resurrected and looked at the figure of the man standing in the center of the arena with a serious expression: "If it's our turn again...... Which of you has the confidence to challenge his swordsmanship? ”
"Don't worry, I said that we should focus on big things." Phoenix Tianwang interrupted his president's proposal again: "Besides, ......"
"The one who fell there didn't seem to have given up yet."
Whoosh –
The imperceptible sound of breaking the air appeared in everyone's ears again, and then flew into the distance against the already rugged ground of the fighting arena, Duan Qing, who dodged a step, then looked in the direction where the arrow came from, and unexpectedly found the figure of the archer getting up again: "I, I'm not dead yet......"
"Oh, of course you're not dead." Duan Qing smiled and spread out his hands: "If a hammer can knock you to death, you will not be moved to the Internet by the paparazzi as a new master, but will become the laughing stock of everyone." ”
“…… That's right. ”
The squeaky bowstring tightened again sounded across from Duan Qing, the sound caused by the archer named Hundred Steps Peerless when he slowly drew his bow: "So...... Want to fight the second round? ”
"Always by side." Duan Qing withdrew his weapon: "If you don't care about your injuries......"
"Stop."
A shout suddenly sounded above the stands where the city lord was, and at the same time interrupted the new round of battles that were about to begin, only this time it was not Reiner, who was presiding over this throne war, but the mysterious player who had proposed to participate in the war: "Come back, Mushuang." ”
“……”
"You're wounded in your right hand, and there's no point in this fight."
Looking at the figure who still pulled up the bowstring and did not move, the mysterious man with the hood covering his face continued: "Even if you withdraw from the battle now, no one will blame you. ”
"Are you right, Lord Joel?" He turned around and whispered to Old Joel, who was also silent on the side, with a smile: "I believe in your eyes...... We have exceeded our mandate. ”
"What exactly do you want to do?" Old Joel asked in a trembling voice, "Still with my apprentice......"
"We're friends, so of course we won't hurt him." The man smiled and replied, "Besides...... Adventurers are tasked with taking risks, and these challenges are nothing compared to the tasks you're tasked with, are they? ”
"You...... Do you know ......"
"Employers sometimes look into the client's identity, and that's not a big deal."
Jumping off the arena, the hooded man walked to the archer in a few steps, pulled up the other party's body, and walked in the direction of the gate: "What's more, we are the most professional people, and we haven't investigated the relationship between you......"
"We're not going to take it lightly."
Turning around and giving Duan Qing a strange look, the man and the hundred steps Wushuang walked out of the gate like this, leaving only two backs that were not blocked, and the low sound of discussion sounded again in the field, and several throne owners sitting on the upper throne then aimed their cannons in the direction where Old Joel was, as if they were planning to raise a new round of questions about the previous person's remarks, and Duan Qing, the other duelist who was left behind, gradually retracted his eyes from that place: "Frog Demon Sect ......"
"It's that guy, sir." A soft whisper then sounded in his ears, and at the same time appeared, the figure of the maid belonging to Ning Lan in the secret language: "When Ning Lan was fighting in the city before, ......"
"I know, that's why it sounds familiar." Duan Qing waved his hand to interrupt the other party's words: "Although it didn't have the effect I wanted...... But they are the ones we are looking for. ”
"Restorationists?" The whisper who gradually came over frowned and said, "Can they already appear in such a place with such a swagger?" ”
"God knows exactly what kind of means they have, but what is certain is ...... Their energy in this city is probably much greater than we imagined. ”
Looking at Old Joel, who was still under siege on the high platform, Duan Qing said in a low voice: "Since you said that there is no problem with the second in the world, then the possibility of the existence of several big guilds can almost be ruled out, so the only possibility left is ...... They are an independent organization. ”
"Or rather, the guild." Whispering smiled and replied, "A secret player guild. ”
"There is no Adventurer Guild in Liberty City, and it should be easy to form an unregistered Adventure Party." Secret Whisper Ning Lan also analyzed in a low voice: "But if they really have such a big influence, their numbers and strength will definitely not be small......
"These bigwigs in Freedom City must know something, and the city lord just now didn't come forward to stop them...... This already illustrates a lot. Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "Maybe they haven't concealed it too much, they have just been floating under the cover of some kind of mask, only in this way can they act in a grand manner and not be discovered by others...... Not. ”
"Congratulations, Envoy."
In the scene where several people were silent at the same time, the heavily armored Reiner appeared behind everyone again, and then with a clanging collision sound, he made a warrior's salute to Duan Qing: "Due to the opponent's unauthorized departure, the victory of this game will be automatically won by you......"
“…… Take the liberty of asking one thing. Duan Qing bowed and returned the salute, and then asked with a serious face, "You...... Do you know the two people who just left? ”
"No, I don't know them."
Glancing in the direction of the gate, Reiner replied very dryly, "I'm sorry. ”
“…… Is it? Duan Qing pressed his eyebrows: "Then...... That is, the lord of the city knows them? ”
“……”
The Silver and Black Knight did not answer immediately this time, but fell into silence for a while, and it was not until the dispute between Old Joel and Eduan above was once again suppressed by the city lord's intimidation that he said his answer lightly: "Whether the city lord knows those two adventurers is not something that should be known below, so this question about you...... I can't answer it below. ”
"Oh?"
Glancing at the other party deeply, Duan Qing's doubts became even more serious: "Without the invitation of the City Lord, it is difficult to enter this arena easily, right?" Even if you don't know that person, at least you should know what kind of identity those two people got into......"
"About that...... As the envoy had heard before, they had come in with Joel as his retainers. Reiner replied in a deep voice, "Joel himself has confirmed this matter, but now he doesn't seem to be responsible for what those two people just did, so the only thing he can know now is that they are not part of the second adventure party in the world......
"Needless to say, Reiner."
The city lord's clear voice suddenly interjected into the conversation between the two men, and at the same time, it also suppressed all of Reiner's next words: "What is more important now is ...... Your Excellency, do you want to continue fighting? ”
"Of course, the game goes on." Duan Qing paused, and then saluted to the high city lord: "I still have strength." ”
That is to say...... Do you want to continue to accept the challenge of everyone present? ”
"Absolutely, sir." Looking at the old Joel, who had died down and had no spirit, Duan Qing replied loudly: "And ......"
"The rest...... There shouldn't be a few left, right? ”
The empty arena once again became much more silent with Duan Qing's words, and it seemed that many people present were also aware of a problem that was gradually beginning to surface, because with the victory of Duan Qing's team again and again, there were fewer and fewer candidates who were still qualified to challenge: "...... Finnya. ”
"Yes."
In the whisper of the city lord, the female berserker sitting in the corner stood up: "Lord the city lord. ”
"Are you interested...... Let's learn a lesson? ”
“…… Of course I was interested. ”
In the uproar that gradually rose in the arena, Fenya, who was carrying a two-handed big sword on her back, showed a unique smile: "But...... Fenya will only fight strong opponents, and enemies who are too weak will not attract my attention. ”
"Among the candidates for the Twelve Thrones, it seems that only you and Tie Lin have not yet played." The voice of the city lord then sounded slowly, "Isn't this enough to prove their strength? ”
"Hmph, don't mention it." The female warrior with muscles all over her body let out a disdainful snort: "Either you are careless about the enemy, or you are looking for a substitute for the dead ghost to do something hastily...... If this can be called a contest, all the battles just now...... I can do it easily with one hand. ”
“…… Hmph, hehe, hahahaha! ”
The city lord on the high platform gradually let out a burst of laughter, and finally lowered his head again: "It seems that the trial of our free city is not only not over, but has just begun...... Your Excellency, is there anything you would like to say? ”
"I have a %#@想要说, but for the sake of harmony between the two countries......"
Looking at the figure of the wild female warrior with a wry smile, Duan Qing sighed and shook his head: "That...... Lord Castle, we've fought so many times now, even if we don't consider the injuries and losses of our members, we should at least give us some time to rest, right? ”
"Are you going to use delaying tactics...... Hmph, how long do you want to take a break? ”
"How's tomorrow? We'll fight again tomorrow......"
"Nope."
The black shadow on the high platform waved his hand, and then pointed to the outside of the fighting arena: "There are countless rats outside who want to harass my city, and the tide is about to run out, and we don't have much time left, so ...... The War for the Throne is ending today. ”
So what does that ebb mean......
His gaze turned around on the other throne holders who also showed surprise, and Duan Qing exchanged glances with Yu Yuyu: "Since the City Lord thinks so......"
He took a deep breath: "Why don't we finish the rest of the battle together?" ”
“…… That's the most interesting thing I've heard today. ”
The city lord on the high platform showed an interested tone: "What do you want to say, Your Excellency the Special Envoy?" ”
"Stark, Huscal, Phillips......" Duan Qing's voice sounded slowly: "Plus Eduane, Joel, Garo...... Except for Shanaiduo, who was not present, and the pair of brothers who were ousted, there are not many throne owners on the field, and those who have not yet appeared should be the barbarian Fenya, the captain Tielin, and ......"
"Reiner, the Silver and Black Knight." He pointed to the heavily armored figure standing in front of him: "I'm not wrong, am I?" ”
“…… That's right. The voice of the Lord of the City then sounded leisurely: "The three strongest of the throne holders. ”
"Since time is running out, our side is full of remnants...... How about just letting them go up and duel with our Fool Adventure Band? ”
In the sound of the surrounding audience gasping in unison, Duan Qing smiled and spread his arms: "This throne war does not prohibit team battles, but as the defending side, I'm afraid that some of you will not accept our proposal to go together, so ......"
"Do you want to use such conditions as the last game to end this duel battle?" The city lord took Duan Qing's words, and then let out a louder laugh than before: "Okay! Very good! That's the real challenge! I admire your courage, Your Excellency...... No, adventurers! ”
"I appreciate your courage, boy." Tie Lin, who put down the flask, immediately stood up, and his wine-stained mouth gradually grinned: "But ......"
"This kind of proposal...... It's really unpleasant. ”
Rumble!
With the heavy sound of landing, the figure wearing an iron hook smashed to the ground in the center of the arena, and then in a piece of flying dust, he turned around and shouted at the stands: "What's the matter, female devil, don't you have the courage to respond to the provocation of these arrogant boys?" ”
"Of course...... No. ”
The murderous aura glowing with blood gradually appeared from the female warrior's body, reflecting her eyes into a blood-like bright red, and then with an incomparably fast phantom, she suddenly appeared on Duan Qing's other side: "You are despising me, despising the dignity of a berserker, Mo Shangqingshan." ”
"I didn't mean that way, I just made an offer, although judging by the results...... This proposal seems to be very popular. Duan Qing, who was standing in front of the two leaders, wiped his cold sweat and smiled, and then turned to Reiner, who had not left beside him: "Then...... What about you? Would you like to come along? ”
"No need."
The eyes behind the heavy helmet glanced at Duan Qing, and then disappeared in front of Duan Qing as its owner left: "If you are lucky enough not to die......
"I will wait for you on it, and then give you the final judgment."
