Chapter 9: A Duel to the Death?

I don't know how long it took, when Ye Chen and Sias, who had washed up, returned to the square in the center of the capital, they found that a stage had been set up here: Could it be that someone wanted to dance in this posture?

Looking around, taking out the mask prepared in advance from his inventory, Ye Chen explained to Sias, who was still a little confused beside him: "Sometimes, it's not a good thing to expose your appearance..."

"All for the sake of safety, let's put this mask on first! After all, it seems that most of the people gathered here are also wearing masks, so it seems that they don't want to be recognized, right? ”

Hearing this, he quickly put the demon mask handed over to his face, and then seemed to see something, so Sias pointed in the direction not far away: "Ye Chen, look over there!" ”

Don't think about it, and hurriedly set his eyes in the direction pointed by Sias, admiring the dressed girls and teenagers, Ye Chen couldn't help but swallow his saliva: This guy turned out to be a nobleman?

After all, aren't those two familiar figures the sisters and brothers who were cheated by themselves before? It's just that now they are following behind a dignified-looking middle-aged man, looking a little sullen.

After a while, among the many onlookers, he barely found a fairly free seat to sit down, and Ye Chen, who was sweating profusely, sighed secretly in his heart: I'm afraid that even the whole city is coming today, right?

You know, the area of this square is fully one-tenth of the capital, you can imagine how large the flow of people it can accommodate, but judging from the current situation, it is inevitable that there are some monks and less porridge.

"Welcome, I, Lord Castro, on behalf of Shadowstream City, would like to express my incomparably high respect to you and the noble beings present, it is you who make Shadowstream City flourish!"

As soon as the words fell, almost in a few seconds, the entire square was swept by the cheers of the masses, after all, in the eyes of these people who lived at the bottom all the year round, the boast of the city lord was their greatest honor.

"Today is a day worth celebrating, because it is the day of my daughter's upcoming marriage, and it is also the day of the 300th anniversary of the establishment of our Shadow City, and I hope that you can witness the birth of an era with your own eyes..."

"After my careful consideration, I decided to choose the best son-in-law through a duel, no matter what your background is, or what kind of world you come from, but only with real strength, you can have a chance..."

"The winner will be eligible to marry my precious daughter, Princess Hitanas, and will also receive a bride price and knighthood worth 100,000 gold coins, so I hope you can have a beautiful return..."

To be honest, in fact, it was the first time that Ye Chen knew the other party's name, and he couldn't help but be a little unresponsive for a while: the daughter of a city-state lord can be called a princess, is there a mistake?

In addition, there is another point.,I've always wanted to complain.,This hellish place is obviously a game world.,Why is the emperor called Ionia? Will the capital be called Shadow Stream? Is there still a capital city called Demacia?

However, just when Ye Chen was secretly complaining in his heart, he only heard a loud bang, and following the reputation, a rickety figure appeared in the center of the stage: This guy should be eighty years old, right?

Before everyone could react, the old man in a black robe first bowed to the lord and Hitanas who were watching quietly, and then said, "Under the immortal wizard Green, I hope to gain the favor of the princess..."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Chen, who was about to watch a good show below, couldn't help but pat Sias's shoulder beside him, and laughed softly: "You probably haven't heard of it, right?" In my world, there is a saying that old cows eat tender grass..."

"Old cows eat tender grass? What is the implicit meaning of this? Could it be that the old cow does not eat the fat and juicy young grass, and has to eat the dead grass that has no nutrients? ”

As soon as he heard this, Ye Chen, who was about to continue making jokes, was stunned for a moment, and even the paragraph that was about to be exported was stuffed back alive: Forget it... Cast pearls before swine!

At the same time, a majestic figure suddenly appeared on the stage that was being watched by everyone, and I saw that the other party was wearing silver armor and a jeweled sword at his waist, looking like a samurai...

"In the Lower Templar Li Jinsong, I hope to fight with the undead wizard to compete for this opportunity to marry Princess Hitanas, the strength is insufficient, so you can see the smile..."

Between the words, Li Jinsong, who was obviously from another world, did not hesitate at all, and quickly rushed towards the old man in the blink of an eye, and at the same time, the sword in his hand exuded a cold glow: Could this guy be from the same world as me?

But the so-called undead wizard is obviously not an easy character to deal with, I saw him very calmly tap the bottom of his scepter on the ground: "Good boy, you have guts, but unfortunately your strength is too weak..."

In an instant, before Li Jinsong could touch Green's body, his whole person was knocked out by an invisible shockwave, and skeletons appeared on the ground below him, which was very terrifying.

"If you're a light mage or a paladin, you might be able to pose a threat to me, but unfortunately, the gap between you and me seems to be a bit insurmountable..."

However, in the next few minutes, Li Jinsong, who was struggling, was basically torn alive by several rotting corpses under the gaze of everyone, and he didn't even have a chance to resist.

Seeing this, Ye Chen, who was watching the battle below, couldn't help frowning slightly, and listening to the violent cheers of the crowd around him, he couldn't help but ask, "Isn't this group of people any bit humane?" Can you laugh at this situation? ”

But Sias, who was beside him, shook his head after hearing this, and replied softly: "This is the law of duel?" The winner is king, the loser eats the dust, although I don't know how it is defined in your world, but here, this is the law of survival! ”

In the next second, almost with Li Jinsong's last groan, the blood-stained stage stopped: "If anyone wants to duel, they can come up and fight!" ”

"But my ugly words can be put in front, today the undead wizard Green is here to be the master, is determined to marry Princess Hitanas, to see who dares to snatch my partner!"

As soon as these words came out, the four of them were stunned, and then the already enthusiastic atmosphere was ignited in an instant like a powder keg filled with explosives...
