Chapter 270: Sword Fighting
"Roland, I have something to look for you. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info”
"What a coincidence, I have something to talk to you about."
"Hehe, that's a coincidence." Victoria suddenly retracted her smile and stabbed her sword with lightning speed.
Roland was taken aback and hurriedly dodged back.
"Your Highness, what are you doing here?"
"Don't be nervous, I'm just looking for you to learn swordsmanship!"
Victoria's words were light, and the "Pearl Sword" in her hand was not polite at all, and the cold light flashed with sword energy, and the move directly took Roland's vital point.
Roland was forced by her to retreat to the city wall, and had no choice but to pull out Durandal to block.
Boom! Two heavy swords collided in the air, bursting with dazzling sparks.
Roland's body shook off his recoil, and Victoria took a small leap back to gain a foothold.
This sword hard collision made Roland confirm that Viktoria's strength was slightly inferior to his own, probably between 24 and 25, which is very rare for sea elves, not to mention that Viktoria's agility attribute is obviously higher than him, thanks to his petite and delicate figure, swimming around like a dexterous fish, and his swordsmanship is so powerful and weird that he is tired of parrying, and it is difficult to find a chance to return it.
As one of the few powerhouses in the Northlands, a level 12 paladin and a level 5 pearl knight, Victoria will not be satisfied with just having the upper hand when she fights Roland, whose career level is less than half of her own. Suddenly, he made a false move, swung his sword and cut Roland's throat obliquely, and when he blocked it with his horizontal sword, he suddenly collected his sword and rushed forward, and deceived himself into the middle door.
Roland flew up and kicked it without thinking! However, Victoria was not forced back by his swift side kick, taking advantage of her size, ducking her head to avoid the kick, rolling forward to close Roland, and stabbing between his legs with a sword in a half-kneeling position.
No way! This is going to cut off the children and grandchildren! Too ruthless, right? Roland suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly leaped backwards, dodging this extremely vicious sword.
He was confident in his explosive jumping, but in his desperation, he ignored the environment and jumped backwards less than three feet before his back hit the wall.
Like a fierce little wild cat, Victoria flew up and pounced, her smooth and hard forehead hit Roland's abdomen so hard that he almost lost his breath, and slowly squatted down with his hands on his belly against the wall.
Victoria shook her slightly cloudy head, came to her senses and laughed at him: "I'm still a step ahead." ”
Roland snorted in pain, embarrassed to complain that she was only short enough to use that kind of strange trick to go straight to the bottom three roads, "I said...... Why are you so ruthless, all the moves are aimed at the point, it's too cruel, right? ”
“╭(╯^╰)╮!” Victoria snorted, "Whoever made you offend me, I can't swallow this breath without beating you!" ”
Roland stood up and looked at her curiously, "Did I offend you?" ”
"Don't remember all the good things you've done?" Victoria angrily confided in her resentment, "What kind of ghost idea did you give to Beowulf and Natasha, just force me to buy bonds, and make some grain futures contract to buy grain from the 'Harvest Ring', isn't this just digging into the corner of our Yangbo Chamber of Commerce?" ”
"Good question," Roland smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Kitland now has a shortage of six million pounds of food, which must be shipped within a month, can you Yangbo Chamber of Commerce solve it?" ”
"This ......"
"You have no food to sell, and you don't allow people to buy it elsewhere, do you want to force them to starve to death? How can there be a reason to do business like this! ”
Victoria was speechless. She was deeply dissatisfied with Roland's introduction of the "Harvest Ring" into the Northland grain supply market, because the entry of the Harvest Ring would inevitably compete with their Yangbo Chamber of Commerce, weaken the Kitlanders' dependence on the grain traders of Baigull Harbor, and threaten their monopoly position.
It's nothing to do monopoly business, but she can't say it in public, otherwise wouldn't her righteous reputation as a "pearl knight" seem very hypocritical?
Seeing that she was entangled and sullen, Roland smiled and persuaded her to open up: "I came up with this idea to help Beowulf and his wife solve their urgent needs, and I can't die without help, right?" In addition, your Yangbo Chamber of Commerce only does grain trade, and does not farm at home, in fact, there is no direct competition with the harvest ring, transporting grain from the New World to the Northland is transport, and transporting it from the Northland to other places is also transport, why hang yourself from a tree? In the future, there will be rich grain in the "Harvest Ring", which can be entrusted to you to be transported to the princely states of Hailan, Feizhen, and Baoshihua to sell, including the sea island countries that rely on grain imports, are you still afraid that there will be no business to do? ”
Victoria couldn't help but be thrilled when she heard his words, and hesitated: "But we don't know Valentina the Great Druid, will she cooperate with us?" ”
Roland smiled, patted Lori Knight's fragrant shoulder, and said confidently: "I will write a letter to Ms. Valentina to introduce you to each other, and I will not charge a commission." ”
"Hah! You're such a lovely boy. ”
"So would Your Highness the beautiful knight give me a kiss?"
"Okay, I'll reward you with a sword after that!"
"I won't play with you anymore, you're really black." Roland shook his hand stupidly, turned and walked down the mountain.
Victoria chased after him like a fawn and circled around him: "Hey, you make it clear to me! What is 'black belly'? ”
Roland put his hands in his trouser pockets and told her with a smile: "It looks majestic, beautiful, generous, and upright." ”
"Hee-hee, thank you for the compliment, but what? I know the point is 'but'! ”
"But the heart is super cunning, and he refuses to eat at all, which is called 'black belly', in the saying of my hometown, it is 'bright in the heart with a pig'."
"You're a pig! Stop, see if I don't beat you to a pig's head! ”
……
The two chased after each other down the hillside, and in front of them was the main city.
Victoria suddenly remembered something, grabbed Roland's sleeve and asked, "I almost forgot, just now you said that you had something to look for me?" ”
Roland nodded, "It's still a matter of bonds, I want to have an in-depth exchange with you." ”
Victoria hugged her head and lamented, "Spare me, I really can't buy more." ”
Roland couldn't help laughing: "Silly girl, I'm not Natasha's lobbyist, why did I force you to buy bonds, it's something else......"
"What the hell is going on!" Victoria was so curious that she forgot to warn him not to call herself a "silly girl" again.
Roland glanced up at the sky, "It's a long story, the sun is about to go down, I invite you to dinner, and talk while eating." ”
"Good! Which restaurant to go to? ”
"I heard that the tourist restaurant at the top of the Martyr's Tower is good, overlooking the whole city, and we can have a candlelit dinner there."
"Hey————?" Victoria listened with fascination, and a dreamy brilliance appeared in her bright eyes, "Sounds good, but unfortunately I've been to that restaurant, and there is no candlelight......"
"We didn't prepare it ourselves, so we bought some flowers and candles and brought them with us, there was a flower shop nearby that sold these." Roland said firmly.
Victoria blinked, and said with some suspicion, "It's the first time I've heard that flower shops also sell candles. ”
Roland gave her a blank look, "Because you are a young lady who doesn't know the fireworks of the world." (To be continued.) )
