After all, Anthony knew Roland better than Alberton Jr., and as he had a hunch, Roland let out a wild cry in high-speed flight, and the whole person turned into a hundred-foot-tall behemoth.

"What kind of spell is this?" Little Alberton was stunned, he came from a family of mages, but he had never seen such an exaggerated transformation spell.

"Korath Behemoth!" Anthony replied for Roland.

Transformed into a giant, Roland swung out Durandal, and this divine sword swept through the air along with the light energy sword energy, almost cutting off the dimensional killing field. Palatina, on the other side, looked horrified, and the scene in front of her was completely beyond her imagination. In the past, she could easily crush her opponent by using "Angel Descending", but Roland actually became more exaggerated than her, just one arm was bigger than the Astral Archangel, and the wild power was like a giant beast.

Barely suppressing the throbbing in her heart, Palatina hurriedly controlled the floating shield to block the light greatsword that swept through the air.

Boom! Durandal slashed at the shield as if the largest tennis racket had tapped a tiny coin, and the moment the sparks splashed, the Mithril Iris shield broke out of Palatina's control and split in half and flew into the distance.

Roland freed his left hand and grabbed her waist before she could react, and raised her cold gaze in front of her.

Her body was tightly clamped by her huge palms, and Palatina struggled to breathe, feeling like a rag doll being held in the hands of a naughty boy.

"Still not admitting defeat?" Roland asked Palatina telepathically.

The arrogant "knight princess" almost bit her lip, raised her head and glared at him stubbornly, her lips squirming hard, and spit out a string of obscure incantations. At the same time, the mace in her hand, called the "Daybreaking Star", suddenly emitted a strong red light.

Roland couldn't help but change his face when he saw this scene, and hurriedly raised his hand to cover it.

Rumble! The "Dawn Star" exploded violently, and the solar divine power contained in this Peiluo holy relic burst out, filling the dimensional killing field with blazing light, and the ground was dried up in an instant. The light blast swept through the air, destroying nearly the entire half-plane.

When the explosion subsided, Anthony and Alberton Jr., who were hiding in the corner with their heads in their hands, got up one after another and looked at the center of the field with trepidation.

The ground was blasted out of a crater like a crater, and Roland lay in the crater covered in bruises, his body having returned to its original form. Palatina knelt beside him, coughing up blood with her hands on the ground, her face as white as paper.

"Thank goodness you're all alive, don't fight anymore!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Anthony hurriedly announced the termination of the competition.

Palatina looked up at him with difficulty, her eyes were resolute, and her voice was hoarse: "I have a spare weapon, and I can fight!" ”

Little Alberton shook his head again and again: "If you continue to fight, this half-plane will collapse, you are not afraid of death, I, a witness, have not lived enough, so far today, is it good for you to draw?" ”

Palatine tried to protest, but was interrupted by a violent cough, and looked at Roland in pain, her burning eyes making her look a little crazy.

Roland sensed the provocation in her eyes, but did not respond to this irrational move. Paladina's decision to detonate the "Daybreaker Star" means that her hole cards have been exhausted, and Roland is confident that she will win if she continues to play, but given Paladina's stubborn personality and sensitive self-esteem, it is never wise to chase after her.

It is true that defeating Paladine can win the opportunity to borrow the "Angel's Horn" and make Durandal complete the final evolution, but the cost is too great, first, it will disgrace Paladina, and then form a grudge, and second, it will be a loss of gentlemanly manners, leaving a bad impression on Anthony and Alberton Jr., who are witnesses of the tournament, and the gains will outweigh the losses in the long run.

After weighing it, Roland made up his mind and gave Palatina a weak wry smile.

"If we continue to fight, I'm afraid we will die together, I'm very afraid of death, don't force me, okay?"

Palatina's gaze, which stared at him, suddenly softened, and she snorted with mixed emotions.

"Don't forget the 'angel horn', you really want to miss this opportunity?"

"It's a pity, but as long as you live, you still have a chance, right?" Roland asked with a smile.

Palatina's eyes flickered, and she hesitated. Roland's strength in this duel greatly exceeded her expectations, and she also knew that she would probably lose if she continued to fight, Roland's proposal for a truce was clearly to save face for her, she was very moved in her heart, and wanted to take the initiative to lend him the "Angel Horn" as a reward, but in a blink of an eye, a subtle thought occupied her heart, prompting her to change her original plan.

"It makes sense for you to say that, this competition is a tie, the 'Angel Horn' is here with me, you are welcome to come to me again to challenge, no matter when and where, I will be with you to the end!"

"You don't have a deep hatred, it's enough to fight once, why do you have to divide the winner or loser." Little Alberton couldn't understand Palatina's state of mind.

"You don't understand that, do you?" Anthony had a wicked smile on his face, "With this indefinite bet, the two of them have a reason to meet and fight often, and if they fight back and forth, they will have feelings?" This is called 'no fighting, no acquaintance'. ”

"Thank you for giving me an incentive to improve my strength." Roland approached Palatina, knelt on his knees, and raised his hand to press on her back to release the "holy healing".

"I will heal myself, I don't need you to be courteous!" Palatina whispered, but didn't really resist his kindness, biting her lower lip with mixed feelings, letting the warm current of healing pain envelop her through his palms.

……

On the fourth floor of the library of the University of Krasbourg, a pillar of teleportation suddenly rose in the silent and empty hall, and four figures appeared.

Roland returned to his reading room and put the "Dragon Palace Ring" into his storage bag, and the half-dimensional "Dimensional Killing Field" converged, and as for the damage caused by the battle just now, it will repair itself after a period of time.

Palatina's injuries have healed, and she has used the Rank 0 magic "magic trick" to clean up the dust and blood stains on her body, and she has turned back into a beautiful and elegant princess, humming an unknown song and pacing the hall, sometimes pulling out a book from the bookshelf and reading it curiously, looking in a good mood.
