Chapter 12: Akehir

In the next conference, there seemed to be nothing to see, so after a casual stroll, Lu Ming stayed up until dark.

The convention had ended, and the candidates began to leave one after another, going to live in the Holy Capital and its nearby inns.

After Lu Ming left, he followed the route of the note given by Olibel and headed towards the center of the holy capital.

Approaching the center, he saw rows of splendid palaces, filled with all sorts of trading places, all of which had been converted from church palaces, and looked quite magnificent.

According to the instructions on the note, Lu Ming walked through the back street of a restaurant, where there was an underground entrance where the waste food was discarded, and Lu Ming walked into it.

It is lit by bright night pearls and has many quaint utensils inlaid on the walls.

Being able to spend so many decorations on a single passage, it seems that this is not an easy place to go together.

Continuing to walk, Lu Ming saw an open golden gate with colorful lights shining all around, and a banner on top.

"The venue for the private party of the 1st Goddess Selection Conference?"

Lu Ming looked up at the banner on the top and couldn't help but read it.

Then he thought for a moment, it seemed that this should be a place where the candidates would meet in private, and maybe they could exchange experiences and discuss the affairs of the conference.

But the entrance to this venue was set up so hidden that Lu Ming couldn't help but wonder if there were some unsightly things in it.

What's more, it was Olibel who called him over, I'm afraid Olibel didn't know what he had investigated from here.

In this regard, Lu Ming immediately took a step forward and entered the gate, and behind the gate, there was a long staircase going up.

After walking to the top of the stairs, the scenery in front of him changed, and he seemed to have come to a magnificent palace, and everywhere, whether it was furnished or built, it was like a royal palace, shining dazzlingly.

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes, and he didn't know where this was, after all, he came from underground, and it was difficult to tell which palace on the ground this was.

It seems that they deliberately concealed the location of the palace by making the entrance so hidden.

Lu Ming didn't think too much about it, and continued to want to walk inside, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he was stopped by two doormen:

"Please show your identification."

The two doormen were expressionless when they spoke, and one of them spread his hands in front of Lu Ming and asked him for his documents.

In this regard, Lu Ming couldn't help but hesitate, after all, he didn't know what the other party was asking for.

Just when he hesitated, I didn't know if he was too lucky, and suddenly an acquaintance walked behind him.

"Are you...... The referee who helped me?! ”

Lu Ming looked back, but saw the young and beautiful female knight he had met in the tenth stand.

It's the opponent of the cross-dresser at the beginning.

At this moment, after the young female knight saw him, her eyes lit up, and her face was a little surprised, as if she didn't expect Lu Ming to also participate in this private party.

"Oh, it's you......"

Seeing the appearance of this female knight, Lu Ming immediately recognized it.

After all, although this conference brought together almost all the beautiful women of the whole continent, the appearance of this female knight was also the highest among them, and after seeing it a few times, it was difficult for Lu Ming to forget it.

It's just that Lu Ming opened his mouth, and it was a little embarrassing that he didn't remember the other party's name.

To this, the knightess did not care to tell him:

"My name is Akhir, my lord, and thank you again for saving my dignity as a knight."

As she spoke, she was about to kneel down, but seeing this, Lu Ming hurriedly grabbed him, he didn't want to be too conspicuous in this kind of place.

After all, he came to investigate the situation.

Seeing Lu Ming's somewhat panicked look, the female knight named Axhir immediately glanced at him apologetically, as if she understood his idea of wanting to keep a low profile.

It was also at this time that several guards seemed to recognize Akhir's identity:

"You, you're the former Knight Captain of the Clares Kingdom, His Highness Axhir?!"

"Come in, come in!"

The two guards immediately stepped aside, and then for Lu Ming, they asked Akhir with some hesitation:

"This is ...... Is the judge of this tournament an adult? ”

They had obviously heard what Akhir had called Lu Ming just now, and their faces showed a hint of shock and disbelief in this.

It seems that the identity of the referee of the conference is much more powerful than the former knight chief of a kingdom.

In this regard, Axhir nodded slowly, and did not correct their titles, in fact, this is the chief referee, not an ordinary referee.

But since Lu Ming intended to hide his identity, Axhir did not expose this, but the identity of the referee still had to be told to them.

After all, without this identity, he may not be able to enter this venue.

In this regard, the two guards apologized in horror for stopping Lu Ming just now, and invited him in, without even verifying.

After all, it was the former knight chief of the Clares Kingdom who confirmed his identity as a referee, and they still believed in the knight of Akhir.

So, under the congratulations of the two of them, Lu Ming easily entered the palace.

And behind him is a small tail like Axhir.

In this regard, Lu Ming couldn't help but glance at the young and beautiful female knight and asked her:

"How's it going, have you passed today's tryout?"

He just asked casually, after all, with Axhir's strength, how could he not even pass the selection on the first day.

In this regard, Akhir also nodded, and said without surprise:

"Thanks to you, I won the next battle and entered tomorrow's competition."

After all, Akhir's strength is already close to that of the sage, and such strength is already at the upper level of the conference, and there is no surprise that he will be undefeated in the following games.

The biggest surprise was when she met the cross-dresser with the same strength as her in the first game, and I don't know how the two half-step sage knights met on the tenth selection platform.

However, he didn't have an in-depth understanding of Akhir at that time, and now that he remembered what the two guards called her before, Lu Ming couldn't help but sigh a little:

"I didn't expect that you used to be the knight chief of Claires, no wonder the original score didn't fall behind the famous cloud knight of the continent."

Thinking of this, Lu Ming felt a little incredible, he didn't expect that the female knight who was the opponent of that cross-dresser at the beginning turned out to be a former knight chief of the kingdom.

In response, Akehir smiled embarrassedly and told him:

"That was two years ago, when I was the head of Clares' Knights, and it was only a year."

"In such a short period of time, I am really worthy of such a high evaluation of me by the mainland."

"Later, in order to find a way to become stronger, I quit the Knights, and I am still traveling the continent alone."

It seems that Akhir is also a knight who is obsessed with cultivation level, so he doesn't even want to be the head of the knight order.

If she could be the head of the regiment for two more years and brush up her prestige, Lu Ming felt that she was afraid that in the previous competition, without his help, Akhir would already be able to win on her own.
