Chapter 1692: Bazel's Challenge (II.)
Frank gave Bazel a deep look, his expression not angry. After making a stern warning, he turned to face Roland, his expression immediately softening.
"My friend, you must know that the Pausch can never overcome the impulsive nature of feelings, please do not pay attention to the stupid things that Bazel uttered on the spur of the moment, I can assure you that this 'noble barbarian' will be deeply reproached for his rudeness afterwards, and I cannot stop you from maintaining your dignity at this moment, but I beg you to stop it, it is good for both of you."
"Your Highness, please rest assured, I have my own measure." Roland replied softly.
At the same time that Frank was explaining the rules of the tournament, John "The Redhead" also appeared unusually active, opening a betting market in the audience and trying to encourage Palatina to bet on her two suitors.
At this time, Palatina had also regained her composure, thinking back on her experience of competing with Roland, and compared with Bazel's strength, she had a bottom in her heart. Hearing John Lauer's shouting behind him, he turned his head and looked at him coldly.
"Mr. Raul, who are you going to bet on?"
"I'm betting 1,000 gold dugga and betting on Roland to win." Red-haired John calmly made his bet.
Palatina couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, her face surprised: "I thought you would bet on Bazel to win." ”
John Lauer smiled strangely, an unusually bright light flashing from the depths of his pupils.
"Baron Bazel is my friend, and of course I want him to win, but that doesn't mean I'm stupid enough to bet blindly driven by my feelings."
"So you're more optimistic about Roland winning?" Palatina asked with interest.
John Raul shrugged his shoulders and replied nonchalantly: "I have limited information and can't tell who is stronger, but that doesn't stop me from developing the best betting strategy." It is because I support the Baron emotionally that I can only bet on his opponents, and if it turns out later that I was wrong, I will not lose money in exchange for happiness; If I had made the right bet, I would have felt sorry for Baron Bazel, but at least I would have won the money, which would have been a gain. ”
Palatina bit her lower lip and thought for a few seconds, then looked up at him deeply.
"No wonder people say you're a cunning gambler."
The red-haired John spread his hands and laughed, "I'm happy to accept this honor thanks to the compliment, but then again, you really don't want to measure your favor for two suitors by placing bets?" ”
"I'm sorry, I don't think emotions can be measured by bets." Palatina turned away from him, her eyes returning to the center stage of the theater.
"Roland, Bazel, good luck!"
Prince Frank loudly announced the start of the tournament.
Bazel was already impatiently waiting, and with a clatter in his hand, he picked up the Adamantite Barbed Chain and slashed his head and face at Roland.
Special weapons such as the "Barbed Chain" are difficult to use, and the slightest mistake can hurt themselves, and ordinary warriors tend to stay away from this kind of weapon, but it occupies a special position in the Imperial Army.
There are two ace knights in the Yashan Empire, one is the "Knights of Punishment" and the other is the "Knights of Breaking the Law", and the two knights correspond to the advanced profession of the same name. Palatina is the representative of the "Knight of Punishment", and the characteristics of the class are to borrow divine power from the heavenly realm, such as summoning "celestial creatures" to fight together, and temporarily transforming her flesh and blood into an angelic body, so as to greatly increase her combat power. Correspondingly, Bazel is a high-level "Spellbreaker Knight", whose professional characteristics are first of all to restrain the caster, as the level increases, his magic resistance and elemental resistance will increase simultaneously, and it is not painful to be bombarded by a fireball. In addition, the professional inheritance of the "Spellbreaker Knight" also includes two combat schools: one is the secret of breaking the enemy's weapon through ***; The second is the disarming stream, which is good at capturing the enemy's weapons in battle and forcing them to be captured. Magic-breaking knights who are good at "breaking the stream" often choose heavy weapons such as war hammers and tomahawks, which are easy to destroy the opponent's weapons and armor, and the knights who are good at "disarming the flow" have a favorite weapon is the barbed chain, which can easily seize the opponent's weapon with its special structure.
Bazel is a law-breaking knight who specializes in "disarming flow", and the +4 pure gold chain in his hand can be described as both rigid and soft, and with a random wave, it will be like a golden python roaring towards Roland.
Boom! Durandal ejected his scabbard, and Roland swung his sword in time to unslash the barbed chain, and then took a step forward, trying to shorten the distance between him and Bazel. The barbed chain is a soft weapon with a wide range of attacks, and it is incredibly powerful when slashed through wind and rain, but it also has a common problem that soft weapons cannot overcome - it is far away, but it cannot be approached, and once it is caught in a hand-to-hand fight, it becomes a burden that is "beyond the reach of the whip".
"You want to be beautiful!" Seeing Roland's intentions, Bazel smiled and burst out with a breath of true qi into the Pure Gold Thorn Chain in his palm. This chain full of spikes infused with true qi seemed to come to life in an instant, twisting his body in a posture that violated the law of inertia, and coldly entangled Durandal and locked it tightly.
"Leave it to me!" Bazel let out a cry of ecstasy and tugged at the barbed chain with both hands, trying to snatch the artifact heavy sword from Roland's palm.
"Roland is in trouble!" Little Alberton, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, saw that Roland had lost the upper hand, and couldn't help but worry about him, "The 'Breaking Knight' is more like a warrior monk than a priest, and has mastered the mystery of 'True Qi' through hard practice, and the explosion of True Qi in the battle can temporarily activate the chain in his hand, Roland is defenseless against this, and I am afraid that he will suffer a big loss." ”
Palatine was silent, but her eyes couldn't hide her concern for Roland.
Prince Frank frowned slightly, then smiled again, as if he did not think that Roland would be defeated so easily.
In the jousting ring, the duel between Roland and Bazel turned into a confrontation of pure strength, with both sides clutching their weapons and dragging them backwards, the Adamantite Barbed Chain stretched straight, creaking as if it could break at any moment.
Bazel suddenly roared, and his true qi burst out all around him, and his strength, which was already comparable to that of a dragon, was temporarily increased by a large amount under the stimulation of true qi, and he was instantly overwhelmed by Roland, forcing him to stagger and crash into himself.
"You're done!" Bazel let out a cry of victory, and slammed his free left hand into Roland's face. This giant-like strong man's fist was as big as a millstone, wearing iron gloves inlaid with spikes, and his innate divine power was fused with true qi, and this punch was enough to collapse the city wall, not to mention the flesh and blood.
The onlookers on the sidelines closed their eyes in unison, lest they see Roland's head bursting and flesh flying. Palatine and little Alberton didn't close their eyes, but they couldn't help but hold their breath.
"Here's the show!" Frank stroked his chin and smiled and muttered to himself.
