Chapter 574: Knight
"Alfred is a warrior of noble character and extraordinary martial arts! Although I am in opposition to him, I also respect his virtues, and please return his armor and sword to his family! ”
In front of everyone's eyes, Wu Ming is also a person who is about to become a knight, so naturally he can't deduct the opponent's blade like this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Instead, he handed over the Dragon's Heart Sword to the servant who came up with a straight face, and solemnly admonished.
Of course, it is also a dream to count on the dedication of these servants, but as soon as they get off the battlefield, the deputy head of the Wild Wolf Heart, the black spider Tana who has been promoted to the throne at this time, is waiting.
It is only natural that she should represent the heart of the wolf to accept Alfred's legacy.
"Your will, dear sir, will be carried out!"
The servant struggled to carry the long sword, but he was sincerely moved by the noble character of William the Brave, and he couldn't help but say it.
'Retract back into a fist to better hit the enemy...... Give up at this time, just to get more ...... in the future'
I don't know why, Adrien looked at William the Warrior, but such a sentence came to his heart.
Immediately, he put on the armor of bright light and embarked on his own journey.
No matter how handsome and powerful Alfred was before, a dead man is a dead man, and the Earl of Blue Mountain would not shed a single tear for him, and even the audience selectively forgot about him and began to cheer for the next showdown.
Now Adrien will face his opponent in the place of Alfred's death, and the winner among them will compete with William for the final championship and the knight's position.
……
"My opponent should be Adrian!"
Wu Ming watched Adrien defeat his opponent and was about to rent a war horse casually, but a servant hurriedly came over: "Mr. William...... I brought Mr. Adrien's message! ”
"Huh?"
After hearing the report, the look on Wu Ming's face became even more strange.
"Everyone!"
On the field, the referee heard a servant whispering a few words, and was also a little stunned, and immediately announced loudly: "According to the requirements of Knight Adrien, he will fight with William in the final in the afternoon, without armor for each other, and compete for the honor of the championship!" Let us rejoice in His justice! ”
William's horse had been slashed, and he had no knightly armor at all, which was obvious to all.
With such a huge advantage, Adrien still pursued a fair match, which really surprised everyone.
And his request for such knightly virtues would not be rejected by any lord.
"This man...... Church ......"
Wu Ming watched this scene quietly, but there was a light in his eyes.
If the other party uses the war horse and armor he is familiar with, it is not without the strength to fight, but giving up the advantage like this now is no different from admitting defeat.
If it was Adrien's own decision, he didn't believe it.
……
At noon, in the lounge, Adrien began to enjoy his lunch after a prayer routine.
"Adrian!"
At that moment, the door opened, and the archbishop walked in softly.
He glanced at the blueberry berries and veal steak on the table, and shook his head slightly.
"Sorry...... Your Excellency! ”
Adrien blushed.
"It is the ascetic practice to advocate that black bread and water can sustain the needs of the day, even if you are a glorious knight of the church......"
"Don't dare!"
Adrien's face turned red and shook his head again and again: "Even though I have declared my departure from the church, the glory of the Lord will always exist in my heart......
The archbishop's cloudy eyes looked at Adrian: "Do you have any grievances?" ”
was stared at by him, even Adrien, he couldn't help but feel that he was being seen through from the inside out.
"All for the glory of our Lord!"
He endured himself and saluted the archbishop in front of him.
"All things come from my Lord, all things are for my Lord...... The evil star is about to emerge, and our time is running out......"
The archbishop muttered.
"That'...... Could the archbishop, that man, be the savior? ”
Seeing that he turned around and was about to leave, Adrien finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked directly.
"Savior?"
The archbishop turned his face with a surprised expression: "There has never been a savior in the world, and the only one who can really save the people is my lord and themselves!" ”
"Then why did the archbishop do this?"
Adrien was even more puzzled.
"Give up horse warfare, armor?"
The archbishop smiled: "This is to save your life!" My baby! ”
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to the puzzled Adrian, turned around and walked out of the room.
……
"The Spring Tournament, the championship match, will be played by William Freedman from Nia Town, against the former Knight of Glory and now the Guardian of Fairness, Adrien!"
In the afternoon, many nobles were absent, and even the ordinary audience was full.
There was a huge crowd of people who wanted to witness the birth of the champion and, of course, the amazing honor.
"First up is the freedman from Nia, the magical William! His martial arts skills are as powerful as the legendary sword god, and he always easily defeats his opponents with his superb sword skills, and because of his habit of not piercing armor, he has the name of 'Cloth Sword Saint' among civilians! ”
In the hoarse shouts of the referee and the audience, Wu Ming was still dressed in cloth and walked into the square.
"To my left is the Knight Adrien, who has been baptized by the Church and dressed in glorious robes, representing glory and protection! This lord is a noble and just one, and he gave William a chance to fight fairly! ”
"Let's cheer for these two!"
"William! William! ”
"Adrian! Adrian! ”
……
In the midst of many shouts, I saw the Earl of Blue Mountain stand up indifferently and make a gesture to start a duel.
"Adrian!"
At this time, Wu Ming pulled out his steel long sword, looked at Adrien on the other side, and said indifferently: "Although I don't know if it's not your intention, but in return, you can survive!" ”
Seriously, whether this is an olive branch thrown by the church or not, before Wu Ming can empty all worldly powers, he has to obediently continue.
"Arrogance!"
Adrien roared, and the muscles on his body bulged, and there seemed to be a faint flash of lightning.
"Sword Momentum - Thunder Slash!"
In the next moment, he held the sword in both hands, as if he instantly appeared in front of Wu Ming.
This is a secret technique passed down from the time of the Knights of the Church, the highest level of combat and killing techniques, which has been continuously repaired for dozens of generations, and has become extremely perfect.
Before, he relied on this move, and it was difficult for any opponent to block his sword.
Even though William's strength is extraordinary, after a sword, the center of gravity must be unstable, and he must regress and adjust, and at that time, the opportunity will come.
Bang!
But to his surprise, William did not escape, but directly slashed out with a sword, and the two swords were almost straight into a line.
The tremendous power came, his hands shook, and the whole person took a step back.
'Could it be that William has been baptized and knighted?' ’
Adrien thought to himself, and the next moment, an attack that seemed to be like a storm had already roared.
Jingle Bell!
The sound of the clash of gold and iron resounded, and the opponent's attack was like a raging storm, and it did not leak, and Adrien retreated again and again, and his heart was even more shocked, but he could not find any way to fight back.
Bang!
Suddenly, his right hand loosened, and the sword flew high, a sharp edge against his throat.
"I lost ......"
The corners of Adrian's mouth were bitter, and he spat out three words.
He looked at William, who was light and breezy in front of him, and asked incredulously: "It turns out that you haven't used all your strength in your previous games?" ”
"Naturally not, but I have mastered some kind of secret method to stimulate qi and blood, and I can carry out an explosion!"
Wu Ming replied with a slightly heavy breath.
With the body of a mortal, suppressing the knights who have been baptized by knights and achieved transcendent results is also a big burden for him, even if he uses secret methods.
"That's the limit of ordinary people...... A few more knights to besiege me, and I will be unlucky! ”
Wu Ming sighed in his heart: "You must complete the knight baptism as soon as possible, or obtain other abilities!" ”
"William!"
"William!"
"William!"
Adrien walked out of the square in despair, but the whole audience was in an uproar.
"The winner of this tournament is William from the town of Nia! Let's cheer for him! ”
The referee announced loudly, and immediately a maid stepped forward, dressed Wu Ming in a white robe, put on a flower crown made of thorns and vines, and surrounded him to the noble platform.
There, the Earl of Blue Mountain had already stood up and looked at him with admiration: "Congratulations, William! ”
He raised his hand, and the atmosphere of the entire venue quieted down suddenly, and I don't know how many pairs of envious and jealous eyes converged on Wu Ming.
"Now, it's time to deliver on the rewards and promises of the champions!"
The Earl of Blue Mountain drew his sword and looked solemn: "The freedman from Nia - William!" Will you be loyal to me? ”
Every knight needs a lord who is effectively loyal, this is the law of this world, and no one can escape it.
'It's a little better than Baron Terry......
Wu Ming slandered in his heart, made a solemn look on his face, and saluted respectfully: "I am willing!" ”
"Good!"
The Earl of Blue Mountain placed the long sword on Wu Ming's shoulder, and said in a solemn tone: "I bestow on you the honor of knighthood in the name of Wood von Blue Mountain, the inheritor of the original blue blood, the guardian of the people of the Blue Mountains, the Earl of Whistling Castle, and the reincarnation of the Blue Tiger!" ”
"I swear, I will offer you my loyal sword!"
"I will be kind to the weak, brave against brutality, against all wrong...... Unswerving to the death of what you love! ”
"I will remember my vows until I die!"
……
Wu Ming swore loudly in accordance with the ancient rites.
By the time he got up, his identity had changed, and he was no longer a freeman, but a knight! Sir William!
