Chapter 92: To the Royal Capital (4/4)

Of course, although it took a little more effort, the final result was no different, turning on the effect of the Demon Wings, attacking Xiao Mengran, who had a 100% bloodsucking effect, and finally defeated Artoria with full blood. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Touching the head of Artoria, who was a little disappointed, Xiao Mengran comforted: "You are actually very strong, except for me, the total number of people in the world who are stronger than you is only a finger."

The girl knight smiled, in fact, she was sad that she was about to celebrate her 16th birthday.

Knight Eckert told her that long before she was sent out of the palace, her father, King Yusher, had arranged for her to become king by pulling out the sword in the stone that could only be pulled out by awakening the royal blood when she was 16 years old.

This means that she can spend a lot less time with Xiao Mengran, but her ideal is to let the people no longer suffer, so she doesn't want to give up this opportunity to become a king.

Under Xiao Mengran's teaching, she knew that only by being righteous can she be right, and that a king can naturally improve the lives of the people more than an ordinary knight.

Before you know it, it's Christmas Eve (Chinese New Year's Eve in the West), and the companions of the knights of Eckert, those loyal to King Yuser, have already begun to build momentum, spreading the story of the sword in the stone.

Hearing that there was a golden text around the sword in the stone that read, "The one who pulls out this sword is the chosen king of Britain", knights from all over the country are gearing up, and they all rush to the royal capital one by one, ready to take advantage of the New Year to draw this sword in the stone that symbolizes the royal power in the presence of everyone.

Xiao Mengran naturally knew very well that after King Yuser died of illness, only Artoria could pull out this sword, and the result of this competition was doomed from the beginning.

Because Xiao Mengran's advanced teleportation technique could only be used on himself, Artoria and Knight Eckert and Kai set out on their way to the royal capital early.

Watching Artoria's figure disappear into the snow, Xiao Mengran muttered helplessly, "Fate? It's easy to change fate, but how do I know if I caused it? ”

It's just that Artoria, who was already walking on the road, naturally didn't know Xiao Mengran's entanglement, because she needed the horses in the knight's manor of Ackert to run away from the dead running, so the three of them went to the nearby territory first to buy 6 horses to go to the royal capital.

Fortunately, in the end, there were no accidents along the way, after all, when the three of them in the group, even the weakest Kai was a big knight, there would not be many bandits who would dare to provoke them.

Along the way, when the three servants finally arrived at the royal capital, there were only three short days left before Chinese New Year's Eve.

As soon as I entered the royal capital, the streets and alleys were talking about the sword in the stone and the election of the king.

At this time, there were many kingdoms of Great Britain, and anyone who had a territory could claim to be king, so there were hundreds of kings, large and small.

Since the death of the previous king of Britain, King Uther, due to an old injury, because of the delay in the absence of a new king, there has been constant friction between various territories, perennial wars, and the people are miserable, and they are desperate for a new "king of kings" to reunite the chaotic Britain.

And those kings of all sizes are also full of ambition for the throne of the king of Britain, so with the fuse of the sword in the stone, all those who want to elect a new "king of kings" The king of Britain gathered in the royal capital.

Thanks to them, the residents of the royal capital have made a lot of money these days.

In fact, most of the knights tried to draw the sword in the stone as soon as they came to the royal capital, and it was clear that these people failed.

Then more people feel that they are the chosen ones, try one by one, and then fail one by one.

Eventually, all the knights who were qualified to draw the sword failed, so the bishop who guarded the sword in the stone proposed that a knight's jostle be held before the sword in the stone, and the knight who would be the new king of Britain.

Naturally, the other knights would not refuse, so after discussion, they decided to hold a jousting tournament on Christmas Eve to compete the winner.

Sure enough, things are going according to the plan made by King Yuses during his lifetime, and it has to be said that this King of Yuses is a wise and wise king, and almost everyone reacts.

As Christmas Eve drew closer, Artoria's thoughts calmed down, and her heart was peaceful, and the question she thought about the most in her spare time was whether Xiao Mengran would come to see her when she was crowned king.

Eventually, when all the knights felt that no one should be able to draw the sword in the stone to prepare for the tournament, Knight Eckert led Artoria and Kai into the courtyard where the sword in the stone was inserted.

Seeing everyone's puzzled eyes, Knight Eckert let go of his knight's momentum and said, "Wait, the three of us haven't tried it yet, why don't we continue the martial arts competition after we have tried?" What if any of the three of us succeeds? ”

Naturally, the other knights did not dare to refute, so Knight Eckert first tried to pull out the sword in the stone, but no matter how much strength he used, the sword in the stone still did not move.

Having anticipated this, Knight Eckert pretended to be very sorry and asked Kai to try it, but without surprise, Kai naturally failed.

Just when everyone thought that no one would be able to pull out the sword in the stone, Artoria quietly walked up to the high platform and put her hands on the hilt of the sword in the stone.

Taking a deep breath, Artoria originally thought that she would encounter great resistance, but in the end, with almost no effort, Artoria gently pulled out the sword in the stone, which symbolized the king's power.

Not only were the surrounding knights a little dumbfounded, but even Artoria herself didn't expect it to be so easy to pull out the sword in the stone.

Originally, the knights should have recognized Artoria as the king, but they didn't know what Artoria's specific combat effectiveness was, and these knights from all over the world naturally didn't want to obey the prophecy of this sword in the stone.

Seeing the entanglement on the faces of the knights, Artoria naturally knew what these knights were thinking.

Drawing her golden sword, Artoria walked up to the crowd and said to the knights, "If anyone doesn't want to admit the result, please challenge me." As long as anyone can defeat me, I will give you the title of king. ”

After waiting for a long time, but no one stepped forward, Artoria mocked helplessly: "Don't you feel ashamed that the knights are afraid of my little girl?" ”
