Volume 12 Chapter 7 See the board, Erdedale
This is the first time, and Durand feels a little overwhelmed in front of Vivian: "Uh, this, this...... You...... Actually, actually, I-"
"Hey, what are you two still muttering? It's time to play! Kakarot shouted.
"Oh, okay!" Vivien seemed to be in a much better mood after finishing speaking, pulled Durand and walked to the ring.
Durand's face was a little blank and he was pulled forward by the girl, and he silently said to himself in his heart: "Duland...... What a beast you are! β
In the knife box in his hand, a sneer faintly came out, and then the icy voice sounded in Duland's mind: "What, are you tempted?" β
"It's none of your business." Durand responded lightly.
Bing Ning said: "I heard what you just said, you said that the reason why you brought me out was to use me badly, rotten, and wasted?" Haha, do you want to avenge your first love in this way? β
"Yes and what? Damn it. β
"Good, good! I want to see how you can use me badly and uselessly with absolute defense and cultivation of the Melting Weapon Refining Body! Bing Ning gritted his teeth and said, "Don't think I haven't seen it, your cultivation has encountered a bottleneck, and you can't break through, and you don't even have a clue to break through!" Duland, you're going to regret taking me with you. You'd better not give me a chance to get out. β
Durand shrugged, noncommittal, and soon ran out of time to talk to Bingning or think about what to do with Vivien's heart.
Walking through the long passage in the waiting area, there was a sudden light in front of him, and Duland, Vivian and Kakarot walked into the ring together.
The tsunami-like cries of landslides immediately drowned Duland.
There are a lot of people around the ring, which is not a small area, and this time Paning has indeed invested a lot of money in holding a martial arts conference in order to regain his prestige, and it is not easy to invite so many people to participate in the conference.
Durand took a breath. Blocking out the cheers around him, he raised his eyes and looked at the stands on the east side of the ring, where Panin's god-level powerhouses and high-level leaders were gathered.
When Durand looked over, he found that the other party was also looking at him, especially the old man in the center, with a simple face but extremely sharp eyes.
Duland's body shook slightly, lowered his head, and lowered his eyelids.
"How?" In the stands on the east side, a god-level powerhouse asked the old man. "My lord, do you see something? That man is indeed a Phantom Samurai, no problem. β
"Well, it looks like it's a Phantom Samurai." The old man retracted the sharp light in his eyes and said slowly, "Don't worry, everyone sit down and watch the game with peace of mind." β
"Yes."
"Yes, sir."
After all the high-level officials took their seats. The old man quietly touched the first picture board left by Lord Qilan Wang, who was close to him, his face was solemn, and he thought silently in his heart: "Why did I have a terrifying feeling that my whole body was seen through the moment I looked at that person just now......
At this moment. Durand lowered his head and buried his face in the shadows in order to hide the irrepressible excitement and anticipation on his face.
"Panin has that kind of board in his hand? If you read that right. It seems to be an image of Rochester himself, right? Why is that? So what is the board? β
Duland's mind raced.
With his strength and eyesight, the moment he looked at each other just now, he saw through the other party's whole body. Including the board in the other person's arms and the pattern on the board.
"Heh, it seems that this trip to Paning, even if you fail to break through the bottleneck of cultivation, you will definitely gain a lot."
Durand calmed down, suppressed the unnatural expression, and when he raised his head again, his expression had regained his calmness.
The next action is simple, win the battle cleanly, and then enter the ancestral hall of the Qilan King.
Duland's original plan was just to seriously look for an opportunity or breakthrough to break through the bottleneck from a figure like King Qilan.
Now there is another task - whether Panin has mastered some important secrets of Rochester, Durand decided to find out seriously!
At this time, the referee walked up to the stage, first signaled the audience to be quiet, then cleared his throat and said, "The first championship battle of this martial arts conference is about to begin!" Before we begin, I would like to reiterate the rules: you can use any of the qiΔ methods in the game, and you are at your own risk. β
After a pause, the referee added: "In addition, the winning team must also ring the martial arts bell in order to truly have the qualification to enter the ancestral hall of the Qilan King for Daigo's baptism." β
When the people present heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned: "Do you want to ring the martial arts bell?" β
"That's right, according to the legend, the strange martial arts bell of Paning, which was almost impossible to ring before the god level, right? Isn't that a nuisance! β
"Alas, I know that this conference is not so simple, if the winners of the six categories of competitions can all enter the ancestral hall, it will be too cheap."
The referee smiled slightly, and finally said: "It is difficult for the martial arts bell to ring, everyone knows this very well. However, we Paning didn't mean to embarrass everyone, as long as we could make a slight sound from the martial arts bell, it would be considered a ringing. β
As soon as these words came out, many dissatisfied people suddenly stopped.
If you just hit the bell and make it make a slight sound, it won't be too difficult. It is rumored that before King Qilan became a god, he once made the martial arts bell ring for three minutes with one punch. A real powerhouse doesn't have to be at the god level to make the martial arts bell ring.
Soon, a huge blue-gray bell was lifted up and placed in a corner of the jousting ring. The bell is 30 meters high, like a hill.
The referee looked at the time, stopped talking nonsense, and announced loudly: "Now, the first championship battle of this martial arts conference is officially - start!" β
The moment the words fell, Kakarot, who was ready to go, had already rushed out and exchanged hands with one of the other party in an instant. Vivien's movements were not slow, her whole body was burning, and she fought with the other person on the other side again and again, shaking the entire ring faintly.
So in the blink of an eye, only Durand and the scarred man on the other side of the stage did not move.
The fight was fierce, but the two people were silent, opposing each other, as if neither of them meant to make the first move.
The man with the scar quietly glanced at the martial arts bell in the corner, and his eyes narrowed slightly: "Martial arts clock...... Do those old guys see that something is wrong with me? actually deliberately moved out of the martial arts bell to make things difficult. Others don't know, but I know very well how difficult it is to ring the martial arts bell. My brother went all out. It can only make it make a sound that almost no one can hear......"
The scar man secretly thought to himself, looking normal on the surface, so that people couldn't see his inner thoughts and feelings.
However, at this moment, Durand suddenly said to him: "You are mistaken, the high-ranking officials of Paning moved out of the Martial Arts Bell, but it was not aimed at you. β
The scar man looked stunned, looked at Durand incredulously, and gradually narrowed his eyes: "You...... How are you? β
He was shouting in his heart: How can this guy know what I'm thinking?! Martial Arts Bell isn't aimed at me? And against whom?
"It's against me." Durand smiled, once again seeing through the other man's thoughts and thoughts.
After saying that, Durand ignored the other party's expression as if he had seen a ghost. He glanced at the impassive old man in the stands with a picture board in his arms.
If you're not mistaken, the new rule of "ringing the martial arts bell to enter the ancestral hall" should be aimed at yourself. Durand remembered that the leader of Panin was an extremely cautious man, and it seemed that he still felt that there was something unusual about him, so he added a test, or it could be said that he deliberately made it difficult.
"As for why I can read your inner thoughts......" Durand turned to the scarred man again, and said lightly. Because in front of the super strong, your soul and memory, I can read it at will, Erdai. No. You shouldn't be called by such a clumsy pseudonym, Dale! β
The man with the scar on his face, Erdai.
Fight all the way to the final championship of the three-person battle.
Durand saw through the first moment he saw the other party: the other party was the Dale who had been missing for three months, but he used a very clever secret technique to change his appearance. Just disguised as a man.
To be honest, Durand admires this woman.
In the Ancient Path, she didn't die after being punched by the dwarven general. Later, when he returned to Panin, he mobilized a large number of people against Sendelow. It almost split Panin internally. Three months earlier, Durand had led the Battle Mages to complete the incredible January Attack, and SendrΓΈ's leadership was a foregone conclusion, with a large number of people who opposed Sendrew's faction surrendering or being killed, and Dale magically disappeared again.
And now, she actually disguised her identity, and even deceived Paning's god-level high-level executives to participate in the championship battle under their noses!
Durand couldn't help but applaud, looked at the stunned other party, and said with a smile: "Are you going to kill yourself, or do you want me to do it?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Dale gritted his teeth and appeared behind Durand, a quenching dagger appeared in his hand, and stabbed it fiercely into the vest of the man who saw through him!
"Who the hell are you? What do you want? As long as you don't reveal my identity publicly, I will repay you. Dale interrupted his speech while casting a dead hand, "Say, whatever you want, I can find a way to get it for you!" We can cooperate. β
Bite! The dagger seemed to hit an iron plate, and then somehow, it actually turned back.
Dale watched his hand, grabbed the dagger he had quenched himself, and finally stabbed himself in the heart, and entered without a handle!
Boom - the Panin executives in the stands instantly stood up and stared at the court, none of them could see how Durand had just won the game.
And most of the rest of the audience hadn't even noticed the change, and their attention was drawn to the other four who were playing hilariously.
Durand's face was calm, he reached out and wiped it on Dale's face, revealing his original appearance, and then shook the Panin executives on the stage, and then wiped it again, making Dale turn back into the appearance of a scar-faced man, so that it would not cause big trouble for Panin.
Otherwise, Dale's identity would be exposed in front of so many people, and it would be Chi Guoguo's slap in the face.
"You...... ...... the hell Who is it? As she lay dying, Dale grabbed Duland's arm, and the poison made her eyes pop out.
"I'm the one you hate the most." Durand chuckled in Dale's ear.
Casually putting the dead Dale on the ground, Durand walked to the martial arts clock in the corner of the ring under the watchful eyes of the Panin executives.
With a flip of his hand, he took out the knife-shaped ice condensation in the knife case.
"Want to use me to smash the bell?" Bing Ning coldly conveyed his thoughts, "Don't worry, it's not me who smashes it, it will only be the clock." (To be continued......)
