Chapter 10: The Brave and the Dragon II (1)

Previous Chapter

This is the Desert of Death, known as the Land of the Dead

The weather was sweltering, there was not a single wind, and the air around seemed to be frozen.

The two brothers, Cain and Alpha, walked in this unpopular territory, and the heat was painful for both brothers.

Alpha: "Big brother, hasn't the Holy City arrived yet?" I'm dying~"

Alpha has a bare upper body, his figure reminds people of two words, "violent", the muscles on his arms are like bricks, blocky pectoral muscles and extraordinarily obvious six-pack abs, and the whole body is curved, which is prohibitive.

"Hold on, Alpha, walk for another hour," Cain wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned to comfort his brother.

"Another hour!? Oh my God! Alpha couldn't stand this harsh environment anymore, and he 'poofed' and lay directly on the sand.

Cain looked at Alpha, who was lying in the shape of a salted fish on the sand, and could only turn to comfort him.

Cain took an apple out of his pocket and put it in front of Alpha and said, "Look up and look in front of you."

Alpha reluctantly pulled out his face buried in the sand and looked up at him, "Apple... Apple! ”

Alpha grabbed the apple in both hands and sat down on the sand, "Big brother, how can you have an apple!" ”

"This is the last time I left it at the restaurant, now you can go" Cain raised his hand and pointed behind him.

"Of course you can, but don't you eat it, big brother?"

"I don't need to, let's go"

"Okay" Alpha got up from the sand, apple in hand, happy ....... written on his face

After an hour-long journey, Cain and Alpha finally reached their destination, the 'Holy City'.

It is the birthplace of knights, and it is also home to the world's highest and most worshipped church, the Church of the Holy Light.

It is said that the Holy Court Church of Light is the embodiment of God and the agents of God, and the people in it have their own functions but all have various abilities endowed by God, and they call themselves "sons of God".

The church is clearly hierarchical, with the highest status being the bishop and the church father, followed by the saint and the son, and finally the paladin who is endowed with the power of light, and the lowest is the ordinary knight who is no different from ordinary people.

The Church ruled over the Holy City, and the king and the nobility had to obey the Church, but all the people in the area worshipped the Church, and everyone took it as a lifelong honor to be admitted to the Church.

"Wow~" Looking at the exotic scenery in front of him, Alpha couldn't help but sigh, the road was full of knights and church personnel wearing black robes, the streets were full of various stalls selling their own things, camels and horses carrying goods shuttled through the crowded streets, and the wide streets were lively.

Alpha excitedly shuttled through the stalls, buying more and more things in his hands, Cain looked at his younger brother who was excited and took off quickly, and covered his face helplessly.

"Brother, brother, look at this, this is the legendary holy water that can heal quickly, and look at this again, this is..."

"Alright, it's getting dark, let's find a hotel first, and then we'll talk about what you want to do" Cain looked at the extremely excited Alpha and ruthlessly interrupted him.

Cain looked at his brother who was staying where he was and said loudly, "Why are you stunned, let's go"

"Oh..."Alpha, who couldn't vent his excitement in his heart, followed the stealth in a depressed mood and secretly complained: "A straight man like big brother, how can anyone like it"

Cain turned his head and looked at Alpha in confusion.

Alpha instantly raised his head and walked forward.

"Boss, come to a double room"

"Okay, it's 10 gold in total"

Cain picked up the money bag that hung from his waist and took out 10 gold coins and handed them to the innkeeper.

After the boss had finished the gold coins, he said, "May I ask if the two of you are also here to participate in the knight selection meeting in the Holy City?" ”

"Huh? Knight selection? ”

The boss looked at Cain with a puzzled expression, and then explained: "We have a knight selection meeting here every year, and those who win the competition at the conference will have the opportunity to enter the Holy Court to become a knight.

That's why every year, people come all the way to the Holy City to participate in the conference, and I think they are also brave people who come to participate in the competition."

Cain: "Our brother is just an ordinary traveler passing by"

Boss: "In this way, the old man won't disturb the two of them to rest."

Cain and Alpha greeted the innkeeper and went upstairs.

Entering the room, two beds covered with clean sheets were imprinted into the eyes of the brothers, "Wow~ I can finally sleep on a soft bed!" Alpha flung his hand to the ground and screamed and flew to the nearest bed.

"It's dirty, go take a shower" Cain looked at Alpha with disgust.

"Big brother, this is a desert, and water resources are very scarce," Alpha said lazily while holding the quilt.

Cain's face became even more disgusted when he looked at his raunchy brother, and he saw Cain take off the money bag hanging from his waist and throw it on Alpha's head.

"Ah, it hurts, big brother, what are you doing," Alpha looked at Cain with his head covered and glared at him with wide eyes of condemnation.

"Take it to the shower, and the rest is yours," Cain said, casually lying on the floor.

"Huh!? Okay! Thanks big brother! Big brother really did the best for me! Hearing this, Alpha flew out of the door with the soles of his feet in the wind, and did not forget to praise Cain his mouth.

"Tsk, the stinky boy will play poor mouth," Cain, who complained about Alpha, but the corners of Cain's mouth with his eyes closed were still slightly upturned.

The next day, Cain picked up his packed luggage and walked downstairs, and as soon as he went downstairs, he saw his brother talking to his boss, and Alpha's face was full of excitement.

Alpha: "Thank you, boss!" ”

Boss: "You're welcome, knight. ”

Cain saw that the boss looked at Alpha respectfully, he had doubts in his heart but he didn't speak, he said to Alpha, "Let's go"

Alpha received the 'signal' and said to the boss: "Then let's go first, farewell"

Boss: "Slow down, knight, welcome next time!" ”

After saying goodbye to the innkeeper, the brothers walked out of the hotel, and Cain gestured to Alpha with his eyes, and Alpha said, "I'll take mine."

The knight badge that we "picked up" before showed the boss, and the boss answered all the questions, and the boss said that the knights are selected every year

Conventions will be held in various towns, every

Each town chooses a winner in the ring every year, and the winner gets a chance to challenge the monster, and every year the church sends the captured monster to the arena and lets the people and monsters in each town duel

, only those who successfully defeat the monster have a chance to become a knight of the church"

Looking at his brother who was listening carefully, Alpha paused and continued: "The boss said that the monster challenged in this town last year was a dragon, and this year too..."

Cain stopped.

"Big brother, are you going?"

"Go, why not? We are dragon knights, and we are related to dragons, so how can we be missing," Cain said.

Holy Hearing Church

Cain and Alpha watched the ring from afar, only to see two men dueling in the ring, and within a few moments, one of the men was kicked out of the ring with injuries all over his body.

I saw the man standing in the ring carrying an axe and shouting arrogantly: "Who else dares to challenge Uncle Ben!" ”

Looking at the men who were speaking in the ring, everyone in the stands began to discuss.

"It's really the axe king Maca, and it seems that he won the fight again this year"

"Marca is so strong, I don't think anyone can beat him"

"It is said that Maka's strength is already at the level of a knight in the church, and ordinary people can't beat him at all"

Someone retorted when he heard this: "What's the use of being strong, I can't defeat the dragon last year, and I have to let the paladins end up in the end."

"Marca couldn't beat the dragon because of a mistake last year, and he will definitely win the dragon this year"

"Come on, I think I'll have to let the Cavaliers end this year"

...........

Cain and Alpha listened to everyone's words and understood the people in the ring clearly.

Alpha: "Big brother? ”

Cain: "Go, tap"

Alpha: "Of course"

With that, Alpha squeezed into the ring with a beaming face.

In the ring, Maka, known as the Axe King, was still shouting arrogantly, but no one dared to compete on stage.

Looking at the crowd of people looking at each other in the audience, Marka turned to look at the audience seat sitting in a row of paladins, and said respectfully: "Lord Paladin, you see that no one dares to challenge me, so can I be the winner of this game?"

The paladins in the audience looked at this situation and began to discuss, and after a while, a female paladin stood up and said, "After discussion, we of the Paladins have decided that this year's winner is..."

"Wait a minute!!"

The female knight's words were suddenly interrupted, and everyone at the scene looked at the place where the voice was made, and the people who were there consciously gave way to a way, only to see a handsome young man with blond hair raised his hand and walked slowly to the ring.

Alpha walked into the ring and shouted, "I'm going to compete!" ”

This sound made everyone in the audience boil.

"This kid is crazy!"

"This kid is so self-conscious, he dares to challenge the Axe King, it seems that he is going to explain it here today"

Alpha ignored the commotion in the audience, he looked straight at the audience and said, "The game is not over yet, I can still participate in the game."

In the audience, the paladins looked at each other and discussed with each other, and after a while, the female knight who was standing just now spoke: "After our discussion, you can participate in the competition"

Alpha: "You can participate, that's it"

Alpha looked at Maka and said lazily to Maka: "Uncle, do you want to go down by yourself, or will I help you go down"

When Marca heard this, his whole body gritted his teeth and his eyes flashed with an uncontrollable anger, like an enraged lion, and he roared angrily, "Boy, you brought it on yourself!" ”

After that, he rushed to Alpha with an axe in his left hand, and Maka rushed to Alpha at once, and his axe slashed at Alpha from above, only to see Alpha dodge Maka with an unhurried kick back.

As soon as the hind foot touched the ground, Alpha lifted his foot and slammed it with a sharp whip leg. Like a black lightning bolt striking Maka's temple, Maka subconsciously stretched out his arm to block, but was blasted out sideways by the huge force.

"Ahh

"Uncle, admit defeat, you can't win me," Alpha said as he looked at Maka, who was struggling to support.

Marca gritted his teeth, propped himself up and said, "If you want me to admit defeat, it's still early."

"I admire your spirit, but I'm sorry you can't win today's game," he said, and Alpha disappeared in front of Marca's eyes.

"What! How is this possible? Looking at the person who suddenly disappeared in front of him, Maka was shocked.

"Uncle"

The voice came from behind Maka, and as soon as Maka turned around, he received a heavy punch in the stomach, which made Maka roll his eyes and lose consciousness.

Looking at the fallen Maca Alpha, he said, "Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me?" If not, I'm a winner."

The audience under the ring was all stunned, the scene was deadly silent, the knights in the audience had a convulsion of their throats, and everyone on the scene gasped.

The scene was quiet for a while, and the female knight who presided over was the first to react, and she said, "May I ask if there is anyone who wants to challenge this..."The female knight paused and looked at Alpha.

Seeing the female knight looking at him, Alpha instantly understood, and he shouted his name: "Alpha"

"If no one comes out to challenge Alpha, then the winner of this duel will be Alpha," the female knight said solemnly to the audience.

The crowd of people at the scene flocked, but no one crossed the ring, and the female knight could only announce loudly when she looked at this scene: "I announce!" This duel was won by Alpha! ”

As soon as the female knight announced the results of the match, the audience instantly became active.

"Alpha"

"Alpha!"

"Alpha!"

.....

The crowd shouted the name Alpha as the crowd chanted the name as the match-up, which lasted less than two minutes, refreshed everyone's perception of past matches.

"Everyone, be quiet!" I heard a knight in armor in the ring walk from the audience to the ring.

I saw him open his mouth and say loudly: "Next is the final test of the knight selection, we will hold it in the Colosseum, please go to the Colosseum in an orderly manner if you want to watch the game, our knights will arrive later"

When the people at the scene heard this, they began to leave the scene in an orderly manner and walk in the direction of the Colosseum.

The knight who spoke just now looked at the people who were gradually leaving, he looked up at Alpha and said, "My name is Alexander, and I am the captain of the second squad of the Knights, now please ask this warrior to follow our squad to the place of the second test."

Alpha looked at the young knight with long blond hair in front of him, and he smiled: "Okay, then I will trouble you to lead the way"
