Seeing that the Chinese had won another game, the king smacked his lips a little tastelessly. However, although they won, the mage named Luo Ling also seemed to be injured, and was helped to walk down the ice.

"Your Majesty, since the challenger has already lost two games, there is no need to compete again, right?" asked Marquis Francisco as he came to the balcony.

"Hmm......" the king's eyes glanced at Savah, who was supposed to be the third to play.

"Your Majesty. I begged to be allowed to finish the last race. Duel in questioning challenges, it's the honor of the fighters......" Savah said.

"What's the point of this?" Xiao Chen asked loudly, "The challenge of questioning is only a result, and now that the result has come out, the challenge will naturally end." We refuse to engage in any further duels. If you insist on going against us, that's the beginning of a war. ”

Savah asked, "Don't you think it's an honor?"

"Don't think I don't know what you're going to do, we've respected the traditions here, and if anyone wants to get along with me, it's disrespectful. There is no glory in itself. ”

"Only a coward is afraid of an opportunity to show his strength!" Savah didn't expect this mage to be so aggressive, and before he knew it, his voice became softer.

"Show strength?" Xiao Chen sneered and said to Ye Zi, "Let him see what strength is." ”

The tattoo on Ye Zi's hand disappeared suddenly, but this time it did not turn into the spear, but into the appearance of Xavier's God of War bracelet, and the bracelet was close to the gem with a gun-shaped metal decoration, which was very similar to the appearance of the body of the shadow gun. This is a new form of the shadow gun, in the state of the bracelet, it still retains all the strength, speed and other bonuses, and also has the effect of increasing the magic power, which is equivalent to a superb mage wand, because its previous owner, Valkyrie, is a strong man who has cultivated both monsters to the extreme.

With the bracelet bonus, Ye Zi cast a giant force spell on himself, and this magic can multiply people's strength in a short period of time.

Ye Zi picked up a stone from the ground and cast an air explosion technique on the stone, which was an enchanted magic that increased the power of the projectile. Then she gathered her fighting spirit and jumped into the air, and threw the stone into the lake. With the addition of fighting energy, bracelet bonuses, and magic blessings, the strength that made her burst out at that moment was a hundred times greater than her original physical strength.

The stone that wrapped the fighting spirit rushed into the floating ice, making a roaring sound, the ice was blown to pieces, the broken ice and the pond water were thrown into the air more than 30 meters high, and then turned into hail and rain, sprinkled inside and outside the pond, and even the pavilion built by Luo Ling was half blown off by this blow.

The guests who got close screamed to avoid the droplets falling from the sky and kept retreating.

Ye Zi stuck out his tongue, "I'm sorry, I didn't control the strength well." ”

Xiao Chen smiled encouragingly at her, and asked Savah with a straight face: "This is the power you want, we have already shown it." ”

Savah's face was red and white, although he was a high-level warrior, he would never be able to use a small pebble to blast half of the pond away, he looked at Ye Zi, and the fear in his heart arose.

There are very few people in this world who really cultivate both fighting spirit and magic, and there are more warriors like magic knights who use magic to assist martial arts, and artifacts like the God of War bracelet are even more unique. Therefore, except for a very few people present such as Mei and Xiao Chen, almost no one understood what Ye Zi's series of actions just now contained.

Savah didn't know that Ye Zi's achievement of this effect was completely caused by the right magic and power-strengthening items, but the attack during the real battle could not reach this level at all.

He flinched.

"I ...... Give up the challenge. After saying this, he left the scene with his head down.

Wang Guo snorted coldly and scolded in a low voice: "Coward." ”

"Your Majesty, now that the challenge is over, let's continue to complete the canonization. The queen reminded.

———————————————

Naturally, the canonization ceremony returned to the council chamber.

The whole process is a bit like a signing ceremony on Earth. On the deed of land, the names of the king, Count Carlos and Xiao Chen, the representative of the Tower of China, were signed, and then the representatives of the natural temple and the Kingdom Magic Association were present to sign the proof. The deed was then made in triplicate, which was kept by the royal family, the Arias family, and the Tower of China. Since then, large tracts of land in the Montenegrin region have truly belonged to schools in the eyes of the locals.

Later, the king gave Xiao Chen a snow sandalwood wrapped with Mithril filament, and wrapped the nodes with ice dragon skin, the best ice staff, and a protective robe with a low-level magic absorption function, Xiao Chen and Li Jia took the staff and robe respectively, and thanked them. This represents the establishment of a cooperative relationship between the Tower of China and the royal family. They were required to provide services to the kingdom at specific moments as a reward for land and taxing rights.

"Your Excellency Xiao Chen, welcome your China Tower as the twenty-fifth magic tower to forge friendship with the Kingdom. I hope that the Tower of China and the royal family can become long-term partners. The king smiled and said to Xiao Chen, as if he had made the stumbling block no longer exist.

"Your Majesty, there is an old saying in our hometown. If a king treats others as if they were his hands and feet, others will naturally treat the king as if they were his own heart. Xiao Chen said lightly.

"What the senior wants to say is: Jun Zhi regards his ministers as his siblings, and his ministers regard him as his heart, right?" Ye Zi asked in a low voice.

"No, what he wants to say is that the king regards his ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard him as enemies. Luo Ling said, her face had recovered a little, "However, this sentence is not suitable for us." ”

"Why?" Ye Zi said.

Luo Ling smiled but did not speak.

————————————————

In the evening, in Xiao Chen's study in the office.

Xiao Chen and Luo Ling sat opposite each other with glass wine glasses, Xiao Chen drank wine, but Luo Ling drank water.

"Why did you say to Ye Zi that Mencius's words were not suitable for us? Xiao Chen took a sip of wine and asked.

"For we will not be anyone's courtiers. In the final analysis, we are inseparable from the king and the nobility. Luo Ling said.

Xiao Chen held his chin and looked at Luo Ling with a serious expression under the light, "Are you going to say: No matter how you treat me, I will treat me like an enemy?"

"No, we don't have a personal grudge, we don't count as enemies. Luo Ling turned the wine glass in her hand, "Maybe grass mustard is more suitable." Because one day they will be swept into the dustbin of history. ”

"Isn't it too early to say that?"

"Is it early? I feel that the moment of collision will soon come. ”

"I really don't like the feeling of being in battle. ”

Luo Ling sighed: "I don't like it either." But this is always the ultimate way for us humans to solve big problems. It's the same in any world. ”

"Well, anyway, from today onwards, we're on the stage of this world. Cheers to this. Xiao Chen raised his glass.

The wine glass in Luo Ling's hand touched it lightly, and she smiled lightly and said, "No, we have been on this stage all the time." From the moment we came here, it was like a rushing stream that broke through the embankment, and there was no force to stop it from surging forward. ”
