Almost every castle in the world has a basement, and Elanz Castle is no exception.

But unlike ordinary nobles, as one of the two great dukes of Thrace, the Elantz family, who are powerful enough to stand on their own, have more than just a "basement".

Or rather, their "basement" is not just below the castle.

For example, at this moment, the martial arts arena where Panda and Otto are fighting is about three miles outside the castle, and more than ten meters up is the main road leading to the castle.

When the panda, led by the high-level members of the Elantz family, came to this martial arts arena along the underground tunnel, he couldn't help but be a little stunned when he looked at the system map.

(I'll you!...... Isn't it the same place where I looked at Erlanz Castle from afar when I was stealing iron ingots everywhere and wondered if I should go in to get a vote?!)

He wasn't the kind of wizard who could never forget, but how could he not be impressed by what he had experienced? In fact, he really had the slightest intention of "sneaking into Elanz Castle and stealing a large number of iron ingots". But standing a few miles away and gazing at the tall castle, and thinking of the powerful characters in the castle, dispelled this unrealistic thought.

Running into a castle where a legendary powerhouse sits to steal something?

In contrast, it might be a little less difficult to run into Thracian City and steal from house to house—at least over there, he could get the help of rock singer Sheehan and others to cover up.

So he ended up taking a detour and didn't get close to Erlanz Castle at all.

Now it seems that this is really a very wise approach. The depth of the Elantz family's heritage and strength are simply astounding. If he had really run away and died, it would have been 100% the result of being killed and returned to the castle. Although it is said that the traverser is not afraid of death, if he is hung back to the castle, he will not be able to go to the mines in the north to collect ore.

Looking around at this vast underground square, the panda was amazed and couldn't help asking, "Why did you build the martial arts arena here, and is there any special use?"

"This wasn't actually a martial arts arena in the first place. "During the War of Unification of the Northwest, the ancestors of the Elantz family, fearing a massive enemy attack, prepared several traps near the castle, and this was one of them. It's just that the battle turned out to be unexpected, and in the end it didn't develop to the point of fighting with the Thracian family to the end, and these traps lost their effect. ”

"That is, here...... Originally, it was used to hide an army, and when the enemy attacked the city, it suddenly jumped out from behind and flanked back and forth?" asked Panda in surprise.

"Almost. ”

"That's amazing!" Panda couldn't help but praise, "If this method is used well, maybe tens of thousands of troops will be easily defeated." ”

"But after the ancestors have prepared these traps, there is no point in defeating tens of thousands of people. Katerina sighed, "It only makes sense to beat Lepp Heinrich and Owens Pitutz." ”

The panda sighed as well.

Of course, he understood what Caterina meant, so he couldn't help but sigh for the ancestors of the Elantz family.

When the Ice Sword Saint and the Shield Mountain had not yet stepped into the legendary realm, the Elantz family was not strong enough and had to prepare traps to have any hope of turning defeat into victory. But by the time the trap was ready, there were already two legendary powerhouses on the Thracian side. In the face of the coercion of the two legendary powerhouses, these traps prepared were useless.

Even if they defeated the Thracian army by trapping, the Elantz family could not stop the joint assassination of two legendary powerhouses.

"It's all old things from many generations ago, what is there to say?" Otto was an anxious man, and when he heard them chatting, he couldn't help but say loudly, "Now this is a secret martial arts arena, don't think so much, finish this fight with me first!"

As he spoke, he raised the axe in his hand, and the tip and blade of the axe shimmered with a sharp cold light under the magic stone used for lighting.

"With a bladed weapon, are you okay?" he asked.

Panda smiled and pulled out his twin swords: "Don't worry about hurting me, Liu Daoqing is very good at healing spells." ”

On the edge of the martial arts arena, Liu Daoqing had already cast a spell to conjure up a large ball of talisman water floating in the air, and nodded again and again when he heard this: "You can fight at ease, there are so many healing talismans, even if the head is cut off, I can help you connect it." ”

Before he could finish speaking, Otto was already laughing. With the laughter, his body glowed bright red, like a flame, blazing.

This is precisely his vindictiveness, the name of "burning steel", from which it comes from.

There are many schools of fighting qi in the Western Continent, and the schools of the Elantz family tend to be flames, whether it is Caterina or Otto, as long as they are the core figures of the Elantz family, almost all of them are flame-attribute fighting spirits.

Therefore, when you fight against the masters of the Elantz family, you must keep enough distance, if you get close, you may be killed by the flame of the fighting spirit.

Panda knew this, of course, but he didn't.

Erantz's flame fighting energy is not weak, but his divine power is enough to heal himself. As long as the battle isn't too long, he doesn't need to worry about the environmental damage caused by the Flame Fighting Qi.

However, with the divine power that has not fully recovered after he casts the "Heavenly Damnation", he can probably only hold on for a short time. If the battle dragged on, without Otto's attack, the scorching heat of the flame fighting qi alone would be enough to force him to admit defeat.

So for him, if he wants to win, he has to shorten the time of this fight, and it is best to be able to finish it in three or five minutes.

(It's a turn-based game...... I remember when I helped my brother and participated in the fighting competition, it was only three rounds, and each round lasted only two minutes. ）

(I was a drag at the time, winning one of my six games and only getting two draws.) No way, I was an amateur at that time, and I played professionally as an amateur, and it was quite rare to be able to draw twice. Now I'm a professional, and after all these years of hard training, I'm confident that I won't lose to anyone in the field of martial arts!)

(Otto wielded a long and heavy weapon, and only the first blow in the front had to be dodged.) Dodging a head-on blow, my dual swords will be able to give full play to the advantage of defense, and then he will fall behind. ）

(In this competition, the key to victory or defeat is in the first move!)

The panda thought to himself, and walked slowly towards Otto. But instead of walking straight over, he walked to the side, as if he was going to circle around Otto.

At the same time, a faint golden light lit up on his body, and soon enveloped his whole body,

To fight against an opponent who strengthens his body with fighting energy, of course, he also needs to strengthen himself with divine energy, otherwise, he will lose without fighting.

Otto stood still, just raising his axe and gun with both hands and making a slashing gesture. But as the distance between the two sides got closer and closer, the flame fighting qi on his body burned more and more violently.

Finally, the first general of Erantz moved.

Without warning, his whole person seemed to disappear and then reappeared, came to the front of the panda, picked up the axe gun, and it was directly a sweep, which was the opposite of the posture he had put on before.

This big man with a rough personality has an unimaginable agility and cunning in battle!
