Chapter 96: Holy King Fruit
"Freigal!"
The stands erupted in earth-shattering cheers, all chanting the same name. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At that moment, Albert struggled to his feet. However, due to multiple bone cracks, his limbs could not exert any strength, and he failed several times.
Freigal walked slowly towards Albert, his gaze changing from sharp to gentle. "Ancient Mage, you've lost. He said calmly, stopping five meters away from the other party.
"You're a good opponent. Albert said, looking at the blue sky.
There was no trace of frustration and loss on his face, but a strange smile on his face, as if he was the winner.
"You too, it's an honor to fight you, I ......"
"Roar!"
A roar interrupted Fregal's words, and the sound condensed into sound waves that spread.
Unsuspected, Fregaar let out a wail, was knocked several meters away by the sound wave, and fell to the ground.
Everyone in the stands covered their ears and looked at Albert with astonishment. It's unbelievable that a roar can be so powerful.
Countless people's hearts were bleeding, not for Fregaar, but for their gold coins. They pressed a lot of money on Fregaar, and the bastard is now losing the game.
There was only one exception, a heroic middle-aged man nodded, and there was a look of approval in his eyes.
Time passed, and everyone held their breath and stared at the field, hoping that Albert would not stand up, so that it would be a draw.
However, the audience is destined to be disappointed.
Albert used all his strength to stand up. He looked at Fregaar, who was lying on the ground, and smiled gently, "I want to say the same thing, it's an honor to fight you." ”
"Thank you for the compliment, it seems that my cultivation is not enough. "Freigal was lying on the ground, though a little disgraced, but not depressed.
"It's the credit of the sneak attack. Albert smiled, feeling a little respect for Fregaar. Although Fregaar made no secret of his arrogance and conceit, he was able to face defeat calmly, which is not something that everyone can do. A true martial artist will never be defeated by the enemy, and even if he loses temporarily, he will get up again and challenge again, which is the spirit of martial arts.
"A loss is a loss. Fregaar reluctantly stood up, "I won't give up, one day, you'll lose." ”
Albert nodded, smiled at Fregaar, and the two left in opposite directions.

Back in the lounge, Albert's excitement was overwhelming.
Not only was he happy to win, but he was also excited about opening the Holy Word, which was also mixed with confusion.
As we all know, the Holy Energy Fruit can only activate one Holy Energy, but now he has opened the Holy Soul and the Holy Word, which is indeed a bit weird.
Amplifying the voice, turning it into a sound wave, something only the Holy Word possesses, and Albert was sure that he had guessed correctly, that he had indeed turned on a Holy Power. Suddenly, Albert's eyes lit up, could it be the holy king fruit?
In the Dragon Clan's inheritance, it is recorded that there is a fruit that is more magical than the Holy Energy Fruit.
There are three Holy Energy Tree Kings in this world, also known as the Holy King Tree, which are in the hands of the Protoss, the Dragon Clan, and the Elven Clan. The fruit produced by the Sacred King Tree is called the Sacred King Fruit, and its effect is several times stronger than that of the Sacred Energy Fruit, which can activate three to five Sacred Energies and can be taken indefinitely.
Of course, the Dragon Legacy records the events of 10,000 years ago.
Ten thousand years passed, the dragon was hidden, the Titan was invisible, and the two precious Sacred King Trees disappeared with it. According to legend, the Holy King Fruit is the key to crowning the crown of the gods, and war inevitably broke out. For the sake of the last Sacred King Tree, all races put aside their grudges, formed an alliance, and launched a conquest against the elves. But in the end, the elves relied on powerful magic to protect their home and let everyone prove the power of nature's darlings.
The elves have become another overlord after the dragons and titans, but the Sacred King Tree has mysteriously disappeared.
From then on, no one could use the power of the Holy King Fruit to peek into the mysteries of the gods.
Albert smiled, being able to activate two holy powers, it seems that what Xiao Qiao gave her was not a holy energy fruit, but a holy king fruit.
It was so amazing that he didn't know how to express his feelings. Fortunately, I met that arrogant little broom star in the Misty Forest.
"The Ancient Magician lives up to his reputation. ”
At that moment, a strong voice suddenly sounded, calling Albert's thoughts.
He followed the sound as a slightly emaciated middle-aged man walked slowly, followed by Jennifer, "Who are you?"
"Fortunately, I'm Lord of Radiant City, Count Sakura. Count Sakura looked down at Albert condescendingly, "As for my name, you don't need to know. ”
"Is there anything wrong with coming here?" said Albert, his expression calm as water, but in his heart he had killed Count Sakura countless times. He knew very well that all the crimes committed by the Crouching Tiger bandits had the shadow of this Count Sakura.
"Honestly, I hate self-righteous magicians, but I appreciate you. Count Sakura smiled, and as he spoke, he took Jennifer into his arms and kneaded the elastic peak, "There are two paths in front of you, surrender, or death." "After watching today's battle, Viscount Sakura feels threatened. I'm afraid it won't be long before this ancient mage becomes famous.
If he is favored by a certain big man and asks for someone, then his end will surely come.
Although this is only a possibility, be prepared, Count Sakura will not allow events that cannot be mastered.
Albert was silent, I'm afraid that this time it was really a catastrophe, he could feel the undisguised killing intent on the other party, and he was much calmer.
No one is not afraid of death, and Albert is no exception. However, there are some things that are more important than life, and even if he dies, he does not want to become a pawn of the devil. Justice is hypocritical, and he is unwilling to serve it, but if he can die for the truth he has been seeking, he has no regrets.
He closed his eyes, and the moment seemed like a century long.
Familiar scenes appeared in front of me, and friendly figures lingered in my mind.
Joanna, who obsesses him, is enough to give his life to Kyle. There are also the Fung Wen sisters, Barrett, Yarman, Boris and Charlotte, and little Jon's mother and son, and even the civilians imprisoned in the mines.
And the one who needs him the most, and who he can't give up the most, is undoubtedly Edith.
Please, Kyle, Albert thought to himself, take good care of Edith for me, or I won't let you go.
"Have you thought it through?" Count Sakura's tone was mixed with impatience and anticipation, "You're a smart boy, and I think you'll be able to make the right choice." ”
"That's right. Albert nodded indifferently, "I'll choose the latter." ”
"Is this your final decision?" Count Sakura was a little incredulous, a child less than twenty years old, would choose to die?
Albert nodded again, his eyes showing determination and determination, "Come on, if you are a real man, let me die happily." ”
"You're really impressing. Count Sakura sighed with some regret, and then he changed to an indifferent expression, "I really don't want you to die quietly like this, as a member of the ancient magicians, I believe you don't want to die worthless." ”
"Go on. Albert frowned, not knowing what the other party wanted to dare.
"Have you ever heard of the 'Trial of Death'?" said Count Sakura, smiling, "I think that's where magicians end." ”

On this day, it was cloudless.
However, it was pitch black over Storm Arena, with only a few lucky rays of sunlight to cast on.
The stands were packed, and there were many people without seats. The sky is covered with hot air balloons and airships. There is a high platform in the field, on which is depicted a six-pointed star magic matrix.
Thousands of expensive magic crystals are inlaid in it, exuding a ghostly light.
Today's ticket prices have increased a hundredfold, but there are still countless people who flock to it for no other reason, all wanting to witness the legendary 'Trial of Death' with their own eyes.
1,300 years ago, in order to cultivate top talents, the Holy Magister Theodore teamed up with six Grand Magus to create a magic matrix that would allow magicians below the Golden Rank to greatly increase their magical power.
Of course, the reward is always proportional to the effort, and this magic circle has a terrifying name - 'Death Trial'.
Once you step into this magical and cruel magic matrix, you can't quit halfway, and you can only choose between trials and death. To date, a total of 4,136 people have participated in the 'Death Trial', many of whom are geniuses, but none of them survive.
Albert stood alone in the middle of the field, without an opponent.
Under Count Sakura's arrangement, his execution method was to enter the 'death trial' and create the last bit of value.
Of course, this was Albert's willingness, otherwise no one would have been able to arrange for him to die.
The reason why he agreed to Count Sakura's suggestion was not that Albert wanted to have a way to die for a magician, but that he saw hope, and this might be an opportunity for him. If you can pass this 'death trial', which has devoured countless genius lives and is called a genius meat grinder, you may be able to increase your strength a lot and escape from the gladiatorial arena.
Before entering the death trial, he closed his eyes and carefully felt the structure of the magic matrix.
Although this may be redundant, it never hurts, and who wants to rush into a strange place?
'Death Trial' is a dimensional space, and the magic crystal continuously transmits magic power into this dimensional space. The magic power was constantly transformed and condensed in it, forming huge balls of energy, suspended in the sky of dimensional space.
When the magic power in the magic crystal is exhausted, a picture is formed above the magic matrix, which seems to be an image inside the dimensional space. At the same time, a pillar of light erupted from the magic matrix, connecting heaven and earth.
After a moment, the pillars of light suddenly converged, converging into a large colored circular vortex.
