Chapter 177: The Paladin's Challenge
On the battlefield in front of Thundering City, he gave birth to the third day after that great battle. 【】
Early in the morning, the soldiers on the city wall saw ten strange scenes.
In the distance, a white war horse ran towards the city wall. Immediately sat a man dressed as a knight, and the knight's armor was an old pitch-black, I don't know how many years it had been used. The ten knights on the horse, who were not wearing helmets, and whose brown head fluttered in the wind, gradually approached, and only then did they see that the man looked about forty years old, and from a distance, he had a rather majestic beard, but he could not see his face clearly.
The knight came on horseback, and came to a halt a hundred paces from the wall. He dismounted from his horse, and in his hand was a sword that looked to be many years old, and at least the leather scabbard looked discolored and aged in many places.
The knight stood beside the horse and shouted at the wall, "I am the Fielding Knight of the Roland Temple, please come out and speak to the Duke of Tulip!"
He stood a hundred paces away, but his voice came steadily, and it was as clear as if it were ringing in his ears! The voice did not seem to be loud, but every soldier on the city wall seemed to hear it very well. What's more, the sound actually passed through the city walls and reached the city!
Roddy was patrolling the inner side of the city wall at the moment, and when he heard this sound outside, his heart moved, and he strode up to the city wall.
Look at the Roland knight standing under the walls. Ziggy exclaimed, "Who are you?"
The knight raised the sword in his hand high: "I am the knight of the Fielding of the Roland Temple, and I want to see the Duke of Tulip of the Empire of Light!"
Roddy frowned and exclaimed, "I'm Duke Tulip." Fielding Knights. What is the matter with you? If it is to persuade the land to surrender, then my soldiers will release arrows!"
Knight Fielding smiled faintly: "Your Excellency Duke Tulip, I am not here to persuade you to surrender! I am a knight of the Holy Knights, I heard that you have captured one of our people, and I challenge His Excellency the respected Duke Tulip of the Bright Empire in the name of a knight! That person is my companion, if you are defeated, please release my subordinates back!"
Before Roddy could speak, Ziggy had already shouted, "What are you from Roland, down there?" Why is it like our Duke Challenge?"
Fielding said lightly: "In the name of a knight, I challenge His Excellency the Duke of Tulip of your country! If he does not dare to fight, please let my companion go!"
Ziggy sneered: "Nonsense! What kind of knight's name, you Roland knights have not 100,000 but 80,000, what cats, dogs, and four guys." They all came to challenge our Duke, so our Duke's still doesn't eat or sleep?"
As soon as these words came out, the Imperial soldiers on the city wall all burst into laughter. Some of them had already pointed at the Fielding knight below and laughed loudly.
The Fielding Knight's face remained unchanged, and he couldn't tell whether he was angry or embarrassed, and still said slowly in that unhurried tone: "Your Excellency Duke Tulip, I am the Paladin Fielding of the Roland Grand 6 Temple!
Paladin?
As soon as these words were spoken, the words were extremely clear, and although there was a laugh and curse on the city wall, Fielding's words were always very clear in a noisy voice.
Especially when the words "paladin" were spoken, the laughter and scolding on the city wall immediately stopped.
Paladin?That's the top master of Roland Big 6! The top of the knights!
Seeing that the noise above the city wall had gradually stopped, Fielding sneered, "Lord Tulip, I don't know if you dare to accept my challenge? I don't know if you, who are famous for their bravery and good fighting, dare to agree?"
Be quiet!
Involuntarily. The soldiers of the Empire above the city walls all looked at their heroes, the great pure handsome, Duke Tulip.
In their hearts, Duke Tulip's bravery was almost as if it had been deeply engraved in their hearts! Especially the people who witnessed the Duke leading the Thor's whip out of the city to fight in the gang that day, and they already admired their commander from the deepest part of their hearts...... That's a god on the battlefield!
After all, Ziggy was a little older, and couldn't help but whisper: "Lord Duke, that person claims to be a paladin...... You are the commander of an army and do not bother with them. If you have the ability, you will bring an army to attack the city! This kind of duel between individuals is meaningless, besides, the sword has no eyes, and the other party is a paladin, even if you defeat him, Lord Duke, I am afraid that you will have to pay some price...... You're our commander, and you have a lot of responsibility......"
Intellectually, Roddy agreed with Ziggy's words.
After all, he is now the commander-in-chief. A paladin is qualified enough to challenge himself - but can he defeat him?
The Paladin of the Roland people is equivalent to the master of the Sword Saint Samurai level of the Great 6 of Light. Even if Bai Ji can defeat this person, I'm afraid it won't work without paying a price, right? Getting hurt a little is certain...... Besides, the winner is still in two words!
If you win, it's good, but it's not worth it if you suffer any serious injuries for this kind of duel, after all, there is still a battle to fight and a lot of things to do...... If it loses, it will also be a big blow to the morale of the army.
It is true that there is no need to take such a fearless risk.
Roddy was silent, and the Fielding knight below spoke again.
"Your Excellency Duke Tulip, I didn't catch up with the battle the day before yesterday, and I was very curious to hear about your bravery on the battlefield...... I heard the Muse in the temple speak of the bravery of Duke Tulip of the Empire of Light in Roland 6...... I'm personally fascinated by this kind of rumor, and now you've got one of my cousins...... That's why I'm challenging you as a Paladin in Roland 6! I know you're the commander of Thor's Whip. Out of identity scruples, but no matter whether this battle is won or lost, I will let the Holy Knights who ordered Roland 6 not to fight in this battle in Thundering City!
Roddy gritted his teeth. Seeing the soldiers around him looking at him with anticipation and adoration on their faces, Roddy couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart - besides, the other party's condition was that the Holy Knights temporarily withdrew from the battle, which was considered fair.
Some of the soldiers next to him couldn't help but make noise, and they scolded Fielding under the city, some scolded him for being arrogant, some scolded him for not measuring his own strength, and some scolded him for killing himself......
Ziggy still whispered beside Roddy: "The Duke doesn't pay attention to it, and directly let the soldiers release arrows to drive him away! Now the overall situation is important! There are still many things to be done these days." And that plan of adults......"
Roddy sighed, barely suppressed the impulse in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to refuse......
Fielding, who was under the city walls, suddenly sneered: "Your Excellency Duke Tulip, don't you really dare? Don't you dare to accept a challenge between warriors?Or does your bravery only exist in legends? It seems that my fiancée, Miss Muse, is wrong......
Imperial capital. In the palace, Andy was "watching" the scene in front of Thundering City with his eyes closed, but when he heard the last words of Pu Erding, Andy's face changed suddenly.
"It's over. That kid is going to fight everything!"
The words "fiancée" seemed to hit Roddy's heart very well. His body shook violently, and his eyes immediately widened.
The impulse in my heart just now was finally suppressed, but at this moment, that impulse suddenly turned into a monstrous anger and burned violently.
Fiancee?
Fiancee!!
Fiancee!?
Roddy almost squeezed a sentence out of his throat: "What did you just say?"
Fielding smiled faintly: "I just said that I have heard my fiancée, Miss Muse, mention your bravery many times in Roland 6, but I didn't expect you to dare to accept a warrior's challenge......"
"Prepare the horses!" Before Fielding could finish speaking, Roddy had already snapped, turned and walked behind the wall!
"Lord Duke......" Ziggy followed closely behind, and couldn't help but want to dissuade him, but Roddy glanced at Zige. Said coldly: "I said prepare horses!"
Ziggy pressed Roddy's gaze and couldn't help but shudder. Immediately struck a thrill. That kind of gaze was like a real body, and the deep chill made Zig couldn't help but take a step back immediately, and the next half of the sentence was subconsciously swallowed back into his stomach.
Roddy strode under the walls, his eyes filled with a burning fire...... Fiancee?!
Luo Di held his dragon tooth sword tightly, as if his hands were trembling, and with every step he walked out, the momentum on his body became more and more violent, and finally he turned over and rode on the war horse Garros under the city, watching the domain gate in front of him slowly open.
The soldiers on both sides looked at the great commander in their hearts with great reverence, and made a way.
Although Fielding had a faint smile on his face, his eyes were cold. Watching the city gate open, the tulip duke rushed out of the domain gate on a black war horse.
He smiled faintly and jumped on his war horse, but he didn't catch up, just shouted: "This is too close to your city wall, since it is a fair duel, I ask that it be held in the middle of the battlefield!"
With that, he turned his horse's head and stepped back.
Luo Di followed him closely, and the two of them and two horses galloped to the middle of the battlefield, which was the same distance from the city wall and the camp of the Roland coalition army, and Luo Di said coldly: "It's almost here, right?"
Feeling that knife-like gaze was very piercing in his face, Fielding couldn't help frowning, and said coldly: "Okay, let's do it here!"
Luo Di slowly picked up the spear on his horse, looked at Fielding in front of him, and said coldly: "You said Miao Si is your fiancée?"
"Miaosi......" Puerding said lightly: "It seems that her memory of you is really good, and even Mingyu told you...... Yes, Miaosi is indeed my fiancée...... I guess that's what you're most concerned about right now, right? If it weren't for that, you wouldn't have accepted my challenge, would you?"
Luo Di's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, you deliberately used this to provoke me and lure me out?"
Fielding said proudly: "I am the paladin of the temple! Originally, Miao Si was my fiancée, but after she came to the Northwest Prairie last time, she ignored me when she went back, and because of you, she strongly opposed this war and angered the elders of the temple, if it weren't for me, she would have been executed a long time ago! I heard her occasionally mention it, and I knew that you met in the northwest! Your Excellency Duke Tulipfan, whether as a knight or a man, I will definitely challenge you! I'll prove to Myosi who the real hero is!"
Luo Di didn't know what kind of mood it was in his heart at the moment, after so long, he could naturally feel the subtle emotions he had for the Ten Black Veil Sage in his heart...... If there is a woman in this world who is Nicole and cares about herself, then the ten wonderful silks on the Roland 6 in the north are undoubtedly one!
Thinking of the day when Miaosi left, on the northwest wilderness, the method fluttered, and the sentence sitting on the horse: "You don't forget me, I don't forget you!" Luo Di felt a pain in his heart, and subconsciously said: "She...... How is she now?"
Fielding said coldly: "Not good! Duke Tulip, Myosi is the most holy girl in the temple, and the goddess loved by all our holy knights! This is my Fielding's fiancée! But now she is imprisoned by the temple elders because of you!
Roddy gritted his teeth and said slowly, "So, are you trying to kill me?"
Fielding said lightly: "Yes, Your Excellency Duke Tulip." I'm going to kill you, not just for the temple, for my faith...... It wasn't until she went to the Northwest that she agreed to my marriage proposal...... But everything has changed since she came back! I have seen her sitting in the corner of the temple crying several times...... Your Excellency Duke Tulip, it's all because of you, because you stole her heart with the devil's methods!"
At this point, Fielding picked up his spear and shouted, "Duke Tulip, take up your spear, let us have a duel! If you kill me, then Myosi will be yours!"
Roddy's gaze was completely cold, he stared at the Paladin of Roland Big 6 in front of him, and then said slowly in a low tone: "You are wrong! Whether I kill you or not, Miaosi is mine!"
