Volume 2: The Game of Zero Chapter 36: The Battle of the Roses (10)

Celine Weiner's eyes were clouded, and after a long time, she nodded with difficulty and said, "Yes." ”

The figures of the three guards guarding beside her were slightly leaked, and their vigilance against the four people beside them was also lowered, wanting to be on guard against the people around them at all times, which was not a small drain on mental power.

"It's a pleasure to work with."

Zhu Yaotang always had a bright smile on the face of a middle-aged uncle, and Celine looked a little crooked. She couldn't quite understand the brains of these strangers, why they could still laugh and laugh for so long in such a dangerous environment.

She had heard some rumors about them, but even if they could be resurrected, shouldn't they cherish life?

Before entering here, there were many strangers in the territory of the Marquis of Weiner, and she had seen many of them. These strangers, both male and female, gave her a very bad impression, rude and self-righteous.

The three people in front of her were one of the few strangers she had ever seen, and compared to the previous exaggerated Meng Lang, these three people may have been a little more cautious and polite. Or rather, it's more in line with their rules here.

Seeing this situation, Ning He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, at least there were no more enemies.

After a while, Ann Linton and George Rooney had already returned to their own personal guards, and they led their men to the sides of each other, and soon there were only Ning He, Zhu Yaotang, Guan Yiwen, Zhongshan Yu and Celine in the open space in front of the passage behind them, a total of eight people.

The passage on both sides of them is full of people, except for An Li and his personal guards on the left, the rest are the elite of the city guards wearing exquisite armor, and the second commander of the city guards led by them stood side by side with An Li, looking at the only passage on the opposite side of the square without squinting.

The dress of the wolf tooth mercenary group on the right is in stark contrast to the city guards on the left, these mercenaries are in casual armor, many accessories have obvious stitching marks, and the personal style is very prominent, and the two sides are two completely different styles.

"What's going to happen next?" Celine had a little expectation and fear of the unknown in her heart, and the two emotions were mixed together.

She was already a curious person, otherwise she wouldn't have come to participate in this rose duel with only a few guards around her without hiding from her father.

Girls who love to laugh won't be too lucky.

This is what her father, Huto Weiner, said to her, and Celine has always recognized it. Because she is beautiful enough, behind her is the Marquis of Weiner, one of the hereditary marquis of the Kingdom of Io, and behind her is the entire Weiner family.

People like her are naturally not bad luck, and the journey from childhood to adulthood has been smooth, even if she meets Aeor King Jeffrey Ramsay, she can also get the king's doting as a junior. Celine remembers that when all the nobles were in the palace with their heirs, she and Nancy were the only ones who could run freely in the palace, and they had the "honorable" deeds of sitting on the king's lap and pulling the king's beard in front of everyone.

Nancy, Nancy Hobbes.

Celine thought of her sister, who was a few months older than herself, the daughter of Duke Ellie Hobbs, a woman who was even more favored than Celine.

Celine's eyes looked at the piles of people in the square, the people in the six passages had arrived, and six figures had appeared in the center of the square, they were the representatives of each passage, discussing the future. The person sent by them was Zhu Yaotang, and Celine's eyes were complicated, with some jealousy and envy.

These people are all here for Nancy Hobbs.

Here, she, Celine Weiner, is not at all special.

In the center of the square, Zhu Yaotang looked at the two people around him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and beside him were the two marquis who had been all the way before, and the other three, through the dialogue between the two marquis, he could see it to some extent......

"Tidia Karl, I didn't expect you to come."

An Li looked at the blonde young man on the left with a flamboyant expression, his brows furrowed slightly.

The blonde young man named Tidia looked at the middle-aged Marquis An Li with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I haven't seen Marquis Linton, and we haven't seen each other since last year's Spring Hunt in Wangcheng. ”

An Li nodded noncommittally, and George on the other side also saw an acquaintance, "Little Bello and the third heir of the Addams family, what are you doing here?" ”

George had a serious expression, and to outsiders it seemed that he was concerned about the elders for the younger ones, but An Li on the side clearly saw that George O's broad palm was caressing the scepter authority, which was a signal that he wanted to do it.

The corners of An Li's mouth smiled slightly, looking at the two young men and women opposite.

Perhaps, I will see another show of broken watermelon later.

"Uncle Rooney, I am here to witness the arrival of a great moment, and not to participate in any struggle." Compared to Tidia, Gaspar Bello, an ordinary and ordinary young man, was wearing a pure white robe outlined in gold thread, and his smile was warm.

Liz Adams, the third heir of the Addams family, looked at Giorgio and smiled, "Marquis Rooney, I'm afraid I don't need to tell you about my purpose, right?" ”

Georgio's expression froze, and his hand holding the scepter tightened.

......

Douglas Adams was surrounded by a lot of clergy and church warriors, these warriors were the most elite "cloaked warriors" in the Church of Light, but here they withdrew their conspicuous clothes and replaced them with the most ordinary warrior clothes of the church.

The samurai were all dressed in light gray robes, and under the robes were covered with the finest standard light armor, each of which was tailored to the samurai himself, and at the same time had the best mobility and protection.

The priests were dressed in white robes, and many of them still held a light version of the "Enlightenment" in their hands or around their waists. This is the source of everything in the Church of Light, it is said that the first Pope of Light obtained it from the carrier of the God of Light walking in the earth, the original version is only a thousand words, and then after the compilation and expansion of successive popes, the "Enlightenment" in the church temple has reached an astonishing thickness, and people who are not with great perseverance can no longer fully learn it.

To this day, the current Pope Sid has taken over the task and is still making additions, and he also pioneered the deletion and supplementation.

put forward the slogan of "Light and God Embrace the World, "Qiming" Varies from Time to Time", and began to delete and replace some outdated content.

Surrounded by the priests and priests of the Church, Douglas made his way through the final passage to the heart of the Rose Grove.

There were only two entrances, one behind him and one across from the Sanctuary.

Douglas's gaze crossed the glittering altar, above which was a clear blue, the only place in the entire rose grove that was transparent, and the sunlight poured down, reflecting the whole altar of sacredness.

In the passage opposite the shrine, several heavily armored soldiers were the first to come out, and after confirming that the surroundings were safe, they expanded out of the passage, staring at them with fierce eyes. Then out of the passage came the crossbowmen, who quickly pulled out a fan-shaped bow and aimed their arrows at them.

Douglas frowned slightly, it didn't feel good to be being targeted with a weapon.

The priests and samurai beside him had also unfurled, and they confronted each other with unkind faces.

Finally, Kaitarn Adams stepped out of the shadows of the opposite passage, his handsome features and long flowing blond hair, which gave a very stunning feeling in the light, and Keitane's mature temperament was revealed at this moment. He didn't stop after walking out of the passage, and reached out to push away the servants and guards beside him who wanted to stop him from moving forward.

He stepped out of the crowd and walked to the altar, which was about half a meter high. The shrine is a circular platform with a radius of about five meters, just right for two people to duel.

"Smack."

Kaitahn stepped onto the Sanctuary, his sword unsheathed, and he looked at his brother Douglas, who was almost in step with him. He smiled, the two of them were indeed quite synchronous, worthy of being blood relatives.

The sword in Douglas's hand was also unsheathed, and unlike before, the sword in his hand was not his own, but a holy weapon that Pope Sid had prepared for him in the Church of Light, a papal sword that had been preserved for hundreds of years and had been carefully cared for and polished.

It is made of a special material, with pure white wavy patterns on the sword, a pure white crystal inlaid in the hilt and cross, and golden silk threads that spread from the end of the hilt to the tip of the sword.

This papal sword is less like a weapon for battle, more like a work of art, a work of art that should be enshrined on a high platform.

The sun shone on the sword, and the papal sword reflected a holy circle of light. The priests and warriors behind Douglas bowed their heads and muttered prayers. On the other side, the kings and the people of Kaitarn squinted, and many of them still used their blades to make a clanging sound to resist the brilliance.

The Church of Light can be popular in World One for half of the continent, encompassing the entire Io Kingdom, which naturally has its own uniqueness.

Kaitarn above the altar was unmoved, his sword as black as ink, contending with the shining papal sword on the other side, as if all the light could illuminate it.

The Iron Sword, the famous sword of the Addams family, when this sword appears in the hands of which heir, the choice of the next head of the Addams family is already indisputable.

The tradition has been inherited since ancient times, and so are the rules.

"My dear brother, I thought you and I could walk side by side instead of facing each other like we do now," said Kaitarn, in a loud voice. ”

"It's useless to talk too much, we don't have a choice now." Douglas gritted his teeth slightly and took the lead in swinging his first sword.

The sword was like a clarion call for war between the two armies, and the clergy and warriors behind him drew their weapons one after another, avoiding the shrine and rushing towards the kingship opposite.

"Ugh."

Kaitahn shook his head slightly, and he began to move forward, the iron sword in his hand moving.

The two were ten meters apart, and Douglas's air swing had no substance, but it cut off all possibilities.

Swords face each other!

This is a contest between the royal and clerical factions.

This is a battle between the first and second heirs of the Adams family.

At the same time, this is also a rivalry between the elder brother and the younger brother.
