Richard smiled and asked, "Since you think so, why don't you give me an answer?" ”

Wald sneered, "There are many strong men who are stronger than Lord Gordon, and there are also many nobles who have more troops than Lord Gordon. But none of them are Gordon, never!"

Richard nodded in agreement and said, "I'm not a father, and I won't be like him." However, my father and I were in different circumstances, so we were bound to have different ways of doing things. The path to which my father was accustomed was not suitable in what is now Akmund. So as long as I am given some more time, I don't think my achievements will be worse than his. ”

Wald chuckled a few times and said, "Lord Gordon is not perfect, in fact, his shortcomings are obvious, and we all know them. But that's Gordon, and that's who we're willing to follow!"

Richard took a deep breath and pressed the man's shadow down in his mind again. In the past, when Richard was confronted with a problem, he would always think about what he would do if it was Gordon. Now, as his experience increases, Richard begins to deliberately avoid thinking about Gordon, especially before some important decisions, and consciously suppresses Gordon's shadow. Richard will now only make decisions according to his own judgment, which he thinks is the most rational and correct decision. As Richard just said, different circumstances will lead to different ways to solve problems. Copying Gordon's method will not necessarily work well.

But Richard believed that after a while, he would no longer have to deliberately imitate or avoid that man. By that time, I'll be truly mature.

Thinking of this, Richard raised his head, looked at the fighter who was a full head and a half above him, and asked, "You don't have to be my follower, you can continue to serve Akmund like Asiris, and even become a lord within the family in the future, this is a viable option." Even if you refuse to stay, I will do my best to compensate for the years I have paid for my family. Why do you have to be my enemy?"

Wald grinned and said, "How can there be so many whys!"

Richard's voice turned flat and said, "If you can't take this plane, the Holy Alliance will not recognize you." The warriors here belong to Akmund, and not every one of them is willing to betray him. Take a step back, even if they are willing to follow you in rebellion, will you succeed? Look at the strength of the army behind me, this is enough to level your troops! If necessary, I can gather several times as many troops. Are you going to bury these warriors behind you for your ambitions?"

"Ambition?" said Wald, a meaningful smile.

He glanced back at the soldiers and generals who were neatly arrayed, and as expected, many of them had a mixture of despair and determination in their eyes. One only has to look at the number of knights in Richard to see that this is definitely a war of defeat and unwon. But they did not lack the courage to fight to the death. But more people are confused and confused. Because Richard's troops are flying the banner of Akmund, although the badge has been changed to Richard's own Volcanic World Tree, it is still the logo of Akmund. From the conversation between Wald and Richard, no matter how dull they were, they all knew that the young man in front of them was the son of Gordon, the current patriarch of Akmund. These warriors wondered, why fight with the clan?

Obviously, if Wald really decided to go to war, these fighters might not have obeyed orders.

Wald shook his head and said, "It doesn't have much to do with ambition. It doesn't matter what the reason is, though, I now have a group of fighters who are willing to follow me. No matter what decision I make, they will support me. So if you try hard, you can still cause you a lot of trouble. But I don't want them to die like this, so I have a mention yì, you and I have a duel. If I win, the plane will be handed over to me for thirty years, and I will return it to you after thirty years. If I lose, then my troops will surrender. I hope you don't embarrass them, many of them didn't know what was going to happen before today. ”

Richard said indifferently: "But I don't see the need to duel with you." My knights can tease your army if they strike. I am first the patriarch of Akmund, then the marshal of the army, and finally the strong man who fights for the battle. ”

Wald smiled: "You won't refuse." ”

Richard thought about it, nodded and said, "Indeed!"

Wald laughed, rubbing his hands together as his iron fists made a screeching sound. He turned around and shouted to the warriors on his side: "Look, this is the current head of the family of Akmund, and the son of Lord Gordon, Richard, Richard Akmund! I will fight him to the death, and if I lose, you will lay down your arms and surrender! If I win, those who are willing to follow me can stay, and those who are not willing to stay can follow Master Richard back to Akmund,

Do you understand everything?!"

The warriors and generals looked at each other, at a loss. Wald, however, did not explain, turned to Richard, raised his hands, and said, "Let's get started!"

At this time, Aceris couldn't help but shout: "Wald! What are you doing, you are doing this, you are also making an enemy of us!"

In Asiris's mouth, we are referring to Semir and Han Erdong, the people who are still alive among the thirteen knights.

"I know what I'm doing!" the fighter waved his hand at Asiris in a subtle gesture. This is a popular gesture among the Thirteen Knights, meaning "Leave it to me!" Whenever this gesture is made, it means asking for the full trust of his companions. Although it was in this situation, at first glance at the gesture, Aceris suddenly felt that he did not know what to say, although he still felt uneasy in his heart. Aceris and Han Erdong only touched the bottom line, but did not do anything truly treacherous. But what Wald is doing now can be regarded as a formal betrayal.

Betrayal is one of the worst acts in the Norland tradition. Even if Wald found the forces behind him, he managed to hold the Rock Heights, but his reputation in the aristocratic world was ruined. And the most important thing is that as one of the Thirteen Knights, no matter how unruly he is, he can not serve Richard, but he should not betray Gordon's heir.

At this time, Richard frowned slightly, and the moment Wald put on a posture, the momentum soared into the sky, which actually made Richard feel like he was facing an ancient beast!

Wald's strength was by no means the strongest Richard had ever faced, but the pressure he brought to Richard was not even much different from that of the Void Prime. Richard was already extremely experienced in dealing with enemies, and immediately knew that Wald belonged to the kind of berserker who was extremely explosive and could pour out most of his fighting spirit in a short period of time. This type of enemy may not be the most powerful, but it is definitely among the most dangerous. Even if they face opponents who are stronger than themselves, they may be able to win by relying on the powerful explosive power of the moment.

Wald did not advance but retreated, and the distance between him and Richard widened by thirty meters, and then stopped. The fighter knew that Richard was a mage, so he pulled away first to show fairness.

Although the distance was far away, Richard felt even more pressure. Intuitively sensing mortal danger, he was screaming in his consciousness, reminding Richard repeatedly.

Richard was so angry that he immediately pulled out the moonlight with his backhand, but this was not enough, and threw aside the Destiny Twins, the Divine Slash, and the Extermination, minimizing the burden, and then holding the moonlight with both hands, staring at Wald. The pressure almost made Richard attack first, but he endured it in the end.

Wald's eyes showed surprise and appreciation, he didn't expect that his murderous aura and coercion would be taken over by Richard in this way, and he was silent and looked very relaxed.

"Very good, boy, I warn you one last time, it's best to fight me with all your strength at the beginning, or you'll regret it!" said Wald.

Richard's handsome cheeks trembled slightly, and the knuckles of the hand holding the knife turned white from too much force. Without Wald's reminder, Richard would never dare to spare his hand. In the face of such an opponent, if there is the slightest reservation, it is undoubtedly looking for death.

Wald moves!

He took several steps in one big stride, and when he stepped on the earth, he made a dull thunderous footstep that made the whole earth tremble!

As soon as Wald activated, Richard immediately put away his knife and stood upright, hurriedly reciting the incantation, and the huge magic power immediately swung in all directions like water waves, and everyone had a strange feeling, looking at Richard's figure There was a sense of unreality.

Time stops. Richard used this magic as soon as possible, and then for a short period of time for the spell to take effect, Richard continued to cast six instantaneous spells and two spells that required a short spell. Four of the eight spells are self-reinforcing Wings of Fire, which is fast, quick-witted, and can greatly increase the power of fire-based magic, while the other four spells, including Slowness, Curse, Liminification, and Weakness, are thrown at Wald. Then taking advantage of the last bit of time when time stopped, Richard activated the fiery bloodline ability at the same time.

Time stopped finally passing. Wald continued to rush like a ferocious beast, several flashes of magical light flashed through his body, and the negative magic released by Richard took effect one after another. However, Wald suddenly let out a roar like an ancient beast, and a layer of rich blood light appeared on his body, and he instantly cleared all the magic effects on his body! When the blood light surged, Wald's strength and speed increased sharply at the same time, and his instantaneous speed was not inferior to Richard!

In an instant, Richard lost what he thought was his greatest advantage, speed! Before the blood-colored light dissipated, Wald's attack would be impossible to dodge.

ps: Continue to rush to work tomorrow at noon, this can be expected.
