Chapter 55: Clearing
Seeing that his boss drained the wine glass, he was still nimble, as if he was fine, and the knights around him cheered loudly.
"It's worthy of being a leader, so bold, drinking should be so refreshing, unlike that kid, what kind of ability is touching his lips, if someone drinks with me like this, I would have duel with him a long time ago!"
"Nonsense, who can get such a good wine from you, it's a waste, if you have the ability, you can try to lick it, maybe it's worse than this kid!"
Even Delia couldn't calm down, she walked up to Ed's side and looked at him with concern, the legendary equipment in her hand, the shepherd's cane was ready for several magic spells, ready to be released to the boy at any time.
At this time, a knight patted Tennison on the shoulder, "Hey, brother, I'll make another offer one last time, a full set of armor and weapons, all forged with good star concentrate, plus a war horse with unicorn blood, how about changing your hammer, think about it again?"
Tennison glanced at him with disdain, raised a finger and shook it in front of him.
"You and I are stupid, just by looking at the scene, I know that Lord Howard is winning, Ed, this kid I understand, I can drink a sip and not pour it is already a super level of performance, frankly speaking, I am a little stronger than me, but the level gap is too big, it is not willpower that can be overcome, you kid, you still want to bluff me at this time, and the unicorn war horse, why don't we change sides and gamble." ”
"Ha, don't be stupid, don't gamble if you don't gamble!" Seeing that Tennison didn't take the bait, the other party turned his head and continued to watch the game in the field, but suddenly put on a look of surprise, his eyes widened, and his mouth was open.
Tennison looked at this guy in bewilderment, and thought that he could put his fist in his mouth by himself, "What happened again, what a fuss about you being surprised like this...... Ahh......h
The crowd, including the Howard Knights, was probably as shocked as the two of them, because not only did Ed not fall, but he also picked up his glass and put it to his lips.
Raising his head, exactly the same action as his opponent, Ed drank the ice and fire stone wine in the cup, and took a few steps steadily to put the empty wine glass in front of Howard, signaling to continue.
Howard raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, but his hand did not listen, and rubbed it on his forehead several times.
"I'm wrong, this kid really drank it, can he still move?"
This time, the voices of the surrounding knights were obviously much quieter, and just now almost everyone swore to their companions that Ed was definitely going to lose, but the young man slapped everyone with practical actions, and one cup was not enough!
"This ...... How is that possible?
Someone asked the arbiter with his eyes, and these knights who had been supervising with psionic energy all shook their heads and loudly announced that no one had fouled so far, in fact, there was no need for them to say, every knight present could feel the stimulation of other psionic energy with their own psionic energy, and whether these two people had used psionic energy to relieve their drunkenness could be distinguished with a little care.
Ed actually didn't know anything at this time, after all, the wine that only a gold-level knight could enjoy was very powerful, not something he could absorb at his current level, and he could only resist such a small sip with the greatest willpower he had used before, and after drinking the whole cup, he had completely lost control of his body.
All the actions after putting down the cup are actually done by engraving, and for this man-made object, it has no idea what it means to be drunk, and it faithfully carries out the host's orders, and the goal is to win the game.
Howard slowly stood up and walked towards the sealed keg, since Ed hadn't fallen, the gamble had to go on, his steps were vain and he stumbled a little.
There was his deputy next to him hurriedly came over, and it was not easy to help him in front of everyone, but he opened the seal in place of Howard, set up the wine glasses of the two, and prepared to pour the wine.
As soon as he poured a small glass, Howard, who was staring at him closely, called a halt.
"Okay, that's all, give me the wine, put it away for me, no one is allowed to touch it again, or I will duel with him!"
After speaking to his deputy, he shoved half a glass of wine from in front of him to Ed's side.
"Boy, you have the ability to drink this cup, if you are not drunk, I will admit that I lost, this good wine can not be drunk anymore, if you drink too much, you can kill both of us, you know!"
The surrounding knights are also rare to see their leader drunk, looking at his appearance, it is estimated that it will definitely be impossible to drink again, for silver-level knights, drinking this kind of wine is also considered to be overstepping, one cup is already capped, no matter how much no one can bear.
Now that Howard has spoken out to admit that he is in place, the key to determining the outcome of this gamble depends on whether Ed can drink this half cup without getting drunk.
All eyes were on the boy, holding their breath for his decision.
I saw Ed with his head down, no one could see his expression, as if he was asleep, but suddenly he raised his hand, and with a precise click, he copied half a glass of ice and fire stone wine on the table in front of him in his hand, and when he looked up, he drank it cleanly, without saying a word of nonsense.
"Good!" Howard screamed as his eyes blurred, and although he was drunk, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
The surrounding knights were also calmed by Ed's refreshing movements, no matter whether the next teenager could hold it or not, this courage alone was impressive, as the king of the battlefield, the psionic knight Megatron Continent relied on the fearlessness of charging into battle, and the boldness of this kid in front of him was a worthy companion on the battlefield, and he didn't have to worry that he would be half-hearted in the face of a strong enemy, dragging his own hind legs, there is only one word, rush!
Everyone cheered loudly for Eddard, especially the knights who had come with him, their companions were so strong, they all felt like they were shining with their faces.
"I know, this kid is good, our expeditionary force is going to fight ten Ingill knights on the battlefield of Ovalé, which one frowned and said nothing!"
"Okay, it's really a terrible young man, just rush at your bearing, my Tiger Howard can be considered to be convinced! Boy, give you a Jianyì, if you are not drunk, try to mobilize your spiritual energy, this will be more effective in cultivation!"
After taking a breath, Howard stood up with a shaky wobble, stretched out his arm to let the adjutant knight support him, and pressed all his body weight on the other party at once, seeing that the adjutant's face immediately turned purple, but fortunately, the spiritual energy was instantly activated to resist the weight of the strong man's hill.
"By the way, what about that girl, oh, look at my mouth, Commander Delia, our knights will be handed over to you, I'll go rest first, let's talk about it tomorrow, tomorrow!"
After speaking, he didn't say more, let the adjutant help him to walk to the back resting place, and didn't track out whether Ed was drunk or not from beginning to end, so he rushed at the heroism of the young man, and he lost the bet.
After taking over the control of Ed's body, the Mind Mark completed the host's orders, drank the last half of the wine and won the bet, and then received Howard's words, "At this time, it will be beneficial to cultivate spiritual energy." ”
"Conducting a simulation attempt, it is speculated that the information is highly credible, and for safety reasons, the host's body is controlled to find a safe environment for psionic cultivation. ”
Howard, who was half-drunk, suddenly heard another suppressed noise from the people behind him, "No, is it ......?"
He turned his head slightly, looked back, and saw that the boy who was fighting against him was alone, standing up and walking slowly out of the hall.
The knights on both sides of the aisle stepped back automatically, making way for the boy to make way for the young man, and no one dared to stand in front of the little knight, and they watched him leave with admiration as they talked to each other about how this incredible scene had happened.
"Hey, you see, he can still move, oh my God!"
"It's incredible, look at how steady he walks, I bet, if this is also drunk, I probably haven't been sober since I was born. ”
"It's because I feel wrong, he really doesn't seem to have mobilized his spiritual energy, how did he do it, it's amazing!"
Howard retracted his gaze, shook his head and muttered, "What a terrible boy, if a person's spirit can really be so strong and can enjoy the Ice and Fire Stone Wine at the bronze level, what do you think he will go in the future?"
The adjutant who was holding him touched his nose and replied to his leader, "Maybe it's just that he has a special constitution and is not afraid of alcohol, right?"
"Hehe, you haven't tried this wine, I don't understand, how can something that can be used as a military material by the gold level be simply made of alcohol, hmm, you have to quickly change this treasure to a different place to collect it when you go back, if that kid gets a benefit, maybe he will have to come to me and ask for it!"
On the other side, Delia and Tennison and the others also followed closely behind Ed and walked out, she didn't know how the boy was doing now, but it didn't seem to be a big problem.
Seeing Ed's footsteps walking towards the camp outside the door, she instructed several knights to send him back safely, and casually blessed several of them with a few skillful magic skills, including Ed's favorite spiritual fire, and then turned around and returned to the banquet, winning the bet, and the knights inside will become her subordinates, so they naturally need to be more familiar.
Tennison was left by Delia's side to help introduce her, and the guy reluctantly watched Eddard, the hero of them, leave, and returned to the hall, where he saw the guy who had made a bet with him looking at him with a smile of reluctance.
Ed, who was engraved and controlled by the body, left the distance and suddenly heard a miserable cry from behind, "Ah, my full set of weapons and armor, and the unicorn war horse!"
There was a knight next to him who knew the cause and effect, and added fuel and vinegar to the fact that someone had made a bet with Tennison at that time, and he was sending equipment and horses, but Tennison just didn't believe that Ed could win and told everyone, which would probably make his intestines repent!
Several people giggled and sent Ed all the way to their army, and when the boy walked to the tent he had been using to quiet down, they said hello to André and returned to the town.
This would make Ed's own consciousness not as unconscious as before, and he was experiencing a rare opportunity.
