Chapter 223: Envoy 8
The dinner was very grand that day, and the mellow wine was even poured directly into the huge wine pool for others to taste, and seeing Ed's preference for fruits, the Grand Duke of Burgundy ordered a frame of unknown fruits to be brought out, and the freshness was never more than a day before picking, Ed was curious about how these were transported, as if the Wolf's Tooth Castle was not located on a steep mountain, but in the middle of the city.
The enthusiasm exuded by the other party was suffocating, even the most critical envoy could not ask for more at this time, and after reluctantly rejecting the generosity of the other party to offer a beautiful woman, the Grand Duke proposed a new program, "I saw it before, it seems that Ed your friend is somewhat interested in the two guards at the door, why don't we arrange a competition to help the wine, rest assured, the best magician is a guest in my castle, and no one will be harmed!"
Chesterton, who was sitting below, immediately glared at Philip III when he heard this, and told him to fight the lifeless dead thing, and said that no one would be injured after treatment, so he was sure that he couldn't beat it?
Ed really wanted to see the power of the so-called Golem, he was naturally full of curiosity about the world as a time-traveler, even if the engraving did not always collect information The task required him to not miss any opportunity to see more, but on the other hand, the boy saw through the other party's plan, and like himself, the Burgundians wanted to use naked force to suppress to show their strength and gain the initiative.
Seeing that Ed groaned for a while, the corner of the Grand Duke of Burgundy showed an imperceptible smile, clapped his hands, and naturally someone left to make preparations, and not long after, a young man dressed in white walked in surrounded by several beautiful women, and saw that Ed seemed to be flustered for a short time, and then greeted the master. said with a smile: "I was still thinking about which great man was favored by the Grand Duke and was hosting a banquet to welcome him, but I didn't expect that such a young knight would break through to the silver level at such an age, which can be regarded as promising!"
This person seemed to see through Ed's strength at a glance, but the young man didn't sense any detection fluctuations.
"The master is joking. If it weren't for the fact that the master has been tired of the hustle and bustle these days, and only loves to linger with beautiful women, I would have to invite the master to the banquet!" said Philip III, giving him a mysterious look, as if he had an ulterior motive, and the two of them immediately burst into laughter, all without saying a word.
The Grand Duke said the intention of inviting the other party, and the magician was also a little interested in seeing the wonderful fight, but he was disappointed when he heard that it was not Ed who ended, and promised to ensure the safety of the personnel. Chesterton, already indignant, pushed his glass away, seemingly very unhappy.
"Ah! I was negligent, how can I invite this knight to fight without a lottery, how about ten star crystals, if the knight of Chesterton wins, I will give you ten tempered star crystals on the spot." "The Grand Duke's hand is not small, Chesterton's original two-sided giant battle axe with amazing size only added two star crystals, and now he uses it instead of the ordinary battle axe in the army, and it feels like he can't use it. At this time, when I heard about such a rich reward, my unjust mood moved. Looked at Ed for his opinion.
"What would he pay if he lost?" Ed asked rhetorically.
"Ed, you are also a master of learning, how can I ask for your things, in this way, if he wins, he will have ten star crystals, and if he loses, he can only take three. How?"
Such an unfair bet, and the fact that there is a master of magic on the sidelines to ensure the safety of his life, is something that no one will decide, Ed nodded, knowing what the other party is paying attention to. But it didn't hurt Chesterton, so he began to prepare.
Waiting for someone outside to inform the venue that the preparation was completed, the group moved to a special competition place, deep into the castle underground, it seems that it was originally a place similar to the Colosseum, there are high stands in a circle, and there are faint dried blood stains on the solid stone ground below, and I don't know who fought here before.
Opposite Chesterton, several strong servants brought in a movable slab of hard stone, on which the four-armed golem had been seen was half-crouched and curled up, half as tall as Eddard.
Seeing this scene, the boy's heart moved, and he secretly guessed that this golem might have a weakness that was difficult to move, or it would take a lot of energy to start running before people could move it in.
Seeing the position of the idle personnel, at the behest of the Grand Duke, Barlogo personally jumped out of the stands, walked behind the golem and gently manipulated it on a certain mechanism, and activated it with a low chant and psionic fluctuations.
"Click" There was a sound like a mechanical friction gear turning, and the golem quickly swung the four huge iron swords around its body, stretched out its entire body, and turned into the huge oppressive figure again, and then without hesitation, it locked the human in front of him as its enemy, and took a step towards him.
One step down, a slight vibration sensation immediately came, obviously the other party has a huge mass, and the sword flower that was waved just now showed extraordinary agility, Chesterton was shocked in his heart, and he had not recovered from the surprise that the other party was actually able to move, and the strong spirit of the martial artist had made him make the most correct choice in advance, and jumped to the back to open up the distance between each other.
"Big guy, come on, let's have some fun, let you taste mine, awesome!" said the last two words, Chesterton realized that he had mastered the rhythm of the other party's march, and as soon as the psionic energy exploded, his body had accelerated and rushed up, and a double-sided battle axe burned with psionic flames from the bottom to the top.
During the days of following Eddard's side, Chesterton did not waste his skills, the realm that was not very stable when he was just promoted to the first rank has completely stabilized, and the cooperation between the body and energy has gradually become seamless, and the spiritual energy of the silver-level knight suddenly burst out, and the whole audience is churning and spreading around him, and his every move is unstoppable.
Barlogo, who had gradually retreated to the wall, did not look worried at all, he was confident.
Sure enough, the four-armed golem that was close to Chesterton was not destroyed by the flawed movement of the marching movement, but instead waved the weapons in each hand without leaking, organizing a storm of blades, clanging loudly, not only blocking the opponent's attacking axe with the first blow, but also immediately launched a fierce counterattack.
"Why, maybe?" Chesterton barely had time to be surprised, barely parrying the enemy's ferocious attack with his two-handed weapon, but in a matter of moments, he had already been hit several times by his opponent. (To be continued......)
