On the second day, Xiaobai came to Teyi Castle and did not accompany him with the Demon Suppression Array. 【】Feimu staff, the long skirt fluttered on his left side like snow, there was a unique cold and glamorous beauty in the gentleness; Qingchen was holding a purple gold gun and was dressed in black, flying on Xiaobai's right side, like a cute elf, but his face was tight and there was a murderous aura. Behind Bai Shaoliu, one left and one right, Tao Qi Taobao was still carrying two big flags - since Dan Zicheng had already shown the flag, then continue to carry it.

Behind him, seven disciples of the Hainan faction lined up in dark blue windbreakers, and the red sword behind them emitted a fan-shaped glow in the sky, reflecting everyone descending like a god. Bai Shaoliu only brought these people, not to help in the battle, but to make the scene gorgeous.

Look at the great love paladin White Lotus Zhenren, wearing a black battle armor that scatters colorful light, and the silver mask shines in the sun. The most special thing is that there is a huge essence lotus flower under his feet, flying in the sky like a white cloud carved out, Xiaobai stands in the heart of the lotus, the lotus petals are spread out layer by layer, and everyone who is accompanying him stands on the tip of a petal.

A huge white lotus in the clouds, reflecting the brilliant red glow in the sky, the knight in the Gongwei Flower Heart Lotus Terrace dressed in colorful light, slowly drifted from the sky above the sea to the front of Teyi City, this appearance is even more amazing than yesterday! Helen on the head of the city has already looked through the autumn water, and when she sees Bai Shaoliu coming like this, she is completely distracted, and her eyes are full of admiration when she opens her mouth.

Xiao Bai was stunned when Helen appeared, and Helen was not the only one who was shocked, and there were exclamations inside and outside the city of Tei! Even Xiao Bai himself was shocked - how could there be so many people? The walls of Tei Castle were already full of people, there were many people sitting, and there were many more people standing around these people who had seats. Looking outside the city, along the city wall and on the left and right sides, there are many men and women dressed in costumes and with their entourage, no less than 1,000 people. Some people also set up their seats and spread out large umbrellas. They all pointed at him and talked to each other.

Although there are many people, it is definitely not a battle formation. It seems that he has come to attend some kind of rally, what is going on, is it that there is a festival here just after the war? Bai Shaoliu had only seen this kind of scene in the New Year's goods gathering in his hometown when he was a child, but looking at the way these people dressed, talked and behaved, they were not rich or expensive, and they were not like the nearby countryside to go to the market?

Bai Shaoliu didn't know. The news of his duel with Fortimore had spread within a day. The Holy See army attacked Tei Castle quickly and stealthily. It wasn't until the dark creatures were summoned by Wu Tong to attack in a big way that the God Guardians of the countries of the Roba Alliance realized that there was a big event, and when they learned the news, the war was over, and then they heard that Bai Shaoliu, the killer from the Bishop of Zhixu. As a knight, for his lover Helen, he has to fight a duel with Fotimore.

A tragic battle, the end of which almost became a farce, and the noble guardians of the nearby countries rushed to Tey Castle to witness the duel. The second reinforcement that Cambydes hastily assembled did not make it to the battle. Halfway through, the leading figures rushed to Tei Castle to "watch" the duel. There are too many people here, and most of them have status. After consulting the king, the guards in charge of guarding the surrounding area also let them in.

As the saying goes, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds. As soon as there are too many people, things change their taste. These people had not experienced that terrible war, but they had heard that there was an Eastern knight who was going to fight a public duel with Fotimore, and many even took it as a kind of entertainment, and happily watched the gossip. The piles of bones that had piled up yesterday under Tej's castle had been cleared and replaced by a group of dignitaries from all over the world who were in high spirits, greeting each other. Talking about what they heard from each other. There were slightly exaggerated exclamations and laughter.

There are many nobles who have long heard that Eva Wiener, the owner of Tey Castle, is a beautiful woman, and now there is another Helen, known as the first beautiful priest of the Holy See, who also wants to infiltrate Tey Castle to offer her courtesy. Even the worst can be feasted on the eyes. But Tei Castle did not open its doors. Seeing that there were too many people, Montgoley II ordered the guards to maintain order, and after seeking Eva's permission, only nobles above the marquis were allowed to climb the walls to watch the battle, and the others stayed outside the city by themselves.

In the West, where the secular system is equal, the hierarchy in the bones is still quite strict, and the people who can come here are either high-ranking believers of the Holy See or high-ranking guardians of God. They are all people who have mastered magical miracles, but only a few are qualified to go to the city to watch the battle. Carlos Linton, the cousin of the Marquis de Linton, King of Spia, also came and took his seat in the middle of the tower. Outside the city was bustling like a festival, and a duel didn't know why these people were so excited? It was like waiting for a wonderful opera, and the two kings frowned slightly on the castle tower.

In any case, after such a tragic sacrifice by the Holy See army, people should not come here with such a state of mind. But this was not appropriate, and Montgory II preferred it, and his idea was that the kingdom would be at peace. Bai Shaoliu's gorgeous appearance. The atmosphere of the scene appeared for the first time, people got up and cheered and exclaimed, and there were noble ladies dressed in fancy clothes waving handkerchiefs to Xiaobai.

Xiao Bai led his "guard of honor" to the ground, the huge essence lotus flower under his feet turned into a Taoist auspicious cloud, and there was another burst of cheers, Tao Qi and Tao Bao behind Xiao Bai stared at the strangeness, and the people in the city and outside the city looked at them It was also another strangeness, Bai Shaoliu couldn't see his expression clearly with a mask, Gu Ying was smiling bitterly, and Qingchen was sneering.

As soon as Xiao Bai arrived, the sound of war drums came from the sky again, and two teams of golden invincible battle formations fell from the sky, and Fotimore stood in the center of the battle position. These two invincible formations were not here to help, but to the bodyguard of Yag, who accompanied Fotimore, who was not wearing the priestly garment of the cardinal archbishop today, but the dress of a secular baron. Dressed in a crimson velvet coat trimmed with white fur, two mink trims on the brim, and a pale silver ring with six silver balls, he walked beside Fortimore, with a charming smile on his handsome face and a gesture of demeanor, which attracted the attention of most of the women present, young and old, but more men looked at Fortimore.

Fortimore was wearing a silver armor of light, which was very dazzling in the sun, and the ground mask on the helmet was not pulled down, and there was a kind of difficulty on the angular face

of majesty and ferocity. He had no sword hanging from his waist, and he held a four-foot longbow with a specially designed arrow ring and three arrows. Each arrow is three feet long, and the sharp clusters of arrows resemble not metal, but transparent gemstones, which are purple, green, and orange. As soon as he appeared. People felt an indescribable sense of oppression, and they all unconsciously stopped their voices.

At this moment, a melodious trumpet sound came from the city of Tei, of course, it was not Wu Tong who was still lying unconscious in the castle's bedroom. It was the king's guard of honour lined up in two lines that Montgoli II came out.

Montgoli II walked to the center of the open space in front of the castle. He first turned to everyone in the city and said, "Dear distinguished friends, in the name of the king of the Duchy of Tulip, I have granted permission for two great earth knights to hold a duel here today. But let me tell you first. Just yesterday, the warriors of the Holy See and the warriors of Tey Castle fought a bloody battle against the dark forces of the entire Loba 6 Lands. Protect the peace and happiness of all people in this world. Please stand and pay a moment of silence to all the fallen warriors!"

The king also felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and asked everyone to stand and let the battlefield return to silence. After the salute, Montgoli II said in a loud voice: "The honorable Lord Fotimore has a duel with the knight Mr. Bai Shaoliu from afar. Because Bai Shaoliu's beloved lover Helen was pursued by Fotimore, I think you have already heard about the process of the incident. I have decided to pardon Helen and the magicians' crimes in the Duchy of Tulip first, whether or not they are charged. Because they have also established their merits in the war against the dark forces. ”

As soon as this sentence came out. Helen led the magicians out of the city gates to thank Montgory II. The king waved his hand and said, "Since the dispute has been settled by a duel, if Lord Fortimore wins, Philippe-Goeling and his men will magic; His Majesty the Holy See has authorized the Venerable Cardinal Cardinal, Lord Jorge, to make a full decision, and Lord Jorge has entrusted the decision to me, so I have made this decision. ”

Montgoley spoke very attentively to the status of the king, and when he spoke of pardons, he only referred to pardons within the Duchy of Tulip. That's what he has to do. At the same time, he also lifted Jorge out, emphasizing that the decision was made with the authorization of the Pope, and no one would hold him accountable for overstepping his authority.

After the explanation, there was no more nonsense, and Montgory II took a bow and a golden arrow from the guard, walked to the side of the field himself, and shot an arrow upwards into the sky. It was a ringing arrow, which flew out with a whistle and fell far away and stuck in the ground, about two hundred meters away. The crowd applauded the king's "high archery". Montgory II raised his hand to silence everyone, drew his sword, drew his sword, and drew a circle about a foot square, and then walked to the place where the arrow landed and drew the same circle.

Then His Majesty the King announced the rules of the duel -

Bai Shaoliu and Fotimore each stood in a circle, and if they walked out of *** during the game, they would admit defeat. The duel is compared to archery, because Bai Shaoliu is the challenger, so Fortimore shoots the arrow first. The king stressed that if the winner was decided, no one should make another move, and he tried to avoid harming the other's life.

Specifically, the rule is that each person shoots three arrows, and Fortimore shoots the first arrow. Then Bai Shaoliu shoots the first arrow, and then Fotimore shoots the second arrow, and so on. If anyone loses halfway through, then the duel is over, and after the three arrows have been fired, neither of them has conceded defeat, and His Majesty will decide the winner - it's a bit like a boxing match, where the final point is determined if the opponent is not knocked out within the allotted round. Under the attention of more than a thousand pairs of eyes, it is believed that Montgoli II could not be partial, but losing in the process of this archery duel is not as simple as falling in the boxing ring, and it may be fatal.

After announcing the rules, Montgoli II waved his hand: "Lord Fortimore, White Shaoliu Knight, you can stand in your place, if you have anything to say before the duel, please speak." ”

Bai Shaoliu walked to the middle of the field and looked at the circle drawn around him, and then looked at Fortimo in the distance, and said secretly in his heart: "The king's arrow is far enough, more than two hundred meters, at this distance, it is naturally easy for a magic archer to shoot a person to death, but the other party is also a master and can dodge if he is prepared, it is difficult to be fatal, it seems that this king does not want anyone to die here." At the same time, he also sighed in his heart, in fact, when a master like him and Fotimo shot ground arrows, it was unlikely that there would be room to dodge within a radius of two hundred meters, only hard connection.

At this moment, I heard Montgory II ask, "White Young Knight." Master Fotimore's bow and arrows are ready, but where are yours?"

Bai Shaoliu nodded slightly, took out a short red branch a few inches long from the bracer guard of his left arm, and unfolded it into an eight-inch small bow in his hand with a snap. Then he drew a long, pointed silver strip from the bracer of his right arm and said to the king, "These are my bow and arrows." ”

The crowd in the city was like a swarm of flies suddenly buzzing, and everyone began to talk again, compared to the knight's longbow in the hands of Fotimore, Bai Shaoliu's bow and arrows were simply children's toys, but they were so exquisite and beautiful.

The king did not rationalize the council. He asked calmly, "You only have one arrow." ”

Bai Shaoliu: "My bow doesn't necessarily need a tangible arrow. As he spoke, he raised the small bow and flicked the bowstring towards the sky. A red flame streamer shot out, scattering into a rain of fire in mid-air, like a grand fireworks. This scene is so gorgeous. Someone whistled and cheered, and no one dared to underestimate this little bow anymore. Someone else shouted, "Isn't this the bow and arrow of Cupid, the legendary goddess of love, like this?

To be honest, almost no one present was optimistic about Bai Shaoliu, and they all thought that it was impossible for him to win, but they just admired his courage. Now that Bai Shaoliu's arrow is still two hits, he may be able to resist it for a while. Then this duel is even more exciting. There are many people who just come to see the excitement, and if Fotimore shoots Bai Shaoliu down with one arrow, it will not be exciting enough.

Then the king turned to Fortimore and asked, "Your Excellency, you are still there."

Something to say?"

Fortimore asked coldly: "I just want to know, is Helen really this gentleman's lover?"

Why did he say this? Did he start to suspect Xiaobai's identity? At this time, Helen pushed Philip in a wheelchair and walked over. Saluted to Montgory II and said, "Your Majesty, please allow us to send blessings to Bai Shaoliu." ”

Montgory II: "Helen, did you hear what Lord Fortimore said? ”

Helen straightened her chest. Said proudly: "Yes." Of course, the White Lotus is the greatest lover in the world!"

Montgoli II turned around again and asked Bai Shaoliu, "Are you willing to accept the blessing before the duel?"

Bai Shaoliu nodded. Helen pushed her father and walked over. Just came to the front. I heard someone in the city shouting, "Kiss her, kiss him!" at first it was just one person, and then the shouts became one after another. Helen's face was flushed, and her breathing was scattered with excitement. But she looked directly at Bai Shaoliu and didn't bow her head, she raised a hand and stretched out a handkerchief to Bai Shaoliu.

The situation in the dueling arena at this time is like this. A group of dignitaries of high status were on the city walls. The others lined up on both sides of the ground under the city wall, and a large area of open land was vacant, and in the center of the field, Fotimore and Bai Shaoliu confronted each other from a distance. And on the side of the seawall. The honor guard brought by Xiaobai and Yog's entourage were watching the battle from a long distance. Seeing this scene, Qingchen snorted a little impatiently, while Gu Ying coughed.

The mask and helmet are one, and they can be pulled down from the helmet or put away, Xiaobai put away the silver mask, revealing a handsome face. He bowed and took Helen's handkerchief, put it in front of his nose and made a sniffing motion, then opened his breastplate and put the handkerchief inside. Hide close to your heart. This set of classical traditional rituals was taught by Gu Ying, which means that he expresses his admiration for Helen, and Helen accepts it and is willing to become his lover.

Bai Shaoliu put away the handkerchief and just straightened his waist, Helen suddenly stood on tiptoe and reached out to hook his neck, raised her beautiful face and leaned up to give him a deep kiss. This sensational scene made the audience's emotions boil even more, especially the women who were holding their chests excitedly, Qingchen in the distance turned his head with a pale face, and Gu Ying shook his head slightly, his eyes became a little moist.

This is not a courtesy kiss. It was a deep and warm wet kiss, Bai Shaoliu could feel Helen's intoxicated devotion, and he could also feel that she seemed to have no experience in kissing, and her movements were a little immature and clumsy. In the dueling arena, in front of thousands of people, it was impossible for Bai Shaoliu, who was a "great love saint", not to kiss back, wearing cold armor and gently hugging Helen, bowing his head and soothing and guiding with his wrapped lips and tongue. Helen's eyes were closed, and her whole body was trembling, as if she was about to melt into Xiaobai's arms, but tears seeped out of the corners of her eyes.

"Win or lose, you must live!" was the only thing Helen said as she left Xiaobai's arms.

Next, Philip grabbed Bai Shaoliu's hand and said in a loud voice: "Young warrior, I have no more words to describe your chivalry, please bow down and accept my blessings." ”

Bai Shaoliu lowered his body and half-knelt in front of the wheelchair, and then Philip whispered: "Pay attention to Fortimore's arrows." The green arrow has the magic of bending time and space, its power can divide a piece of space and tear the opponent apart, the orange arrow power continues to surge after the arrow is fired, beware that it will sweep people away like a tide, and the purple arrow is the most powerful, it will cause a burst of energy in a space, such a small range can not be dodged, only with all your defensive strength. ......”

Bai Shaoliu just wanted to look up and say thank you, but Philip said again: "Don't look up, listen to me carefully." The black iron armor on your body can scatter the impact of energy and disperse the sharp damage, but your body still has to withstand the force of the attack, and if the energy impact is too large, the armor will be reduced to pieces. ...... The Light Armor on Fortimore's body is the best armor in the world, capable of absorbing most of the attack power of magic, and its weakness is the heel of his boots, the side of the ankle, where the spar could have been inlaid but not inlayed. Then he exclaimed, "God bless you, brave knight!"

Perhaps everyone underestimated Philip, a businessman, a magician with inconspicuous combat effectiveness, who had such knowledge. The status of a person like Philip is not high in the Holy See, and Fortimore is caught as soon as he wants, and he does not take a lowly artisan leader in his eyes. But Philip is the best magician in the Holy See, a master of magic, and he is familiar with the characteristics and weaknesses of various magical weapons and instruments.

Fortunately, it was Bai Shaoliu who fought in person, if Dan Zicheng was here, it would be impossible for the Goling father and daughter to come to the field, and there would be no chance to hear Philip's words. Helen pushed her father's wheelchair away, and Montgoley II climbed the tower again, throwing down a white silk scarf, which fell to the ground in the sea breeze, and the duel began.

Fotimore also pulled off his mask, and his whole body was protected by armor without a single gap, but there was a trace of inexplicable irritability in his heart. There always seemed to be a trumpet in his ears, a trumpet that summoned the demons of his heart, and he had been listening to them for three days and three nights under the castle of Tej. In addition to this, he felt the black clouds rolling in front of him, and a silver light shot through his throat. He knew very well that this was an illusion that Bai Shaoliu forcibly superimposed on his consciousness, his spiritual power was strong and unleashed, but he also felt very impatient, Bai Shaoliu was playing ghosts, but he couldn't say.

Although the duel is more than archery and cannot use other means, everyone still has their own advantages, for example, Fotimore has the best light armor of the Holy See, the most powerful magic bow and arrow, and Xiaobai, his Red Refining Divine Bow itself can cheat, and now he has quietly used the Empathy Opening Technique to interfere with Fotimore's mind.

As soon as the silk scarf landed, Fotimore didn't wait for half a second, immediately took off the green arrow, and shot at Xiaobai mercilessly.
