Chapter 146: Duel

The duel between Lucius and the forest minotaur chieftain Retosa attracted everyone's attention, whether it was the unicorns who had begun to trust Lucius, or those who were invited by the unicorns and were also at the bottom of the forest, they were full of curiosity about Lucius and wanted to see the strength of this young man from outside the forest.

As a party concerned, Retosa was also a little apprehensive in his heart, he didn't expect Lucius to be so strong, and he didn't expect that Lucius would agree to his duel provocation.

As a vulnerable group in the forest, Retosa's idea is the same as that of most leaders of disadvantaged groups, no matter what, they must keep the continuation of the group, even if the lowest level of survival is regarded as a slave, but as long as they can maintain the stable continuation of the group, Retosa will never take the initiative to take up arms to resist.

Now, under the convening of the unicorn clan, Retosa and the others have gathered their clansmen, but they did not expect that the unicorns would cooperate with outsiders and intend to rebel and overthrow the rule of the city in the woods.

While admiring the courage of the unicorn clan, Retosa and the others were naturally thinking about whether they should cooperate with the unicorns, or whether they should cooperate with outsiders like Lucius?

"Freedom" is something that everyone wants, but the people of the forest know that freedom comes at a price.

In Retosa's view, the aliens of Lucius did not understand their desire for freedom, nor their despair of powerlessness to resist the rule of the city in the woods.

Therefore, after Lucius took over his duel and provoked to leave, Retosa sneered and said to Barna: "Bana, it seems that you, a little friend from outside the forest, are a very angry little fellow, since he accepted my request for a duel, then please prepare for it, the landlord." ”

Barna also didn't expect that Lucius would agree to Retosa's duel.

I was stunned for a moment, and saw Emilia walking in from the outside. Barna hurried over.

Pulling Emilia aside and whispering, "What the hell is going on? Lucius doesn't really want to duel with Retosa, do you?" didn't you tell him that Retosa is the chief of the Minotaur clan. ”

Emilia said helplessly when she heard this: "I said, before the leaders of the various clans came, I told Lucius about their strength. ”

"Did you tell SΓΉ Lutius that Retosa had obtained the cultivation method of the city in the woods?"

Seeing Emilia nodding seriously, Barna said with some incredulity, "Even so, is he still going to duel with Retosa?"

"Yes father, it seems that Lucius was indeed provoked by Retosa, and he seemed to want to make Retosa understand that nothing is invincible. I also want to use this duel to let us see the hope of defeating the city in the forest. ”

Surprised by Amilia's words, Barna whispered, "Did Lucius say these words?"

Seeing Barna's surprised look, Emilia said without hesitation, "Although it is my guess, I think this should be what Lucius wants to express, father." Do you want to back down now? This is our race's best chance to overturn the fate of enslavement. ”

Barna stared at his daughter in surprise, and was silent for a long time before he couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, it's not that the father doesn't want the tribe to get rid of oppression. Rather, I'm worried that if it doesn't work out......"

Without letting Barna finish speaking, Emilia grabbed the words and said, "Father, since you are also worried. Then let the facts take care of your worries. ”

"You just believe in him like that, but he's just a person who hasn't stepped into cultivation, and you should know very well how powerful the cultivation method of the city in the forest is. ”

When Emilia heard this, she was very disappreciative and said, "The cultivation method of the city in the forest is indeed very powerful. But even then, weren't those self-healing pride guys in the city of the forest also arrested by Lucius?"

The daughter's words suddenly made Barna speechless, indeed as Emilia said, no matter how powerful the city in the forest is, those young talents in the city in the forest have still been captured by Lucius, and there are only a few people, and dozens of young people in the city in the forest have been arrested, including Li Si of the Li family of the Scarlet Castle.

Thinking of this, Barna suddenly felt that it seemed that Retosa was destined to lose to Lucius.

The news of the duel soon came, and the many ethnic groups at the bottom of the forest forgot for a moment that the bell of the city in the forest was calling, and everyone began to look forward to the duel.

Especially the unicorn who knew that Lucius had captured Li Si and the others, he was looking forward to the duel between Lecius and Retosa, and wanted to see what kind of strength Lecius, an outsider, had, and whether he could defeat the forest minotaur chief if he could capture those young talents in the city in the forest.

In order to save time, there was no much preparation and waiting for the duel, and in the evening, a roaring bonfire was lit in the empty square in the unicorn village, reflecting a duel field.

Surrounded by a group of majestic minotaurs, Retosa first arrived at the dueling arena that had been built on the spot of the campfire.

Although Retosa did not consider Lucius to be his opponent, he wore a special wooden armor, which was reflected by a strange halo on the armor, which was a set of magical armor blessed with magical powers.

Noko, who rushed to the dueling arena, saw the armor on Retosa's body, frowned slightly and whispered to the others: "See, that Minotaur chief actually has magic armor, I'm afraid Lucius may not be able to defeat the other party easily." ”

Hearing Noko's words, the others immediately looked towards the dueling arena.

At a glance, you can see the armor on Retosa's body, and the mysterious luster on the armor under the reflection of the firelight.

Christine, who was hidden under the cloak, couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Damn, this group of minotaurs in the forest is really insidious, and they actually hide magic armor. ”

Regarding Christine's indignation, ModΓ¨s quickly interjected: "Those protective gear should be some years old, and it looks like they should be made of the bark of ancient trees, I am afraid that it is something that has been passed down by the ancestors of these forest minotaurs, but the magic power has probably been lost a lot." ”

Qi Li'er then said: "It seems that these vulnerable groups in the forest should not be underestimated, even if the civilization has been destroyed, there will still be some inheritance. ”

Several other people nodded yes when they heard this, and Norco squinted his eyes at the magic armor on Retosa's body, and muttered to himself for a long time: "No, no, the magic runes on that magic armor are ancient. But it seems that the magic sealed on the armor does not seem to have collapsed and lost much. ”

"Huh?" Hearing Noko's words, several people all came to their senses.

Among these people who entered the forest, except for Lecius, a magic alchemist who didn't pay much attention, including Shadow, they all had a special sense of magic.

After Noko's reminder, several people showed incredible looks on their faces after a little sense, especially Christine exclaimed in a low voice: "This, how is this possible? That protective gear is obviously a long time ago." ”

It wasn't just Christine who was surprised, everyone else was incredible. Dumbfounded, he stared at the protective gear on Retosa's body.

However, Noko calmed down first, lowered his head and thought about it, and muttered: "It seems that I am afraid that those forest minotaurs have something in their hands to preserve magic armor. ”

"Speaking of which, wouldn't this duel be very difficult for Lucius?"

Several people looked at each other, they were optimistic about Lucius before, and they were all worried about Lucius's duel at this moment, after all, Retosa had the strength close to the Holy Rank. Coupled with the magic armor on his body, they couldn't think of any way for Lucius to hurt each other?

However, it was at the time when Noko, Christine, Modesse, Kirilla, and Shadow were worried. Suddenly, Beluti's voice sounded from behind them: "It's just a blessed magic armor, you don't have to make such a fuss, I believe Lucius should have a way to deal with it." ”

Hearing Beluti's voice behind them, everyone turned their heads to follow the voice. But he saw Beluti walking slowly alone with No. 3 and No. 4, but there was no sign of Lucius.

Seeing this, Qi Li'er immediately asked, "Why is it only you and the people of No. 3 and No. 4, and Lecius, and isn't he going to let No. 3 and No. 4 help him?"

Didn't wait for Beludi to answer. Number Three had already preemptively said: "He said that he didn't need our help, and said that if we helped, it wouldn't be a fair duel." ”

Three made no secret of his annoyance, apparently three and four were upset that Lucius had forbidden them to do so.

Hearing Three's answer, Christine immediately exclaimed, "What? He won't let you two help? It's such a time, he still wants a fair duel? God, does he think that his half-magic alchemy can compete with a minotaur warrior with almost Holy Rank strength?"

As soon as Christine's words fell, Lecius's smiling voice came: "What? It seems, Christine, you don't seem to be optimistic about me?"

Everyone followed the sound and looked, but saw that Lucius had a confident and calm smile on his face, and calmly took steady steps, step by step through the crowd gathered around the dueling arena, and walked to the side of the dueling arena Noko and the others.

Seeing Lucius arrive, they didn't wait for Noko to open their mouths to remind him to be careful of the magic armor on Retosa's body.

Retosa, who was standing in the dueling arena, was already impatiently shouting: "Hey, foreign boy, aren't you afraid, are you? If you don't fight and admit defeat now, you will be captured, let us send you and those young people from the city in the forest to the city in the forest, so as not to affect our various ethnic groups." ”

Hearing this, Lucius raised his head and looked at Retosa, and when he saw the magic armor on Retosa's body, the corners of Lecius's mouth rose slightly, and he exerted a slight force under his feet, and the whole person naturally rose into the air, and actually crossed the raging bonfire and landed in the dueling arena lightly.

Seeing Lucius's jump, everyone present was dumbfounded, no one would have thought that Lucius would be able to jump over the high bonfire, and be able to land in the dueling arena so lightly, without even a single shock.

The next moment, Lucius broke the short silence, pointed at Retosa and said, "It seems that you are impatient, so come, I will let you strike first, because if you don't make a move, there will be no chance to make a move, I only need one move, one move can knock you down." ”

Lucius's words startled Retheus at first, but then Retosa came to his senses, roared angrily and took heavy steps, approaching Lucius and roaring, "Damn boy, I will make you pay for despising me." ”

The loud "boom" made everyone deafened, and many onlookers covered their ears and stared at the duel arena in surprise.

In the dueling arena, the dust and smoke were billowing and it was impossible to see what was happening on the field, and no one knew who had become the winner, Lucius or Retosa. (To be continued......)
