Conflicts arise between nobles, and the usual solution is a duel, regardless of life or death, and the principal agrees. It seems that there is no problem, but in fact it has been biased in favor of Xuerle, because no matter how you look at it, the Downton trio can't beat their guards. After all
Those are all experts at the seventh level of Judgment.
If Downton loses, even if Andrea pursues the case afterwards, the principal can evade by saying that he cannot interfere in the duel. But when they took out the best equipment, his eyelids began to jump. He has good strength and such wealth.
Then he is obviously not just Andrea's apprentice. Think about his status as the Duke of the West...
"Oops, she won't bet heavily on him, right?" The principal's forehead was dripping with sweat. One of the assessments for the heir was the ability to build goodwill families in other countries.
When a great empire has signed a treaty prohibiting the proliferation of war, this is also a changed form of soft aggression.
Zira!
A harsh friction brought everyone's attention back, and they saw the thin Konoe's scimitar quickly grazing Hu Tao's shoulder, and a ball of dazzling sparks exploded.
Walnut counterattacked, and the battle ax slashed.
The thin Konoe twisted his body like a grass snake to avoid the ax blade. At the same time, with a flick of his wrist, the scimitar drew an arc in his hand and cut through Hu Tao's neck.
Downton was startled. Fortunately, the Hellfire defense was strong enough, otherwise the little Loli's throat would have been cut.
Hu Tao obviously felt the power and concentrated on dealing with it, but no matter how strong she was, it would be in vain if she couldn't hit the opponent.
The thin Konoe was like a cunning piranha, circling around the walnut with his flexible steps, retreating every time he touched it.
Young people are the most impatient. If they attack a few more times, the opponent will become anxious and confused, interrupting their own pace and falling into the enemy's attack rhythm.
Compared to the powerful and reckless man just now, the Thin Konoe relies more on his combat wisdom to show off his ferocity. He is very clear about his own advantages and uses them to the limit.
Downton covered his eyes, not wanting to look anymore.
Although Hu Tao has been taught many times, she just doesn't change. Even with an absolute advantage, she can still perform martial arts. But once she encounters a barrier, everything goes wrong and she starts to use brute force as usual. Fortunately, she has enough defense.
Excellent, otherwise someone would have cut off his neck.
"She is still a child, and it is normal for her to be eager to perform and want to prove herself." Homer defended. Then he added in a more serious tone, "But she has to make up for the lessons next, and it is simply embarrassing to be like this."
Downton and Homer both knew how to break the situation, but they didn't say that they wanted to see what Hu Tao would do, and if they didn't let her learn a lesson, the little Loli would definitely not remember it.
"Is something going to happen to her?"
Juliet grabbed Downton's sleeves. Her face was full of worry, and she begged him several times for mercy.
"No need for Downton's help!"
Hutao's ears were very sharp. He pouted his mouth and swung the battle ax faster, the blade flashing like lightning.
"So difficult!"
The thin guard was under great pressure. Every time he narrowly avoided the tomahawk, he could feel the strong wind and murderous intent coming from it. If he was hit by it, he would be dead.
Zhi! Zhi! Zhi!
The Thin Guard only cuts but does not chop, only wipes but does not chop. They are all bone-scratching and flesh-removing attacks.
This kind of fighting method made the senior people in the watching party nod repeatedly. Heavy attacks do a lot of damage. However, the process of exerting force is also long, and it is easy to be hit. Unlike this, if Hutao is not wearing Hellfire, the flesh on his body will be long gone.
It had been chipped off a lot and had scars all over it.
Being suppressed in front of everyone made Hu Tao's little face turn red with anger, and she felt humiliated. Her hair began to stand on end, showing signs of entering a violent state.
"Hutao, calm down, you can defeat him, come on!" Downton shouted, encouraging the little Loli, "When you win, I will make you an exclusive battle flag."
"Really?" Hutao looked delighted.
Downton nodded, but he took a deep breath in his heart. If Hutao became violent, the ship would definitely be doomed, and no one present would survive. Fortunately, she was distracted.
"Hmph, those guys who look like rats are so annoying." Hutao frowned, suddenly opened the oval shield, and started to attack fiercely.
Although it would consume a lot of Nutao's magic energy, the thin Konoe was unable to break through her shield and was dumbfounded.
"Isn't it? You can't even break the defense?"
"This little guy shouldn't be human, right?"
"It may be due to bloodline, but at this point you can tie with a seventh-level Judgment, and your future prospects are limitless!"
After hearing these discussions, some nobles realized that Hu Tao was not even ten years old, and even if he could not defeat the thin Konoe, he was still a genius among geniuses.
On the deck, control skills such as Giant Trample were unavailable, which was also one of the reasons why Hutao fell into passivity. However, with the encouragement of rewards, her fighting enthusiasm was greatly aroused, and her brain became more and more active.
Walnut leaps forward, stretching the distance.
The thin guard felt that since the attack would be fruitless, it was better to keep a distance to avoid being cut by the opponent, so he did not pursue it.
Hutao was overjoyed, and after turning around, her mouth opened wide, a halo appeared, and then spread outward, the horn of heaven was activated.
Harsh sound waves rang out, and the nobles affected by the halo immediately covered their ears and fell down with wrinkled faces.
The thin guard resisted well, and his body shook twice. He sensed something was wrong and was about to attack when the giant roar swept across the cruise ship.
Walnut's vocal cords were very strong, and she kept roaring without losing her voice. While the thin Konoe was dizzy, she flashed from heaven and appeared beside him, slashing with her battle ax.
The skinny Konoe tried his best to dodge, but with Kurumi stomping his feet, the deck cracked. Seeing that he was about to fall, he jumped up.
The walnut shot out like a cannonball, chasing the thin guard again.
The Thin Guard was in the air and could not use any force to avoid it. He was about to release the demon servant, but his movements were still slow and the Deathbringer passed by.
Whoosh!
The ax blade struck through the thin Konoe's shoulder, slicing his chest, splitting him in two, and his internal organs and blood dripped down.
ah!
The noble ladies screamed, in fact, to show that they were timid and reserved, and did not want to see blood. In fact, they were not afraid, because there were very few nobles who had never been to the arena these days. So seeing a dead man was nothing.
.
"good!"
Seeing Walnut's reversal, some lolicons cheered, and then they thought that the one who died was Xuerle's guard, their faces turned pale with fear, and they quickly shrank their heads.
"Sailor, clear the deck!"
The boss roared. He was also venting his anger. Hutao won two games in a row, which was a real slap in Xuerle's face. There was no chance of a peaceful settlement.
Sure enough, before Xuerle could speak, several more guards stood up. They knew the master's temper. If he didn't capture this little loli, none of the guards present would be able to come down. Of course, if he killed her,
, the benefits are also huge.
"Who comes next?" Hu Tao was eager to try, but was stopped by Downton.
"I'll do it!" Downton frowned. The guard who dared to stand up now was at least not afraid of Hu Tao, and he also figured out her simple fighting routine, which could easily lead to danger.
"I can do that." Hutao didn't want to be treated like a child. She wanted to help her big brother.
"I allow you to come together." Xuerle was eager to slaughter them all in a legitimate manner.
After Downton drove Walnut back, a guard stood up. He did not release the demon servant because it was not enough to see in front of the bone dragon.
Following the referee's order, the guards pounced on Downton, and at the same time, spinning fireballs appeared around them, shooting at Downton.
The battle unfolded. After devouring the fireball and reflecting it, golden dragon spears appeared, five in total, forcing the guards to dodge according to Downton's predetermined position.
The fireballs collided with a brilliant explosion. Konoe saw dragon spears and hammers of wrath all around him. He could only dodge, but the next moment he saw Downton appearing where he was dodging.
Downton's right leg swept out like a steel whip.
boom!
Konoe crossed his arms to block the thunderous blow, but the impact of the heavy kick caused him to fall out and into the sea water.
There was a lot of noise, and some people began to mutter that Downton was cunning. The opponent was at the seventh level of Judgment. This blow could not actually hurt the opponent, but he knocked the opponent out and could no longer fight. This was equivalent to defeat.
"Idiot!" Xuerle cursed, "Kill him, and I will reward you with a hundred thousand gold coins."
"Comrades, I'm sorry, this bounty belongs to me!"
A middle-aged man stood up and stared at Downton eagerly.
Before Downton could judge what the opponent was good at based on his hands and feet, the referee had announced the start of the duel, and in an instant, white light flashed.
The nobles went on their mission and screamed in horror. When their vision returned two minutes later, they discovered that the guard was lying on the ground, with his sternum completely broken, vomiting blood, and twitching constantly.
"what happened?"
The victory was decided in such a short time, which surprised the nobles. There would be no idiots under Xu Erle, which means that Downton is too powerful.
Xu Erle's face was ashen, and the guards hesitated for the first time. They no longer asked for a fight, but stared at Downton, sizing him up carefully, because the dead one was the best at sneak attacks, and he couldn't even kill Downton.
Others are not so sure either.
Only some people saw the battle clearly. The moment the dazzling spell broke out, a liquid mass appeared above Downton's head, blocking the magic attack. Then, when the guards made a sneak attack at close range, they reflected it, so the unlucky guy tasted it.
The power of your own talent.
Losing his eyesight was no different from seeking death in front of an evenly matched opponent, so Downton first used the Dragon Spear to sneak attack and easily captured him.
"Admit defeat, no matter how many people you have, you will lose."
Hutao crossed his arms, his little face full of pride, his big brother is so awesome.
Just as Xuerle was about to call for help, a voice interrupted.
"Forget it, the duel is over."
A mature young man with a handsome face walked in separately from the crowd. His eyes were very deep, as if he was hiding endless secrets that no one could understand.
"But……"
Xuerle did not get angry and seemed convinced by the young man.
"There is no guarantee. If we continue to fight, we will just kill people in vain." The young man shook his head with a completely pitiful attitude.
"Lend me some of your Guards regiments." Xuerle's eyes lit up and he made a request. The guards in the form were much more powerful than him, and one of them could beat ten of them.
"No, they are our brothers and companions, not gladiators who can be used for fun." The young man refused. The righteousness of his words made the guards around him express admiration and adoration, and some even showed their faces.
Enthusiastic expression.
"It doesn't seem like an act!" Downton couldn't see the flaw.
"It's Woodford of the Steinway family. I've long heard that although he is not a clergyman, he is more pious and kind than a paladin. He has the world at heart and is selfless. He spends a lot of time every year in slums to provide relief.
Many relief agencies have been established for the poor, and it seems that the rumors are true!"
“Is the Steinway family powerful?”
"Is your brain rusty? His full name is Wutford Steinway Tudor. Do you think he is powerful?"
"Hey, Tudor? Isn't that the royal surname of the Brittanian Empire? Doesn't that mean he has royal blood in him?"
"Yes, but in order for him to inherit the throne, he has to wait until all the royal princes are dead."
The Steinway family was one of the wealthy aristocrats of the Brittanian Empire, with a high position. One of their daughters married into the Hohenzollern family. After all, Wutford was Schurrle's cousin.
elder brother.
Of course, the reason why Schürrle is so obedient is not because of his status as a cousin, but because of the strength of Wutford. In Britannia, he is the leader of the younger generation.
"Hello!" Woodford took the initiative to shake hands with Downton, with a smile on his face that made people feel like a spring breeze, making it easy for him to develop a good impression. "This time it's Xuerle's fault. I apologize to you on his behalf."
"To put it bluntly, I am also impulsive."
Downton took the opportunity to step down, and the other party put on a conciliatory gesture. If he didn't know what was good and what was good, he would definitely be accused of being ungrateful by the nobles. Once his reputation was ruined, it would be bad for him to walk in the upper class in the future. Besides, he had killed many people.
I have established my authority personally and have not suffered any loss.
"A very cute and awesome little girl."
Wutford wanted to touch Hutao's head, but Little Loli dodged it, but he didn't care. Instead, he showed a gentle smile, took out a jade pendant and handed it to her.
"Star God Jade?"
The knowledgeable noble shouted out, this is a perfect piece of jewelry, it can refresh the mind and is very helpful for meditation.
When Woodford met his opponent for the first time, he was so generous, which made the nobles feel ashamed. His mind was too broad.
"It was the noble who offended me just now. My cousin was just trying to protect his friend's face. Please don't take it to heart."
Wutford bent down and apologized to Juliet. The shocked girl didn't know what to do and hid behind Downton.
He was a genius from a wealthy family, and he might even sit on the throne of a clan leader or the throne, but he actually saluted a commoner. At this moment, his behavior conquered everyone on the ship.
The noise subsided, and the nobles restrained their attitudes and showed their best manners, as if they were attending a palace banquet where etiquette must not be lost.
"Downton, we meet again."
Dupont came out from behind Woodford and greeted Downton with a smile. (To be continued...)
