The venue for the duel is set in the square behind the banquet hall.
According to the construction standards of Hai Siting's single duel arena, this place is inside a circle with a radius of twenty meters. A trench about two or three meters deep is dug around the circle, and there are piles of things in it.
When the duel comes, fuel will be poured into it and ignited after the duel begins. The flames will block the duelist's retreat. Of course, since one of the protagonists today is His Royal Highness, the fire will be lit.
The program was abandoned.
Outside the trench is a ring-shaped stepped building, which is a special auditorium. People watching the duel can sit on it and see every detail of the duel without any obstruction. Only the north and south passages will
The ring-shaped auditorium is divided into two symmetrical halves, and the passage is connected to the dueling arena by a chain bridge, which crosses the trench and serves as the entrance passage for both parties to the duel.
Dressed in black, Geer stood in a circle filled with death, waiting for his duel opponent to appear.
The auditorium behind him was occupied by his companions, church members and some neutral nobles, while opposite him were most of the guests and the vast majority of Anslin family members. Although they had internal conflicts,
But the attitude towards outsiders is still the same.
Fortunately, Saloras and the Seventeenth Princess were still on his side, otherwise I don't know what would have happened.
"I'm so sorry that I have to trouble you again this time."
Carmelita walked up to Geer with Ephiros in her hands, bent down and saluted, handing Ephiros to Geer like a ritual gesture.
"It's okay. This is a challenge to me. I won't run away from it. This is the pride of a warrior and has nothing to do with you." Geer took the rune sword and returned a salute to the Priestess, smiling calmly.
"Anyway, you gave me help again, I owe it to you, and... be careful."
The Priestess curled away, and Geer turned back to look up at his own auditorium and glanced around. His face was still calm and he looked confident, but he still had no answer to the doubts in his heart.
After making an agreement for a duel before the gods in the hall, Geer had a brief contact with Saloras. During that time, the message she conveyed to him was to kill the other party!
Kill her brother, His Highness the Prince of the Principality of Hastings?
Even Geer found this request too unexpected.
But just when Geer hoped to communicate with Saloras again in order to verify her true thoughts, due to the approach of others, the two lost the opportunity to continue communicating. Until they entered the duel field, the two did not have close contact again.
opportunity.
But when Geer looked back at his own audience, hoping to judge through Saloras' expression whether he had misunderstood what she had conveyed before, he discovered that Saloras, who had been staying beside the Seventeenth Princess, actually
There was no trace.
For this reason, Geer looked around the entire auditorium again and confirmed that Salolas did not appear in the stands.
The reason why Geer agreed to this duel was not only because Ursula had directly challenged him by name. As a warrior who was extremely confident in his own combat skills, he would never refuse such a challenge. Otherwise, if he backed down, he would use a series of methods before.
The indestructible confidence brought by victory would be cracked by this, which would hinder the progress of his martial arts in the future, and he never considered that he would lose.
On the other hand, Geer considered that tomorrow he and his team members would go to Emrock with the Seventeenth Princess and everyone in the Church of Ingrid, and calculated that it would take more than a month to go back and forth. He made an agreement with Saloras
The good time has passed, and there is no need to go back to Hasting, so there is nothing to worry about even if you offend a prince. When the time comes, Ursula can still go to San Lotaro to find him?
But now that Saloras asked Ger to kill Ursula directly, that was another matter.
If he kills the opponent in the duel, he will not be held legally responsible, but Geer will not be so naive as to think that the Anslin family will swallow this breath and let him, the guy who dares to kill the royal family, have nothing to do with it.
With the dignity of this family that rules a country, even if Saloras takes shelter, Geer doesn't think she will be able to protect herself, and may even harm her companions.
But why did Her Royal Highness the Princess make this request?
Is there anything else that I can't think of happening?
Geer used his sword as a staff and thought while waiting for his opponent to arrive.
Dang...dang...dang...
The deafening sound interrupted Geer's thoughts.
The gong placed outside the trench was struck by a strong man with his upper body naked, and the sound of Qingyue resounded throughout the duel field. The large pile of fuel that had been temporarily piled up was also ignited at the same time, and the strong light suddenly illuminated the place.
The place where you were was illuminated brightly, and his side face was reflected in a red copper color.
At this time, Geer noticed a graceful figure appearing next to the Seventeenth Princess. It was Salolas who had been missing before. However, at this time, she specially put on a thin veil to make her
His face is hidden in the mist.
But at this time, Geer had no time to pay attention to Saloras who was late.
Geer's opponent, His Royal Highness the Prince of Hastings, walked through the dark corridor to the sound of the gong, and came from the shadows into the light.
Ursula is similar in size to Gal, but looks much better than Gal. His red light armor shines brightly under the reflection of the firelight, surrounding a strong body composed of perfect muscle lines.
Her hair, which looked like golden threads, was tied randomly with silver strips of cloth and draped behind her back, like a heroic knight challenging the dragon in legend.
As soon as he appeared, he was greeted with cheers from some noble girls. Compared with the popular Prince, Geer looked like a standard villain, for example, he put on the template of an evil warrior who blocked the love between the prince and the girl.
I believe that many girls present have imagined that Geer looks like this.
When Ursula arrived at the venue and stood face to face with Ger, the sound of the gong immediately became more rapid.
The duel is about to begin.
Compared to Bigel's two-handed long sword, Ursula chose a wide one-handed sword and a rectangular shield. Under the firelight, both of their faces had no expression. From this point of view, Ursula chose
La is not inferior to Geer who has experienced hundreds of battles. The moment he steps onto the battlefield, all unnecessary emotions will be abandoned to avoid affecting his own performance.
As for Geer, he has completely forgotten about Saloras and is focusing all his attention on this battle. As for whether to choose to be ruthless or to hold back, this is an all-out battle.
is a ridiculous question.
Maybe it was because of the sudden night wind that Luckarin couldn't help but shiver. She turned her head and asked Saloras not far away.
"Your Highness, that Ursula is quite powerful, isn't she?"
"Brother Ursula is the strongest person in the Anslin family besides Brother Fromien. During the years of mercenary trials, he killed six knight-level masters in total, not counting those below the knight level.
It's just that it can be found, and the actual record should be more." The answer was from the Seventeenth Princess, Saloras still looked at the field quietly without any reaction.
"Don't worry, you should have confidence in Geer." Carmelita's cold voice came over immediately, which made Lucaline's more worried expression slightly relieved after hearing the words of the Seventeenth Princess.
The Seventeenth Princess also heard what the Priestess said, and looked at her strangely, but did not continue to say anything. It was as if the seriousness of an adult covered her immature face, and she cast her eyes on the two people present. One was Saloras.
The protector appointed by her was her brother. Looking at the two of them, the Seventeenth Princess showed no superfluous expression at this time, making it difficult for people to see what was hidden in her young body.
Lucaline cast her sight a little further away, past the two people confronting each other on the field, and came to the opposite stand. She saw the royal family members gathering together. The atmosphere seemed to be good. Apparently they were also very fond of Ursula.
confidence.
Uneasiness and regret began to seep into Lucalin's heart. She regretted not stopping Gal's behavior, although she knew very well that such a stop would not have any effect on a warrior like Gal.
At this moment, a hand as warm as jade grasped Luckarin's hand.
It's Carmelita.
The sound of the gong suddenly stopped at this moment.
For a moment, the place was extremely quiet, only the flames licking the wood continued to make violent crackling sounds.
The eldest prince, Fromien, stood up from his seat.
"The duel before the gods that has been decided will now begin. The result of the duel is sacred and inviolable, and neither side can have any objections."
As apart from Saloras, Fromien had the highest status among everyone present. In addition, Saloras' female identity was not suitable for this job, so the powerful great prince fulfilled this duty.
"I declare that the duel begins!"
Geer placed Ephiroth in front of the god and took a stance, while Ursula on the opposite side was also prepared.
"I will not hold back in this battle, please forgive me." Ursula raised the shield to the lower edge of the bridge of her nose, only exposing the upper part. She held the sword in her right hand and hid it behind her side, like a poisonous snake about to attack.
"That's what I want to say." Gersaran, the tip of Ephiros's sword drew a slow arc and aimed between Ursula's eyes.
A dangerous atmosphere began to permeate the venue.
In an instant, the breathing of the spectators became extremely thin, and they stared at the two people on the field without blinking.
Suddenly, a strange strong wind blew by, and the illuminated fire shook violently. The faces of the two people in the scene instantly began to switch between shadow and firelight reflections.
Murderous aura penetrated the darkness.
Hey!
There was a burst of dust on the ground covered with fine sand.
The two warriors approached instantly, their blades reflecting the light, cutting through the darkness, and headed towards their opponents.
The next moment, the sound of metal clashing was reflected everywhere, and sparks flew around the blade.
The two swords gleamed and intertwined.
From the beginning, the duel reached a climax. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
