In Chen Rui's mind, some memory fragments began to reappear. Most of these fragments were incomplete and hazy, but they all had a common feature, eyes.
Blue eyes, as beautiful as the ocean, with a hint of sadness in their deep tenderness
In a trance, all the fragments began to overlap, converging into a blurry scene. A warm hand gently brushed against the young man's face, and he slowly turned and left. The retreating figure became increasingly blurred in the young man's tears.
This is the most profound image, or obsession, left in Arthur's subconscious. Even Chen Rui's subjective consciousness, which has merged with the memory fragments, cannot erase this strong obsession.
Chen Rui took a deep breath and finally suppressed the strong emotional fluctuations. He frowned and asked Diego beside him: "Who is the woman sitting in the second row to His Majesty's left?"
"Second row on the left?" Diego squinted for a long time and couldn't see clearly. He refused to show weakness and said deliberately: "It turns out to be her. Don't be delusional. A woman who can sit in that position can't see anything clearly."
It’s not something a small role like you can covet.”
Chen Rui thought to himself, I covet your sister. If I really want to reveal the identity of that highness, I'm afraid your sister will covet me. Before he could ask any more questions, Paul in the field spoke.
Paul first bowed to Emperor Rex in the VIP seat, and then exhaled and said loudly: "Dear Your Majesty Rex, Your Highnesses, Your Excellencies, Distinguished Guests."
Paul's powerful voice overwhelmed the entire audience, and the noisy arena gradually became quiet.
"I'm very sorry to keep you waiting for so long. You must be wondering why my counterpart Samuel Camplot hasn't appeared yet?"
Paul's words caused a burst of whispers, and he was obviously guessing the reason. According to the time, the challenger Samuel should have appeared, but until now there is no trace!
Carlo Camplot, the patriarch of the Camplot family and Samuel’s father, deputy director of the Imperial Finance Department, was already sweating coldly. Samuel was the Silver Knight of the Empire, and the duel was presided over by Emperor Rex himself.
Cowardice and defeat are two completely different concepts. If Samuel hadn't appeared yet, it would no longer be a matter of winning or losing the duel. The Camplot family might not be able to withstand the wrath of Emperor Rex.
"Here I want to announce to you a piece of news that I just got today. The source of this news was originally very reliable, but because the content of the news was so shocking, I have never been sure. However, Samuel has not appeared until now.
Pay attention to prove the authenticity of this news."
Paul glanced at Carlo, who was constantly wiping his sweat, and set his sights on the patriarch of the Philip family, Joanna's father, Foret, and showed a sneer: "The news is that Samuel knows that he is not my right and is just an excuse.
Under the guise of a duel, I eloped with my fiancée Joanna early in the morning!"
This is indeed explosive news. There was an uproar in the arena stands, and the discussion became more and more popular. Many people knew about the relationship between Samuel and Joanna, and also knew that Joanna's father ignored Samuel after losing the last duel.
The daughter objected and set a wedding date with the Loman family. Unexpectedly, Samuel was so bold this time, ignoring the duel hosted by Emperor Rex himself, and fled with Joanna!
Foret, the patriarch of the Philip family, was shocked and looked at Paul with shock and anger in his eyes. Joanna went to Garden City to relax and has not returned yet. To say the least, it is not impossible even if she really eloped with Samuel, but
Foret never imagined that Paul, who had always been respectful to him, did not communicate with him beforehand, but directly revealed the matter in front of His Majesty Rex and everyone, which was tantamount to
It was a loud slap in the face of the Philip family. Not only that, this scandal directly damaged the face of the arbiter Rex the Great and will bring extremely serious consequences to both the Philip family and the Campelot family.
Before being persuaded by Elisa, Paul would definitely not have bitten the Philip family. Now that he has chosen his future path, he will definitely prove his determination to the church and show this to the saint.
If we can attack and suppress the two major families at the same time, it will definitely be beneficial to the Loman family's rise to power. As long as a certain climate is formed and the church's secret support is formed, even Emperor Rex will have to be afraid.
point
There were also many people in the VIP seats talking in low voices. Emperor Rex still looked emotionless and indifferent. He didn’t know what he was thinking.
At this moment, the surrounding discussions suddenly died down. Paul seemed to feel something. He was slightly shocked, and an incredible light flashed across his eyes, and he slowly turned his head.
I saw two people appear on the scene, a man and a woman, it was Samuel and Joanna
Paul couldn't believe his eyes. Shouldn't Samuel and Joanna die on Storm Island? Is this a trick by Eliza? This is even more impossible. Eliza finally managed to win him over.
There is no motive to frame him!
"First of all, I want to apologize to Your Majesty. Due to some special reasons, I was late." Samuel bowed to the VIP table. "The reason why I was delayed was because I went to a dangerous place and risked my life to save him."
The place where the woman I love most is called the Isle of Storms."
As soon as these words came out, the audience roared again, Storm Island! That is a dangerous place that even the saint-level powerhouse dare not touch! Samuel actually did it for Joanna... By the way, why was Joanna on the Storm Island?
"Joke! You can save people from Storm Island?" Paul had quickly recovered from the shock, and his mind was racing: "It was obviously you who seduced my fiancée...the two of them colluded to make up such a ridiculous story.
lie!"
"Joanna is no longer your fiancée. Regardless of the outcome of this duel, the engagement between the Philip family and the Loman family will be terminated." The person who spoke was the patriarch of the Philip family, Foret. The power of the Philip family is still in Loman.
Above the Mann family, he forced his daughter to marry Paul because of the Camplot family's fall from grace and Paul's potential and church background. Now Paul slapped the Philip family hard in front of everyone.
Having almost brought the Phillip family to ruin, he would not be stupid enough to ask someone to slap him on the other cheek.
This decision was expected by many people, including Paul himself, but when he heard Foret announcing it in person in front of everyone, Paul's heart was still tightened and he felt strong resentment. The happiest people were Joanna and Samuel.
Got it
At this moment, the deep voice of Emperor Rex rang out from the VIP seat, and the surrounding area suddenly became silent.
"Now that both parties have arrived, the duel begins."
Samuel nodded to Joanna. Joanna was very smart and didn't say a word. She just gave him a moving smile and turned towards the stands.
Paul's face was filled with gloom, and his eyes were full of anger. Joanna had always been cold to him and had never smiled at him like that - it was indeed true that this couple could come back alive from Storm Island and appear in the arena in time.
Having given him a heavy blow, now that he has reached this point, the only solution is to defeat Samuel in a duel, declare as the winner that Samuel and Joanna had an affair and collaborated to frame him, and then rush
Go to the Holy Mountain to become a Temple Knight and use the power of the Holy Mountain to protect the Loman family
Although many previous plans were forced to abort as a result, it was the only way to remedy and turn things around.
Paul roared, his whole body full of murderous aura, and he clenched a long sword with both hands. This was a double sword named "Hua Guang". It was a gift from Paul's teacher, the Holy Knight Captain Pasari, also known as the Double Giant Sword.
The width and length of the sword's blade are far longer than those of ordinary single swords. Between the blade and the hilt, there is a sheath latch, which not only serves as a connection, but the magic gems inlaid with it can also act as an amplification.
, the sword is slightly tilted upward, with a sharp edge at the end, like the fangs of a wild beast.
Samuel slowly pulled out the long knife. Compared with "Huaguang", this excellent knife was just an ordinary item. The aura on the Silver Knight did not have any special flow. Compared with Paul's aggressive momentum, it seemed
Gujingbubo
Emperor Rex's gaze paused on Samuel for a moment, then lit up slightly, then returned to calmness. The young man beside him suddenly yawned, as if he had foreseen the outcome of victory or defeat, and was not interested in watching this action anymore.
It seemed a little rude in front of Emperor Rex, but Rex didn't seem to mind at all, and the rest of the people didn't seem to notice.
Paul's figure flashed and he quickly approached Samuel. The two swords carried a terrible wind and swept forward. As long as there was room to display, the power of the two swords was quite terrifying. The solid ground protected by the barrier was already on the blade.
Shocking cracks appeared under the pressure of the wind,
Samuel did not take a hard hit. Instead, he mainly used dodge and adopted a strategy of fighting. It seemed that he wanted to consume Paul's physical strength. Paul remained unmoved and his attacks became more ferocious.
In fact, Paul did not show his true strength in the last duel with Samuel. This time, Samuel's strength has obviously gone to a higher level and entered the Saint level (pseudo-saint). He is just on par with him.
, Paul is aware of Samuel's weakness of insufficient endurance, and endurance is exactly Paul's strength. If Samuel can barely defend and dodge under such a high-pressure attack, the energy consumed will be even greater, and he will definitely be worn down by then.
Suddenly, Samuel's long knife drew an incredible arc. The back of the knife pressed against the spines of the two giant swords like lightning. The blade picked up and moved along the sword body toward Paul's throat. Such speed and power
, far beyond imagination
Paul was startled. He jerked his head to the side in a hurry and felt a chill on his face. He had already been scratched by the blade, and there was a trace of blood. Samuel did not give the opponent another chance. The long knife was like a cunning poisonous snake.
Bypassing the sharp edges of the two giant swords, they frequently targeted Paul's vital points.
In the dim light of the sword, there were several holes in the sapphire armor on Paul's body, and blood dripped on the ground. Paul's blood
Chen Rui nodded secretly. Since receiving the guidance, Samuel's combat skills and power use have indeed improved a lot. In fact, the strength gap between the two sides is not very big. Paul's strength is only one step away from the middle of the Demon King, while Samuel's
I have just advanced to the middle stage of the Demon King, but now that the right time, place and people are all on Samuel, there is no suspense in this battle. Now I can plan the next move with peace of mind. Welcome to your support, which is my biggest
