w The last team battle in the Temple Knights Selection Competition has finally begun. The competition in the team battle is far more intense than the previous two rounds, because as the commander, the contestants themselves cannot take action and can only dispatch their soldiers to fight in formation.
In this way, the difference in strength between the two sides will disappear and they will both return to the same starting line.
The weapons used in battle are all specially made. After being hit in a vital point, they will be automatically teleported out of the field, and all the opponent's soldiers will be "annihilated", or the opponent will admit defeat and win.
Paul skipped the first round as the riding champion and directly entered the 24-man finals in the second round. He became one of the semi-finals with an undefeated record in the round-robin competition.
The semi-finals were eliminated by lottery, and Paul once again drew his old rival Stanwell. He tried his best, but ultimately lost by a narrow margin. Stanwell and another Sovlin entered the finals.
Although the results of the semi-finals were quite excellent and the expected goals of the Templar Knights had been achieved, Paul still felt very frustrated. Because the Pope and the two Patriarchs would be present to watch the finals. Her Majesty the Holy Lady also said that if he won
The champion might be able to attract the attention of the supreme angel and gain unimaginable benefits... However, all this is gone now.
Paul looked at the sparse figures in the square and sighed. The championship and runner-up finals with the presence of the Pope and the Patriarch were about to begin. He was supposed to show his strength to everyone on that stage, but now
I can only be a bystander like so many losers.
He was in a bad mood and didn't even want to go to the arena.
"Paul." A familiar voice sounded from behind, with a seductive sweetness.
Even without looking back, Paul could tell who it was. He frowned and asked, "Eliza, what are you doing here? Aren't you staying with Richard all day?"
"What, are you jealous?" Eliza chuckled, "Come with me. This is not the place to talk."
Paul's brows furrowed even more: "Where's Richard?"
"I gave him a bouquet of rare ice-blue roses and asked him to give it to the half-elf. He spent a lot of effort during this period. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the half-elf, he is just a toad."
Hearing the news about Chen Rui's setback, Paul felt very happy: "What are you looking for with me?"
Eliza looked around and saw that there was no one around, and stopped: "There are two things. They are both very important to you. The first one can be told to you for free."
"You have to pay for the second thing?" Paul looked suspicious: "You want to talk about the first thing first?"
"You don't know yet, but your follower Richard has already become the Holy Light Guardian Knight of the Holy Familiar Temple, just when he was left alone by the Saint for the first time."
Paul was shocked, and the expressions of surprise, gloominess, and anger began to intertwine quickly in his eyes - the Knight of Holy Light is the highest among the three levels of guardian knights. He has special power and status and is directly authorized and appointed by the patriarch. Ordinary guardians
It may be difficult for a knight to reach this level in his life. Paul himself abandoned the Temple of Thunder of his teacher Pasali to join the Temple of the Holy Familiar. Even if he wins the championship of the Temple Knight, he will only be a second-class Silver Knight at best. Now there is no hope of winning the championship.
It is estimated that he can only become the lowest White Knight. In the eyes of the outside world, this is already a very high honor. But this means that he, a majestic saint-level powerhouse, will bow to his former follower from now on.
How can the arrogant Paul accept this?
"Richard" is just a humble beast master. What method did he use to attract the Holy Lady's attention? Thinking of what "Richard" concealed from him, Paul felt strong resentment in his heart. Could it be that this
The guy has been using him to enter the Holy Mountain, and the purpose is to use this springboard to step on his head and get the upper hand?
Thinking of this, the resentment turned into a cold murderous intention. In fact, Paul's "misunderstanding" was half right, and Chen Rui really used him to enter the Holy Mountain.
Sensing the murderous intention in Paul's heart, Elisa smiled even more: "What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about how to salute Richard in the future?"
"Hmph!" Paul's face darkened after being poked in the painful spot, "Miss Eliza, is this your second thing?"
This kind of title already showed Paul's extreme dissatisfaction. Eliza kept smiling unfazed: "If you don't want to bend down and live under his shadow for the rest of your life, then we can have a good talk about the second
Something happened."
"Oh? You want to deal with him? Aren't you very close to him recently?" Paul thought he heard wrongly, but suddenly thought that Elisa and Joanna were once close friends, but turned their backs.
Go and send Joanna to a place of death like Storm Island.
Seeing Eliza's smiling face, Paul couldn't help but feel a chill, and gradually calmed down: "He is now under the high authority of Her Majesty the Holy Maiden. If there is any accident, Her Majesty the Holy Maiden will investigate..."
"The teacher values Richard's special value. If the value is no longer or has been transferred, there is no reason for him to continue to value him." Eliza's smile became more serious, "Once my plan succeeds, Miranda and
Richard will not be a threat, and the teacher will not blame me. The only thing I need now is a helper."
"What can I get?" The other party was Eliza. Paul didn't waste any words and asked directly about the benefits.
"Silver Guardian Knight, full support for the Luoman family. I will also help you become a Holy Light Guardian Knight in the future."
"That's all?"
"Isn't this enough? If you can get rid of the threat of Richard without taking responsibility, it should be me who helps you. Of course, I also need to take the opportunity to get rid of Miranda. This is a win-win cooperation." Eliza said calmly.
Looking at Paul, "Besides, what I promised is within my ability. If I promise greater benefits, do you think I am sincere?"
Paul thought for a moment and finally nodded: "When will we do it?"
A strange light flashed in Eliza's eyes: "Now!"
Neither of them knew that behind them, a hidden figure was leaving silently.
Guangming Holy Mountain, the garden building of the Holy Family Palace.
This is actually a very large garden, planted with various flowers and plants, filled with the sober fragrance everywhere, and there are many trees in it.
"What are you doing here again?" Half-elf Miranda stood at the door of the garden, looking at Chen Rui with a cold face. Chen Rui's hand was behind his back, holding a large bouquet of blue roses.
"This...is for you." Chen Rui handed forward the blue rose hidden behind his back.
"Ice blue rose?" Miranda was slightly surprised. "Where are you from?"
Chen Rui followed the lines taught by Eliza and said: "I spent a lot of effort to buy it. This kind of ice blue rose is said to be very rare and can be planted directly to survive. Don't you like flowers..."
"Yes, but the flowers you sent, no matter what they are, are annoying." Miranda interrupted Chen Rui coldly.
"Sorry to bother you, Miss Miranda." Chen Rui showed a frustrated expression. "In any case, the flowers are not wrong, it is me. I know you like them. Please accept these ice blue roses before leaving.
Because I really don’t know how to take care of them. You can’t bear to let them wither like this.”
Miranda's coldness subsided slightly and she finally nodded. Ice blue roses are extremely rare flowers. Moreover, the floral fragrance and pollen are quite beneficial to her practice.
The half-elf took the flowers handed over by Chen Rui, took a sip of the fragrance, and suddenly frowned. After looking carefully, he picked out a few blue grasses from the roses, and his expression changed drastically: "My favorite herb!"
The scented vanilla is even rarer than the ice blue rose, but its property is to fascinate people, which can make those who smell the scent quickly lose their power. It also has an additional attribute, that is, it has a certain aphrodisiac effect.
"Despicable!" Miranda reacted immediately. As she shouted angrily, Mivanilla was reduced to ashes. At the same time, Chen Rui was thrown away by a huge force. Before he even hit the ground, he was caught by a figure.
That figure was Eliza.
"Miranda! What are you going to do?"
"I want to kill this shameless guy!" Miranda was extremely angry. She never thought that "Richard" would be so bold and despicable, and dared to use lavender to do evil to her. She accidentally inhaled it just now.
Fascinated by the scent of vanilla, the strength has begun to show signs of fading.
"Richard is my good friend. It's just that you don't accept his pursuit, but you dare to kill him!" Elisa put down her "good friend" who was seriously injured and pale, stretched out her hand, and was enveloped in a ball of white light.
Stay in Chen Rui and rush towards Miranda.
Before Miranda could speak, Elisa was already approaching like lightning without any explanation, so she had no choice but to fight. The two graceful figures began to separate and join in a fight at a rapid pace. It was almost impossible to see the movement. The fallen flowers and leaves affected by the force were flying all over the sky, "Bang."
!" Miranda's figure shot out and staggered back.
Due to the medicinal properties of the herb, the half-elf didn't want to fight. He chanted a spell quickly, and a white light glowed in his hand, trying to use the "Light of Extinction" to repel Eliza. At this moment, a warning sign suddenly appeared in his heart, and suddenly
Interrupting the spell, he jumped up and avoided a fatal sword attack from behind. However, he was still hit by the remaining force, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and a shocking red mark was spreading on his back.
Miranda's expression of pain was more due to the mental backlash caused by forcibly interrupting the spell. Before she could get a firm footing, she heard a whistling sound in front of her. Unable to avoid it, she blocked it with her arms.
"Crack!" Amidst the sound of fractures, the whole person was thrown upside down by a huge force, breaking countless flowers and trees along the way, and finally fell on the largest ancient tree. The ancient tree trembled for a while, and countless branches and leaves fell.
The half-elf's body slowly slid down and sat on the ground. He was severely injured and could no longer stand up.
Looking at Elisa and Paul who attacked her, Miranda finally understood. Ice blue rose, vanilla, sneak attack... This was clearly a premeditated attack! The mastermind of the conspiracy was none other than Eliza!
As for "Richard", he was just being used!
"So what if the body of light is immune to this?" Eliza raised a giant hammer in her hand, her sneer showing undisguised pride: "How does this compare to the awl you used last time?
I didn't expect that I would be able to return it to you so soon! Don't ask for help in vain. The teacher has already gone down the mountain to the Holy Light City to watch the finals of the Temple Knights, and the surrounding guardian knights and attendants have already been dismissed by me."
Miranda desperately tried to muster the strength to escape or make a near-death counterattack, but the effectiveness of the herb had been fully exerted, and her seriously injured body could not muster any strength, but instead felt a strange heat.
"It will take some time for the effects of the herb to wear off. Paul, you go and look at her first. Don't kill her yet. I'll be useful later."
Paul nodded and walked over, the two-handed giant sword "Hua Guang" in his hand glowing with an icy cold light.
Eliza jumped up and came to the front of "Richard". After removing the white light, she saw "Richard" lying there with a lifeless breath. Eliza picked up Chen Rui and said: "Richard! What are you doing?
How are you doing?"
Chen Rui barely opened his eyelids: "What... happened just now?"
"That bitch Miranda wanted to kill you, and now she has escaped." The white light not only stopped "Richard", but also had the effect of isolating him.
"Miss Miranda..." Chen Rui's eyes became darker and his voice became weaker and weaker, "Why did she do this?"
"She doesn't deserve this!" Elisa touched Chen Rui's face gently, with a faint glow in her hands, "You and I, we are best friends, no matter what happens, I will be by your side.
.”
The power of that brilliance made Chen Rui feel very comfortable, and his eyes gradually became peaceful: "Thank you, Elisa, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it anymore."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I will do my best to cure you." Elisa's voice became more and more gentle: "I am your most trustworthy friend and the closest person."
"The most trusted friend..." Chen Rui murmured, "The closest person, Eliza..."
"Are you really going to die?"
"Am I really going to die..."
"Can't support it anymore? You can't die like this!"
‘I can’t support it any longer…can’t die like this…”
Elisa's eyes glowed with a strange light, and she guided her step by step: "You must first pass the words of the heart to the people closest to you..."
"Send the words of your heart to those closest to you..."
"Who is the person closest to you?"
"Eliza..."
A successful smile appeared on Elisa's lips. She possesses a special psychic power that can control the other party's thoughts to a certain extent. However, this psychic power is not omnipotent. Unless it is willing, the stronger the other party's will, the more resistant it will be.
The stronger her sex will be. Once she fails, she will suffer terrible backlash, so she cannot use it easily.
In Garden City, after Elisa heard the story of inheriting the word of the soul and it was confirmed, she began to plan all this, wanting to make Chen Rui a servant and seize his "word of the soul" power. Unexpectedly
Unfortunately, Chen Rui finally chose Paul. But Elisa still didn't give up and started a series of plans. After Chen Rui showed the power to communicate with phoenix eggs, she became more determined and finally laid out this plan.
Now we are nearing the end of the work.
This time, not only can I obtain the Word of the Heart, but I can also eliminate my mortal enemy Miranda, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. Even if Eudora sees through it, I can still be reused with the help of the Word of the Heart.
"Send the words of your heart to Eliza." Eliza's voice became softer and full of temptation.
"Pass it to Eliza..." Chen Rui's eyes gradually glowed red. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation.
