When Du Wei returned to Loulan City, it was already evening. Longbottom and twenty-eight magic students stayed in the military camp outside the city. Du Wei went directly back to the Duke's Mansion.
In a courtyard behind the Duke's Palace, Duwei met Hussein, who was seriously injured.
The paladin's external injuries are no longer serious. The most seriously injured shoulder blade has gradually healed under the influence of the holy fighting spirit, but Hussein's face is very sallow. Although the injury can be treated with fighting spirit or medicine, the blood loss
It's too much, but it can't be remedied by any direct means.
Looking at Hussein's appearance, Du Wei looked solemn and said to Lao Yan: "Stay outside and don't allow anyone to come in."
After finishing speaking, Du Wei walked to Hussein's bedside, sat down, and said with a wry smile: "You really brought me bad news."
"It's indeed bad news." Hussein looked cold.
"Now, tell me what happened."
Hussein sighed softly. He did not answer directly, but took out the cloth bag from his side. After slowly untying it, he revealed the "Beauty under the Moon" inside.
Du Wei took a look and couldn't help being surprised: "Why is Rodriguez's sword here with you? Did you go to the frozen forest and meet that guy?"
Hussein nodded: "If it weren't for this guy...I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back alive!"
Later, Hussein began to talk about his experience.
A month ago, Hussein was entrusted by Du Wei and went to the Frozen Forest. With his strong strength, he was naturally not afraid of the dangerous environment in the Frozen Forest. He just went all the way north, crossed the Great Round Lake, and went to the tree people settlement.
of that valley.
But just on the way around the Great Round Lake, Hussein discovered some unusual traces.
"At the beginning, I saw the body of a magical beast. It was an ice and snow magical wolf. Judging from its size, it should have been at the critical point of evolution. The wolf was nailed to death with an ice pick.
Standing on a big tree, my body was already frozen. What surprised me at the time was that the place had already crossed the Great Round Lake. Even those brave mercenary groups, no one dared to go north of the Great Round Lake. Then.
The next day I saw several corpses of Warcraft, which were several earth dragons. As you know, the scales of earth dragons are extremely strong, and of the things I saw, every earth dragon was easily cut into pieces.
A few pieces, obviously only the fighting spirit of a high-level warrior can reach that level. I looked at the wounds and cuts carefully, and then made a judgment: This guy is a strong man. I am afraid that even if I take action personally, the most I can do is
Just do it to the same extent.
On the third day, I saw something even more interesting: I was walking north along the shore of Great Round Lake, and I found an iceberg appearing in the lake. It was obviously made by someone. The small transparent iceberg was floating on the lake.
On the lake and in the iceberg, a storm ice bear was frozen in the ice. It seems that the person who made the move is very good at ice. This is the conclusion I made. "
"Is it Rodriguez who took action?" Duwei asked.
"Yes." Hussein nodded.
"Why did that guy end up in the frozen forest?" Du Wei frowned.
Hussein hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "He is looking for me."
Rodriguez helped the eldest prince during the coup in the imperial capital that day, and then drifted away. But the strength of the Holy Knight was finally known to everyone. The originally recognized first knight in the mainland was the traitor Hussein of the Holy Knights of the Temple.
.But after Rodriguez showed the strength of the Paladin that day and killed the gray swordsman under Emperor Augustine VI in one fell swoop, Rodriguez had already replaced Hussein in everyone's hearts.
He has achieved the status of "the first knight in the mainland".
Prior to this, although Hussein had been wanted by the temple, his "record" of killing two great knight captains, killing the chief judge, and killing many holy knights who were chasing him allowed him to still firmly occupy the mainland.
The status of the first knight. After Rodriguez rose like a meteor, Hussein's status gradually wavered.
After all, although Hussein's record is brilliant, everyone also speculates that he may have broken through the holy level, but it is just a guess. Rodriguez, on the other hand, is a real holy level.
From this point of view, Rodriguez has almost reached the pinnacle of warriors in the Roland continent. The reason why this low-key paladin appeared in the frozen forest is to find Hussein!
To reach his level of cultivation, what he needs is to find an opponent whose strength is comparable to his own. Ordinary people can no longer satisfy his pursuit of practicing martial arts. At this time, the only one who can still enter Rodriguez's eyes is a man who has been beaten.
Hussein is wanted!
According to the news in the temple, Hussein was last seen in the frozen forest.
No one knew that Hussein followed Du Wei out of the frozen forest. The last information about his whereabouts was that he disappeared into the frozen forest.
Rodriguez, on the other hand, set his target on Hussein.
"Have you met?" Du Wei said in a serious tone.
"Encountered." Hussein nodded.
"The results of it?"
Hussein seemed to be silent for a while, and his expression looked a bit confusing to Du Wei. Then suddenly, this cold paladin actually smiled: "You want to ask, who won?"
Du Wei did not deny: "Of course I want to know. You are now the two strongest warriors on the continent."
"Okay." Hussein nodded, and then he seemed to make an understatement: "I won, but he didn't lose."
Du Wei was stunned.
"We competed twice." Hussein said calmly: "In the first one, he had the upper hand because he had a sword like Beauty Under the Moon. Although I was at a disadvantage, he couldn't break the fighting spirit of the stars, and we didn't try our best.
So I stopped for the time being. The second time, he gave up the advantage of the beauty under the moon, and I defeated him."
It's that simple?
Of course Du Wei knew that the competition between the two paladins was definitely not as easy as Hussein said in a few words!
The peak showdown between the two powerful men on the mainland was definitely a wonderful and fierce competition. Unfortunately, I was not able to witness it with my own eyes.
"The injury on my shoulder is what he left me." Hussein snorted: "But he won't be able to fight anyone again for at least a year!"
"Then this beauty under the moon..." Du Wei frowned.
Hussein did not answer the question directly, but seemed to smile. He looked at Du Wei: "Did you know? You almost died."
Du Wei was a little confused: "What does it have to do with me?"
"After we finished fighting, both sides stopped... We did not engage in a life-or-death duel. It is rare to have such a good opponent in this world. He asked me where he could find me in the future, and I told him that I
Maybe in the northwest... When he heard this, he looked very surprised. Then he told me that he was about to come to the northwest. And he told me that he was entrusted by someone to come to the northwest to find you... for assistance.
you."
Du Wei was stunned for a moment, then looked surprised: "He... is here to assist me?"
"I was also surprised by this... However, he told me that after the coup, the eldest prince died. Rodriguez originally hated you. Because the eldest prince was kind to him after all. Although he promised the eldest prince to do
Three things have been paid. But after all, you played a key role in the coup. You are lucky if Rodriguez doesn't trouble you... Duwei, I was not with you at that time.
If he had secretly come to assassinate you at that time, with his strength, even if you had a few more lives, you would have been lost long ago."
Du Wei remained silent.
"However, fortunately, someone persuaded him. Under that person's persuasion, Rodriguez changed his mind, and under that person's entrustment, he decided to come to the northwest to assist you. His original plan was to find someone in the frozen forest.
After I competed, I left for the northwest." Hussein sighed: "In the end, things went a little awry. The two of us competed. Although neither of us fought for our lives, it still severely damaged our vitality and both of us were injured.
At that time, we were not too far from the canyon of the tree tribe, so I decided to take him to that canyon to recuperate. In the canyon... we met the guys from the dragon tribe."
Du Wei's face darkened: "Could it be that old dragon who broke his oath and came to us to settle an old score?"
Hussein shook his head: "It's not that old dragon... However, the guy who came this time is probably not strong enough for me to deal with alone. This guy's magical strength is very average, but his strength and physical strength are... comparable
Called the number one in the Dragon Clan. I think you must still remember that stupid dragon guarding the gate of the Dragon Clan when we arrived at the Dragon Clan Sacred Mountain, right?"
That stupid dragon? Is he the guy who stumped him with a math problem?
"That guy is here this time."
After hearing this, Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out to be that idiot... Is the leader of the Dragon Clan crazy? Send such an idiot out?"
Hussein said coldly: "It's not just a simple idiot... This guy's magic seems to be very poor, but his physical strength... Duwei, based on my estimation, I'm afraid even that old dragon,
That’s all. Moreover, I heard that in the Dragon Clan, if we simply compare martial arts and physical strength, even the leader of the Dragon Clan is not as good as this idiot."
"And..." Hussein looked ugly: "This guy told me that the leader of the Dragon Clan has made a decision. Whoever takes your head back can inherit the position of its leader! That old dragon
My three sons have now set off from the Holy Mountain to come to Roland Continent to look for you."
Du Wei's scalp started to feel numb.
Three dragon princes?
Come to think of it, that old dragon is so powerful, so his son might not be any worse, right?
"Wait...you said this idiot told you this...what's its purpose?" Du Wei frowned.
"..." Hussein looked gloomy: "This is what I think is the most dangerous part of this matter. It told me that it came to you to protect you... The dragon clan is very dissatisfied with the clan leader's decision. Everyone is dissatisfied with the clan leader's decision.
You want to seize the position of heir to the patriarch. So some people don’t want you to die in the hands of those three dragon princes! Moreover, this idiot actually brought some information about those three dragon princes... It told me that if possible
In other words, its master hopes that these three dragon princes will not return to the sacred mountain alive!"
Du Wei's eyes lit up!
"According to the agreement, for the sake of fairness, the three dragon princes decided to come to you separately. Each guy has a month as a deadline. If one fails, then the second one will continue. If nothing else, the first one will
What comes to you is the eldest son of that old dragon, a dragon who is good at magic. According to the intelligence, it is not good at martial arts, but it is very good at dragon language magic."
Du Wei's mind flashed: "Oh...since someone wants to cooperate...hum, then it must also provide some weaknesses of the dragon prince, right?"
Hussein suddenly laughed: "Indeed, it told me the weakness of this dragon prince..."
At this moment, in the North Country, which is still a frozen world, in the northern part of the frozen forest, in the canyon where the tree people live, a tall and thin figure stands at the mouth of the canyon, looking at the vast sea of snow, facing the biting cold wind, facing
South. His deep eyes were flashing with thoughts, and there was a hint of weakness on his pale face.
"Teacher Lan Hai... I hope your choice is correct. That Du Wei, can he really change Northwest?" Rodriguez whispered to himself.
