"The Midas Sword."
Looking at the direction of the fallen archer, Yun Jingbu on the sidelines sighed in a low voice: "The sword style that specifically attacks the enemy's vital parts was actually used by him in such a place... There are still other swordsmen in this world.
Doesn’t that person know how to use a sword?”
"Being able to change the trajectory of the sword so easily, and at that critical moment just now... Hey, this guy is really as strong as the legend says." Phoenix Tianwang, who crossed his arms, responded with a smile: "It's a pity that now we
They are enemies, otherwise... maybe we can have a good communication."
"It seems that you all noticed the sword strike just now." The resurrected red-haired demon looked at the figure of the man standing in the center of the arena seriously: "If it's our turn again... which one of you
Do you have the confidence to challenge his swordsmanship?"
"Don't worry, I told you to put important things first." Phoenix Tianwang interrupted his guild president's proposal again: "Besides..."
"The Condor Shooter lying there seems to have not given up yet."
Whoosh——
The imperceptible sound of breaking through the air appeared in everyone's ears again, and then flew into the distance against the already rugged ground of the arena. Duan Qing, who dodged for a step, then looked in the direction of the arrow.
, unexpectedly found the archer getting up again: "I, I'm not dead yet..."
"Oh, of course you're not dead." Duan Qing smiled and spread his hands: "If I could knock you to death with one hammer, you wouldn't be regarded by the paparazzi as a new master and moved online, but you would be reduced to everyone
The butt of laughter.”
"...That's right."
The squeaking sound of the bowstring tightening sounded once again opposite Duan Qing. It was the sound caused by the archer named Baibu Wushuang slowly pulling the bow: "So... do you want to fight the second round?"
"I'll be with you at any time." Duan Qing took back his weapon: "If you don't care about your injuries..."
"Stop."
A loud shout suddenly sounded in the stands where the city lord was sitting, and it also interrupted a new round of battle that was about to begin. However, this time it was not Reiner who was presiding over the throne war, but Reiner who had previously proposed to participate in the war.
The mysterious player: "Come back, Wushuang."
"..."
"Your right hand is injured, this fight is meaningless."
Looking at the figure who was still pulling up the bowstring and not moving at all, the mysterious man with a hood covering his face continued: "Even if you withdraw from the battle now, no one will blame you."
"Are you right, Mr. Joel?" He turned around, smiled and whispered to old Joel who was also silent beside him: "I believe that in your eyes... we have overfulfilled our mission.
"
"What exactly do you want to do?" Old Joel asked with a trembling voice: "And you are taking my apprentice with you..."
"We are friends, so of course we will not harm him." The man replied with a smile: "Besides...the mission of an adventurer is to take risks. Compared with the tasks you shoulder, these challenges are nothing at all.
,right?"
"You...do you know..."
"Employees sometimes investigate the client's identity and background, but it's not a big deal."
Jumping off the arena, the hooded man walked to the archer's side in a few steps, pulled up the other person's body, and walked towards the door: "Besides, we are the most professional people, there is no investigation
Be clear about the relationship between you..."
"We will not take action lightly."
Turning back and giving Duan Qing a strange look, the man and Baibu Wushuang just walked out of the door, leaving only two unobstructed back figures, and the sound of discussion and murmurs again in the field, and a few
The holder of the throne who was sitting on top then pointed the muzzle in the direction of Old Joel, seemingly intending to raise a new round of doubts about the previous person's remarks, while Duan, the other duelist who was left behind,
Qing, his eyes gradually returned from that place: "The Frog Demon Cult..."
"It's that guy, sir." A soft whisper then sounded in his ears, and at the same time, the figure of the maid belonging to Ninglan appeared: "When Ninglan was fighting in the city..."
"I know, that's why it sounds familiar." Duan Qing waved his hand to interrupt the other party: "Although it didn't produce the effect I wanted... but they are indeed the people we are looking for."
"Restorers?" Xu Yu Liushang, who gradually came over, frowned and said, "Can they actually appear in such a place with such arrogance?"
"God knows what kind of methods they have, but what is certain is that... their power in this city is probably much greater than we imagined."
Looking at Old Joel who was still under siege on the high platform, Duan Qing said in a low voice: "Since you said that there is no problem with being second in the world, then the possibility of the existence of several major guilds can almost be eliminated, so the remaining
The only possibility is that... they are an independent organization."
"Or a guild." Xuyu Liushang responded with a low smile: "A secret player guild."
"There is no Adventurer Association in the Free City, so it should be very easy to form an unregistered adventure group." Ningyu Ninglan also analyzed in a low voice: "But if they really have such a big influence,
Their number and strength will definitely not be small..."
"These big guys in the Free City must know something. The city lord just now didn't come forward to stop it... which already explains a lot of problems." Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "Maybe they didn't hide it too much.
They just keep hiding under some kind of mask. Only in this way can they act openly and not be discovered by others... Well."
"Congratulations, Special Envoy."
In the scene where several people were silent at the same time, the heavily armored Reiner appeared behind everyone again, and then with a clanking sound of collision, he performed a soldier's courtesy towards Duan Qing: "Because of the other party's unauthorized actions.
Leave the field, and you will automatically win this game..."
"...I would like to ask you something." Duan Qing bowed in return, and then asked with a serious face: "Do you... know the two people who left just now?"
"No, I don't know them."
Glancing in the direction of the door, Reiner replied very simply: "Sorry."
"...Really?" Duan Qing pressed his eyebrows: "So...that means the Lord of the City knows them?"
"..."
The silver and black knight did not answer immediately this time, but fell into silence for a period of time. It was not until the dispute between Old Joel and Eduan above was once again suppressed by the intimidation of the city lord that he calmly said his answer.
: "Whether the Lord of the City knows those two adventurers is not something I should know, so I am sorry that I cannot answer your question..."
"oh?"
Looking at the other party deeply, Duan Qing's doubts became more serious: "Without an invitation letter from the city lord, it is difficult to enter this arena easily, right? Even if you don't know that person, at least you know
You should know what identities those two people had sneaked in..."
"About this... Just as the special envoy heard before, they came in with Joel as Joel's retainers." Reiner replied in a deep voice: "Joel himself also made a decision on this matter.
He is sure, but now he seems not to be responsible for what those two people did just now, so the only thing that can be known now is that they are not part of the second adventure group in the world..."
"No need for unnecessary explanation, Reiner."
The clear voice of the city lord suddenly broke into the conversation between the two people, and at the same time suppressed all of Reiner's next words: "The more important thing now is... Special Envoy, do you want to continue fighting?"
"Of course, the game continues." Duan Qing paused, then saluted the aloof city lord: "I still have strength."
"That is to say... you still want to continue to accept the challenges of everyone present?"
"There is no doubt, my lord." Looking at the old Joel who had died down and had no energy, Duan Qing replied loudly: "And..."
"There should be very few candidates left, right?"
The empty arena once again became much quieter with Duan Qing's words. It seemed that many people present were aware of a problem that was gradually emerging, because as Duan Qing's team won one victory after another, there were still some problems.
There are fewer and fewer candidates qualified to issue challenges: "... Fenya."
"exist."
Amidst the whispers of the city lord, the female mad warrior sitting in the corner stood up and said, "Your Majesty the city lord."
"Are you interested...to learn from me next time?"
"...of course I'm interested."
Amid the uproar that gradually rose in the arena, Fenya, who was carrying a big sword with both hands, showed a unique smile: "But... Fenya will only fight against strong opponents. Enemies that are too weak will not be able to fight."
It will get my attention."
"Among the candidates for the Twelve Thrones, it seems that only you and Tielin have not yet taken the stage." The Lord's voice then sounded slowly: "Isn't this enough to prove their strength?"
"Huh, don't mention this." The female warrior with muscles all over her body snorted disdainfully: "Either you underestimate the enemy or you are careless, or you just find a scapegoat to get rid of the problem... If this can be called a competition, all the things just now
The battle... I can easily complete it with one hand."
"...Hmph, hehe, hahahaha!"
The city lord on the high platform gradually burst into laughter, and finally lowered his head again: "It seems that the trial in our Free City has not only not ended, but has just begun... Special envoy, do you have anything to say?"
"I have something%#@ I want to say, but for the sake of harmony between the two countries..."
Looking at the figure of the wild female warrior with a wry smile, Duan Qing sighed and shook his head: "Well... Lord City Lord, we have fought so many games now, even without considering the injuries and combat capabilities of the members.
A loss should at least give us some time to rest, right?"
"Are you going to use delaying tactics... Huh, how long do you want to rest?"
"How about tomorrow? Let's fight again tomorrow..."
"no."
The black figure on the high platform waved his hand and then pointed outside the arena: "There are countless rats outside that want to harass my city. The tide is about to fall. We don't have much time left, so... the throne
The war will end today."
So what does that ebbing tide mean...
Looking around at the other throne holders who also looked surprised, Duan Qing and Xu Yuliu exchanged a look with each other: "If the Lord of the City thinks so..."
He took a deep breath: "Why don't we fight the rest of the battle together?"
"...This is the most interesting thing I heard today."
The city lord on the high platform showed an interesting tone: "What do you want to say, your special envoy?"
"Stark, Huskar, Phillips..." Duan Qing's voice slowly sounded: "Added Eduin, Joel, Gallo...Excluding Gardevoir who was not present and those who were ousted.
There are not many throne holders left on the field for the pair of family brothers. The only ones left who are not on the field yet are Barbarian Fenya, Captain Tielin, and..."
"Silver Knight Reiner." He pointed to the heavily armored figure standing in front of him: "Am I right?"
"...That's right." The Lord City Lord's voice then sounded leisurely: "The three strongest people among the holders of the throne."
"Since there is not much time left, and we are all defeated, how about we let them come together and have a duel with our Fool Adventure Group?"
Amidst the gasps from the surrounding audience, Duan Qing smiled and spread his arms: "This throne war does not prohibit team battles, but as the defending party, I am afraid that none of you will accept us together.
It was suggested by someone else, so..."
"Do you want to use such conditions as the last one to end this duel?" The city lord accepted Duan Qing's words, and then laughed louder than before: "Okay! Very good! This is
A real challenge! I admire your courage, Mr. Envoy... No, adventurer!"
"I also appreciate your courage, boy." Tielin put down the wine bottle and stood up immediately, his wine-stained mouth gradually grinning: "But..."
"This kind of suggestion... is really unpleasant."
boom!
With a heavy landing sound, the figure wearing an iron hook fell to the ground in the center of the arena. Then in a cloud of flying dust, he turned back and shouted to the stands: "What's wrong, devil? Are you?"
Don’t you have the courage to respond to the provocations of these arrogant boys?”
"of course not."
The murderous aura glowing with blood gradually appeared from the body of the female warrior, turning her eyes into blood-like bright red, and then with an extremely fast shadow, suddenly appeared on the other side of Duan Qing: "
You are showing contempt for me and the dignity of a mad warrior, Mo Shang Qing Shan."
"I didn't mean that. I just made a proposal. Although judging from the results... this proposal seems to be very popular." Duan Qing, who was standing in front of the two leaders, wiped his cold sweat and smiled, then turned to his side and said something.
Reiner who has not left: "So... what about you? Do you want to come with us?"
"No."
The eyes behind the heavy helmet glanced at Duan Qing, and then disappeared in front of Duan Qing as its owner left: "If you are lucky enough to survive..."
"I will wait for you up there and then give you the final judgment."
