Chapter 525 Confrontation
Perhaps only by standing in front of the Earth Bear in person can one fully feel how terrifying the sense of oppression coming from him is.
Not to mention the opponent he is facing now, Ilea has a huge gap in body size with him.
Anyone who saw this scene couldn't help but picture a brown bear hunting a hare in their mind.
Silver Hand even took a breath of air and said to Kieran on the side, "It's over, it seems we have to find a new boss. That Earth Bear is too strong, and it's actually more terrifying than the rumors say."
Kieran was also frightened, but he quickly regained his composure, "Sir Ilea has been favored by Saturday, and she will be unrivaled on the battlefield."
"Do you believe this kind of nonsense?!" Silver Hand couldn't help but roll his eyes, "You might not be able to beat the Earth Bear if you come by yourself on a Saturday.
After a pause, he added, "And it's not just you who have a backer, there are others too."
While he was speaking, Cornelia also walked into the competition arena with a maid.
The Earth Bear immediately knelt down on one knee after seeing the priestess, while Cornelia stood in front of him, placed a hand on the top of his head, and blessed him.
When she finished reciting the spell, the giant sword of the Earth Bear suddenly ignited with raging fire and turned into a flaming sword.
The crowd was startled at first, and then burst into unprecedented cheers.
In the past few days, Ilea and the Shuangxiujiao behind her had been performing miracles, while Cornelia just sat motionless in the stands.
Just when the onlookers were a little disappointed with the Church of Life, the priestess finally showed her hand.
The Royal Capital was originally the headquarters of the Church of Life. Nearly half of the people present today were believers of the Goddess of Life. When they saw this miraculous scene, they all became excited.
Some people even crawled to the ground in excitement, calling the names of Cornelia and the goddess Varlia.
The priestess then glanced at Miss Rabbit aside and said lightly, "It's a pity that Merlin is not here today, otherwise I would have liked to communicate with him more."
The female lord curled her lips with some disdain and thought, well, isn't it just about summoning flames? It's not like she can't do it.
While thinking about her, she also took out the lighter, turned the gear, and then, a small flame popped out.
The girl looked at the flames the size of her fingernails, and then looked at the blazing fire on the Earth Bear Sword. Well, in terms of momentum, the opponent had indeed won.
But today it’s not about comparing who has the bigger flames.
"I can defeat you without the help of Prophet Merlin," Miss Rabbit said.
Cornelia didn't argue with the female lord after hearing this, but just said, "Then let me see what else you can do."
After saying that, she took the maid and left the competition ground.
At this time, the referee came over and was about to check the weapons of the two people. The female lord suddenly had an idea.
"Wait a minute, I also have to hold a ceremony here. Please give me strength on Saturday."
The referee nodded, took two steps back, and signaled the girl to help herself. Miss Rabbit looked at the Earth Bear with a provocative look.
"Since Priest Cornelia has shown me her ability to control fire, let me choose something you are good at to show you how powerful next Saturday is."
Ilea pointed to a big tree outside the competition venue as she spoke, "I heard that you are very powerful. Can you cut down that tree with one sword?"
The Earth Bear looked in the direction of the girl's finger and frowned.
The trunk of that tree was so thick that it was hard for a person to hold it, and it was impossible to cut it with a sword.
The Earth Bear is quite confident in his own power. He was already extremely powerful before he met the Cornelia Priest. Later, with the help of the blood potion, his power increased to a higher level.
On the continent of Bratis, the Earth Bear didn't think anyone could surpass him in strength.
What he couldn't do, it was impossible for anyone to do it.
So he snorted coldly, "What are you talking about?"
The referee then reminded, "Sir Ilea, you have entered the competition arena. According to the regulations, you cannot leave until the winner is determined."
"It doesn't matter, let me just call someone to open the eyes of the stupid guy opposite."
Cornelia had already walked to the side of the competition arena, but stopped again when she heard these words. Edward II in the stands also became interested at this time.
"One sword chops down a tree, and it's a big tree. I really want to see it."
Since His Majesty the Emperor has spoken, of course the referee has no reason to stop him.
The female lord pretended to think for a while, then nodded to Jude, "It's up to you, you come and chop down the tree."
Jude nodded, and the crowd took the initiative to make way for him, allowing him to carry the Holy Sword Dongcheng to the tree.
Jude first prayed to Saturday and then dismissed the people behind the tree.
When the chainsaw was started, the holy sword roared and roared, and the sound startled the people around it.
Then they saw Jude slash the strange-looking flat sword in his hand towards the big tree in front of him. His movements were not fast, and his swing was not wide.
But a miracle happened at the next moment. The thin sword blade was slashed into the trunk of the tree. Although the speed was not fast, it kept moving forward steadily. After a while, it came out from the other side of the trunk and smashed the tree. The big tree was cut off in its middle.
Then Jude stretched out his hand and pressed on the trunk of the tree. With a slight push, the upper part of the big tree fell to the ground.
The whole process seemed very easy, and Jude didn't even break a sweat.
The crowd burst into exclamation again, and the Earth Bear fell silent at this moment.
A flash of light flashed in Edward II's eyes and he asked, "The warrior stepped forward and spoke. What is your name, which family you come from, and why don't you sign up to participate in this tournament?"
His Majesty the Emperor asked several questions in succession, but Jude said calmly, "I am just a nobody. Saturday gave me strength, and I will always follow the Prophet Merlin."
Edward II couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he heard this. Counting this time, it was already the second time he had hit a wall, and now he had some reaction. The reason why Ferdinand didn't want to become his retinue probably had something to do with the prophet named Merlin. related.
And Ilea, they seem to be very religious about what they call Saturday.
Jude then used a knife to carve the symbol of Saturday on the fallen tree trunk, and asked Ilea to pray for the second time.
The referee was finally able to check the weapons and armor of both sides. After confirming that there were no problems, he asked the two people to go to both ends of the competition field and wait for the competition to begin. (End of chapter)
