Chapter 537 The Last Battle
The appearance of the hunchback caused a commotion in the crowd.
For most people living on the continent of Bratis, this is the first time they have seen a person with wings on their back.
Some people even regard hunchbacks as the incarnation of gods, because according to records, the wind god Papagani also has a pair of similar wings.
This could explain why the Silver Knight, who was almost invincible in the capital, was defeated by him.
For the few people who knew about the existence of the Wing Clan, the appearance of the hunchback foreshadowed many things.
Du Lun, the captain of the guard, immediately drew out his sword and shouted, "Protect Your Majesty and the Queen!"
Essos, the commander of the garrison, also stood up at this time, "The archers are ready and aim at the target. The others will join me in taking down the spy of the Winged Tribe."
The hunchback stood in the arena, looking at the guards approaching him, as well as the bows, arrows and swords pointing at him, and just smiled.
"I heard that people in your country always take their oaths seriously, but unfortunately it seems to disappoint me today. Are you planning to deprive me of my qualifications and imprison me?"
"You disguised your identity and sneaked into the tournament with evil intentions, and even murdered the Silver Knight." Essos said solemnly, "Do you still expect to be able to continue participating in the tournament unharmed after being exposed?"
"Foreigners are not prohibited from participating in the martial arts tournament in your precious country," said the hunchback. "As for why I hide my identity... Just look at your reactions now. This is the reason why I didn't want to show my true identity in the previous rounds.
"Then why are you showing off your wings now?" Edward II asked.
"It's very simple, because of her." Hunchback pointed at Ilea, "I must admit that there are opponents worthy of my respect in this martial arts tournament, and I heard that one of my companions also died in her hands. .”
"Gabriel was not killed by me, but by David."
Miss Rabbit is already numb. Why do these people put blame on her that does not exist at all?
After she captured Gabriel, she sent him to Yanxue City. With so many people watching, they could all testify that David was obviously worried that Gabriel would expose him and chose to kill him.
The hunchback seemed not to have heard, "In order to show respect for Sir Ilea, I have decided to go all out in this competition. Of course, if we can continue to compete."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to pay attention to etiquette with the enemy," Essos said. "He sneaked into the royal capital. Obviously he didn't just want to participate in the martial arts tournament. He should just arrest the person for interrogation."
However, Edward II said, "No, let them compare. He is right. We must abide by the rules we have set. This is the difference between us and those barbarians.
"And... I have confidence in Sir Ilea. She will win the contest and convince this rude person to lose."
Essos frowned. He knew that Edward II had made up his mind, so he asked his guards to withdraw their weapons.
The emperor stared at the winged warriors on the field and said coldly, "Foreigners, you and your bandit companions should not have come to this land. I will prove it to you. It is necessary to anger a powerful empire. Pay the price.”
The hunchback curled his lips and said, "What a coincidence, I came to this martial arts competition to tell you that your so-called strength is invincible."
After the hunchback finished speaking, he looked at Ilea and said, "Remember my name, Moen. I come from the Gray Eagle tribe and I am a warrior. I am not comparable to a conspirator like Gabriel."
The female lord ignored Moen and saw Li Yu waving to her and walked over.
"Be careful if he attacks from the air. Take this." Li Yu handed over a dragon scale shield and then lowered his voice.
"You can try to shoot him right at the beginning of the competition. Use the new thunderbolt you got. It has a large killing range, so you don't need to aim too accurately."
Miss Rabbit took the shield, nodded, and returned to the referee. However, she walked a few steps and then turned back to Li Yu and said, "I will not marry any prince."
"Really?"
"Well, no." The girl said firmly, "Because I have someone I like."
After saying the last sentence, she quickly lowered her head and never looked at Li Yu again.
After checking the weapons and equipment of both sides, the referee motioned for the two to return to their original positions.
Then, in the expectant eyes of a crowd of onlookers, the start of the competition was announced.
As soon as he finished speaking, Moen saw the shy and shy female lord suddenly pull out an iron horn from her waist.
Moen has always regarded the girl in front of him as his number one enemy. Of course, he has also studied Ilea's battles and knows that she has three very powerful iron pipes and a weapon that can release invisible killing moves like those iron pipes. ax.
But Moen also noticed that the four weapons all had effective ranges. Ilea would usually wait until the target was six or seven steps away from her before taking action.
In other words, as long as both parties can keep this distance, it will be safer.
This is nearly impossible for other contestants because to attack, they also need to be close to their opponent.
Moreover, the arena is so large that when one party intentionally moves towards the other, the distance between the two parties can easily be shortened to within seven steps.
However, for Moen, the competition ground is not just a flat surface. He can not only move to the southeast, northwest, but also choose to... fly upward.
This is the unique advantage of the Wing Clan. They are children of the sky, and the wings on their backs give them the ability to fly.
As long as he can fly, Morn is already invincible, and then he can attack from the sky downwards.
But this time, a new pipe appeared in the hands of the female lord that he had never seen before. The pipe was thicker and had a larger mouth, which gave Moen a vague feeling of something bad.
And the girl didn’t even wait for him to get close before she resolutely pulled the trigger!
This time the gunfire was so loud that those who were close felt the ground beneath their feet tremble, and a large amount of white smoke sprayed out from the muzzle of the gun.
The body of the female lord was also shaken back half a step.
After Moen felt the danger, he spread his wings immediately and wanted to fall into the embrace of the sky.
His legs were slightly bent, his muscles exploded, and he suddenly exerted force. At the same time, he flapped his wings and rushed into the air. He flew higher and higher, and quickly distanced himself further from the female lord.
Although Ilea reacted quickly and quickly pulled out the second and third guns, no matter how far away they were, she raised her hand and fired, but it was difficult to accurately control the impact point of the bullet with the smoothbore gun. Both shots missed. (End of chapter)
