"So, no matter which one these beasts choose to kill, they will be called warriors. Will they go to the palace?"
Lake asked, staring at the bearskin man who followed the officer into the palace.
"Of course, but you really have that kind of strength."
The hunter did not see what Lake meant, but continued to explain, "After all, if he fought with this beast, he would be seriously injured even if he won - the king would definitely not see a stupid disabled person."
"So, do you have to make sure you are not injured?"
"Not necessarily. It's rare for guys like the weird guy just now. Some minor injuries will not affect other people's opinions."
Lake nodded, and she looked at the other hunters around, several of whom looked significantly stronger than the others, surrounded by iron cages near the lions and tigers and wild boars, as if waiting for something.
And there was no one next to the iron cage containing a bear.
Not long after, a man next to the wild boar iron cage seemed to have made up some determination. He suddenly stood up and took out some coins and handed them to the guards. Then he lifted the hunting knife around his waist with one hand, picked up a spear with the other, and walked towards the iron cage door.
Seeing this scene, many onlookers screamed excitedly.
After that, the man who entered the wild boar's iron cage also carried his sword and prepared to start fighting.
"Another good man!"
The hunter next to Lake also clapped and cried.
"All those who observe beasts have the ambition to come forward to fight?"
Lake thought for a while and asked.
"Yes, after all, we are hunters, and there are many good people who have hunted wild animals here. Although we cannot use traps, observing the physical condition of prey and fighting against inferior ones is the basic skill of hunters."
The hunter nodded, showing a hint of confidence, pointing to the person who was fighting with the boar in the iron cage and said, "These beasts will be frightened at first when they see so many people, but over time they will become slack.
In addition, they did not eat in the iron cage - both strength and spirit were much weaker. ”
"So the people in the front of the iron cage are all observing the state of the beast?"
"Yes, as long as you choose the right opponent, there is a high probability of winning this battle."
The hunter said, pointing to the other side, carrying a bear's iron cage, "Like that thing, there are few hunters who want to challenge it. Even if they are hungry for a day, ordinary swords cannot penetrate the bear's skin!
Besides, that guy looks like a alien species, which is one head taller than the bears I have ever seen. How could a hunter who knows a little bit more to seek death? ”
"Sir, do you know a lot?"
Lake was a little surprised.
When Lake asked, the hunter's expression became more proud and waved his hand:
"Of course, most hunters come here not to watch the fun - to get rewards and titles from His Majesty the King, that is the pinnacle of his hunting career!"
"So, are you going to challenge too?"
"Of course, I heard that occasionally there are guys like leopards, that's my goal." The hunter smiled confidently.
"I thought you would challenge stronger ones..."
"Those who will do that are the only ones who want to show the king their strong ones, or ignorant fools."
When the hunter said this, he looked at Lake again, and the smile on his face became a little weaker, "But... well, I actually came here for the sake of commendation. Until then, I can't be hurt."
Lake was stunned for a moment. This ordinary hunter seemed to have something unknown hidden in his heart?
Behind his confident mask, there seemed to be some other emotions hidden.
"No matter what you are going to do, I wish you good luck first."
Lake thought for a while and said seriously.
"Uh, thank you, are you leaving?"
After hearing Lake's words, the hunter realized something and put away his smile, looking much more serious than before, "That's right, a little girl like you will not stay outside for too long.
Sorry, little girl, it's a bit presumptuous. I've said so much to you, but in fact... it's you who reminded me of someone, someone who is very important to me. ”
When the hunter said this, he didn't mean to say anything again, but laughed again, "Goodbye, little girl."
Lake knew what the hunter had misunderstood, but he had no explanation, and just glanced at the hunter in front of him seriously.
This hunter looks ordinary, but after training, he looks stronger than ordinary people.
On his chest and inside his clothes, there was a bag hanging in it, which...
Is there magic?
Some kind of prop with magic?
"Goodbye."
Lake withdrew his gaze, nodded, and walked towards the beast cage that was pretending to be a bear.
"Huh? Little girl, what are you going to do? Although the bear is in the cage, it is still very dangerous-"
Lake did not answer again, but walked straight to the soldier of the Hangte Kingdom guarding the iron cage. Under the shocked gaze of many people, he took out a gold coin and handed it to the soldier.
"Little girl, you want..."
"You can see your king by defeating this bear, right?"
Lake asked directly, "I challenge this bear."
"You challenge?"
The soldier frowned and looked at Lake. Although the girl had fought many times, her skin was still as white and delicate as snow, without any scars or cocoons.
"Little girl, don't joke."
"I'm not kidding. I asked, you hunter trials, there is no threshold. As long as I pay, I can challenge them, right?" Lake said.
"Little girl, this is not a house. If you want to play, I can accompany you, but you may not understand hunting..."
"Sir, I understand, in a sense, I am also a hunter."
Lake said again.
"You, the hunter?"
The soldier looked at Lake again and finally placed his eyes on Poluo beside Lake, "Little girl, is it because of your hound?
IMHO, although your hunting dog looks like a rare breed - if you fight with a bear, it will turn into a pool of meat paste in less than ten seconds! ”
At this time, the officer who had previously sent the bearskin into the palace also came out again. Seeing Lake standing in front of the iron cage, his eyebrows were frowning, his face darkened, and he stepped forward and said:
"Miss, although you are an envoy, if you feel that death here can make Your Majesty change his mind, then there is no need to..."
"You can see your king by defeating this bear, right?"
Lake no longer wanted to explain, but just repeated his question again.
"Of course, but if the challenger dies..."
The officer was still speaking in a sarcastic tone, but Lake immediately interrupted him.
"This is enough."
After saying that, Lake went straight forward without asking the guards for the key to the cage.
The next moment, under the onlookers' puzzled gaze, a sword light lit up, and the metal cage lock as thick as a wrist was instantly cut open like a tofu block.
"Roar—"
Among them, the giant bear man stood up, his eyes were red and rushed up. He was locked in an iron cage for so long that this bear might have wanted to kill!
Just when everyone thought that the girl in the red cloak was about to be torn to pieces—
Lake's figure flashed and he appeared behind the giant bear. After that, she jumped up gently, raised her arm, pointed it as a knife, and slashed it at a speed that was difficult to see!
Before everyone on the field could react, the giant bear's body fell to the ground like a hill.
"What happened?! I didn't see clearly just now!"
"Why did that bear... fall down?!"
"Is it a girl who defeated that bear?"
"Also, she doesn't even look like her sword is useless, and I don't even see her movements clearly..."
Amid the discussion, Lake did not look at the bear who fainted on the ground, stepped over the bear's body, walked out of the iron cage, looked at the stunned officer, and asked again:
"Is this OK?"
The officer looked at the bear lying in the cage, then looked at Lake, especially Lake's snow-white arms - there was not even a red mark on it!
"Of course, of course, OK, Miss, Your Majesty the King... She will be happy to see you."
The officer no longer had his previous arrogance, and his voice seemed a little trembling, "Please follow me."
The palace of the Hangte Kingdom looks equally luxurious.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Many sculptures and decorations are made of pure gold.
During observation, Poluo noticed that many of the pure gold architectural parts should have been newly created within a few years.
Is the Hangte Kingdom very rich? Is it a good mineral in China?
Soon, after walking around several corridors, he entered a magnificent hall. The head of the hall was the golden crown of King Hang Te, sitting on the throne.
And the most eye-catching thing is that there is a golden lion half kneeling beside the king.
Poluo noticed that there seemed to be a little strange light in the lion's eyes.
"Your Majesty, this lady is the envoy of Xingluo City."
The officer leaned over to salute the king and said.
"Emunited by Xingluo City? Didn't I say I don't have time?"
King Hangte said with a frown when he looked at Lake's slender figure.
"I am guilty, but this lady... passed the hunter's trial."
The officer lowered his body and said.
"Passed the hunter trial? Just such a little girl? What can she kill?"
"The No. 14 bear monster, many people have seen it in the square, but I don't know how to go back on my word."
"Huh?"
After hearing this, King Hangte's face was replaced by a ray of confusion. After a few seconds of silence, he looked at Lake again, "What's the matter this time?"
Lake looked at the king, took out the envelope with the seal of Xingluo City from his arms, threw it at King Hante, and watched the king receive the envelope, and then said:
"In order to prevent more people from destroying their families and dying because of war, their wives and children from being separated, and to prevent the destruction of the kingdom of Sri, which is dominated by the devil, the flames of destruction will spread to more lands..."
"It's right, but war is only feared by the weak."
However, King Hangte sneered, opened the envelope, and looked at the contents, "I always use some righteousness to pull our kingdom in?"
But as he read, his expression became weird, his eyebrows were frowning, and he raised his head to look at Lake from time to time.
Finally, after he looked at the end of the first letter, he finally spoke:
"You Xingluocheng, do you think I am a fool? So, just deceive me like this in the letter?"
"Your Majesty, how could we deceive you?"
"Ha, didn't you deceive me?"
King Hangte sneered, looked at the contents of the letter again, and said, "Then explain to me what is King Sri who can kill 100,000 people with one sword? With such a person, you Xingluo City and these messy countries can survive now?"
"Your Majesty, this is true."
Lake said seriously, "I also brought other detailed documents and recording materials, all about the Kingdom of Sri and stored outside the palace - these are all needed to confront the Kingdom of Sri..."
"Wait, do you still think such a ridiculous thing can I promise you?"
King Hante raised the letter in his hand, "King Sri, who slaughtered the army with one sword, was killed by you, a little girl? Are you kidding? You mean that the king of the Son of the Stars is much more trustworthy!"
King Hangte said this, without waiting for Lake to refute, and snorted again:
"Also, you guys describe the Kingdom of Sri as a devil..."
"This is not a description, we have corresponding evidence." Lake corrected.
"But why didn't I see it?"
King Hante said, pointing to the gold decorations in the surrounding palaces, saying, "The Kingdom of Sri, has purchased weapons from us a few years ago. They are much more generous than you kingdoms and have given us ten times the premium of gold for a long time."
Speaking of this, King Hangte leaned forward, slapped his hand heavily on the handrail of the throne made of gold, and asked word by word:
"If you want to use something that is random, let us draw our swords toward each other?"
Hearing these words, Lake finally understood why the Hangte Kingdom refused to form an alliance, and he also had a bad attitude towards the messenger of Xingluo City.
"But these are indeed true. The devil may cooperate with you for a while, but if we fail, their butcher knife will definitely hang on your head!"
"Ha, it's like real."
King Hangte said slowly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, "I am the king, and many people are trying to deceive me, but this is the first time you have seen such a clumsy lie - I have the ability to distinguish between true and false!"
As he spoke, King Hangte whistled, and the strange lion next to his feet straightened up.
"This is a magical creature I hunted from the forest when I was young. It has wisdom to distinguish the truth or falsehood in your words."
King Hante touched the golden hair on the lion's head, looked at Lake, and narrowed his eyes, "I'll give you another chance, the messenger of Xingluo City, if you dare to deceive me, I will make you die in great pain!"
"What I said is true. King Sri does possess the long sword of the Tushiro Army, and it is indeed killed by me. The Kingdom of Sri is indeed controlled by the devil!"
Lake was not afraid, but he pronounced clearly and repeated word by word:
"Your Majesty, I have no intention of lying to you!"
The next moment, the lion at King Hangte's hand flashed with a subtle magic light in his eyes, and then he actually spoke:
"Your Majesty, there is nothing to deceive what the girl said in front of you."
"What?"
King Hangte was stunned when he heard this, frowned, and fell into a long silence. Finally, he spoke again, "Maybe, these fantasy things you said are true, but it is more likely that you are a guy who deceived himself."
"We have evidence-"
Lake frowned, but was interrupted by King Vante's wave.
"After that, you will send your so-called evidence, information... to the palace. I will judge whether it is true or not."
"So, you agree..." Lake raised his head.
"If you can really kill a devil king of the One Sword Slaughter Army, then there is no doubt that you are a powerful warrior, and I will respect you and the kingdom you represent for this."
"This is indeed true."
"Words cannot represent anything. You have to prove yourself, just like you pass the hunter's trial."
King Hangte narrowed his eyes and no longer showed a sarcastic expression, "Killing a beast in the cage is nothing.
You need to go to the Forbidden Forest with the Warriors of our Palace to join the Beasts and participate in the hunting ceremony-
Let me see if you are a real hunter or just a woman seeking fame! ”(The end of this chapter)
