Chapter 92 Knight Ike
Not to mention how Geralt and others solved their predicament in front of the broken bridge. Knight Ike, who was walking at the front, had already rushed all the way across the hillside and arrived at a small flat land covered with weeds and wild flowers. .
And just when Knight Ike was considering whether to rush directly across the flat land and rush to the cave on the top of the mountain along another road, a sound like a brass horn suddenly reached his ears.
"Knight Ike from Denesler, my name is Villentretames."
As the words fell, a huge golden body suddenly flew down from the sky and landed less than a hundred meters away from Knight Ike. In the center of the flat ground, while spreading his wings and moving limbs, he put on a welcoming posture that looked quite elegant, and continued to use his voice to say: "Please don't go any further." "The end of
this
road leads to The cave where my wife is, as a husband, I have the obligation to protect my wife." "
Anyone who continues to move forward will be my enemy."
"In order to protect my family, I will have a glorious battle with him. In a knightly duel, both sides use only traditional weapons, that is, no magic or fire breathing is allowed. Fight until one side surrenders." "Please give me your
answer, Knight Ike, are you willing to give up this operation?"
Listen. Hearing the voice that came directly into his mind, Knight Ike was a little confused. In his nearly twenty years of killing monsters, he had never seen a dragon with golden scales all over his body, and he had never seen a dragon that behaved so elegantly and acted like a gentleman. The same talking monster.
However, his confusion only lasted for less than a few seconds, and was immediately replaced by firm faith.
This tall knight, covered in heavy plate armor, pushed aside his face armor, revealing a pale face underneath, with his fanatical eyes sparkling.
He shouted loudly to the golden dragon:
"Evil dragon, in front of you is Ike from Deneles. Following the will of the gods, the purpose of my trip is to kill the evil dragon and protect Civilians here.”
"Since you have decided to protect your wife, I will not back down and will engage in a glorious knight's duel with you."
Hearing this, the golden dragon sighed humanely, and his body with golden scales quickly posed He took an offensive stance, raised his slender neck slightly, and the sound like a brass horn sounded again.
"Respectable Knight Ike, I admire your courage. I have made all preparations. Now, let this glorious duel begin."
On the battlefield, Ike no longer hesitated. He faced the sky He chanted loudly the gods he believed in, prayed for their blessings, and at the same time raised his spear to salute the golden dragon.
This is a glorious knight duel, no matter what the result, he must give the other party enough respect.
Wayne, who was hiding on another hill, watched all this, and at the same time he had to sigh in his heart. This was a knight with true faith. Although he was too rigid and did not know how to adapt, he was better than those who only played tricks and tricks. A noble knight with no sense of honor is much stronger.
After praying, Ike put down his metal mask, stared at the huge golden dragon with his eyes through the gap. After adjusting his breathing, he suddenly clamped the horse's belly with his stirrup, leaned forward, lowered his spear, and galloped towards the horse. Wherever the golden dragon was, he charged forward with all his strength.
The war horse dragged his heavy body forward at an extremely fast speed. The armored war horse and full-body plate armor made Ike like a speeding metal can. With only one man and one horse, he still had an unstoppable momentum
. To Ike's surprise, in the face of his powerful offensive, the golden dragon did not retreat to avoid it, nor did it go around behind him, but instead rushed towards him at full speed.
Seeing this situation, he did not blindly attack head-on. Although he had been moving at full speed, he skillfully changed direction at the last moment and raised his lance over the horse's head. He flew past the dragon, standing in the stirrups and thrusting his spear with all his strength.
Trying to poke the sharp spear point directly into the dragon's head, using the speed of both parties, to kill this terrifying giant beast with one blow.
But what people didn't expect was that this huge golden dragon had a completely unexpected reaction speed.
It turned sideways in a circle at an extremely fast speed, perfectly dodging the stabbing attack. Its movements were agile and graceful, and its huge body was withdrawn like a whip. With feline vigor and indifference, it instantly tore apart with its claws. Opened the horse's belly.
The horse stood up and let out a cry.
Even though Knight Ike was shocked, he did not drop his spear. When the horse fell, the dragon's claws lifted Ike from the saddle with just one wave. He was thrown into the air, the armor on his body made a harsh friction sound, and then fell hard to the ground. Even though he was hundreds of meters away, Wayne seemed to be able to hear the impact when he landed.
Facing such a high-altitude fall, it would be difficult for ordinary people to bear it, let alone a knight wearing heavy plate armor.
Knight Ike was instantly seriously injured by the fall, especially his legs, which were directly broken into fractures, shrunk beneath his body, and pulled in strange directions.
However, Knight Ike's will was quite firm. Even though the severe pain made him sweat on his forehead, tremble all over, and his face turned pale, he did not utter a cry or beg for mercy.
Instead, he stared blankly at the sky and muttered to himself, not knowing what he was talking about.
After defeating Ike, the golden dragon showed no mercy. He pressed Ike's horse with his paws, sat on the ground, bit the horse's body with his fanged mouth, tore off the armor on the horse, and then bit it on the horse. On its neck, the horse roared in terror, and finally convulsed and died, and was swallowed by the golden dragon.
On the top of the hillside where Ike came, the sorceress Yennefer used the power of magic to fly over the stone bridge, and Geralt and Dandelion who followed her happened to be the scene where Knight Ike challenged the golden dragon. See it in your eyes.
Seeing the incomparably brave Knight Ike being thrown into the air like a toy by this huge, ferocious and elegant golden beast, and then falling to the ground, where life and death were unknown, all of them looked solemn.
Unexpectedly, without seeing the legendary green dragon, a golden dragon appeared that should not have appeared in the real world. Not only was it several times the size of the green dragon, but his movements did not look clumsy like the legendary dragon at all. , instead he looks like a skilled warrior, elegant and deadly.
And when the three of them were still in a state of shock, a somewhat shrill, almost groggy voice came into their ears.
"Oh my god, I can't believe my eyes, a golden dragon, a living golden dragon."
The magician Dorrega Lei also used the power of spells to fly over the stone bridge. When he saw the golden dragon swallowing During the scene with Ekko's horse.
This guy didn't care about Ike's life or death at all. Instead, he stared at the beautiful golden dragon below with a look like he was seeing a rare treasure, and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful.
This is definitely the only golden dragon in the world. , a living golden dragon. Only the great nature can create such a beautiful and elegant creature."
After saying this, he looked back at Yennefer and Geralt with a firm and faith-filled eyes, Dandelion and the other three said firmly:
"Listen, listen carefully. There is a golden dragon standing in front of us. It may be the only one left from your cruel and foolish actions. The legend should not be killed. I don't allow you to touch this one. Dragon. Do you understand? Give up your thoughts, pack your bags and go home." "
This golden dragon, Master Dorrega Lei, will definitely protect it."
Yennefer did not want to care about this madman, although her original goal was That green dragon now has another golden dragon that shouldn't appear, but for the sorceress who is dedicated to restoring her fertility, she doesn't care whether she kills one dragon or two.
At this moment, a voice like a bronze horn was transmitted directly into the brains of the four people on the hillside.
"Gentlemen and ladies opposite, Knight Ike is a respectable opponent." "
If any of you has the ability to heal him, please come down and help him."
"Don't worry, I am a dragon who values honor . , will not attack you suddenly."
Upon hearing this voice, everyone on the hillside, including Yennefer, involuntarily looked at the golden dragon below.
Borch nodded to them gracefully, then waved his wings and flew directly away from the place where the battle took place, retreating to a small hill a few hundred meters away.
