Chapter 81 Finals
As the day of the finals approaches day by day, the flow of people in the Phoenix King's Court is also increasing. There are countless people who come to remonstrate with the Phoenix King. The problem of Caledo must be solved, no matter what the reason is. Way.
Itain's army has already formed a confrontation with Caledor in the Lothern Strait. There are tens of thousands of regular troops plus a dozen dragons. This number can only be guaranteed by fighting on the city wall without being defeated immediately.
But if Imric directly chooses to block the strait with dragons and Amarna and forcibly besiege the city for several years, Lothern's economy will decline rapidly, and the Phoenix Court will not be worthy of its name.
The Phoenix King sat on the chair with the flaming phoenix mark, thinking gloomily. Ever since Elion chose Chen Bing to be near the Eagle Gate a few days ago, although it has alleviated a lot of pressure on Lothern, this problem has still not been solved. , the people he sent to the Dragon Prince Manor to resolve the matter privately had no effect at all. The perimeter was garrisoned by hundreds of soldiers, as well as two giant dragons.
Imric has stated that he will not speak to anyone until Fenubar convenes a formal meeting to explain the matter clearly, and he does not seem to care at all about the political implications of doing so.
The closing ceremony of the celebration will be held on the second day after the tourney, which means that Fenuba only has one day to think carefully about this matter, whether to take the initiative to admit his mistake, or to follow the ideas of the Etain Noble Council and put Im Rick was placed under house arrest, using the last descendant of the Dragon Tamer family as a hostage to make Caledor obey the Phoenix King.
Alarielle expressed that she would support the first approach, and other kingdoms also held this attitude when they came to remonstrate. Only the Itaien people thought that this would damage the majesty of the Phoenix Court, but they never thought about it. What qualifications does Etain have to fight Caledor? Tyrion, the only one with potential, already has a good prestige.
But as for Caledor, Randy, Agthel, Edtelis and other high-level dragon princes all have the ability to lead. Lothern's navy is meaningless in front of Amarna. Triton faces the dragon prince's The charge could barely keep the position from being washed away. When the Sky-Severing Airship and Phoenix faced the dragon, they could only fall in the sky. The militia troops would only be massacred when facing the regular army.
And the threat from the north cannot be ignored. Imrik can fight only for the so-called honor, but as the Phoenix King, Fenubar must care about the survival of the race.
Itai En's first Phoenix King said how glorious he was, but in fact few people would obey him. It was the first time that he felt so powerless.
Looking at Tyrion's appointment letter as the general of the Lothern garrison, he said to himself, "Grow up quickly, I need you, Tyrion."
.........
The last game, a The hunter from Charis has entered the finals. He has been appointed by Cohill to join the White Lion Guards. This time his ability will be tested. As long as he wins, his future will be extremely brilliant. Although everyone is not optimistic about it, He is expected to beat Davian from Caledor.
People in red and white entered from both ends of the playing field, and there were many people in white costumes in the stands who were shouting for the warrior who killed three white lions of Charis with his own hands.
On the contrary, Davian's seat representing Caledor was empty. The prince had issued an edict and the dragon court stopped all affairs in Lothern. He continued the game based on his personal wishes.
The warrior holding a giant ax and wearing white lion fur on his shoulders walked up to Davian and said in a solemn tone, "In the name of Kuros, I will defeat you, Davian." Unfortunately, the
Dragon Prince did not want to fight with him. Communicate more, just glance at him, and then turn around, his arrogance undisguised.
The warrior Charis didn't care about Davian's attitude. The prey would lose its life in the hunter's attack because he underestimated the enemy. Arrogance meant weakness.
It was the familiar horn sound again, but Davian felt it was so harsh. The dragon prince would launch a devastating charge as the dragon lord blew the dragon horn. But now, it was a rigged game, a game without honor. A game, a game that would be humiliating even if you win!
Warrior Charis had already begun to charge when the horn sounded. He had observed Davian's battle. As long as someone started to fight with him, Davian's strength and speed would become faster and faster, even to the point where it was difficult to see the attack clearly. The extent of the trajectory.
Davian didn't seem to react yet. He just pulled out his sword with both hands, raised his head, and roared at the main stage behind the Charis warriors. An ancient behemoth seemed to wake up from its slumber, and a roar came from his mouth, All the shouts were drowned out, and those with weak minds even thought that there was a giant dragon standing in the field.
The Charis warrior in front of Davian could experience this feeling most personally. He discovered that he had changed from a hunter to a prey, and the Dragon Prince in front of him was no longer the same as before. Not arrogant, but calm, that is the look of a hunter when he sees that he is bound to get his prey.
"Kunos is protecting me." The Charis warrior who was charging roared. The powerful enemy did not dissipate his fighting spirit. The Charis people fought with various powerful beasts every day. Once they retreated, they would only There will be a pile of bones left.
Davian began the attack. He did not choose the long halberd that the Dragon Prince usually used in foot combat, but chose two long swords. This dual-wielding method requires higher skills from the user. The two began to fight first. The warrior Charis raised his giant ax above his head. This desperate fighting style left the door wide open, but as long as it was effective, it would definitely cut Davian in front of him in half.
In his disbelieving gaze, Davian crossed his swords and only shook his shoulders for a moment when resisting the giant axe, and then successfully defended.
"Invincible." This was the first thought in the mind of warrior Charis. He had never seen a person who relied on a long sword to resist the heavy blows of a giant axe. Could this person's body be a monster?
The Dragon Prince didn't give him a chance. As soon as he drew out his swords, he started to attack. The elves' dexterity and skills were not displayed at all on Davian. He was like a Norscan barbarian. His swords always hit the head and other fatal parts. hit.
At the beginning, the Charis warriors could still dodge with their beast-like instincts brought about by years of hunting.
But soon the most worrying part came. Davian's strength and speed increased with the continuous fighting, and the giant ax, as a power weapon, was not suitable for duels because it was difficult for the user to have both offense and defense. You can conquer the world by mastering only three moves, which is slash, slash, slash.
But facing a dragon prince who fights more fiercely than wild beasts, this three-axe is useless. His momentum, strength, speed, and skills are inferior to others. Then there is only one final outcome. He can only forcefully use the giant to fight. He used the ax to resist the attack. Every time Davian's attack hit the axe, he felt a burst of pain. Could this guy really be a humanoid dragon?
As the sword in Davian's right hand slammed into the giant axe, the Charis warrior failed to hold it firmly, causing a gap between the weapon and his limbs, which also declared his failure.
Putting the long sword on the neck of the Charis warrior, Davian's victory was a matter of course.
"Does Caledor need people from other kingdoms?" The Charis warrior with the sword held on his neck was not discouraged. Instead, he suddenly said something. He was already the top warrior in Charis, but he was still defeated. In the hands of Davian.
Before the game, Cohill had promised that he would join the White Lion Guard regardless of victory or defeat. However, as a sailor, Finuba is not like the Phoenix King, a warrior who likes to charge into battle. In addition to training, the White Lion Guard only does Catch some thieves and spies.
After this battle, he realized that he was not strong enough, and if he asked which kingdom in Ulthuan was the strongest, there was only one answer.
"You need to ask the prince, I have no right to answer." Putting the sword into the sheath, Davian did not refuse immediately. This Charisman was not bad. He did not use any tricks in the battle. He fought head-on with him. Compared with Those cowards who could only dodge before are much better.
The band on the sidelines began to play a movement, "March of the Champions" from Azul. The tone was light and lively, praising every champion's skill and soul for being as flexible and noble as this music.
Listening to this tone, Davian missed the days of Caledor a little, the never-ending howling of the wind, the melancholy notes around the campfire, the crisp echo of the Vaal priests striking the anvils, what happened in Lothern this time Too many things.
Bruni's battle with the Silver Helmet Knight, Caledor's conflict with the Phoenix King's Court, Elion's conflict, becoming Alfonso's sect, and winning this game. Just as his thoughts were wandering, Cohir had already led People come to the field.
The White Lion Guards were guarding the Phoenix King.
Fenuba has been paying attention to Davian for a long time. From his first game, he seems to be like a raging sun dragon that is always in a state of rage. Except for the battle with Masno that lasted a long time, at other times It's solved quickly.
As the Phoenix King, he actively cultivates various low-level talents. Not only does he want to stabilize his throne, but he also cannot bear to see many good talents being buried. His years of traveling experience lets him know that many people are dismissed because of this lack of attention. The edges and corners fade away and become extremely ordinary.
But the Davian in front of him will definitely not be tied to the chariot of the Phoenix Court. He has become a personal guard of the dragon lord before he was three hundred years old, and even became a disciple of Alfonso, the God of Hoss. The combination of a high-level dragon prince and a dragon mage, it is hard to imagine how high the achievements will be.
Seeing that Davian was leaving without even wanting to take the prize, Fenuba came to him and whispered, "After the celebration, let your prince come to the Phoenix Court and I will give him a satisfactory explanation."
