"he?"

Rand was taken aback.

But in the next second, almost instantly, he subconsciously remembered those ferocious beast-like eyes, those eyes protruding from under the visor of the knight's helmet... Those eyes, until now, still make him feel A feeling of dread, shuddering.

"That guy's strength is probably around the level of a one-star warrior, but it's strange, but he doesn't have the slightest fighting spirit. It seems that he is born with incredible divine power..."

Lang De recalled with lingering fear, and said slowly: "Besides, he gives me the feeling that he is like a ferocious beast that is growing, crazy and bloodthirsty, as if he was born to fight."

"Beast?"

The silver-masked man put down the jade cup in his hand, and his eyes finally fell on Ron De. He chuckled and said, "It's very vivid, this is a very interesting metaphor... Ron De, you said that if I catch this 'beast' , wouldn’t it be more interesting to send it to the Imperial Colosseum?”

"Send it to the Colosseum? The master is wise..."

Rand flattered him a little: "If such a crazy guy is sent to the Imperial Colosseum, he will definitely become the best beast fighter, and there will definitely be countless buyers rushing to buy this guy! "

The Imperial Colosseum on the continent of Azeroth is a place where the upper class nobles of the major empires flock to.

In the Colosseum, bloody shows are staged almost every day. Some slaves who are born with supernatural power or specially trained killing talents are forced to fight to the death with all kinds of weird and ferocious beasts in the Colosseum. In order to win the pleasure of the nobles.

This kind of bloody fighting has a long history in Azeroth. At first, it was just a sacrificial ceremony to worship the god of war. Later, it evolved into a way for the nobles to pursue excitement. As more and more nobles devoted themselves enthusiastically, the Colosseum was formed. An unbelievably huge industrial chain, in which countless imperial powers participated, even led to the development of the gambling industry in Azeroth. Many people became rich as a result of this, and of course, many people died because of their families.

However, it is worth mentioning that there are also very strict requirements for the selection of beast fighters. Only slaves or poor people without the title of warrior are allowed to participate. Warriors and magicians who have mastered fighting spirit are absolutely not allowed to appear in the Colosseum, because Ai Ze Rath's Warriors Alliance and Magicians Guild believed that if fighting spirit warriors and magicians were thrown into the Colosseum, it would be an insult to the honor of the entire warrior and magician class.

Of course, it wasn't like that at first.

In the past, the nobles in some super empire forces did not abide by this rule. At one time, a large number of warriors and magicians were forced to bleed and fight in the Colosseum. Such behavior angered the peak powerhouses of the Azeroth continent. More than five hundred years ago, under the call of the Japanese Venerable Beckenbauer and the Great Sun Mage Bailey, countless top powerhouses in the Azeroth Continent joined forces. After rising up and promulgating the "Declaration of Samurai Honor" and obliterating 241 empires and more than 10,000 Colosseums that violated this declaration in one fell swoop, no country or individual dared to take the risk of offending the peak powerhouse and destroy the samurai and the magician into the Colosseum.

Under such a background, an excellent beast fighter has become very rare. In the eyes of the silver-masked man, a "barbaric bull" like Fei who has the strength of a first-level warrior but does not have fighting spirit is obviously a piece of gold. Rare treasures, if handled properly, can definitely bring huge profits to themselves. Even if they get in touch with the noble forces of a higher level of empire, it is not impossible.

"[Number One], after dawn, take [Sixteen], [Seventeen], and [Eighteen] to the city of Chambord to persuade them to surrender, and tell them that idiot king, as long as he is willing to open the city and surrender, the royal family and officials can avoid death , the civilians in the city can also be saved from death, and only serve as slaves... Otherwise, the day the city is destroyed, the whole city will be bloodbathed and slaughtered for three days!"

The silver-masked man had an indifferent face and a serious tone.

Before he finished speaking, he saw a piercing white cold air coming out of his hand, instantly freezing the jade cup and wine syrup into crystal clear ice sculptures of kindness.

"Yes, this subordinate understands!"

Standing in the first row on the right, the black knight code-named [1] stepped forward and answered with a bow.

"Well, remember, in front of everyone in Chambord City, I must convey my order to their stupid king."

The silver-masked man threw the cup in his hand aside, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and specially reminded him.

"Obey!"

[1] took [16], [17], and [18] and bowed to accept orders, turned around and left the tent.

"[Two], [Three], [Four], [Five], [Six], the five of you asked the soldiers under your banner to prepare secretly. As soon as the city of Chambord opened and surrendered, you would immediately lead your troops to enter, except for the one called Apart from Angela's woman and that 'beast', no one will be left alive."

The silver-masked men continued to issue military orders.

His second military order was completely opposite to the previous order to persuade him to surrender.

Five black knights on both sides stood up and bowed to accept the order. The shock in the eyes of several people could not be concealed. Just now the silver-masked man ordered 'Yi' to lead people to persuade him to surrender, promised Chambord City's way out, and made another decision in an instant. Such a cold decision is clearly deceiving the other party.

"Time is running out. According to our plan, Chambord City must be conquered as soon as possible. I am worried that the Zenit Empire will find out if the siege lasts for a long time, so we can only do this..."

As if feeling the doubts of his subordinates, the silver-faced man, who has always been arbitrary, explained a few words patiently. After that, he said bullishly to the three-star swordsman Langde: "Langde, in tomorrow's battle, it will be achieved. The promise you made to me just now is that you will chop off the head of the three-star swordsman in Chambord City for me and present it in front of the horse!"

"As you wish, my master!"

Rand was full of confidence in this order.

"As for the others, follow me and stand by... Alright, let's all get ready, and start to act when the sun rises tomorrow!"

The silver-masked man gave an order, and the black knight and Rand bowed to salute, preparing to leave the tent to prepare...

But, at this moment—"Wait!"

The mysterious cloaked man, who had been silent all this time, suddenly and unexpectedly stopped him.

The magician hid his face under a deep cloak, and nodded vaguely to the silver-masked man as a salute. His voice was hoarse, like a blunt knife being slowly ground on a stone, extremely sharp and unpleasant : "Your Highness, I suddenly felt that there seems to be a powerful magician in Chambord City, and your plan may be disturbed."

"Magician?"

The silver-masked man's face changed suddenly. The existence of Master Mo can often change the battle structure in an inadvertent moment. He tried to ask: "Teacher, can you feel the strength of this magician?"

"That magician is hiding very deeply, as if he can hide from something. I just realized it just now... Well, it's probably around three stars!"

"Samsung?"

The silver-masked man looked slightly relaxed: "If it's a three-star magician, the threat isn't too great. However, I still hope that the teacher can take action at the right time to help the students solve this threat!"

"kindness."

The mysterious cloaked man nodded: "I can shoot, but even a three-star magician can already cause a lot of damage. When the time comes, keep your army far away to avoid accidental injury."

Hearing that the mysterious cloaked man agreed to his request, the silver-masked man relaxed, and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, teacher, as long as you don't damage the main wall of Chambord City, nothing else matters. You can just do it, teacher." .”

The mysterious cloaked man nodded, his whole body shrouded in cold air, and he stopped talking...

A cold wind blows, piercing.

Fei shivered, opened his eyes in a daze, and was startled.

"Damn it, I'm on night duty... ahem, I actually fell asleep? The enemy didn't take the opportunity to touch it?"

Just as he was thinking, a faint fragrance came into his nose suddenly.

Fei was taken aback, turned his head, and was surprised to find that Angela, who was as beautiful as a chrysanthemum, was sitting next to him, leaning against a cold stone wall, and fell asleep quietly.

The girl seemed to feel the cold in her sleep.

She curled up her delicate body tightly with her arms around her knees, the crystal-clear dew wetted her fine, ink-like hair, her long eyelashes were soft and delicate, and the corners of her delicate mouth were slightly upturned, as if she had done something Meimeng, with a fair and delicate face, under the starlight in the sky, gives people the astonishment of a fairy among flowers.

Fei turned his body slightly.

Only at this moment did he realize that he had been covered with a thick velvet blanket without knowing when.

Apparently Angela brought him to see him in the middle of the night and put it on while he was asleep.

Feeling the bursts of heat from the blanket with his heart, Fei felt an unprecedented warmth in his heart. For some reason, looking at this kind and beautiful girl in front of him, he seemed to see his pure and beautiful first love. Faintly, Pure, warm... everything is so beautiful, it makes people obsessed and sad.

He stood up gently, and put the blanket over Angela's body.

This silly girl ran to the top of the city tower to deliver blankets, but she herself was wearing such thin clothes.

At that moment, Fei couldn't help feeling distressed.

But seeing Angela sleeping soundly, Fei couldn't bear to disturb her.

He stared at Angela's delicate face quietly for a while, couldn't help drawing a slight arc at the corner of his mouth, covered the blanket, then turned and left lightly.

After leaving the enemy building with only four stone walls, the surrounding area was very quiet. Fei looked around and saw that there were still soldiers patrolling in the distance. , but was taken aback—because the blond-haired little Lori Gemma was also on the city wall.

The little girl leaned tightly against the stone wall of the enemy building, guarding the collapsed doorway like a guard, maybe because she was too sleepy, she just stood there and fell asleep, tilting her head, Chenfeng With the moisture from the river below the city, her golden hair was blown messily, and the sleeves of her clothes fluttered up and down in the wind.
