Seeing the surprised expressions of the two knights in the temple and His Majesty the Pope, Du Wei held back a smile and said slowly, "What's the matter? Ladies and gentlemen, don't you suspect that I don't have the strength of level nine? "
Pope Paul XVI thought: You definitely have the strength of level nine, otherwise you would not be able to kill an angel—but it should be magical strength! This Duke of Tulip has never heard of him having any martial arts skills.
Prince Chen couldn't help but laugh when he heard Du Wei's bold words that he wanted to win the title of "No. He glanced at Du Wei: "If this is the case, Grand Duke Tulip, then I will not force others. I will find someone else to take on the responsibility of judging...you, you...you can go grab the title of the world's number one warrior! Hahahaha... "
In fact, Du Wei's proposal to participate in the competition was not at all what he had planned in advance, but a sudden idea just now. The root cause, without a doubt, was the sudden request for participation from the temple!
Du Wei is not a fool, he figured out what the gang of magic sticks were up to after a little thought!
This martial arts competition will determine a champion, who will be crowned the title of the number one warrior in the mainland—not to mention the gold content of such a martial arts competition champion, because at least those real top fighters will definitely disdain to participate in this kind of competition. What a tournament! The truly strong will not like to fight with others as a show in full view.
Like Hussein. For example, Rodriguez, such a strong man. Definitely will dismiss this kind of game.
So this way. Participants. I'm afraid most of them are some second-rate characters.
But although the gold content is not enough, if he can take away the title of "the number one warrior in the mainland". And after that, get the position of head of the "Roland's Sword Knights"—this is a very important step in Du Wei's plan! The important joint for revitalizing the Knights Association is here!
The Knights Association needs a banner figure to stand up. Stand up—after all, in this world, most people still believe in heroism.
and. In Du Wei's view, although the Cavaliers Association has declined, there is still a shining gold sign after all! As long as your own planning works well. It is not difficult to revive this ancient organization with a long history and tradition. And that "Knights of the Sword of Roland" is the only knights on the mainland that can rival the Holy Knights in terms of history.
Therefore, no matter from any point of view, Du Wei can't let the people of the temple take away this championship!
What does the temple want to do? It's very simple, this group of magic sticks definitely don't want the royal family to foster a powerful continental organization. After the Continental Knights Association was supported by the royal family. It must be firmly on the side of the royal family - the temple will not be happy that the royal family has another powerful assistant.
Well in this case. The temple suddenly joined. It's an obvious way to disrupt the situation!
Do you want to erect a banner figure through the tournament? good! Then I will send the strong to win this championship first!
Just imagine, if it is a holy knight who takes away the championship, what will be the result
According to the announcement of the game. The champion will become the number one warrior in the mainland, and he will also serve as the head of the "Roland Sword Knights"! This is also the main armed force to defend the Knights Association in the future plan.
A holy knight to serve as the head of this force? What a joke! !
Du Wei would not agree. Prince Chen will not agree! Even people from the Cavaliers Association might not agree!
But even if it is a step back. If the champion is taken away by the holy knight, and the other party deliberately makes a gesture. Using the excuse that he is a member of the temple. Politely reject the post of head of the "Knights of the Sword of Roland".
So what was the result... The result was Du Wei's plan, which turned into a joke in the end!
That's right. Du Wei may be able to let the runner-up be a substitute candidate...but if the champion abstains in a grandiose manner. As a substitute... what glory is there
When people mention his words in the future, they will only remember: Oh. That is the master of the temple gave up. He has the opportunity to sit in this position!
If it becomes such a result. What about "flagstone figures"? Banner shit!
This kind of intentions of the temple can't be said to be vicious, it's simply drastic!
and. Du Wei quickly thought of a very dangerous link: if he didn't intervene, then the temple would definitely have the strength to win this championship! !
In the case that the top powerhouses do not participate. Maybe an eighth-level knight is enough to sweep the conference! And what's more, it is the holy knight who is generally recognized as the most water-free knight level!
The generally accepted fact in the mainland is: under the same level, holy knights are definitely stronger than ordinary mainland knights!
And when it comes to the strong men under their command... Even if the royal family wants to stop it, it seems that the royal family doesn't have any top fighters who can stand on the stage.
There was also a famous gray-clothed swordsman in the palace back then, but it was a pity that he was slaughtered by Rodriguez on the day of the coup.
As for now... Du Wei even suspected that the royal family's court warriors were among the dead. I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to even find an eighth-level master!
And the temple... don't forget, in addition to the holy knights, they also have a mysterious legion of angels! God knows if there are any strong people in it... And, don't forget, there is also an angel who has not shown up now, the guy named Opdis!
From the comparison of the quantity and quality of masters, in the entire continent, I am afraid that only Du Wei's forces can challenge the temple. What? Daxueshan? Do you think that an extremely arrogant person like Bai Hechou would come to openly fight with a bunch of ordinary people to compete for the so-called "No. 1 in the world"
Although several bigwigs are on it
The voice of speaking has not been loud. But these influential figures on the mainland gathered together. It easily attracted the attention of many guests in the hall. Although the music is still playing. There are still people dancing below. But some people with high status have already drifted their eyes here and there from time to time.
Du Wei suddenly announced that he was going to participate in the competition in person, which surprised the people in the temple. The pope took several deep glances at Du Wei. In the end, I could only chuckle twice—but luckily. He finally turned his attention away from the old emperor.
It was the Randall knight who was mocked several times by Du Wei and Prince Charlie today. I feel a little bit upset. He couldn't help but sneered and said, "Du Wei...Your Excellency the Archbishop! Don't forget that you are also a nobleman. Don't you think it's demeaning to participate in this kind of competition as a nobleman... Oh. What His Royal Highness Charlie said just now, It actually makes sense."
Du Wei suddenly became angry!
obviously. Eighty percent of his anger is deliberately pretended. But this time. Du Wei felt that it was necessary for him to lose his temper!
These goddamn bastards. I've been having trouble with Lao Tzu recently! He plotted against me once in the northwest. Now make trouble again! Although the current situation. You can't turn your back on them. but…
Depend on! I don't get angry. Do you really think I'm afraid of you? !
Du Weiteng stood up abruptly. Looking at Commander Randall coldly, Du Wei's voice was cold: "Your Excellency Knight Randall! Excuse me within the church. Is the position of the Commander of the Holy Knights higher than that of the Archbishop of the local diocese?"
Randall froze for a moment: "Of course not..."
"Okay!" Du Wei took a step forward. He raised his chin proudly: "Then let me ask you a question. Can any commoner now tell the Duke of the Empire what to do?!"
Randall was speechless. And the old pope's face was already a little gloomy and ugly.
Du Wei snorted. Continue to coldly say: "Then let me ask you one more question! I am a general of the imperial army, a local lord, a minister in charge of military and political affairs in the Northwest... do I like to do something, what do I want to do... just anyone who has no title or official position Can civilians stand up and blame me?"
Randall's face turned red immediately!
obviously. Du Wei is a typical "bullying"! And it's also clearly showing that they use their status to overwhelm the other party!
Du Wei looked at the Grand Knight Commander of the Holy Knights coldly, and said coldly, "I will warn you for the last time. Your Excellency, Knight Randall! Please remember your identity! What am I Du Wei doing?" Things. Is it your turn to be noisy!"
He looked contemptuous, his eyes almost seemed to be sneering: what are you!
Randall already looked like he was about to go berserk. Pope Paul XVI originally wanted to see how bold Du Wei was. He thought that Du Wei didn't dare to turn his face... But then Du Wei's action shocked the Pope!
Du Wei is taking off his gloves! !
I saw the Grand Duke Tulip quickly took off his right hand glove. Look at that. I'm about to throw the glove on the face of Knight Randall-this is what it means to initiate a duel! Once the duel is initiated, no one can stop it! At that time, even the Pope can't stop it!
On Roland Continent, the right to duel is also an extremely important tradition! As for the two sides in the duel, if anyone backs down—no matter what you want to do, then you will probably bear this shame for the rest of your life!
Moreover, others do not know the depth of Du Wei. The Pope knew it—he was very worried. This guy really had a hot head, and took advantage of the opportunity of a duel to kill the knight commander of one of his holy knights. Then I really can't tell if I knocked out my front teeth.
"Randall!!" Just after Du Wei took off his gloves, the Pope stood up abruptly, and the scepter in his hand slammed on the ground. There was a bang, and then the pope looked solemn and gloomy, staring at his holy knight, took a deep breath, and quickly shouted: "I ask you to apologize to Grand Duke Tulip immediately! Immediately!"
As early as when Du Wei got angry, Randall was so angry that he reached out to touch the sword on his waist-this was a habitual action, but he missed it. It turned out that before entering the hall. According to the regulations in the palace, their swords have been temporarily taken away.
Heed the Pope's order. Randall had a hundred grievances and dissatisfaction in his heart. But after all, he didn't dare to violate the majesty of the Pope, and the Pope had a solemn expression on his face. It is also obviously absolutely inviolable.
The knight took a deep breath, his face was blue and purple, and finally lowered his head deeply, gritted his teeth and said in a muffled voice: "Yes... Grand Duke Tulip, I was rude!"
When he spoke, his teeth were clenched, and it was obvious that he was extremely aggrieved.
"Hmph." Du Wei almost made the four words "bullying" to the extreme, and gave this guy a cold look: "Okay... Randall Knight! You will definitely participate in this competition! I I really hope that the two of us will play together!"
The scene was so tense that no matter how thick-skinned the pope was, he was too embarrassed to continue to sit down. He simply turned around and nodded to the old emperor and Prince Chen, smiling a little unnaturally: "If this is the case, then I will take my leave first. Your Majesty the Emperor, and... my child! I am very glad that you have agreed to my request. I think we can have a good talk about this contest at a suitable time. Of course ..." The pope glanced at Du Wei: "To show fairness, since Grand Duke Tulip is a contestant, he can no longer participate in the formulation of the rules of the contest, right?"
"Of course." Du Wei smiled.
The Pope nodded, said "very good" several times, then paused the staff in his hand, took his leave slowly and left.
