That fat old guy with a wretched appearance? The strongest paladin in the history of Roland continent

Uh... Roddy really can't imagine what it would be like to stuff Tian Lie's fat body into a pair of Paladin armor...

Although there are many people with the same fate in this world, the one who can defeat two holy knights is probably no one but Tian Lie...

Seeing the envoy, His Excellency the Earl, coughing violently and with a strange expression on his face, neither the Crown Prince nor the Right Minister could understand why Roddy had such a strange reaction.

Roddy noticed the strange looks between the two men and cleared his throat. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's nothing. I just heard about the legendary deeds of this master, and I was a little amazed and excited." He couldn't help but look at it carefully again. The sword in the crown prince's hand, thinking that the fat man actually had such a legendary story back then, it seems that I need to ask him properly this time when I go back.

The Crown Prince gently stroked the sword with his fingers, narrowed his eyes, but suddenly a sharp look appeared in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, the Count originally came from the 'Thunder God's Whip'. I heard that your country's 'Thunder God's Whip' 'There is a powerful Wolf Fang Army, which is unparalleled in elites. The weapons in the hands of the soldiers are all strange-shaped scimitars. Those scimitars are carefully crafted by imperial craftsmen and are sharper than ordinary swords. Is that right? ?”

Rody nodded and said: "The Wolf Fang Army is the cavalry regiment directly under Duke Tulip. Naturally, it needs to be more particular about its equipment."

The crown prince's eyes fell on Rody's waist and he smiled and said: "Your Excellency, the scimitar on your waist must be from the 'Thunder God's Whip', right? I think the shape is very unique."

Rody smiled slightly, thought for a while, and just nodded without saying anything.

The expression on the crown prince's face gradually showed his true intention: "The scimitar of your country's Langya Army is famous all over the world. It is said that it is better than the scimitar of the northwest grassland! I think that although the scimitar originated from the Big Moon Kingdom, the scimitar of the Big Moon Kingdom is Located in the northwest grassland, how can the level of forging be as advanced as that of the empire? As an Earl, the scimitar you are wearing must not be ordinary! I wonder if I can take it out for a look? "

Rody frowned. His scimitar was not actually a weapon of the Wolf Fang Army, but a Dragon Curse Scimitar. He really didn’t want to cause trouble, but since the Crown Prince proposed it, Rody just smiled casually and took it off. He handed over the scimitar under his waist and said: "Your Highness, please take a look. It's just that my scimitar is just an ordinary thing. I dare not compare it with the sword of His Highness the Crown Prince."

Yawen finally pulled out the scimitar and looked at it for a few times, with an expression of surprise on his face. Rody's scimitar has a unique shape, and the dragon soul of an ice and snow dragon was refined on it a few days ago. When it is unsheathed, it looks even more glorious and chilly!

The crown prince asked curiously: "Why are the words on this knife so strange?" He couldn't help but rub it gently with his hand, and the expression on his face was obviously very fond of it.

When Rody saw his expression, he immediately became wary. This crown prince seems to have a hobby of collecting strange weapons. If he asks for it or offers to buy it, it will be difficult to handle. So Rody said: "This scimitar was given by His Majesty the Emperor, and I can't understand the writing on it."

Sure enough, Rody's words "Given by His Majesty" immediately made Yawen's face look a little depressed. Although he liked it very much, he also knew that things given by the emperor could not be given away and sold casually.

He just ordered someone to take out such a treasured sword, but he actually had bad thoughts in his heart! Originally, they wanted to arouse the opponent's competitive spirit, and the two sides competed with weapons. As long as the count's weapon was cut off, it would be considered a loss of face for the opponent, and the bad temper in his heart would be relieved a little bit.

Just at first glance, the opponent's scimitar was not ordinary, and the crown prince hesitated. The scimitar looked very sharp. If he proposed a competition and injured his own sword, it would be embarrassing. Okay, it's really not easy to get this sword. I'm afraid I will be the one who feels bad for it by then.

Yawen's face changed several times instantly. Suddenly, I thought that the opponent's scimitar was "given by His Majesty the Emperor", and my heart skipped a beat!

Give it a try!

Since it is a treasure given by the emperor, if the opponent's scimitar can be cut off here, then the count will be in a lot of trouble! Damaging the treasure given by the emperor is probably not a small crime!

Thinking of this, Yawen secretly gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, it seems that your scimitar is also extraordinary. How about we give it a try? It's rare to see two magic weapons. Why don't we take a look at them? Which weapon is more powerful, your scimitar or my sword?"

How can you be a Roddy like this? Naturally, he refused in every possible way, and pretended to be humble and said: "His Highness's sword is a divine product, how can this scimitar of mine compare? Let's forget it!"

When Yawen saw that the opponent was shrinking, he insisted on competing, but Rody just shook his head and refused.

The right minister next to him did not speak at this moment, and deliberately took two steps away. He just looked at the two of them and smiled without saying a word. The smile on Seth's face was quite meaningful, and he suddenly said: "Your Highness, I have an idea, I wonder if I can tell it?"

Yawen laughed and said immediately: "Miss Nicole's idea must be a good one, please tell me!" After a pause, he seemed to feel that this was not flattering enough, and added: "Please tell me, I will definitely obey Miss. the meaning of!"

Rody was stunned for a moment, and then glared at Seth. He really didn't know what tricks this guy was suddenly going to come up with.

Seth didn't look at Rody at all. He smiled softly and said, "Count Rody is a fifth-level warrior in our country. He is a warrior under Duke Tulip. I see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the naval commander of the Kingdom of Roland, and his subordinates also There must be powerful warriors... Well, what's the point of simply testing weapons? I think it's better for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to select a warrior and compete with Count Rody to see who is stronger in the sword competition? Naturally, it’s clear at a glance!”

As soon as he said this, Rody's first reaction was to strangle this guy who was afraid of chaos on the spot! !

He wanted to conceal his own strength, not to mention that he came here today just to find out the other party's true and false status, but this action revealed his own strength!

Seth still didn't look at Roddy's face, deliberately smiled slightly, looked at the crown prince and whispered: "I wonder what your highness thinks of my proposal?"

The crown prince was glanced at by "Miss Nicole" and felt dizzy. A surge of blood surged in his heart and he said loudly: "Okay! What a great idea!"

Rody frowned and could only look at the Prime Minister, hoping that the Prime Minister could stop him. However, the right minister remained silent and stood there with a smile, looking at Rody with a rather meaningful look.

Rody was aware that this right prime minister had a weird stance, and he probably wanted to take this opportunity to weigh himself!

Thinking of this, Rody shook his head and said: "Your Highness, I came to your country this time for peace talks. I'm afraid it wouldn't be good to compete like this!"

"We are just discussing in private, and it has nothing to do with the Earl's mission! I have long heard about the martial arts in your country, and discussions between warriors are common. Could it be that... The Earl is worried... Haha, don't worry, my subordinates Every move is measured.”

Rody smiled helplessly.

Of course he is not afraid of fighting. Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a few powerful guys, he can't be more powerful than the Holy Knights of the temple, right? It's just such a private competition. If the crown prince's men are injured, it will naturally be bad. How can he say that he is here for peace talks this time. And the right prime minister next to him is probably not simple, his eyes seem to be looking through him.

If you say no fight - but this proposal was made by "Miss Nicole" on your side! I can't openly oppose the words of "the eldest lady of the Tulip family" in person, right

The evasion was ineffective, and everyone moved outside the palace. When the diplomatic envoys from other kingdoms heard about this, the smart ones felt a little weird, fearing that the crown prince who strongly opposed the peace talks would come up with something else. People also came out to watch.

The right minister didn't speak from the beginning to the end, just stood aside and watched with cold eyes. Only when the crown prince proposed to appear in person, he cautiously said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been reprimanded by His Majesty several times in the palace today. I think it’s better not to play.”

After hearing this, Yawen hesitated for a moment and gave up the idea of playing in person. After all, if he fights with the opponent in person, His Majesty will definitely be angry no matter what. He has already made His Majesty unhappy today, so it would be better for him to restrain himself a little. Moreover, he knew his own weight, so he was not necessarily sure that he could win against a fifth-level warrior. It would be even more ugly if he lost.

The one who came on stage was the strong man holding the sword just now, his name was "Leihou"! According to Yawen's introduction, he was a commander of the Sauron Kingdom's navy. Both Yawen and Yawen were originally from the Royal Knights. Yawen spoke highly of this guy, so he must have some ability.

Rody and Leihou were already standing opposite each other. Leihou was holding the crown prince's sword in his hand. His eyes were like lightning, staring at Rody closely, as if he was ready to look for an opportunity to take action.

Rody pretended to be nervous on the surface, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.

This crown prince is a militant, so naturally he doesn't know his own strength. But the right minister knew that he had killed three paladins by himself. Even though he didn't believe such exaggerated news, he shouldn't be naive enough to think that he was really an idiot, right? Since he has acquiesced in this competition, what does it mean

Regardless of the outcome, the crown prince will definitely be reprimanded by the king—that is to say, the crown prince is probably not on his side!

Which side does this old guy represent

Or maybe, after hearing the news about him, he had doubts about his own strength and wanted to take this opportunity to see clearly his true self

Yawen deliberately stood next to Seth, deliberately doubly flattering in his words, and told Seth with a hint of bragging that this Leihou was the number one master of the Royal Knights back then, and was even selected as a Holy Knight. group! Just because he was loyal to himself, he refused the invitation of the Holy Knights and stayed with him and followed him into the navy.

In his words, Seth also asked Seth to rest assured that Leihou always acted in a measured manner and would never hurt the earl.

Seth felt uninterested and just sighed, looking at the crown prince with a bit of pity.

Rody was running other thoughts in his mind when he suddenly heard Leihou let out a low shout, raised his sword with both hands, took a few steps forward, and then slashed down with his sword on the head!

Rody had no choice but to hold the scimitar with both hands and raise it to block it.

"Kang!" There was a sound, and the swords clashed. Rody deliberately stepped back a few steps, and in the last step he deliberately used hard force to step on the stone slab on the ground. He exhaled and said loudly: "Okay! "

Leihou's attack was blocked, his feet were faster, he caught up with him in a few steps and launched a series of violent attacks! His strength is indeed extraordinary. According to Rody's estimation, he has reached the level of a great knight! After these seven or eight consecutive sword blows, if it were a real fifth-level warrior, he would have been in a terrible state.

Seeing Ding Ding Dong, the two of them got into a fight on the spot. Rody deliberately concealed his own strength. He didn't use any fighting spirit at all. He purely defended passively. He blocked the opponent's attacks with the scimitar in his hand.

The diplomatic envoys from various kingdoms nearby were also knowledgeable. Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's subordinates were really powerful, this round of onslaught made people secretly frightened. They couldn't help but cheer in a low voice. It was just because of Rody's identity. , I just didn’t dare to cheer loudly.

Seth yawned again and again as he saw this. Although the Thunder Roar was quite powerful and this attack was quite impressive, it was far from the earth-shattering attack by the wind dragon warrior Orm that day...

Roddy pretended to be involved, and it looked like the two of them were in a ping-pong-pong ball. But from the beginning to now, he was just defensive and didn't fight back with a single move. When the calculation in his mind was almost done, he deliberately made a move on the opponent's side. After the sword slashed, he blocked it, took advantage of the situation, took a few steps away, and said with a smile: "Stop!"

Lei Hou was already breathing a little, and he said in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"

Roddy said loudly: "That's it! I admire your strength very much. This is the end of this discussion. I think it's almost as good as here." He held the scimitar in his backhand and prepared to walk to the sidelines. .

That Leihou's eyes flashed, but he rushed forward and shouted: "As a warrior, how can you admit defeat so easily!!"

Rody frowned, lightly dodged the opponent's sword, and said with a frown: "We are just competing, do we still need to distinguish between life and death?"

Lei Hou held the sword with both hands and slashed out with the sword. When the two of them got closer, he whispered: "I can see that you are hiding your strength!"

Rody's eyes lit up, he narrowed his eyes and whispered, "What do you want?"

"Show your true ability and make me convinced that I have lost, and I will let you go!"

While the two were talking, someone gradually began to cheer loudly next to them.

It turns out that during the conversation between the two of them, Lei Hou had already revealed his real secret skill. In the time it took the two of them to talk for four sentences, Lei Hou had already struck out eleven swords like lightning in an instant! Every sword strike carries a faint strong wind, and a trace of fighting spirit bursts out from the sword's edge!

It's just that he attacks faster, but Roddy hides even faster! Rody still held the scimitar upside down in his hand. Although Lei Hou's eleven swords were fierce, they could not touch even a piece of Rody's clothes! His figure looked like a ghost in the eyes of everyone! Like a fallen leaf, it is always fluttering in the shadow of the thundering and violent sword. No matter how strong the wind continues, it is still unable to get rid of the leaf!

Seeing the other party struggling with each other, Rody gradually became angry. Since his debut, when has he ever been at a disadvantage in a martial arts competition? Although he tried his best to hide his strength at this moment, the arrogance in his heart was gradually aroused. Suddenly, the opponent's sword came down on his head. A stern look flashed in Rody's eyes, and he raised the knife with his backhand. He only heard a "clang" sound, and the swords hit each other. The thunder roar let out a muffled grunt, and he stumbled back in an instant. After walking seven or eight steps, the hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and his face turned red.

Rody saw a flash of surprise in the eyes of the right minister next to him, and his heart tightened, secretly regretting that he had not been able to control himself just now.

Seeing Leihou take a few breaths, Rody's heart moved, and he remembered how Mr. Qiu confused the divine religion in the imperial capital.

snort! If you want to see my true strength, then I will let you see my "real" strength!

"We really have to decide the winner!" Rody narrowed his eyes.

Lei Hou didn't say anything. The sword burst out with silver fighting energy. He suddenly took a deep breath and slashed out with a sword in the air. A wind blade shot at Rody, but he himself jumped out at the same time, from the left at the same time. Stab it down!

Rody sneered, but stretched out a hand, and lightly touched his left hand in the air, and a dazzling golden light shield immediately appeared in front of him!

The wind blade shot by the Thunder Roar hit the light shield and burst into pieces in an instant. Rody moved faster. Seeing the Thunder Roar Sword coming in front of him, he did not use the knife to block it. He stretched out two fingers and pinched it gently. !

Lei Hou only felt that the blow he had gathered all his strength seemed to be gone in one fell swoop. The sword stabbed in front of the opponent, but he could no longer move forward even half a point!

Rody's two fingers gently and skillfully clamped the tip of the opponent's sword, and shouted in a low voice: "Let go!"

Lei Hou was stubborn by nature, and his face turned purple from holding back. Not only did he refuse to let go, he suddenly made a fist with his other hand and swung it over. Rody looked at the opponent coldly, snorted coldly, and clamped the fingers on the tip of the opponent's sword with force. A twist...

With this force, just as Leihou's fist reached the point, he felt a powerful spinning force coming from the tip of the sword. He could no longer resist it. As the sword rotated, his whole body felt like a top. He spun a few times in the air and then fell heavily to the ground.

It's just that he was a brave man by nature. Even though he was lying on the ground, the hand holding the sword still held on tightly. Rody sighed, loosened his fingers, and was about to step back when Leihou roared and stabbed him with the sword. Come over here!

Rody was really angry now. Suddenly the scimitar in his hand flashed, and then he heard a crisp "ding" sound.

The sword in Leihou's hand was cut into two pieces by Rody. The half of the dagger flew up in the air, flipped a few times in the air, then fell and was stuck on the ground.

It fell right in front of and at the feet of Crown Prince Yawen!

He looked at the thunderous roar on the ground in front of him, and looked at the strange looks from around him, as well as the shock and anger on the crown prince's face, and the thoughtful look in the eyes of the right minister.

Rody didn't care about this anymore. He looked at the half-broken sword in Leihou's hand and couldn't help but think: "Too bad, I cut off the fat man's sword. He won't settle the score with me..."
