The cold light suddenly disappeared in mid-air, and the black-robed figure floated four or five meters away.
"Let go of Sylvia immediately!" The slightly hoarse voice contained anxiety and anger.
Lorist took some time off and smiled softly: "I think the two knights, Henned and Tabek, should be free now, right?"
Without hesitation, the black-robed figure turned his head and ordered to the guards who were at a loss in a daze facing the situation, "You guys, go and bring those two golden knights out and tell them they can leave .”
"Yes, Master..." The guards woke up and looked at Princess Sylvia who was held hostage by Lorist unwillingly, agreed and turned and ran into the Grand Duke's mansion.
Lorist withdrew his sword, and with a flick of his body, he had let go of Princess Sylvia and stepped back about three meters.
Princess Sylvia was suddenly free, she was taken aback for a moment, and turned to look at Lorist strangely...
As soon as the black-robed figure saw Lorist let go of Princess Sylvia, he hurriedly floated down to the princess's side, but Lorist straightened back more than four meters, keeping a distance of nearly seven meters from the black-robed figure. .
"Your sense is really sharp, but if you let go of the princess like this, aren't you afraid that I will renege on my promise and get fat?" The tone of the black-robed figure was full of admiration.
Lorist shrugged indifferently: "I can't help it, senior is a great swordsman, the pressure on me is too great. Only by keeping such a distance can I be sure to continue in the situation of senior's sudden cold arrow. If senior thinks that being a great swordsman means nothing, then I have no choice but to admit that I am unlucky."
"Very good..." The black-robed figure hugged Princess Sylvia in his arms: "I can let those two golden knights go, but you can't leave."
"It doesn't matter." Lorist replied, "I also want to try my senior's swordsmanship..."
Princess Sylvia had already recovered, and she showed her face from the embrace of the black-robed figure: "Well, Earl Norton, what's your name?"
This is a bit impolite, but Lorist still replied: "Norton Lorist. Your Royal Highness, my name is Norton Lorist."
Princess Sylvia nodded with a straight face: "Aside from our noble status, as a swordsman, Lorist, I will definitely wash away the shame of being captured just now, and I will definitely defeat you..."
Lorist laughed dumbfounded, what a little girl's temper, she's so self-willed and unwilling to admit defeat at such an adult.
"Your Highness, you are a golden swordsman, is it necessary to compete with me on the black iron rank?" Lorist asked with a smile.
"I don't believe you are the Black Iron Step, you must have concealed your true strength..." Princess Sylvia pouted.
"In fact, when I dealt with your guards and captured you, I used all my skills, and I didn't use my fighting spirit yet," Lorist said.
Princess Sylvia thought about it carefully, and was stunned, because Lorist was right, he had never used battle qi.
"Hehe..." The black-robed figure laughed: "Sylvia, he is misleading you, he did not use battle qi, but he used another kind of power that we don't know yet, this power is more hidden than battle qi , is more explosive, it is hidden in his body, so his reaction and action are faster and stronger than yours, and his senses are more sensitive. Because of this, he found me hiding next to you. Now you are not his Opponent, I will try his details later."
Lorist sweats profusely, the great swordsman is indeed a great swordsman, so quickly he discovered the abnormality from his fight with the guards and Princess Sylvia, and even noticed the internal force running in his body. Amazing.
At this time, Knight Henned and Knight Tabek had come out of the Grand Duke's mansion. Henned was overjoyed to see Lorist coming, but he soon found the figure in black robe and Princess Sylvia on the opposite side. , his face suddenly became serious.
"Are you sure?" Knight Henned asked.
"It's hard to say, 50-50 at most. You go first, then I don't have anything to worry about, and I can let it go." Lorist said in a low voice.
"How about we hold the line for you?"
"No, you guys go away. The other party is a woman, and women are the easiest to go back on their word. Even if you leave, I will have a way to escape. If you don't, I won't even be able to leave. This trip will be in vain..." Luo Rist said quickly and in a low voice.
"Okay, let's go first, you be careful..." Knight Henned nodded, no longer hesitated to lead Tabek Knight out of the gate and left.
"Hmph, women will go back on their word? It seems that you are very prejudiced against us women, what kind of Earl, to be honest, I want to go back on it now, but since you are so confident, I decided to catch you first and then talk... "
Well, even though the conversation between Lorist and Knight Henned was very low, it still couldn't be hidden from the ears of the black-robed figure.
Lorist said with a smile while being fully on guard: "Your reaction just confirms what I said..."
"Uh..." The black-robed figure didn't expect Lorist to be waiting for her here, and immediately fell silent.
"Sylvia, step back and watch carefully, how did I teach this self-righteous bastard a lesson!" The hoarse voice burst into anger.
"Well, godmother, be careful..." Princess Sylvia stepped aside obediently.
The cold light suddenly filled the whole world, and the dark sky seemed to be divided into fragments by light blades. Lorist was stunned. Is this the power of the great sword master's sword? It is indeed a feeling of hopelessness and powerlessness that cannot be escaped.
He bit his tongue with his teeth, and the pain made him wake up from the incomparably dazzling light of the sword blade. Facing the countless cold lights that hit him, Lorist shouted loudly: "Good job..."
Instead of retreating, advance, body and sword unite, and counterattack to the center of the incoming blade storm...
"Clank, clank, clank..."
There was a series of violent sounds of sword strikes like a storm, and sparks could be vaguely seen splashing from the sword strikes, and the figures were divided into two parts. But Te "thump, thump, thump..." took four or five steps back before he stabilized his body...
"No wonder you are so arrogant. With this sword skill, it's no wonder you are so arrogant..." The black-robed figure's tone was very calm this time, and he no longer had the initial anger.
"Both and each other, I have finally seen how powerful a great swordsman is." Lorist's forehead was covered with sweat, and there were a few sword marks on his clothes. The thrill and danger of confrontation. However, Lorist's expression at this time was very relaxed. He knew it in his heart. The fight just now made him understand that it might be difficult to defeat this black-robed great swordsman, but it is easy to retreat completely.
Speaking of which, this was the first time that Lorist had formally fought against a great sword master, and there were also two great sword masters who died indirectly under Lorist's hands. Not to mention the nearby great swordsman Lu Yinsi, this old man was just looking for his own death due to bad luck. Far away is the slave catcher group that came across in the Principality of Rulm when Lorist led the northbound convoy just on the road. The motorcade clashed, and they were caught by Lorist and others.
What is the name of that great swordsman whose name has long been forgotten by Lorist, as soon as he got off the boat, Lorist led more than 400 crossbowmen and shot him from a long distance, plus Lorist's 72 spears with internal force? , He died aggrieved by the spear without even having to use his swordsmanship.
Lorist has always kept in mind the advice given to him by Professor Crude, who was promoted to the Great Sword Master of Dawn Academy. The Great Sword Master is equivalent to a big plate, which is what he can sense. The strength is very powerful, and if you compete with a great swordsman, you are like a silver cup on a plate, and you cannot escape the situation of being suppressed. So to deal with the great sword master, it is best to jump out of this big plate and defeat him with long-range power.
This is what Lorist did before, but this is the first time he has had a close encounter with the great swordsman, which made him finally understand the strength of the great swordsman. Compared with the golden swordsman, the great swordsman is obviously superior. Lorist has easily won against the Golden Swordsman and Golden Knight now. It can be said that he has taken the initiative from the beginning of the competition. But the fight with the black-robed figure just now made Lorist feel like he was pulling a mouse, and he couldn't make a move.
Perhaps it was because the black-robed figure was a woman, so the swordsmanship she practiced was light and fast. The sword is like lightning, and the sword is connected, so that people have an irresistible illusion. But in terms of power, Lorist feels that the sword's power is almost the same as that of the golden swordsman, and it doesn't pose a threat to Lorist.
It's just that the sword speed of the black-robed figure is really too fast. If it wasn't for Lorist's talent for dynamic vision, he really couldn't handle the overwhelming sword storm just now. That's all, one sword was blocked, and the second sword has changed according to the situation, and struck from another unexpected angle, forcing Lorist so hard to resist but unable to fight back effectively.
If it wasn't for the black-robed figure's sudden attack, which didn't last for a while, and the two swords collided to split the two of them, Lorist really couldn't guarantee whether he could continue to hold on without missing. At this moment, I was sweating profusely and believed that the figure in the black robe was also uncomfortable, but the black robe covered me so I couldn't see it.
Lorist stepped off his horse with his feet spread apart, holding the sword in both hands and lifting it obliquely above his head, with a serious and unmoving expression: "Senior, please..."
"Hey, look at the sword!" The black-robed figure pounced again with a loud chirp, this time changing his attack, his figure fluttering like a black butterfly, fluttering and fluttering around Lorist, from time to time a cold light flashed and dazzled the eyes .
And what Lorist held in both hands seemed to be a heavy sword, seemingly slow but extremely precise to attack the incoming cold light, he still defended with all his strength, and never attacked rashly.
"Clank, clank, clank..."
The sound of sword strikes sounded again, but this time the sound was no longer crisp, but rather hoarse...
In a shorter time than the first fight just now, the black-robed figure flipped back to the original place, but staggered when it landed, as if it didn't stand still.
"Good junior, you..." The black-robed figure was shocked and angry.
"Senior, it's not rude to come and go, look at the sword!" Loris laughed loudly, his feet slipped, and his figure was in front of the black-robed figure, and the long sword slashed straight down...
At this moment, Lorist transformed into a warrior on the battlefield, and his men's moves were wide open and closed, all of which were to kill both sides, but his figure was as swift as a swift leopard, extremely slippery and unpredictable, this time he was circling around the black The robed figure slashed straight, forcing the black robed figure to parry with all his strength...
"Give it to me!" Lorist yelled suddenly, slashed straight down and struck each other with two swords. Instead of following the trend, he flicked his wrist against the sword of the figure in black, and the long sword ran along the opponent's sword. The body of the sword turned over, and he directly raised his internal force. The black-robed figure shook his arm and could no longer hold the long sword in his hand. With a "clang", the long sword fell to the ground, and the tip of Lorist's saber was already on the black robe. The chest of the figure.
There was silence, no one expected that Lorist would defeat the great swordsman. Even the black-robed figure couldn't believe such a result, staring straight at the sword blade on his chest, his whole figure trembled.
"Acceptance, senior." Lorist put his sword back into its sheath, turned around and left.
"Wait... Can you tell me what this power in your body is called?" The hoarse voice came from behind again.
Lorist paused: "Don't dare to be complacent, this is a different and fighting way of cultivation, I call it internal strength."
"Internal power? The power in the body? It's really simple and clear. This kind of power seems to be very similar to the legendary monk's practice..." The black-robed figure was talking to himself from behind, and he didn't seem to care. He was defeated by Lorist.
"My lord, my lord..."
It was only then that Lorist realized that El, Reddy, Pat, Josk and others had entered the Grand Duke's mansion at some point, and they were standing by the gate to watch the competition between himself and the black-robed figure. And Josk is still on guard.
"Don't talk, go out first, we'll talk about it when we go back..." Lorist ordered in a low voice.
Everyone obeyed and filed out. Pat also graciously closed the door of the Grand Duke's Mansion.
Just a few meters away from the Grand Duke's Mansion, Lorist's figure was tilted, and he collapsed on El's body, which shocked everyone.
"Don't panic, I'm not hurt, I'm tired, I'm really exhausted and I'm walking, take me back, Reddy, let me soak in some hot water, let me rest and sleep and I'll recover , don't be nervous..." Lorist said with the last of his strength.
Josk said: "Listen to the adults, take it home first, you see..."
Everyone looked down, Josk was referring to the footprints of Lorist on the ground, all dripping with sweat...
This time, Lorist was in a state of exhaustion, and the internal energy in his dantian was exhausted. The hour-long fight with the great swordsman was the most dangerous time Lorist had ever experienced. If it wasn't for a clever idea, during the second fight, he used the internal force stored on the long sword and used the two swords to penetrate into the body of the black-robed figure to disperse his fighting spirit, causing him to suffer a big loss in secret, and then he took the opportunity to launch a strong attack. Forcing the black-robed figure to be unable to recover and can only parry with all his strength, maybe he will lose.
The main reason for being able to win was to use internal force to suppress the fighting spirit of the black-robed figure, just like the last burst of strength, making the black-robed figure unable to hold the long sword in his hand and lose. At this moment, Lorist had no more internal energy to use, so he quit as soon as he saw it, and turned around and left without even saying a word on the scene. In fact, Lorist himself felt exhausted and couldn't bear it any longer, so he stayed on. Maybe get down first. Seeing Josk and the others come to greet him, he relaxed and collapsed on El's back...
