Chapter 944: Ring of Glory
Ring of Glory.
It is a naturally formed cave with the addition of a huge cave dug by hand, and the interior is empty and level.
In the center is a circular arena with a diameter of about three hundred to five hundred meters. The outer circle is a circle of seats that are gradually raised to accommodate spectators. On the northernmost side, there is a naturally raised stone platform.
This huge cave is the most sacred and important place of the Shadow Blade Clan, the Ring of Glory.
Generations of Sword Saints of the Shadow Blade Clan have all completed the handover in this holy land.
Under the gaze of countless orcs, the old sword saint died, and the new sword saint stood in the center of the stage, bathed in glory. It's called handover.
For every two people who step into the Ring of Glory, one will die, an ancient rule of the Shadowblade Clan. Either the original Juggernaut stepped on the corpse of the challenger to defend his glory, or the challenger sent away his predecessor and was crowned as the new Juggernaut.
Regardless of life or death, as long as you step into the ring, for the orcs who regard honor more than life, this life is worth it.
Every time the Circle of Glory fights, a large number of orcs come to watch the battle. The Shadow Blade Clan will not stop the orcs of other clans from watching, and the more spectators, the more honor and applause will be represented.
It's also good for the Shadowblade Clan's fame, and every fight is a free promotion.
The battle of the Circle of Glory on this day is undoubtedly more eye-catching.
The reason is simple, another person who stepped into the Circle of Glory...... It's a human being. Moreover, he is also a prophet who moves the continent.
Not to mention, the Prophet of Humanity entered the war as the challenged.
In the past two days, the feud between the Human Prophet and the Shadowblade Clan, including the defeat of Marshal Kilgaz, has also evolved into multiple versions, which are rapidly circulating in Redstone King. Countless gossip has made many orcs look forward to this battle.
Seats in the outer ring of the Circle of Glory...... Be booked up.
King Kamush stands on a naturally raised platform on the north side. According to the rules, there must be a grand person of great prestige to preside over the duel, and since King Kamush is here, he is naturally the best candidate.
Soon, the figure of the Shadow Blade Sword Master appeared at the entrance of the Circle of Glory, and he stepped into the ring step by step.
The Shadow Blade Blade Juggernaut, who was half naked, had a face and body smeared with patterns depicted in ashes, which were called war marks in orc customs.
Cheers rang out, shouts rang out one after another.
"Great Juggernaut!"
"Come on, kill that human!"
"Defend the glory of the orcs!"
Most of the orcs support the Shadow Blade Blade Master. Needless to say, human prophets are foreigners after all. If a foreigner defeats the Sword Saint of the Orc Kingdom, doesn't it mean that the Terran is much more powerful than the Orcs.
The Shadow Blade Sword Saint held his long sword, like a statue, and closed his eyes slightly.
After a while, he opened his eyes.
"It's time. Where is my opponent?"
In fact, before the Shadow Blade Sword Master spoke, the field was already filled with whispers. Obviously, the time is coming, but the human prophet who is being challenged has never appeared!
Many people are secretly muttering, is it not the human prophet who has escaped? After all, human beings are cowardly by nature, and they are not as good as the brave orcs. On the battlefield, the performance of human routs has proven this many times......
As the Shadow Blade Sword Saint opened his mouth to question, a wave of noise quickly surged in the audience.
"Coward!"
"Coward!"
"He doesn't deserve to step into this holy place!"
King Kamush frowned.
Suddenly, a whirlwind of black shadows rushed into the Circle of Glory, and then stood still.
It was a figure wearing a black cloak, and it was hard to see. Many people are speculating whether this person is a human prophet or not?
The Shadow Blade Sword Master frowned, "Don't hide your head and tail, human. ”
With a whirl, the black cloak flew up, revealing a slender and graceful girl's figure. She raised her voice and said, "Shadow Blade Sword Saint, I will duel with you instead of my brother!"
Boom, the audience was in an uproar.
Orcs and humans are not the same. Human nobles can appoint others to duel in their place, but orcs will not shy away from sacred duels, which would be seen as cowardice.
The Shadow Blade Sword Saint turned his head and looked at King Kamush on the high platform, "I have been insulted. I demand that this human woman be executed. ”
King Kamush coughed, "Wait a minute. I think it is necessary to ask the reason first. ”
This sentence speaks to the hearts of many orcs. If you want to say that a human prophet was not afraid of a duel, why didn't he go to the field himself? If you want to say that he was afraid of a duel, it would not make sense to send his own sister to die.
Faced with King Kamush's questioning, Li Shuyi threw out a long-made answer:
"My brother is going to help you find the entrance to the leyline corridor. He said that as long as the entrance is found, the tragedy of the earthquake in the Amusa Forest can be prevented from repeating itself on the Gagule Plateau. ”
An old orc with a hunched back stood up: "I can testify that I am accompanied by my student Murkan. ”
"The Great Shaman of Iskhu!"
Someone exclaimed.
King Kamush nodded and said, "It is indeed an important matter to prevent a great earthquake, and for this reason I have made a special trip to ask the Prophet for this matter. ”
The discussion of the orcs is a bit divided. A considerable number of orcs began to change their tone, and their rejection of Bai Xiaowen was not as serious as it was at the beginning.
After all, Bai Xiaowen went to help the orc kingdom investigate hidden dangers. No one wants to see the catastrophe of the Amusa Forest repeat itself in their own country.
There was only one person with a gloomy face, and that was the Shadow Blade Sword Master. He looked back at King Kamush, who was also looking at him.
"Why haven't I gotten any news," the Shadowblade Swordsman said in a dry and low voice, "if he had explained to me in advance, this duel could have been postponed. ”
Li Shuyi, who was on the other side, said crisply: "My brother said that investigating the leyline corridor is not an easy task, and he doesn't know how long it will take. If you postpone it, you will look down on you. ”
King Kamush was a little moved: "If you both agree to an extension......
The Shadowblade Blade smiled cruelly. He said three words.
"Great Chief, so many viewers are looking forward to it. ”
"In the Ring of Glory, only one person can leave alive, this is an iron law. ”
"If you can't use the blood of the enemy, then at least use the blood of the enemy's blood relatives to wash away the shame of the Shadow Blade Clan!"
Kamush sighed helplessly, and then looked at Li Shuyi: "Human girl, do you have anything else to say?"
"No more. ”
Li Shuyi neatly drew out two long swords: "Let's start." ”
I have to say that Li Shuyi's attitude of not being BB if she can do it has aroused praise from many orcs. They have seen a lot of human ingenuity, and the human girl in front of them, no matter what her strength is, at least this courage is admirable.
"Okay...... Then I declare, the duel begins!"
