Chapter 329: Aftermath
And so it was over.
From beginning to end, from the time the two played to the time when the winner was decided, I am afraid that there was not even twenty minutes, which can almost be regarded as the shortest game in the previous Midsummer Festival. This time, however, instead of complaining as before, the spectators left the Holy Arena in high spirits and went around talking and discussing the game. Although from the beginning of the Midsummer Festival to the present, the games that these people have watched are not good, but in their memories, there is no game that can be compared to the one in front of them, they not only saw the famous President Battle of the Purple Lily Guild exert his full strength, but also saw the true strength of the young man who has always been mysterious, all of which couldn't help but make many people stunned, and many people changed their tone again, just a day ago, They all thought that the mercenary group led by this young man was just lucky enough to defeat the Heavenly Sword, but now, they had all changed their opinions, and most of these people were experienced swordsmen and mercenaries, and they were able to understand and see the contrast of strength between the two sides better than ordinary people. According to them, if this young man can defeat Battle unscathed in a single move, then his strength has almost reached the realm of legend - no, maybe even a swordsman who has stepped into the realm of legend.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and the people who were able to live and live in the Golden City were not lonely and unheard of country villagers, and they naturally knew what was going on in the legendary realm of the Dao Dao. So at this time, the odds of the Starlight Mercenary Group were greatly bullished, and Battle's strength can be said to be one of the strongest among the four mercenary guilds, of course, the existence of this one is precisely because of the existence of Lawson of the Freedom Wings Guild, although he has not appeared in public for a long time, but people with a little knowledge have heard of Lawson's name——— the name of "Fury Lawson" was not only well-known in the Principality of Moon, but even enjoyed a reputation in half of the Dragon Soul Continent.
Originally, in the eyes of many people, the last battle was the most worthy of their expectations. As the strongest of the younger generation, Battle challenges the long-famous Lawson, and this battle will completely determine who is the strongest mercenary in the Principality of Moon. But now, halfway through, a Cheng Biting Jin suddenly came out, and this peak duel was broken up.
But the crowd was not disappointed. On the contrary, they are more and more anticipatory and excited, after all, compared to Battle, who everyone has known for many years, this young man killed in the crossroads is obviously more gimmicky and attractive, although there are no unscrupulous reporters in this era, but the blood of human beings born to gossip will burn even if it does not need to be provoked.
They began to discuss Rodes' identity in detail, no matter what. This young man can't be an ordinary mercenary, no matter how you look at the other party, he is only in his early twenties, and he can reach the legendary realm at this age, and his identity is by no means simple.
Some people speculate that he may be an ancient nobleman who came to the Golden City with his own plans, and maybe after the Midsummer Festival, the distribution of power in the Golden City will be transformed again. Some people also believe that he may be a disciple of a legendary master, who came out to travel and see the world. Otherwise, with his strong strength, why would he choose to form a mercenary group? There are even more outrageous rumors, even saying that Rhodes is most likely the guard of the Grand Duke of Lydia, and may even be her fiancé——— which is not difficult to understand. It is rumored that this grand duke likes beautiful things the most, and originally Rod's beautiful face was just a topic of conversation after dinner, but with the strength of his legendary realm, it was a completely different matter.
Everyone had their own ideas, and now that the battle was over, they couldn't wait to find someone to share their opinions, and because of this, instead of making them feel sorry for the early end of the game, on the contrary, these people were very glad that the battle ended so early. This gives them plenty of time to talk and guess what they have just seen. According to the standards of the previous game, it would be at least noon when these people were all finished, and at that time, there would only be less than two or three hours to start the team battle, and this little time was obviously not enough for them to talk about this topic, and now that the other party has already withdrawn. Then they naturally didn't stay longer and left one after another. …,
"That's interesting."
In the crowd, Waltz frowned with a gloomy face and stared at the passage, where Rhodes was no longer visible, but Waltz was not in a good mood at all.
Of course he is not good, originally Mobis lost the game, which has already embarrassed the reformers, with the idea of not underestimating the enemy, Waltz came here to see what level that bastard of Battle has reached now. Will it pose a threat to the plans of the reformers, but he did not expect that he actually saw a greater threat.
Legendary Realm.
Thinking of this, Waltz couldn't help but subconsciously glanced at the old man sitting next to him with the corner of his eye, what is the current strength of Lawson, even Waltz himself is not clear, before he retired, the old man reached the level of a top swordsman, according to ordinary inference, after so many years, he should also enter the legendary realm. But Waltz knows very well that although the top swordsman and the legend are only separated by a line, that line is an insurmountable moat, and many swordsmanship masters have spent their lives and have not been able to reach this situation. Although after reaching the top realm, they can live longer than 100 years, but even if they spend half of their lives, they may not be able to comprehend and cross this line.
So, whether Lawson has reached the realm of legends, even Waltz is not clear. Out of politeness, he didn't bother to ask this question, after all, this old man had a strange temper, and he was not easy to mess with. Although he was a die-hard reformer, his ideas were far from those of the current reformers because of his age. The reformist aristocrats knew that they could not overwhelm the overwhelming power and authority of Archduke Lytia, so they tried to use the power of the Council of Light to achieve their goals. But Lawson has always scoffed at this, he does not trust the Parliament of the Land of Light, but for Lawson, he only hopes to gain more power through reform, which is the foundation of the reformers in the first place, by reforming and overthrowing the current principality system, to establish a new country like the Land of Light, which is completely in their own hands. But now, fear and weakness have overwhelmed that power. They were more like hugging the thighs of the Council of Light in the hope that they would help them keep Lydia out of the bloody rain, and that they would be content if they could follow the council and eat what they had leftover.
This was naturally intolerable to Lawson, who, in his view, the weakness of the reformers had tarnished the ideals of their original founding——— not for one person to decide the fate of the country. It's up to everyone to decide. But now, these wastes have abandoned their ideals and instead shook their heads and prayed for the protection of the council? How is this different from making them surrender in front of this milky little girl?
They still can't be their own masters.
Although Lawson was dissatisfied with the weakness of the reformers, he eventually came out of the mountain under the pleas of the reformers. Because Lawson knew very well what this midsummer festival meant to the reformers. If they lose here, then it means that they have lost everything, and the moody archangel will most likely take this opportunity to uproot the reformers once and for all. This is what Lawson cannot tolerate, even if the reformers are weak and incompetent, but he is still his former and current ideals. Even if it's a barren mountain. As long as you wait for the rainy season to arrive, the green grass will still grow on the dry cliffs.
So Lawson ended up here.
"Lord Lawson, it looks like we've got a strong enemy." ..., Waltz said through gritted teeth. He didn't care about Mobis when he was defeated, after all, Mobis, a slippery head, put his mind on those things that stabbed people in the back all day long, and his strength was the worst among them, so it was not surprising that he was defeated, at that time, Waltz was only a little surprised by Rod's strength, but he didn't think it was exaggerated, as Victor thought before, like their identity qualifications, the so-called genius doesn't know how many people Lu Dao has seen, A swordsman in his early twenties would only be scared out of the hillbilly aristocracy. In their eyes, it's just a slightly better gem.
But when gemstones turn into diamonds, it's a different story.
Legendary Realm.
Thinking of this, Waltz couldn't help but have a headache, he finally understood why he was at the holy war ceremony that day, that inconspicuous-looking kid actually dared to threaten himself so nakedly, with his strength, it must not be difficult to kill himself on the spot at that time. Luckily, I was lucky............ But what happens next? Do you really want to gamble?
Not only that, judging from the performance of this young man, it seems that he is still a member of the royal party, this is a big trouble, the powerhouse of the legendary realm, even the parliament of the country of light does not dare to provoke it head-on, is it really heaven to kill my reformers?
Having said that, the unfortunate things have happened one after another in the past two days, and Edward's bastard has disappeared, and he originally wanted to send someone to find the other party, but now it seems that there is no good way to do it except to report it......... What kind of evil is this, and all the bad things have been caught up by themselves.
Thinking of this, Waltz gritted his teeth and was about to say something more, but at this time, Lawson, who was sitting next to him, suddenly stood up.
"Hmph, interesting."
He just said that, and then turned and walked into the passageway, leaving the waltz still sitting still, looking at Lawson's distant back, not knowing what to say. Interesting? What does this mean? Is he sure? Still not sure? That's a good idea, huh?
Forget it, you can't rely on him too much.
Thinking of this, Waltz shook his head, and he also stood up, then looked up again at the empty passageway.
It seems that the only way to solve the problem is to use your own way.
"Poof!!"
Rhodes was half-kneeling, blood wafting from the cold corridors of the arena, and beside him, Lizzie and Labis were scrambling to help him heal.
"Mr. Rhodes, Mr. Rhodes, you're fine!!"
"My lord, Lord Guardian, are you still alive?!"
It was no wonder that the two of them were so flustered, because as soon as Rhodes walked into the arena passage, he fell to his knees and fell to the ground, although everyone saw blood spurting out of Rhodes's mouth as if he didn't want money, and his eyes, nose, and ear holes were also dripping with shocking blood. This scene made everyone's faces pale, and Labis was even more frightened and almost fainted, but fortunately, Lijie reacted in time. Hurriedly reached out and released several healing spells on Rod, which barely stabilized Rod's injuries.
"Whew............ Don't worry, at least you can't die. ”
After spitting out the mud that had clotted into black blood clods again, Rhodes finally felt better. The ability to break through himself is really a pervert, just now he really thought that he would really die like this, forcibly improved beyond the limit of what his current body can bear, and Rod can even feel that all his internal organs are injured, if he is placed in his own world, if he is not sent to the hospital as soon as possible, he may be killed immediately, even if he is sent to the hospital or not, he still has to resign himself to fate. However, now in this worldly realm, the effect of spiritual magic is not as good as that. 、…,
In fact, if it weren't for Rhodes forcibly suppressing the injury, but rejecting it immediately after the effect disappeared, then it wouldn't have been so serious. But Rod didn't do that, he keenly felt the gaze from the stands——— in front of his enemies, Rod would not show his weak side.
"Ahem...............
Although Lijie's current spiritual skills are also improving along with the improvement of the level, the healing effect is not good, and Rod can feel that the blood in his internal organs is clotting into blood clots. It forced him to spit out the filth, which was uncomfortable——— but it was much better than death.
Anne stood uncharacteristically beside her, her hands on her chest. The little face turned white with fright. It's no wonder that when Roder walked into the passage, Anne jokingly patted Rod's body, complaining that he robbed him of the opportunity to play, but she didn't expect that Rod's reaction would be like this, for a while Anne didn't know what to say, she stared blankly at Rod receiving Lijie's treatment, and Labis next to her took out a handkerchief and desperately wiped the blood on his body, but she couldn't do anything.
Not only Annie, but also Lando and Joey were stupefied. Rhodes had always been silent in front of them, they never thought that this young man would be injured one day——— Holy Soul was on it, he hadn't been injured even the slightest bit when he killed the demon.
Is that person so powerful?
"Whew............ Alright, thank you. ”
Rhodes reached out, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then took the healing potion that Labis handed him and drank it in one gulp. The cold and sweet potion accompanied by the effect of spiritual magic instantly flowed all over Rod's body, dispelling the pain on his body, and Rhodes stood up and felt dizzy, but at this time, Lijie also hurriedly stepped forward and supported him.
"You need to rest, Mr. Rhodes!"
"Don't worry, it's just a little injury."
Looking at Lijie's concerned gaze, Rod patted her on the shoulder and comforted her casually. He could feel that his body was recovering rapidly at the moment, and if it hadn't been unexpected by Rhodes, then he should be able to recover by tomorrow morning.
Rhodes's words were an understatement, but in the ears of Lando and Joey and others, it was a little awe-inspiring and a little hurt? Is this all bleeding or a small injury? Our captain is really not a mortal............
But now Rod's suspicion of this skill is getting higher and higher, and his original idea of building and refining equipment was to serve his swordsmanship, so at first he only noticed that this skill Rod was only in his heart at the beginning, but he didn't experiment with it. After all, this skill is passively triggered, and Rhodes can't find a character who can damage more than half of his extremely high physique in a broken place like Deep Rock City. But now after truly experiencing this skill, Rod feels that it is a more powerful skill, but in this way, according to the characteristics of the construction and refining, it means that the sum of his physique values is higher than the dexterity he has added with great effort? And it's not a little bit high?!
As the former guild president, Rhodes is naturally very aware of the attributes of those MT suits, although he is responsible for the output, but as a team commander, of course he has to understand the attributes and skills of other players, and the physique of those MTs is very high, but even among them, no one has ever had a skill like this, after all, this skill is extremely rebellious, if there is really one in the game, then a MT only needs to be hit by the boss, and then he can immediately kill the boss, It's a big deal to kill the boss again and let the healing add health back. Such an anti-heaven existence, if it really exists in the game world, then it is absolutely impossible for him to have no news at all. …,
Then there are only two possibilities, either your Constitution attribute has surpassed the Constitution value of all MT in the existing game, or this skill has never appeared in the game. While either of these is possible, ............
That's a little unscientific, isn't it?
Thinking of this, Rod couldn't help crying without tears, he really had the idea that it was not a wrong choice to choose to strengthen dexterity when he advanced, but this idea just flashed in Rode's mind, he didn't regret it, after all, no matter how strong his physique was, Rod was not good at MT-like head-on confrontation, this was not the way he was familiar and good at fighting.
But even so, Rod couldn't help but yy, if he chose to strengthen his physique when he strengthened his attributes, would he get a more perverted suit attribute now?
After a few moments, Rod finally recovered, and although he still felt a little empty and weak in his body, at least he couldn't even stand on his feet like before.
After that, Rhodes took out a cloak and draped it over his body to cover the blood on his body, and then he gestured to the crowd.
"Alright, let's go."
"Let's go?"
Hearing this, Li Jie was stunned.
"Mr. Rod, why don't you rest first, ........."
"No, we'd better hurry back as soon as possible, I still have important things to do."
Speaking of this, Rod frowned, at this moment his thoughts have drifted back to the pair of dog men and women who are guarded by Qilian in the station, the identity of that man is not ordinary, Rod needs to get enough information from his mouth, in case the time is delayed, the night is long and the dream is long, and if the other party reacts and perceives that something is wrong, then it will be a big trouble.
ps: Some Kavin lately......... It's hard .........)
