Chapter 209: Suspect
Soon after, King Ronnie Sheen and various palace officials arrived here one after another, escorted by the Kingsguard.
The first to arrive were the head of finance, Glenamsi, and the head of intelligence, Varian Oyiqi.
The two people in front of him are very familiar to Knight Enod, but could they be the suspects who caused this incident?
The first time I saw these two people was in a sword duel, the person who was dressed in black and had a thin but very capable figure was Glenamsi, the head of finance, and the director of intelligence, Varian Oyiqi, who was wearing a loose robe, and they were only spectators of the sword duel at that time.
McClandall has also won a few bets against Varian Oyiqi in sword duels.
"One hundred gold bets, I'll bet Jolly to win."
When he saw that the White Knight was attacking and defending each other, McLandall suddenly announced loudly that he had just sneaked into the main venue, so at first the noble ladies did not pay attention to McLandall of the Randall family, this loser, illegitimate son was only a few people away from them.
"I'll follow!" Varian O shouted back, "It's impossible to lose!" The White Knight, Setner, I can see how good he is. ”
"Dear Lord Varian, there are both right and wrong information, even if you see it with your own eyes, it may not always be true, but no matter how it changes, anything can happen and it will never change." McLandall smiled back.
The White Knight continued to swing with Seltner's sword, touching the clanging sound on the shield, Jolly seemed to be more and more comfortable using this shield, he kept changing the direction of his grip, trying to counter the impact of the White Knight Esetna, for a while the White Knight Seltner had to slow down the speed of his sword, in exchange for a more advantageous position in the positions of the two sides.
"It's time for me to figure out how to spend your money." McClandall said to Varian Oyzi.
"Mike, I hope you can use my money to invite the commoners to drink, and tell them that this is the money of the Dubrovnik palace steward! Absolutely true! ”
The audience pointed at McCrandell, booing again and again, the noble old ladies couldn't help laughing, the white knight Seltner didn't show his full strength in the eyes of them, as long as he was a little more serious, the duel was completely over, and in the midst of the uproar, the three scenes heard most clearly was the burst of laughter of King Rolls Sheen, laughing louder than anyone else.
Jolly avoided the shadow of the white light sword, and launched another attack, although his speed was not fast, although the attack was not powerful enough, but it was very accurate, every move was to find the white knight with Seltner's vital point to attack, if it weren't for the white knight with Seltner's rich experience, in other words, he would have been broken through by this exquisite swordsmanship.
The White Knight slashed another clean attack on Seltner's side, he couldn't count how many times it was, it was obvious that he was slowly turning from the attacking side to the defending side, and Jolly seemed to be getting more and more handy, and even showed a very strange move at one point, the White Knight used Seltner's usual excellent body reflex to avoid it, and it was only a hair's length away from Jolly's long sword.
I saw Jolly pick it up, and he actually picked off the white helmet of the white knight Essertna, and his helmet was knocked over to the ground, and when it fell, it was knocked crooked and knocked into the dent.
The White Knight retreated again and again, and the audience was stunned for a moment, they saw a man with ordinary speed and strength, who was still holding the shield that the White Knight threw at Seltner to support the resistance, actually picked off his helmet, God, you must know that in a formal setting, the White Knight Setner has never been so embarrassed as he is today.
The aristocratic ladies covered their mouths with their hands, not daring to believe the truth in front of them, but it did happen, was it careless? Or was it accidental? Or was Jolly lucky?
Their hearts rose to their throats, and they looked very nervous at the moment, praying that the white knight would be more serious and that he would soon be able to end this embarrassing state in front of them.
Sanjing was also surprised, he didn't expect the seemingly inconspicuous knight Jolly, his swordsmanship accuracy had reached this level, the sword just now was very dexterously raised, I am afraid that no one here could do it without hurting the white knight Setner and instantly pick off his helmet.
But the audience who didn't know the truth would only think that it was the white knight who was careless for a while, but fortunately avoided Jolly's sword moves, so it was just the helmet that was picked off.
"Look! I knew Jolly was going to win. McClandell swore by it.
This was heard by Glenamsi of the Namsi family, who said, "As the king's treasurer, if you know the winner of the second round, tell me quickly, our treasury is almost empty!" ”
Prime Minister Jocrist couldn't help but smile when he heard this, how could such a big kingdom have its treasury almost empty.
People thought that Glenamsey had made a joke, and the joyous atmosphere gradually rose.
However, only Glenamsi himself knew that the treasury would really be empty if it were not for the fact that he was constantly getting money from other places......
"It's a pity that Lord Randall isn't here." McClandell said, "Or I can win twice as much!" ”
How daring!
People can't help but refresh their perception of McCrandell again, this McCrandell actually hit his father Tyne Randall with the idea of winning!
Jolly tossed his shield aside and whispered, "Hmm...... Now it's all over the place. ”
The White Knight, who had lost his helmet, regained his spirits with Seltner's solemn face, and once again tangled with Jolly, and the duel soon reached a fever pitch.
The shouts around them, the sound of swords colliding with each other, and the sound of staggered footsteps were completely intertwined.
Jolly also learned the previous moves of Theoli, completely abandoning defense, as if he had become another Theoli, and his speed and agility continued to increase in confrontation after confrontation.
I saw Jolly turn over and dodge through the gap in the white knight Esetna's white light sword shadow, and his right hand quickly drew a strange arc, and the long sword bent sideways and hit the tip of the white knight Esetna's throat.
"Kill me!" The White Knight Setner had already been held to the throat by Joe with a long sword, and at this point the victory was decided, and he would lose to an unknown man.
"Master Theoria has said that the sword is not a tool for killing, and as long as I win the final victory, it will not be a shame for you, right?" Jolly withdrew his sword and said lightly, his expression was very calm, he did not become happy because he won this duel, everything was as if it were taken for granted.
Maybe there is some kind of possibility for the person in front of him, the white knight Setner has mixed feelings in his heart at this time, indeed, as Jolly said, if Jolly can really win the final victory, then he just loses to the championship and does not lose the knight's honor.
The White Knight Setner withdrew his sword and hurried out of the dueling arena.
The surroundings were boiling, and they all turned to shout for Jolly, but they didn't expect this mediocre-looking Jolly to defeat the white knight Esertna like this, this battle made Jolly famous, completely subverting their previous perception and judgment of swordsmanship duels, and who can know if today's ordinary knights will be famous in the world and become famous knights in the future?
Jolly's fame in the fight attracted the attention of most of Dubrovnik, including the other thirteen people, and whether Jolly owned the Hermit card or not, his next battle would be the focus of everyone's attention, and people wanted to see how far the knight could go in the end.
The first round of sword duels ended in this dramatic fashion, and the second round of sword duels was quickly drawn by King Rolls Sheehan.
Western Europe against Inod.
Bamcris against Britney, a female swordsman.
Nierle vs. Bianda.
Shoka Sadin vs. Jolly.
Mike ...... Do you still bet this time? Varian Oyzi said to McCrandell, the two sides were still patiently probing, and they were staring at Shokasadin and Jolly.
"Two hundred gold coins! Jolly wins! McCrandell shouted excitedly, and at this point he had completely let himself go, raising the price of his bet by a whopping figure of two hundred gold coins.
"Good fellow, take my money and squander it like this!" Varian Oyizi became a little hesitant, "I'll follow!" Two hundred gold coins! I'm betting on Shaw Cassadine! ”
The surrounding nobles also looked at these two people in surprise, even if they were nobles, such a bet was too much.
"Worthy of Lord Varian, heroic! Readily! McCrandell gave a thumbs up to Varian Oyiqi and said to Glenamsi, "Lord Gle, here's your chance to make money!" ”
Treasurer Glenham didn't expect McLandall to dare to continue betting on Jolly, and was still encouraging him to bet on Jolly, but how could Shawka Sadine lose?
"The treasury has run out of two hundred gold coins! Spare me this time, Mistress Mack! Even the wealthy Glenamsy retreated.
There was another burst of laughter around him, and it was so funny that Glenamsey, the treasurer of the kingdom, had called McCrandell an adult.
"Mike! You've got you, you've made our Gregorians scared! Johani, the King's Scholar, sat on the sidelines, and the sword duel seemed boring and tedious to him, but the bet between the men seemed much more interesting than this.
"Hahaha." McLandall laughed wildly, excited, and the noble ladies around him all looked at him with disdain, in their hearts, a loser like McLandall, without a trace of elegant aristocratic demeanor, was really a shame for the aristocracy.
Shaw Sadine's sword of dawn was finally unsheathed at this time, and everyone's eyes were attracted to the sword at this moment, and the sword glowed with a strange luster, like a flashing silver elf, and the moment it was unsheathed, it shone like dawn.
"Worthy of the Sword of Dawn." King Rolls Sheen exclaimed, this sword has far surpassed all the swords in his treasury, Rolls Sheen once had the idea of occupying the Dawn Sword, but only because of the influence of the Cassadine family, it was finally dispelled that idea, it was the treasure of the Cassadine family, the symbol of the Cassadine family, unless one day the Cassadine family personally sent the sword, or exchanged it with him on other terms.
Although he was a king, he was also a knight and an excellent swordsman, he led some people to resist the brutal rule of the previous king, and finally successfully entered the palace, killed countless royal guards, killed the king, and opened a new chapter in Dubrovnik.
Jolly raised the shield he had used in the previous duel, and the White Knight Essetna didn't know if he forgot to take it, or if he had left it for him on purpose, but now it was Jolly's possession.
Shaw Sadin's whole person is like a killing god, when the dawn sword is unsheathed, he is like a completely changed person, no longer make any tentative movements, every move is like a sword out of the shadow with fierce ferocity, Jolly's shield emitted a screeching sound of metal impact, it was a powerful force constantly hitting the sound on the steel shield, the exquisite shield actually appeared a deep and shallow sword marks, no matter how strong the steel body seemed to be able to be instantly cut off by the dawn sword.
"Looks like the winner is decided, Mike Mike!" Intelligence Director Varian O'Yiqi said with a smile, he also learned the name of Glenamsi, Mike Mike.
"It's still early!" McLandall said.
"I don't see Jolly in any chance of victory." The imperial guard Janis Odo also said lightly, he had been guarding the king's side, and only then did he have a little time to join their discussion.
As a royal guard, he is tall and burly, with broad shoulders and thick arms like small tree trunks, in the previous battle against the previous king of Rolls Sheen, Janis Odo was just an ordinary knight, but in the end he stood with Rolls Sheen and attacked the palace together, it is said that as a nobleman of the Odor family, he killed no fewer knights than King Rolls Sheen, and even saved the life of King Rolls Sheen at a critical time, leaving a deep impression on Prime Minister Jocis and King Rolls Sheen, Because of his tall stature and tough style, he was not afraid of danger and was favored by King Rolls Sheehen, and became a royal guard.
Hearing Janis Otto say the same, everyone felt that McLandall would definitely lose all of his money now, and there would be no drop left!
But others don't know that although McCrandell seems to be free and uninhibited, he already has his own little abacus in his heart, if he wins, he can get great wealth and fame, if he loses, he takes this opportunity to befriend the king's many ministers and governors with a hundred gold coins, and the road can be wider and wider.
A startling scene suddenly appeared, under the strong momentum pressure and continuous force impact of Shoka Sadin, I saw Jolly holding a shield in his left hand and constantly retreating to resist, and his right hand drew a strange arc.
No, it wasn't so much that his right hand was gathering momentum, but that Jolly was desperate, and he took advantage of the gap between Shawkasadin's attacks to shake the shield with his left hand, and the heavy shield flew out of Jolly's hand like a blunt weapon.
Shaw Sadin waved the Dawn Sword with both hands, and subconsciously slashed towards the shield, the violent impact made Shaw Sadin's hands ache, he gritted his teeth and split the steel shield straight, "Bang", the solid shield was split into two by the Dawn Sword, and in the gap between the broken shields, a long sword deftly passed through, instantly knocking Shaw Sadin's Dawn Sword to the ground.
The audience was silent, and the whole process only took a few seconds, and the eyes could not see in the blink of an eye how Jolly had found the moment of the sword, and how he skillfully took advantage of the pause in the swing of the Dawn Sword to knock down the legendary sword.
Then the sober audience erupted in shocking cheers, as if they saw something incredible happening, and the Dawn Sword of Shoka Sadin was shot down by Jolly's long sword, and Shaw Sadin conceded defeat!
"Even Shoka Sadin was defeated, this Jolly who suddenly appeared is really incredible!" Queen Innie Randall showed a shocked expression, she has also seen a lot of knight duels, but it is the first time to defeat the strong with the weak like today, as a member of the Randall family, their family's dedication to power is unmatched, they have the supreme honor and dignity, they are superior to others, in Innie Randall's heart, the strength is absolute, the weak power cannot defeat the strong power no matter what, and having a strong power is equivalent to having the power to cut everything, Just like she is the queen, she can decide the life and death of any commoner at will, and even after finding a suitable reason, even those nobles who don't like it can be eradicated, and the queen herself is an absolutely powerful force!
It must have been that Shaw Sadin's strength was not strong enough to be defeated, and Queen Innie Randall had found the only answer in her heart, just as she used to eliminate her insecurities in various ways.
"Mistress Varian, let's go drink together when we have time! I'm in for a treat! McClandell was in a good mood, he had made another bet right, and he felt like the gods had been blessed with luck recently!
"Mike! I have money, but I can't drink! Let me be quiet! Varian Oz shook his head, he didn't expect this Jolly to be so powerful, he looked at Jolly carefully, re-examined him, and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Hahahaha, I'm really kidding, I've heard of Lord Varian's drinking, you must come and enjoy your face!" McClandell said with a smile, turning around as if he was about to leave, "Let's talk about gambling debts later, now I have to do something!" ”
"Mistress Mack, is this leaving? Luck is so against the sky, isn't there more than two rounds? Governor Glenamsi said from the side.
"Not coming, not coming." McCrandell rubbed his hands, "There's someone waiting for me!" He then disappeared into the crowd.
