colosseum
The body of Francis, the brave man who was already completely cold in everyone's eyes, actually moved, as if he was lying dead. Everyone in the audience looked at the Welsh magician in black, seeming to wonder if it was possible. A magician cast necromancy on Francis.
"No, it's impossible, this is actually made of copper and iron!" Liam showed an expression of disbelief. Although it was impossible to achieve the immortality of Achilles in Greek mythology, it was like the epic story "The Nibelung". Like the hero Siegfried in "Roots", he has a body of copper skin and iron bones bathed in dragon blood.
Liam looked like he had seen a ghost. Francis, the dragon-slaying hero, only slayed dragon eggs, not real dragons. How could he obtain such a physique? It’s just that facts speak louder than words. Francis does have it. A certain degree of immortality.
"There's someone cheating here, coach."
Liam yelled when he saw Francis who was charging towards him with his sword drawn. He faced Francis's feat in embarrassment and struck out with his sword. Liam blocked it with his shield, and then Frances punched Liam in the face.
When Liam saw Francis moving his fists directly, he wanted to pull out the holy sword and cut his wrist in desperation. Francis was not afraid at all. His arm and the holy sword collided with each other, and only a few sparks shot out. , which did not cause much damage to Francis at all.
"Despicable villain, you don't deserve to be a hero with your behavior, let alone a king."
Francis was furious, his head was still aching, and the flames of anger were burning in his heart. Liam's attack that had no sense of chivalry had already angered him.
At this time, he instinctively understood that he had an immortal body and had the advantage of having copper skin and iron bones. In the battle with each other, he chose to trade injuries for injuries and fight for his life. He didn't need to worry about defense. He focused on his body wholeheartedly. Attack the opponent.
If Liam was holding the real Holy Sword Dawn instead of the secondary weapon, Francis might still be able to retreat, but the properties of the secondary weapon are the projection of the Holy Sword Dawn's power, which does not include sharpness. , so Francis was emboldened, holding the holy sword in one hand and waving his fist in the other, vowing to avenge his "one shot to the head".
"boom!"
Liam's casserole-sized fist hit Liam's shield directly, and the huge force was directly transmitted to Liam's body. With a bang, a tall body flew straight away and fell two feet away. .
The audience in the arena still didn’t understand what was going on, how the brave Francis came back to life, and once he came back to life, he seemed to have become extremely powerful and invulnerable. He even directly pressed Liam and beat him. There was no way he could fight back.
Liam got up from the ground. At this time, his eyes were filled with stars, and he instantly understood the truth of the matter. It must be the intervention of the gods behind the scenes. This was the gods helping Francis cheat.
"Liam, if you are a man, fight me if you can. Don't hide like a woman." Francis's eyes were red, murderous and painful. Seeing that he got punched, he got up as if nothing had happened. Yam, the anger almost burned out his sanity.
Although Francis was only bathing in the liquid of dragon eggs instead of the blood of a real dragon, under the stimulation of the divine power, he could still obtain the same effect of being invulnerable as bathing in dragon blood.
Francis' whole body was boiling and angry at this time. It was not so much the anger at Liam's sneak attack, but the power of the dragon's blood that had been stimulated. He had been infected by emotions and could not control his own emotions. Big explosion.
Frances had to vent, and Liam was the perfect person to do it to.
"Liam, don't hide, I'm going to beat you to death." Francis shouted loudly.
Liam spread his hands, "It seems that there are no set rules for a duel. It doesn't say that I can't hide. As long as I don't leave this competitive ring, I can't be considered a loser. It's just Francis, I'm curious about your body." It depends on how long it can support the awakening of dragon blood."
There was a joking look in Liam's eyes. He had already made up his mind. When Francis attacked, he would run away and dodge. He would never fight this madman who had gained immortality. The holy sword in his hand was just a secondary weapon. It doesn't have the ability to cut iron like clay, so since it can't break Liam's defense, naturally it can only wait for Francis's dragon blood to cool down.
"If you have the guts, come and beat me to death. Even if you are already at level three, I can run faster than you. If you can't catch up with me, you can't kill me!"
Liam scoffed, seriously assuming his title of deserter was for nothing.
"Shameless, so shameless."
There was a burst of sighs from the audience, all of which were mocking Liam. However, looking at the triumphant Liam, the audience was speechless. The contestants in the tournament were all knights, princes, and kings from all over the world. .
On this public stage, even if there are knights who do not have the spirit of chivalry and are despicable at heart, they will never use such shameless tactics in front of everyone's eyes. Because once such tactics are used, even if they win, they will lose all glory. Therefore, for the knights, if they must win in this way, it is better to let them die.
But for Liam, it doesn't matter at all. His title is Deserter, and his knightly glory is long gone for everyone. Therefore, even if he uses this method to win, it is very consistent with his character. .
Precisely because the contestants are all knights, King Arthur, as the King of Knights, did not formulate detailed rules in this tournament. He completely believed that all knights could participate in the competition upholding the spirit of chivalry. Who knew that Liam would appear? A weird thing that doesn’t talk about chivalry.
"This is the power of copper skin and iron bones after bathing in dragon blood!"
Lily looked at Francis who was showing off his power and said in surprise. Obviously, it was unexpected that Francis could awaken this talent. The second level legend is only the ultimate of human beings, but to put it bluntly, legend is still the category of human beings. The third level is a miracle. , this cannot be achieved by human beings relying on their own subjective will.
For some people, it is very easy to achieve the first level and the second level, but it is very difficult to achieve the third level, because becoming a legendary strong man does not mean that there are gods and other beings who favor him, just like a Greek epic story The warriors in the film are always the foil of the heroes.
It is very easy for some groups to reach the third level. For example, the sons and grandsons of gods who are hybrids of humans and gods are already at the third level from birth. As for whether they will be able to complete legendary achievements in the future, that is another matter. .
Similarly, some people may become real immortals due to their handsome appearance and are god-like rather than god-like, such as Adonis, the most handsome man in Greece, who was doted on by the Queen of Hades and the God of Love respectively, and The equally handsome Ganumedes was attracted by Zeus, who accepted both men and women, and was taken to the heaven to become Zeus's cup-tender. They were all "strong men" who changed their fates by virtue of their good looks.
As long as he is handsome, not to mention a third-level or even a fourth-level immortal can be expected.
The great hero Hercules, as the son of Zeus, worked hard to complete twelve great and impossible feats. The final result was that his body was burned by fire, and his soul climbed to Mount Olympus and became a member of the gods. But because he offended Hera, he was expelled from Mount Olympus and became a god without a priesthood.
Ganumedes relied on his appearance to win the favor of Zeus and successfully transformed from a mortal to a god.
Lily looked at Liam, then at William, and then at Francis. Judging from his appearance, the brave Francis was only a little more handsome than William, and far worse than the prince Liam. .
Therefore, it was not Francis' appearance that won the favor of the gods, but the Nordic gods deliberately enhanced Francis' power, and Francis' appearance seemed to have become more beautiful due to the stimulation of dragon blood.
"William, do you want to become more handsome?" Lily couldn't help but ask. As long as you become handsome, it will be easy to break through the upper limit of destiny, and this can also activate the red dragon's blood in William's body.
