Where did it come from? !
The words behind him made Don Quixote suddenly excited, and his right hand was placed directly on the hilt of the sword at his waist, ready to fire. But the Hede family's always strong psychological quality prevented her from doing anything next. She resisted the urge to draw out her sword and looked at the source of the sound.
Black windbreaker, standard hat, tall and thin figure, in addition to a silver cane in his hand, there is also a...
Looking at the "mask" painted with abstract art, Don Quixote's face condensed, then he turned his head and trembled slightly, then looked at the abstract man in the windbreaker with a normal expression, and asked in a deep voice:
"Who are you?"
"Zhou Li, 25 years old, is a brave man." After revealing his identity, Zhou Li took off his hat and bowed in a standard manner. Of course, at the same time, he also revealed the exclusive book for brave men hanging on his waist. When Don Quixote saw the four characters that exuded a unique brilliance, she understood the identity of this person.
"Hello, respected warrior."
He turned over and dismounted, and performed a breast caressing ceremony. However, the funny dress on his body could not hide Don Quixote's figure with golden proportions. She looked at Zhou Li with a calm look on her face, her fiery short hair dyed with a layer of brilliant light under the sunlight, "Don Quixote is here in response to the call."
"Oh?" Zhou Li, who was under the mask, raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth in a just right arc, "You came here in response to a summons? I never summoned you."
"You're joking."
Don Quixote stood up straight, and the dozens of knights behind him dismounted and stood upright behind her. Together they clenched their right fists and beat their chests, and the hum of the collision of metal and flesh suddenly resounded throughout the land.
"The Hede family, in response to the call of brave men, challenges the brave men!!!"
He is not as ferocious as a lone wolf, nor does he have the domineering intention of a tiger or leopard. This queue of thirty-one knights did not look extremely sharp at all. Even their leader, Don Quixote, did not have any sharp aura. They just stood there, but people could see towering mountains.
Can anyone disperse them?
"The Guardian Legion under Emperor Chong is indeed worthy of its reputation."
Just when everyone was astonished, Zhou Li on the side suddenly applauded and said with great appreciation: "In the final counterattack of the disaster, with only thirty people, dozens of city-states were saved from the world-destroying disaster. Known as the "Immortal Diamond Knight". It seems that Miss Tang has completely inherited the glory of the Hede family."
"you flatter me."
Tang nodded slightly, and the knights behind him took a step forward to relieve their formation. At this time, Ah Zi, who heard Zhou Li's words, suddenly remembered a rumor. This rumor was once spread decades ago when the Hede family was prosperous, but then suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons.
The Diamond Knights who disappeared back then were really the Hede family!
Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Ah Zi did not ask any questions. Because in today's scene, the protagonist can only be Zhou Li.
"The challenge has been issued, so now let's agree on the details of the challenge, Miss Tang."
Zhou Li stepped forward, faced the gazes of the knights and Don Quixote, and said with an expressionless expression on his masked face: "You must have seen my problem, right?"
"too weak."
Unceremoniously, after forcing himself to ignore a series of other shortcomings of the brave, such as "very beautiful, stinky, exploiting foreign races" and so on, Don Quixote bluntly pointed out Zhou Li's problem: "Black iron level... …With all due respect, I have never seen such a weak warrior, and in many cases, you can’t even compare to a slightly more talented professional.”
Faced with such fatal and shameless words, Zhou Li was not affected at all. Instead, he nearly laughed out loud when he heard such a blunt onslaught of language. Although Zhou Li had communicated with this knight lady many times, Don Quixote was too young now, and he was not sure that his method would be useful for Don Quixote of this era.
Now it seems that it was successful.
"So do you think the challenge between us is fair?"
Zhou Li smiled, and then a look of solemnity appeared on the face of Don Quixote in front of him. At first, she thought that the brave man was at least gold-level, and she came to challenge the brave man with the intention of admonishing him to death. However, what she didn't expect was that the hero could be so weak. Don Quixote now seriously doubted whether this brave man could defeat the glorious goose in her home.
She almost didn't win when she was at Black Iron level!
But now the situation is trickier.
Don Quixote frowned. For her, facing a powerful enemy would only make the knights of the Don Quixote family more excited. But bullying the weak is an insurmountable punishment for her.
"So, you and I still need to consider this matter in the long run."
Zhou Li turned sideways and extended his hand in an inviting gesture, "It would be better to invite Miss Tang and all the knights to come and stay in our settlement for a while, and we can discuss the content of the challenge."
"this……"
Don Quixote hesitated for a moment, but now the situation seemed good to her. After all, Zhou Li can now refuse this challenge simply because "the gap between you and my fighting ability is too big". And if the challenge is rejected, then Don Quixote's plan to get the brave man on the right track will completely collapse. But looking at Zhou Li's performance, he didn't seem to mean to refuse, which made Don Quixote start to hesitate.
"Okay, I agree."
His grandfather's teachings came to mind, and Don Quixote finally chose to agree to the matter, "But please don't prolong this matter for too long. My subjects still need me, and I'm really sorry."
"Don't worry, I promise you, this challenge will begin in half a month at most."
Seeing the relieved Don Quixote, Li Xia's smile widened even further, "Don't worry, I will do my best to make this challenge absolutely fair."
"I swear this in the name of a brave man!"
Zhou Li, who was dressed in pitch black and showed his elegance, held his right hand on his chest, his cane hanging on the ground, and the brave man's waist was shining brightly. Under the watchful eyes of the gods, a precious oath was established.
However, the expression on Eluma's face who was standing aside was already stiff. Just when Zhou Li said the words "swear in the name of the brave", a chill went straight to Eluma's heart.
If it breaks, this person will be in trouble.
Bad luck!
But Don Quixote was unprepared. She was shocked after seeing Zhou Li's actions, and then entered her room in a daze.
In the exquisite wooden house, Don Quixote sat on a chair and thought about what he had just done. Just now when she witnessed Zhou Li making such a valuable and sincere oath, she suddenly trembled in her heart.
For Don Quixote, Zhou Li's image in the past was always constructed by the unknown person's intelligence and several of her own intelligence agents. But now, after meeting him in person, Don Quixote had an inexplicable liking for this polite, humble and righteous young man.
Am I too preconceived about him?
///////////////////////////
In the exquisite wooden house, Zhou Li sat on a chair and flipped through "Exclusively for the Brave" and turned to the page that was used to obtain the power of the previous generation of braves. When the four cultivation paths appeared, the text that originally read "Chonghuang" had been stained with a layer of black ink, changing its original appearance.
(Black Emperor)
Zhou Li clicked on these three words. After clicking on the talent page, a line of abyss-like characters appeared on the book.
(The Will of the Black Emperor: Basic talent, you will obtain the eternal asylum of darkness)
(Acquisition conditions: Defeat an enemy stronger than you by any means necessary. Remember, the stronger the enemy, the firmer your will will be.)
Looking at this line of text, Zhou Li laughed wildly. Then, he put the letter aside and whispered to himself:
"The brave's first battle will be my first step to becoming the Black Emperor. At the same time, it will also be the first feast at the Goblin Farmhouse."
“It’s time to make some serious money!”
