Xiao Feng coughed lightly and said, "I promised Vincent that I would go to watch the duel between the two of you. You don't mind, right?"
"It's up to you." Petain snorted coldly and waved his hand, signaling the three of them to leave quickly.
After leaving the temple of Abos, Cagalli couldn't help but complain.
"Is he serious? If the city lord's son dies in a duel, it will definitely be big news, right?"
Xiao Feng said calmly: "That is also his choice."
"Besides, I think he looks very confident, so he might be fully prepared."
"You mean to ambush dozens of archers at the duel place in advance. If he is about to lose, you will launch a salvo of thousands of arrows?"
"Who knows."
The three of them stayed at a random hotel in the city for one night, and hurried to the cemetery in the east of the city the next morning.
Xiao Feng walked around casually to make sure there were no archers ambushing him, then patiently waited for the two duelists.
After a while, Vincent and Petain came here one after another.
Vincent wears leather armor and holds a giant axe, while Petain wears plate armor, holds a spear and rides a war horse.
Of course, this was not a riding duel. The latter quickly dismounted and came to Vincent.
Despite this, there is a big difference in the equipment between the two.
Xiao Feng even doubted whether Vincent's ax could break through the defense, but Vincent didn't care at all.
"Very good, it seems you are not too timid to come to the appointment." Vincent laughed.
Petain snorted coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, can the duel begin?"
Vincent looked around and touched his unshaven chin: "Is the audience a little small?"
"That's enough, let's start quickly!" Petain said solemnly.
Vincent nodded, and then suddenly struck Petain's neck with an ax, which was also the weak spot in the opponent's armor.
"Haha, this is called a war that never tires of deceit!"
He had already coated the ax with poison to ensure that even if the opponent's skin only broke a little, he would die.
Petain's expression remained unchanged, and he easily blocked the opponent's ax with the spear in his hand. At the same time, he said coldly: "You really only know a few tricks."
"So what? As long as you can win." Vincent said and slashed several times at lightning speed, but was blocked one by one.
"It's ridiculous, the final winner will only be me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, golden arrogance erupted from Petain's body, knocking Vincent away.
Kate looked a little moved and said: "What a strong fighting spirit! I'm afraid I'm only one step away from becoming a legend!"
Xiao Feng raised his eyebrows: "Do you call that fighting spirit? I think he is far from a legend."
After all, according to Blue Star's standards, Petain's zhenqi or fighting spirit was only at the level of a second-level grandmaster.
Vincent, who was thrown out, rolled like a carp and got up again. At the same time, he laughed loudly and said: "Okay, very good!"
After saying that, blue arrogance erupted from his body and he rushed towards Petain.
With the blessing of true energy, both of their weapons can easily break through each other's armor, but true energy also provides a powerful defense.
The two fought against each other for a long time, but neither one succeeded in breaking through the other's defense.
Seeing that the arrogance of both parties had weakened, Vincent roared again, and his arrogance surged again.
He chopped off the opponent's spear with one stroke of his axe.
Of course Xiao Feng could see that this outburst was only temporary.
When it's over, Vincent will languish, so he must seize the opportunity and deal with the opponent as soon as possible.
Petain's expression remained unchanged and he snorted coldly: "Have you finally run out of skills?"
As he spoke, he used his true energy to condense a golden sword in his hand to resist the opponent's attack.
Soon, the ax in Vincent's hand also broke.
So he threw the ax aside and started fighting Petain with his fists.
But with the end of the burst of zhenqi, Vincent gradually fell into a disadvantage and suffered more and more wounds on his body.
In the end, Pétain pierced Vincent's heart with a sword and won the final victory.
Vincent grabbed the zhenqi sword that penetrated his heart and said in a deep voice: "Treat her well."
Petain snorted coldly: "You don't need to tell me, I can do it."
Vincent then let go of the sword and slowly fell down.
Xiao Feng sighed and planned to keep his promise and help Vincent collect the body.
At this moment, a wave of arrows suddenly shot from the forest in the distance, and everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
Xiao Feng thought: Are there really archers? But their target seems to be Pétain?
Petain blocked the incoming arrow with his long sword and asked angrily: "Who is it?"
Soon, dozens of soldiers came out of the woods, led by a guy wearing armor similar to Petain's, but without a helmet.
Petain's face turned pale instantly: "Yasen, do you want to rebel?"
Yes, the other party was a general under his father.
Yasen smiled slightly: "You misunderstood, we are only following your father's orders."
"What?" Petain's eyes widened: "Father, how could he..."
"That's the fact. The earl is very disappointed with your behavior and has decided to erase you and those who knew it from this world."
"If you die in the duel, then there is no need for us to take action against you. I just didn't expect your opponent to be so unbearable."
"Everyone who knows about it? Could it be that..." Petain suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Don't worry, that woman is not dead yet."
Yassen clapped his hands, and two more soldiers walked out of the woods.
Also in custody was a woman with rose-red hair, the woman Vincent and Pétain were attracted to.
Her appearance is indeed good, but it doesn't seem to be enough to make people fall in love with her at first sight.
Although she was in danger, she still looked calm.
Only when he saw Vincent's body lying on the ground, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Petain immediately said in a deep voice: "Let her go, Yassen!"
Yasen shook his head: "She is the bargaining chip we use to threaten you."
"If you want us to let her go, just let her go."
"Are you kidding me? Didn't you just say that you would wipe me and those who knew the information out of the world?"
"Then what difference does it make if I surrender or not?" Petain said coldly.
"Indeed, that's what I just said."
"But if you think about it carefully, erasing you and those who know the information from the world does not necessarily mean killing you, it can also mean life imprisonment."
Petain's face suddenly stiffened.
"How? Do you want to surrender or fight to the end?" Yasen said with a half-smile.
At this moment, Xiao Feng suddenly said: "Do the insiders you mentioned include us?"
Yasen's eyes flickered and he said, "Indeed, you have been watching here since just now. You should know the inside story very well, right?"
