From one end of the Grand Ballroom of the Golden Castle to the other, guests automatically branched a path between David Duran and Ranger Anthony. [No pop-up novel website] Both sides of the road have almost been squeezed into a human wall. The guests in the front are pushing each other, and the guests behind are pushing forward. And outside the golden castle, all the media agents and paparazzi of the lighthouse star, entertainment version The commentators and commentators on the current affairs page are all rushing to the Golden Castle - from the moment they learned that David Duran's girlfriend was called away by the recently famous ranger Anthony at the banquet, they started rushing to the banquet, and now even more He is rushing like crazy. He can ride on a spaceship instead of a rocket. He can borrow superpowers to fly on his own, but he will never run on his own.
Come on, it's time for a duel! If it's too late, you won't be able to catch up! This is another collision between the light of the nobility and the upstart Ranger! It’s a battle of old and new potentials! Maybe it will become a turning point in history! If you are just a little late, you may miss this important and exciting moment!
These various people came to the Golden Castle as witnesses of history, even though they had no invitations at all, and they might not even be able to enter the square outside the gate of the Golden Castle.
With a high spirit of fighting, Philip rarely put away all his cynical and exaggerated energy, and showed a serious and solemn look. He held David's energy stone in a cymbal gold box, walked towards Anthony in the most ceremonial manner, and presented it in front of him: "Your Excellency David Duran proposes a duel to you."
Anthony just walked down the stairs and looked at the brilliance-filled pink diamond in the box. He sighed secretly in his heart and reached out to pick up the diamond. He did not neutralize the energy field as usual. Instead, just crush it into pieces.
The duel is established!
The guests exclaimed and the spotlights rang out - for some unknown reason, Justin miraculously agreed after receiving applications from many media, including the "Knight Street Journal", to enter the golden banquet. , opening the door to all journalists with legal credentials.
The entertainment reporters wrote like a master and kept records: Ranger Anthony was slightly stronger and crushed David Duran's energy stone with two fingers.
The knowledgeable superpower military attachés secretly explained to their kings and princes: "Crushing and neutralizing are actually of the same strength. They can withstand the attack of energy stones. There is no difference between strong and weak. The reason for choosing crushing Crushing rather than neutralizing is probably due to hidden considerations. Because David Duran is a hypnotic type, if he uses neutralization to come into contact with his energy stone, it is very likely that he will be greatly affected before he actually takes action. Wei Duran saw through his own energy field. This is very clever, and he is a man with rich combat experience. However, avoiding it because he is worried about being seen through in advance is a sign of lack of confidence. Because if he is strong enough, he does not need to care about being observed. , there will also be contact once it touches the energy field."
Most of the high-level superpowers who came from the aristocracy of the Acropolis despised him in their hearts: How rude! Burning harps and cooking cranes, he has no sense of elegance or style at all. He is indeed a nasty ranger!
The duels proposed at this kind of banquet are all completed on the spot at the banquet, and there is no place to discuss. And a person of Anthony David's status would not be so embarrassed that he would delay the duel until midnight. When Philip saw Anthony crushing the energy stone, he said directly: "My master will end the battle himself. I wonder if you are going to entrust an agent to fight the duel?"
There was an uproar among the guests of the Golden Castle. It cannot be said that it is completely unheard of in history, but it is also extremely rare for a superpower of David Duran's status to personally participate in a duel. The son of a rich man will not die in the market. In a duel between potentials, unless it is a last resort, they will never take risks and go into battle naked. Naturally, they will have vassals and slaves as agents. The reason is simple. Whether it is the head of a sect, the light of the acropolis who is destined to become a legend, or the upstart ranger, or a promising eighth-level potential candidate, there are countless emperors, kings, superpowers and nobles waiting behind them. If one of them is accidentally lost in a fight, Isn’t life a big joke? Not to mention a duel over a woman!
And David Duran immediately announced that he would duel in person, which was tantamount to taking the lead and pushing the situation to death. While he personally committed danger, he also completely cut off the possibility of Anthony entrusting an agent to duel. Unless Anthony, as a new upstart Ranger, can completely ignore his reputation and lose face.
And even if Anthony was being shameless, entrusting an agent to duel would actually not work. This is not only the etiquette requirement of equality of status in the duel, but also because if Anthony entrusts an agent to duel, it will be equivalent to giving up hope of victory. David Duran is recognized as a genius with great potential and a solid foundation, which determines that he basically has no opponents at the same level. Now that he has broken through the seventh level, in the entire Lighthouse Star and the entire universe, how many people can be said to have defeated him and accepted the commission? The hope of finding a seventh-level vassal or slave to defeat him can be said to be extremely slim. On the contrary, Anthony, who is also a potential candidate, would have been more happy if he simply fought the duel by himself.
This is indeed the case. Now Danyang, who has the ability to shake David or even defeat him in a head-on battle, or Rossi, who can resist David's attacks and force him, is not here. Anthony has no one to rely on, no choice but to roll up his sleeves. On.
"I accept it." He quoted an ancient German saying, "'Only freedom and love cannot be left to others.' I agree with Lord David on this point."
These words sounded extremely harsh to Philip. He endured dissatisfaction and bowed slightly as required by etiquette. He secretly curled his lips and thought to himself: "Idiot, it's 'only freedom and love cannot be left to others'." Then he stepped aside. , make way for the space between David and Anthony - since it is a direct duel between two potentials, he cannot intervene in it.
David and Anthony each took a few steps forward, and then stopped at the same place a few meters away from each other. They looked at each other with an indescribable complex psychology, and then David spoke first: "Sir Anthony, I have heard about his reputation for a long time, and I thought I would always be stingy."
"Me too." An Dingyou smiled and responded, "I have always wanted to meet Mr. David, but I really didn't expect that our first meeting would be on such a regrettable occasion."
David said nothing more and just nodded: "In any case, thank you for accepting the duel. According to the "Sacred Code", you can specify the method and witnesses of the duel."
Anthony didn't think much and asked casually: "How is the owner of this castle?"
There was another loud commotion among the guests. The owner of this castle is Pharaoh Justin Suyu! Although the host of the Golden Banquet was Pharaoh Justin, Master Su Yu never showed up at the banquet! Now this ranger proposes that the Pharaoh of Ustin be a witness. How does he know that Master Suyu is here today and will he agree to be this witness? Could it be that he had some agreement with Justin secretly? Is this true or is he just spreading suspicion?
David didn't take it seriously: "It would be best if Mr. Su Yu is willing to reward me."
Justin's prime minister didn't know whether the pharaoh was coming, and he couldn't directly say that Su Yu, the host of the banquet, was not there. Naturally, he couldn't object, so he had to order someone to report to Jose, the palace steward who had never shown up.
Tonight, Mr. Steward, who had been unlucky enough to offend Caesar, suddenly felt so worried that he had a toothache when he heard that the evil Lord Critikus had made such a terrifying request to prevent chaos in the world. But there was nothing he could do about his toothache. Jose would never have the guts to pretend not to hear him, so he had no choice but to go into the room and report to his family.
In the room, although Gu Hanhan was dragged back by Su Yu and couldn't escape for a while, she was always paying attention to what was going on outside. Through the gap in the curtain, she saw Anthony's figure flashing downstairs, and Huo Di pushed Su Yu away and stood. He got up and ran quickly to the window. But he didn't dare to rush out for a while, so he had to use the curtains to observe the situation below nervously. Then he saw that David actually asked Anthony for a duel, and Anthony actually accepted the duel. He was so anxious that he was covered in white hair and sweat. He couldn't even be happy when he heard Anthony say, "Only freedom and love cannot be left to others."
This is going crazy!
Gu Hanhan jumped up and ran out, but after only two steps, he stopped again and turned around to pull Su Yu, who was far behind him.
"Go and stop them, Mr. Su!" Gu Hanhan grabbed Su Yu's wrist, "Go and separate them. It's time to show off your awesome fighting power!"
However, Su Yu's behavior this time was very strange. He was not as quick and crisp as when he pulled Gu Hanhan back just now. Instead, he slowly fell behind Gu Hanhan. He was half-hearted, wanting to step forward but unwilling to do so. , the contradictory look of wanting to ignore it but not being willing to ignore it. Just listen to the slow voice: "Why should I care about them?"
"They're going to have a duel, idiot!" Gu Hanhan jumped up and down anxiously, "The only one who can stop them now is you! Hurry up! If it's too late, someone will be killed!"
Su Yu became even more unhappy with this reminder. "It's good to be dead, you don't need to snatch you from me!" He pouted, "Besides, what does their duel have to do with me!"
Gu Hanhan was so anxious that he went to the room. Naturally, he didn't bother to play jealous and tantrums with Su Yu. He immediately grabbed Su Yu's wrist and dragged him forward, trying to be a dominator. As for Su Yu, even more so after being pulled away by Gu Hanhan. He stood with his feet on the ground and struggled back, but refused to completely break away. So one of them had to pull forward desperately, and the other struggled to pull back, and the back and forth turned into a see-saw.
When Jose opened the door and came in, he happened to see this embarrassing scene. Mr. Steward was indeed a well-proven man. His face remained calm and his heart did not beat. He did not even raise his eyelids. He told the duel in a calm tone that he planned to invite him to be a witness.
Su Yu suddenly jumped up like a cat that had its tail stepped on: "Who wants to be their witness? No, no, let them die! Say I'm not available - no, say I'm not here!"
"I x, Mr. Su, how can you be such a narrow-minded person! Did I need you to treat my illness or do I need you to make love? Why is it so difficult to ask you for something? If I hadn't jumped out to cause trouble, I would have used you. ?" Gu Hanhan was so furious that he went up and hit Su Yu on the head, "Stop dawdling, hurry up! It's just the right time to stop them! They've been blowing so much all day long that they're unrivaled in the world, how can they wait for my sister to use it? When you are here, just move back!"
However, Su Yu seemed determined to retreat, and to show his determination to retreat, he even hugged the pillar and refused to let go.
