Chapter 178 (1/2)
On theof the third day of the war outside Thunder City, the soldiers on the wall of Thunder City saw a strange scene
A white horse galloped towards the city wall, froht in an old and black armor was on the horse The arht did not wear his helradually approached, his facial features became clearer He looked like he was about forty years old His facial hair1 was thick,it hard to see his face
The knight rode the horse and stopped about a hundred paces fro a sword The sword also looked like it had been used for many years Even the leather scabbard had lost its color fro
The knight stood by his horse and shouted towards the city wall, ”I a from the Roland Temple! I request to speak to the Duke of the Tulip Family!”
His voice transmitted very clearly froh he had not shouted, all the soldiers on the wall could hear hih the wall and into the city
At thatinside the wall He quickly went up the hen he suddenly heard that voice co from outside
Sieg looked at the Roland knight below the wall, and shouted, ”Who are you?”
The knight raised his sword high and repeated, ”I a of the Roland Temple! I request to speak to the Duke of the Tulip Family!”
Rody frowned and shouted, ”I a, what is the matter? If you came here to ask us to surrender, thenarrows!”
Knight Fielding smiled faintly ”Your Excellency Duke of the Tulip Family, I did not coht of the Holy Knight Regiht, I respectfully challenge Your Excellency to a battle! That person is my subordinate If I defeat you in battle, I want him released”
Before Rody could speak, Sieg had already shouted, ”The Roland e our Duke?”
Fielding lightly said, ”In the na Your Excellency Duke of the Tulip Fae, please release my comrade!”
Sieg sneered, ”Nonsense! What do you ht? Your Roland arhts If each one of you just coes Our Excellency the Duke, then he would not have time to eat or sleep!”
Those words h So and loudly cursed at him
Knight Fielding's expression rery or embarrassed Instead, he still spoke in his calm tone, ”Your Excellency Duke of the Tulip Fa, a Paladin2 from the Temple of the Roland Continent! Ae you?”
Paladin?
Those words were very clear even though the people on the ere still cursing and noisy
When he said he was a Paladin, the derisive laughter immediately stopped
A Paladin was the best ahts
When Fielding realized that the noise on the wall had quietened down, he sneered, ”Your Excellency Duke of the Tulip Faht down here below the wall I wonder whether the bravest and the most renowned person on the Radiant Continent, dare accept e?”
”Be quiet!”
Involuntarily, all the Ereat and handsome Duke of the Tulip Family
It was already ingrained in the hearts of the soldiers that their Duke of the Tulip Family was a fierce and brave man That was even htning God's Whip to charge and fight their enemy on the battlefield They admired their commander from the bottom of their hearts They worshi+ped him as the God of the Battlefield
Sieg, as after all more experienced, could not help but whisper, ”Your Excellency the Duke, that person claimed to be a Paladin You are the commander of an army and you do not need to care about thee A personal duel between the two of you holds noBesides that, your opponent is a Paladin Even if you ht be injured You are our Supre responsibility”
Rody understood Sieg's reasoning After all, Rody was then a Supree him but could he defeat a Paladin?
A Paladin of the Roland Continent was equivalent to the Sacred Swordsman from the Radiant Continent Even if he could defeat that Paladin, Rody kneould definitely get injured Moreover, the outcome was not certain
Of course, if he were to win, it would be better However, it would not be good to get injured especially since he still needed to fight a war and there werehe needed to do If he were to lose, the morale of the army would also drop
It was not advisable to take such a risk
Rody was silent when Knight Fielding spoke again
”Your Excellency Duke of the Tulip Fa the battle the day before yesterday I heard that you were extremely valiant on the battlefield and it piqued my interest At the Roland Continent, Miss Muse of the Temple talked about your valor I am very fascinated by such rumor Now you have also captured one of my coe you! I know you are the coht be doubtful of ardless whether you win or lose, I will order the Holy Knights of the Roland Continent not to interfere in this battle Is this condition fair?”
Rody gritted his teeth Seeing the surrounding soldiers looking at him, in anticipation and admiration, he felt excited Besides that, the other party had just prohts from battle That could be considered fair
The soldiers beside hi, as below the city wall, for being arrogant, for rating hi suicidal
Sieg, as still by Rody's side, whispered, ”Your Excellency You don't need to care about him Just order the soldiers to shoot some arrows and chase his We will also need you to strategize”
Rody sighed He reluctantly suppressed his impulse and was about to refuse
Fielding then sneered from below the city wall ”Your Excellency Duke of the Tulip Fae? You dare not accept the challenge from a warrior? Is your bravery just a ru”
