Chapter 345 Let me take a look
"Snapped!"
This was the sound caused by the soles of the feet stamping hard on the ground.
The sound occurred a fraction of a second after Li Ge drew his sword.
I saw that the moment Li Ge drew his sword, all the people around him seemed to be burned by fire. They reflexively stomped the ground and subconsciously moved away from him.
Including Gazef, Gaegran and Evileye, and of course Brain, who had always looked like he was dead from the beginning.
Yes.
Brian moved too.
Moreover, it moved more violently and quickly than the others, as if it had been cut by an invisible knife and bounced away like flying.
"Oh?" Li Ge raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "It seems that the instinct to feel danger still exists even if the heart is willing to give up."
These words were naturally directed at Brian.
"..."
Brian did not answer, but subconsciously made a gesture to draw the sword, with countless cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
Not only is he like this, but everyone around him also behaves similarly.
"G-Lord Gegelan..."
Clem, who was the weakest, was already pale, as if he had been greatly stimulated, and was carried by Ge Gelan in his hand.
Just now, it was Gagaran who picked up Climb out the moment he jumped away.
But in fact, Gagaran himself did this subconsciously and had no time to take care of Clem.
The evidence is that this strong female warrior is also sweating profusely like Brian.
"...Isn't this too exaggerated?" Gegelan stared at Li Ge and whispered in disbelief: "At that moment, I almost thought I was going to die."
"Evileye, what about you?"
Gegelan cried out to Ivel who was not far away from him, but he did not dare to look away from Li Ge for even half a second.
Under such circumstances, Evileye's voice, which seemed to have changed its tone, reached Gagra's ears.
"...I'm almost the same as you."
Her voice was full of fear, shock, and disbelief.
"No way? Do you even feel this way?" Gegelan suddenly showed a very forced smile and said: "This is troublesome. I originally thought that there should be many exaggerations in the rumors related to that kid. Now it seems that those rumors are not true at all, and they may even underestimate him."
"But is this possible? That boy looks a little younger than our leader!"
"Is it really possible for humans to develop such strength at this age?"
"Isn't he actually an old monster who has lived longer than you? Evileye!"
Gegelan's words did not elicit a response from Evileye.
Evileye just stared at Lige closely, his expression under the mask looking extremely uncertain.
And even she was like this, and Brian, who was deliberately targeted by Li Ge, needless to say, the hand holding the knife was trembling.
"……Who are you?"
Brian questioned Rige in a hoarse voice.
"Li Ge Brighaut." Li Ge also ignored the reactions of others and faced Brian and said, "A human being who is looked down upon by you."
"Stop joking!" Brian said again without thinking: "How can a person like you be a human being?"
Brian had to think so.
At least, he didn't think that anyone in the human race could make himself feel like he would be killed in the next second with just the action of drawing a knife.
But according to Li Ge, Brian's thoughts are completely a manifestation of arrogance.
"Why isn't it possible?"
Li Ge said calmly.
"Because we are human, so we can't be so strong?"
"Because it's so strong, it can't be human?"
"Who ordered this?"
Such words seemed to give Brian a channel to vent, which made Brian sneer.
"Isn't this an obvious fact?" Brian said, "You will know after a little comparison."
"In terms of lifespan, the lifespan of human beings can be said to be short among all races. It is generally only about a hundred years old. Not to mention compared to those species that are immortal, it is even compared to those long-lived species."
"In terms of abilities, humans are inherently far inferior to demihumans and aliens. They have no sharp claws, no hard skin, and they don't even have night vision, let alone race-specific special abilities. They have almost nothing. .”
"Even the physical abilities that have been tempered can only be compared with weak demi-humans like goblins at most. As long as the opponent is an ogre, a talented human will have to hone for about ten years. Maybe go and compare.”
"The human race as a whole is not outstanding in the eyes of any race. It can be said to be the most mediocre race. In the eyes of other alien races, it is just a moving piece of meat, which is very easy to capture."
"How strong can such a human being be?"
What appeared on Brian's face was self-deprecation, and the sadness that everything in his life had become meaningless.
"Like me, even if I practice swordsmanship, I don't know how many times it has been scratched. Facing a newly born dragon, there is still a high possibility of defeat. It is even possible that even the thorns cannot pierce the scales on the person's body."
"And what about the dragon? As long as it opens its mouth and bites, my body will be bitten off in an instant, even if the other person is just born."
"Human beings are really too weak. Even if a so-called hero exists and spends his whole life training, his strength may not be as strong as those newly born children of truly powerful races."
"Humans need to work hard to have a body, but other races are born with it. Isn't this weak?"
No one can deny Brian's statement.
Human beings are indeed not like those powerful races, with naturally strong bodies and powerful strength. Even if they try hard to exercise, there are still many alien beings whose physical abilities are not up to par.
So, to a certain extent, Brian's statement is a fact, a vulnerability that humans must face.
only……
"Because you are not born strong and cannot compare with other races, should you just accept your fate and become food for others?" Li Ge said indifferently to Brian, "It seems that you are better than I thought." Even more servile, Brian Unglaus."
"What did you say?"
Brian opened his eyes slightly.
Li Ge did not say it a second time.
"I don't know what you have seen, but I am a human being. This is a fact. It is your business to turn a blind eye. I am not interested in discussing with you the possibilities of human beings."
Li Ge slowly put away the knife, letting the sense of fatal crisis that filled everyone's hearts gradually fade away.
Then, Li Ge said this.
"Come and witness for yourself how powerful humans can become."
Ri Ge stretched out his hand towards Brian and hooked it.
"Here, let me see your knife."
Although this sentence did not have an insulting tone, it still gave Brian a feeling of being insulted.
But Rieger didn't give Brian time to get angry.
"The person standing in front of you now is not the alien race you said is inherently stronger than humans, but a human just like you."
"If you don't have the courage to swing a knife at a monster, then you should have the courage to swing a knife at the same human being, right?"
"Or are you saying that you don't even have the courage to wield a sword against your fellow tribesmen?"
"Then I have to doubt that the reason why you are so weak is not because you are human, but because you are a waste."
The indifferent words made Brian's eyes that lost focus and seemed like dead water gradually start to burn with flames.
"Swing the knife."
Li Ge's voice reached Brian's ears clearly.
"Do you have the qualifications to evaluate all human beings? Let me take a look."
Hearing this, Brian's hand holding the knife gradually tightened.
Unintentionally, out of the corner of his eye, Brian glanced at Gazef beside him.
Gazef didn't speak, he just stood there quietly, staring at him, his eyes showing emotions that Brian couldn't understand.
Is that contempt?
Or contempt?
Anyway, it must not be something good, right?
With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Brian couldn't help but recall all the efforts he had made over the years to defeat Gazef.
He was originally just an inconspicuous farmer, but by chance, he discovered that he had an extraordinary talent, that is, the talent of swordsmanship.
With the help of his talent, as long as he picks up a weapon, he will never be defeated, and he has never been injured more seriously than a scratch. It can be said that he is a veritable master and genius.
Never having experienced defeat in swordsmanship, Brian believed that he would always be on the road to victory.
It wasn't until the kingdom's royal tourney that the turning point in Brian's life occurred.
The first defeat since his birth happened to Brian at that conference.
The person who defeated him was Gazef Stronov, the current warrior captain of the kingdom and the strongest warrior known to the surrounding countries.
Brian was defeated in his hands, which made him realize that eternal victory was just his own wishful thinking, and that he was just sitting in a well and watching the sky.
For this reason, he rejected the invitations of several nobles and wanted to work hard for the first time.
Keep practicing martial arts and exercising.
Keep learning magic and improving your knowledge.
Although he was a genius, he kept working hard like a scholar. Failure made Brian embark on such a path.
In order to defeat Gazef, Brian even became a mercenary and a thief, and even joined a band of thieves for this purpose.
As long as he can avenge his shame and have stronger skills, he can abandon everything, including his reputation. This is Brian's idea.
It's a pity that such a great ambition turned into a joke due to an unexpected accident.
In that "incident", I didn't even have the slightest sense of existence, so I ran away in embarrassment and fell into despair.
Even now, this despair still clings to Brian, leaving him breathless.
However, the opponent is a human being, and his powerful enemy is also present, so do he still lack the courage to wield a sword?
When this thought came to his mind, Brian had already taken an offensive stance before he came to a conclusion.
"...Don't regret it."
The vicious words came out of his mouth and were clearly audible.
Upon seeing this, Gazef's eyes lit up, and Gagra and the others couldn't help but stare at Brian.
At this moment, Brian's eyes were finally no longer filled with deathly ashes, but instead had a bit of fighting spirit burning in his eyes.
Only at this moment, he was Brian Anglaus, the genius swordsman who could compete with Gazef.
"bring it on."
Li Ge raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his words were quite concise.
The air began to feel heavy.
The battle is about to break out.
