Chapter 862 Breaking the other party’s legend

This is a very grand palace.

The palace does not appear to be magnificent, but the walls, floors, and ceilings all have a metallic texture, making the palace seem to be transformed into a chalk fortress, which is not only majestic, but also solemn.

A middle-aged knight walked down the corridor of the palace, making clearly audible footsteps on the ground.

The figure of the middle-aged knight is not that tall and burly, and is even a little thin, but the momentum he exudes is extremely thick, making people vaguely feel that his thin figure has swelled a bit.

There was a sword on his waist. Although the sword was in a sheath, judging from the style, it should be a flame-shaped sword.

The knight leaned one hand on the hilt of the sword on his waist, and swung his hand gently with strong steps, like a general who was about to charge into the battlefield, full of momentum.

Not long after, the knight came to a room.

"coming?"

As the knight entered the room, a voice immediately rang out.

Upon closer inspection, this room seems to be used for offices. The interior decoration is quite luxurious, but the most eye-catching thing is the long desk located in the deepest part.

On the desk, countless parchments were piled up into piles of documents, with quills, seals, ink and other items scattered beside them.

A noble man in his 30s was sitting at his desk processing documents. When he saw the middle-aged knight walking in, he immediately stopped what he was doing and gave him a calm smile.

"What are you looking for me for?"

Looking at the elegant young master in front of him who was extremely gorgeous in appearance and temperament, the knight's words were very rude.

Even though he knew that the identity of the man in front of him was not simple, and could even be said to be one of the most influential noble beings in Queen Thisis's kingdom today, the knight was not too polite.

This is naturally rude.

If it had been anyone else, he might have been punished for his attitude.

But the knight was obviously not among them. The noble man sitting at the desk didn't seem to care about this and picked up the nearest piece of parchment.

"We are in trouble." The noble master said concisely and concisely without mincing words: "This is the latest information jointly presented by the nobles headed by the Fanad family. Come and take a look."

With that said, the noble prince handed the parchment to the middle-aged knight.

The middle-aged knight was not polite, took the parchment directly, and started reading.

After reading this, the middle-aged knight frowned.

"The mysterious magician with the sword master's attendants became the escort of the "doll", and almost all the people sent by the various forces were wiped out? "

This news surprised the middle-aged knight.

"I know you are very suspicious." Your Excellency crossed his hands and placed them under his chin, saying, "But this is news that has been jointly verified by many forces, and its accuracy is still guaranteed."

"But now I doubt the accuracy of this." The middle-aged knight threw down the parchment and said unceremoniously: "What kind of magician can let a sword master be his attendant? Just based on what the intelligence mentioned , is he a tactical-level magician?"

Obviously, the middle-aged knight was disdainful of this statement.

The Sword Master is the highest combat power of a country and the strongest individual weapon. His status is no less than that of a strategic magician or even a royal child of a big country. Even the king of a country has to show courtesy to him, unless necessary. , will never be offended easily.

Such a person, let alone serving as a squire for a tactical-level magician, or even serving as a squire for the king of a great country, would cause nine percent resistance in his heart, and the remaining one would only want to refuse under special circumstances.

For example, the Shadow Sword Master of the Kingdom of Jinas was a sword master trained by the royal family. Everything he had was given to him by the royal family. Naturally, he could not refuse, and he willingly protected the royal family and the king.

But what about the other sword masters?

Except for the one-eyed swordsman Dihart, who was born a slave and voluntarily gave up all his possessions because he was appreciated and redeemed, the rest of the swordsmen were all born as counts at worst. Although they would serve the country, they would not unconditionally obey the royal orders and were extremely independent. powerful.

Now, someone actually told the middle-aged knight that a majestic sword master actually worked as a squire for a tactical-level magician?

Can the price drop?

"But this is a fact. Even you and I are not willing to admit it." The noble master was not surprised by the knight's performance, and said: "I guess that should be a newly promoted sword master. He was already a sword master before he became a sword master. The attendant of the tactical-level magician has now been promoted to the sword master, but the contract between her and the tactical-level magician has not yet ended, so she continues to follow the mysterious tactical-level magician as an attendant. .”

Hearing this, the middle-aged knight felt somewhat relieved.

If that's the case, it's understandable.

If the equal contract between the magician and the servant is not considered to be suspended under special circumstances, it will only be considered over when the conditions concluded when the contract between the two parties are completed.

For example, a swordsman offers to be loyal to a magician for ten years on the condition that the magician must complete one thing for him. Then when the magician completes the task, if the ten years have not yet come, Naturally, the swordsman cannot leave directly. He must fulfill the promise he made before the contract between them is completed.

Even if the swordsman's strength improves before the ten years expire, he must continue to fulfill the contract.

The noble master and others speculated that under such circumstances, the sword master was promoted to sword master before the contract ended, so he continued to follow a tactical-level magician as an attendant.

If the other party was only a senior swordsman before signing a contract with the tactical-level magician, being a squire to a tactical-level magician would not be considered a price reduction.

Of course, generally speaking, even if a senior swordsman wants to become a squire, he will choose from a strategic-level magician, unless the other person is rich or noble, and his status is extremely extraordinary.

The middle-aged knight thought of this possibility and asked the noble young master.

"Have you investigated the origin of that mysterious tactical-level magician?"

The answer to this question is naturally yes.

"I have sent people to investigate, but even if I searched all the countries in the northern part of the continent, I still couldn't find a tactical-level magician named Lige Brighaut." The noble man shook his head and said: "On the contrary, it is in the middle of the continent. There is a rumor over there that the protagonist in the rumor has the same name as this mysterious tactical-level magician."

The noble prince's words made the middle-aged knight narrow his eyes.

"Are you talking about the Thunder Sword Master who has been spreading rumors among various countries in the mainland in the past year?"

Of course the knight had heard of that man.

There is no way, the other party's name is too bluffing.

The youngest sword master in history at only 17 years old, he is said to be defeated by the flash of lightning. He set up a ring in the capital of King Jinas and fought thousands of games every day without losing. There are even rumors that he defeated Zhenguan Sword Master Thunder. In recent times, it has been rumored that Vin Maples single-handedly ended the turmoil in that great country and suppressed the strongest old monster in the Kingdom of Jinas.

The middle-aged knight remembered that the other party's name was Lige Brighaut.

"...Could it be me?"

The middle-aged knight's eyes showed a burning desire to fight.

"If it were me, what would you like to do?"

The noble prince seemed to have read through the middle-aged knight's thoughts, and spoke with a half-smile.

"Does that need to be said?" The knight snorted coldly and said, "I don't believe there are such evil people in this world. It is outrageous enough to become a sword master at the age of only 17, and now it is said that the opponent's strength is enough to suppress a person. The country’s strongest combat power, I will never accept it unless I test it myself.”

"...In the past, I would have thought the same thing as you." Your Excellency restrained his smile and said solemnly: "But now, the entire Queen Kingdom of Thistis has clearly realized that this world There is such a monstrous person who can aspire to be the strongest at a younger age than anyone else."

"For example, that Valkyrie."

As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged knight's fists immediately tightened, and the fighting spirit in his eyes turned into humiliation.

In his mind, a figure appeared uncontrollably.

It was a girl who looked like ice.

The girl was very young, at least relative to him.

He is 45 years old this year, but the girl is only 25 years old this year, a full 20 years younger than him, but it puts great pressure on him.

Even now, the knight still remembers that incident.

At that time, the girl was even younger than she is now, but she had already become the youngest sword master in the Queen Kingdom of Thistis, and even the youngest sword master in the history of the Queen Kingdom. Even the legendary first queen was in Those who were older than her became sword masters.

The Queen's Kingdom became a sensation because of this young girl's amazing talent.

Countless people were shocked by the strength of this girl.

Especially when the girl single-handedly challenged two domestic sword masters and defeated them, her reputation in the Queen's country suddenly reached its peak.

And when the queen's country-holding artifact that had been passed down from generation to generation was pulled out by the girl and became her sword, she was destined to become another legend in the history of this country.

After all, the last person to show great power with the artifact of ruling the country was the first-generation queen.

Based on this alone, if the girl was the princess of Queen Thistis' royal family, then she could directly sit on the throne and become the new queen, and the Queen's Kingdom would not be what it is now.

But even so, the girl is also called the Valkyrie. She is obviously younger than everyone else, but she has a faint tendency to be regarded as the strongest in the kingdom, and she is like a sea-fixing needle.

It can be said that 90% of all the praise for the Sword Master in Queen Thistis's kingdom has fallen on this girl.

What about him?

Unfortunately, all he was left with was shame.

Because he was one of the sword masters who lost to that girl.

"If all the rumors are true, it proves that Lige Brighaut is an even more evil existence than that Valkyrie." Your Excellency sighed: "Such a monster has been around for hundreds of thousands of years. Not even one of them has appeared, but now two appear in one breath, each one more evil than the other. I really don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse.”

Hearing this, the middle-aged knight clenched his fists tighter.

"Anyway, I will never admit it without a trial." He said coldly: "Then what? Is it me?"

"Probably not." Your Excellency said without hesitation: "According to the information spread by the outside world, the Thunder Sword Master was staying in Yerufu, the capital of the Kingdom of Jinas a few days ago."

"The distance between the Kingdom of Jinas and the Queen Kingdom of Thistis is so far that even the fastest caravan would take more than two months to reach it."

"So, it is impossible for the other party to come to the Queen Kingdom of Thistis in just a few days."

"It should just happen to have the same name, otherwise the explanation wouldn't be clear."

The noble prince's analysis made the middle-aged knight nod his head with regret or disappointment.

Of course, the knight still retorted verbally.

"Didn't I say that Lige Brighaut is still a tactical-level or even strategic-level magician? Maybe the other party has a way to come to the Queen's Kingdom in such a short period of time?"

"Furthermore, rumors also say that there are more than one Sword Master attendants under Lige Brighaut."

"This rumor is completely consistent with the current mysterious magician, right?"

A mysterious magician whose origins are unclear. Since the other party does not exist among the northern countries of the continent, it is very likely that he comes from other places on the continent.

In addition, the application also stated that the other party was a particularly young boy, which was consistent with the rumors.

...The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

The noble prince also frowned and thought seriously.

Indeed, the characteristics in all aspects are so consistent that it is not impossible that the two are the same person.

However, your young master is still not willing to believe that the rumored evildoer will suddenly come to the Queen Kingdom of Thistis.

If it was really him, what was he doing in the Queen Kingdom of Thistis?

Also, why did he choose to escort the "doll" to Urvashi?

What's his purpose?

Or...is it the Kingdom of Jinas that has a special purpose?

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in your eyes.

"If it were really him, things would be in trouble." The noble master said solemnly: "He himself is already very strong. If there are two more female sword master attendants under his command, we may have to face three more. Juggernaut.”

"Not necessarily." The middle-aged knight retorted: "How many sword masters are there in the Kingdom of Jinas? I don't believe they will allow that young man to bring two sword masters to the north of the mainland."

"That's right." The noble prince relaxed his frown, then raised his eyes, looked at the middle-aged knight, and said: "No matter what, the opponent is very strong. This is for sure. Efanard and other families With such strength, it is no longer possible to stop the opponent."

"So, I hope you can go there in person and meet the mysterious magician."

"There is no need to conflict with the other party. Try to let the other party retreat before the difficulties arise."

"At least, we can't let the "doll" come to the Queen's Palace, otherwise we will be in trouble. "

These words made the middle-aged knight narrow his eyes.

"Okay." The other party immediately replied: "I will go there myself."

He really wanted to see if the other party was that evildoer.

If so, he wouldn't mind breaking the other's legend.
