chapter 12 Challenge
Chapter 12 Challenge
"This knife!" Through the amplification of his ability, Liuli's crisp voice reached all the Montita grassland people present, "If you have no objection, I will take it away!"
When Liuli's voice just came out, the bustling crowd had no reaction. After all, at this time, all kinds of sounds would come to almost everyone's ears. In this festival at the foot of the Holy Mountain, gambling on bulls and sheep, weapons and even population never stopped. At this time, most people probably think that such a tender voice should be another martial arts genius in a tribe.
However, the priest on the altar saw the truth of the matter - the holy sword that had not been pulled out by any grassland warrior for hundreds of years - the inheritance sword. At this time, it was already held in his hand by a little girl wearing refined hunting suit but with silver-white hair that was longer than her height.
Moreover, looking at the little girl, she did not have the symptoms recorded in the parchment book about the inheritance sword. Even if she was recognized by the inheritance sword, the warriors would go through a mad period of at least a few days or more than a month. Especially when they just got the knife, those warriors would often unable to help attacking any moving objects around them. Only in this way can they survive the initial inheritance test of the inheritance sword. However, this little girl had only picked up the knife steadily and stood quietly on the stone platform where the inheritance sword was originally worshipping the inheritance sword.
Although he was a little angry, the holy sword of the grassland people actually chose an alien race, or even a delicate little girl, but the ancient tradition must be followed. This little girl is the choice of the holy sword, but the grassland people also have it to test whether she has the ability to have the qualification to have the holy sword!
Moreover, the fact that this little girl was able to come to the altar without any grassland warrior or the priest sect, which is also a first-class master, could also show that her strength was definitely inconsistent with her appearance.
"Holy Sword, he has chosen his new master!" The priest with obvious status on the altar announced loudly, "Warriors of the grassland! If you believe in your strength more, then please come on stage to challenge her! If no warrior can defeat her after three duels, then we must recognize the new master of the holy Sword!"
At the same time as the high priest announced, the remaining priests lit the bonfire on the altar. It was originally because the sky had just become darker in the evening, but it became brighter again.
"Well? Why did the bonfire be lit at this time?" Some people from the grassland who were slightly far away from the altar asked strangely to the people around them.
"It seems that my accidental behavior was just right~" Liuli smiled and took a few steps to the high priest and saluted him, "For some reason, I want to take it away. What else do I need to do except accept the challenge of the grassland warriors? Oh, I almost forgot to say that my name is Beren Casfil von Einz Beren. Please take care of me for the first time."
"Although the original order was not like this," said the high priest, "but now that you have been recognized by the Holy Sword, all you need to face is the challenge the grassland warriors have against you. Miss Einzberen."
This name... seems to have been seen somewhere? However, judging from her appearance, she looks neither like the Kaoqi nor the Sophie benefactor... Could she be a resident among the mountains?
The spread of news can be very fast. Just between Liuli and the high priest’s short conversation, the news of the Holy Knife’s choice of master had reached the ears of every grassland man at the foot of the Holy Mountain. The originally scattered crowd began to gradually surge towards the altar.
"Who is it that doesn't follow the rules!" At this time, the first challenger appeared.
He was a strong man who had risen more than two meters high. His naked upper body had several scars obviously scratched by wild wolf and sharp sword wounds. However, these scars could not cover up the strong man's powerful muscles. On his neck, he also carried a necklace made of the sharpest teeth of the wild wolf. On the prairie, only a wolf killed by one person himself could pull out the tooth as a glorious spoil.
"High Priest! Where did that timid guy go?" Walking onto the altar, from the perspective of a strong man, Liuli was blocked by the high priest's tall figure. "How can such a guy be recognized by the holy sword!"
"Maybe...I'm really timid..." Liuli walked forward and came to the center of the altar, "Because there are some things that I can't lose!"
"How could there be a little girl here?" the strong man laughed, "Little girl! This is not a place you should stay. Come back to your mother's arms to eat breasts!"
"So, this uncle covered in scars." Liuli said with a smile, "Are you ready to give up this challenge?"
As he said that, Liuli held the dark red bead tears in front of her and took a strange position.
"Holy Sword!" Seeing the "weak" Liuli take out the dark red beads and tears, the strong man laughed and said, "It's really a blessing from our ancestors! It seems that the Holy Sword will definitely be my treasure! Hahaha!"
"I have forgotten what I have learned before. Moreover, I always unconsciously want to try those new martial arts." Liuli thought to herself, "But... to be safe, the kendo I learned before is better than using those that I have not used before? It seems that I can only slowly get familiar with those new things in the competition."
"It seems that both sides are ready." The high priest retreated to the edge of the altar and announced loudly, "Then, the first challenge begins now!"
"Hmph! Little girl, do you want me to give you a few moves to make you enjoy the holy sword!" Although the strong man said in a contemptuous tone, his movements were not vague at all. The slightly tense muscles made him in a state of ready to go. Whether it was attack or defense, he made good preparations. The saber in his hand, which was roughly crafted but almost as tall as Liuli, was also protected in front of him. In the eyes of everyone, the petite Liuli seemed to be as heavy as the saber in the strong man's hand. If Liuli had not actually held the dark red bead tears in his hand, probably no one would believe that Liuli could be recognized by the holy sword.
"Do you want me to make a few moves? Thank you very much, uncle~!" Liuli slowly walked towards the strong man, and stretched out her hands from time to time, as if she was doing warm-up exercises. In fact, Liuli was taking advantage of this time to get a little familiar with those strange martial arts.
"Do you still have to do warm-up exercises? Little girl, you should wave the holy sword a few more times, then surrender obediently, and hand over the holy sword to me!" said the strong man loudly, "Look at your thin and tender body, if I accidentally get hurt, it will be unbeautiful! Haha!"
When Liuli came to a place where Liuli was only about two meters away from the strong man, the strong man even reached out and was about to be able to use his big sword to cut Liuli, and stopped.
"What's wrong! Are you going to surrender?"
"Thank you~ Uncle."
As he said that, Liuli suddenly started moving at a speed that everyone felt was completely incredible.
"I'm not going to... surrender!"
"snort!"
Seeing Liuli's speed, the strong man was slightly surprised. However, the strong man was not a pure reckless man. The moment Liuli moved, he slightly forwarded his saber and blocked Liuli, who rushed straight towards him, and most of the attack routes.
Xin Luoan's Moon Empty Shadow... It seems that it must be practiced for a long time before it can be used proficiently. In the past, it was only possible to use it occasionally with magical assistance... However, there are still many temporary alternatives!
I saw Liuli rushing straight towards the strong man. The knife in her hand did not attack the strong man, but stabbed the ground. With the help of this fulcrum, Liuli's body drew an arc and came to the side of the strong man.
What a pity... Is it true that I can't get behind me directly...
If he was just beside him, he was still within the range of the strong man's strict guarding. Therefore, Liuli had to use the last bit of power to rotate and retreat a few steps back and leave the strong man's counterattack range.
"Little girl, your speed is pretty good!" The strong man turned around and faced Liuli head-on again. "But the martial arts... are too rough! If you are only this level, then I would accept the holy sword without hesitation!"
Without more words, Liuli moved again. However, this time, Liuli did not rush directly to the strong man, but circled around the strong man, looking for the flaws of the strong man in constant tentative attacks.
However, such painless attacks are really useless to the people of the grassland who are known for their bravery. A strong man is like a solid boulder on the grassland. No matter how violent the wind and rain are, he can remain unmoved.
"Although your speed is much faster than the wild wolf! Your attack is not even one-tenth of the wild wolf!" said the strong man, "The wild wolf can only cause harm to me by its number! But you are just scratching me!"
Although I really can't catch up with this speed, that little girl couldn't last long. At that time, it was time for me to fight back! The strong man thought.
After continuing to test for a while, Liuli rushed towards the strong man again. At this time, as long as the strong man was in front of him and squatted down slightly, he could make Liuli's attack return without success. As for the martial arts that Liuli used at the beginning that he was around him, Liuli did not master it skillfully... Moreover, as long as Liuli could not surround behind him in an instant, it would not pose too much threat to the strong man.
However, the feeling coming from the knife was different from the previous attacks. Unlike the previous attacks, this time, a stronger force finally came from the strong man's sword. Looking at Liuli's expression, it seemed that she had used all her strength.
"Do you want to compete with me? Do you think you have a chance of winning?" The strong man used one arm to block Liuli's attack and turned into a counterattack.
However, Liuli was not pushed out by the strong man's brute force, but increased the strength in his hands again, and competed with the strong man for a little while. Then, suddenly, he shortened his body and put away his knife and came under the strong man's knife. The strong man who was exerting his force slowed down a little.
With just a little gap, Liuli burst out at a faster speed than ever before. She stepped on the strong man's slightly bent thighs and jumped on the strong man's shoulders. The dark red bead tears in Liuli's hand were already crossed to the strong man's neck.
"You lost~ Uncle." After staying on the strong man's shoulder for a few seconds, letting everyone see their movements, Liuli jumped back to the altar and said to the strong man with a smile.
"The first challenge was chosen by the Holy Knife, Miss Einzberen won!" the high priest announced.
"I... lost." The strong man turned around and walked down the altar.
