As they ventured deeper into the Yanlong Canyon, the temperature became increasingly extreme, now reaching tens of millions of degrees Celsius. Even Shubi needed to unleash her spirit power to protect herself from being melted by the intense heat.

Luo Hao placed his hand on Shubi's shoulder, enveloping her body in Armament Haki to prevent her from being harmed by the environment.

Hugh remained silent, saying nothing, simply following Luo Hao as he slowly descended.

Finally, we reached the bottom.

Hughie spoke.

"There's nothing here, so what's the point of you coming here?"

"It's not that there's anything here; it's that my heart brought me here. If you ask me what I've gained, then... it's happiness! Happiness arising from modest achievements."

Luo Hao knew that Shubi would ask this question, so he had already prepared the answer he wanted.

This was his previous goal, and today was the day to achieve it. Although he knew he could do it, he was still unwilling to give up until he actually did it.

Even though I knew it was going to happen, I was still very happy when I succeeded.

Chapter 74 Artoria's Live Stream

“I’ve wanted to come here for a long time. Being able to set foot here means that I have successfully established myself in this world, and I am very happy about that.”

"..."

Hugh remained silent, a blank expression on her face, and shook her head, indicating that she couldn't understand.

However, she knew that this was a manifestation of Luo Hao's "heart".

What she couldn't understand was why, even though she had come down with Luo Hao, she couldn't feel the sensations he described.

"Because this is not what you want; you are just keeping me company."

Luo Hao rubbed Shubi's head and said.

"..."

Hughie shook her head blankly.

"You don't understand now, but you will eventually. When you decide to start searching for your 'heart,' you are destined to find it; it's just a matter of time."

What belongs to you, even if you can't find it for a while, you will eventually find it.

Hugh already has a "heart," she just needs to find it.

Luo Hao picked up the adorable, thoughtful Shubi and slowly flew upwards, intending to leave the canyon.

Having achieved his goal, he had no reason to stay any longer.

They flew quickly out of the canyon and, holding Shubi's hand, returned to the tribal encampment.

Kloni quickly handed the registered handbook to Luo Hao, who then began a simple grouping process based on his understanding of Devil Fruit abilities.

The tribe has more than 100 members, who are simply divided into ten groups. The various abilities are balanced so that each group has a variety of combat methods to deal with different types of enemies.

[Artoria]: "Everyone, the selection of the king is about to begin!"

[Artoria has started a live stream.]

"...Let's hand these over to everyone! Let them get some rest first, training starts tomorrow."

Luo Hao handed the assigned list to Chroni, instructing her to distribute it to the tribe members below, while he himself entered the live stream to watch Artoria's day of choosing a king.

Speaking of which, he's only been back for less than a day, and Artoria's side has already started choosing a king. I wonder what the time flow ratio is between here and where Artoria is.

……

Camelot, Britain.

At this moment, the outskirts of Camelot had become the focus of all of Britain's attention, with knights and lords from all over coming to witness the ceremony.

Today is the day that the court mage, the great sage Merlin, prophesied the appearance of the "King of Britain's Mandate of Heaven."

Today, the king of languages ​​will draw this sword of language on the outskirts of Camelot.

Countless knights and lords, clinging to a sliver of hope, flocked to the sword, the legendary Sword of the Chosen, hoping to ascend to the throne and become the King of Britain.

Artoria then came here with her sworn brother, the knight Kai.

Looking at her teacher, Melie, standing beside the Sword of Royal Selection, and the knights who were eager to try their skills, Artoria couldn't help but feel her blood boil.

When the time is right, she will draw the Sword of the Chosen and ascend the throne of the Queen of Britain, witnessed by many knights.

At such moments, she also hopes that friends can be there to witness them with her.

[Luo Hao has joined the live stream.]

[“Psychological Mastery” has joined the live stream.]

Esdeath has joined the live stream.

"Choose a king!"

Misaki Shokuhou stared intently at the screen, not daring to blink.

She was thrilled to be able to witness firsthand the legendary King Arthur pulling the sword from the stone and becoming king.

In contrast to the excited and expectant Misaki Shokuhou, Esdeath showed absolutely no interest.

Becoming a king is nothing to her; what does it have to do with her? What she cares about more is the upcoming war, conquering the Red Line, and the campaign against the Celestial Dragons and the remnants of the World Government.

I came to watch purely to take the opportunity to see what was going on in Artoria's world.

As for Luo Hao?

"Choose the King's Sword!"

He chuckled lightly, a hint of teasing in his voice.

The biggest deception in the entire Arthurian legend, woven by the great liar Merlin, well... this world is a deception created by Merlin.

On the surface, it seems that everyone has a chance to draw their sword.

But in reality, the truth is incredibly shady.

The sword was made by Merry, and the winner was already chosen...

The purpose of holding such a grand event and attracting so many people to watch is purely to increase fame and use these people as stepping stones to help the unknown Artoria take off.

When the time comes, they'll publicize it, saying that the sword that so-and-so, the great knight, couldn't draw was pulled out by Artoria.

The publicity effect was immediate.

This reduces the difficulty for Artoria to inherit the throne.

After all, what a king fears most is that even his subjects don't know who he is.

Such a king is no better than a puppet.

Once they have a certain level of fame, they can use various hype tactics to win public support.

For example, in the Legend of King Arthur, the character who travels around doing good deeds easily wins the hearts of the people.

Luo Hao didn't dislike this method; on the contrary, he supported it. He never cared about any behind-the-scenes manipulation or fairness; the important thing was to achieve his goal.

Did the "Election of the King" achieve its purpose? Obviously, it did, allowing Artoria to successfully ascend the throne and gain a foundation for further development.

Therefore, in Luo Hao's view, this is a good idea.

It doesn't matter whether it's despicable or not.

However, according to Luo Hao's guess, anyone with the Red Dragon Physique should be able to pull out this sword, except that in Britain, only Artoria possesses the Red Dragon Physique.

So, Luo Hao suddenly became a little curious about 4.6. If he went there himself, would he be able to pull out this sword?

Of course, he wouldn't go looking for trouble.

Pulling out this broken sword disrupted Meli's plans. Artoria could not become queen, yet with that kind of personality, she was bound to face hardship.

As the culprit, and even as Artoria's friend, he naturally couldn't turn a blind eye; otherwise, it would cause him immense trouble.

Let things develop naturally; there's no need to create any drama.

I'm quite busy right now, so I shouldn't cause any trouble.

As Luo Hao pondered this, he stroked Shubi's little head in his arms, making a very content expression.

Meanwhile, the scenes in my mind proceeded normally, and after Meryl's opening remarks, the king selection ceremony began directly.

Chapter 75 The Royal Selection Ceremony Begins

Artoria's gaze swept around, where renowned knights stood in the front row, and a few bards surrounded the circle, quietly awaiting the birth of a legend.

Following Merry's announcement, the knights fell into a brief silence.

The knights, on whom such high hopes were placed, looked at each other, their gazes finally settling on one person.

On Gawain, who is known as the "Knight of the Sun".

As the most renowned knight in the area, he should naturally be the first to step forward and try.

However, this burly knight, clad in silver armor, seemed unaware of the current situation.

He stood to the side with a hearty smile, watching Shi Zhongjian without moving, showing no intention of stepping forward.

[Psychological Analysis]: "Who is this guy?! Why is he so naive?"

In response to Misaki Shokuhou's question, Artoria replied softly, "This is the famous Sun Knight, Gawain, who has a record of defeating thousands of barbarians single-handedly. He is very renowned."
