The Warrior of Love

Possessing the "Hyūsei Taisui" and another simulated star-creation map that he was born with... In a sense, His Highness is even more powerful than Izayoi Sakamaki.

However, despite such extraordinary talent, he is limited by his background, so that now he has to rely on others and live cautiously... If Jiang Liu knew about this, he would probably laugh out loud.

"Wait a moment, Your Highness—"

Aurora spoke up to stop His Highness, and just as the boy closed his mouth, he saw a piece of space in the venue suddenly twisted.

Just like watercolors of different colors mixed together, the distorted realm presented a bizarre scene, and the space was torn apart, from which emerged a guy with extremely exaggerated clothes, looking like a clown.

When he saw him, the corner of His Highness's eye twitched slightly, but the next moment it was replaced with his usual confident and calm smile.

"Maxwell, you're back."

"Yeah...what, the atmosphere is so weird."

The clown looked at the people around him, leaving out Aurora and Grudge. Ling simply turned her head away, which made him very unhappy.

"Are you saying bad things about me? That's really too much, everyone."

"There is no such thing."

His Highness laughed and said, "Everyone is just worried about how to deal with the upcoming contestants. I think this gift game will attract elites from various forces. There must be people among them that we can't deal with... Especially that extraordinary monster."

"Ha! I thought it was something else!"

Maxwell snorted disdainfully: "You think too much. With your strength, you would not be sent to the front line. I have already decided on the venue and the competition process. You just need to follow the steps and don't make trouble."

"you--"

"bell!"

His Highness shook his head slightly, then said gently to Maxwell: "What kind of checkpoints can really play a screening role?"

"of course."

Maxwell said proudly: "You will know when you see it."

Naturally, everyone had no shortage of props for remote viewing, and they immediately projected the outermost area of ​​the competition venue onto the smooth wall, where they could see rows of people doing something in an orderly manner.

"Are they... drawing their swords?" Ling asked hesitantly.

His Highness also nodded with a hint of surprise.

But Maxwell curled his lips and said, "Don't you understand? [The one who pulls out this sword will be the chosen king of Britain] - this is the reappearance of that myth. Only qualified contestants can truly enter our "maze."

Chapter 992: The Queen's Favorite

By the way, the invitation letter did not specify a specific location, it just said it was at the ruins of the Brilliant Flame City, but almost all the contestants found the right place.

Because in this black and red wilderness that was literally "razed to the ground", a huge man-made building appeared at some point in time!

The continuous city walls enclose a huge space in a regular geometric shape. If you fly up to the sky and observe from above, you will find that this is a regular hexagonal building. Inside the hexagon is the second high wall, which is a standard circle with a skylight similar to that of a small garden city on it, making it impossible to see what is going on inside.

It occupies almost all of the area of ​​the original Huangyan Capital, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is big enough to be a city!

Just half a month ago, this place was still a wilderness with nothing. This magnificent building seemed to have been moved here by someone.

Judging from the vines and mosses covering the outside of the wall, it doesn't look like something that was just built...

Either it was the power of the organizer's authority, or there were more than four-digit strong men who transferred it over... or both.

In short, no matter what, the organizer has provided such a large venue, which shows his sincerity.

Of course, not everyone can enter this huge competition venue, and most people will stop at the door.

Because just in front of the towering stone gate, there is a seemingly ordinary small stone platform, which is only two meters square and has two steps.

On the stone platform, there was a gorgeous knight's sword with a golden hilt and covered with gems. On the first stone step was written in an ancient language:

[This sword is the proof of the hero]

There are quite a few communities gathered here, and naturally there are many smart people among them. Combining this sword with the closed door, it is easy to come to a conclusion:

The so-called "hero's certificate" is the qualification to enter the gate and participate in this gift game.

How to obtain the "Hero's Certificate"?

When we think of a very famous myth, the answer is obvious.

At first everyone was very cautious and no one acted rashly, but when the first person climbed the stone steps and grasped the golden hilt, everyone's eyes were focused there.

The man took a deep breath, and his strong arms suddenly tensed up.

"ah!"

It can be seen that this guy is an obvious power athlete. Under normal circumstances, even if it is a thousand pounds, he can lift it with ease.

However, now he gathered all his strength, but the sword did not move at all. Not to mention being pulled out, it did not even shake.

"Tsk!"

Under the gazes of so many people, the old man's face turned red. With an indignant look on his face, he hurried down and merged into the crowd, causing some mocking laughter.

However, his action was like opening a shackle, and soon the second and third people came up to challenge the sword... but they were immediately defeated.

When the fourteenth person also became dejected, there was finally no more ridicule or mockery in the venue, because everyone realized that even if the sword-drawing ceremony set up by the organizer was not as difficult as the "Sword in the Stone" in the original, it was enough to make most of the people present return home empty-handed.

By the way, because the invitation is open to the entire middle and lower classes, and there is the huge temptation of solar sovereignty, even though the cost of cross-regional transmission is not cheap, there are still thousands of people gathered here, all of whom are the elites and representatives of their respective communities.

A rough calculation shows that there are probably more than a hundred forces participating in this gift game.

But not every community is eligible to participate in the competition!

The vast majority of the gift holders who are here today are just "audience members", and the leading actor always has to make the final appearance.

"This is too difficult. Just now, a community representative with a five-digit number couldn't be pulled out."

"Didn't they say they would reject those with numbers above three digits? If they can't even pull out five digits, are they specifically inviting four-digit masters?"

"Not necessarily. The sword-drawing ceremony may not test strength..."

While everyone was discussing and looking embarrassed, there were some people who remained calm and indifferent.

These people were either extremely confident in their own strength, or had extraordinary backgrounds and did not take the sword-drawing ceremony seriously, or they had other plans in mind.

In short, although this gift game attracted a lot of "small fry", there were also many real masters who came here.

For these people, the sword-drawing ceremony has never been an obstacle.

So, when some people lost their patience, the deadlocked situation on the field finally saw a breakthrough.

"That person is..."

"Could it be that?"

A slender figure stood out from the crowd and attracted everyone's attention.

Her gorgeous long, pure white hair was tied into a high ponytail with a black headband, and her face was covered with a black and white mask that covered the part above her nose. She was wearing an elegant and decent white dress, and an extremely delicate silver light armor on the outside.

If we ignore the armor and only look at her dress and temperament, this girl is more like a noble lady going to a ball than a knight. However, the silver armor transforms her elegance into heroic spirit.

"There's no mistake. I've seen her... She's the subordinate of the Halloween Queen!"

"And I heard that she was very favored... I didn't expect her to appear here."

"But this is not surprising. After all, it is the sovereignty of the sun..."

The knight girl seemed to be quite famous among some people, and when her identity and background spread, it immediately caused a commotion.

Her own strength is nothing special, but the person she serves is one of the few in the entire box garden, making it impossible for everyone to ignore her.

——"Halloween Queen"!

It is said that she holds the most solar sovereignty besides the White Night Demon King, and can compete with him!

It is said that she is the central figure of the Celtic pantheon!

It is said that although she herself is worth three digits, she is not afraid at all even when facing big shots worth two digits!

Now that Shiroyasha has turned over a new leaf, the Halloween Queen may be even more popular and famous throughout the entire little garden.

As her close confidant, the young knight "Faith" will naturally attract a lot of attention.

She would send her favorite minister here... Could it be that the Queen of Halloween is also interested in this game?

——Everyone is guessing.

But the female knight herself did not care about the inquiring gazes of these people. She calmly walked up the stone steps and then gently grasped the golden sword hilt.

bass!

There was no hindrance or difficulty at all. It was just like an ordinary sword drawing. The female knight pulled the sword out of the stone platform without much effort. The sunlight shone on the sword, creating ripples as clear as water.

Everyone was amazed when they saw this, but they were not surprised. After all, in their opinion, as a talent that even the big shot had noticed, it was natural for the female knight to be able to do this.

Feisi looked at the knight's sword in her hand. Her expression couldn't be seen through the mask, but she seemed very interested.

However, as the long sword was pulled out, the tightly closed door not far away also slowly moved, as if an invisible hand was pushing it open, revealing the corridor inside.

The young knight no longer hesitated, put the sword back into place, and walked towards the gate.

At the same time, several men who also looked like knights came out. They were obviously the companions of the female knight and followed Feisi into the gate.

"what?"

Seeing this scene, some people couldn't help themselves and wanted to take Feisi's ride through the gate. However, just when they arrived at the door, before entering, they felt a sense of crisis in their hearts.

There was only a loud thunderclap, and before the man could react, dazzling lightning shot out from the reliefs on the left and right doors and directly submerged him.

There was a flash of lightning... The man didn't die, he just fainted. However, his body became extremely miserable, with a charred body and an afro... It was just like in the comics.

But the door had already been closed.

"I see."

Everyone now understood the operating mechanism of this level.

"Drawing a sword opens a door once. There is no limit to the number of people who can enter, but they must be part of the same community as the one who draws the sword."

Jiang Liu, Hei Tu and Fei Niao were also in the crowd. Hei Tu's appearance was a bit eye-catching. People around them had already noticed their small group of three. They had some guesses in their minds, and all kinds of meaningful looks lingered on Jiang Liu.

Of course, just like the female knight Feisi, Jiang Liu doesn't care about these gazes.

Although Feisi had gotten there first, he did not act in a hurry. Instead, he began to carefully look at some of the weird people in the crowd.

It has to be said that the appeal of solar sovereignty is indeed great. I am afraid that many strong people would rather descend from heaven and become human beings to fight for it. At least here Jiang Liu has sensed two or three guys who are suspected of this.

"Hey, it's about time to go in."

Fei Niao saw that Jiang Liu was absent-minded, so he raised his elbow and nudged him.

"Don't just stand here like an idiot."

"Ok?"

Jiang Liu turned his attention back and found that many communities had passed the test and entered the competition venue.

After all, unlike the passers-by who appeared before, most of those who appeared after Feisi were powerful, with at least five figures, and had already escaped the level of small fish. Although there were some who were eliminated, most of them were still able to draw the sword.

Jiang Liu also realized that although the sword was derived from the legend of the Knights of the Round Table, it was not the sword of choosing the king after all, and it did not test "the qualifications of the king" but "merits", which in a sense could also be said to be spiritual quality.

As long as the strength of the spirit reaches a certain level, the sword can be drawn out.

By the way, this sword has a "preference" for spiritual attributes.

If it is a spirit formed by heroic deeds, then even if it is weaker, it can pass the test.

"Let me go!"

Asuka grasped the hilt of the sword with great interest and pulled it out with surprising ease.

"Wow, this sword is really beautiful..."

It was not until Jiang Liu and his three companions walked into the venue that everyone finally began to talk in low voices. It seemed that no one dared to talk behind Jiang Liu's back before.

"That one just now..."

"No doubt, it's him!"

"The one who defeated the three-headed dragon?"

"He is the only one... The community seems to be [no name]."

"No, it should be called "Arcadia" now."

"That community is slowly recovering..."
