Clorinde drew her sword, looked at her opponent, and asked in confusion: "Where is your weapon?"

Lu Sheng spread his hands and said, "I don't need a weapon."

"Nonsense! Who would duel without a sword? You are insulting the duel, which represents honor! Even if I win, I won't get any honor!"

"Don't be so confident when you say something, Clorinde." Lu Sheng looked up at the dissatisfied female swordsman in front of him and asked, "Have you ever been defeated?"

Fontaine: Chapter 144: The Dragon's Roar Makes You Fly

Clorinde suddenly felt a chill.

She was surprised to find that the opponent before her was different from all the opponents she had encountered before.

The purpose of a judicial duel is to avoid trial.

She fights for justice and can clearly distinguish the purpose of her opponent's duel, whether it is to use the rules of the duel to get away with it, or to conceal some secrets, and would rather choose to die in the duel.

She understands it all.

But when it came to Sherlock, she unexpectedly couldn't tell the difference.

His attitude definitely did not seem like he was trying to escape trial, otherwise he would not have come back alone after running away.

But his self-confidence doesn't seem like that of a man who is determined to die.

Instead, it was more like playing, with no respect for the duel or the Inquisition.

Clorinde became increasingly angry, and she felt that Sherlock was treating all this as a game.

Everyone became his joke!

She tightened her grip on the sword and gave a final warning: "Pick up your weapon, or I will attack you!"

Lu Sheng no longer responded, but stretched out his fingers and hooked them twice provocatively at Clorinde.

Clorinde, who could no longer bear it, finally took action. She was as light as a swallow and approached Lu Sheng in a few steps. The rapier in her hand stabbed out at a speed invisible to the naked eye, pointing directly at the opponent's chest.

Seeing that Clorinde was approaching, Lu Sheng took a deep breath and slowly uttered a character.

"Fuss!"

This is the first character of the Dragon's Roar, "Unbreakable Power", which has the power to make people lose balance.

This dragon language is made up of three characters in total. With each additional character, the power will increase exponentially. When the three characters are read out in one breath, all enemies in front of you can be knocked away.

A deep roar came out of Lu Sheng's mouth, instantly passing through Clorinde's body and resounding throughout the entire courtroom.

The deafening noise caused the audience to cover their ears.

Clorinde's body was pushed, and her feet lost balance instantly. The sword she stabbed out deviated from its original direction and brushed past Lu Sheng's shoulder.

Her pupils widened in surprise; this was an attack method she had never seen before.

Making roars with your mouth? Are you kidding me?!

The opponent blocked his fatal sword without even moving his body, just by spitting out a character from his mouth?

Clorinde was no ordinary person. As she stabbed the air with her sword, she quickly adjusted her center of gravity to stabilize her unbalanced body. She turned her waist, moving her entire upper body, and slashed towards Lu Sheng at an angle.

"You have a huge flaw! You have gained an advantage but have done nothing. Hesitation is the reason for your failure!"

The next moment, Lu Sheng's figure disappeared in front of Clorinde, and her slash missed again.

"what?!"

"Too slow, too slow. Your strength is too weak."

A faint voice came from behind her.

Clorinde's eyes narrowed, and a bone-chilling chill ran up her back.

zizi——

Lightning flashed on her sword blade and she slashed it fiercely behind her. At the same time, she pushed hard with her toes and retreated to a safe place.

"Hu-hu-"

The rapidly accelerating heartbeat made Clorinde's face flush. She had never lost a battle before, but now she looked nervous.

Lu Sheng stood in the center of the courtroom unharmed. It was obvious that the attack that just used elemental power failed to hurt him.

Clorinde couldn't accept it because the prisoner's intelligence stated that Sherlock was an ordinary human without the God's Eye.

Out of honor, when she acts as a duel agent and her opponent is an ordinary person, she will win with ordinary swordsmanship and will never use elemental power.

But she had just broken this rule.

In the center of the field, a huge formation that no one could see was slowly rotating.

With Lu Sheng as the center, Fenghou Qimen has already covered the entire courtroom.

In Qimen, every move of Clorinde was under control. Her every movement, every change of footsteps, and even every drop of sweat were captured accurately.

In this situation, she had no chance of winning at all.

"Just use all your strength, otherwise, I will end this boring duel."

Lu Sheng spoke wildly under the shocked gaze of all the people in Fontaine.

Finina couldn't help but stand up from the throne and leaned on the armrest to watch the duel.

"That guy is too crazy to forget... It's not a good thing to really make Clorinde angry... But... It's really exciting!"

Whoosh!

Clorinde's eyes suddenly became firm and fierce, her body changed rapidly, and a flash of lightning lingered around her.

Now that you have broken the rules, there is no need to follow them anymore.

For the sake of justice in the tribunal, she could abandon her personal honor and risk everything, and she would never let the guilty man escape guilt through a duel!

Clorinde entered a state called "Night Watch". In this state, her strength will be greatly enhanced in a short period of time. Both her speed and the strength of her sword swinging are very different from before.

The audience cheered excitedly.

"Look! Clorinde is serious! That kid is finished!"

"He is no simple person, as he can provoke Clorinde to be serious."

In the audience, Navia, the current president of the Thorn Rose Society, couldn't help but stand up and stare at the duel arena intently.

She has a twisted relationship with Clorinde, because her father died at Clorinde's hands in a duel.

Is it possible that someone will die by her sword again today?

Clorinde launched a fierce attack. Her figure flashed and moved. To ordinary people's eyes, it seemed as if there were several Clorinde's at the same time, making it impossible to tell from which direction she would launch the attack.

Click...

When she was a few meters away from her opponent, Clorinde suddenly took out her pistol and pulled the trigger at Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng dodged the bullet by tilting his head, cursing in his heart: "Who is this Ashina Sword Saint?"

The moment his concentration was interrupted, Clorinde was already in front of him.

A sword like a dragon's breath, with a flash of lightning, pierced towards Lu Sheng, leaving no way to avoid it or dodge it.

"what!!"

Funina, who was on the high stands, screamed.

“Fus Ro Dah!!!”

Another deafening roar suddenly rang out from the duel arena enveloped by lightning.

In an instant, the entire courtroom was shaken by the roar.

The chandelier above their heads was swaying and almost falling. Those who were standing couldn't keep their footing and fell down one after another.

A blue figure and a rapier flew backwards from the brilliant lightning and fell to the ground one after another.

All the audience at Fontaine exclaimed in unison.

The figure that flew out was Clorinde!

Clorinde lost!!

"Hmm...how could it be..."

Clorinde struggled to prop herself up, a look of disbelief on her face. She crawled over with all her strength to pick up her sword, but when she really touched the hilt, she suddenly threw the sword in frustration and announced her defeat.

This is the rule of a duel. Once either party loses their weapon, they have already lost, regardless of whether they have the strength to fight again.

Moreover, his only chance to win was lost because his body suddenly became extremely slow.

Although she was very unconvinced, Clorinde had to admit that she could never be a match for Sherlock.

The high and mighty Chief Justice Navilette had a very strange expression on his face at this moment.

The result of the duel was certainly extremely unexpected, but what made him even more terrified was that he felt a strange resonance in the roar just now.

The roar sounded like the language of dragons, but he couldn't understand it at all.

However, the trembling of the dragon soul in his body was real.

He...is he a dragon?

Fontaine: Chapter 145: Clorinde, go investigate Sherlock

Now that things have come to this, no matter how reluctant you are, it will be of no use.

It is a fact that Shylock won the duel. As the chief justice, Navillatte could not violate the laws of Fontaine. He could only declare Shylock not guilty in court and release him.

As for who he is, Zhuyingting will slowly investigate it.

He stopped the noisy crowd with a loud voice and announced solemnly: "The result of the duel has been decided. According to the rules of judicial duel, Mr. Sherlock Moriarty, I, Judge Navilette, declare you not guilty and release you on the spot."

Then he added: "But please note that although your charges have been cleared, your actions will still be subject to the laws of Fontaine and the supervision of the Court of Fontaine. After leaving the court, if you do anything that violates the laws of Fontaine again, your next duel opponent will be me."

There was silence.

It is unprecedented that the Chief Justice of Villette becomes a duel agent!

This is also a constraint that Villette imposes on Shylock, and a guarantee to the people of Fontaine.

After all, a suspect who caused the explosion was released in court, which would undoubtedly make the people of Fontaine panic.

Relying on one's own strength to deter the other side is enough to eliminate people's concerns.

Lu Sheng readily agreed: "Okay, can I leave now?"

"can."

Just like that, in front of everyone, Lu Sheng swaggered out of the courtroom.

"Today's judicial duel has ended. Please leave in an orderly manner and do not linger."

All procedures have been completed and the courtroom has begun to clear the audience.

In the end, only Chief Justice Navilette and the Water God were left in the courtroom.

"Ms. Fernina, I wonder what you think about this matter?" Villette suddenly asked Fernina.

Funina answered cleverly: "My opinion? I have no opinion. Isn't this in line with Fontaine law? The winner of the judicial duel can be exempted from trial and declared not guilty, no problem at all."

"I mean Sherlock. What do you think of him?"

Furninna hesitated for a moment, then continued, "He is very strong."

After a brief silence, Villette asked, "No more?"

"That's all! He is very strong. Even Clorinde is no match for him. I think it's okay for me to say that he is very strong."

Villette sighed, "Aren't you worried that he might endanger Fontaine's safety? After all...his origins are still a mystery."

"Uh...it's okay. I will be responsible for finding out the truth! I will keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't do anything that will harm Fontaine!"

It's really a blessing in disguise. It's surprising that Funina would be interested in this kind of thing.

In the past, she would usually avoid doing anything adventurous.

Villette didn't think much about it. Perhaps it was because Sherlock's existence did endanger Fontaine that the water god also took it seriously.
