Chapter 169 Before the 'Baptism' Ceremony (Part 2)

Unlike the nobles with clear banners, the team of the God Cult behind Dean is mainly white, whether it is the carriage or the badge on the armor.

After all, white represents holiness, doesn't it?

After Dean looked around the team of the God Cult, he naturally landed on the white carriage and the two people beside the carriage.

The tall and short figures made it easy for Dean to recognize that these two were his next opponents.

However, Dean's eyes only stayed on the two opponents for a short time, and then looked at the carriage next to each other——

De Hall!

There was no need to ask, Dean knew exactly who was sitting inside.

And precisely because of this clear knowledge, Dean was even more vigilant.

In fact, compared to those two opponents who are valued by everyone, Dean pays more attention to this De Hall!

Although the other party is only the regional bishop of Vauban County, Dean is very clear that after the second Blood Moon War, the other party will serve as Privy Archbishop, in charge of the entire northern part of Emerald... as a gold-level powerhouse. identity.

At the same time, what made Dean even more cautious was the attitude the other party had shown towards Jade: hostility, very thorough hostility! The rebel army he once led was hunted down by the opponent more than once.

Even, there were several chances to turn the situation around, but they were destroyed in the opponent's hands!

"We must kill this guy..."

Thinking of the other party's identity and actions, a strong killing intent surged in Dean's heart - but, the moment the killing intent appeared, he set his sights on this moment. The two opponents he should focus on.

After all, although De Hall is not a gold-level powerhouse now, it is enough to reach the silver level. It is only one step away from the gold level.

Coupled with the mysterious and unpredictable divine arts, once the murderous aura is revealed. Very easy to be locked.

But Dean understood that at this moment, if he was targeted by a silver-ranked spellcaster, especially a spellcaster who still had the status of a bishop of a region, what a miserable end would be.

Despite the endless hatred in his heart, Dean will not be reckless.

Or... the price I paid recklessly,

Keep Dean in mind.

He will plan well.

However, compared with Dean's calmness. His opponent is full of fighting spirit——

Woo!

The Glodar, who was stronger than a barbarian, saw Dean's cold and piercing eyes, and subconsciously thought it was a challenge from his opponent. Immediately, without even thinking about it, he waved the war hammer in his hand, his eyes were burning with fierce fighting intent, and they were extremely hot.

Even Dean, who was looking at each other, felt the burning heat.

However, Dean didn't pay much attention to the opponent, this kind of opponent who could 'see clearly' at a glance. Not as worthy of Dean's attention as the opponent next to him who has been hiding himself.

Dean was sure that the other party felt his killing intent, but he didn't express it at all, neither his body nor his words—even though Dean sent out his killing intent. It's just because of the cover-up of staggering the real target, but the killing intent is real, and under such a killing intent, not everyone can be calm.

At least that Gulodar showed some counterattack behavior.

It's an instinct.

As for another instinct?

Naturally trembling!

But this man named Higgs did not show his instinct, so there are only two possibilities——

First, the other party is too slow to perceive it.

Second, the other party can already restrain and control their own instincts.

The first point. If the other party can come to perform the 'Knight Baptism', it already means that it is impossible.

Well of course it is. Second point!

A person who can restrain and control his instincts is naturally able to control his body. Even, the way to restrain and control instinct starts with body control.

In addition, the opponent's weapon is a double sword.

Dean felt that the danger level of the other party should be increased by one level.

After all, using dual swords itself requires special skills, and the control of the body, whether it is due to this skill, or the basis for wanting to learn this skill.

All worthy of Dean's vigilance.

As we all know, the more demanding a technique is, the more powerful it will be.

As for the dual-wielding sword skills circulated within the Divine Religion, those that conform to such characteristics are——

Roll, roll...

The sound of Baron Jenner's team moving forward sounded again, causing Dean to temporarily lose his memory. He looked at the team behind him once again, and urged his horse to move forward.

The front of the convoy was naturally the Baron Jando, a close confidant of the Marquis of Vauban, and in order to separate the Defendi and Tire families who had always been at odds, Baron Jando was naturally in the middle of the two.

Therefore, when the convoy of Dean and his party passed the suspension bridge, all the teams representing the noble lords who participated in the 'Knight Baptism' were all present.

When they arrived at the refurbished and painted front hall of the castle, the convoys stopped one after another, and the lords and lord representatives from all over the place, with their bodyguards and the knights who were going to participate in the baptism, walked into the hall of the castle.

Obviously, the hall of the castle has also been meticulously repaired in the past few days.

At least, the few potholes in Dean's memory have been restored to their original state.

"Knight Dean Ken, please come here!"

The butler of the Marquis of Vauban, standing in the middle of the hall, called Dean in this way, and beside the butler, three young men were already standing there.

Dean stepped out and walked to the side of the three young people very naturally, and nodded slightly in response to the unfriendly scrutiny of the three young people.

Undoubtedly, these three were the knights who belonged to the side of the Marquis of Vauban in the 'Knight Baptism' ceremony.

Without exception, they were all young men with vigorous looks, and their strong bodies that could not be concealed by armor, as well as their firm and sharp eyes, showed that all three of them had undergone sufficient training.

If it weren't for the two knights of the divine religion, these three people. Obviously, it will be the focus of much attention.

And they also have such qualifications.

At least, in Dean's impression, even Siren, the top young man among his subordinates. Compared with the three people in front of them, they are quite different.

perhaps. Age, growth environment, etc., make this kind of comparison somewhat unfair.

However, the gap is the gap, and Dean will never find other excuses to shirk.

As for the unfriendly eyes of the three?

Dean naturally knew it well.

It’s nothing more than young people’s unique competitiveness and reluctance to admit defeat; if you think about it in another way, Dean himself will be unhappy if someone else replaces an opportunity that has been waiting for a long time.

therefore. He didn't have too much hostility towards these three young people.

And in fact, it is so--

The three young men standing beside Dean were thinking and comparing the gap between themselves and Dean the moment they saw Dean.

In fact, they already knew a general idea about Dean's performance in the attack on Fort Vauban.

And it was precisely because they knew such a general idea that they were persuaded that Dean was going to deal with the two well-known geniuses in Vauban County from the Cult of God.

However, this does not mean that they are convinced.

Just because of the teacher's order. That's why they had to do it.

After seeing Dean, they became suspicious.

Although in armor, it looks good on the outside. However, there is no more aura, especially the coercive aura of their teacher, not at all.

Such a person can behead the great knight?

The three young men present expressed their deep doubts.

"Most devout servant of God, beloved by the people, Bishop of Vauban County, Monsieur de Hale, here we come!"

A long sound. Modified with a series of prefixes, the team of the divine religion appeared in the premise. Then, the bishop de Hall, who had gone through many rhetoric, walked in with the two young knights who were about to be baptized.

Under the guidance of that steward. Bishop De Hall walked to the auditorium, while the two knights of the Religion walked to where Dean and his party were.

There was no exchange of words, but the atmosphere became tense in an instant.

If the eyes of the three young knights were not friendly when they faced Dean, then when they saw the two people from the Holy See, there was only strong hostility left.

In the face of such hostility, the Higgs who Dean paid special attention to did not react at all, and stood there as if he hadn't noticed, waiting for the start of the 'baptism'.

However, the other Gulodar turned his head and looked provocatively at the four knights who were also about to be baptized, including Dean.

And the three young men on the side of the Marquis of Vauban naturally glared uncompromisingly.

Only Dean, standing between the two sides, did not respond at all.

It was as if he didn't feel the flame-like fighting intent on both sides of his body at all.

Step, step...

Clear footsteps sounded, and the Marquis of Vauban came out from the back of the hall in full attire. The robe was woven with gold silk and black brocade, and several finely divided emerald agates were dotted on the edge. A different kind of light——

"The county king of the great Emerald Kingdom, the most loyal servant of His Majesty the king, the most dedicated servant of Vauban County..."

In the same series of prefix rhetoric, the Marquis of Vauban sat in the center of the hall.

"Master Marquis, I question their qualifications to become knights, I... want to challenge them!!"

Just when the Marquis of Vauban had just sat down, the god knight Golodar stepped forward, and said loudly after a standard knight salute.

"Master Marquis, we also question his qualifications to become a knight!"

The three young knights of Vauban, who had been provoked for a long time, strode out without waiting for the Marquis of Vauban to speak.
