Chapter 305 Duel with Me? Single Fight or Group Fight?

Gretel stepped aside subconsciously. The sword light did not come towards him, but passed him by and pointed behind him. The crowd rolled and fell away, and a man in brocade clothes fell to the ground, with a sword pointed directly at his throat.

This person seems familiar. Was he one of Miss Salina's dance partners just now?

Grete wasn't so sure. He dragged Aurora and followed the crowd, stepping aside in small steps. Baron Hopman was condescending, pointed his sword directly at the throat of the man in robes, and said angrily:

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

The man's face is earthy. He hid in the crowd. He originally thought that Baron Hopman could not find him, or even if he found him, he would not leave the battle immediately and run directly to him. Unexpectedly, just as he finished shouting, the sword light was fierce and it was already pressed to the throat!

He fell to the ground, put his hands behind his back, and squirmed backwards. Once, twice, Spider Baron showed no intention of relaxing. He sent the long sword forward, and the tip of the sword gently sank into the skin of his throat:

"Get out of here! I'm going to fight you!"

A trickle of blood ran down the middle of his throat. The man in brocade trembled all over, suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Grete beside him:

"I didn't say it first! It was him! It was him! Go find him!"

Baron Hopman turned his head suddenly. Gretel stood quietly five steps away, his face calm and half surprised. The baron looked at the young mage up and down. After a moment, he asked in a low voice:

"Did you say that?"

Gretel opened his mouth to speak. Before the words left his mouth, he suddenly said "Oops":

A sword light came right up to the eyebrows!

Gretel reflexively took a step back. The mage's armor shattered silently half a foot away from his eyes, and a translucent force field barrier rose from the ground. It was the automatic protection triggered by the [Endless Ink Pen], which firmly protected him at the critical moment.

On the other side of the barrier, Knight Hopman looked ferocious. He raised his sword straight and pointed it squarely at the center of Gretel's eyebrows, with murderous intent in his eyes:

"Take your words back! Either take them back, or if you dare to insult my family, fight me in a duel!!!"

Grete's heart was pounding, and she was covered in cold sweat.

The sword just now was aimed directly at his vital points! It's not a warning, it's not a warning, it's just that I want to kill him! His mage armor has been shattered. If the [Endless Ink Pen] hadn't popped up the force field barrier in time, he would be dead now!

Since time travel, this is the closest he has been to death!

"You want to kill me?" He gritted his teeth and stared at the other person, trying not to let his voice tremble. Aurora on the left, Lynn on the right, the two friends leaned over and stood side by side with him. Two shields rose at the same time, spliced ​​to the left and right of the force field barrier, like a pair of spread wings.

Across the force field barrier, Knight Hopman glared at Gretel fiercely. This time, he really had murderous intentions——

Unlike before, the first duel was just to find trouble and beat someone up; the second fight was more about forcing Miss Salina to accept his pursuit; this time, he wanted to kill from the bottom of his heart. Get rid of this talkative mage!

How dare you insult your family's bloodline!

Insulting the bloodline that their family relies on to make the most of [Spider Sword Technique]!

Long hands, long legs, and extraordinarily slender fingers are all gifts given to them by God and are proof of their noble bloodline!

This mage actually talked nonsense, saying that this was a disease, and that if he couldn't bear strenuous exercise, he would die suddenly!

How can it be? !

Those who maliciously attack the family must be killed if possible!

But not now. The other party is a mage. A mage who talks about their family is much more effective than the nonsense of a certain noble! The top priority is to get him to take his words back!

He took two deep breaths, his wrist sank slightly, the tip of the sword was raised, and he aimed it at Gretel's eyebrows:

"Take back your words. Your words have insulted the blood of our family. Either take it back, or this kind of hatred can only be washed away with blood!"

Grete's face slowly darkened. He had seen through the Hopman family's hereditary disease and had no intention of making a fuss about it. If Baron Hopmann came to him in private and asked him to keep it secret with kind words, he would certainly agree - it was also the doctor's duty to keep the patient's confidentiality secret.

But that guy wants to kill him! Someone else yelled it, but that guy wanted to kill him! After one attack failed, he used the sword to force him again, and ordered him to take it back in public...

What do you take me for? ! A disease is a disease, and a hereditary disease is a hereditary disease. Even if you beat me up, or even kill me, it is impossible to become disease-free!

Gretel twisted her face bitterly. If you can, just have a fight and let me turn the black into white, no way!

"You want to duel with me? I'm a magician!"

"What happened to the magician? Don't worry, I will duel with you and abide by your magician's rules!"

Knight Hopman gritted his teeth and sneered. His eyes fell on Gretel: a third-level magician and a fourth-level arcanist. The research level may be high, but the personal combat power is there!

He will definitely win this duel!

...Magician's rules? what is that? Gretel was a little confused, and subconsciously turned to Aurora, casting a questioning look. On the right, Selina has already rushed over with her sword in hand, sneering:

"Duel with a magician?! If you duel with him, you have to face all his followers, familiars and summons at the same time. Are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" Knight Hopman's eyes were firm. In the surrounding area, he recognized almost every magician who came from a noble or mage family; without the support of family power, who could afford to have followers?

Even if you rely on your high research level and the teacher's favor, you will only have a few magic equipment at most! The equipment that can trigger the protective barrier just now has been forced out once!

As for the magic pet that a level 3 mage can bring...

Limited by the mage's financial resources and level, it's basically a joke.

Knight Hopman was full of confidence, but what Grete heard here was Salina's intentional reminder. He immediately felt relieved, nodded to the female knight to express his gratitude, looked at Knight Hopman, and sighed helplessly:

"Really want to duel?"

"certainly!"

"Is it okay not to duel?... You have already fought twice. If you fight one more, I'm afraid your heart won't be able to bear it and you will die suddenly..."

"Shut up!" Knight Hopman shouted angrily. He had originally thought that if Gretel really refused to duel and a high-level mage intervened to stop him, then he would put forward a painful compensation condition. That’s not necessary now:

"If you are really afraid of death and refuse to duel, then you will be punished according to the rules of the nobility! You have insulted our family and our noble blood. You must walk barefoot from here to the family castle and be whipped at the gate of the castle!"

Oh?

Is this a slap in the face?

Gretel was also angry. I stopped you with good intentions, because I was afraid that you would die suddenly, and you would be justified in the medical trouble! He took a step with a cold face:

"I accept the duel!—When? Where?!"

Seeing that the two sides were getting more and more angry, especially since the duel involved a magician, several noble people finally walked out of the crowd of spectators:

The old priest who accompanied Knight Hopman was his great-uncle;

Archmage Tolga who accompanied his daughter to the ball;

Earl of Inverness...

Several people stood together to discuss for a while, and then a guard blew the horn and loudly announced the verdict:

1. Knight Hopman claimed that the Nordmark mage had insulted his family. Based on noble privilege, Knight Hopman had the right to demand a duel;

2. The Nordmark mage agrees to the duel. The duel will be conducted in accordance with the magician rules promulgated by the Parliament. The Nordmark mage has the right to bring followers, familiars and summons. The knight is not allowed to ride a mount, and the magician is not allowed to fly;

3. The duel takes place at this time and here, in the square at the entrance of the castle. The two sides are 100 steps apart. Only after the witness calls out can you launch an attack or release a spell;

4. The Earl of Inverness, Master Tolgar and Reverend Farren served as witnesses, and other nobles present served as circumstantial evidence;

5. Both sides have reached the point. After one side falls to the ground and admits defeat, the other side cannot maliciously kill...

After finishing speaking, the guard blew the horn again. When the trumpet sound ended, four guards with loud voices stood in a row and shouted in unison:

"Duelists from both sides are invited to enter! Duelists from both sides are invited to enter!"

Hopman Knight entered the field first. Gretel stood still and shouted:

"Bernard!"

"coming!"

The barbarians rushed over like a rock. He grabbed a roasted leg of lamb with one hand, bit off the last bite of the meat, and threw it away. The other greasy hand grasped the big bone stick that he had repaired. The bone club was raised high over his right shoulder. The man and the club were as tall as two Knights of Hopman...

The knight's eyes immediately straightened. Immediately afterwards, he saw Aurora with a cold face, following Gretel into the arena.

The badge on the chest shines brightly, with five bronze stars flashing silently.

A fifth-level magician.

Knight Hopman began to have a headache. Judging from the pace, breathing, muscles, and weight of weapons, that barbarian was probably a warrior of the same level as him; plus a fifth-level magician, it was by no means one plus one equals two.

However, do you want to admit defeat? Call for an end to the duel? Absolutely impossible! The little mage blamed their family lineage and said that people in their family would die suddenly from generation to generation. Once he said this, he would not stop dying! Either kill him or beat him to silence!

Damn it, how could a little magician have one magic, one battle, and two followers? The level of the two followers is higher than him! Who is behind this little guy? Who is it!

He turned his expectant eyes to his great-uncle. And his uncle, Pastor Farren, lived up to his expectations and asked with a stern face: "Are those two people really his followers? Aren't they just friends pretending to be friends?"

"Are you kidding?" Master Tolga happily continued: "Which person, especially a magician, is willing to pretend to be someone else's follower? The barbarian was given by the little guy's teacher, and the blond magician was his Mentor Carlisle is in charge. Go to Thunder Tower and ask around. There are definitely many people who know about this..."

The old priest stopped talking. Knight Hopman's eyes dimmed for a moment, then he suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly:

"You forced me to do this!"

He returned the sword to its sheath and took out a long sword from his pocket. As soon as the new sword was revealed, there was a burst of surprised murmurs among the crowd. Selina's eyes were shocked and she immediately shouted:

"Gretel! Be careful! That is their famous sword 'Bloody Dawn', which can store the full blow of a high-ranking knight!"

High-level knights are knights above level 10. Recalling the last battle against the Lord of Glory, when he faced the ninth-level knight, Grete was shocked and immediately began to take things out of the space bag. Check out the same as Aurora:

"Did you bring the purple scale stone? - Yes? What about the nitrocellulose? Did you bring it? How many packs? Only three packs? That's not enough. I'll give you this bag..."

Knight Hopman clenched his sword and moved forward step by step. This [Bloody Dawn] not only seals the sword energy, but also greatly enhances his strength and speed. With it, supplemented by the family's [Spider Swordsmanship], the opponent can even fight to a draw with a level 8 knight, and even a level 9 knight can injure the opponent unexpectedly!

"Duelists on both sides, are you ready?" The old priest shouted quickly when he saw that Grete was still taking out money. Before Grete could speak, his right shoulder suddenly sank, and a furry thing rolled up and touched his left ear:

"Meow--"

There was another commotion on the sidelines. Under Gretel's surprised gaze, Master Lin En straightened his black robe, and with a stern expression on his face that had not changed for thousands of years, he slowly stepped into the duel field.
