Someone was holding the long and narrow window, facing north.
She raised her hand and stretched it out of the window, as if she wanted to catch something, but in the end, she retracted it.
A hundred steps behind her, there was a light cough, and she smiled, "It seems that my distinguished guest can't stay idle."
The old butler, Ge Li Si, walked out of the shadows and said in a deep voice, "Sir, Tong Wu has entered the arena."
"Oh?" Alice did not turn around, still looking north. To the north of the castle, it was a barren land. She said, "Tong Wu can't stand the loneliness either. After all, the Forgotten Realm is too small for him. In the entire Forgotten Realm, there is no one who can defeat me except me. He doesn't dare to cross me, and he isn't interested in anyone else. He could have left the Forgotten Realm, but he has wasted a thousand years here. Finally, an opponent has arrived. Listen, his heart has never been as fierce as it is at this moment. "
"This man is excited right now."
Ge Li's eyes flashed with worry as he opened his mouth. Alice shook her head. "It doesn't matter. Tong Wu knows his limits. Besides, our distinguished guest is not a simple person. With an aura similar to that person, how could he be simple? That person is destined to be ordinary. "
"Go. I think you also want to see the battle between those two."
The old butler bowed deeply and retreated into the shadows. Alice looked out of the window again and turned to leave.
To the north of the Forgotten Realm was the Great Wasteland, the Hill of Death, and the Demonic Shadow Empire!
In the colosseum, Allen and Tong Wu stood ten steps apart. He looked relaxed as he spread out his hands and asked, "How do you want to compete?"
"According to the rules of the colosseum." Tong Wu's voice was hoarse, and it was indescribably unpleasant to the ears. Moreover, because he rarely spoke, there was always an awkward and weird tone to his words. "But to us, the Colosseum is too big. So I want to add another rule? "
"Sure." Allen agreed without asking.
Tong Wu was expressionless as he raised his foot and stomped. A crack appeared at his feet and spread out, drawing a circle around the two of them. Tong Wu faced Allen and said, "With this as the boundary, you will lose."
"Fair." Allen began to walk towards Tong Wu, and so did the latter.
The two of them stood in the middle of the circle. The diameter of the circle was no more than three meters, and the space was very limited. Tong Wu's action was a little like a prison. But just as he said, if they did not limit themselves to such a narrow area, it would take a long time for the two of them to decide the winner.
Tong Wu knew that the Lord was going to have dinner with Allen. From a certain point of view, this general could be considered "considerate".
Tong Wu, who had been keeping a straight face, grinned. Then, the battle began without any warning.
He didn't shout, nor did he circulate his Origin Energy. He simply smashed his fist into Allen's face. The latter raised his left arm and bent his elbow to block the attack. At the same time, he clenched his right fist and aimed it at Tong Wu's lower abdomen. However, the General clenched his fist. Then, Allen elbowed Tong Wu's fist with his left hand, stretched out his arm, and turned it into a knifehand that went straight for Tong Wu's neck. Tong Wu quickly reached out and grabbed Allen's wrist. Both of the latter's hands were caught by Tong Wu, making it difficult for him to move.
Allen smiled. Then, both of them raised their legs and bent their knees at the same time, and slammed into each other.
The ground in the Colosseum was filled with thunder. A sharp and penetrating sound wave whizzed out, causing the spectators to frown. Several generals with weaker combat strength even covered their ears and looked at each other in dismay. They could all see that Tong Wu and Allen did not use their Origin Energy. At this moment, they were only competing on their combat skills and physique.
It was not surprising that Tong Wu had such a strong physique. What surprised the generals was that even though Allen was not strong by human standards, his physique was not inferior to Tong Wu's!
Xue Feng gritted his teeth.
At this time, the knee strike was useless. Tong Wu gracefully let go of Allen and took the initiative to retreat to the edge. He waved his hand and said, "Again."
Allen also retreated to the edge. Although he was less than three meters away from Tong Wu, he took the lead and rushed forward. Tong Wu "gladly" welcomed the attack and took the initiative to punch Allen's forehead. Allen lowered his body and swept his leg at Tong Wu's feet like a whip. Tong Wu lost his balance and rolled with both hands on the ground. Then, he twisted his waist and swept his leg at Allen's waist. Allen was not willing to take on his leg blade, which was powerful enough to break gold and stone. He changed his posture and pressed his hands on Tong Wu's feet. Borrowing the force, he flew up and kicked at the general on the ground.
Tong Wu took advantage of the momentum to roll and dodge, causing Allen's foot to miss. In the blink of an eye, both of them exchanged positions and sprang up at the same time. Then, their punches and kicks rained down on each other's body. At this moment, both of them seemed to be connected. Both of them gave up any form of defense. They used their own bodies to resist each other's punches and kicks, and then retaliated with more powerful attacks. Therefore, they suddenly switched from the initial exchange of attacks to the current close combat.
Muffled sounds of collisions rang out continuously. Because their punches and kicks were too fast, the sounds of collisions were almost continuous, making it difficult to distinguish them. Until this moment, the two of them still did not use any source energy. However, the punches and kicks made the spectating generals twitch the corners of their mouths. Just listening to the sound of the punches and kicks colliding was painful. The generals did not dare to imagine what would happen if they were in the same situation. Perhaps it would be difficult for them to even stand?
However, not only were the two of them still standing, their expressions did not change.
This battle of only attacking and not defending ended with a punch from Tong Wu on the side of Allen's face, while the latter stepped on his opponent's heart and declared the end. Both of them were knocked back by the other party, but they stood still at the same time and pounced on each other. Tong Wu clenched his fists like a drum. He roared and raised his arms to pound. Allen used his palm as a knife and leaned over.
Then, the two figures brushed past each other.
Tong Wu was a little slower, and he was sent flying by Allen's knife at his waist. Just as he was about to fly out of the ring, his arm was suddenly grabbed and pulled back by Allen.
"I lost," Tong Wu said simply.
Allen shook his head, "You didn't lose to me, but to the rules. This kind of battle is meaningless to us. If we really want to talk about it, it can only be considered a draw. "
Tong Wu frowned and wanted to say something. Allen said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "That's it. Don't forget that I still have to have dinner with your lord. If you insist on admitting defeat, I'm afraid that your colleagues will not be convinced. If they take turns to fight, it will be a waste of time. "
Hearing this, Tong Wu reluctantly nodded.
This result was the best for Allen or Alice's generals. Allen proved with practical actions that he had a tough skill that was not inferior to Copper Wu, and the general was happy to save face. However, when the two of them walked out of the colosseum, the general named Xuefeng was nowhere to be found. It was unknown how he had left the colosseum. However, through the battle with Tong Wu, the generals on Alice's side finally knew that it was reasonable for Allen to become a VIP in the castle, which was enough for Allen.
When the hourglass turned to night, Allen, who had changed into a new set of clothes, walked into another hall in the castle under the guidance of Gelse. This hall was not as luxurious as the Hall of Time, which was covered with abyss crystals. This dining hall lacked the mysterious charm of the Hall of Time; instead, it looked more like a fireplace. The blazing fireplace, the long table with food, the decorations and murals, as well as the armors, spears, and swords in the corners, made Allen feel like he had returned to Earth.
"What do you think? I've asked Gelse to redecorate the dining hall according to human habits and aesthetics. Do you like it?" The hostess, Alice, walked over from the other side of the hall.
Allen nodded. "You're considerate."
She was indeed considerate. She had redecorated the dining hall just for dinner, which showed how much she valued Allen.
After the guests and the host took their seats, Gelse personally served them. He took the food from the maids and placed it in front of Alice and Allen. Alice smiled. "I don't know whether the food is to your liking. After all, this is not your hometown. No matter how similar the food is, it will never taste like what you remember."
Allen cut a corner of the "steak" on the plate and put it into his mouth to chew. The sauce and even the taste were very similar, but the meat was not real beef, so it tasted a bit strange. However, compared to the food at Liam's Restaurant in Green Light Town, it was hundreds of times better.
At this time, Gelse poured another glass of wine for the two of them. From the color, it looked like red wine on Earth. However, after tasting it carefully, it was more spicy than red wine. However, after entering his stomach, it vaguely stirred up the Origin Energy in his body, causing a ripple. That feeling was something that red wine could not give him. Allen was slightly surprised. Alice explained, "It's a drink made from the sap of the Energy Devouring Tree. Drinking more can increase your Origin Energy, but it's useless for you and me."
Then she talked about the customs of Agares. Alice's understanding of the planet was naturally much more detailed and comprehensive than Allen's information from the Federation. This was a rare opportunity for him, who had just arrived, to learn about the planet. Especially the information about Dobia and the Demonic Shadow Empire, Allen could not forget it. However, until now, Alice hadn't mentioned anything about her and Spenak. Fortunately, Allen wasn't in a hurry. Moreover, with delicacies in front of him, he didn't want to let go of such a rare meal. One had to know that he hadn't had a good meal since he arrived in Agares.
"I was just wondering how long you could bear to ask questions about me and Spenak," Alice said at last, after all the plates on the table had been changed once. But until now, you haven't asked a single question. Are you patient, or are you not interested in me and Spenak? "
Allen politely put down his knife and fork and wiped his mouth with a towel beside him before saying, "I'm very interested in what Madam said just now, so I don't feel impatient at all. And I think if Madam wants to say something, you will say it without me asking. If you don't want to say it, I probably won't be able to get anything out of you. "
Alice covered her mouth and chuckled, "Your aura is very similar to his, but you're much more interesting than him."
Allen said seriously, "Then who exactly is he?"
