As they walked towards the camp hall, Roddy and Metallon\'s expressions changed slightly at the same time.
Metallon shook his head and said, "These young people are really impulsive. They don\'t agree with each other and just start fighting."
"Isn\'t there a saying that men understand each other through their fists? This is also a way of communicating." Roddy said with a relaxed expression. Both he and Metallon sensed the auras released by Allen and the others. Link\'s aura was condensed, and he had a majestic and magnanimous dignity. At his age, it was truly rare. Moreover, he was quite a bit ahead of Allen in terms of Origin Energy level, but Roddy wasn\'t worried about Allen at all.
After all, this was Bescot\'s camp, and Link wouldn\'t dare to seriously injure Allen. Even if he dared to do so, Metallon wouldn\'t let that happen. Moreover, Allen\'s overall strength was definitely not something that could be explained clearly by a mere Origin Energy level. If Link superficially thought that level was combat strength, then he would probably learn a lesson this time.
"Looks like I have to excuse myself, Mr. Roddy," said Metallon. "I\'ll see you later."
Without waiting for Roddy to reply, Metallon\'s figure flashed and he had already moved more than ten meters away. Then, he rushed towards the place where Allen and the others\ 'auras were rising. His running posture was very vigorous and powerful, carrying with it a faint domineering aura that nothing could stop, causing Roddy\'s pupils to shrink slightly. It could be imagined that if this old marquis were to make a move, it would definitely be a violent and tyrannical method.
Lucy retreated a hundred meters away and looked at the two of them in front of her anxiously and helplessly.
At this moment, both of them were releasing their Origin Energy, and their auras were rising. Apart from not releasing the projection, it was as if he was going all out. A faint golden flame rose from Link\'s body, and there were constantly balls of light that flickered like stars. The orange flames that sprayed out from Allen\'s body boiled like raging flames. Occasionally, a few strands of sparkling red light that were as dense as magma would rush up like dragons, emitting astonishing heat.
Two different types of Origin Energy probed, entangled, and collided with each other! They hadn't even made a move yet, but the Origin Energy confrontation had already caused Lucy's heart to skip a beat. In contrast, Allen was clearly suppressed by Link. This was also natural. After all, Link's level was far above Allen's. If they were purely comparing Origin Energy equivalents, Allen wouldn't be able to catch up even if he whipped his horse.
However, Allen maintained his tenacity. Every time Link's starlight flames were suppressed to the point of suffocation, the sparkling red flames would collide with each other. They crashed into Link's Origin Energy flames and collided with the flickering stars, exploding into countless pieces of light at the same time.
Now, Allen knew that whether it was the twinkling stars in Link's Origin Energy flames or his own dragon-like flames, they were all external manifestations of Origin Energy condensation. The battle between Flame Dragon and Star was a clash of their strongest powers. In terms of Origin Energy equivalent, Allen was inferior to Link. However, in terms of the highest level of strength, he did not lose to his opponent at all. Link's flickering stars carried a faint sense of vastness and majesty, while Allen's flames were filled with a wild aura of destruction. Every time they collided, Link could feel the blazing heat that could burn everything, making him mistakenly think that the entire world had turned into a sea of purgatory flames!
After another collision of Origin Energy, the two of them finally made their move.
Link stepped forward and flashed forward as if he had stepped through the void. At the same time, he slashed out with his palm. It seemed to be hitting the air, but in reality, when this palm landed, it would definitely hit Allen's chest. Allen arched his body like a wolf, his feet sawing the ground. With a slight push, he had already pounced towards Link. His posture was a mixture of nimbleness and wildness, like a snow wolf pouncing on its prey.
He even ignored Link's palm that was aimed at his chest and focused on punching out.
The fists moved and the clouds surged. The hot smoke around his body followed an invisible law and quickly flowed. It whistled as it formed a spiral stream of air, chasing after Allen's fist, pushing the power of this punch to its peak!
If the two of them didn't change their original positions, then Link would slash his palm into Allen's chest, while Allen would stab his fist into Link's body. The result was that both sides were injured. Seeing this, Lucy couldn't help but cry out, "Stop!"
However, not only did the two of them not stop, their Origin Energy auras surged crazily. In that split-second moment, a figure suddenly intervened between the two of them, and the three of them collided with each other. The stars around Link's body flickered, and Allen's flame dragon scurried around. The two of them attacked with all their might, but they were forcefully broken through by someone.
When the two of them had restrained their Origin Energy flames, Lucy could clearly see that the person who had interfered was Metallon. Metallon's expression was solemn. He opened Link's palm knife with one hand and held Allen's heavy fist with the other. The old marquis looked at the two of them and spat out two words from his mouth, "Nonsense!"
He pushed his hands horizontally and separated the two of them. Metallon looked at Link first and said, "What did you promise me before you came?"
Link's expression was awkward. Under Metallon's gaze, he had no choice but to say, "I promised you, Marquis, that I would never mention my true relationship with His Highness. I will never attack anyone related to His Highness. I will restrain myself and think for His Highness. "
"You still remember. Then what are you doing now? Could it be that Lei Beth's son can't even keep his promise? Then I'll go back and ask your father how he taught you! "
Link said with a ashamed expression, "I'm very sorry, Marquis Metallon. It's just that I was too impatient, and I don't think I was wrong. "
He looked stubbornly at Allen.
Metallon shook his head and said to Allen, "I understand that you are willing to fight for His Highness, and I am even more happy that His Highness has a man like you who is willing to fight for her." But Mr. Allen, Link has a bad temper and is a little stubborn. But his father is Lei Beth, one of the five dukes of our empire. If you really hurt him, it might not be a good thing for you and His Highness. "
Allen was obedient and immediately said, "I admit that I was a little reckless just now, but if Mr. Link still intends to use force to take Lucy away, then I will not change my mind!"
"If I don't use force, how do I know if you are qualified to protect His Highness? If I don't use force, can I rely on my mouth? "Link also refused to budge an inch.
Metallon suddenly felt that he was so old that he couldn't even suppress the two brats. He immediately snorted, "You can fight, but you have to abide by the rules I set. If you are willing to abide by them, then hold a fair duel in front of everyone. "
"That's exactly what I want." Link raised his head and said, "What do you say? Let's fight again. If I win, it means that you don't have the strength to protect His Highness. His Highness must come with me. "
"I will fight you, but I will not gamble with Lucy's fate. If she wants to go back, I won't stop her. But if she wants to stay, whoever wants to take her away will have to step over my corpse first! "Allen said coldly," Her freedom is not for you or me to interfere! "
"You …"
Link wanted to say something else, but Metallon interrupted him and said, "According to Allen, this duel is only to test whether he has the strength to protect His Highness. As for whether His Highness leaves or stays, it is not up to you or Lei Beth to decide! "
Link could only nod in agreement.
The duel was scheduled for half an hour from now, and the location was the training ground of the camp. Metallon's rules were very simple. He could not use Origin Energy, let alone projection. He could only use combat skills to knock down his opponent. If anyone violated the rules, he would be considered defeated. This rule was fair to Allen, so there was no need to worry about his opponent's Origin Energy level surpassing his own. As for combat skills, Allen had absolute confidence in himself.
Hearing that Allen was going to duel with Link, the entire camp exploded. The training ground of the camp was already packed with people in less than three minutes. In the end, Roddy drove some of them away to give the envoys of Adahua Planet room to watch the battle. Originally, it was just an impulsive collision between two young people, but now, it was a matter of honor and disgrace for both sides. The vulture soldiers naturally didn't want Allen to lose, and the envoys of Adahua Planet didn't think the same.
The news even spread to other parts of the stronghold, so people rushed over one after another. There were people from the Federation and other envoys from Adahua Planet. For this reason, Roddy could only clear the field again and drive the soldiers out to make room for the latecomers. As for the soldiers who had been cleared out of the arena, they did not leave. They gathered at the door and even outside the windows, not wanting to miss this duel.
Reina, who had just finished training the soldiers, also came to the training ground. He found his father and frowned, "What the hell is Allen doing?"
Roddy whistled and put his hand on Reina's shoulder. "Son, you have to learn from Allen. Look at how romantic it is to challenge the Earl of Adahua Planet for His Highness. It's a man. He has to do this kind of romantic thing a few times in his life before he can move a woman to death. "
Reina pushed his father away, "When did you know about romance?"
"You're right. Go back and ask your mother how I managed to woo her back then."
Reina rolled his eyes at him and didn't want to continue talking to him. In a corridor outside the training ground, Lucy was putting on protective gear for Allen. Although they didn't use Origin Energy, both sides had plenty of ways to injure others with martial arts alone, so the necessary protection was still needed. Originally, Allen could have worn his newly purchased armor, the Eternal Guardian, but he still wore the regular protective gear of the training ground. After all, Metallon had already stipulated that he wouldn't use Origin Energy, so he could be considered to be quite protective of him. If he used the Eternal Guardian again, it would ruin Metallon's good intentions.
Lucy said as she put on Allen's armor, "Archduke Reibis is a swordsmanship expert. Although Link rarely fights with others, I believe his swordsmanship shouldn't be too bad. You have to be careful."
Allen nodded and said, "I thought you would stop me."
