As everyone knew, the Eagle Wing Sword was the king's sword passed down from generation to generation in the Eagle Kingdom. Only by mastering the Eagle Wing Sword could one truly activate the three Eagle artifacts. Only by mastering the power comparable to that of the gods could one truly be worthy of the title of "descendant of the Eagle" and be able to support this country.
In other words, the Eagle Wing Sword was the symbol of the king of the Eagle Kingdom. The one who mastered the Eagle Wing Sword might not necessarily be the king, but if he did not even know how to use the Eagle Wing Sword, he was definitely not a qualified king.
Leon Igor was the only living child of the previous king. In terms of the legal system, he had unquestionable inheritance rights. In addition, he was powerful and had mastered the Eagle Wing Sword. It could be said that as long as he was willing, it was completely logical for him to inherit the throne. It was almost impossible for him to encounter any substantial resistance.
In this case, of course, he was qualified to give orders to the entire Eagle Kingdom. In fact, when the eagle spread its wings and covered the sky, many old people who had followed the old king and seen the Eagle Wing Sword were stunned at first, and then they could not help but cry. Although the young people had never seen the Eagle Wing Sword, most of them understood its significance and were very excited.
"I think everyone should agree to let me represent the Eagle Kingdom in the duel." Leon waved his sword, and the light on his body became more and more intense. His momentum also rose. "Your Majesty, the question now is, are you going to fight in person? Or are you going to find someone to fight in your place? "
The battlefield gradually quieted down. Both the humans and the Orcs looked at the golden flag of the Orc Emperor.
What would the decision of the person under the flag be?
Would this war end in the most tragic strangulation, or would it end in a relatively gentle duel?
If it was a duel, who would win and who would lose?
Junero Tiger frowned deeply. He really did not think that he would actually encounter such a situation, and he was very hesitant for a moment.
With his strength, he was confident that he would not lose to the other party. Even if the young man was a strong person at the peak of the legendary realm and had an artifact that could enhance his strength, he was not the least bit afraid.
However, he really did not want to fight.
Although he was a top master, Junero advocated the power of the group, and was an outstanding leader who led the public with wisdom and charm. In his opinion, a king should always be in line with the masses and should never rush out to fight one-on-one battles. That was why when he participated in the Golden Tent Tournament of the Orcs and fought for the throne, he would rather spend several times more time and energy to convince the various powerful ones than to convince them with his own power. That was his philosophy.
Experts at his level were quite stubborn in their pursuit of ideals. Only by adhering to one's own ideals and finding a suitable point within the world's origin would one be able to obtain Godhood and complete the crucial step of becoming a god. This process was the unification of one's personality and godhood, the process of transcending mortality and entering sainthood.
Junero had worked hard for a long time. He was not willing and could not destroy his long-term efforts for a mere victory in a war.
But … the Beastmen's culture was one of martial prowess, and they respected those brave and outstanding men the most. Leon Igor openly challenged him, and if he avoided the fight, it would greatly damage his morale.
"Your Majesty, let me duel with him!" The voice of the elder of the Saint Church came to his ears. "I will not lose to him!"
Junero laughed bitterly and shook his head secretly.
In terms of strength, this elder did not lose to his opponent. But after all, he was old. Whether it was the possibility of another breakthrough in a fierce battle or his endurance after a fierce battle, it was worrying.
Moreover … the crux of the problem was not whether he could win or not, but that he did not want to use this method to decide the outcome of the war!
He lowered his head and pondered for a long time. Finally, he showed a determined expression, raised his head, and said loudly, "I refuse your invitation to duel. If you want to rely on your courage to save the situation, then come to me yourself! "
As soon as this was said, the crowd was in an uproar.
In this world, it was a widely recognized tradition for the strong to decide things through duels. It was the embodiment of the spirit of romanticism, and it could also greatly reduce unnecessary damage. Generally speaking, as long as the gap between the two parties was not too big, if one party proposed a duel, it would always be accepted.
But now, it was clear that the outcome of the two parties had not been completely determined, and it was the most suitable situation to use a duel to solve the problem. But the Orc Emperor had refused Prince Leon's invitation to duel, and even refused to send someone to fight on his behalf. This was completely contrary to the atmosphere of the whole society, and it was surprising.
The person who was most surprised was not others, but Leon himself. He did not expect that among the Orcs, who had always valued martial arts, there would be an emperor who would refuse a duel. Now that the other party refused to duel, it was a little embarrassing for him to fly in the air.
Junero Tiger did not let Leon be embarrassed for long. He waved his hand again and ordered the whole army to attack fiercely.
"Attack! Defeat the humans completely, let every one of them experience failure and despair, so that they can find no excuse to comfort themselves! I want to use a complete victory to lay the foundation for the long-term stability of the empire's new southern border! "
With this order, the morale of the Orc army, which had been slightly lowered because of his refusal to duel, once again let out a battle roar and continued to attack fiercely.
Seeing that the frontline of the humans was in danger, Leon frowned and finally made up his mind.
"Do you not dare to duel with me? Then I will do as you said and kill in front of you! "
As he said this, his whole body shone brightly, and he waved the Eagle Sword toward the flag of the Orc Emperor.
The white light bloomed, and the eagle wings spread out. The sword aura, like a huge eagle, whistled through the sky and rushed toward the golden flag that was astonishingly tall and big.
But before it rushed to the front of the flag, the Saint Hall elder had already appeared in front of the sword aura. He waved the Staff of Imprisonment, and a huge skeleton appeared in the air, blocking the sword aura of the eagle.
With a loud bang, the wind swept through the whole battlefield, and the Eagle Sword was blocked.
This scene greatly boosted the morale of the Orcs, and the humans were secretly shocked.
All along, the Eagle Sword had a good reputation of being invincible. Many times, when the army of the Eagle Kingdom was in danger, it was the king who had waved the Eagle Sword to defeat the enemy and turn the tide.
In the hearts of the people of the Eagle Kingdom, the Eagle Sword was invincible, a legend, and a belief!
But … the Eagle Sword had been blocked?!
At this moment, many people felt that even the sky was going to collapse, and their fighting spirit was gone in an instant. If it were not for the support of their hatred for the Orcs and the honor of being a warrior, they might have surrendered on the spot.
Leon was also shocked. He knew the power of the sword very well, but he did not expect that the old Orc, who looked so old that he was about to die, could take the sword so easily. He could not help but worry secretly.
At this moment, the Eagle Sword, the Eagle Crown, and the Eagle Clothing all shone brightly at the same time, and there was a strange sound in the sky.
The three artifacts resonated.
The next moment, Leon in the light had changed his appearance. He was wearing a gorgeous battle robe made of feathers, and under the battle robe was a golden chain armor. On his head was a feather crown, and the jewels on the crown were shining brightly, making his handsome face look like a god. He was holding a long sword that looked like a huge feather in his hand, and the body of the sword was constantly emitting electric light, which gathered around him into many electric eagles, circling around him and crying.
The most shocking thing was his aura. Before, no matter how strong he was, he always gave people the feeling that he was still a human. But now, the aura that he emitted was beyond the mortal world, and it was exactly the same as when the God of Knights had descended to the mortal world.
With the Eagle Sword as an opportunity and the legendary peak as the foundation, the three Eagle artifacts were completely awakened!
When the three artifacts were completely awakened, they would grant the descendants of Eagle great power — power that was enough to rival the gods!
Now, this power belonged to Prince Leon, the rightful heir of the Eagle Kingdom!
Leon slowly raised the Eagle Sword, which had completely changed, and looked at it in surprise.
The three artifacts had been completely awakened. This had not happened for a long time.
In the past, there were often kings who wielded the Eagle Sword, causing the three artifacts to resonate, and their power to increase exponentially. At that time, the three artifacts would also be awakened, but it would not be as earth-shaking as it was now. Thinking about this situation where the three artifacts were completely awakened, in his memory, it seemed that it had only happened a long, long time ago.
Just as the three Divine Weapons were fully awakened, in the secret room of the God of Eagle's temple, a bright flame was lit up in the middle of the many small lights. In the fire, a figure with an eagle crown, a long feather robe, and a long sword in his hand was faintly discernible.
The old priest and his two students knelt in the secret room and worshipped the fire.
"Our god! Are you finally coming back? "
But the figure was still blurry and did not become clear.
The old priest slowly raised his head, thought for a moment, and gently nodded.
"I understand! The reason why His Majesty cannot return is that his faith is too thin. Although he has a carrier, the thin faith is not enough to support his appearance. "
"Then what should we do?" One of the students, the current high priest, asked worriedly.
"There is no simple and fast way. We can only rely on us to slowly spread the word," the old priest said. "But, don't worry. Since silence has enough blood to carry His Majesty back, and His Majesty's most important divinity has also begun to awaken, it is only a matter of time. "
"I will not be able to see that day, but you are still young. Most importantly, the prince who can carry His Majesty back can still live for a very long time. " A smile appeared on his face. "Slowly work hard. Even if you can't see that day, there is still your students, your students' students … One day, we will meet again in His Majesty's Kingdom of God!"
The two students nodded solemnly, their hearts filled with passion.
The old priest smiled again and said, "In order to let His Majesty's faith spread as soon as possible, let this old man, who has been struggling at death's door until today, give his last bit of strength!"
As he said this, his body spontaneously combusted. From his feet to his head, he quickly turned into a ball of golden flame. He rushed towards the corner of the secret room, where a ball of fire was burning steadily.
In the next moment, Leon, who was in the sky above the battlefield, felt a strong surge of power from the three artifacts rushing into his body, causing his strength to greatly increase.
His eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, and his aura was so hot that it seemed like it was about to burn. The lightning on his sword could even light up the earth.
He smiled and looked at the Elder of the Saint Court.
"The real Eagle Wing Sword is coming," he said. "If you have the ability, try blocking it again!"
