Flowing Ki Wild stood at the side and maintained a faint smile, as if he didn't hear Keno's bad words about Xiao Ran. His eyes swept over Keno from time to time, and the smile hidden in his eyes became more obvious. However, this kind of smile was not happy or happy, but more like a smile, similar to the kind of smile a hunter would have when he found his prey.
Keno did not know that his words had offended Ryukino, nor did he know about the relationship between Xiao Ran, Zhui, and Euphemia. Xiao Ran and Euphemia were not master and servant, nor was it a normal superior and subordinate relationship. It was more like an employment relationship. Xiao Ran had the right to leave at any time if he was dissatisfied, and Euphemia did not want Xiao Ran to leave at this time. Therefore, both sides were on equal footing. Keno's words not only offended Zhui, but also made Euphemia a little unhappy. However, as the Princess and the Governor, she could not directly scold Keno on this point.
Ryukino smiled and said to Euphemia softly, "Your Highness, if the competition and assessment are what these two knights want, then your knight has already agreed. I also think that with so many things happening in the 11th District, it is necessary to use this competition as a show to show the powerful military force of the Empire to the rebels in the 11th District. As for Sir Knight, I think Your Highness should not worry about him."
"Knights of the Round Table like Knight Keno, even if there were 10 more of them, they would not be a match for that knight. Furthermore, he has to be responsible for his arrogance and rudeness."
Euphemia knew that Xiao Ran and Zhui were very close, but she did not know how close they were. In front of her, Xiao Ran and Zhui did not show any attitude that went beyond the normal relationship between a man and a woman, so after hearing Zhui's words, she was stunned for a moment. She then turned to look at Keno and Ania, and nodded in silence.
After Roki Nokuo finished speaking, he maintained his smile and said to Keno, "You will soon know that in fact, your confidence and your pride are not worth mentioning at all. Pride without strength is just a joke, and the modesty that a knight should have cannot be experienced from you. You are just like the majority of Butarians, looking down on people with lower status than you, and you look down on numbered people even more. However, this is the 11th District, a place that strives to achieve harmony and equality for all. You had better rein in your arrogance."
Keno's brows furrowed tightly. He looked at Ryukino and then at Euphemia. In his heart, he felt that the previous Knight Xiao and the current Officer of the Flowing Wood Field were just ordinary people. How could both of them be so unscrupulous? They even dared to say such rude words to their master. It was really rude of them. Furthermore, they were lecturing him, a Knight of the Round Table, who was not an ordinary person.
However, after Ryukino spoke, Euphemia remained expressionless. She had no intention of stopping Zhui at all, which made Keno understand a little. After a moment of silence, he raised his head and smiled brightly at Euphemia and Ryukino. "Sorry, I was too rude. I apologize to both of you and Knight Xiao for my rudeness. I hope you can forgive me, but I still insist that as a knight, I must abide by the rules of being a subject. I cannot do anything beyond my authority."
"No, he is not my subject." Euphemia took a small step forward, stared at Keno, and said word by word, "Mr. Knight is my guardian, the only guardian. He and I are equal. Do you understand, Keno Beinbrook, Knight of the Round Table?"
"Yes." Keno was stunned. He took a deep breath, put his hand on his chest, and bowed. "I understand. Please excuse me for leaving for a moment. I need to make some preparations for the upcoming examination."
Euphemia nodded gently. "Go, Zhui. Let these guests rest first. Otherwise, it would be rude to stand and wait here."
"Yes, Your Highness." Ryukino smiled slightly. He glanced at Keno, who turned around and left, and Ania, who nodded and left with Keno at the same time. He shook his head, turned around, and waved to the people behind him. When someone ran over quickly, he arranged the preparations for the examination. At least now, there were so many people, and they could not wait under the sun. It was necessary to find a cool place to prepare chairs and water.
In the beginning, no one knew what was going on. Originally, the arrangements for the next step and a later welcome reception were disrupted. They were directly arranged to wait in the military airport terminal for no reason. But not long after, what was going to happen next slowly spread. For a while, everyone knew that Euphemia's exclusive knight had a conflict with Emperor Charles's Knights of the Round Table. A competition would be held at the military airport.
At this time, the whole terminal began to become lively, waiting for the start of the competition excitedly. Some people felt that Euphemia's knight was too ignorant. Who was he to challenge the most powerful Knights of the Round Table? He even had a conflict with a Knight of the Round Table. They felt that Knight Xiao should be taught a lesson.
This idea occupied almost half of the people. Among the remaining half, some were simply watching the fun. It did not matter who won or lost. The last part of the people stood on Xiao Ran's side. They also felt that the Knights of the Round Table were not that great. They wanted to defeat him and show the bravery of District 11.
But there were also some people who, after knowing about the competition between Xiao Ran and the Knights of the Round Table, were not optimistic about the famous Knights of the Round Table. Instead, they were optimistic about Xiao Ran, who was only a little famous as Euphemia's knight. These people were also the people who really understood Xiao Ran's strength, such as Jeremiah, the pilots of the Freikorps, and Loide.
But for some reason, the competition between Xiao Ran and Keno was more related to whether Xiao Ran could become a Knight of the Round Table. After the news was leaked, many people began to have some special changes in their thinking. They suddenly felt that it was not that simple for Knight Xiao to start the assessment of the Knights of the Round Table. However, one was the examiner, and the other was the examinee. The people who thought that Keno would win still occupied the majority.
Originally, many people thought that this news was shocking enough. The exclusive knight of Her Highness Euphemia was qualified to become a Knight of the Round Table. However, even more shocking news quickly spread throughout the terminal. All the news gradually began to spread through the news, such as the extremely shocking news that Knight Xiao would challenge two Knights of the Round Table at the same time.
Xiao Ran informed Loide. Without hesitation, Loide immediately asked someone to send Lancelot to Xiao Ran. Then, he ran near Euphemia and took several binoculars. He gave one each to Suzaku, Suzaku, and Cecil, and waited expectantly.
Although this guy was passionate about technology, he was also passionate about liveliness. As long as it was related to the liveliness of a battle between mecha like KF, and it was possible to join in the liveliness, there would be no time when this guy would not appear. It was not known why a technician who specialized in technology research and mecha development would like to join in the liveliness so much.
After Lancelot was sent over, the exclusive mecha of the two Knights of the Round Table also stood in the empty space of the airport. Loide also ran to Xiao Ran's side. At the same time, Suzaku, Cecil, Jeremiah, and Veletta also came over. Further behind, all the Freikorps pilots were there. As for the rest of the people who were not on duty, basically all of them were there. They stood silently by the side and cheered for Xiao Ran.
Loide and Xiao Ran walked onto the transport vehicle together. While controlling the computer to unlock Lancelot, he asked, "Are you confident?"
Xiao Ran glanced at Loide and said, "What do you think?"
Loide laughed and said, "I'm just thinking that it's best to save some face for these two kids. One is 17 years old, the other is 15 years old. It's not easy to become a Knight of the Round Table. If the shock is too big, it'll be hard for them to recover."
"Heh." Xiao Ran laughed a little strangely and said, "It's not hard to save face, but I must win this competition. This is related to whether I can become a Knight of the Round Table or not. Do you want to tell me how long Lancelot can withstand my operation?"
Loide pushed his glasses and blinked. Suddenly, he said, "Lancelot's new weapon can be used. It's a new electromagnetic cannon. Do you want to test it? If it's you, I think that even if you use this new weapon, it won't hurt the pilot."
"No need." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "Forget it, just use a normal weapon. Have you finished checking the mecha? Are there any problems?"
"Yes." Loide glanced at the screen and said, "Then just use a rifle. After you used Lancelot last time, I had someone repair and strengthen it. This time, it should last you ten minutes."
"A few minutes is enough." Xiao Ran waved his hand. Without even changing his clothes, he grabbed a headset from the table and put it next to his ear. He walked a few steps to the open cockpit, jumped lightly, reached out his hand, and sat directly on the driver's seat. With a pull of his hand, the cockpit was directly retracted into the mecha.
Quickly opening the mecha's system, Xiao Ran once again began to adjust the Lancelot that he had driven before. Once again, he upgraded the Lancelot to its maximum state.
Raising his hand and tapping the headset next to his ear, Xiao Ran said, "Loide, the mecha has been adjusted. There should be no problem with the mecha's feedback, right? Also, are you sure it can really last ten minutes? "
"Everything is normal here." Loide's voice sounded in Xiao Ran's ear. After all, although Lancelot was almost finished and announced to the public that it was completely completed, it was still just a test mecha. Loide would record as long as there was an opportunity to attack.
"Ten minutes is just an estimate. In short, eight minutes is safer. This time, it's two Knights of the Round Table who have the best piloting ability. Eight minutes against two people. Even if I know your ability, isn't it still a little risky? Why don't you test the new weapon while you're at it? I promise that as long as it hits, the battle will be over in one shot. "
"If I use that kind of thing, that arrogant kid will think that I have an unfair advantage." Xiao Ran smiled leisurely and said, "I'm ready to break his pride and let these two little guys know that even Knights of the Round Table have to tuck their tails between their legs in District 11."
Xiao Ran gently pushed his hand, and Lancelot stood up from the fixed frame. It walked steadily and slowly towards the two mecha that were already standing on the open ground.
When Xiao Ran drove the mecha away from the loading vehicle, Suzaku also quickly started the vehicle and rushed away from the test site at the fastest speed. It was not until they were far away from the test site that they stopped the vehicle. Together with Loide and Cecil, they stood in the vehicle with the best view and raised their binoculars.
When Xiao Ran entered the test site, Euphemia's voice sounded in the universal channel, "Mr. Knight, are you ready?"
"Ready."
Euphemia's voice was a little serious, "Good, Mr. Knight. Please be careful and don't let yourself get hurt. Now that the two Knights of the Round Table are ready, I will supervise this test. If there are no problems, I will give the signal to start in thirty seconds."
"No problem." Xiao Ran saw a magnified image from the side of the screen. Euphemia was currently standing in the control room of the terminal with a microphone in her hand. She was looking in this direction with a worried expression on her face.
Xiao Ran withdrew his gaze and looked at the two mecha in front of him. One was mainly painted in blue and white. It had a huge backpack and an eagle. Its body was more graceful and had the ability to transform and fly in the air. It was a mecha that pursued maneuverability and close combat. To some extent, this mecha with the ability to fight in the air was also a natural counter to Lancelot who currently did not have the ability to fly. This was a natural suppression of air to ground, not a problem of the mecha's performance.
The second mecha was a heavy red mecha. Whether it had the ability to fly or not was unknown, but it had two shoulder shields that looked like balance wings. Its heavy armor and conspicuous cannon were obvious. At first glance, it was obvious that this was a heavy artillery mecha that pursued powerful firepower.
One in and one out, one in the air and one on the ground. If the two mecha could cooperate perfectly, it would be enough to suppress most targets of similar level. However, in front of Xiao Ran, it was meaningless no matter how perfect the two mecha's cooperation was.
As the thirty-second countdown ended, Euphemia's last words before the battle rang in Hao Ren's ears, "Mr. Knight, please be careful. This is just a test. Don't put yourself in a dangerous situation because of something like this. Whether it's you or them, it's best that no one gets hurt."
"Finally, the test … begins!"
