PS: This chapter says that it has been restored. Please comment on it. It's so painful to be alone.
The knights didn't just take away their squires, they also took away the morale of Matthew Bard's army.
Soon after, the appearance of the Green Knight caused panic in Matthew Bard's army. The rogue knights, rebellious serfs, and despicable bandits who gathered in Matthew Bard's army couldn't help but feel panic in their hearts when they saw the Green Knight.
The legend of the Green Knight was a myth that every Brittany was familiar with. When the embodiment of chivalry appeared in front of everyone, all the Brittany knights felt incomparably excited, while the people who followed Matthew Bard were shrouded in fear.
A green warhorse stepped out of the formation and the Green Knight spoke.
"Son of Lauen Leo Cornwall, you have been shrouded in a lie from the beginning. You once had noble virtues and outstanding martial arts, but you didn't use them in the right place. You were blinded by hatred and lies. Because of you, countless people have died. In order to stop you, countless knights have sacrificed their lives. You cannot be forgiven." The Green Knight slowly said, "The only way to save you is to completely destroy you. I hereby announce that you are stripped of all Brittany titles and citizenship. You are no longer a citizen of this country."
The Green Knight's words caused waves of restlessness in Matthew Bard's army.
This time, whether it was the rogue knights, the rebellious serfs, or the bandits who made a living by robbing, they all felt fear and were shaken.
Matthew Bard had always regarded himself as the son of Duke Lauen, the regent of the kingdom, and the rightful Duke of Musiron. He had also used these identities to make such promises to the humans. It was because of this that these people followed him.
But today's situation made them feel fear and betrayal. The real Duke of Musiron was Laing, not Matthew Bard. And the Green Knight's words destroyed the validity of Matthew Bard's promise.
He had even lost his status as a Brittany citizen. How could he become king? How could he fulfill his promise?
Some people began to gradually retreat.
Matthew Bad's army was formed very quickly, and he easily attracted a large number of people to work for him. That was because he could make promises. Speculators naturally flocked to him. In this dark age, there was never a lack of people who wanted to obtain a higher status and more power.
However, these people came and went quickly. When there were benefits, they were as excited as sharks who smelled blood. And when they knew that Matthew Bard couldn't give them more, they would never be willing to risk their lives for Matthew Bard's revenge.
Matthew Bard sensed all of this....... Matthew Bard's Viper's heart was burned by the flames of revenge.
... Matthew Matthew Matthew Bard's hypocrisy.. Matthew Bard Matthew Bard Matthew Matthew Bard Matthew Bard Matthew Matthew Bard Matthew Matthew Matthew Bard Matthew Bard Matthew Bard
The flames of anger burned in his heart. Matthew Bad knew that he had to do something. Otherwise, his army would be in danger of collapsing. Mu Xilong's Viper drew his Viper Sword from his waist.
"Ha! Very good! " Matthew Bard laughed wildly and said in a shrill voice, "It seems that we have reached an agreement on this issue. No matter what, one of us must die. The only difference is whether we will fall or you will become my servants."
"Send out your champion!!" Matthew Bard turned his gaze towards the Brittany's army of knights. His eyes were filled with an inexplicable emotion. Mu Xilon's Viper knew that it would be disadvantageous for him to force a battle when the morale of the army was still unstable. However, it did not matter because he firmly believed that the Brittany would not be willing to fight this war. There was one rule in the spirit of the knights, and that was that the knights had to agree to a duel (with the additional conditions being that their status was equal and the timing was right).
He raised the Viper Sword in his hand and pointed it at the Knight's Path army: "I request for a duel between the champions! Send out your champion! Let's have a real championship match! Only the winner deserves to own this country! "
Many knights were dissatisfied with Matthew Bad's arrogant challenge, but most of them could only glare at him angrily. This was because this poisonous snake had completed more than 30 duels in a row on his way to Colona. More than 30 royal knights, expeditionary knights, and even Grail knights had fallen under his sword.
Ma Xiubad, who had completely integrated with the power of the black Grail Knight, had now steadily reached the mid-Sanctuary realm. He was no longer an opponent that could be easily challenged. If he were to go up and fight Ma Xiubad now, it would undoubtedly be asking for humiliation and death.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the center of the formation.
Under such circumstances, there were only four people who could represent Brittany.
The Chosen of the Lake Fairy, Laing Macado.
Knight King Richard.
A direct descendant of the first Knight King Arthur, the Red Dragon Duke Berchemund, who had a high status.
And the most mysterious Green Knight.
Among them, Richard was automatically eliminated from the minds of all the knights. If Richard was young, he could be considered a brave knight, but now he was too old. He was so old that many of the knights wondered if he would be defeated by Matthew Bard's sword.
Richard was also very self-aware. He shook his head slightly at Laing, meaning to leave it all to him.
Berchemund also shook his head. Although the Red Dragon Duke wanted to smash Ma Xiubad into a pulp, he still controlled himself. He gave up the opportunity to fight the champion because it was not suitable.
Just like that, there were only two candidates left.
At this time, the Green Knight spoke. His voice was as ethereal as a dream. The Green-eyed King said to Laing, "Successor of Landuin, champion of the Lady's Chosen of the Lake Fairy, it's time to end all of this."
"Yes, it's time to end all of this." Laing did not decline. Duke Musiron took over the championship match with an indisputable identity.
He would face Ma Xiubad directly.
Along the way, Ryan received the cheers of the knights. The will of the Chosen Champion of the Fairy of the Lake was unparalleled, and his authority was inviolable. The light and heat of the miracle shone on his handsome face, and his black hair that was parted in the middle swayed gently in the breeze.
Laing also did not want to decide the winner through a big battle outside of Colona. Ma Xiubad's request for a championship match was something he could not ask for more. Ma Xiubad must have thought the same.
Now, the two men faced each other. They dismounted and stood on the banks of the Sannes River, looking at each other. Laing and Ma Xiubad met on the way to the banquet in Bordero. It had been eight years since then.
The river flowed, grass and wildflowers were everywhere on the plains. In front of the two armies, Laing and Ma Xiubad finally faced each other. Laing held the Vengeance. "We meet again."
The wind blew, and the water flowed. The wind stopped, but the sound of the water continued.
"Yes, we meet again. I've always felt that we are very similar." A faint smile appeared on Ma Xiubad's handsome face. He was not wearing a helmet. Staring at Laing's face, Musiron's venomous snake calmed down. "Don't you think so?"
"No." Laing shook his head. "You are the scum of the knights."
"Is that so? Is that what you think? " "I feel that we're very similar. We're both abandoned children. You were thrown into the snowy lands of Nord, and I was thrown into the wilderness of the Kurona Road," Matthew Bard said with a smile as he moved sideways.
"You were very lucky. You were picked up by Norman, the Lord of Orteny in Nord. He adopted you and named you Laing. I was also very lucky. I was picked up by the Lich King Akhan and named Ma Xiubad."
"We both grew up in this environment. You became a White Wolf Knight in Nord, and I became a knight-errant in the Duchy of Connet. We both fought for ourselves. You became famous in Nord because of your bravery, and I won the title of Paladin because of my excellent martial arts and so-called virtues."
"Yes, from this point alone, we are very similar." Laing did not refute this. He tightened his grip on the hilt of the Vengeance. "But you still went astray."
"Astray in your eyes?" Ma Xiubad also tightened his grip on his viper sword. He did not want to argue anymore. He just continued the topic. "Before I met you, I always thought that I should be the main character of this story. I saw the truth of your goddess. I understood everything. My Godfather told me my background. From then on, I swore that I would take revenge on this country. I must save this country from a big lie. This is my revenge."
Laing's heart skipped a beat. He knew how Ma Xiubad found out about the true identity of the goddess in the lake. It was obviously arranged by the Lich King Akhan. However, he said cleverly, "Your way of saving this country is to get close to Suria and then participate in the knight's assembly?"
"That's only one part of the plan." Ma Xiubad nodded. "Pursuing Suria is not a necessary condition, but it can bring great help to my plan. At that time, I thought about it a lot. It is not easy to pursue a noble lady like Suria, because she must have very high standards as the daughter of a duke. I must seize the only opportunity."
"So you will participate in the knight's assembly." Laing expressed that he understood. "Winning the knight's assembly is one of the few opportunities to move Suria. You know very well."
"But everything was taken by you." Ma Xiubad's eyes became bitter again. His tone was full of hatred. "You met Suria earlier than I did, and you made her see you in a new light. If you were not seriously injured in the battle with the Nurgle demon, Suria would not have been able to break through her limits under the stimulation of extreme emotions. She would not have been able to defeat me."
"So, it's my fault?" Laing was still calm. He motioned for Ma Xiubad to continue.
"After that, everything began. You repeatedly thwarted my plans. You repeatedly destroyed the plans that Godfather and I had meticulously designed. It's all because of you!" Ma Xiubad also knew that Laing was known for his firm will and piety. It was unlikely that a few words would shake him. "But, it doesn't matter now. I will defeat you here. I will enter Culona, the Holy Grail Cathedral, and expose that bitch's lies! I swear! "
"Until now, you still refuse to realize your mistake." Laing sighed. He suddenly said, "Have you ever thought that maybe it was not a coincidence that you were adopted by the Lich King Akhan? He was just using you, using your bloodline, using your hatred, and at the same time … using your power? "
"Of course I know." Ma Xiubad would not be shaken by Laing's words. He just chuckled and said, "Godfather, he … does things with a purpose. The starting point of all his actions is to serve his master. Yes, perhaps Godfather did use me, but without him, I might have died in the wilderness. He raised me, and I am very grateful to him. Compared to that person, it was Godfather who saved me. Everything I have was given to me by Godfather. I can be used because I have value. I want to take revenge on that person. I want to expose the lies of this kingdom for thousands of years. I am willing to be used by him."
Laing knew that the "person" Ma Xiubad was referring to was the seriously injured and missing Ron, Ma Xiubad's biological father.
"I have always believed that I can be used because I have value. That is enough." Ma Xiubad's body emitted a black aura of death. He had completely absorbed the power, combat skills, and experience of the Black Grail Knight. "I can't wait that long. Everything I do is for revenge. Without Godfather's help, how long would I have to accumulate power to complete my revenge? It was Godfather who gave me this opportunity. "
"What right do you have to criticize me? Laing Macado? " Ma Xiubad's voice became playful. "If it wasn't for that bitch who lent you a helping hand at the critical moment, you might have lost the championship match. Look at yourself now. If it wasn't for that bitch's full support, would you be able to carry out your reform so smoothly? You could have become a duke after coming here for ten years? "
"No one is more noble than the other, Laing." Ma Xiubad summed up everything. His voice was vicious. "In the end, we will all become the people we used to hate the most."
"Viper." Laing sighed after hearing this. "You are not likable at all … The strange thing is, I can't hate you. Yes, we are very similar. It's just that we are in different camps and standpoints."
Vengeance was slowly unsheathed, and silver flames burned in the air.
"This is Sir Landuin's last wish …"
"I must pull Mu Xilong and Brittany back from the abyss of the undead." The blade turned, and a light blue light flickered.
"So, Viper, I must kill you! It's useless to say more. Let's fight! "
"Yes, let's fight!"
Almost at the same time, Laing and Ma Xiubad charged at each other. The sound of Vengeance and the Viper Sword colliding rang out!
The battle for the throne had begun!
