Tomad walked out of the crowd with vigorous steps, a gentle and polite smile on his face. Lena Basten cast a look of thanks at him, then took two steps away, completely leaving the battlefield to the young man with a pair of golden eyes. Grand Knight Commander Hue Bo observed this new opponent calmly. Reiner Basten is a cunning old fox, but no matter how cunning the fox is, it can't compete with the tiger. As for the guy from the Falcon Mercenary Group just now, mistaking rashness for courage is not his biggest mistake, but it can't even measure up against each other. He didn't even have a vision for strength, but it was a mistake that could kill someone. Tomad is different from them all. He did not rashly draw his sword and use ridiculously weak fighting spirit to show his strength; nor did he hesitate, letting the so-called careful consideration wear away the courage in his heart again and again. He just stood there neither humble nor arrogant, with his right hand touching his chest, performing a unique ritual with religious meaning. "Grand Knight Commander Hubert, please accept my challenge." This was the second time this sentence was raised in person. Grand Knight Commander Hubert's hard jaw moved slightly and he said in a straightforward tone, "I'm not here." I see traces of fighting spirit on your body." "I'm not a knight." "You don't carry a staff, and you don't have a magic ring on your hand." "I'm not a magician either." After touching it, I couldn't tell whether it was a too hidden smile or a silent curse. "Then what reason do I have to accept your challenge?" He asked coldly. "Are the information channels of the Tianping Chamber of Commerce no longer so well-informed?" Tomad shrugged his shoulders easily, "Grand Knight Commander Huber, do you really not know what I have done?" "You're a fool. "Dap Onits, who killed the alligator," Grand Knight Captain Huber said in a positive tone, "The strength of the Orc Roaring Warrior is equivalent to that of the Grand Knight. If you can kill that guy, you are indeed qualified to challenge me." . But before that" The broad-blade sword was raised again, pointing at Tomad's chest, "Are you ready to embrace death?" "No." Tomad's shoulder moved silently. He slipped out of the scabbard and said, "Lord Hubble, I thought this was just a test, not a life-or-death duel." "My sword doesn't think so." After saying these words, Knight Commander Hubble suddenly kicked the ground with his right foot and moved his body towards the ground. While charging forward, the broad-bladed sword swung out a fierce arc of light from top to bottom. This sword was merciless, more fierce and vicious than the time when he split the young warrior of the Falcon Mercenary Group in half. Tomad slid back quickly, letting the whistling sword blade pass by the tip of his nose. Then he sank his right wrist and stabbed the opponent's ribs with the sword of lightning like lightning. . Knight Huber raised his sword to defend, but he did not expect that Tomad would do his best in the first counterattack. The broad-blade sword and the gryphon sword collided violently, shooting out a dazzling spark. Knight Commander Huber's wrist was a little numb, so he had to take a half step back, preparing to reorganize the offensive. Tomad did not give him this chance. The gryphon sword burst out with a shining sword light, and the sword wind filled the eardrums of every spectator. Tomad used the attack methods he learned from the bloody sisters, and his steps were as nimble as a leopard, moving left and right. , each sword caught the weakest point in the defense of the great knight captain Hu Bo, forcing him to defend with all his strength, and it was difficult to even find a chance to counterattack. No one cheered in admiration, because everyone who witnessed this wonderful confrontation was stunned. The Grand Knight Captain Huber's offense was unparalleled, and his defense was like an iron wall. No one among the senior adventurers present could do it better than him. But after all, he was wearing heavy armor, and it always took a little time to adjust when switching between offense and defense. This little time was firmly grasped by Tomad, and the Griffin Sword tore apart Xiuboda again and again. The flaw exposed by the knight captain forced him to interrupt his attack and switch to defense. The confrontation between Tomad and Grand Knight Commander Huber lasted only three minutes, but in the hearts of most people, it lasted longer than an hour. After a particularly fierce flash of swords and swords, the two of them retreated. When they took two steps, more than one person exhaled a breath that had been holding in their chest for a long time. It seems that both of them are unscathed. The cloak on Tomad's shoulder was cut open, revealing the hard leather shoulder pads he wore underneath. In addition, the outside of his right leg was also swept by the sword edge. If the sword mark was half a centimeter deeper, it would probably be broken. It wasn¡¯t just the shafts of the calfskin boots that fell off. There were more scars on the body of the Grand Knight Commander Hu Bo. The armor on his chest and under his ribs had shiny dents left by the sword's edge. Half of the scale decoration on his helmet was cut off. At the same time, there were also large pieces of armor that fell to the ground. The knight's long lock of white hair. "Excellent swordsmanship, continuous offensive, it is difficult to find opportunities to counterattack, but lacks the means to deliver a fatal blow." The mood of the knight commander Xiuber did not seem to be dissatisfied, but became very interested, even the pair of The deeply sunken eyes are no longer cold and heartless. "It's been a long time since I've been suppressed in swordsmanship, but if I start again now, I won't step into your trap so easily." He said with appreciation while putting away the broad-bladed sword. "If you use the power of fighting spirit, the situation of the battle just now will be reversed." Tomad also put away the gryphon sword and tried his best to hide his trembling wrist. "And the attacking side always consumes more energy. You were at a disadvantage just now. In fact, I can't break through your defense at all." "If I use the power of fighting spirit, it will not be a good thing for both of us." Grand Knight Captain Huber pointedly said, "Thomas Ann, I just intend to test your skills, but I don't intend to engage in a life-and-death duel." "Then have I passed your test?" " Of course, Captain Tomad, your performance is very good." "Thank you very much for your trust, Master Shubo." Tomad nodded slightly, "But my mercenary group is short of manpower. I'm afraid it won't be able to meet the needs of escorting the merchant group. "So there is another mercenary group that passed my test, albeit from another aspect." Grand Knight Xiu Bo gave up a scary smile, and then turned his gaze to Lie. That leader. "The Sons of Flame will get an employment contract, and the reward is 3,000 gold coins. The condition is that you send at least one hundred elite mercenaries and five quasi-knights." A light flashed in Captain Lena's eyes, "It's very generous. "The reward, Grand Knight Xue Bo, but I want to ask more, how much reward do youor the Tianping Chamber of Commerce plan to give to Captain Tomad?" "It's the same as Son of Flame, 3,000 gold coins." "But they only have three. Personally." There was no anger in Captain Lena's tone, he was just stating the plain facts. "Actually, the employment contract of the Tianping Chamber of Commerce only includes Tomad An himself." Grand Knight Huber replied coldly. "He alone is worth more than the one hundred elite mercenaries of the Sons of Flame?" Captain Lena had an expression of disapproval on his face, but Tomad did not see the same emotion appear on the light blue pair. Inside the colored eyes. "Grand Knight Commander Hubert, Captain Thomas didn't defeat you just now." "This matter has nothing to do with victory or defeat." Grand Knight Commander Hubert said, when those eyes returned to coldness, even if it was Captain Lena did not dare to look at him for a long time. "Captain Tomad showed me his belief with the sword in his hand, and you used your concession and forbearance. I agree with your choice, Lena." Captain, but I won¡¯t give you a higher reward.¡± Captain Lena thought quietly for half a minute. Tomad suspected that his gesture was entirely for others to see, because the gray-haired old man never thought of rejecting this lucrative contract from beginning to end. But if he agrees straight away, I'm afraid there will be many dissatisfied voices within the Sons of Flame. It¡¯s different now. The hurtful words came from the mouth of Grand Knight Captain Hubert. Even if someone was dissatisfied, they would not directly point the finger at their captain. As for the Grand Knight Captain Xiuber, he doesn't even care about the complaints from the Sons of Flame mercenary group. With his identity and strength, he is not a threat to ordinary adventurers. "Son of Flame accepts this employment contract." Captain Lena said slowly after making a thoughtful appearance, "I will let you see the true value of Son of Flame. He is not a simpleton with excellent swordsmanship." The boy can compare." "Really? Then I look forward to seeing it." Grand Knight Commander Hu Bo replied in a low voice, returning to his tired and cold look, "Get ready as soon as possible, the business group will arrive early tomorrow morning. Tatarchuk, and then rest for a day before setting off. The deposit will be handed over to you before departure." Watching the figure of Grand Knight Commander Huber disappear from the side door, Tomad quickly glanced at Garcia behind the counter. , and then nodded friendly towards Commander Lena, "It seems that we have been together for a while, Commander Lena." "I am honored." Lena Basten replied softly, "This mission may not be possible. It¡¯s not as easy as it seems, Captain Tomad, if you don¡¯t object, can we find a place where the ale is more fragrant?¡±
