Working Prophet

Edward II was also paying attention to the contest. When Ilea came on the stage, he even stood up from his seat with a wine glass in hand, excitedly waved his fists and roared.

"Come on, give that boy some color! You have hunted a giant dragon!"

Queen Heloise frowned upon hearing this.

She didn't expect that her little move would be caught by Edward II. The emperor glanced at her and said, "Why, do you have a different opinion?"

"No."

"Then why do you have a stinky face?"

"I'm not targeting Ilea, I just think this kind of competition is too cruel. Just yesterday plus this morning, thirty people died, including seven nobles, and even more were injured."

"What kind of competition is it if no one is killed?" Edward II said disapprovingly.

"This is a game for the brave. Every contestant puts his own honor and life on the line. Guys who talk about art and literature all day long will definitely not be able to understand."

"The tourney was banned by your ancestors more than four hundred years ago." The Elf Queen reminded.

"And I restored this ancient tradition." Edward II said proudly, "The empire has been at peace for too long, and people now have lost the blood and spirit of the founding of the country.

"Look at the Weiting family. They can't even rebel. What Hilda did was like a joke, a palace coup? How did he come up with it?

"I'd give him a thumbs up if he chose to fight straight from Crab Point. Maybe he could spare the lives of his descendants after defeating him. God, we need some fucking blood and guts right now! This It is also the reason why I reopened the tournament.

"If we can't accept these casualties, how can we go to the battlefield in the future?"

Heloise asked, "Isn't peace bad? Everyone is used to this kind of peaceful life now."

"Peace will not last forever." Edward II waved his hand.

A strange look flashed in the Elf Queen's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Moreover, Edward II's attention was no longer on her at this time.

Because Jose has already launched a charge below the stands.

And Ilea finally chose to fight the enemy on foot, which also made many people look surprised.

Edward II was also thinking about the deep meaning behind the girl's move. At this time, there was a loud bang in his ears.

Then, the galloping horse under Jose suddenly fell to the ground, and the knight on it was also thrown off the horse. Afterwards, he was unlucky enough to be crushed by his own horse.

Edward II's first reaction, like that of most of the audience present, was that he was stunned and did not understand what was going on.

He thought it was the loud noise and the inexplicable fire that frightened the war horse. However, although the horse fell to the ground and struggled hard, it never got up.

Instead, his movements gradually became smaller and smaller, and at the same time, a pool of blood appeared under his body.

Is this...injured? at what time?

Ilea was Edward II's favorite contestant. His Majesty the Emperor's eyes widened after she appeared on the stage, making sure that he had not missed anything, but he still didn't know how the horse fell.

Afterwards, a herbalist came forward to check Jose's injuries, and also took a look at his horse. Finally, he found a blood hole as thick as a finger on the horse's chest, but no arrows were found.

Miss Rabbit is really lucky today.

In fact, it is generally difficult to kill a creature like a horse with one shot. It has two fatal weaknesses.

One is the brain and the other is the heart.

But it is very difficult to hit the brain, because the horse's brain is not big, and the cross-section of the head is very narrow. Small-caliber firearms are not powerful enough and it is difficult to penetrate the skull.

In comparison, the heart is more reliable, but it is not so easy to aim while moving.

Miss Rabbit's original plan was actually to hit the horse's legs, but she was a little full from lunch and couldn't help but burped before shooting. With a shake of her little hand, she stopped going through the process and hit Jose's horse directly. Killed.

Although His Majesty the Emperor did not understand how the girl won, this did not prevent him from cheering after regaining consciousness.

And when Edward II made this move, the audience on the side also woke up from a dream, and started to cheer along in confusion.

As for what's good about it, no one can tell clearly, because it's too fast.

After the referee announced the winner, Ilea hung the duel pistol back on her belt, returned to the stands, and saluted the emperor and empress in turn.

Edward II seemed to be in a good mood and said, "It's a pity that your opponent in the first round was still too weak, so you couldn't show your full strength, but I still want to congratulate you on your victory."

Miss Rabbit hit the track while it was hot, "Then you can arrange a more powerful opponent for me, such as the bear of the earth. I can fight him again right away."

"Hahahaha, yes, this kind of spirit is what is needed, but the opponents for the competition are all determined by drawing lots. Even I cannot interfere. Otherwise, once this precedent is set, there will be no fairness at all."

Edward II said, "But don't worry, the more you win, the greater the chance of meeting each other. Let's have a good competition. As long as you can win the final championship, in addition to the prizes you already have, I will give you another one." A great gift."

Ilea's ears perked up when she heard the big gift, "What kind of gift is it? Is it money or land?"

"Of course we will have all of these. As for the big gift, let's keep it a secret for now." Edward II winked at the girl.

Miss Rabbit's curiosity was aroused, but seeing that His Majesty the Emperor deliberately kept the matter secret, she could not ask any more questions, so she could only scratch her head and leave first.

And as soon as she stepped off the competition ground, she was surrounded by people.

In addition to Ferdinand, Gray Mane, Orwell and others also came to watch the girl's contest.

Everyone was originally worried about the female lord, but they didn't expect that Ilea would win so easily and simply.

The girl said modestly, "It's all with the help of my Lord Saturday, well, as well as Prophet Merlin and Servant Watt. Without them, I wouldn't be able to defeat that guy named Jose."

"Saturday is really powerful!" Wilder once again expressed his heartfelt emotion, "He can both save and hurt people."

"Yes, there are many benefits to becoming its believer." Ilea understood this deeply. She even said excitedly, "If I really win the championship, I will ask Merlin... uh, just ask for the trial. Keep your hands on you at all times.”
