Chapter 687 Provocation

The Royal Knights were attacked by assassins, and the news spread very quickly. The guards of the entire city began to take action to hunt down criminals. Anthony, who was in the palace, also knew the news, but when he heard that Li Huailin was not in danger, Anthony breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really didn't expect the other party to dare to assassinate the city. This doesn't take me seriously." Anthony said.

"It's a bit strange, this assassination plan." Queen Marina said after reading the report, "The number of people is too small. Is it possible that such an assassination plan will succeed?"

Since the people below didn't know about the rebels' letter, they did not report Romerig's affairs, and neither Anthony nor Marina could infer what was going on.

"Dernat, send another team of Royal Knights over. No matter what happens, you must protect the safety of the Duke of Aquitaine. Do you understand?" Anthony thought for a while and said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Delnat replied.

Of course, it was not just King Anthony's side, but also received the news at the Athletic Conference. Of course, their focus was not whether the King's Guard was attacked, but the people who came.

His Highness the King was not in trouble anymore, which somewhat disappointed the knights who were preparing to show their skills. After all, they came to participate in the competition to make people like it. The best thing here is naturally to be favored by the king, which means to reach the sky in one step. If the king doesn't come, their hard work will be useless.

But soon another amazing news came. The person who came to replace His Highness the King was Li Huailin, the million-dollar Duke. In an instant, all the contestants were excited. For them, Li Huailin's attraction was even greater than that of the King.

The knights who were waiting to seek jobs naturally knew about Li Huailin's situation. Now the powerful Li Huailin in the empire has no real knight yet. That is to say, he would definitely find a few people to go back this time. Compared to the Royal Knight Guard, if he was attracted by Li Huailin, it would definitely be a more enjoyable step to reach the sky. Of course, the reason is not just this. The so-called knights naturally have to participate in the battle. After becoming a knight, their goal is to strive for military achievements. Li Huailin's current situation, the Imperial Marshal and the God of War, is so comfortable to fight under his hands. Compared to the Royal Knights, which is difficult to go to the battlefield, it is obvious that Li Huailin's side is a good choice.

After the news spread, some knights who had not planned to participate in the competitive competition also rushed over. Even if they didn't have this strength, it would be good to see the Duke of the Empire.

In a small bar called Black Hat in the slums of the God Blessed City, a 17 or 18-year-old boy carrying a long sword rushed into the bar while shouting: "Captain, a big incident, a big incident."

"What's the matter with Retan?" A female knight stood up on the bar and said to the young man named Retan.

"Jina, where is the leader?" Ruitan asked immediately.

"Then..." Jina pointed to an uncle in her thirties who was lying on the floor next to her and said, "I drank for a night and am now sleeping."

"Captain, Leader," Ruitan, who was here, immediately woke up the leader and said, "It's a big incident."

"What the hell is it?" the commander woke up slowly and said in great discomfort. "What's more important than sleeping."

"Captain, I just heard that the Million Duke is going to watch the Knights Athletic Conference instead of the King." Retan said immediately.

"What a million duke...wait, a million duke? Aquitaine?" the commander here woke up and asked.

"Yes, it's that million-dollar duke." Rhetan said.

"According to rumors, the Duke of Aquitaine does not seem to have his own knight yet. Was it because he went to the Knights Athletic Conference to choose the right knight?" Jina walked over and said.

"Yes, yes, I think yes, too, commander, have you been saying that this million-dollar duke is the master you imagine? Now that he is choosing a knight, should we go and have a look?" said Ritan here.

"Yes, it would be a pity not to go and see the style of our Million Duke. But I don't know if he is so confident, will he dare to accept us?" the commander said with a smile.

"I can finally fight. I haven't started for more than three months. That's great!" said Rigi here.

"Captain, are you really sure this million-dollar duke is the lord we are looking for?" Jina asked here.

"I don't know, but now, no one is better than him, so let's go and have a look first." After saying that, the commander stood up and tidied up his clothes a little. "That's true. I just used his sword as a drink yesterday. Today it seems that I can only beat him empty-handed."

"Why do I lend you my money, Captain?" Jina said with a smile.

"No, I don't care about your sword." The commander shook his hand, "Empty hand is enough."

Back to Li Huailin's side, the convoy had arrived at the gate of the arena. At this time, all the nobles who had heard about the arrival of the Duke of Aquitaine were waiting at the gate of the arena. Li Huailin did not dare to refuse to give Li Huailin's face, and they all lined up. In addition, many passers-by and the knights who were going to participate in the competition were also watching Li Huailin at the door, but the guards had already set up a protection line and were not allowed to get close.

"Duke!" Seeing Li Huailin get off the car, all the nobles quickly greeted Li Huailin.

"Oh? Hello everyone." Li Huailin waved casually, "Anthony accidentally caught a cold. Today I will come over to see if there is anyone who can beat you. Let's do it yourself."

"Yes, sir." Everyone answered quickly.

I looked up at the arena. Isn’t it the place where the players pked before? It seems that they were booked by NPC today. Under the guidance of the waiter, Li Huailin and his group advanced towards the prepared box. Of course, hundreds of people from the Royal Knights could not all come in, so they were able to go to the control position first. Only dozens of people were still guarding Li Huailin, including Romerig who was following behind.

When he walked to the hall, Romerig on this side suddenly stepped forward and said to Li Huailin, "Sir, I'm going to go to the contestant area, so I'll say goodbye first."

"Oh, that's it, so play well, I look forward to your performance." Li Huailin said.

"Please rest assured, sir." Romerig nodded gracefully, without excessive entanglement.

Just as I was about to leave, a shout suddenly came from behind: "Wait! Stop for me!"

Everyone was immediately attracted to it. Of course, Li Huailin also looked over and found that it was a soldier from his own guard who suddenly stopped a knight next to him who was extremely tall and dressed in heavy armor.

Li Huailin recognized that this guard should be one of the candidates who were skilled and prepared to nominate as his Knights, named Rickson. The man in heavy armor did not seem to be from the Royal Knights, but should be one of the contestants participating in the competition. The man was wrapped in heavy armor and could not see at all, but the opponent's height was very obvious, because he was at least more than 2 meters tall. He had to lower his head to see the opponent when he stood in front of Rickson. Moreover, his figure was strong, and he stood there like a wall.

"What's the matter?" Li Huailin asked lightly.

"Lord, this man, he just hit my scabbard with his scabbard." Rickson replied immediately, "This is an obvious act of provocation."

"Oh? Provocation?" Li Huailin turned to the man in heavy armor and looked at the name displayed on the other party's head. It was Redno, "Did Redno? He said you were provocation? What's your statement?"

"Dude, of course I dare not and cannot provoke you, but I admit that I am provoking this knight." Redno pointed at Rickson and said, not knowing that Rickson has not yet held the ban ceremony, he is just a knight candidate.

"Oh?" Li Huailin smiled, "Why should I provoke my people?"

"Because I think the knights around you are too weak and are not worthy of standing by a great person like you. I think a weak person like this should hurry up and give up his position..."

"What did you say!" Rickson interrupted Redno directly, "Are you going to challenge me?"

"Of course, isn't what I said obvious enough?" Redno said, spreading his hands.

"Stop, what's it like!" Reg from here stepped forward and said, "Rickson, you know what's going on now. Assassin just came to attack, and now you're for personal grudges..."

"Regg..." While teaching his subordinates a lesson, Li Huailin suddenly spoke to stop him, then turned to Redno, "Are you confident in your strength?"

"Yes, Lord Duke, I think I'm better than these people," said Redno.

"You!" All the knights present were in anger, including those of the Royal Knights.

"Okay, I'm here to see if there are anyone who can beat you. If you can, I'll welcome you very much." Li Huailin said.

"Hahahahaha..." Redno laughed. It seemed that his solution was really successful. "Don't worry, I will never let you down."

After saying that, Redno turned to Rickson, lowered his head and said, "Little one, come and try it. I will let you do it."

"Lord." Rixon turned to Li Huailin and said in a questioning tone.

"I also want to see what kind of strength the so-called candidate selected by Reg is. Rixson, fight hard." Li Huailin said.
