Chapter 256 Installed

"Lord Zoro is here!"

A guard shouted at the entrance of the square.

Almost all the people watching the battle on the high platform turned their heads and looked at Lu He who was walking out of the carriage. Most people had a hint of curiosity and fear in their eyes.

Even the two knight students who were fighting fiercely took a peek at him at the same time.

Helen was frightened by this peek, her eyes froze, her hands trembled, her heart trembled, and her heart almost stopped beating.

But her opponent reacted quickly, quickly knocked the long sword out of her hand with a sword, and put the sword on her neck.

"Second round, first game, Lyon wins!"

A bearded referee on the side announced loudly, but his eyes were always on Lu He.

Helen was furious.

This game should have been a sure win, but she lost because she was frightened by Lord Zoro who suddenly appeared.

She stared at Zoro hatefully, and the more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was the noble boy she met at the market a few days ago.

Especially when she saw Zoro winking at her, Helen was so angry that her teeth itched.

But she was extremely shocked in her anger.

After coming out of the Dawn Forest, she also heard about several Sky Knights fighting at the south gate of Rainbow City.

This incident caused a lot of ups and downs in the city. There were all kinds of versions in the market, and it was spread all over the city.

Some people said that Zoro and Lady Anis killed a Wolf King and Sky Knight Pato.

Others said that Zoro did it alone, first shooting the Wolf King with an arrow and then beheading the Sky Knight Pato with a sword.

Some people even said that Pato was ambushed by Zoro and the Wolf King, and after killing the Wolf King, he was exhausted and was killed by Zoro's sneak attack.

...

There are too many versions, and Helen can't tell the truth.

However, she cleared the fog of the versions and concluded that one thing in common was that Zoro killed the Sky Knight Pato.

Of course, no matter what the truth is, she is just eating melons and feels that it has nothing to do with her.

But now she found that there was a little connection. One of the protagonists of the version, Sky Knight Zoro, was actually someone she knew. She had also drawn her sword to help Zoro drive away the thief.

It was simply outrageous, Helen complained in her heart.

She was not the only one who thought it was outrageous. The pharmacist Fatty and the brothers in the audience stared at the figure with black hair and red eyes.

Their hearts were in turmoil. It had only been a few days since they set up a stall to sell and buy medicine, so their memory of this person was still relatively clear.

And the name Zoro was even more well-known. They had heard it so many times in the past few days.

Now that the two coincided, they couldn't believe their eyes.

"Is it him!?"

"Is it him!?"

"It's him!!!"

The three looked at each other, and the silent communication between their eyes suddenly made their hearts jump, and they had a definite answer.

Lu He looked at the platform.

Anis sat quietly on the stone chair, holding her white and delicate chin with her right hand, looking lazy and charming.

She was wearing a dark red slim dress today, highlighting her tall and beautiful figure. Her light blue shawl-like long hair was draped in a messy manner, and delicate light golden earrings were faintly revealed in her hair.

She turned her head to look at Lu He, then nodded slightly, and whispered a few words to an old man with silver hair next to her. The two of them stood up and walked down the platform to greet him.

"Earl Sauron is here." Anis showed a very polite smile and took the initiative to greet him.

Yue Ling behind Lu He curled her lips and complained about her former idol in her heart.

At this time, she started to pretend to be unfamiliar and reserved, and she was not the same as she shouted in the open-air swimming pool yesterday.

"Let me introduce you, this is Gustavo, the Grand Duke of the Alliance." Anis said with a smile.

Lu He retracted his gaze from Anis, but happened to see Grand Duke Gustavo smiling at him in a friendly manner.

This tall and thin old man had pale skin, covered with age spots, a high nose, a black cross scar on his forehead, and a slightly hideous smile.

Lu He also smiled in a friendly way.

He felt a hint of death from Gustavo, and he probably won't live for many years.

Who is the most terrible? The one who is about to die and has great power is the most terrible. Gustavo is such a person.

Since the other party has shown goodwill, Lu He will naturally not be cold to him, lest the old man go crazy and make trouble.

"I have heard of the reputation of Count Sauron for a long time. Today I see that he is indeed a handsome man and has great potential at a young age." Gustavo laughed and spoke slowly and clearly.

"Grand Duke Gustavo, it's our first meeting. Just call me Sauron." Lu He nodded in response.

"Haha, then I won't be polite." Gustavo pointed his right hand to the high platform, "Sauron, please."

"Today is the strength competition jointly organized by my Alliance Knight Academy. Let's see how strong these young people are. You can also be a judge and give them scores?"

Gustavo said as he walked.

"I heard that Earl Sauron has been trained as an orthodox knight since he was a child, so he can just instruct these little guys."

Annis said, she was still very polite, and her words and behavior always kept a certain distance from Lu He.

The three of them walked to the platform, and they all tacitly did not mention Pato, as if nothing had happened.

At this time, there was a bronze-skinned middle-aged man sitting on the platform who looked very heroic.

He was wearing an ancient silver knight's uniform, which looked like many small square pieces connected together, with a black hood and shoulder armor extending outward on both sides of his shoulders.

There are black stand-up collars on both sides of the neck, and two crossed blood-red knight swords are tattooed on the left stand-up collar. There is also a red cross sword printed on the back, as red as blood.

The man is leaning back on the chair, with his fingers crossed, and looking at Lu He with a graceful smile.

The energy intensity and physical fitness are okay, much higher than Pato, probably equivalent to three Anises.

Lu He gave this person an evaluation in his heart.

Among the creatures of the first level of the Sky Knight he met, only the Grand Duke Felix of the Blood Clan can compare.

So if he sneaks up and catches him off guard, it should be solved within five moves. If he goes head-on, it will take about ten moves.

"Zoron, let me introduce you." Gustavo smiled slightly and said solemnly.

"This is Knight Avic of the Blood Knights of the Sword of War. He was born in our White Phoenix City-State Alliance and has also participated in the trial of the Knight Academy. So I specially invited him to watch the game to inspire these young knights."

It seems that this is the insurance that Gustavo bought.

Lu He thought, and glanced at Gustavo with an inexplicable smile on his lips.

"Avic, this is the Sauron I told you about, who has been promoted to a Sky Knight at a young age." Gustavo's old face still had a smile, and there was no abnormality.

He had no choice but to do so, mainly because he was worried that Lu He would have bad thoughts about him, an old man, and how could he beat a young man like Sauron with his old arms and legs.

And Anis was no longer trustworthy in his heart.

Although she behaved very normally to Sauron at this time, and even had a bit of cold attitude, but who knows secretly.

Maybe the two of them really had an affair as rumored outside, and now they are just pretending.

But he had to ease the relationship with Sauron.

Gustavo was helpless. He was old and could not fight for the White Phoenix City-State Alliance for a few years. After he left, if Sauron retaliated, no one in the White Phoenix City-State Alliance could stop him.

So in the face of Anis's active invitation, he did not refuse.

As for Avic.

Although he was born in the White Phoenix City-State Alliance, he had little to do with the alliance after joining the Sword of War.

Because the Sword of War has its own code of conduct, and their original intention was to deal with alien races, they would not easily intervene in the struggles and grievances between human countries.

Lu He smiled and nodded to Avic.

Avic also nodded lightly, without saying much, and continued to watch the game after retracting his gaze.

He had no interest in Sauron.

If he had not received Gustavo's favor, he would not come to support the scene, and if there were no descendants of his family among the players, he would not come to watch the game.
