Chapter 63 Sea Hunting Exam

Relying on the "weak hegemony" under the hegemony armor state, he successfully resisted the knockdown, dizziness and other states that war trampling would bring to people.

But Qinedu was extremely fast and arrived in front of Rune in the blink of an eye.

A slanting sword light with a sharp murderous aura rushed towards him, forcing him to raise his destiny to block it.

The holy light collided with destiny, making a metallic buzzing sound that made people ache, and then the sword light came like a gust of wind. Rune could only parry and could not find any room to fight back.

If it were not still within the duration of the hegemony armor, I am afraid he would have been pressed into a corner by this dense sword light, and then he would have nowhere to retreat until he died slowly.

Although he could still barely resist, Rune could feel that his spirituality had dropped by more than half, and at the same time, the 15-second duration of the hegemony armor was about to end.

This can't go on, something must be done!

Looking at the sword that was lifted from below and broke through the ground, Rune dodged and retreated quickly.

At the same time, several gray alchemical props fell between the venues.

Seeing this, Qinedu temporarily stopped moving forward, fearing that this was another strange explosive.

But then, from these props, a few clouds of smoke suddenly rose up, covering his front!

This was the first time that Rune used the smoke bomb prop in actual combat.

In previous battles, there was no battle that could force him to create an environment before fighting.

Or some battles could not be reversed even if smoke bombs were used, so this ability had not been used for a long time.

But today, smoke bombs will play a key role!

The third-level effect of smoke bombs: enemies in the smoke will fall into "suffocation" and their vision will be obscured.

However, Rune can see the outline of the enemy in the smoke.

It is equivalent to making the enemy lose their visual ability!

In addition, fate is a long-range attack, which is even more puzzling.

"Bang!"

A spiritual bullet shot out from the smoke and hit Qinedu directly.

The holy light on Qinedu became a little thinner, but he immediately swung the Holy Sword of Light towards the place where the gunshot was heard.

The sharp edge of the holy light broke the smoke bomb for a brief moment, but Rune had already changed his position.

Fate fired again!

Chinedu was hit again!

Being inside the smoke bomb, unable to see the opponent's vision and having to hold his breath to fight, made Chinedu upset.

In addition, being hit by the hateful alchemical weapon repeatedly, it added fuel to the fire.

He was furious, narrowed his eyes instantly, and held the sword upright in front of his chest with both hands.

The golden holy light became stronger and stronger, gradually pushing away the surrounding gray fog from the center of the smoke bomb.

The onlookers saw Rune and Chinedu fighting for several rounds, and they had some understanding of Rune's methods.

It was rare for someone who could fight a Sequence 7 veteran strongman in the intermediate stage of Sequence 8 to such a situation.

In the brief moment inside the smoke bomb, Rune even took advantage.

As for now, the golden holy light, those who are familiar with the Knight Cult can easily recognize that it is the signature skill "Sword of Judgment" that all knights will learn in the middle stage.

Like "Knight", "Warrior", "Assassin" and other common sequences, the moves and abilities are mostly similar.

The only difference is how they are used and the characteristics they carry.

For example, Qinedu's characteristic is that he has an extra "golden holy light" compared to ordinary paladins, which can be used on various knight abilities to gain additional amplification.

Especially the extremely offensive ability of the Sword of Judgment.

I don't know how many enemies were killed by this sword back then.

Rune looked at the Sword of Judgment and felt a strong sense of oppression in his heart.

The opponent really wanted to kill this time, showing the victory posture of Sequence 7!

"Enough."

At this moment, a figure quietly fell from the Elders.

A gust of wind blew.

The next second, the smoke from the smoke bomb dissipated.

The man's hand gently pressed Qinedu's sword-holding hand, and the spiritual turbulence wrapped around it, and the Sword of Judgment that had just condensed was instantly shattered.

Looking at the face of the person who came, Rune and Qinedu were stunned.

Major General Ores!

In fact, before the fight started, Rune had already thought that this fight would not go to the end.

After all, this was a game between the Elders and Nils, and it was still at the Lion Ceremony, watched by everyone in Beloberg.

It would not really be a life-and-death battle.

But he never expected that the person who came forward to stop the fight would be Ores.

Ores now should be the one who wants him to die the most. No one else.

"This farce, let's end it here." Ores stared at Chinedu in front of him, his voice calm and majestic, "As a Sequence 7 extraordinary person and a member of the Elders, he actually wanted to kill the captain of the navy. Chinedu."

He didn't finish his words, but the threat in it was self-evident.

"Chinedu is willing to accept the punishment."

Chinedu also came back to his senses at this time, without arguing, bowed his head, performed a knight's salute, and retreated.

When Chinedu's figure returned to the stage, Ores turned to look at Rune, his eyes indifferent.

After just a glance, Ores ignored Rune, walked to the front of the stage, and said to everyone:

"Liad upholds the spirit of chivalry, which is worthy of praise, and his strength is beyond doubt."

"But what Kasruto said is not without reason. The battlefield situation is ever-changing, and knights must also be flexible."

"Both have their advantages, so let's not talk about who is better for now."

"So, after consultation between General Nils and the Elders, the results of this Lion Ceremony will be voided!"

"Three days later, the 'Sea Hunting Exam' will be launched to test the true strength of all the young lions!"

"This exam will last for fifteen days. Except for those with Sequence 7 or above, there is no limit on the means."

After this sentence was said, the audience exploded instantly!

Sea hunting is a traditional ritual of the Seven Seas.

Rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, rely on the sea to eat the sea.

Anyone who can hunt valuable or powerful prey in the ocean represents that this person is the darling of the sea.

From the inheritance of the lord to the division of the fisherman, sea hunting competitions are happening all the time.

After the Lion Ceremony, after Liad and Kasruto made such a fuss, the Elders could not accept the result of Liad's failure, and Nils also felt that such a victory was not convincing, so he made changes directly!

To be honest, Niels probably didn't expect that Kasruto would come up with such a move.

The reason why the audience was so shocked was that after the sea hunt, there was still the word "big test".

At the same time, the rules also said that except for the combat power of sequence 7 and above, no means were limited!

This also means that the young lions who had lost in the lion ceremony competition before also got the opportunity to compete again.

And this time it was no longer a one-on-one fight with a big sword, but a real competition of all skills!

The word "skill" contains too many things.

Personal strength, connections, wealth, wisdom, and even...luck!

Only those with the strongest comprehensive strength can win the sea hunt exam.

Every "young lion" has more or less people supporting him.

These families and celebrities have begun to plan how to win for the young lions they support.

Even some people who just started watching the show began to consider whether to mobilize resources to support a young lion and thus establish a relationship with the Vasek family.

Almost all the people present represented the complex forces of the entire Beloberg.

Except for the lack of the opinion representative of Major General "Lugard", almost all of them were present.

So the Vasek family, a small change in the ceremony, made these family celebrities more closely connected with themselves.

This is the wisdom of the family. Even the conflicts between different factions can be used to benefit the family.

Among the many young lions, Liad and Kasruto are naturally the two most concerned.

As Kasruto's "guide", Rune has also received great attention!

The limelight is even faintly on par with Kasruto.

After all, Rune's performance in the battle with Chinedu tonight was too eye-catching.

He was able to force Chinedu to launch a killing move, and sometimes had a slight advantage in the middle stage.

He is just a Sequence 8 Beyonder!

I heard that he was born a commoner and completed self-awakening.

It is already amazing!

Many people are secretly planning to contact and win over Rune.

Although the final winner of the young lion was not decided in today's lion ceremony, everyone was very satisfied.

Whether it was Nils, the elders, or the young lion supporters or participants.

Everyone had their own gains.

Of course, this also included Rune.

"Captain, my uncle asked me to take you there."

After the ceremony, Kasruto winked at Rune.

Rune looked at the boy, smiled helplessly, and then punched him on the head, "I taught you to be good at observation in battle. When did I teach you to point the barrel of a gun at someone during the lion ceremony?"

Casruituo looked innocent, and said angrily while leading the way in front: "Captain, I am doing this for your own good!"

"If I didn't have something, your old knight would have been killed by me." Rune followed behind him, "Have you ever thought about what if I can't hold on?"

Hearing this, Castruituo slowed down and said: "No, Captain, you won't have anything at the lion ceremony! You help me fight, which means you represent my uncle's faction. They won't sit idly by."

He said as if to ask for credit: "Besides, I know your strength, and I called you on purpose. As long as you perform well, I can help you connect with my uncle like now. Opportunities are really not easy, you must seize them well, and today will be your day to rise to prominence!"

After circling a few more times and entering a small courtyard, Castruituo knocked gently on the door of a simple room.

"Come in." Niels' voice sounded.

Casruituo opened the door first, and Rune followed in.

The furnishings in the room were also very simple. A set of armor and a greatsword were hung on the wall, and the emblems of the family and territory were next to them.

On both sides, there were bookshelves and orchids.

Niels sat behind the table, and a spread-out sea chart was placed on the table.

He first looked at Casruituo, and laughed and scolded like an elder: "You guy, you can cause trouble for me! Those people in the elders' group have all started to protest, and I have a headache!"

"Protest is good!" Casruituo raised his head and chest, "I have been unhappy with those old antiques for a long time!"

"Stinky boy!" Niels sighed, "But what you did is actually a blessing in disguise. The elders' group has been reaching out too long recently, and it can be regarded as a warning to them."

"It's all the captain's teaching!" Casruituo replied immediately, but after thinking about it, he said, "Uncle taught well too!"

There was a hint of joy on Niels's face, but then he frowned, "Gungun, go prepare for the sea hunting exam, don't be embarrassed when the time comes."

"Yes!" Casrito walked away in two or three steps and winked at Rune before leaving.

After Castretto left completely, Nils looked at Rune curiously, not imagining the majestic aura of the general.

"Captain Luen, we finally meet." Nils smiled, "I have seen everything you have done in the past month, which is very good."

He thought for a while and added: "Major General Ores, I also think you are very good."

With two words, Lu En almost became confused.

It’s understandable that Nils thinks he’s good, but as for Ores.

He had killed his son with his own hands, and just now on the stage, he had seen the indifferent look in his eyes.

And then tell yourself that Ores thinks he is very good?

He took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, General, for your appreciation."

Nils waved his hand and said: "You have to thank Casrito. It can be seen that this boy really admires you and speaks good things about you in my ears every day. I have never seen him recommend someone like this." Man. Including everything today, he had good intentions in order to let me see you."

Luen was silent.

It's not easy for him to talk about this kind of thing.

After all, what happened today is considered the "internal affairs" of the Vasek family.

If I say something, won't it instigate internal conflicts within their family?

Seeing that Luen didn't respond, Niels seemed to have guessed his thoughts and said, "Don't be so nervous. Even if you had some relationship with Lugard before, I wouldn't think of you as some undercover spy who wanted to split the family." To put it bluntly, you don’t have the qualifications and abilities, and neither does Castretto.”

"Besides, I investigated you in detail again. Before you came, I also knew why you came here."

"You need my protection."

"So whether it's a pirate, an officer, a pawn in Lugard's plan, or the person whose brain is focused on investment, these identities don't matter now."

He tapped the table with his index finger, "I think highly of you, Ores thinks highly of you and highly recommends you, not to mention Castretto."

"One person's vision may be wrong, but three people will definitely not. You have a bright future. And when you come here, I will naturally give you a chance, which can be regarded as a test."

"Please speak." After hearing what Nils said, Lu En was slightly surprised, but then he calmed down.

The person in front of me is the most powerful person in Beloberg today, the patriarch of the Wasek family.

No matter how much you conceal your identity and experience, you can't escape the detection of the other party's intelligence network.

But at this point, as the other party said, nothing matters.

"In this sea hunting exam, you have to help Casrito get first place."

"Although you are very strong in Sequence 8, this job is definitely not easy."

"Your opponents will be elites secretly cultivated by various families, or even people from other principalities."

"They will unite, use external forces, and use whatever means necessary."

"The test is not easy. If you can succeed, I will give you a chance to study in the Knight Tower."
