Pulled up by Russell, Roland was still standing on the broken ice cap, silently distracted, completely unable to understand the competition just now.
He, a great knight who had been dubbed a genius since he was a child, actually lost to his useless younger brother who had just been promoted to a great knight for a year and to a fantasy beast knight for less than half a year. And he was defeated in a devastating way.
“Brother?” Russell waved his hand, a little confused as to whether he had beaten his eldest brother Roland silly.
After a while, Roland came back to his senses and swatted Russell’s waving hand away.
Glancing at the gentle Russell, it was difficult to put him in the same position as the one who had just exploded with a thunderous strike.
“I…it’s okay.” Roland forced a smile with difficulty.
“It’s fine.” When Russell saw this, he was afraid that he had really damaged Roland, so he quickly made up for it and said, “My swordsmanship talent is even inferior to my grandfather’s. Brother, you are looking down on me. I have just been promoted to fantasy.” Beast Knight, you have to compete with me.”
“Does Grandpa also admire your swordsmanship?” Roland was horrified.
“Of course, I competed with my grandpa in simple swordsmanship, and I won one move.” Russell smiled slightly, quite proudly.
Earl Merlin was the number one man in the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy, with powerful combat power and excellent swordsmanship, but he still lost to Russell, who had the blessing of the Sword Butterfly and Amber Worm. It can be seen that Russell is the number one master of swordsmanship in the Shadow Flame Kingdom.
Knights do not necessarily need to rely on swordsmanship to unleash powerful combat power. Magic and fighting spirit martial arts can also exert powerful power.
But swordsmanship is the most basic component of combat effectiveness.
sword! It is not simply a weapon, but a technique, a powerful technique that uses weapons to exert fighting spirit.
“You can even beat grandpa… No wonder I lose.” Roland’s words were full of bitterness, but somehow he felt better about losing. “But I won’t keep losing, Russell, wait until I’m strong.” The foundation of the Phantom Beast Knight, you and I will fight again!”
“Okay.” Russell smiled lightly, “But brother, you have to tighten it quickly, otherwise I won’t be able to wait, you know.”
Roland understood instantly, and then said with a long face: “Uh…”
If he waits a few more months, Russell is afraid that he will become a flying dragon knight, and he will just give up by then.
After being covered by Dragon Breath, the knight’s combat effectiveness will soar to another level. Even the fifth-turn Yuan Breath of the fifth-turn advanced fantasy beast knight cannot compete with the dragon’s breath in terms of quality and quantity – the flying dragon knight crushes the fantasy beast knight.
“Come back, it’s quite cold on the snowfield.” Russell turned around and walked towards the cold spring point.
Roland took a step slower, looking at Russell’s tall and tall back, and suddenly thought of what Russell had asked before.
I’m standing in front of you, how do you think I look like before?
“In the past…” Roland recalled bitterly as he followed Russell. “In the past, Russell was just a younger brother. Now, Russell… is more like an elder brother than me… Fortunately, I was born six years earlier, otherwise it would be hard to tell.”
He was a little sad.
Of course, nobles pay attention to orderly inheritance from elder to younger, but if the second son has outstanding talents and can be recognized by the family’s flying dragon, he is also qualified to challenge the right of inheritance.
When Russell walked back to the Great Wall of Ice and Snow, Katie immediately greeted him.
Before going up to him, he did not forget to mock the great knight brought by Roland: “Now you know, my lord is invincible at the same level, but he won it one battle after another!”
She saw these with her own eyes.
In the territory, Russell could already fight one against two, suppressing Eric and Grove. His strength was unprecedented.
The great knight opened his mouth, but in the end nothing came out.
“My lord!” Katie bowed.
Russell said calmly: “Okay, let me have a discussion with my eldest brother. The outcome is insignificant. Let us just watch a tutorial on how to fight among the knights of fantasy beasts.”
The implication is, don’t spread it outside.
This is to save face for elder brother Roland.
“Yes, sir.”
“Yes, Master Russell.”
Glancing at Russell who walked into the cold spring point calmly, he felt an indescribable and complicated feeling in his heart.
Fortunately, this was just a small episode on the road. After a sleep, no one would care the next day, at least on the surface.
Two days later, a group of four people descended from the Populus euphratica trade road and entered the northernmost warm enclave of the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy, the Populus euphratica desert. This warm enclave is a very rare Gobi desert, with oases only on the periphery of the territory.
Because the ice and snow melt outside the territory and the water resources are abundant, an oasis can be formed.
There is a shortage of water in the center of the territory. Even if the Bajiagan family has built many canals, it is still difficult to solve the problem of being unable to grow crops in the Gobi.
Populus euphratica Fort is not far from Populus euphratica commercial road.
Putting on the clothes prepared by Mrs. Meryl, Roland’s image took on a completely new look, and his mediocre facial features were somewhat more vivid due to the new clothes.
“Russell, are you going to wear this outfit instead of a new one?” Roland put on new clothes himself and became concerned about Russell again.
Russell’s dress was a cavalier jacket, a modified version of the tuxedo.
He looks very energetic after wearing it, but there is certainly no traditional tuxedo that can bring out his aristocratic temperament better.
Moreover, the road was full of dust, and Russell’s knight’s shirt was also stained with some dust, making it look dimmer.
“Brother, are you sure you want me to change clothes?” Russell smiled, “I don’t want to steal your limelight.”
“Look what you said, why would I mind if you steal my limelight… But if you don’t want to change, I won’t force you. Let’s go. I’ve been working hard all the way. I hope I can have a good night’s sleep in Huyangbao. “
A group of four riders entered Huyang Fort and were quickly greeted by a queue from Huyang Fort.
Baron Gervidus Lotus and his wife Joanna stood in front of the gate. Their eldest son, Grongo Lotus, their daughter-in-law, Queenila Sunflower, their daughter Gwen Lotton, and their second son, Grontan Lotton. Veins root, standing on the left.
There is also a group of male and female servants standing on the right side.
“Welcome, Roland and Russell.” Baron Gervidas welcomed the two brothers with a smile.
Mrs. Joanna also smiled and said: “The countryside is remote and not as rich as the Youguang River Valley. Don’t dislike it.”
“How could it be so? The Populus euphratica desert is as rich in products as the Youguang River Valley. It is also a livable and warm enclave.” Roland responded in a very gentlemanly manner. In terms of aristocratic behavior, he was more calm than Russell.
Russell had no intention of showing off, so he just followed Roland and said hello briefly.
Then Roland and Gelongo hugged each other hard: “Long time no see, Gelongo, how have you been in the past year or so?”
Both he and Grongo had served in the Dragon Blood Knights. As the heirs of great nobles, they naturally had a good relationship.
Gelongo patted Roland on the back and said with a smile, “Everything is fine.”
Then Roland finally walked up to Gwen and said hello to Gwen with a hint of nervousness: “Hello, beautiful Miss Gwen.”
“Hello, Roland.” Gwen responded with a generous smile.
Russell took a careful look at Gwen. This lady who was about to become her future sister-in-law was not very beautiful, but she was more gentle.
With her golden hair and big eyes, she looks very lively and lively, and her skin is quite fair, but her teeth are not perfect. She seems to be aware of this flaw, so she has trouble opening her mouth when speaking and tends to lose her voice.
But this good looks are more than enough for Roland.
“Hello, Miss Gwen.” Russell stepped forward to say hello.
Although he was dressed a bit inappropriately, his outstanding appearance and excellent temperament completely concealed this. No one would think that he was rude in any way. Instead, they would sigh in their hearts – he is so handsome.
