Chapter 631: The Eve of the Battle
The purple inscription penetrated directly into the cracks in the cracked bricks on the ground.
Under the effect of these inscriptions, a large amount of tender green grass spread out on the surface of the dusty bricks, and the trees grew up in just a few seconds.
On the other side of the arena, black mud clods surged out, and withered trees that had already decayed also grew from the cracks in the ground.
The two colors of light green and pitch black are separated by a shallow river.
"This is…"
Queen Yekana stood on the top of the stands and stared blankly at the scene below, like a god's creation, wantonly controlling the growth and withering of creatures.
Even if she knew that everything in front of her was an illusion, it was the first time she had seen such a magnificent illusion.
"The battlefield of the Holy Spirit." Joshua pointed to the two sides of the field, "Ms. Yekana, you should be able to distinguish the two camps, the Holy Spirit and the Scourge, right?"
"I'm not interested in the game itself."
Empress Yekana's pupils reflected the moment when one tower after another rose from the verdant towers and withered forest.
"I just hope it's enough for the Iron Forger to beat those damn foxes on this battlefield."
"All right."
Qiao Xiu didn't think that the queen would become a middle-aged Internet addict either.
For her to ascend to the position of queen of the country of steel, a strong self-management ability is definitely indispensable. It is very simple to resist the temptation of a game.
"I must admit that this is an illusion that is enough to shock me." Queen Yecana did not hold back her praise at this moment, "Josh Arnorod, who is the creator of the illusion?"
The queen's favorite thing is probably to take all the outstanding talents in the world into her own hands, no matter what kind of talents they are.
Joshua had already sensed this from the first time she recruited Fuya. Perhaps only games like Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Total War would arouse the queen's interest.
When her eyes looked at the battlefield of the holy spirit rising from the arena, she had already glowed with astonishing light.
At that moment, Queen Yekana was ready to take this excellent illusion caster under her command.
Joshua didn't answer her question. The creator of the illusion, the man in purple, had already come to the side of the stands.
"Sage of Melores? I should have guessed that such a stunning illusion was created by you."
Queen Yekana recognized the identity of the purple-clothed man, and she saluted the sage as a mage.
Any good person deserves the respect of this queen, but she will never tolerate those who are worthless and self-deprecating.
"Sage Melores, do you want to return to live in your homeland?" Queen Yekana offered an olive branch to the sage of Nolan without hesitation.
The man in purple was a native of the Iron Country in the past, and this kind of thing has been unknown to many people over time.
"I still have my apprentices to teach, so I can only decline Your Highness Yekana's invitation."
The man in purple's answer made Queen Yekana look at Ciri who had been following Qiao Xiu.
"I'm looking forward to the game soon."
Queen Yekana stared at Ciri for a while and chose to leave here directly.
"I seem to be disgusted?"
Shirley felt that Queen Yekana's last look was very subtle.
"That queen simply hates the people of the Frost Land."
Joshua rubbed Shirley's forehead, and she shook her head as usual to get rid of Joshua's claws.
"Cough...the man in purple will trouble you for the match the day after tomorrow."
Qiao Xiu didn't mess around with Shirley any further, after all, the man in purple was still watching.
"This body is not as fragile as it used to be. An illusion of this level doesn't consume much mana." The purple-clothed man glanced back and forth between Shirley and Joshua before saying, "I... will not bother you."
………………
two days later.
Count Cruz was honored to be able to go to the venue of the Holy Spirit Open... Mellors College with Queen Yekana.
The entire Iron Country team didn't drive a magic car. Whether it was the entourage like Count Cruz or the contestants, they all rode their horses and walked slowly towards Mellors College.
This is an ancient tradition in the Kingdom of Steel. Whenever a sacred gladiatorial match is held or an important ceremony is held, all participants must ride horses to participate.
Count Cruz believes that the significance of this tradition is to show the people their own military power... Sitting in a magic car covered in steel, there is no way to see the armor worn by the knights.
At this time, the people on the streets of Nolan had already stood on both sides, and the civilians from the country of steel had already knelt down, looking at the group of knights at the front of the team with eyes of respect and awe.
Count Cruz was at the end of the line, and his eyes were fixed on the knights at the front of the line.
On the black and red knight armor, a long sword burned by flames was branded.
Iron Forgers, the strongest knight order in the Iron Kingdom.
On the battlefield, the enemy will run away in fear just by seeing the emblem of the Iron Forger, and it is also the knight order that all knights in the Iron Kingdom want to join.
To Count Cruz's pride...his son Etek is sitting on his steed in the armor of the Iron Forger.
"He is not entitled to wear that medal."
Wall, another son of Count Cruz, whispered beside him.
"Wal!" Count Cruz interrupted him directly with a stern voice, and Queen Yecana was at the forefront of the line.
The queen gave up the heavy court robes and put on a man's light armor today, and walked slowly at the front of the team on a horse.
A queen should be surrounded by knights, but she doesn't need to.
Count Cruz knew very well that the Bloody Queen was able to stand in this position, not relying on any conspiracy and tricks, but pure power and strength.
"Our opponent is the Silver Frost Fox, who has repelled our powerful enemy dozens of times at the border." Count Cruz lowered his voice and said, "No matter on any battlefield, as long as Her Royal Highness Yekana believes that your brother is capable Become a caster of iron, and no one in the country of steel can refute it."
"It's just playing with the holy spirit..." Wall still complained dissatisfied.
"Don't underestimate any enemy!"
While Earl Cruz was warning his heir in a low voice, the Iron Nation's team had already arrived at the magic arena of Mellors College.
And Earl Cruz also handed over the horses to his followers for safekeeping, and followed Queen Yekana's team into the magic arena.
The moment he stepped into the arena, he smelled a mixed killing intent.
Queen Yekana had already seen the person in charge of the Silver Frost Fox, and she did not hide her thoughts at this time.
Count Cruz also felt that many powerful auras were living in the arena.
Today, I don't know how many powerful spellcasters gathered in this magic arena, and the number has even completely surpassed Oxenburg.
At this moment, Count Cruz put away his contempt for the game, and worried about the situation of Etek.
If these powerful spellcasters are all here to compete...then the situation after this is not optimistic.
"Ms. Yekana! Your match is the first match, so now I will introduce you to your opponents."
Joshua Arnold.
Count Cruz would not mistake the young man with black hair and black eyes, the rumored terrifying Chaos Demon.
Opponent... Earl Cruz listened quietly to the conversation between Joshua and Queen Yecana. He became very nervous for a moment, and waited anxiously for Joshua to announce who the Iron Forger would face in the first round.
