Chapter 427 Ilea's New Nickname

Before Li Yu could speak, the female lord sneered, "What are you dreaming about? Let's not talk about whether we have so much dragon's blood. You also said that this thing is very popular in the capital, right? Why pay you such a large sum of money for nothing?"

"Because you're going to need my friendship," Geoff said to himself.

Miss Rabbit was amused by him, "Did you drink too much wine and lost your mind? The extortion money came to my head. You should inquire carefully in the western region to find out who has taken advantage of me? If you can't, go ask Your cousin Leo.

"I don't care what your status is in Wangdu or how much backing you have behind you. This is the western region, and your little tricks won't work."

"You're right, but I can still help you in the capital."

"I'm not going to the capital," Miss Rabbit curled her lips, "The western region is pretty good."

"That's not necessarily the case. As the saying goes, the world is unpredictable." Geoff chuckled, "His Majesty plans to hold a martial arts tournament in the capital in three months. Everyone can sign up. People will be rewarded generously, and the champion will get land and a lot of money."

Fausto frowned upon hearing this, "If I remember correctly, the empire has not held a national martial arts tournament for almost 400 years."

"Yes, my great-grandfather Renshi Andrea felt that this kind of martial arts competition was too bloody, so he ordered it to be stopped, but now His Majesty feels that the noble men of the empire lack blood, so he decided to reopen the martial arts competition to select the real ones. warrior."

"But what does this have to do with me?" Although the female lord is quite tempted by land and money, she is self-aware.

Although the family now has some masters, such as her current guard captain Thomas, and Juan who was awarded the status of knight because of his outstanding performance in the dragon hunt, the older generation also has Miss Rabbit's own guardian knight Alfred, and Alfred. Fred's nemesis, the grumpy Pablo...

But these people are not so outstanding in the entire empire.

Moreover, martial arts competitions are very dangerous. Ilea's father, Blood-Eyed Russ, died in a duel with other people, and in real martial arts competitions, everyone uses real guys.

Although there are some rules to the end, but in real fights, unless the strength is very different, it is difficult to control the strength.

Therefore, there have been many accidents in every martial arts competition in the past. It is normal to lose arms and legs after the fight, and many people died directly in the martial arts arena.

This is also the reason why Renshi wants to suspend the tournament.

However, there are many nobles in the empire who are keen on this ancient game, especially in relatively peaceful times, it seems that this is the only place where men can show their bravery and pursue honor.

But the female lord obviously didn't have such a habit, and she didn't want to send her men to die.

However, she heard Geoff say later, "Of course it does matter, the first thing that comes to mind after His Majesty made up his mind to hold a tournament is you.

"He yelled at the imperial meeting, how could there be no Ilea of ​​the Targris family in the martial arts tournament (His Majesty the Emperor obviously misremembered Miss Rabbit's surname), go and find me the dragon slaying heroine! Let everyone see what a real warrior is! That's why I'm here now."

? ? ? !
"Your Majesty wants me to participate in the tournament?" The female lord was dumbfounded.

"Obviously, our emperor has some misunderstandings about you." Geoff said, "However, this cannot be entirely blamed on His Majesty, because in the past stories and legends, the dragon-slaying heroes should be the kind of big-bodied and round-robed heroes, and they are very capable at first glance." The look of beating.

"In addition, Love and Mead's new drama "Death of the Dragon" has also played a certain role in promoting it. I heard that Timothy, the troupe master, knows you, and the actress he hired to play you is very burly and tall. The average man is a head taller.

"Standing on the stage is like a hill, so everyone affectionately calls her Roshan. When you arrive in the capital, please don't be offended if someone calls you that on the road."

"That dead dwarf is definitely taking revenge on me! Force him to act in a new play before taking revenge on me!!!" The female lord was furious.

And that Roshan, although the name sounds quite domineering, but it is far from her.

It took a while for Ilea to calm down the urge to grab Timothy and stew radishes, and said to Geoff.

"Now that you have seen me, you should know that all the previous rumors about me are not true. Please go back and tell Your Majesty, and I will not go to his tournament."

"It's not that simple." Geoff shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is a person who loves face very much. He boasted about you in front of many people a few days ago, saying that you are a pillar of the empire and have undeserved courage. To recruit you to lead the imperial guards, even though he was drinking too much, it is enough to show how much His Majesty has taken a fancy to you."

"Not to mention that when he heard the news of your successful dragon slaying before, he was so excited that he even gave you his sword and beast claw. If you don't go, he won't be able to step down."

When Geoff said this, there was a hint of gloating on his face.

"........."

He intentionally paused for a while, so that the female lord could fully realize his situation, and then changed the topic again, "But this matter is not without a solution. My sister has a good relationship with Princess Erani, and we You can ask the princess to help you."

"How can you help me?"

"Let's just say that you are superb in martial arts. Participating in the martial arts competition is too unfair to other contestants. Why don't you become a judge. Of course, you need to pay a small price."

"You're extorting!" The female lord gritted her teeth.

Geoff did not deny it, "Compared to life, money is just a thing outside of the body, I don't need to tell you how dangerous the tournament is, and because of your majesty's praise of you and your special status, many players are eyeing you. "

"No one can accept the shame of being defeated by a woman, so they will definitely go all out against you."

"Then I will surrender directly."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if you disregard the honor of the Arias family, you can't embarrass His Majesty."

Miss Rabbit's expression was very ugly at this time.

At this time, Li Yu, who had been silent before, suddenly said, "I can give you three hundred pieces of dragon's blood, but you must ensure the safety of Ilea in the capital."

Geoff was overjoyed when he heard the words, "Okay, okay, as long as there are tides, I will definitely try my best to help you."

"It's not about trying your best. I'll give you the medicine only if you do your job as a judge well."
