Path of light

Chapter 69 70.Plan

In the eyes of his family, Wagner Claire has a delicate face. He usually likes to wear more neutral clothes and has a shy and weak personality. He often follows his sister Belle Claire. Many of his preferences are like those of a girl.

He is thin in stature and has slender, fair and flexible hands.

The family all felt that Claire was very talented in music and was very suitable for playing the piano.

So after Claire entered the Elf Academy, several courses she took were all related to music.

Anyone who has seen Claire will think that he is a delicate and shy elf...

In fact, few people know about Claire's stubbornness and madness. Perhaps even Claire herself didn't know it until she met Roy at the Elf Academy...

When facing the aggressive Steve, Claire had his first street fight. Although he was beaten badly by a group of young elf nobles, he and Roy beat Steve into a pig head.

Perhaps it was at that time that a seed... called 'madness' began to take root and sprout in Claire's body.

Suddenly, he seemed to have an extra personality.

Claire is usually the same soft and submissive person who always smiles when she sees people...

But once the fight comes up, he becomes extremely violent.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have faced Steve's provocation that day and accepted a fight in the arena as if he was crazy.

Roy knew that he was the kind of spirit who would fight to the end once he made a decision.

…

On the other side of the training ground, Steve and Adams were sparring.

Both of them have certain attainments in swordsmanship. During the battle practice, they did not stick to the two sets of elven martial arts taught by instructor Nora. Instead, they incorporated some of the swordsmanship skills they had learned in daily life. Therefore, the two of them fought in the training ground. Extremely gorgeous.

Even if he holds two wooden swords in his hands, when he swings them, they will still turn into a string of phantoms...

As a Silver Moon Elf, Steve has a very perfect figure.

His upper body has a very obvious inverted triangle shape, and his figure is well-proportioned. Every time he slides sideways or moves in a flash, his posture is elegant.

And Adams looks more muscular. The wooden sword in his hand is also a broad-edged sword, which looks very thick. Every time the wooden sword is struck out, it is full of momentum. The moves are very vigorous and full of pressure, and the look on his face He always has that kind of winner's smile, which makes people feel a little restless just by looking at him.

Although both of them are outstanding Silver Moon elves, they have completely different styles.

During sparring, it even feels dizzying.

It attracted countless students to watch.

…

As for Roy and Claire, there were only a few groups of students sparring quietly on the grass.

Everyone is far enough apart to ensure that they don't interfere with each other.

Claire held the long dagger in one hand and launched attacks around Roy. His body was flexible, and every time the long dagger in his hand stabbed out like a poisonous snake, Roy couldn't stop him even if he held a wooden shield.

Claire’s unedged long dagger didn’t even know how many times it had been placed on Roy’s body...

Roy was armed with a mallet and a shield. He was sweating profusely on the training ground and was as clumsy as a bull.

Probably because he was tired, Claire put the long dagger into the sheath on his waist and sat down on the grass. He always wore light leather armor every time he went to martial arts training class. He took out a towel from his waist and wiped his face. Sweat on.

Roy, wearing tight-fitting trousers and a shirt, casually placed the gavel and wooden shield on the grass, and sat down with Claire.

He didn't expect the wooden shield and mallet to be so heavy. After half a lesson, his arms felt as if they were filled with lead, and it was a bit difficult to lift them up.

"Roy, I think we should explore the tactics carefully. Steve actually found Adams and made it clear that he wants to use his strength to crush us. By then we might as well have the most familiar fighting method. Before we Before he falls, knock Steve down at all costs and give the victory to Adams."

Claire had a paranoid look in her eyes when she said these words.

Roy was a little speechless:

"Claire, maybe we can be a little bolder."

Claire shook her head and whispered:

"Roy, a duel in the arena is not a street fight. The two of them will use the most powerful means to defeat us. We only have one chance, which is at the beginning of the battle."

Roy held the gavel lying on the grass in his hand, waved it twice again, and asked Claire:

"Claire, if we fight one-on-one, what chance do you think we have of winning against Steve and Adams respectively?"

"Hardly..." Claire said without any hesitation.

Roy said helplessly: "Yes, this is reality!"

"Okay, then I will also talk about my battle plan. My idea is slightly better than your mutual death fighting method. Of course... this battle plan also pays more attention to coordination. Once the coordination is not good, it may be defeated. Gotta go faster.”

Roy spoke in a low voice.

Claire was looking forward to it: "Then let's talk..."

"You are good at using daggers and bows. Of course, combat longbows are prohibited in the arena, so just use the dagger you are best at."

"I have almost no weapons that I am good at, so I chose this hammer and shield. I don't deny that these two weapons focus on defense. In addition to these, I also plan to wear heavy armor."

Claire was even more confused when she heard Roy say that he still had to wear heavy armor.

At this time, I heard Roy continue to say: "When the duel begins, I will be the first to attract the attention of the two of them, and you will wait for the opportunity behind me. We will fight hard to get injured to make one of them lose their fighting ability, and then Then defeat the other one two on one, and finally win the duel."

Claire asked worriedly: "What if they leave you and chase me all the time? You're wearing such bulky clothes that you can't run at all."

"You can come closer to me. When the time comes, I will hit them with a hammer, and they will definitely suffer..." Roy said.

Claire still feels that Roy's plan is a bit unreliable: "But I think it's a little difficult for you to hold this wooden hammer and wooden shield. If you put on a set of heavy armor, you won't even be able to walk."

Roy patted his chest and said, "I have thought about this for a long time. Have you forgotten that I am a trainee priest? I can use the 'Blessing of Power' to strengthen myself, and of course I can also help you to strengthen it... "

Hearing what Roy said, Claire's eyes became bright.

He said with some excitement: "I can also buy two bottles of Lion King's Power Potion. In this case... I can also increase my strength!"

"Roy, I suddenly realized that this duel doesn't seem so bad."

After saying that, Claire stood up and pulled Roy up from the grass.

"Roy, I think we should practice for a while... Roy, do you have heavy armor? I can help you get it. What kind of armor do you want?"

Roy thought for a moment. He had seen several elven warrior statues in the corridor on the first floor of the main teaching building of the college.

Those statues not only have weapons, but also wear armor.

One of the elf warriors holding a war spear and wearing a suit of mail impressed him the most, so he said to Claire:

"It's best to have that kind of mail armor, as long as a windbreaker, and then a pair of mail armor boots, gloves or something like that."

Claire asked: "Are you sure you can still move even if you wear a full suit?"

In fact, Roy didn't know either. He could only say: "How will you know if you don't try..."

Claire thought Roy was right, so she said, "How about... you and I go pick out a suit of mail armor this afternoon?"

Roy waved his hand quickly and said, "Let's do it tomorrow morning. I have something to do at the temple in the afternoon!"

"Then you have to come earlier. We can't bring mail armor to class." Claire told Roy.

"Know……"

…

Every Wednesday at the Statue of Liberty Temple Assembly, a choir sings hymns in the main hall.

As one of the lead singers in the choir, Sabrina would arrive at the temple at noon.

Roy will also go to the temple to help after class.

The two of them ran to the gate of the college almost at the same time, took the same long carriage to Brown Street, and jogged all the way to the gate of the Statue of Liberty.

The believers gathered at the entrance of the temple entered the temple one after another, and Roy and Sabrina slipped into the courtyard from the side door.

Sabrina was about to rush to the main hall to replace the lead singer of another choir, while Roy put on the trainee priest's robe and ran to the side hall to help Priest Theodore.

What surprised Roy was that Priest Andyson was actually in the main hall this time, but his face seemed to be coated with a layer of white powder and his eye sockets were sunken. He covered himself in a black robe and just stood there the whole time. Next to High Priest Reed, he stood there praying silently.

Roy secretly glanced at Priest Anderson from the side, and there was a kind of despair in his eyes.

Sabrina stood out in the choir crowd wearing a long gauze dress, and she looked extremely outstanding. When Roy passed by the main hall, he couldn't help but take a second look.

In probably two consecutive gatherings, High Priest Reed was providing holy water from the holy pool, and while leading the believers in prayer, he would lower twelve rays of holy light in front of the statue in the main temple.

So at the end of this meeting, I felt that High Priest Reed was also feeling indescribably tired.

After the temple meeting, Roy still needed to be responsible for the final cleaning work with Jasper and Abbott.

While cleaning the temple, Jasper secretly said to Roy:

"Roy, since you didn't come yesterday, Abbot and I secretly packed up the ship. Not only did we seal the big hole in the bottom with wooden boards, but we also installed a ladder on the right side of the ship so that you can climb directly to the big ship. On deck.”

"However, everything on the ship has been moved very clean. Almost everything in the captain's cabin has been emptied, leaving only some furniture such as chairs, benches and cabinets that cannot be moved..."
