He reached out his hand and brushed it across the surface of his suit. The magic runes on the suit were like obedient pets, and they quickly changed as his hand brushed across the suit.
There was a gust of wind in the air.
The surrounding servants looked around curiously, but they did not know where the wind came from.
Many people raised their heads slightly, and the fitted gown suddenly flashed with a faint green light. Then, the entire gown changed — the hem became shorter, and the joints became slightly looser. It was obvious that it was to make it easier for the body to move around. But the next change made everyone dumbfounded!
A layer of gray gas slowly appeared on the parts that were close to the body. Then, as if it was condensing at an accelerated speed, the seemingly illusory gas gradually turned into pieces of something that looked like metal plate armor. Piece by piece, they were pieced together and completely protected the body!
In less than a minute, Many's body seemed to have changed into plate armor, and there was even a majestic helmet on his head!
No one had seen this type of armor before!
It was not as cumbersome as the heavy armor used by the cavalry of Saint-Rames, and it did not have too many useless parts. All the joints, including the fingers, could be moved freely. There were no obstacles like normal plate armor. The helmet did not have an exaggerated red tassel. Instead, there were a few bulging lines on it, making it look like a poisonous snake!
The color of the armor was silver-gray, but it reflected a deep and reserved luster, making it impossible for people to guess the material.
Many did not have their walking sticks, and they walked with a slight limp. The door in front of them led to the grand theater, and Many had not mounted their horses yet.
"Sir Baron, the horses are all here."
"It's alright. Just prepare the spears and shields." Many turned around and closed his eyes.
Not long after, the already packed theater let out a collective cry of surprise.
The servants in the theater looked out of the theater in confusion. But at this time, Many with spears and shields had already walked out of the door. He was greeted by the surprised gazes of nearly three thousand spectators outside the theater.
It was almost dusk, and the sunlight was not blinding. Many of the armors in the theater made everyone feel suffocated. No one thought that a suit of armor, which was purely used for killing on the battlefield, could be so handsome and eye-catching!
However, what was even more unacceptable was that the unicorn that had suddenly charged in from outside the arena … had caused countless people to cry out in alarm!
It was a high-level Magical Beast!
Oh, God of Light!
Unicorn Knight!
This was the legendary warrior!
Just as everyone was making wild guesses, many people stepped onto Athena's horse!
If many people raised their heads and looked around, they would definitely see countless nobles widening their eyes in shock, and even more were the eyes of the noble ladies and rich young ladies who wished they could turn into hearts!
It couldn't be helped. Knights had always been the epitome of "romance" in the Empire of Saint Reims. The marriages of the nobles in the Empire were mostly connected by interests. Most of the noble couples shared the same bed but dreamed different dreams. As a result, the noblewomen had an indescribable longing for the handsome, heroic, and romantic nobles. With such a situation, it was no wonder that they were infatuated.
However, no one would have thought that Athena was missing a leg!
After riding on Athena, Athena pulled on the visor of her helmet, which made her look even sharper. As soon as Athena, who was holding a four-meter-long lance in her right hand and a kite shaped shield in her left, sat down, Athena cooperated and performed a "leaping horse" posture. With a loud neigh that echoed throughout the theater, the strong spiritual pressure and the aura of a high-level Magical Beast instantly pushed the atmosphere to its peak!
This was the embodiment of the perfect knight in everyone's eyes!
Athena's unusually fair and handsome appearance, coupled with the extraordinary long horn, and Athena's gorgeous armor, instantly made the atmosphere in the theater stagnate!
"Ta, ta, ta …"
Athena strolled leisurely to the center of the theater. She didn't even need to use the reins to control anything. It was as if they had a telepathic connection. Of course, they really did have a telepathic connection.
The audience below the stage could no longer hold back their emotions. Many of them even stood up, not daring to miss a single moment!
This armor didn't feel heavy at all. Athena didn't feel the slightest burden while riding on the back of a horse. Even his breathing was a lot smoother than usual. This was because this armor was completely formed by the wind element. Its strength and toughness were several times stronger than ordinary steel armor!
The vision from the armor was very good. Athena lightly weighed the lance in his hand and closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, his entire aura changed as if he had suddenly become a different person!
If one were to say that Athena's aura was restrained and no one could tell that he was a knight who was about to enter the battlefield, then in the next moment, his body seemed to have become unusually sharp because of a powerful aura that suddenly spread out!
Dark energy was circulated to the extreme in an instant. This energy that was different from Combat Aura actually appeared under Athena's control as if he was releasing Combat Aura out of his body!
This was a skill that only assassins above the eighth grade could master!
Athena's strength had already broken through the eighth grade!
The dark energy gave Athena's armor an additional layer of faint purple light. When he arrived at his predetermined position and raised his lance towards the knight opposite him, no one, including Madam Vasaki, could tell that he was the former scout!
This was completely a knight who had been through the battlefield for a long time!
The opponent seemed to be slightly startled. He didn't expect such a situation to occur in front of him. However, his gloomy eyes swept towards an unknown direction in the stands. After signaling the same direction, he suddenly charged forward!
There was no need to doubt his strength. The moment the man and the horse charged forward, his body exploded with a bright light!
Eighth grade Grand Knight!
In order to prevent heavy casualties, the wooden lance did not use metal as the tip of the lance. When colliding, the lance would basically shatter into pieces due to the powerful impact, thus absorbing the unparalleled force. However, even so, the casualty rate in cavalry battles was still frighteningly high. In summary, in every four battles, there would be one seriously injured and in every ten battles, there would be one death. When two war horses collided, even if one used a shield to block, it was still not something that an ordinary person could withstand.
However, the moment the knight launched his charge, the wooden lance in his hand also emitted a white radiance!
This meant that the entire lance was filled with Combat Aura, and at this moment, it became indestructible!
It even surpassed steel!
In a normal battle between knights, such a situation would definitely not occur. In a battle between knights, it was a battle of courage and skill, not brute force and lethality!
In the blink of an eye, when this low-profile knight launched his fatal charge, Athena became the only bright spot in the arena. So much so that no one even paid attention to the person who was flickering with Combat Aura on the wall!
The moment Athena launched her charge, the huge hooves of the horse left four cracks on the ground!
Her pure white body emitted a faint fluorescent light, and at this moment, her charging speed was completely displayed in front of the world!
Like a shadow, Athena reached her maximum speed in a mere five meters. This speed was so fast that no one could catch her figure!
Normally, when two knights moved at the same time, they would probably meet in the center of the arena and decide the winner. However, the current situation was that before anyone could see Athena's movements clearly, the white unicorn had already crossed the entire battlefield and charged towards the knight who had just started his charge!
However, the knight did not show the slightest sign of panic. His gloomy eyes behind his helmet suddenly narrowed, and the lance in his right hand pierced forward with the momentum of a thousand catties!
A moment ago, there was nothing in the direction of his thrust, but in the next moment, Athena's figure appeared in front of the fatal spearhead as though it had crashed into it!
Because Athena's huge body was a third taller than the average warhorse, his thrust was aimed at Athena's abdomen!
It was not hard to imagine that if the lance that was infused with Combat Aura was stabbed, Athena would definitely not be able to escape the fate of having their abdomens pierced!
However, in the next moment, an incomprehensible scene appeared!
They saw the lance pierce through Athena's body, and in the next moment, Athena's lance hit the opponent's battle shield without any delay. However, the knight's entire body was sent flying by the force!
"Bang!"
It seemed like the sound only reached the ears of the audience by half a beat. They stared blankly with their eyes wide open, unable to understand what just happened!
