NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1230: Decision
"Ling Feng, you mean..." Daphne looked at Ling Feng, with a hint of doubt.
Ling Feng said without hesitation, "Open the envelope. If I'm not mistaken, this envelope should contain everything we want to know."
The Western man smirked, showing no trust in Ling Feng's claim.
But Daphne did not hesitate to take out the envelope, ready to open it.
"My Lady, you shouldn't listen to this guy's one-sided story!" The Western man was shocked at this and rushed to stop her, saying, "All his claims are pure speculation. What if you can't pass the test once you open the envelope?"
Stopped by the Western man, a trace of hesitation also appeared on Daphne's face.
Their main purpose in coming to the Atlantis Continent this time was to find the Divine Sword in the Burial Sword Valley! Only then could the Round Table Knights' predicament be resolved!
"If I were you, I wouldn't let others' opinions disturb me!" said the masked woman lightly, "Daphne, don't forget your current identity. You are the leader of the Round Table Knights and King Arthur's successor! You should have the king's decisiveness and courage within you!"
Stirred by the masked woman's words, Daphne shivered, and her previously hesitant eyes instantly became clear.
"Thank you, I understand now!" Daphne said solemnly, "It seems bringing you along was the right choice!"
The masked woman only smiled faintly and said nothing.
The Western man wanted to say something more but was interrupted by Daphne, "No more words, I have my own decision!"
With that, Daphne took out the envelope and tore it open without hesitation!
It wasn't that she blindly followed Ling Feng's words, but she too sensed something was wrong. This world was so real, and it was entirely possible the other party had made them forget the matter of the test!
Since they still remembered, it indicated that Ling Feng and the others had fallen into the other party's "game," and the rules of the game might very well be in this envelope.
After opening the envelope, the letter inside turned into a white light and vanished into the air, followed by a loud and familiar voice from the sky.
"Not bad, you've discovered the clue so quickly. Congratulations on passing the first test!" The voice continued, "As a king, you should have the mentality to question and break through everything! If you had followed the instructions and sent the letter to the designated place, you all would have been eliminated!"
Daphne secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If it weren't for Ling Feng's suggestion, they might have all been eliminated! Thinking of this, Daphne looked at Ling Feng with much softer eyes.
The Western man cast a look of hatred at Ling Feng.
The masked woman glanced at the Western man, then at Daphne, with a curious look in her eyes.
"I know you came here to gain my power! In that case, I will choose one among you who best meets my requirements to be my master!" The voice said indifferently, "Of course, someone has already failed my requirements before this!"
Someone is about to be eliminated? Daphne was secretly shocked. Could it be Ling Feng?
At this moment, a Sword Qi struck in front of the Western man, and the voice of the Xuanyuan Sword came, "It's you, you're out now!"
The Western man was stunned, then displeased, shouted, "I'm out? Why? Why am I out?"
As one of the Twelve Round Table Knights, he had always been arrogant, when had he ever faced such treatment? And why hadn't his most hated Ling Feng been eliminated?
"Why? Of course, because you're too weak!" Xuanyuan Sword said lightly, "You who cannot even face your fears want to be my master? Are you insulting me with your cowardice? Get out!"
At the order, the Western man's body trembled as if struck by a thunderbolt and fell straight to the ground.
Daphne was startled and quickly went over, but fortunately found he wasn't dead, just fainted, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"You're too optimistic!" Xuanyuan Sword continued, "You are the leader of the Round Table Knights, the heir to King Arthur, right? Actually, I already eliminated you earlier. As a king, the most important thing is to examine your own beliefs, but you compromised your most genuine thoughts to pass the test!"
"If I hadn't given you another chance seeing your decisive choice earlier, your end would be the same as that guy's!" Xuanyuan Sword said arrogantly.
Cold sweat dripped from Daphne's forehead.
"Alright, enough of the nonsense! Now that I've shown myself, it means the test officially begins!" Xuanyuan Sword said, "And I can clearly tell you, this round is called courage!"
"As a king, without fearless courage, it's impossible to achieve great deeds!" Xuanyuan Sword said lightly, "So, my test for you is this! In the forest ahead, there is a Seven-Star Leaf Fruit, but it's guarded by an extremely powerful Monster Beast. Your task is to get the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit, understand?"
Ling Feng and the other two nodded.
"Now that you understand, go on! Good luck to you, my future master!" Xuanyuan Sword laughed, and then the voice completely disappeared.
"Let's go, it seems our test has just begun!" Ling Feng said lightly, "I can guarantee, the Monster Beast guarding the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit is definitely extraordinary!"
Daphne clenched her fists, "I don't care what that Monster Beast is, I must get the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit!"
Ling Feng curiously asked, "Daphne, why do you want to obtain the Xuanyuan Sword? This Xuanyuan Sword is an Ancient Divine Artifact of Huaxia, it doesn't seem related to you guys, right?"
Daphne shook her head, "Ling Feng, I don't want to deceive you. The Xuanyuan Sword you mentioned is likely related to the Sword of the King in the hands of our first King Arthur! For certain reasons, I must obtain the Xuanyuan Sword, so... this time we must become rivals!"
Ling Feng laughed, "Become rivals? That's great, I fear no one's challenge!"
Looking at Ling Feng's confident demeanor, a lonely glint flashed in Daphne's eyes. Could it be that Ling Feng still hasn't let go of what happened back then? Why does he remain as indifferent to her as ever?
"Ling Feng, how I wish you would pat my head and call me a silly fool like before! How I want to say sorry to you! If possible, I hope I never become your enemy in this lifetime! But this time... for the Round Table Knights, I have no choice but to compete with you, I'm sorry!"
