Claude interrupted suddenly, and slowly looked at Arnold from the window.
This dark heavy swordsman has been silent from the very beginning, with a thin sense of existence, as if he has no interest in anything.
This sudden question made people a little surprised.
"Please... Excuse me, Mr. Claude..." Arnold said nervously, feeling that Claude had a weird temper, so his tone became very respectful.
"I often hear people talking about Elgin's legendary great swordsman in the market. It seems that everyone is talking about it. You two were talking about it just now..." Claude paused, under the heavy helmet see the face
"So I want to ask..."
"Who is Elgin's legendary swordsman?"
Chapter 25: Monthly Ticket Addition
"Eh!?" Arnold suddenly became surprised and asked, "Mr. Claude didn't know about Elgin's swordsman incident half a year ago?"
"I don't know at all..." Claude responded lightly.
Alice was a little surprised that there are still people who don't know Elgin's great swordsman?After all, countless people witnessed the legend of killing two holy pirate kings in one blow that night, and the whole of Great Britain was full of uproar. How could some people not know it at all?
"Could it be...Mr. Claude has been practicing in the mountains before, and has never come out?" Arnold speculated.
"Probably." Claude nodded and continued, "I always hear people talking about this swordsman. Many people say that he is the number one powerhouse in Great Britain, which makes me a little curious..."
Alice's doubts dissipated, thinking that she has been practicing in seclusion?No wonder I'm so closed, I don't even know my husband~
It seems that Alice's nympho problem is not serious, and she directly imagines Elgin's great swordsman as her husband. What's the difference between this and those fans who chase after Bangzi Guo's long-legged Oppa in the real world...?
"That's right, Elgin's legendary swordsman is now recognized as the strongest in Great Britain." Arnold nodded.
"Why is it named the strongest?" Claude was very puzzled.
"Elgin's great swordsman became famous in the first battle, and the red beard brother is a well-known holy rank pirate king. He is invincible in the North Sea. These two guys make the royal family helpless. Jin Jianhao killed in one blow!?" Arnold narrowed his eyes, and said mysteriously, "Think about how strong this Elgin Jianhao is? At least the strength can completely crush the two pirate kings. This is in strength, in the whole world. Great Britain is extremely rare."
Claude was silent, and said lightly, "Insta-killing two holy ranks? It's okay, right?"
"Eh!?"
Both Alice and Arnold were surprised, and it was the first time they heard disdainful voices.
"The holy rank is only the threshold for the strong and the rookie. Even if the same holy rank is divided into strengths and weaknesses, parallel imports still exist." Claude said plainly, it seems that killing two holy ranks is not shocking. thing.
For her delusional husband to be questioned, Alice must not be very happy, so she retorted, "The red bearded pirate brothers are not parallel importers, they are very powerful guys, and I have fought against them."
"Huh? Miss Alice beat the red-bearded pirate?" Arnold was very surprised, because the leapfrog challenge was tantamount to courting death.
"Of course, but I lost soon..." Alice said embarrassingly.
"Hmph, Miss Alice is a high-ranking lady. Of course, she will feel that the opponent is very strong when facing the holy ranks, because it is not a match of the same level. In the eyes of our holy ranks, the Pirate King you are facing is nothing. The gap." Claude's tone was very contemptuous, and he felt that Alice was exaggerating.
Alice was a little unhappy, but she still said patiently, "According to Lord Claude, it means that the Holy Pirate King, who caused headaches for the royal family, is actually a parallel importer?"
"That's right, I can actually kill two parallel saints in seconds. It's not something to be praised. To be crowned the strongest? It's ridiculous..." Claude's gloomy helmet , There were bursts of cold laughter.
Alice felt uncomfortable when she heard that the male god in her dream was insulted, she must be very disgusted as a fan girl, but she can't criticize anything due to freedom of speech, so she can only sit where she is and get angry.
"Now this era is no longer good. It has been made a mess by the British royal family. There are fewer and fewer real strong people. In the past, the existence of the Elgin swordsman was just a middle-of-the-road." Claude sighed.
Alice frowned, wondering what was going on with this old grandfather's tone?He said that he was like a person who lived in a previous era.
As a son of aristocrats, Arnold felt that such reactionary remarks were not very good, so he changed the subject, "Well... Actually, what Your Excellency Claude said is not unreasonable. The hype has made Great Britain the strongest. As far as I know, the president of the London Adventurers Guild, the youngest genius magician in Ireland, and members of the royal family’s secret Bauhinia Knights, etc., seem to be no weaker than Elgin Jianhao , but did not show strength..."
"Huh~!" Alice snorted coldly, she didn't want to talk to Arnold anymore, she actually joined forces with Claude and questioned her idol together, as a fan girl, it was unbearable.
"Every era needs a hero to become the pillar of human hope. It is the incompetence of the British royal family to let the people pin their hopes on a guy who doesn't even know his identity." Claude said sullenly.
A drop of cold sweat dripped down on Arnold's forehead, thinking how could Claude look like an angry youth?It's embarrassing, "But... Maybe it's like this. Now many people do regard Elgin's legendary swordsman as the patron saint. Even Elgin has a statue to enshrine. I heard that many people have been there recently. Pilgrimage, there is already a trend of mythology..."
"Ah? Really?" Alice felt baffled, such a good male god, he was about to be in the fairy class.
"Really, it was the Holy See who said it was prophesied in their scriptures. Elgin Swordsman is the chief knight of the Goddess of Light, and the lower world saves the world full of sins." Bragging is really slippery.
If Merlin knew about this, he might be speechless because he somehow betrayed the Demon King's Palace, right?
"It's really messed up..." Alice said depressedly, she didn't want the male god to become an illusory product.
"If possible, I really want to compete with this swordsman to see if he has the ability to become a hero in the hearts of the people, and whether he is worthy of being named the strongest." Claude seems to be a militant, touching He touched the black giant sword next to him.
"That...Mr. Claude, can you beat Elgin's great swordsman?" Arnold didn't quite believe it.
"If I can meet him, I am confident that I can kill him with one blow." Arnold said casually, without any pressure in his heart, very arrogant.
"Uh..." Arnold had nothing to say, he still believed that the great swordsman Elgin was stronger, after all, seeing is believing.
Alice couldn't bear it anymore. She felt that Claude was very proud, and thought that this trash, that weak, such an arrogant person, could anyone else fall into his eyes?
"Mr. Claude, since Elgin's great swordsman is not considered the strongest, nor worthy of being called a hero, then tell me, who is worthy of being called the strongest in Great Britain?"
"Of course someone can be called the strongest..." Claude paused, and asked very seriously
"Have you ever heard of the names of the former heroes of the Four Kingdoms?"
Chapter 26: Monthly Ticket Addition
"Four...four heroes?" Arnold was full of question marks.
"That's right." Claude nodded, and began to seriously introduce the guy who deserves the name of the strongest in his eyes
"Carona, the dragon-riding thief, once assassinated seven holy masters of the empire in one night, and escaped unscathed. As far as I know, no one who was targeted by her could survive her dagger, I said She is the strongest thief in history, and the historians of Great Britain will have no objection."
"The two twin sword masters, Zoe and Joey, are the most powerful spears in the empire. They can even be used together to increase their power to an unimaginable level. There is one thing that has been recorded in history. You should know that. It is the Giant King known as Absolute Defense, and his death was done by the two brothers."
"The last is Bernard the Storm Warrior, a humanoid battlefield meat grinder, who has singled out a holy dragon and participated in countless battles. He is the strongest warrior in the former kingdom and the leader of the four heroes. I am sorry to say that he cannot win without him. opponent."
"The above four people are worthy of the title of the strongest, and the others are just clowns."
Arnold listened for a long time, but he didn't understand the reason at all, because he didn't know anyone, "That Mr. Claude, who are you talking about?"
"You really don't have any knowledge at all. These are the four heroes who established the former kingdom, and they were called the Four Great Heroes." Alice explained to Arnold. In fact, Claude just said that she I didn't understand it either, but the names of those four people still have a little impression.
"The former kingdom? Isn't that people from more than 400 years ago? Now it's the British Dynasty." Arnold didn't know what Claude was going to say?
"Yes, Mr. Claude, I admit that the four heroes you mentioned are all very impressive, but these people are all dead. I think it is meaningless to compare the past with the present." Alice said with a frown .
Claude did not continue to speak, but remained silent.
But at this moment, the carriage stopped and the door was opened. The old butler in a tuxedo said respectfully, "Master Arnold, we have been walking for a long time, and the horses need to rest."
"Understood." Arnold nodded and turned to the other two, "Let's get out of the car and move around first, and get some fresh air."
"Hmph~!" Alice held her breath and got out of the car directly.
◆
Claude gets out of the car.
He didn't make do with Alice and Arnold, and walked directly to the small forest next to him.
The pitch-black armor clattered, and the steps were steady.
The epee behind him seemed to be old and full of cracks under the moonlight.
Claude came to a secluded area, looked around, and after confirming that there was no suspicious person, he bowed his head and silently recited a strange incantation.
A black hole suddenly appeared in front of him, and the deep vortex seemed to lead to another space.
Claude immediately knelt down on one knee with a very respectful attitude, "Your Majesty."
Black Hole: "Bernard, how is your side?"
Crowder: "I'm on my way to Denbighshire."
Listening to this conversation, it turns out that Claude is the head of the four heroes of the former kingdom, Bernard!The so-called invincible being, who should have died 400 years ago, is now resurrected! ?
Black Hole: "If I remember correctly, the prime minister of the former kingdom was buried in Denbighshire. The former king once shared the secrets of hell with him. Perhaps the last key to the army of hell is hidden in his cemetery."
Claude: "Your Majesty, I wonder if the flood of undead in Denbighshire is related to the former prime minister of the kingdom?"
Black Hole: "It is very possible that the former prime minister of the kingdom was a necromancer, and he will not die so easily. Someone may have disturbed his long sleep, but you have to be careful, the guy who was a holy rank 400 years ago does not know how powerful he is now. What's it like?"
Claude: "Yes, please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely hand over the keys of the Legion of Hell to you, just a necromancer, and there is no pressure on me."
Black Hole: "You are indeed my confidant, the head of the four heroes, show your loyalty to the fullest."
Claude: "Follow Your Majesty."
Black Hole: "However, be careful when you do things, and don't let anyone find out, especially the British royal family. If they notice our existence, things will become troublesome."
Claude: "Your Majesty, I know. In order to hide my identity, I joined the Adventurer's Guild. Now I am teaming up with a group of idiots to go to Denbighshire. With their cover, our plan will never be discovered."
Black Hole: "That's good. If someone discovers our plan, remember that no one will be left alive."
Claude: "Yes!"
Black Hole: "Carona has sent the key back, Zoe and Joey have also completed the task, now the key to summon the Hell Legion is on your side, speed up."
Claude: "I will do my best..."

The sky was thick with dark clouds, and the light rain temporarily stopped.
The distance from Denbighshire is getting closer and closer, and what awaits them may be a fierce battle or betrayal.
Alice hugged her chest, frowned, and her heart was full of resentment. She felt that Claude was really arrogant, especially that contemptuous attitude. Although Merlin also had that kind of virtue, he basically didn't show it normally.
Thinking about it carefully, Alice was a little worried about what Merlin was doing now?Didn't the trade union have already been dismantled because they couldn't receive the entrustment?
Alice felt a chill in her heart. She always felt that she was the one who brought this plague god to Wrexham. If there was trouble, she would have to be responsible.
"Ah~, it's so beautiful!" Arnold danced beside him, and he entered the state of insanity again, "The happiest thing in the world is to watch the stars with the girl you like on a starry night."
"What stars are you looking at? It's cloudy now, can you please be normal?" Alice showed a very bored expression.
"No, as long as I'm next to Miss Alice, I think it's sunny everywhere." Arnold turned on the shining light mode, and directly released the killer lines in the girl's manga.
"Arnold, do you know that this is disgusting? Please don't do this, I have no interest in you." Alice turned her head and left, feeling very disgusted with Arnold.
"Miss Alice, you will change your mind sooner or later, Merlin's big banana is just a temporary desire, passionate love is the ultimate pursuit..." Arnold followed behind like a dog's skin plaster.
