Minister Diaz was invited to the ball of Count Cruz, the castellan.
Rather than calling it a ball, it was better to change the dancing into fighting.
The venue of the party was a noble’s arena in Orson Castle.
The structure of the building was very special, like a theater, but the first floor was built into a circular arena.
On the upper floor of the arena was a gathering hall.
Minister Diaz leaned against the wooden railing at the edge of the second floor and looked at the arena below.
He soon found four knights in heavy armor.
The armor worn by these knights was completely different from ordinary knight armor.
There was no beauty in the armor at all. It looked like inferior products made of various black iron pieces. On the surface of the iron pieces, one could vaguely see the magic inscriptions engraved on them.
There were also all kinds of dangerous weapons hidden in these armors, including the weapons held by the Knights, which were also ‘magical machinery’that had been modified by alchemy engineers.
This was the popular gladiator competition in the country of steel!
Minister Diaz could not call this kind of barbaric competition a ‘show’.
“Diaz! Ever since you ran away with your tail between your legs last time, I thought you wouldn’t come back.”
......
Just as Minister Diaz was deep in thought, Count Cruz came to Minister Diaz’s side and patted him on the shoulder.
Although this count’s attitude was very warm, his words sounded particularly harsh.
Minister Diaz and this count were considered close friends many years ago, so he understood that his way of speaking was so... straightforward.
“This time, I received an order from His Majesty the King, so I came to visit the country of steel,”Minister Diaz said.
“An order from the king? Your King finally wants to introduce our country’s magical machinery technology?”
At this time, Count Cruz’s mood became even higher.
“This...”
Before Minister Diaz could deny it, Count Cruz reached out his hand and pointed at the four knights who were preparing in the arena below.
“The alchemy workshops in our country have begun to study the Knight armor powered by magic power. That one is a trial work made by Rusco Alchemy Workshop, the Dragon’s breath! The palm of its hand is engraved with a magic inscription that can cast the fire tongue spell. It can be released by the magic power stored in the primary crystal on its back...”Count Cruz began to introduce the ferocious-looking knight armor below.
Although the count’s words were vivid and vivid, it seemed that as long as he wore these four sets of knight armor, he would be able to easily kill a giant dragon.
If it was a merchant who did not know much about magical machinery, it was very likely that he would be moved by Count Cruz’s words and be prepared to pay for it.
However, minister Diaz sounded very boring.
For Minister Diaz to be able to sit in his current position, his ability to judge whether things were good or bad was an essential factor.
He could see the flaws of the four sets of knight armor at a glance. The common flaw was that they were too heavy, and it would be difficult for them to display their power in a slightly worse environment and terrain.
Secondly, a slightly stronger spellcaster would be able to knock the opponent to the ground or kill them completely before the knight armor got close to him.
As for what made Minister Diaz feel bored, it was probably because he had already seen the giant magic puppets in avatar.
Even though they were all illusions created by the purple-clothed man, the shock and impact brought by the magic puppets walking and fighting in the movie avatar.., were far more satisfying than the Knight’s armor.
“Count Cruz, I came here to prepare for a performance in my theater.”
Minister Diaz did not wait for Count Cruz to finish introducing all the knights and interrupted him at the appropriate time.
“Performance?”Count Cruz frowned slightly. “Diaz, you know that we Bismarck people don’t like the way your Farosi jumps up and down on the stage. This will only make us feel childish and bored. There will be two gladiatorial matches soon. I believe that you will enjoy the feeling of steel colliding with blood.”
“This... Cruz, I really can’t enjoy it.”
It was not that he couldn’t enjoy it, or rather, he was not in the mood to enjoy it.
After watching the battle in “Avatar”, Minister Diaz looked at the battle between the four knights. No matter how he looked at it, they looked like two toddlers.
“We Bismarck people are also unable to enjoy your performance.”Count Cruz shook his head and said, “Have you forgotten how desolate your theater is?”
“But this time is definitely different.”Minister Diaz said with a certain tone, “If you allow me, Count Cruz, after this gladiatorial competition ends, I can directly start performing below the arena.”
“After the gladiatorial competition ends? Can the girls in your troupe endure the bloody smell in the arena? Don’t be blinded by the smell. It seems that I need to send someone to clean it up.”
As he spoke, Count Cruz looked around the ball, as if he was looking for the members of Diaz Minister’s troupe.
“Count Cruz, you need to go through so much trouble. This performance doesn’t need any actors to enter the arena. When the time comes, it’s enough for you to dim the light of the primary crystal.”
Diaz minister waved his hand, reminding Count Cruz to give up this meaningless act.
“No need for actors? What kind of performance is that?”Count Cruz was slightly stunned. He still had some understanding of Faroese’s stage play.
A stage play’s performance meant that it required a theater group of a hundred or even more than two hundred people to prepare meticulously.
The number of people invited by Count Cruz to this ball was not even this many.
“You’ll know in a while. Look! Count Cruz, those two knights have already come on stage.”Minister Diaz looked at the bottom of the arena and said.
“The hatchet man and the spiked knight are just a warm-up. The Dragon Breath and the priest of eternal sleep in the second round are the two people who are most likely to win this competition. Today is just a drill, but the nobles I invited are all here for this competition.”
Although Count Cruz said so.
But when the two knights below walked into the center of the arena, Minister Diaz already heard someone shouting their names.
Obviously, the nobles who were present had high hopes for these two knights.
These were the ‘stars’of the country of steel. Their country did not have the profession of an actor. The only thing that could make the people worship were these warriors who had survived one battle after another!
The two knights had already stepped into the arena with weapons in their hands. As fresh flowers from god-knows-where drifted down from the sky, the battle was announced to begin.
