Chapter 172 Crossing the Fire Ring
Kilwater led the crowd to the City Lord's Mansion.
Instantly, horns rang out and drums roared.
The beastmen gathered in the square in front of the City Lord's Mansion. Liu Jianan looked around and saw that it was full of beastmen.
Such a scene of thousands of people in the streets was really shocking.
"Everyone, please listen to me." Kilwater said loudly, "Today is the Ten Thousand Beasts Festival, the most meaningful Ten Thousand Beasts Festival I have ever experienced since I was a child."
His voice was mixed with a strong fighting spirit, enough for everyone to hear what he was saying.
Gilwater continued: "Ten days ago, our orcs were in dire straits. The blood clan soldiers were at the gates of the city, and the two armies fought, resulting in countless casualties."
"Even I was poisoned and there was no cure."
"But at the critical moment of life and death for the orcs, our holy son, our great king, His Royal Highness Prince An, appeared."
Gilwater turned everyone's attention to Liu Jianan, and he praised him without reservation: "He saved countless seriously injured orc warriors."
"The blood clan was pressing forward step by step, and it was he and his companions who turned the tide, fearless of life and death, and brought a glimmer of hope to the orcs."
"Please call his name with me."
In an instant, the emotions of all the orcs were aroused to a climax.
"Liu Jianan! Liu Jianan! Liu Jianan!"
"Long live His Royal Highness Prince An!"
Wave after wave of voices swept over, and Liu Jianan was somewhat flattered.
He looked at Kilwater in surprise. Why didn't he discuss this with him in advance?
Now he was a little overwhelmed.
Not only that, the label page in his book of superpowers, the label "Savior of Elves" changed again.
Now it became "Savior of Elves and Orcs".
The effect also changed to: While wearing the label, the favorability of elves, orcs, and animals towards him will increase to above friendly.
At the same time, the affinity of the wood element is increased by 100%, and when using the wood, deformation, and strength powers, you can get a double effect bonus.
Well, anyway, the result is good.
Liu Jianan felt relieved and was about to urge Gilvote to stop talking nonsense and get to the point and announce the start of the festival.
However, he smiled and suddenly knelt on one knee and took out the Sedasiene flower, the symbol of love of the orcs, from his arms.
The flower was very beautiful, with pure white and translucent petals, and the stamens were beautiful and lovely, with a faint fragrance.
Liu Jianan blinked in confusion until Gilvote said loudly: "The orcs are still lacking a queen. I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince An is willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with me and share the prosperity?"
Huh?
Liu Jianan looked calm on the surface, but in fact, his soul had been gone for a while.
What kind of development is this? He really doesn't understand.
Is this how the King of Yi Zi Bing Xiang means to stand shoulder to shoulder?
No one knew who started the conversation: "Promise him, promise him!"
"Marry him! Marry him!"
It was conceivable that as long as he nodded, tonight's Ten Thousand Beasts Festival would go down in history.
Duan Haiping wanted to take Liu Jianan away from here.
If he stayed here any longer, he was afraid that he would not be able to resist going on a killing spree.
Liu Jianan pinched his palm, signaling him to be patient.
If he just left like this, wouldn't it be too easy for Kilwater?
No matter what the other party's purpose was, proposing to him at such a time when everyone was watching was just making things difficult for him.
He wanted to use the power of the crowd to force him to agree.
No way.
Liu Jianan looked solemn, took the flower from the orc king's hand, and played with it carelessly.
He said calmly: "I don't like being a queen. If you are willing to give me the position of king, I can consider making you a queen."
Kilwater's eyes lit up: "Are you really willing?"
Liu Jianan: "..."
This is not right, the king of the beastman tribe is willing to be the queen for him.
This is too outrageous!
Perhaps sensing Liu Jianan's warning look, Kilwater finally compromised: "Okay, okay, I'm just joking to cheer you up."
The crowd was naturally disappointed. They hoped that His Royal Highness Prince An could stay in the beastman tribe, especially Sandner and Peter.
If Liu Jianan is willing to stay in the beastman tribe, in the next hundred years, no, until Liu Jianan dies, the beastman tribe will stand at the top of the continent!
What a pity, how could the king be so disappointing!
However, no matter what the crowd thought, the Ten Thousand Beasts Festival was held as usual.
The festive atmosphere quickly diluted the gloom of the king's failed confession - presumably this has become a topic of conversation among the beastmen after dinner.
Liu Jianan then felt relieved to settle accounts with Kilwater: "What nonsense were you talking about just now? It almost scared people to death."
Kilwater said aggrievedly: "I am sincere, King An, don't you really consider me?"
"Strong body, eight-pack abs, hardworking, big and good at sex..."
"Shut up!" Liu Jianan rolled his eyes. He could see that Kilwater was a reckless person who dared to say anything.
Regardless of whether his confession was long-planned or impulsive, Liu Jianan would never agree to it.
"This matter ends here," Liu Jianan did not intend to argue too much, "Xiao Duan, let's go."
After tonight, he will leave the beastmen, go to the passage they came from, and return to the real world.
Duan Haiping was waiting for Liu Jianan to say this, and couldn't wait to pull Liu Jianan out of the gate of the city lord's mansion.
The city was very lively. In the center of the square was a high platform, on which the beastmen's specialty, crossing the fire ring, was being performed.
Liu Jianan could not help but stop and pulled Xiao Duan to watch the show.
A raging fire was burning on the fire ring, and the performer's assistant used magic to control the rapid rotation and movement.
The performer screamed and rushed towards the fire ring like an arrow.
The flames roared and seemed to swallow him, but he was not afraid.
He leaped, his body drew a beautiful arc in the air, and successfully passed through the fire ring!
In an instant, the applause was thunderous, and the cheers continued. Liu Jianan also applauded.
The assistant of the performer on the stage suddenly asked: "Who wants to challenge the fire ring? If you succeed in the challenge, you can get ninety-nine Sedasiene flowers!"
You know, Sedasiene flowers usually grow on cliffs. It is not easy to pick one, let alone ninety-nine.
It is precisely because it is a high-altitude flower that is difficult to pick that it is regarded by the beastmen as a flower that symbolizes love.
Liu Jianan heard that many couples were ready to take action. One of them, a lion beastman, who boasted of his agility, jumped onto the stage and said, "I'll do it!"
The assistant reminded him, "Our fire ring rotates very fast. I'm sure you've seen it just now. Even so, do you still want to challenge it?"
The lion beastman said indifferently, "What nonsense, let's start!"
The assistant was interested and said no more, but asked his companions to prepare water and be ready to rescue people at any time.
The challenge began, and the assistant manipulated the fire ring to rotate rapidly.
The lion beastman's eyes kept spinning with the fire ring. Before he started to cross, he made himself dizzy.
"No matter!" He shook his head, concentrated his energy, and adjusted his breathing.
His legs and hands have been transformed into beasts, his hair gradually turned golden, and his tail appeared behind him.
His beastiality is quite high, no wonder he has the courage to challenge the fire circle.
The higher the beastman's beastiality, the stronger they are.
Liu Jianan evaluated in his heart that he felt that the probability of success of this lion beastman was quite high.
"Roar!"
As the beastman roared, it used its hands and feet, and its agile figure rushed towards the fire circle.
The hearts of the audience were also in their throats.
The moment he landed, the beastman's face was filled with joy.
But soon the smile on his face collapsed, he felt a heat wave coming from behind him, and the air was filled with the smell of burning!
He rolled around in the middle of the platform in a state of panic, shouting: "I'm on fire, put out the fire, save me!"
Because water was prepared in advance, the assistant gave an order and a basin of cold water put out the flames on the lion beastman.
The assistant kept a decent smile: "I'm sorry, you failed the challenge, is there anyone who wants to try it?"
The strength of the lion beastman is obvious to all, and even he failed, so you can imagine how difficult this challenge is.
The audience in the audience immediately gave up the idea of ​​challenging.
Silence is Cambridge tonight.
Liu Jianan wanted to laugh, but he heard a familiar voice beside him: "I want to challenge!"
He looked at Xiao Duan in surprise. For those useless flowers, it was not worth risking his life!
However, Xiao Duan only left him a chic back.
