“Luke’s soldiers are good, but his experience is still far inferior to Arthas’s.” Andrew was surprisingly clear-headed.
Lorraine and Zad watched the scene below the city walls with a hint of nervousness. Although not explicitly stated, this duel certainly carried the air of a clash between the knights of Donic and the knights of Pas. Therefore, this duel was, in fact, highly anticipated and generating considerable buzz.
Yun Zhe looked down at the two squads of soldiers who had already taken up their positions. He was very curious about how wars were conducted in this world. The medieval battles described in books from his previous life were too abstract and vague. Now, in this world, he had the opportunity to observe them directly, and from such a good angle. It couldn't be better.
"Gentlemen, how about we add some stakes?" Yun Zhe smiled at the group of knights, reaching into his pocket to take out the recovery scroll. "I bet Arthas Knight will win."
Newton was eager to try, but when he saw the scroll Yun Zhe took out, his face fell. The scroll was filled with pale green magical energy, which shimmered in the afterglow of the evening. It was obviously not an ordinary thing.
The others looked at Andrew and Serena, who were also somewhat interested, but seeing that both of them frowned, they stopped talking about it.
Xi Xi's eyes lit up. She had been excited ever since Yun Zhe took out the scroll. She recognized it; it was a magic scroll that only the elves possessed, with extremely strong restorative abilities, making it an invaluable lifeline.
“Miss, Miss,” Xixi tugged at Serena’s sleeve, “bet with him, that scroll is a good thing.”
"Nonsense, XiXi!" Serena glared at XiXi. "Do you expect me to bet on Arthas losing?"
Xi Xi was taken aback, only then realizing that she had indeed lost her composure. Her face flushed, and she quietly apologized to Serena. While apologizing, she couldn't help but curse Yun Zhe inwardly, for causing her to be scolded by her mistress.
Seeing that no one was participating, Yun Zhe pretended to be annoyed and took back the scroll. His purpose was not to actually open a betting pool, but to let everyone know that he had a powerful recovery scroll. That way, even if someone was suspicious of his rapid recovery, they would dispel their doubts after seeing the scroll.
At this moment, a bugle sounded, and the battle for the city officially began.
