Chapter 687: The Fair Judgment of Joelson. The Duel Was Coming to an End.
The moment he saw the powerful lightning ball in the hands of Captain Nair, Vice-Captain Hansen understood everything.
He knew that the magic energy contained in the lightning ball was much stronger than his Buddha's Fiery Lotus!
The captain of the guards, Nair, was really going easy on him. He really didn't use his full strength.
This truth made the vice-captain of the guards, Hansen, feel a wave of disappointment in his heart.
He really didn't expect the other party to be so powerful.
That night, in the tent, the other party's strength was still much weaker than his.
However, only a few years had passed.
This Guard Captain Nair had already surpassed him so much earlier!
It was simply unacceptable!
Such a fact was placed in front of him, causing the once arrogant Vice-Captain Hansen to lose face for a moment!
His previous arrogance, now, was so laughable.
After all, Guard Captain Nair was the guard captain!
As the man who controlled the military in the underground city, as the captain of the guards, he had many things to deal with every day!
Vice-Captain Hansen knew very well how busy the position of captain of the guards was.
He had to go around in front of the nobles every day!
The nobles held banquets and socialized with celebrities. As the captain of the guards who controlled the military in the underground city, Nair had to attend.
If he didn't come, he wouldn't give a face to the nobles in the palace.
In the palace, nothing was as simple as it was in the barracks.
In the army, one meant one, two meant two.
If you said that you didn't want to eat because of a stomachache, you meant that you didn't want to eat because you didn't have an appetite. If you said that you had something to do, you meant that you didn't have time.
As the vice-captain of the guards, it was very easy for Hansen to handle things in the army.
If he said one thing to his subordinate, it meant one thing. If he said two things, then his subordinate understood two things.
The matters that he had to deal with every day could be dealt with in half an hour.
However, as the captain of the guards, Nair was different.
In the palace, if he said one thing, it might not mean one thing.
The hearts of the people in the palace were complicated. Under the absolute power of the king, all the forces were scheming and calculating.
The invitation to the banquet was not just to invite people to dinner. It was an invitation from the nobles to a gathering. It was also not just to invite him to eat, drink, and have fun.
All of this had a purpose in the banquet.
If they were to casually reject their invitation, the information behind it would be quite huge!
That's right, it was basically equivalent to falling out with the faction that the aristocrat belonged to!
In such a scheming palace, if the captain of the guards, Nair, were to make a mistake, he would fall into a bottomless hell and never be able to turn over a new leaf!
Every step he took in the palace was like walking on a tightrope without any protective measures on the peak. Once he made a mistake, falling into a bottomless pit was light, but losing his life was more important!
In such a structured palace, every step was like riding a unicycle on a tightrope, and every step was dancing on the tightrope.
Under such a powerful pressure, the strength of Captain Nair was actually still steadily increasing. This was not a level that could be wiped out by those natural treasures!
Natural treasures could speed up cultivation, but that did not mean that one did not need to cultivate with natural treasures.
The captain of the guards, Nair, must have been cultivating diligently when he did not know until he surpassed him!
Such a captain of the guards, Nair, surpassed him without any objections.
At the very least, he could not find any fault with such a stubborn person like Vice-Captain Hansen. He deeply felt that the strength of the captain of the guards, Nair, far surpassed his own, moreover, it was through the hard work of Captain Nair himself.
Such strength, Vice-Captain Hansen knew that he had lost.
At this moment, Vice-Captain Hansen was completely convinced. He had completely admitted defeat in his heart.
With a plop, Vice-Captain Hansen slowly knelt down. He looked at Captain Nair with a face full of shame.
One had to know that Vice-Captain Hansen valued his dignity very much. To Captain Nair, his life might not be as important as the dignity on his knees!
"I'm sorry, I lost!"
Vice-Captain Hansen knelt down and kowtowed deeply.
"My god, this Vice-Captain Hansen really lowered his head!"
"That's right, oh my god, making this guy kneel down is even harder than killing his head!"
Everyone was shocked.
Looking at the guard's Vice-Captain Hansen kneeling on the ground, everyone was in disbelief. They hurriedly wiped their eyes and looked at the person kowtowing and admitting his mistake. It was really Guard Vice-Captain Hansen, only then did they nod their heads in surprise.
This was really too shocking.
And among the guards, some of them also fell to the ground with pale faces.
"It's over, it's really all over..."
One of them looked at the stage with a pale face and the scene of kneeling and admitting his mistake to Captain Nair. His heart was filled with shock.
The scene in front of them made them feel a chill in their hearts.
They knew very well what this meant to them.
This would mean that in the duel between Captain Nair and Vice-Captain Hansen, Captain Nair's victory was complete!
Everyone had mixed feelings!
The victory of Captain Nair made his supporters cheer and jump in joy.
As soldiers who supported Captain Nair from the beginning to the end, they were ecstatic.
The victory of Captain Nair would definitely reward those who had supported them before the battle!
The path of promotion and wealth was opening up for all of them!
Everyone was ecstatic.
For them, gaining recognition, promotion, and wealth was already very obvious.
However, for another group of people, the supporters of Vice-Captain Hansen, this was the beginning of a nightmare.
For them, the defeat of the vice-captain of the guards could be said to be the worst news they could hear in their lives.
One had to know that the victory of the captain of the guards, Nair, meant that the side that supported Vice-Captain Hansen had suffered a huge defeat!
Under such circumstances, everyone was faced with an important question.
What should they do if they were on the wrong side?
