The infinite journey of knights

Chapter 24 Investments and Returns

"Zander lost?"

People all around stared blankly in front of them, some couldn't believe their eyes: "How is that possible?"

"I must be dreaming"

Yeah, how is that possible?
Zander, this is a well-known figure in the academy. Although he is not the strongest person in the knight academy, he is also a figure that most people need to look up to.

With his strength, he couldn't find any opponents in the entire academy except those few people, and now he was defeated like this?

how could it be possible!
The people around couldn't believe it, especially the two who were easily brought down by Yadimu before, stared at Zander in a daze at this moment, with disbelief all over their faces.

In fact, they already had an ominous premonition when Yadimu made his move.

After all, they are not ordinary people, but well-trained knight apprentices.

In terms of strength, they may not be able to compare with people like Zander, but they still have vision and can feel the general strength.

It's not that they haven't fought against Zander, and they still have a certain understanding of Zander's strength, so they already had a vague premonition before Yatimu made a move.

It's just that even so, when the result was really presented like this, they still felt unbelievable.

After all, Zander is a celebrity in the academy, a figure who has gone through many battles without losing.

But now, he was defeated, the process did not experience any twists and turns, and he was defeated straightforwardly.

It failed completely.

"I won."

The long sword fell to the ground, looking at the opponent in front of him, Yatimu's face was calm, and he said: "According to the agreement, you should take your friends and leave."

"I lost"

Zander looked blankly in front of him, his eyes still focused on his long sword at the moment.

He was recalling the feeling just now.

Just now, he was close to Yadimu and was about to start a fight, and everything was over.

The opponent's speed and strength were above his, so that he took his long sword easily without much effort.

And judging from Cai Cai's performance, if the opponent is willing, he can also be easily knocked to the ground.

In front of the opponent, he was no different from the others before him.

They are all weak.

That's it
He silently picked up his long sword, looked at Yatim in front of him, and smiled wryly: "It seems that your action of drawing the sword doesn't seem to make much sense now."

Yeah, it doesn't really make sense.

From the beginning to the end, Yatimu's sword just touched him.

Other than that, there is no other use.

The opponent's strength surpassed him so much that he didn't need to use a sword at all, just relying on his own strength was enough to defeat him.

The opponent's action of drawing his sword was not so much for fighting, as it was just for his face.

"This is the respect due to the opponent."

Yatimu's face was calm, and he spoke.

"Basic respect?"

Zander turned around silently with a wry smile on his face.

He left silently, taking two apprentices beside him.

After they left, the people around quickly dispersed.

Of course, there are also some who haven't left yet, looking at Yatim with excitement, wondering what they are thinking.

What's more, as he walked towards Yatimu, he said loudly: "Hello, can I get to know you? My name is"

It seems that there are quite a lot of such people, both men and women.

Faced with this situation, Yatim was a little at a loss.

If it is a battle, he will not be afraid of anything, no matter what the scene will be, he will face it head-on, and he will never be afraid.

But the situation in front of him was a bit troublesome for him.

He had never experienced anything like it.

Fortunately, Reagan on the side saw this situation, so he rushed forward quickly.

It took him a while to get rid of those people, and then he took Yatimu to leave quickly by taking advantage of a gap.

After a while, the two breathed a sigh of relief.

There was no one around.

"You don't seem to like the situation?"

After everything quieted down, Reagan looked at Yatim beside him with some doubts.

"I can't say I don't like it."

Yatimu shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm just not used to it."

"You'll get used to it later."

Reagan shrugged and said, "You defeated Zander in front of so many people. I can guarantee that you will become a popular figure in the academy in a short time."

"Those people in the academy will come to you like crazy."

"Find me?"

Yatimu frowned, a little puzzled: "What do you want me for?"

"Or for investment, or maybe I hope you can help solve some troubles."

Reagan said casually: "After all, knight apprentices are also considered professionals, and at your age, there is a high possibility of becoming a real knight in the future."

"Those people naturally want to deal with you so that they can benefit from you in the future."

"Just like you?"

Hearing these words, Yadimu was thoughtful, then looked at Reagan in front of him, and suddenly spoke.

These words made Regan cough and choke on a sip of water, causing Allie to step forward and pat his brother on the back.

"If you have to say it, yes"

After a while, seeing that Yatimu didn't seem to be angry, Reagan managed to calm down and said, "You know, Yatimu. I'm just a son of a commoner, and I have nothing to do with it in the upper levels."

"So I sponsored a lot of people, including you, Yatimu, and Kelly before."

"But it's a pity that when it comes to the critical moment, only you, Yadimu, really come to help me, and the others are simply unreliable."

At the end, he had a wry smile on his face.

"This is normal."

Yatimu was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Most things in this world have their bargaining chips. For them, the things you pay are not enough to make them pay such a big risk."

The so-called help also depends on the occasion.

Some insignificant favors may be done if they are helped, but to offend the son of a distinguished marquis for the sake of Reagan, a normal person would not do such a thing.

After all, reality is cruel.

In the face of power, not everyone has the courage to stand up.

In other words, what Reagan paid was not enough for people to stand up.

Listening to Yatimu's words, Reagan couldn't help being silent.

He actually knew this too.

In the past, in order to make good friends with those so-called "friends", he did pay a lot.

But can those things really compare to the risk of offending a marquis' son?
Definitely not worth it.

Reagan knew this very well.

But it is acceptable intellectually, but somewhat unbearable emotionally.

"Some people are different."

Finally, he looked at Yatimu in front of him, somewhat comforted: "At least there is Yatimu, isn't there?"
