Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1602 1597: Holy Knight

Just now, she had quietly asked Allen.Allen being hired as a Saint Realm fighter by Duke Louis to protect Janet naturally had his commendable qualities.

One of them was his extensive knowledge.

Regarding the existence of many Saint Realm martial artists in the Western world, he could recount them like the back of his hand, which was quite remarkable.

And through Allen's explanation, Janet was somewhat surprised about Tovas's background.

She didn't expect Tovas to have connections with the Bright Church.

The influence of the Bright Church on Western countries is profound; even now, it maintains a deep influence, a force that rulers cannot ignore.

Tovas is the Knight Leader of the Glory Knights, the enforcers under the Bright Church!

With this, Janet naturally had more confidence in Tovas.

According to Allen, anyone who can become the Knight Leader of the Glory Knights under the Bright Church are elites among elites, even though now Tovas is retired and his strength isn't at its peak.

It's absolutely not something ordinary people can handle or compare to!

Therefore, in Allen's view, Su Chen wanting to battle Tovas is naturally asking for trouble.

Even though Su Chen also possesses High Rank Saint cultivation.

On the twenty-meter square boxing ring, neither Su Chen nor Tovas rushed to make a move; for High Rank Saints, many fights are decided in an instant.

Moreover, the battle between Su Chen and Tovas isn't any sort of competition, nor is there any rule to follow.

The fight will end only when one side truly defeats the other or one side admits defeat.

After all, what's at stake for them in this battle is no small matter.

Even without the Fraser Family's involvement in the interests of the Seven Families.

Just the stakes that both individuals put on are enough to drive people insane, whether it's fragments of ancient weapons or the Secret Treasure that can withstand a Peak Saint's full-force strike, enough to make one take such risks.

Thus, the fight between Su Chen and Tovas seemed somewhat tedious to watch—though the battle has started for a while now, neither has made any substantive attack.

They were only probing each other.

Su Chen possesses rich combat experience, but Tovas is no exception.

He counts as a power-type martial artist.

As a member of the Glory Knights, Tovas has undertaken numerous combat missions.

Apprehending dark creatures is not only the responsibility of the Heresy Court, but also a task for the Knight Order.

However, the nature of the missions for each differs.

The missions requiring the Knight Order's intervention are far larger in scope than those of the Heresy Court.

Whenever the Knight Order has a combat mission, they face nothing less than large Bloodline families or some dark creature's nest.

With so many battles honing him, Tovas naturally possesses exquisite combat experience.

He gradually began to have substantial combat probing with Su Chen.

Su Chen hadn't rushed to launch an attack on him. When Tovas took out the Holy Cross, Su Chen already had some guesses about Tovas's identity.

Previously, he felt perhaps within Tovas's body existed some powers similar to those of the Heresy Court.

The Holy Cross is filled with pure holy power, Su Chen wasn't aware that Tovas was formerly a member of the so-called Glory Knights.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be puzzled as to why Tovas possessed holy power.

Though Tovas isn't some Bishop of the Bright Church or a Deacon of the Heresy Court, he is still clergy of the Bright Church. In the combat ranks of the Bright Church, people like him are referred to as 'Holy Knights'.

Yet, presently, while battling Su Chen, Tovas hadn't unleashed his robust holy power.

Although Holy Knights also cultivate holy power, what they cultivate is more about using holy power to strengthen their bodies.

Therefore, each Holy Knight has a formidable physique, with powerful holy power imbued in every inch of their skin, which is markedly different from the Bishops in the Bright Church.

The Bishops specialize in holy power and magic.

But they are usually physically weak; although they wield terrifying magic and holy power, once engaged in close combat with dark creatures, they have no power to resist.

The Holy Knights are different; they typically rely on their strong bodies to collide physically with dark creatures, using the amplification of holy power to inflict massive damage on dark creatures.

As for the little techniques in utilizing holy power, Tovas was long well-versed in them, and he ascended quickly to become one of the Knight Leaders in the Glory Knights.

Precisely due to his outstanding military achievements.

Now in the absence of using holy power, with just his strong body, Tovas couldn't easily gain any advantage from Su Chen, which left him a bit amazed by the strength of Su Chen's physique.

After all, that punch exchanged with Su Chen previously, he had only used eighty percent of his strength, thinking himself conservative, resulting in suffering a not too large disadvantage.

But who would have imagined, even when he exerted all his strength, he still couldn't inflict any injury on Su Chen. Indeed, Su Chen's physical robustness overshadows him!

"If that's all you've got, then I'm afraid I'll be taking that cross of yours." Su Chen said with a faint smile.

He clearly felt that Tovas hadn't given his all.

The palpable holy power within him had not been utilized in the slightest, leaving Su Chen somewhat discontented.

Earlier, when the Heresy Court's people fought with the old vampire of the Nopheler Family, Su Chen hadn't gotten involved.

But he still felt the immense power from it.

Especially the holy power seemed to have an incredibly terrifying effect on the so-called dark creatures.

Su Chen wanted to see whether this holy power could subdue everyone.

"Hmph, boy, don't get too complacent. Earlier, I was merely warming up; once I get serious, you'll be hard-pressed to walk out of here intact." A shadow passed in Tovas's eyes.

The deadlock wasn't something he wished to see, but in the clash with Su Chen, his physical body evidently couldn't gain any significant advantage. If this continues, he's likely not going to be a match for Su Chen.

Compared to him, Su Chen is young and has the advantage in stamina.

However, he was reluctant to expose his strength in front of Master Gray and Bic.

Although they had interests intertwined, there's no doubt they weren't any close friends.

Should he reveal a flaw, these two might indeed take advantage.

If it weren't for Su Chen putting forth fragments of ancient weapons as stakes, Tovas might have hesitated to reveal his trump card publicly.

"Watch closely, kid!"
