Wang Rui had no choice but to wait patiently. Since he could afford the price, the inn arranged a small independent courtyard for him. Although it was just ordinary, it was better than being quiet.
If he hadn't been worried about the large number of king-level experts in Skyfire City, maybe he would have broken into the palace directly.
He Na also curbed her playfulness and began to practice swordsmanship. As the top swordsman in the Emerald City, Aurora was of great use to her.
The two of them were silent and moved. Wang Rui continued to recover from his injuries, while He Na continued to improve her strength. Wang Rui could already sense that she was about to break through the first stage and enter the foundation building stage. For this reason, he specially refined the extension.
During the Nian Dan Festival, a batch of elixirs were refined for her to facilitate her subsequent practice.
By the way, about seven or eight days later, someone came from the Pombel Mansion. He was a servant, but his expression was quite arrogant. He probably saw too many people like Wang Rui who came to ask for help.
"Are you the king's guard?" This barbarian man is three points taller than the average barbarian man. Although he is only a servant, he has a murderous aura that comes from the battlefield. It seems that this man was once a barbarian warrior.
Wang Rui raised his head, looked at this person, nodded and replied: "Yes, who are you?"
"You don't need to worry about who I am. My master, Duke Pombert, is back. Don't you want to ask to see him? Are you ready?" The man asked in a condescending tone.
Wang Rui nodded, not planning to bring He Na with him, but planning to go alone, so he said, "Okay, let's go."
The man did not move, but sneered: "Are you really ready?"
"Yes, you can go." Wang Rui didn't react.
"I don't think so, you'd better get ready." The man's eyes were cold and cold, and Wang Rui fell silent.
At this time, Ha Na, who had just finished practicing, walked over while wiping her sweat.
"Brother, are you going out?" She asked anxiously, fearing that Wang Rui would leave her alone.
Wang Rui nodded, and then said: "You wait here for me to come back, I will come back as soon as I can."
"Brother, I..." He Na was a little unwilling. When the man saw He Na, his eyes suddenly lit up, like a hungry wolf seeing delicious food. Especially now that He Na has gone through several months of recuperation and practice.
Become full of sexy charm.
"Take her with you, otherwise you don't have to go." The man pointed at He Na, drooling. He didn't care about Wang Rui. Even if he was bullied, he deserved it.
Duke Pombel was a big figure in the Glory Dynasty. He was not only a second-level lord, he even had some entanglements with those royal families.
Besides, Wang Rui was not a barbarian, but he just relied on the letter of introduction, so this man did not take him into consideration at all.
Although Wang Rui has a great reputation in Fire Phoenix City and Emerald City, his reputation is not well-known here in Skyfire City, and coupled with his status as a human monk, it is inevitable that he will be despised and neglected.
"Then I won't go, please go back!" Wang Rui closed the door to see the guests off. The man was stunned and was ejected out of the door by a strong force and fell to the ground.
"You are so brave. How dare you insult my people from the Duke's Palace?" The man suddenly became angry and got up. Then he pulled out a ray of light from the silver fine iron wristband in his hand, and instantly turned it into an axe. Then he swung the axe.
He struck towards the door of the mansion where Wang Rui was.
He came from the battlefield, and naturally used the same tactics as on the battlefield. He was also once a brave warrior.
"Stop being so arrogant!" A woman's scolding voice came, the door opened, and then a two-handed long sword stabbed at him, immediately blocking the axe.
The man realized that although the opponent's magic power was not as deep as his own, he was extremely powerful and actually suppressed him. Then, He Na resisted his ax and slashed with the force, and the man was forced back several steps before stopping.
"It's you!" The man saw Ha Na's delicate face and really didn't expect it.
He thought that He Na was just a barbarian woman serving others, but unexpectedly she was very powerful.
Wang Rui stood aside with his arms folded, as if watching a show, and casually released a barrier power, covering dozens of meters around him. Not only could the sounds inside not be heard, but people outside could not even think about it.
Break in.
The man became angry and was forced to retreat by a woman of his own race who was not as powerful as him. He was very embarrassed, so he raised the ax in his hand again, and released a powerful metal power from his body, which was injected into the weapon. At the same time, his moves changed.
It was so fierce that He Na could only deal with it for a while.
Wang Rui naturally saw that this man's strength was only in the early stages of foundation building. Of course, it was still stronger than He Na's ninth-level Qi training peak cultivation level. However, He Na had natural divine power and was rare for opponents of the same level.
This breakthrough point, the experience of gaining enlightenment, will benefit He Na infinitely, so he did not stop or intervene unless He Na's life was threatened.
Feeling the man's hatred for her and the pressure of a life-and-death fight on the battlefield, Ha Na was not frightened, but became excited. Her body seemed to be born with the blood of a warrior, which was also the inheritance of the barbarians.
Despite the man's combat skills, Ha Na was no longer what she used to be. Under the guidance of Aurora, the master of swordsmanship, her strength improved very quickly.
In addition, Wang Rui was by her side, so her mentality was very good. After being suppressed by the man's combat skills, she became able to compete with him offensively and defensively. Although her magic power was not as good as that of the other man, it was obvious that the man's training was not the same.
What powerful skills are, they are just superficial skills on the battlefield.
After about a stick of incense, the man's mana was greatly depleted, but He Na became more and more courageous as she fought, which made him complain incessantly.
The man reached into the storage bag on his chest impatiently, took out a bottle of potion, and wanted to swallow it to restore his magic power.
Unfortunately, how could He Na let him replenish his mana easily? The big sword in her hand suddenly turned, forming a strong wind, and then a strong earth sword energy was slashed out. The man had no time to swallow the potion, so he hurriedly raised the ax in front of him.
Click!
Although he blocked the gravel sword energy, he found that the potion broke and was lost instantly.
"Damn it." These mana-restoring potions are not cheap. Each bottle costs several pieces of low-grade spirit stones. The man usually wouldn't bear to use them in fights, but unexpectedly, someone broke one of the potions, causing him to completely go berserk.
The whole person's skin emitted bursts of white mist, and then the skin turned red, as if it was cooked.
He Na was stunned, and then thought of what Master Aurora had mentioned to her. Among the barbarian warriors, some people practice techniques that deliberately release their madness to increase their strength and at the same time lower their own defense. This characteristic is called "madness"
".
There is generally a time limit for going berserk, which can be no more than a quarter of an hour at most, or even lower. However, during the berserk period, a person's combat power will be greatly improved, and the power of combat skills will be further enhanced. Some barbarian warriors will even burn their own weapons.
Life will perish together with the enemy.
Now, He Na finally saw this scene with her own eyes. She couldn't help but hold the hilt of the sword firmly with both hands, and released all her spiritual power to perform the unique skills taught to her by Aurora.
She was originally on the verge of a breakthrough, but could never find an opportunity. But at this moment, she felt a hint of the artistic conception of foundation building in her heart.
Wang Rui's eyes showed a trace of approval. This was exactly his goal. He Na was by no means a flower vase, nor was she a simple Taoist companion. She might become the leader of the barbarians.
After turning on the madness, the man's appearance and body shape have changed to a certain extent. The whole person has become a lot more evil, his hair has also turned fiery red, and the skin on his body has not only become red, but also has traces of golden flames flickering.
The meridians were protruding, the eyes were filled with madness, and two sharp fangs sprouted from the mouth.
"Today, I will kill you two." The man said arrogantly, and then moved his feet, his body shape was like an arrow leaving the string, and his speed was extremely fast.
He Na gritted her teeth and used the special epee skill taught to her by Aurora. The long sword made a buzzing sound, and then when her mana was poured into the sky, the sword light suddenly became one foot longer, facing the mad rush.
The man spread his fan-shaped sword energy and swept across.
This move is one of the unique moves of Aurora's sword skills, called "Edgeless Slash". Any enemy who dares to get close will be struck by the sword's energy in a short time. "Sword Eye" will be planted in the sword.
Right now, He Na's attack will cause additional damage to him, making it difficult for his wounds to heal, and his reaction and movement will be reduced.
The sword energy swept past, and the man went crazy. He was so fast that he almost dodged them all, but he was still caught by the sword energy.
Suddenly, a heavy feeling came over him, and then the parts of his body that had been hit by the sword energy became fragile, as if there were wounds, causing his speed and reaction to slow down a bit.
However, facing this minor injury, he didn't care. He picked up the ax and used his combat skills again. Suddenly, the ax released black mist, and for a moment the dead souls on the battlefield appeared and howled. He Na's body trembled, and she seemed to see the battlefield.
The figures of thousands of dead souls.
"Focus on the present moment, there is nothing outside your mind." Wang Rui cast a sound wave spell, which instantly made He Na wake up.
She no longer hesitated, and the long sword in her hand burst out with dazzling light. Facing the dead souls represented by the billowing black mist, a ball of light and shadow merged into a long sword and thrust out.
The two spiritual powers collided, and an impact suddenly erupted, causing the small barrier to feel like a turbulent storm.
He Na's spiritual power is not as deep as that of the man, but the man has consumed most of it before. In terms of spiritual power, the two are already equal. Therefore, the decision of victory or defeat falls on the strength of both sides. In this aspect, He Na has the upper hand.
With his natural advantage, the sword energy of the long sword broke through the blockade of the black mist and stabbed the man on the shoulder.
However, the mad man almost ignored the damage caused by this sword, and the ax struck He Na's head, and the head was about to be separated.
