In front of everyone, Kate, who was about to hit the flying sword, suddenly leaned down sharply without slowing down at all. Her whole body seemed like mercury flowing on the table, moving quickly and effortlessly.
Lund slid past the knight. This angle, this speed, this arc-shaped sliding that was far beyond the control range, all of these combined together made Leerta's absolutely exquisite
The sword became an illusion, and because this sword is so perfect as an offensive move, it not only concentrates power but also takes into account various changes. The fatal decisive blow and careful overall control are completely unified.
This perfect, absolute offensive sword has a fatal and irreparable shortcoming. This move is an absolutely offensive move, but it does not provide any measures to defend against the opponent's attack. This move was not intended to be used in the first place.
It is for defense. When this move is thrust out, the opponent is no longer able to attack, so this move does not need to consider its own defense at all. This is the fatal weakness of that perfect offensive move.
Amidst the exclamations, Kate slid behind Leerta as fast as an arc of lightning. He did not draw his sword, he just stood there quietly, because Kate already knew that he had won.
, and he also knows that his opponent also knows this.
There was a sudden silence on and off the stage. Only the melody played by the wind lingered around the altar. Suddenly, a few extremely light and small voices sounded from the surrounding crowd, and they said the same sentence.
talk:
"The Shadow of the Moon".
Enleco really couldn't understand what they were talking about, what exactly was the "Shadow of the Moon" and what it had to do with the sword skill Kate had just used.
However, when he heard Leerta on the altar repeating the word silently repeatedly, his dull eyes and his lost expression, all this told Enleco that the "Shadow of the Moon" was definitely not simple.
Just when Enleco was extremely doubtful about this, someone finally stepped forward to solve all his problems. Unexpectedly, this person turned out to be Duke Haguero. He only heard him say: "Everyone, see clearly.
That is not the "Shadow of the Moon", but it is indeed very similar to the "Shadow of the Moon". I think this should be the magic sword skill used by Mr. Kate by combining sword skills with wind magic."
Kate on the stage nodded, and Hagrid continued: "The Shadow of Moon Void uses arc-shaped footwork in conjunction with the flow of "force", relying on the center of gravity of the human body as the axis, in the direction of rapid advancement.
By moving the center of gravity, a gliding avoidance method is created that exceeds the normal state. However, although Mr. Kate's method is very imaginary in appearance with the "Shadow of the Moon", its essence is not exactly the same. If I read it correctly,
Mr. Kate's avoidance method is actually a flexible method of using the wind wing technique. Because Mr. Kate is wrapped in the wind wing, Mr. Kate's attack and action methods are definitely not limited to arc-shaped sliding methods.
However, I would like to remind Mr. Kate that your combat method is not yet proficient. This method also has a weakness. Because it moves through magic, there is inevitably a gap in action conversion. In fact, with the Knight of Relta,
In terms of strength, he could definitely see this gap, but he was swayed by preconceived notions, which led to this failure. The "Shadow of Moon Void" that could only slide in an arc was a technique of shifting the center of gravity.
, so there is no such gap, and even halfway through the taxi, the direction and form of the taxi can still be changed, which should be something Mr. Kate cannot do."
These words may not sound special to others, but the feelings of the two people on the stage are completely different. Kate was extremely shocked by this. This kind of attack was the same as that of Pa, the leader of the Royal Knights.
Master Sting spent a lot of effort to create it. Originally, his terrible teacher in Chrissy's laboratory did teach him how to use magic in battle, and laid an extremely solid foundation for himself.
, but, unfortunately, although Chris is almost invincible in magic, she obviously knows nothing about knight fighting, so the method she teaches is to use magic as a weapon.
A special weapon. After I and the Holy Knight Pastin calmed down and carefully studied the possibilities of combining magic and martial arts, I realized that instead of using magic as an offensive tool, it is better to use it as an auxiliary weapon.
The means are more appropriate.
One of the most successfully combined magic and martial attack methods is this fast movement method called "Wind Riding". This is my own killer! One of them, the Holy Knight Pastin also said that he can
There are only a few knights in the world who can withstand this kind of attack, and I am convinced of it. Unexpectedly, it only took one time for others to see through it. The knight who saw through the essence of his attack method was even in the competition.
The characteristics that were not shown in the attack were all guessed and the scores were accurate, and the shortcomings of this attack method that he had not even considered were pointed out.
Kate's heart was suddenly filled with awe for the Duke of Haguero.
On the backstage, there was another person wearing a Spinosaurus decoration who was secretly watching Duke Haguero in the audience. That person stared at the sharp-edged Son of the Sun with a deep and sharp gaze.
This person with a completely different appearance was exactly what Enleco called a middle-aged fox. Joe had been mentally sizing up this paladin, who was a few years younger than him.
Suddenly, this middle-aged delinquent thought that it would be great if Enleco was really a woman. In this way, the pervert could be obsessed with this and that in the room all day long, making him crazy.
I am fascinated and exhausted. When the time comes, if the fight really starts, I will be able to completely defeat him with three strikes, five strikes and two strikes, and it will be easy.
At this time, Enleco only felt an inexplicable chill all over his body. He only felt that an extremely strong crisis had enveloped him for a moment, and Enleco really couldn't understand this phenomenon.
At this time, the scene on the stage had changed. Relta, who was originally depressed and depressed, suddenly regained his composure and said to Kate with a solemn expression: "Dear Mr. Knight Magician, please give me another chance.
Let me experience your amazing skills again." After saying this, he anxiously waited for Kate's further answer.
The people in the audience were waiting with the same anxious mood. Everyone wanted to see a more exciting competition. The fierceness of the battle and the excitement of the duel just now really amazed the people around them, but unfortunately, it was too
It's almost too short. Many people find it quite unsatisfactory.
Kate on the stage hesitated to answer, which aroused everyone's interest even more. Everyone's appetite was whetted by this man who was both a knight and a magician. After a long time, Kate came back to her senses.
, he asked a question that made the people around him fall down on the spot. He only heard him say: "Excuse me, Mr. Leerta, is there anyone in your country who can use the secret skill you mentioned - "Shadow of the Moon"?
Who is this person? I hope to ask him for advice in person."
Relta didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw the magic apprentice in front of him, but he quite admired Kate's style.
Relta pointed to Duke Haguero in the audience and said: "The Shadow of the Moon Void is the unique skill of the Paladin Mr. Haguero. No one else can do it except him."
Kate is no stranger to Hagrid. He knows very well that Duke Hagrid is an absolute enemy of the forces he represents. It is absolutely impossible to learn the "Shadow of the Moon Void" from him.
Kate fell into trouble for a moment, but then his eyes lit up, an idea jumped out of his mind, and he turned around and glanced at Enleco.
※※※
Enleco in the audience was frightened when he saw this pleading look. How could he not know what Kate was thinking? But for that "Shadow of the Moon", Enleco himself felt a little bit concerned about it.
Curious, he had seen Hagrid use this wonderful movement technique more than once. Every time Hagrid always used this stunt and suddenly appeared behind him silently, this boring guy couldn't help but wonder.
Use that kind of magical skill that only he can use in the whole Kaoqi Kingdom in those boring places. Just thinking about it, Enleco has a huge headache.
At this time, the competition on the altar had officially begun. This time was completely different from the previous two times. The Knight of Relta used all his strength and launched a storm-like attack from the beginning. This time he
The attack did not retain any strength at all. Every sword was powerful and steady, and the changes of moves were agile and smooth. He absolutely did not dare to reveal any flaws. The defense around him was at its limit, even if it weakened the intensity of the attack.
, Leerta did not dare to be careless in the slightest. The opponent in his eyes now was not a fledgling apprentice knight engaging in a training swordsmanship confrontation, but a paladin who served as the examiner in the knight promotion examination.
He didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. His opponent's strength was absolutely profound, and Leerta was really taking every step. As expected, as Haguero said, Leerta calmed down and really
Small gaps can be seen in Kate's transition.
Relta's fighting became smoother and smoother. Although he was still unable to seize the gap between Kate's attack and defense to counterattack, nor could he predict his sliding direction based on Kate's actions, Relta was able to dodge every lightning strike from Kate in time.
Like an attack, Leerta felt more and more that this was exactly the same as when a formal magician was fighting. As long as he avoided the wind blade issued by the wind magician in time, although he could not attack the flying magician, he could still guarantee his own protection.
Safe, but the sword moves of the stabbing sword used by Kate to attack are much more flexible than the wind blade, and also more difficult to resist. Unlike the wind blade, you only need to learn the "force" or fighting spirit for self-defense. Cooperation
The body's dodge can make it completely harmless and not threatened by the wind blade. But Kate's sword is not something that can withstand it.
However, Leerta has gradually figured out a strategy to resist this kind of attack. Since the opponent is the wind, he must not dance with the wind. He must stand firmly in the wind like Mount Tai and use the most reliable defense to resist the unknown.
The strong wind blows from nowhere. This is a technique for fighting the wind that Leerta has been familiar with since he was a child.
Seeing that the old attack was no longer enough, Kate decided to change her attack method. In order to avoid the recurrence of the first failure, Kate used several quick combination attacks to force Leerta to the altar, forcing her to retreat far to another level.
With the rapid chanting, the new magic has taken shape. Since Kate always only uses relatively low-level magic, the time for magic preparation is quite short.
Seeing this situation, Leerta became even more cautious. He was also a little nervous about Kate's unknown magical attack. For unknown reasons, he decided to stop quietly.
It came at the right time, and now Leerta has seen that Kate is still a knight in essence, and the attack method used is still a direct weapon confrontation. In this way, at least you don't have to worry about the opponent using a large weapon when fighting an ordinary magician.
Explosive attack magic or large-area destructive wind and water magic are unnecessary worries.
After Kate was ready, he immediately launched an attack. As his body moved, dozens of figures rushed towards Leerta. This auxiliary magic attack was completely thought up by Kate himself, but with the Holy Knight,
In Pastin's duel, this tactic has never been of much use, because generally when reaching the level of a paladin, the knight must have mastered the use of fighting spirit. This magical power of all-round attack and defense allows multiple attacks and attacks.
The unpredictable feints have become a useless showpiece. And my own attack method combined with water illusion magic is just a feint attack that has been extended to the extreme through magic. I originally created this form of attack, but
After the complete defeat in the duel with Pastin, there was a period of time when he was so frustrated that he wanted to give up this attack method. However, Master Pastin once told himself at that time that this attack method was not useless, but it was
This kind of attack is not very useful for people above the Paladin. The most important thing in the battle between the two sides is to use different countermeasures against different enemies. Mastering as many attack methods as possible is the most powerful weapon for a good knight. Therefore, Pastin
The adults have always encouraged themselves to complete this form of attack that combines magic and martial arts. Now is the time to show the results of your efforts.
With Kate's attacks like a tidal wave, Leerta was really in a hurry. He was completely unable to distinguish which was a phantom and which was a real and fatal attack. This is different from those that use visual illusions through fast-moving weapons.
The virtual shadows and afterimages formed by water magic are phantoms formed by refraction of light. To the eyes, these phantoms are completely consistent. They are all exactly the same as the real images. It takes a long time to distinguish the true from the false.
It can be done, not to mention that since they are not phantoms generated by fast movement, there is no sound of weapons breaking through the wind in these attacks. Therefore, even if you want to use "listening to the sound of the wind" to find out the real location of the opponent
None of them could do it. Regarding the latter point, Leerta was quite skeptical. This was also a special magical effect. The terrifying and difficult opponent isolated the sound through some magical magic.
The helpless Leerta could only use the effect of his fast sword. No matter whether it was a real or illusory attack, he tried to block it as much as possible. Of course, this was at the expense of huge physical effort. This form of defense was basically
It won't last long.
The people around him obviously saw this, and the old man standing in the audience was even more worried, but he was also powerless against the exciting duel that was going on on the stage. If he were standing on the stage, except for
He also had no other good way to use his fighting spirit to cut hard.
Another person who was watching all this nervously was Duke Haguero. He had a deeper view of this duel. He intuitively felt that although Kate's strength was not enough to threaten him, but...
The attack method that Kate has mastered that combines magic and martial arts, once applied to war, will definitely change the face of war. It was the Kingdom of Kaoqi that originally invented the perfect combination of heavy armored infantry and earth magicians.
This made an originally useless military unit suddenly dominate the world's military history for a century. But now, Kate's seemingly immature and immature magical attack methods are once used on a larger stage.
above, then its power will be increased thousands of times. Hagrid really can't imagine the same swordsman army led by a wind magician with the same flexible dodge ability and fast movement ability as the "Shadow of Moon Void"
, or what a terrifying situation it would be to fight a heavy cavalry unit controlled by a water magician mixed with a large number of phantoms.
Haguero will never forget the definitions of strong and weak given to people in the textbook of history. Perhaps some "strong" that were arrogant in the eyes of most people at that time were in the same category as some "weak" who were so inconspicuous.
During the confrontation, they were unexpectedly vulnerable. The sudden weakening of the heavy armored infantry back then illustrates this point. Duke Haguero does not want to become "powerful" in that way. However,
Facing Kate, his uneasiness became more and more serious. At this time, he suddenly thought of something. Is there any deviation between him and the important target figures originally set by Somilet? Maybe, these people are not as good as others.
Although expected to be important, on the contrary, those little-known little characters who stay around important targets are likely to be important figures who will change history in the future. Thinking of this, two names were added to Haguero's list─Enlai.
Co and Kate. He was even considering whether it was necessary to add the other two trial students.
※※※
But the most important thing at the moment is not these. Although Haguero is not on harmony with Leerta and his father, and can even be said to be completely hostile, he definitely does not want Leerta to lose this competition. No matter what, Leerta
Erta is a citizen of the Kingdom of Kaoqi, and Kate is an envoy of the Kingdom of Sophie. Moreover, as the first among the backward knights of the Kingdom of Kaoqi, Erta is quite eye-catching in the army. If he
Losing will be a heavy blow to the new generation of knights in the entire Kaoqi Kingdom. At this time when morale is most needed to be boosted, it is absolutely the most unacceptable for such a thing to happen. What's more, today is the Kaoqi Kingdom.
Even one of the most sacred days in the world, and this is the most sacred place in the Kingdom of Kaoqi-the altar of victory. If on this sacred day at this sacred place, the most outstanding knight of the younger generation of the Kingdom of Kaoqi loses
It was given to the magic apprentices of the Sophie Kingdom, which was a fatal blow to the national prestige of the entire Kaoqi Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Hagrid once again focused his attention on the stage. This time, he really tried his best. His eyes never missed a move, and his brain never stopped running rapidly. After all, the difference in strength is Something that was obvious, a perfect attack that had no flaws in the eyes of others, finally appeared in front of Hagrid. A proud smile appeared on Hagrid's face.
And all of this fell into the eyes of Joe, who was secretly observing Hagrid carefully. Joe once again revised his evaluation of Hagrid. Originally, in Joe's eyes, Hagrid had to be very serious in order to be able to deal with him. opponent. And now Joe felt that he had to work hard to defeat this Haguero. Thinking of this, he had an even more headache. And the idea of using Enleco to perform a beauty trap always seemed like an endless battle. Like a rat, things keep popping up in my head.
Enleco, who was standing in the distance, only felt the wind whistling and the bone-chilling coldness, as if he had suddenly returned to the demon world, and as if he had been cursed by an evil wizard. Not to mention how uncomfortable he was.
At this time, I heard Haguero say in a deep and solemn tone: "All phantoms can be regarded as illusory water bubbles. A little drizzle cannot completely wash away the water bubbles, but when the rainwater gathers into a river, it has infinite power. Even if the water bubbles cannot be washed away, Washing them all away can also drive the bubbles to go in the direction you want them to go. However, the bubbles cannot survive in the rotating rapids. Use water to make water, make the best use of the situation, and then everything will fall into place."
These words were clearly and completely transmitted to the ears of the two people in the fierce battle. That Leerta was worthy of being the most powerful knight of the new generation in the Kingdom of Kaoqi. He immediately understood the meaning of Hegeero's words, even though He criticized the character of Haguero, a radical who represented the foreign vassal forces and a famous playboy pervert. But for his attainments in swordsmanship, Relta greatly admired him. The words he said pointed out the direction for Leerta. I saw that he connected the swords that were originally used to block Kate's attack to form a continuous, reciprocating, and repeated, relying on countless arcs to form a flying scroll. The power of the sword flows like a river...
Kate had a premonition that the situation was not good when she heard Hegeero's reminder from the side. However, as a subject of the Kingdom of Sophie, he was really not used to the Kaoqi people's poetic speech that was full of insinuations. Method. Therefore, although he also heard what Hegeero said, he did not understand it. It was not until Leerta changed his sword posture that Kate finally understood what those meaningless words just meant. , but it was already too late. Leerta's sword power had already joined together and quickly turned into a series of continuous whirlpool-like offensives rolling towards him. The offensive and defensive momentum immediately changed. Originally, Leerta had to consume a lot of energy. To counter his own attack, and now, due to forming a circle connected end to end, Leerta does not need to provide too much physical strength to maintain this slow but quite effective absolute defensive offensive, and in order to resist it This slowly advancing defensive offensive requires a huge amount of effort.
Everyone in the audience saw this change in offensive and defensive patterns. The Kaoqi people were all very happy, while the three trial students were worried about their companions.
Enleco was really worried when he saw Kate retreating step by step. He really hoped that he had the ability of Haguero. If he could give instructions to people on the stage with just a few words like Haguero, How great would it be if a person wins?
Thinking of this, Enleco calmed down, because he realized that anxiety would only blind his eyes. If he wanted to help Kate on the stage, he must first stay calm. Now he has an advantage over Kate on the stage. Then It means that when you are not in a battle, you can have the time and opportunity to calmly consider the overall situation, calmly analyze the pros and cons of the enemy and ourselves, and make objective and rational judgments. This is something that Kate, who is fighting hard on the field, cannot do.
Having made up his mind, Enleco calmed down and calmly watched the thrilling and fierce battle on the field. To be honest, Enleco did not have the strength of Haguero. He was unable to deal with most of everything on the field. Understand. However, Enleco still forced himself to continue reading. He hoped to see even a little bit of something that would be helpful to Kate.
Enleco watched and thought deeply, with a solemn and steady expression on his face, and a deep and sharp gaze in his eyes, all of which made him seem to be two completely different people from the original.
Enleco didn't know that while he was paying attention to the people on the stage, the people next to him were also looking at him. First, His Majesty the Emperor noticed this change, and then the great wizard Kobe Leo also noticed it. Perhaps it was because Prime Minister Somyret had been secretly watching the reaction of the emperor and Kobe Leo, so he was the third person to see all this. Under his reminder, Duke Hegeello also paid attention to this. This strange change may be because some sensitive people noticed the unusual changes in the atmosphere. More and more people stopped shouting and turned to look at Enleco. For a while, the noisy spectators were all calm. After coming down, their attention focused on the young forbidden curse mage of Sophie Kingdom. People wanted to see what kind of abilities this little mage who was so valued by the great mage Kobe Leo had. What kind of miracles can be created.
Enleco, who was observing and thinking quietly, didn't notice the movements of the people around him at all. He was just trying to capture the lightning-fast movements of the two people on the stage. It took him quite a lot of effort to do this alone. energy, let alone being able to analyze useful information and find solutions from it. However, Enleco did not give up. He still looked hard and looked at the two people on the stage who were rapidly attacking and defending. personal.
On the stage, Kate's situation is getting more and more difficult. And Relta has found a way to fight against Kate. This method was only realized after being reminded by Duke Haguero. This method is to never pay attention to Kate. The ever-changing and completely novel attack methods. In the final analysis, Kate's attack forms are still inseparable from the essence of ordinary sword attacks. As long as you follow the most fundamental "Tao" of martial arts as you usually do when facing the enemy, any form of attack is the same. It’s the same. None of them can escape the scope guided by “Tao”.
Kate can also see this, but unlike the martial arts theory of the Kaoqi Kingdom, the swordsmanship education he received calls this - in line with the laws of nature. In Kate's eyes, Leerta is a person who has fully mastered the true meaning of swordsmanship in line with the laws of nature. Excellent knights, this is the gap in strength. What's more, the magic weapon attack method that I have just fumbled and practiced on my own has not even established a basic offensive and defensive system. There is not even a systematic magic weapon theory, let alone the theory. It is a deep-seated thing that is basically abstracted and conforms to the laws of nature. As soon as she thinks of this, Kate feels extremely desperate.
Enleco also noticed this. He had heard Kate mention the highest pursuit of martial arts as a knight before--constantly pursuing a higher level of martial arts that conforms to the laws of nature. This pursuit is absolutely endless. .And it is obvious that the opponent appearing in front of Kate is already a knight who has initially come into contact with martial arts that conforms to the laws of nature. If you consider this aspect, Kate has absolutely no hope of victory.
However, suddenly, an idea popped into Enleco's mind. Can victory really be achieved only by seeking a higher level of martial arts that conforms to the laws of nature? Since he has never received a systematic knightly education, Enleco He had doubted this issue before, because, in his view, everything in nature, in addition to the natural laws it follows, also has its own unique and distinctive characteristics. This uniqueness has created the colorful world today. world. In a sense, this is also a universal law in nature.
What's more, he thought of his teacher Chris, this genius and crazy woman. No one would think that she conformed to the laws of nature. Even she herself never considered any laws of nature. She only focused on theory and theory. As a result, I only focused on the process, but never pursued the unpredictable laws of nature.
※※※
Think back to the thrilling and fierce magic battle that Chris had with Old Wolf. Old Wolf was born with the ability to use magic, but no one taught him how to learn magic and fight. This guy should be considered to have mastered the laws of nature. Although he is the ultimate master of martial arts, he is also at a loss against Chris's simple yet changeable magic attacks formed through different combinations. Kate, who was trained by Chris, also has changeable attack methods. However, Kate, who has been educated as a knight for a long time, is always accustomed to following a fixed pattern, following certain rules, and carrying out attacks corresponding to the characteristics of different opponents. Moreover, all of Kate's attacks are always aimed at directly attacking the opponent. The use of magic is diverse, and effects can not only be achieved through direct attacks. .
Wanting to understand this, Enleco quickly analyzed the current situation in his mind, hoping to find a way to help Kate. Sure enough, when people have no clue, no matter what they look at, they are confused. Once , found a clue, and then more and more clues appeared in front of his eyes. When more and more clues gathered, finally all the clues were connected together one after another, like a string of crystal clear stars. The magical necklace radiates colorful light and hangs before his eyes, pointing the right direction to himself who has lost his way in the darkness.
Enleco only felt his eyes light up, and a smile appeared at the corner of his tightly closed mouth. This look made Enleco, who had been greatly overestimated by the nobles because of the introduction of the great wizard Kobe Leo, become more and more excited. Adding a wise and mysterious halo, this impression was even deeply engraved in the minds of Haguero and Someret. In their minds, Enleco surpassed Joe and became the number one in their eyes. Danger target number one.
Just listen to Enleco saying loudly: "Although everything in this world exists in accordance with the laws of nature, these laws alone cannot make up this diverse world. In addition to this universal law, , and their respective characteristics, distinctive characteristics. It is this characteristic that makes up this world."
When the nobles around heard what Enleco said, most of them were simply baffled. What does the fierce battle on the same stage have to do with it? But some others heard the hidden connotation in the words, and These people are the most important and prominent figures in the Kingdom of Kaoqi. Although everyone's understanding of this is still somewhat different, they have already guessed what Enleco wants to say next.
Sure enough, Enleco continued: "Pursuing martial arts that conforms to the laws of nature, pursuing the essence of power, and discovering the roots of power is indeed a way to improve one's own strength. However, mastering the various forms of expression of power and flexibly using the knowledge gained from it The unique properties of various powers are also a way to improve power. The two are mutually reinforcing, and they are also the truth that will always exist in this world. Think about it, what Teacher Chris and Teacher Fanduosi have given us Teach, think about their different uses of power. Magic and martial arts are also a type of power, but magic is not martial arts. The opposite is also true. The combination of magic and martial arts does not mean that magic is used as a single form of attack. , Similarly, magic is not a single auxiliary attack method. Magic is a kind of power, and martial arts is also a kind of power. Direct attack and auxiliary attack are all forms of its specific operation. There is no need to forcefully pursue whether it conforms to the laws of nature, or There is no need to find the source of this power. As long as it is used properly and its unique characteristics are shown, it is the correct mastery of power."
After saying this, Enleco stared at the stage anxiously. He didn't know if Kate heard what he said, and he didn't know whether Kate, who was in the fierce battle, understood the meaning of his words. He didn't know whether these words had any impact on Kate. Helpful. In the end, Enleco didn't even know whether his understanding was correct (he wasn't quite sure yet).
Time passed little by little, and the situation of the fierce battle on the stage still did not change. It seemed that what Enleco said was not of much help to Kate, but suddenly, the situation changed. As a fast and abnormal sound slipped out In an arc, Kate, who was originally tightly entangled, suddenly escaped from Leerta's whirlpool-like encirclement. Then a wind blade appeared out of thin air. Kate finally used a single magic attack.
Leerta is not too worried about this kind of wind blade. As a high-ranking knight, he is not worried about this kind of basic wind magic. There are too many ways to deal with this kind of magic, whether it is using "force" You can make a forced breakthrough or dodge by moving quickly.
Thinking of this, Leerta decided to break through directly. In this way, he could at least shorten the distance between him and Kate. He didn't want to keep a certain distance between the same magicians. This was simply too detrimental to him.
However, Kate's next actions were far beyond Leerta's expectations. After generating the wind blade, Kate did not launch the wind blade in his hand. Instead, he kept the condensed wind blade and rushed towards him. Relta, who was not thinking too slowly, suddenly realized that Kate was different from ordinary magicians. He could fight against him while maintaining a state of using magic. If he fought against Kate like this In close combat, he doesn't know when the wind blade in his hand will be launched towards him. At almost zero distance, trying to block the attack of the wind blade is not something he can do now, but Retreating and dodging is also not a good option, as it simply makes you a living target for your opponent.
At this time, Leerta was in a dilemma, but the fierce battle did not allow him to hesitate at all. The helpless knight finally decided to use the skills he had not yet fully mastered to resist Kate's attack. He saw that he used all his body parts to resist Kate's attack. "Power" is concentrated on the sword held tightly in his hand. The sword body is slightly tilted forward, and the tip of the sword touches the ground.
Kate also stopped when he saw this posture of Leerta. As a knight, he was familiar with this look. It was a knight who had mastered the use of fighting spirit, gathering fighting spirit before sending out sword energy. The posture of Leerta is very similar to the magical sword skill called "Vacuum Slash" in the Kingdom of Kaoqi. Kate once heard her father talk about it, but no one in the Kingdom of Sophie He knows how to use it. His father said that this kind of sword skill can produce a sword as powerful as a wind blade. Kate has always hoped to have the opportunity to see it. Along the way, he also asked familiar holy knights for advice, but this advanced skill can only be used. Those Holy Knights can master it. There are definitely no more than three Holy Knights who have the ability to use "Vacuum Slash", and the three of them are important figures in the Holy Knights with noble status and prominent status. I didn't expect that they could be able to use it here today. How could Kate not be overjoyed to meet a knight who could use this magical skill that she had long admired?
On the opposite side, Leerta saw that his opponent was not eager to attack, but was patiently waiting for him to gather enough "power" with excitement on his face. He was quite surprised by this. He asked in confusion: "What did you just do? Why not attack?" .
Realta, who was fully expecting a satisfactory answer from his opponent, never expected to be met with an inexplicable rhetorical question: "Is the move you want to use "Vacuum Slash"?"
Relta nodded with confusion on her face, and Kate's next reply made the high-ranking knight almost fall over.
I heard Kate excitedly say: "That's great. I just wanted to try it. I asked a lot of people and they didn't know how to use it. I didn't expect you to use it. It's just great."
Relta couldn't laugh or cry about this. He didn't know whether he should regard this as appreciation? Or contempt? But from the inside, Relta had a slight liking for Kate. In his opinion, this immature knight magician had All the qualities a good knight should have.
※※※
However, Leerta was very worried about the confrontation that was forming in front of him. He could neither guarantee that his "vacuum cut" would not cause fatal damage to Kate, nor could he guarantee that he would be able to break Kate's wind blade technique. In the end, The worst case scenario is that both sides suffer.
Thinking of this, Leerta said: "I admire your performance, and you have been recognized by me. I think other people should have no doubt that you and your companions won the championship, so I suggest that we stop."
Relta never expected that this suggestion would be rejected by Kate, and what made him stunned was that Kate's reason was quite simple - he wanted to see what "vacuum slash" was like.
However, Kate's suggestion made Relta feel that she could consider accepting it. Kate said: "Since the two of us have accumulated enough strength, let's let the wind blade collide with the "vacuum cut" and see what the result is. "
Relta thought for a long time and nodded in agreement.
The two people agreed, and each retreated to the edge of the altar, adjusting the wind blade and sword energy to completely coincide with each other. The two waited for the other party to send a prepared message.
Everyone in the audience stretched their necks and watched with relish. Although there was no longer the tense atmosphere of the fierce battle just now, it was obviously more interesting now. The nobles also wanted to see the sword energy against the wind. Which one is stronger?
With a loud shout, while Leerta swung the sword vigorously, Kate also released the wind blade in her hand.
With the sharp sound of breaking through the air, the wind in the air fluctuated violently. Two invisible and transparent blades made of dense and compressed air violently impacted and collided with real guns in mid-air. The collision of real swords was completely different. The two invisible blades were shattered into pieces at once, turning into countless wind blades that wreaked havoc in this area that was not small but not wide either.
Leerta on the stage is now very regretful. How could he agree to Kate's desperate request just now? How could he have thought that the collision of wind blades and sword energy would cause the current situation. The fragments of wind flying everywhere were far away. It is much more difficult to deal with than Kate's attack just now. Not only are these tiny wind blades too numerous to count, but they also shoot in irregular directions. What's even more annoying is that since Kate launches the wind blades far away, It was much faster than the "vacuum slash" that I could send out, so the center of the collision was towards my side. Being on the edge of this crazy and sharp storm, I suffered a lot. I don't know how many wounds were added to my body. , Fortunately, this less powerful wind blade did not cause fatal damage, but it would still be unpleasant if it was hit a few times. If it weren't for the fact that I was already quite proficient in using "power" for defense. , I'm afraid it has become a plate of sashimi now.
Kate on the opposite side was also feeling uncomfortable. He had more wounds than Leerta. If the water magic barrier hadn't been opened in time, he might not be able to get up now. But Kate who stayed inside the barrier was better than Leerta. Relta was much more comfortable. Moreover, he was no longer threatened, but he watched with great interest Relta's almost perfect defense through the defense shield. Kate had to admit that as a knight, Relta was more powerful than herself. Much stronger.
Through Relta's efforts, the wind fragments flying in the sky were completely eliminated. But the throbbing muscles and painful wounds all over his body also told him how serious the disaster was. What's more, The culprit in front of him was actually so comfortable that he stayed in the magic defense formation almost unscathed, which made Leerta feel that his lungs were about to explode. If it weren't for the fact that he was so tired that he didn't even want to move, he would have rushed up to him and hit him hard. Beat this guy up.
Everyone in the audience was also very satisfied with the ending. Looking at Relta who was glaring at Kate with an angry look, everyone couldn't help but think about how a very serious knight showdown ended in such a ridiculous ending. smile.
I don’t know who started it, but bursts of crisp and loud applause sounded from the surrounding audience. The applause became more and more loud, and finally it became one. Almost everyone was applauding. His Majesty Emperor Horkels III, the Great The magician Kobe Leo, the chief priest Meron, the leader of the Holy Knights, and even people like Prime Minister Somylet and Duke Kobe Leo were all there applauding. Although, the expressions on everyone's faces They are all different, but they are definitely the same for this competition. This is indeed a high-level competition.
After the noisy applause gradually calmed down, His Majesty the Emperor announced: "Today's memorial ceremony is the most special and exciting one in the past. Today, we not only saw a wonderful performance, but also a completely unique one." The contest, this contest is definitely qualified to go down in history, because this contest is the first contest between knights and magic knights in history. Today, the new power generated by the combination of magic and martial arts is shown to us for the first time. Everyone is a witness to history."
Having said this, His Majesty the Emperor turned around and personally picked up the legendary sword used by the ancient hero Xin Luoan from the hands of the guards standing next to him. His Majesty Horcols III walked away holding the sword in his own hands. Go up to the altar, come to Kate, and solemnly place the sword in Kate's hand.
Kate, who was deeply attracted by the Excalibur, had already forgotten everything. She neither saluted His Majesty the Emperor nor showed respect to the legendary Excalibur according to the usual etiquette. Instead, she stared blankly at the sword in her hand. The divine sword was in trance, his eyes were filled with light of excitement and joy, and his stiff hands were trembling slightly.
Seeing Kate's expression of overwhelming joy, the nobles of the Kaoqi Kingdom did not express dissatisfaction with Kate's rudeness. After all, this kind of extreme joy is far more important than etiquette to show respect for the sword. It can better express the sword holder's reverence for this divine sword, its ancient owner, and that hero.
Jerry in the audience could not wait to rush to a guard and snatched the magic bow held in the guard's hand. Of course, Jerry did not forget to add some elegant etiquette in time.
Bertina also came to her senses at this time. She was faced with the situation where there were only three artifacts, but now the sword and bow had already been in the hands of others. The only woman among the trial students had to choose the one that had not fallen into the hands of En. The magic staff in Leko's hand. Bertina took the magic staff from the guard very politely. Bertina, who grew up in a clergy family, held the magic staff used by Saint Lucia. It was really so It has a divine smell.
As for Enleco, from the beginning, he never thought about competing with his companions. After all, he contributed the least in the entire performance. Just because of this, he was not qualified to wear a sacred weapon. What's more, the one who considered himself the master The divine bow must not be touched. Every time you touch it, the divine bow will emit light. According to Duke Hagriro, this is the phenomenon of the artifact recognizing its owner. This situation can only occur when you can freely control the room. It will only be eliminated when the artifact reaches its peak. But Enleco secretly estimated that he still has to work hard to reach that point!
The three trial students slowly walked up to the altar holding sacred weapons in their hands. They will receive the blessings of everyone present. This has always been the last activity of the entire memorial ceremony.
