Although the opening game ended with a humiliating defeat, our opponents didn't seem too frustrated. It seemed that they had long been accustomed to the weak combat effectiveness of the Shadow Disciple and had no regard for her record from the beginning. Expectantly - of course, in fact this idea is also very wise - after calmly accepting the defeat in the first game, they quickly sent out the next player.
The second person to come on stage is the vampire Fallen Knight who is only at level 49 - similar to the Shadow Disciple, the Fallen Knight is the only specialty profession in the post-apocalyptic empire that is transformed from a warrior to another profession, similar to the Paladins of the Falvi Continent. relatively. Compared with the Paladins, the Fallen Knights do not have many restoration spells blessed by the Supreme God Darimus, nor do they have so many magic skills that enhance their own defense effects. However, they are blessed by the goddess of darkness and death, Teffry Millans. Their cold and sharp war blades can allow them to greatly increase their attack power in a short period of time and cause various unfavorable negative states to their opponents when attacking. In addition, as an auxiliary attack method, the Fallen Knight also masters a series of shadow magic for long-range attacks, which can meet various combat needs.
The name of this vampire fallen knight is "I Love Sunbathing". Such a tough and strange name can't help but make me look at him with surprise - imagine if you see a bloodless, white and fat man on the street, always holding two small eyes. The little vampire baby with tiger teeth exposed outside its lips has words on its head that read: "I like to rinse my mouth with garlic juice," "I like to wash my butt with holy water," or "I like to poke myself with sharpened oak sticks." "Heart Play" and other appalling names, I believe your reaction will be the same as mine.
Although he is the lowest level among everyone present, the excellent equipment makes up for the weaknesses of this young vampire fallen knight to a certain extent: he wears a piece of equipment that can increase defense by more than 360 points and 220 points by 220 points. The "Shadow Dragon Bone Breastplate" with more than ten points of vitality; the fiery red "Guardian of the Night" helmet on the head can increase the defense of the 126th and the magic power of the 110th; the The luxurious cloak called "Embrace of the Moon Goddess" can not only increase defense by more than 80 points, but also emit light at night or in dark caves, increasing the range of sight; and the most eye-catching thing is The "Shadowfang's Two-Handed Great Sword" in his hand was a heavy weapon that was as heavy as a long-handled battle ax. It was made of unknown metal. The whole body showed a thick, dull and uniform black color, as if it were a heavy weapon. It seemed as if all the surrounding light had been absorbed. Even the sharpest edge did not reveal a trace of luster, but it exuded a sharp aura. It made people feel that the dim black metal was exuding a kind of energy that could not be seen by the naked eye. The sharp brilliance that can be seen, the invisible brilliance is so shining that it is impossible to face it.
A crisp bell rang, announcing the start of the second battle. Before the bell rang, I loved to bask in the sun, dragging the dark black two-handed giant sword with double blades and serrations diagonally with both hands, and strode towards Xiange Yayi. The dim sword edge rubbed against the stone slabs of the arena, making a disturbing noise all the way, as if a monster was grinding its teeth and couldn't wait to bite the enemy's flesh - it seemed that he He did not intend to use his half-baked shadow magic in this battle, but put all his winning chips on the melee advantage of a heavily armored warrior.
"Now Xian Ge Yayi is going to be in big trouble!" Looking at the indomitable and decisive momentum of the Vampire Fallen Knight, I couldn't help but shake my head and sighed softly. I was very worried about the outcome of this battle with our elven companions. .
"Not necessarily" Perhaps my negative emotions aroused strong resentment from some people. Miss Feiyin glanced at me coldly with raised eyebrows and said questioningly, "Xiao Xianzi's last scene The consumption is not too great, and this opponent is three levels lower than him, so it is very possible to win two games in a row."
I spread my hands and shrugged my shoulders, and wisely gave up arguing with our president. I just pouted towards the ring, gesturing for her to verify our rights and wrongs with her own eyes.
As we know, every fallen knight can cast some crude shadow magic, such as the level 30 spell "Shadow Blade". Although this is just a low-level attack spell that can only cause less than 100 points of damage to the opponent at most, it is an instant spell that does not require any casting time. Therefore, this spell is also used by almost all fallen knights in battle. The first choice skill to seize the opportunity and kill the opponent first. Among all the fallen knights I have seen, there is no one who does not use this magic as the opening skill of the battle. For the vast majority of fallen knights, using a "Shadow Blade" to kick off the battle is no longer even a tactic - it is more like a tradition, a habit, and can even be called a tactic. It is a kind of old-fashioned and immutable fixation.?Formula.
Not only that, the Fallen Knights also have many long-range attack spells such as "Shadowfang Assault" and "Shadow Sword". The power of these magics may not be as lethal as when they are in close combat, but when they are close to the opponent, , before they go all out to fight, they are an important factor in weakening the enemy first and gaining advantages for themselves - even if these advantages are not so obvious, in the battle of life and death, even if it is only a very small The slightest advantage could mean the difference between life and death for two brave souls.
The left hand hides the brilliance of magic, while the right hand holds the sharpness of a warrior. In the shadow of cunning magic, he advances step by step towards the enemy, but in the end, he will win the name of the winner with his hearty fighting¡ª¡ª This is the battle that belongs to the fallen knight, walking between insidiousness and courage, covering a fiery fighting soul with a black magic cloud, and sticking to the path of knighthood that belongs only to him with the fallen soul of a foreign race.
But now, the young vampire named "I Love Sunbathing" in the ring has gone against the combat rules usually followed by fallen knights: he completely gave up the convenience of long-range attack magic and allowed the oncoming sharp arrows to tear him apart. He had no flesh and blood, but he refused to think of a hasty counterattack, and used his perseverance to pave a bloody road to kill his opponent. He doesn't behave like a fallen knight with both magic and martial arts skills and a well-established approach and retreat, but more like a pure melee professional. He is more like a resolute war warrior than a war warrior, and he is more like a heroic berserker than a berserker.
Standing in a hostile position, I can feel more clearly at this time that the reason why he did this was definitely not because he was stupid. On the contrary, what he did fully proved his sobriety and wisdom, or to put it further, the decisive decision of this fallen knight of the blood race showed his deep understanding of this five-on-five duel - he was among the ten people present. The lowest level, but this does not make him a weakling in the ring, because in my opinion, he is also perhaps the most visionary among the ten people present, which is enough to make up for the slight gap in his level and make him an active The key figure in this arena.
The Vampire Fallen Knight knew exactly what he was doing. He accurately measured his own strength and knew that he was at least 90% sure that he could defeat the marksman who had consumed nearly half an elf without any danger. However, such a record was already the limit of his ability. There was no way he could defeat him. After a fierce fight, He Xian Ge Ya Yi defeated the next opponent with scars all over his body - the gap in level and combat power could not be eliminated by just relying on courage or brains.
Faced with such a situation, he actually has two choices. The most common choice is: to defeat the opponent as the first goal, exert maximum combat power at all costs, defeat the enemy as quickly as possible, and save himself to the maximum extent. life to prepare for the next fierce battle that must be lost - this is also the choice that most people will make: kill the enemy and protect themselves. The never-ending mutual hunting between the Alliance and Empire warriors makes this simple and simple And the ideal fighting concept has penetrated into the hearts of almost every adventurer, and then turned into a fighter's instinct, penetrating into the blood of every hunter and prey.
However, this fallen knight named "I Love Sunbathing" does not do this. He gave up the skills that were more convenient for him, and at the expense of most of his health, he approached the enemy with all his strength, using the fastest speed to enter the hand-to-hand combat he was good at, converting every drop of magic into the greatest destructive power, trying to Use a more sinister and "frugal" way to feel your opponent. This tactic may greatly increase its life loss, but the benefit is also obvious - he can preserve his magic power to the maximum extent.
Between having more vitality and more abundant magic power, he chose the latter without hesitation. This was the wisest thing about this young vampire. He keenly discovered the huge difference between this five-on-five series of matches and the common one-on-one duels: in this arena, what we have to do is not just knock down a certain opponent in front of us. That's it, but to consume the opponent as much as possible. Even when there is no hope of winning, we must maximize the damage and create more favorable conditions for teammates who will play later.
For I love to bask in the sun, without the support of magic power, no matter how much vitality he saves, it can only support him for a moment longer in front of the next opponent. The lethality that magic attack skills can produce is simply ordinary. The attack is simply incomparable. Instead of doing this, it is better to risk your life and give it a try in the next battle, which will cause more losses to the opponent. This should be the decision of this fallen knight of the blood clan at this time.
Two loud arrows tore open the lower abdomen of the Vampire Fallen Knight. A large amount of blood splashed onto the ground, quickly seeping into the gaps in the stone slabs on the arena, dyeing the ground a dark red.
I love to bask in the sun without any hesitation. Every time he takes a step, the metalThe boots will make a decisive clang sound as they step hard on the ground. These decisive sonorous sounds are connected in a string, like an indomitable military front, pointing straight ahead to the elegant meaning of Xian Ge.
Facing the menacing opponent, Xian Ge Yayi didn't seem to be ready to give in - in fact, although this arena looks very wide, once you start to retreat, you will soon be forced into a dead corner. This has changed from how easy it was just now. The defeated shadow believer was proved - he took out another feather arrow from the quiver on his back, placed it lightly on the bowstring, and then shot it out steadily, hitting the opponent's thigh.
With three arrows and more than 500 life points, I love to bask in the sun and approach the position about five steps away from Xian Ge Yayi at such a high cost. This distance is close enough, so close that with just a wave of the hand, the Shadowfang giant sword can be chopped down on the opponent's head, delivering a vicious blow to the opponent.
Three arrows, this seems to be a limit. At such a distance, even a skilled archer could only shoot three arrows. After three arrows, the initiative in the battle will change hands, and the heavily armored melee warrior will have the opportunity to demonstrate his powerful force.
It was only then that Xian Ge Yayi seemed to feel some fear. He quickly turned around and retreated. As he retreated, he hurriedly drew out another feather arrow, preparing for the next attack.
However, the Vampire Fallen Knight will no longer give him a chance to shoot calmly! I love to bask in the sun, I took a step forward, swept my hands across, and the Shadow Fang giant sword immediately spun out a black shadow, and spread rapidly towards Xian Ge Yayi's back.
Everything seems to have been decided.
But, has everything been decided?
not yet!
Just when he was about to be swallowed up by the sharp black shadow, Xian Ge Yayi suddenly stopped - no, more than just stopped retreating, the elven archer was like a cunning and ferocious wild wolf, bowing his head quickly Back, he bent down and turned around, approaching the center of the black shadow. His movements were so fast that by the time I loved to bask in the sun, Xian Ge Yayi had already counterattacked in front of him. The distance between the two was so close that even an assassin holding a dagger would feel it. Somewhat oppressive.
I don¡¯t know when, the feather arrow in Xian Ge Yayi¡¯s hand was already attached to the bowstring. The bow was open, like a full moon, held in front of his chest. An arrow cluster shining with a stunning silver luster was pressed tightly against the chin of the fallen vampire knight.
I guess he has never seen an arrow cluster so clearly
In an instant, a brilliant brilliance suddenly bloomed from the airtight black shadow, like a meteor that cut across the entire sky, instantly illuminating the night shrouded in dark clouds.
Another sharp arrow left the bowstring and pierced the target made of flesh and blood fiercely. It was then covered with a layer of ferocious red light and flew straight into the sky.
At the moment when everyone thought he was at the end of his rope, Xian Ge Yayi shot his fourth arrow.
Almost at the same moment, two huge balls of blood sprayed all over the sky, and a red rain seemed to fall in the center of the ring. The two people immersed in the bloody rain screamed in pain at the same time and staggered back a few steps.
I believe that for most of the people present, this should be the first time in their lives that they saw a heavily armored knight being repelled by a frail shooter in hand-to-hand combat.
No other shooter can be as accustomed to fighting close to the opponent's chest as Xian Ge Yayi. Even a warrior or a rogue cannot adapt to this kind of fighting close to the opponent's chest like him. The gloomy experience of having to fight for his life from wolf-kissed cat claws time and time again due to his limited vision gave him a tough and almost numb calmness towards the approaching enemy, and the control of distance and speed in this kind of close combat He had a subtle sensitivity that was far superior to that of an ordinary warrior, which allowed him to tightly grasp the sudden appearance of a fighter jet, and he shot the impossible fourth arrow without a moment's notice.
This head-on arrow penetrated the lower jaw and cheek of the Vampire Fallen Knight, leaving a bloody wound on his face. More than 270 points of life were wiped out with the penetration of this arrow. The chain helmet made of fine iron was easily torn like a piece of tattered leather, and the broken iron ring made a "squeaking" noise, as if it was trembling from the extremely dangerous arrow just now.
At this time, I love to bask in the sun, showing admirable perseverance and determination. Even though he suffered an unexpected and violent counterattack, he did not hesitate at all, raising his huge two-handed sword and charging back. As he thrust forward with his sword, a dark purple demonic fire suddenly appeared, burning coldly on the sharp blade.
This "Punishing Flame" is just a small spell of level 15. Its only effect is to add a certain degree of fire damage to the fallen knight's weapon. But at this time, for this cold young vampire, this?? is the most affordable and practical spell.
"-167", "-213", "-159" A string of bright red numbers jumped out of Xiange Yayi's head as the black giant sword continued to be waved. In this unequal hand-to-hand battle, I Love Sunshine vividly displayed the cruelest side of my race. The black two-handed giant sword is like a hungry tongue, greedily sucking the blood from the opponent's body.
But at the same time, he is unswervingly implementing his firm fighting philosophy. Straight slashes, storm slashes, violent slashes, serial stabs He has always used these simple and direct attack techniques with low consumption, and will never waste a trace of magic power on those seemingly gorgeous and powerful skills that are not affordable. He truly managed to convert every bit of his magic power into maximum damage to his opponent.
"Ferociousness and calmness, these two seemingly contradictory qualities, seem to have been perfectly integrated into this fallen knight of the vampire family. It is difficult not to feel deeply unfortunate for his opponent.
¡°Our elven friends, on the other hand, seemed a little weak after experiencing their initial ruthlessness. Although he also made a commendable counterattack, his efforts were not enough to reverse the pattern of long-range attack professions destined to suffer in close combat, not to mention that from the beginning of this battle, his health points were lower than those of his opponents. Has nearly half the disadvantage. Within a few rounds, after struggling to shoot the last arrow, he was knocked down on the ring with a heavy chop by I Love Sunshine. After all, he was unable to extend his victory to the second round.
After our first defeat, we didn¡¯t give our opponents much time to celebrate. While I was still standing on the edge of the ring yelling at my teammates and showing off my hard-won victory, our second candidate was already slowly walking towards the ring. . He held a one-handed war hammer studded with sharp thorns in his left hand, and a small, shining dagger flipped deftly between the fingers of his right hand, drawing bright cuts. As his feet rose and fell heavily on the ground, the fat on his chest and abdomen trembled, causing waves of "flesh halo" to appear, making people worry about whether he had enough physical strength to climb the mountain. Get on this half-human-height arena. As soon as he stepped onto the ring, the originally very spacious arena suddenly seemed a little cramped. The eyes of everyone on the sidelines seemed to be attracted by a magical power, and they all immediately focused on him. body - to be precise, when this guy appears in your sight, it is really difficult to make room in your eyes to accommodate more things. I remember that an alchemist named Newton once proposed a novel theory, that is, the greater the weight of an object, the greater the attraction it generates. At this time, what is happening in front of us seems to be This proves the correctness of this conclusion.
Of course, it would not be anyone else who can instantly become the focus of the ring with such a shocking gesture. That's right, the half-orc shadow thief Changjiang, he is the next opponent that the vampire fallen knight needs to face in the ring.
