Chapter 257: Use the second sword you used against monsters against me?
Chapter 257: Use the second sword you used against monsters against me?
(Yesterday was a day off because Kronos was celebrating Children's Day. Today's update is complete.)
Unkindness - hostility - murderous intent!
The three emotions switched in a flash.
Faced with the opponent's fierce attack, Abes could only immediately mobilize his strength to resist.
This is definitely not a suitable place for fighting.
Located on Aunt Vanna's territory.
The priest's divine power helped him to reveal the weirdness of this area.
The frequent appearance of various phantoms also made Abes feel multiple pressures both mentally and in combat.
Moreover, when Abes set out, he was only planning to conduct a reconnaissance activity here. However, being dragged by a trap and attracted by a whirlpool would have been fine, but now he actually had to fight an enemy. This was something that Abes absolutely did not want to do to maintain order.
Quick victory!
Looking back at the scene, Abes gently took off the giant sword from his shoulder. The heavy sharp weapon was easily held in Abes' hand like a small wooden stick.
The enemy clearly had two swords on his shoulders, but he only pulled out one of the iron swords.
Abes's eyes became firm, with the giant sword in his hand, his figure was like a towering mountain, giving people an unshakable feeling.
The enemy in front of him was somewhat like the one Abes fought when he was a barbarian as his main profession. He was light and agile, with his feet slightly apart and his body slightly squatting, like a cheetah ready to pounce at any time.
The two looked at each other for a moment, the air was filled with tension, as if even time had slowed down.
Suddenly, the white-haired man in front of him took the lead in launching an attack.
His iron sword cut through the air, making a sharp sound of breaking wind, and pointed directly at Abes' chest.
When fighting against an enemy in full body armor, it is absolutely unwise to attack the chest, which is already well protected.
But Abes's eyes focused and he saw the door on the other side.
"It's a slashing sword, but the tip is sharpened - it's for thrusting attacks."
Generally speaking, when dealing with heavily armored enemies, the first tactic should be to remove the armor.
Shoulders, waist, neck.
Any gap is the first priority to be solved.
However, Abes's full body armor, which was assembled using runes and machinery instead of rivets, did not have these external problems at all.
Abes's real trouble lies in his own power consumption and the continuous oppression of his enemies.
Therefore, bombarding the heart and lungs, two important tissues, is actually the most direct and effective means.
So what if the breastplate is heavy?
Having no effect at all and having an effect but only a very weak one are two different things.
Since there is no other way to remove the armor, the opponent will choose to continuously attack the torso and chest.
First it's high frequency, then high frequency, and then high frequency again.
Abes's giant sword met the opponent's iron sword, and the two weapons met in the air, making a deafening sound of metal collision.
In order to use the giant sword, the strength required and the force it creates are extremely huge. Its power is enough to defeat ordinary people instantly, but the white-haired man in front of him is obviously not an ordinary opponent.
His iron sword used a clever angle to absorb most of the giant sword's impact. He quickly retreated, avoiding Abes's slash and then approached again.
While stepping on the giant sword, he quickly approached Abes.
Of course, in the same way, Abes would also move around to get out of the opponent's attack range and return to the protection range of the weapon.
The white-haired man's attack frequency was very high, and the iron sword kept attacking Abes in all directions like a poisonous snake.
However, after the initial period of discomfort, Abes has now begun to confidently rely on the solid protection of his full body armor.
The priest's proficiency in armor makes up for the barbarian's lack of proficiency in armor.
Without having to spend time thinking about how to dodge, Abes can use the rich "imprints" and combat experience left by the two gods in his consciousness space to launch an absolutely powerful and fatal attack.
With the giant sword in his hand, Abes was like a moving fortress, while the white-haired man was like a nimble cheetah, constantly looking for opportunities to break through.
A stalemate is usually disadvantageous to both parties.
But for some reason, the white-haired man in front of him didn't seem to have consumed much energy.
"It's really not simple." Abes thought to himself.
At the same time, in Abes's mind, he also began to make the final "portrait" of this "enemy".
The opponent is agile and experienced in combat, and is obviously a tough opponent.
Extraordinary, and not weak.
Abes originally wanted to define the other party as an adventurer as well, but since he mentioned the hatred of hundreds of people, it is unlikely that he is an adventurer.
After all, the role of adventurers in the small kingdom of Wommza is too close to that of lowly mercenaries who fight monsters.
A "mercenary" who takes commissions as he travels is unlikely to have any long-term and extensive social interactions, so where would he get a hundred people to care about from?
Even if you really have a hundred people you care about, it is unlikely that all of them will encounter unexpected events.
Even if all these one hundred people met with misfortune, under normal circumstances, all the hatred they felt could not be easily summarized by the phrase "hatred of one hundred people."
After continuing to think, Abes could easily come to a conclusion.
He, like himself, is a "family man", the kind of person who has fixed forces, organizations, families, and homes to protect.
Only in this situation could hundreds of people who you care about meet with misfortune in an instant due to a common reason.
It's just a pity that I entrusted my trust to the wrong person...
After using his divine power to see the scene clearly, Abes knew very well that no matter how mysterious Aunt Vanna was, she could not be a good person.
Anchoring his hopes and messages of revenge on such an evil guy who is not sure whether he is human or not, even if Abes is willing to be defeated by him, can he finally get what he wants?
No more delay!
Abes suddenly made up his mind.
This is to save myself and also to save the man in front of me.
"Come on, it's time for me, [Thousand Slashes], to come and save you!"
He roared suddenly, and the huge sword rushed towards the white-haired man with incredible force.
There was still no infusion of divine power, but this time, Abes actually gave up imitating Sass's fighting methods and gave up the "divine experience" that was imprinted in his own consciousness space?
What is he going to do?
If you want victory, then it's fine not to use the priest's divine power, but why do you have to give up even your fighting style?
----------
Fight, fight, fight!
Even though he changed his fighting style, Abes's strength did not decrease at all.
The fight between him and the white-haired man was still maintained at a high speed and strong attack, so that if either party hesitated for a moment, they might be killed, shattered,
The consciousness was transmitted powerfully, and even the energy could cause damage to the surrounding buildings and furniture.
After another hard fight, the two men retreated quickly, each keeping a distance of fifty to sixty feet between them.
After stretching to more than 120 feet, even a cat-man with acceleration would not be able to arrive in one go due to the agility of his race.
Longbows and shortbows will also be in a disadvantageous situation where they are difficult to hit.
This is what is called a safe distance.
And at a safe distance, the two can breathe and adjust.
No matter how powerful they are or how high their output frequency is, extraordinary people still need to rest.
During this short break, Abesi can do some exercises.
For example, you grab some things at random, which may look like bones, debris, or garbage to you; you don’t know what they look like to the other person, and then you laugh wantonly, “You come to help that old guy deal with the bully? I’m going to grab these things and leave right in front of you, can you stop me?”
Typical tactic of provoking anger.
And yet… it’s useful.
After being provoked several times, the man in front of her could no longer endure it.
"I now have an idea of your strength. Let me put an end to this meaningless battle."
"That's just what I want, let's end it right now."
After he finished speaking, even though Abes's face was hidden inside the helmet, the people on the opposite side could still sense the unprecedented solemn atmosphere.
The power restrained by the heavy armor seemed to be about to burst out here regardless of everything, defeating the enemy, killing the enemy, and destroying the enemy with the greatest power! !
The next moment, as if by teleportation, the distance between the two people, which had been stretched to the limit, was instantly closed.
Both of them could feel at the same time that victory or defeat would be decided within a minute.
As for any sword slash or sword dance, if the mental judgment lags behind by even a step, then defeat and death will await you!
Without reservation, the white-haired man felt that the powerful force was about to burst out of his hands uncontrollably.
However, every time you think you can achieve an ultimate victory, the opponent will use the same fast, strong and steady force to resist and counterattack.
In other words, all the killing power and the possibility of killing are neutralized.
In previous situations, after a fight reached this point, both men would step back, giving each of them a six-second break.
And now, since the white-haired man was the first to propose a decision on the winner, he naturally cannot stop.
This is because, if he stops, even if he is in a strong position, he will be completely destroyed by the party that is still persisting.
And just when he felt that his power was about to disappear, some "weakness" appeared at the right time.
----------
A slight weakening of strength, a clearly revealed tired posture, and the blade of the giant sword that should have been held firmly but was slightly tilted.
Right now, if he wants to defeat this heavily armored "bully" in front of him, he can only seize the present moment.
So the white-haired man reached his other hand behind his shoulder and pulled the second sword slightly out of the scabbard.
"fall!"
Like the Milky Way hanging in the sky, like a waterfall of stars.
The purple debris, together with the slightly longer sword behind him, drew a perfect arc in the air.
It’s actually a silver sword?
The purple debris looks somewhat like the so-called nightmare ashes.
Special materials plus special ingredients, this is a standard way to deal with certain special monsters.
It can produce an effect similar to a magic attack on monsters that are afraid of these things without the ability to cast spells, magic weapons or infused weapons.
This is to avoid the embarrassing situation where you perform a series of fierce operations only to find that the result is not resistance or immunity.
Although those special effects will not occur to Abes, who is a human, the actual damage from the slashing cannot be avoided.
only……
"Hey!" The laughter came from inside the steel can helmet.
"Inevitable? The final blow? That can only be judged when the two sides are evenly matched."
The power of Abes, which had been hidden for a long time, was finally fully released.
"Relaxation song."
The physical strength gap between the two people who originally seemed to be evenly matched was suddenly widened.
"After that……"
The bard's voice of creation was once again in Abes' hands.
Since it can provide support for the barbarian's half-sword battle, why can't it be activated when it is replaced by the priest's greatsword at this moment?
This time, the power of the infrasonic simulation that could paralyze the dragon and General Paddy for a long time was once again wrapped around the sword, firmly controlling the white-haired man in front of him.
After the control took effect and the gap in physical strength widened, the white-haired man who had been waiting to die with his hands hanging down, saw that the shining light followed the iron hand guard and touched his forehead, and then pierced into it like a steel needle.
"call……"
With a long sigh, Abes finally released his control and looked at the shoulder armor and chest armor.
There, the silver sword wrapped in purple debris left a clear scratch on Abes' armor.
----------
Evenly matched?
This was of course an illusion that Abes gave to the enemy. Since arriving at Carterburg, he had never used any means other than [Brand].
Just relying on his clumsy imitation of the gods' combat experience was enough to deal with the white-haired man in front of him.
To put it bluntly, the one who is equally powerful as the white-haired man in front of him is not Abes, but just a small ability accidentally acquired by the priest, one of the three powers of Abes.
If you liberate the divine power and use the priest's domain power, or if you find an opportunity to incorporate the power of the barbarian and the bard, then the enemy will be dead within twelve seconds.
However, Abes, who had already confirmed that the white-haired man was not Aunt Vanna's servant, would not allow himself to kill the other party without any reason.
He wants to save people!
The purpose of fighting is to delay time and think of ways to save the situation.
Soon, a plan was thought out.
First, Abes chose to give up using the power of "Brand" and gave up the fighting style of the God of Perfection, and instead used his own intuition and fighting style.
Because one's own power can be controlled.
Being able to control him would allow him to make crucial changes at crucial moments - showing weakness to the enemy.
After repeated provocations and deliberately showing weakness, the opponent really used the second sword and launched his most powerful attack.
When the sword move that was supposed to be aimed at the monster came towards a human like Abes, Abes knew that the man in front of him was no longer someone who could be defeated in a few words.
"Ha ha……"
"Hehehe, you're using the second sword of the team monster against me?"
Now that things have come to this, if we want to save him, we have to use some other means.
And this requires attention to the use of divine power.
The reason why the divine power was not integrated into the sword moves was because, if one wanted the other party to clear up misunderstandings with oneself, simply suppressing them with force would be useless.
Abes must let the other party see with his own eyes what the entire Shirai Tea House really looks like.
Therefore, the divine power of light belonging to Sass cannot be integrated into sword moves to cause damage, but should be used in more important places to help the opponent break the illusion in front of him.
"go with!"
At the last moment, facing the opponent's slash that was shining with purple arc light, Abes used the power of the light realm and shot it into the opponent's mind with his sword.
