Chapter Ninety-One: Battle Armor
Lear walked forward, and all the people behind Boris retreated, retreating two hundred meters away, Boris's whole body was wrapped in silver heavy armor, which was far thicker than the Western full-body armor that Lear had seen in his previous life, and it was simply inlaid with steel plates.
After Lear saw the heavy armor clearly, he showed a solemn look, Boris was not wearing ordinary heavy armor at all, but a priceless magic heavy armor. The entire piece of heavy armor is equivalent to a piece of magical equipment, with multiple additional spells that reduce weight and enhance defense, which is far more powerful than ordinary heavy armor.
Lear looked at the heavily armored man and said, "This piece of equipment is quite expensive, and if I'm not mistaken, you borrowed it from Grand Duke Mikhail." However, Steel's magic affinity is very low, and even if you have a magic array on your magic heavy armor, you can only reduce the weight by half at most. And no matter what, the heavy armor will reduce the flexibility, and you will definitely lose this battle!"
Boris laughed and said contemptuously in the more standard lingua franca: "The Hormans are always so arrogant, and the last one to say this about me has proved himself wrong with his life." Little one, you can always throw in the towel, I won't kill you. However, I will leave a little souvenir on your face to let others know that Corus is the land of swordsmen, not Homan!"
Lear shrugged his shoulders and said, "I think you've got a good armor set, and I'll keep it as a souvenir when the time comes." β
"I'm not interested in the tongue sword, but I'm very interested in the sword in your hand, and there is an intermediate sword washing technique sharp light, which is regarded as a trophy. You are so young, I'm afraid that it will not be a few days after becoming a swordsman, you attack first, and I will let you make three moves. Boris said arrogantly. Although he despised Lear as a swordsman, he was afraid of Lear as an earl, and before leaving, Pinkov had told him that he could win, but he must not kill.
Pinkov even prepared him a magic guide that could release the primary healing technique, just because he was afraid that he would accidentally kill Lear. The Homan royal family has always been short of protection, and if Lear dies here, the 17th and 19th legions of the empire will inevitably go to war without declaring war, and there is only one thing the Crumman royal family can do - find the unlucky ghost to negotiate the issue of land reparations.
Lear posed in a pistol pose, looked at the T-shaped gap in Boris's helmet, and said nothing.
Boris looked at him cautiously.
A minute passed, two minutes passed, and Boris finally said impatiently: "What are you doing! Why don't you attack?" β
Lear was surprised and said, "Don't you see? I'm dragging my time with you, your heavy armor is so heavy, the longer I stand, the more suitable I am." Alas, it seems that I have a high opinion of you, and it has been so long for you to ask me. β
"Little crumbs, I let you attack you first, don't blame me for being rude!" Boris said, his long sword bursting out with a red fire fighting aura and attacking Lear.
Boris was the fastest thrust as soon as he shot.
Lear unceremoniously condensed the same fire fighting spirit, swinging his sword horizontally towards Boris's longsword. Boris gave a look of disdain, continued to lunge and prepared his backmove.
However, as Lear slashed at the enemy's sword, a fist-sized ball of fire suddenly erupted from where the two swords met and exploded, shaking Boris's longsword openβan exquisite explosion slash that was as accurate as a high-level swordsman.
Boris's face changed suddenly, as if he had seen a ghost, and he saw Lear's longsword pierce the gap between his helmet.
"Damn!" the whole process was incredibly fast, Boris was completely defenseless, and he couldn't dodge the sting that was even more terrible than a poisonous snake in heavy armor. He could only activate his magic equipment, and a pale blue magic shield appeared from his body.
Lear's longsword hits the magic shield, but the magic shield ripples and blocks the sword.
"What a treacherous Horman!" said Boris, abandoning his original contempt and slashing at Lear with all his might.
Lear quickly retracted his sword and began to wander around Boris, who would wait for his magic shield to dissipate before attacking.
Boris pursued, but Lear was far more nimble than he was, and as long as Lear walked around him, he could only spin in place without accomplishing anything. This is also the reason why the swordsmen of Corus only wore armor with swords and did not dare to wear armor at other times, and the enemy wanted to escape, and the people in armor were helpless.
"Are you jogging with a sword? you coward!" said Boris impatiently.
Lear smiled and said: "I don't know who is shameless, the second move uses magic equipment, you are the most shameless and incompetent opponent I have ever seen! I have a question, what was written in your battle book at that time was a sword or magic equipment? You coward, the son of Pingkov, is a coward like the son of Pingkov! By the way, I heard that the son of Pinkov is the illegitimate son of Grand Duke Mikhail, does that Grand Duke have any other illegitimate children living in your house?"
Boris was furious, and his fighting spirit was agitated, and he rushed towards Lear, and the explosiveness was terrifying.
Lear was prepared, took half a step back, and immediately caught up with the opponent's momentum to use the counter-attack sword technique after the opponent's momentum weakened.
Boris is surprised to find that Lear is not fleeing, so he fights with all his heart and fights against Lear.
The two sides went back and forth, and the red sword of fighting spirit became the focus of the audience, and the people watching the battle exclaimed from time to time.
Afra stood on the rampart, clasped her hands together, pursed her lips and silently prayed for Lear.
"Mother, please bless Lear in heaven. You said that one day someone will really like me, including my shortcomings. Those people used to say they didn't care, but their eyes betrayed their true thoughts. Only Lear, only Lear really doesn't care about my stuttering, only he really thinks I speak nicely. If he dies, no one will ever say that my stuttering is a beautiful note, a trait rather than a flaw......"
Slowly, Boris realizes that something is wrong - once Lear has the upper hand, he will quickly retreat instead of attacking, and he finds Lear's killing intent weak, which is counterintuitive.
At this time, the magic shield had long since disappeared, and Boris asked in a deep voice: "Are you using me to practice swords instead of dueling?"
Lear said lightly: "I was discovered by you again, it seems that I am not good at disguise." I finally found an opponent of equal strength in the mountains, and accidentally broke it, who should I play with in the future?"
Boris was enraged by Lear's contemptuous attitude, and let out a low shout: "You will regret it!" After saying that, he activated the reserve power of the magic armor, and the heavy magic armor lost weight again, and the weight now had a very small effect on a swordsman.
Caught off guard, overwhelmed by Boris's stormy blows, Lear kept retreating,
However, after insisting on a dozen moves, Lear seemed to be at ease - Boris's shoulder, elbow and wrist joints were affected, causing his sword to produce a large number of attack dead ends, and the heavy armor at the waist and legs greatly slowed down his dodge and movement, which had nothing to do with weight and was an unavoidable defect of heavy armor.
Ten minutes later, Lear figured out what Boris was doing, and for him Boris was useless, so he prepared to end the fight.
Practicing in the Sword World for a long time and fighting opponents at the Sword Saint level for a long time allowed him to learn things that were difficult for ordinary swordsmen to learn, so he was confident that he could defeat opponents of the same level.
While he was guarding against Boris, he was thinking about how to fight next.
"I'm going to beat Boris, not drag him down, and only by completely suppressing Boris and showing a certain amount of strength can I avoid the trouble of constant complaints. However, I can only show limited strength, if I directly reveal all the magic guides, magic crossbows, and dimensional bags, it will indeed scare off Baron Boris and Baron Pypkov, but it will attract more evil wolves. I only need to defeat Boris, and if I can, I won't kill him, after all, the other party is a subordinate of Grand Duke Mikhail. β
"Boris was already on guard, and it was very difficult to attack the T-shaped gap in his helmet. And this heavy armor is like a steel plate, and with my current sword skills, I need to hit the same place many times in a row to break through. I don't have the Heavy Armor Buster Hammer on hand, so there's only one way - to attack from Boris's joints, where there are enough gaps. β
"I've now mastered his striking spots, and if I can strike my sword fast enough, I can break his armor joints and injure his body. However, the Fire Sword Skill is too slow, and I need to use the Wind Sword Skill. β
So, he quickly retreated, transforming the fighting energy of fire into the fighting energy of wind.
