Chapter 9: The Battle at Bath Square

In Yu Han's divine scan, there was a circular open space with a diameter of about fifty meters in the middle of the square surrounded by the crowd, and Artoria was like a duelist who bravely accepted the challenge. Standing in the middle of the square, surrounded by the crowd. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Opposite her stood a middle-aged man with a broadsword, this should be Luke Hodge, the lord of Bath, although he looked a little rustic, but the strong earthy yellow magic emanating from his body showed that the other party was an unusual existence.

Although Yu Han can't tell his level, according to the magic power he emits, it should be the sixth order, and the earthy yellow magic power obviously means that the magic power that he fuses with his body is related to the earth, and he uses a broadsword that is taller than a person, and it seems that he is a swordsman who is strong and good at defense.

He did not look at all like the lord of a city, but like an ordinary old peasant, and when he looked closely, he found that in fact his eyes were very charming, probably a man who was very attractive to young women.

The two men were about ten meters away from each other and were facing each other.

This was probably the first enemy Artoria encountered after drawing the sword in the stone, and her madon-in-a-ray eyes watched each other carefully.

The same goes for the other party, both ignore the voices around them and only have their opponents in their eyes.

"Knight King, I'm attacking." Luke Hodge exclaimed.

Artoria snorted, "Come on, Luke Hodge, you're a respectable swordsman. ”

"Looks like you're trying to have a good fight. It was a great honor to meet the Knight King. Luke Hodge replied with a smile and an exaggerated expression. It is a transparent and tragic smile that only the warriors who are born and die can read.

"Let's get started, then."

Luke Hodge lifted the broadsword he was carrying on his shoulder, and with a backhand twist, he placed the broadsword behind his back and assumed a fighting position. The left hand was also slowly raised. This is a fighting stance that Yu Han and Artoria have never seen before.

Artoria, holding the sword in the stone with both hands, placed it in front of her body, the burst of magic stirred up a whirlwind of air in the air, and the air flow wrapped the girl's petite body, and in an instant, her whole body was wrapped in silver armor, and the magic turned into armor and gauntlets.

The green emerald eyes silently spoke of the pride of the Knight King, and she was undaunted.

"Concept Armament!!" Luke Hodge's eyes narrowed, he was really a local tyrant, worthy of being a disciple of Merlin, the magician of flowers, but ah! I'm done.

The surrounding people swallowed nervously and shouted out the names of the Knight King and Luke Hodge, cheering for them.

The breeze blows a leaf off and the battle begins!

"Click!" Luke Hodge dragged the broadsword behind his back and moved forward quickly, the broadsword crashed against the ground with a loud sound, and the blade emitted a fierce earthy yellow light, dazzling people's hearts.

"Huh!!" In an instant, Luke Hodge was already in front of Artoria's side, and the broadsword behind his back followed the castration of the forward charge, slashing through the air in a half-moon-shaped arc of earthy yellow light, and draped fiercely on Artoria's defensive sword in stone.

"Empty!"

The blades intersected, making a deafening sound, destroying Artoria's defensive sword style, and the sword in the stone was fiercely suppressed, exposing the flaw in Artoria's chest, and Luke Hodge rushed forward, the broadsword slashed through the blade of the sword in the stone, and stabbed straight towards Artoria's heart.

But Artoria made a mistake with her legs, made a waltz-like dance move, spun around Luke Hodge's side, and the sword in the stone slashed at Luke Hodge's legs with the force she had just resisted.

Luke Hodge "Scandium" used the broad face of his broadsword to fend off Artoria's attacks like a shield.

All this was completed in just half a second, and the samurai in armor fought each other in the shadow of swords and swords, and the surrounding audience could no longer see their super-high-speed movements, and could only feel the aftermath of the battle between the two.

There was a sword and sword shadow, and I didn't know what the situation of the battle was, but the powerful air currents and sounds that came with the battle undoubtedly indicated the fierceness of the battle.

The feet that stepped on the ground crushed the earth.

The air pressure brought by the weapon scratched the ground one after another.

The wind murmured, letting out a nervous whining.

At this time, Yu Han, who was observing the battle with his divine thoughts, was already stunned, in the 20th century, there would be no such battle in the world of the type moon.

Not only because of the reduction of magic in heaven and earth, but also because of the development of guns and bullets, which makes people forget the power of cold weapons.

Now there is only one thought in Yu Han's mind, study!!

What a powerful force this is, and how tempting it is, it's a miracle, Yu Han can only watch motionless in the face of a battle he had never conceived, desperately learning to memorize everything.

And at this time. The same consternation also appeared in Artoria's mind, for her, her attack was blocked for the third time, and the smooth pace of the battle, and the fierce momentum of the battle, forced her to retreat.

"What's the matter, Knight King, your attacks are useless." Luke Hodge sneered, the Knight King, who originally thought that she was far more powerful than herself, turned out to be an immature doll, without the slightest fighting momentum, even if she had more strength, magic, and weapons than herself, she had not experienced a real life-and-death battle, and she could not exert her true strength at all, and sooner or later she would be defeated by her own sword.

In the face of Luke Hodge's teasing, Artoria had no room for rebuttal. He has fought for 30 rounds, but he has not hit his opponent once, but the opponent often forces himself back from unexpected angles.

Luke Hodge's dancing broadsword draws a fairly wide range of attacks, and the broadsword makes up for the lack of power, and the smooth pace of the fight makes the most of the time.

The broadsword shifted like feathers in both hands, and from time to time it stabbed at Artoria from an unexpected angle.

But it was Artoria's surprise defenses that cracked it.

Time passed slowly, Luke Hodge and Artoria have been fighting for more than a hundred rounds, although Luke Hodge has been relying on his own life and death to sharpen the combat experience to suppress Artoria, but he can't help the girl in front of him, but feels that the opponent is constantly adapting to his own attack rhythm, rapid growth.

"Very powerful man!"

The first time she went out, she was confronted by a strong enemy, and Artoria was trembling until now. And now, he suddenly broke free from this shadow and gradually began to fight back.

Although it seems to others. Now it was Luke Hodge's intensive offense that gave him the upper hand in the fight, but it wasn't.

In the observation of Yu Han's divine thoughts, Luke Hodge has been shooting from the first time to the present. For the sake of attack, it can be said that it is exhausted. Although he continued to tease and tease, trying to break Artoria's will, he was also unable to turn the situation around.

On the contrary, because of the red dragon blood in her body, Artoria still maintains abundant magic and physical strength, and at the same time, her terrifying intuition has always made her undefeated, and she continues to learn and grow in the fierce battle, and gradually exerts her strength.

"Sure enough, he is worthy of being the Knight King! It's just a hunch! Yu Han couldn't help but complain fiercely.

"Boom" Another fierce blade collision, Luke Hodge, who could wield the heavy broadsword with one hand, was suddenly repelled by Artoria's heavy attack to the peak, and plunged his broadsword into the ground and gasped for breath.

"Won't she get tired?"

Luke Hodge secretly complained in his heart, and glanced at the blade of the weapon in his hand that had been fighting with him for decades had cracked, and Luke Hodge, who had not been damaged by the other party's sword in the stone, couldn't help but sigh, and then calmly spit out the spell.

"Merxis" Ancient Goblin Words [Ecstasy]

Then Artoria's eyes flashed with a black light, and her eyes glazed over, as if she had lost her mind.

"Forgive me, Knight King, I must win this battle!!" Luke Hodge said silently with a calm face.

The battle was still going on, and the audience, who couldn't see the sword moving at high speed, didn't feel any difference between the two and the original battle, not only the people, but even the swordsmen below the fifth rank couldn't feel the difference.

Only some old warriors who have been through life-and-death battles can feel the slightest disharmony with their keen battle instincts.

But Yu Han is not among them, and the divine thoughts that fill the space can carefully observe the subtle changes in the expressions and heartbeats of both sides of the battle.

He found that since Luke Hodge pronounced the "Mercis", Artoria's eyes seemed to have lost his mind, and he was only defending passively with his instincts, with no signs of attacking at all, and Luke Hodge was also attacking as if he was acting, which made him suspicious.

Because this is not like the will of a warrior mysterious, because there is no magic and will fluctuation in Luke Hodge just now.

It should be some kind of curse, Yu Han thought silently in his heart, and then couldn't help but open his eyes, took out the Soul Eater Bow from the void, and prepared to start the rescue, in case Artoria died in battle.

A large amount of heaven and earth magic power around the Soul Eater Bow was gathered together, the bow body emitted a dark black light, a black arrow like substance was on the bow body, and Shen Nian tightly locked the broadsword in Luke Hodge's hand, Yu Han's blow was equivalent to a blow from a B-rank sixth-order warrior.

A carefully calculated blow will not be like the usual C-level attack, because the difference in strength between the two sides is too great to completely block Luke Hodge's killing move against Artoria, and at the same time, it will not hurt Artoria like Yu Han's strongest B+-level attack.

Probably because he didn't aim at Luke Hodge's body, he didn't feel the danger, but instead struck the lower part of the blade of the sword in the stone with his broadsword again and again, constantly expanding Artoria's flaws, trying to knock her sword down.

And at this time, the surrounding crowd also began to whisper, because even ordinary people could see that the Knight King was about to be defeated.

Luke Hodge attacked the Knight King like a joke, and the Knight King seemed to be gradually losing his strength after more than a hundred fierce battles, and his body began to shake, and he could only defend passively.
