24, a weakness

The corners of Hoffa's mouth twitched, some of his identities were like maggots attached to the bones, completely impossible to get rid of.

He knew this guy, Ethan Dominic.

A wizard in France, a half-giant, a wizard killer.

One of the first to defect to Germany and become one of Grindelwald's former students, he had been hunted down by this man once when he first set foot on French soil half a year earlier, but that battle was avoided by the cunning Norber. And now, he is alone in the face of this so-called senior brother, and the unknown conflict seems to be inevitable.

"It's none of your business, Dominic, I don't want to go against you. He whispered.

The man carrying the giant sword raised his head and laughed twice: "I think that being favored can also be taken for granted." Do you think I'll love you like a teacher, Bach? ”

"The fanaticism pollutes your mind, and Grindelwald loves no one. ”

"Yes, while he taught you the Broken Grip, I had to clean up in his wizard's tower. While he went to England to see you in person, I was arranged to round up Jewish Muggles in Paris. While he planted the power of the Void Dragon in you, I was sent to watch over the boring seas and hunt down the worthless garbage smugglers. ”

Dominic circumnavigating Hoffa: "All along, I thought it was a necessary price. It took me more than thirty years to get his attention, and you, it took less than three years. ”

"If you call these pampering, I have nothing to say. ”

"Isn't it what is pampering? Tell me, has he given you immortal power?"

"I don't know what you're talking about, Dominic. ”

The ice on the ground slowly grew, turning into an ice blade that appeared in Hoffa's hand, he picked up the ice blade, and slowly retreated to distance himself from Dominic.

The three-meter-tall giant breathed a sigh of relief: "It's a pity, it seems that he doesn't love you enough." ”

He took a step back, took a defensive stance, and looked at him with extreme caution.

"You want to be his darling, but his rule will not last long, and the future will not be on his side. ”

"It's ridiculous that everyone said it as if they knew what the future would develop. Dominic removed his massive crosssword from his shoulder, "But since you're a junior, I can talk to you about my vision for the future." ”

The half-giant shook his big sword lightly: "I've been thinking about a certain possibility lately. Do you think there is such a possibility, for example, if I kill you to prove my strength, the teacher will look at me differently from now on, and then give me eternal immortal life. ”

Hoffa's cautious expression loosened, and he almost laughed, "You can try." ”

"Well said, let's wait and see. ”

The half-giant put on his helmet. Disappeared in place.

So fast!

Hoffa's eyes rolled, and he immediately raised his hand to block.

When!

With a loud bang.

The moment the two staggered by, the ice blades shattered,

A huge gap opened in the mouth of Hoffa's sword, and his thumb was bent over.

Dressed in armor, Dominic erupted at a speed no less than his ghostly walk, crashing into him like a running Tyrannosaurus. directly smashed him back nearly twenty meters.

He rolled several times in a row and climbed up, grabbed his palm tightly, and broke it hard, and his bloody thumb returned to normal.

He had never seen such a powerful physical force, not even a dragon could compare to the guy on the other side.

"Not worthy of the name. ”

Dominic on the ice lightly pulled a sword flower.

The incomparable heavy sword was flipped out of his illusion like a katana.

He disappeared in place again, and this time Hoffa didn't dare to take it hard. The magic turned to life, and he ran wild on the ice.

His opponent directly phantom shifted, and then the phantom appeared, and the moment he appeared, he slashed sideways, faster than lightning.

Seeing that he was about to be cut in half.

Hoffa exerted his waist strength and forcibly used his leg muscles to jump high with a sideways flip, dodging the fatal blow.

Before he could land in the air, he took out an alchemy pistol from his pocket, aimed it at Dominic's helmet, and pulled the trigger. The armor was lit up by a blazing fire, but it was completely blocked by the transparent shield charm before it could be hit.

"Where's your magic, Bach!"

Removing the shield, Dominic scoffed, "Or are you not good at magic?"

He was answered by another hidden, searing bullet in his backhand, which struck the bolt of his helmet and deflected it.

There was no breach of the defense.

The moment the rabbit fell, the two passed by, and Hoffa rolled over and got up like lightning.

Dominic stood still, touching his helmet that had been crooked by the bullet, and chuckled softly, which grew louder and louder, and finally turned into a sarcastic laugh.

"Hoffa Bach, the youngest master of Transfiguration in history, the releaser of the legendary shield, Grindelwald's most valued student!? ”

With that, he dragged the giant sword and thrust it heavily into the ice.

"Ice Hell is heavy!"

The dense ice needles in the sky fell like rain, each one as sharp as a blade. And the frozen sea has grown into a dense coniferous forest, which is almost impossible to settle.

Hoffa tosses and jumps, then lands and spins.

He was always able to dodge the ice needle before it touched him, but even then, there were several cuts on his clothes and face.

Every time he dodged the ice edge, he would raise his hand, take out his alchemy firearm, and shoot Dominic with a single shot.

The bullet crashed into the armor, sending out a long spark that slipped into the spark. But he couldn't break through the defense, and could only leave a shallow white mark on him.

The two of you chased me and ran wildly on the ice.

In the distance, the two women who were hiding in the lifeboat and peeking were stunned, and the young man who kept moving and dodging in the absolute danger was as graceful as a dance, and if he was not careful, he would turn into a dance of death.

Soon, Dominic grew impatient.

"Drink!!"

He roared and slashed with his sword.

The concussive magic enveloped the sharp air and plowed a long ravine into the ice.

Ice chips flew sideways, and Hoffa, on his knees, hung the Admiralty upside down, grabbed a gap, and firmly attached himself to Dominic's back.

Another blade appeared in his hand, this time, the blade of ice turning into steel.

He slashed the steel knife into the bullet in Dominic's helmet.

There was a loud bang.

The metals intersect and make a tooth-aching sound.

Dominic's helmet was a little looser.

He raised his arm high in the air, and it was another thump.

Boom!

With a muffled thud, the blade snapped into the gap in Dominica's helmet.

He stepped on the half-giant's shoulders with all his strength, the blade shattered, and Dominic's helmet writhed with crystalline metal shards.

"Delusion!!"

Dominic roared and lifted Hoffa's neck with his backhand, slamming him down and smashing the ice into a cobweb-like crack.

After pressing it, it dragged for dozens of meters, shattering countless ice spikes before stopping, and his head was bleeding.

Bang Dang!

The helmet fell into Hoffa's hand.

This was followed by Dominica's wide open and closed blades.

He rolled and vanished.

Blades smash the ice.

The battle entered a complete white heat.

The two of them flickered around the ice like ghosts. Each time it appeared, it was accompanied by a violent metal crash. With each impact, the blade in his hand would be smashed to pieces, but soon he would recondense one.

Rumble!!

An attack accompanied by Dominic's fury to the apex.

Bang!!

The blades that had morphed into metal were smashed in two again.

The huge force swept the thin boy up like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind. He floated in the air, a sharp blade on his tiptoes, flashing backwards at a rapid pace.

"Face Me !!"

Dominic picked up the big sword in a rage, spun it for two weeks, and threw the cross sword directly.

The great sword turned into a meteor in the air, piercing the figure in the air.

Cha!

The blade penetrates the body.

In the distance, inside the lifeboat, two women screamed in horror, and in their view, the giant crosssword pierced directly through the body of the leaping gray-haired boy, pinning him firmly to the ice like a throwing knife juggler hitting an apple in the head.

"Hoffa!"

Inside the lifeboat.

A weakened Chloe struggled to her feet and rushed in the direction where he had been killed.

......

......

Dominic gasped heavily. He touched the broken iron filings around his neck, and looked at the figure in the distance who was motionless and nailed to the ground, and couldn't help but laugh heartily.

"Hahahahaha......haha

He strode to the point where the cross sword landed.

I saw that half of the gray-haired young man's whole body was smashed into the ice. It was smashed into a radish embedded in the ice, unable to move.

He was holding the giant sword inserted in his chest, the flesh and blood in the palm of his hand were blurred, and he had a lot of breath and little breath, and he looked like he was dying.

Dominic said condescendingly, "Run, run." Is this the limit of a legend? Bach, knock off my helmet!?

"Don't run..... Ahem..... You'll let me go.... What.... Ahem....."

"Not really, little friend, your head will make me prove myself, and I'll take it for wine and hand it to Grindelwald. ”

He straightened his hair, which had become disheveled from the battle, squatted down with disgust on his face, and held the hilt of his sword: "I really don't know what the teacher has taken a fancy to you? ”

Half-embedded in the ice, Hoffa raised his eyelids and gasped heavily: "You...... You are so confused, why why...... Why didn't you ask him personally? ahem...... Speaking of which, I haven't done anything to you...... You, it shouldn't be me who you resent, but yourself..... Ahem....."

As he spoke, blood spurted from his mouth.

Dominic smiled with the victor's tolerant smile, "That's good, but that doesn't make sense." ”

He straightened up, red flames rising from his blade, "Salut." ”

However, just as he was about to finish off his enemy, the blade of the sword was stuck in a stone, unable to move.

He strained it twice, but didn't pull it out.

This made him slightly stunned for a second.

Then, Hoffa, who was half-embedded in the ground, suddenly let go of his palm, and like a spring behind his back, he bounced off the ground in a completely gravity-defying posture.

The shock made Dominic's face change.

I saw that the wound dripping from the blood of the young man who had just been knocked down was actually glowing with a silver-white metallic luster, and what supported him were two pairs of iron-colored bone wings with no feathers on his back.

The bony hand was like a pterodactyl, propping him up high against Dominic's incredible face.

"As long as you have a weakness!" he smirked, not showing any weakness just now.

Damn, the human body is deformed!?

Dominic realized something, and in a moment of life and death, he turned his head and threw himself at the helmet a few meters away.

The ice deformed and wriggled, and the helmet sank.

Dominic saw that the situation was not good, and raised his sword to block.

The hastily raised blade was bounced away, and the two of them were face to face, less than a few centimeters apart.

Hoffa grabbed Dominic's head in his left hand.

The fingers of his right hand formed five extremely long metal blades, which slammed into Dominic's jaw like lightning and stabbed out of his Heavenly Spirit Cover.

Whoa!

Blade drawn!

Blood is spurring.

The wings behind him for support disappeared, and Hoffa kicked Dominic in the chest, and a backward jump distanced himself from the man who had been attacked.

Dominic touched his chin helplessly, as well as the Tianling Gai, he couldn't say a word when his tongue was pierced, he could only cover the wound with his hand, shaking his head.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he stumbled forward, drawing his greatsword in the ice. Like a drunken madman, he waved it out of order.

The raised ice spikes on the surface of the sea were shattered by him, and he tripped himself up, got up and swung wildly.

Hoffa just stepped back, clutching the wound in his lower abdomen and looking at him indifferently.

The more the blood flowed, the more it flowed.

The sword swings slower and slower.

He found the flaw and rushed directly into the arc of the sword.

"Go...... Go..... Dead ......"

Dominic stared at Hoffa and said in a bellows-like voice.

Clang!!

The black-metal-gloved hand grips the greatsword.

He blocked Dominic's dying blow, "It seems that Grindelwald's vision is indeed not good!"

With that, he snatched Dominic's fiery greatsword, snatched it from his hand, swung it high, and then slashed down with a sword that didn't drag the slightest bit of mud and water.

Click!

Blood gushed out.

The scorching smell is pervasive.

The headless man slammed to the ground.

The middle-aged man's head was like a leather ball, gurgling out of the distance.

......

......

On the frozen sea, there was silence.

Looking at the headless corpse, Hoffa panted, and his nose kept exhaling puffs of white mist. In the black glove, the fiery greatsword gradually extinguished after losing its owner.

After a violent wheezing.

He threw away the greatsword in his hand.

Touching the wound in his lower abdomen, on the black mechanical glove, the mana scale dropped rapidly, and in the activated state, his wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just a little bit, he was pierced in the heart by this guy. Fortunately, his brain was clear enough to clamp the blade between his arms and avoid the vital parts.

After a moment's recovery, he turned back.

Halfway through, he saw Chloe slumped on the ice, staring at him with a blank stare.

"I ....." she looked at Hofa, who was soaked in red and standing in front of her, holding her lower abdomen, her teeth chattering, unable to say a word.

"If I had just forgiven him, I myself would have died. Hoffa said lightly: "I'm sorry, my life is my life, forget it this time." ”

"I'm not..... No...... The ...... who came to you because of this."

Chloe pointed behind her, her body trembling, her face pale, and her mouth saying something incomprehensible.

Hoffa didn't know what she was trying to say, and he didn't want to understand, so he took Chloe's arm: "Go back, while the other wizards haven't caught up yet." ”

Chloe's expression was on the verge of crying, and she pointed to the lifeboat in the distance, "She..... Mary ....."

Hoffa sensed something was wrong.

It's so quiet.

He grabbed Chloe in his arms and quickly rushed back to the lifeboat, and the scene in front of him made him know the reason why Chloe was trembling and frightened.

The little widow, who had been with her for less than three days, collapsed on the deck of the lifeboat, holding the pistol she had given her in the palm of her hand, her pale face dazed and helpless, the same as her usual expression.

It's just that there is an extra red dot on her forehead, and blood is slowly flowing down her head.
