Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Poison of the Mean
Idealistic celestial phenomena... Fire and Ice?
The moment he heard this name, Ruth Infinit, whose face sank like water, subconsciously raised his eyebrows.
Is it some kind of ability to manipulate temperature?
Judging from the other party's words and performance, this ability seems to be related to his emotions, but this is only a one-sided statement, and the credibility is very low, and it cannot be ruled out that it is a trap deliberately set by the other party......
"Buzz ββ!"
The sound of the blade trembling in the middle interrupted the Night's Watch leader's thoughts.
In the next second, the ice vapor that could only be seen faintly was like a transparent blade, rushing towards the face.
Rutte Infinit didn't hesitate, and the moment he dodged, the floor beneath his feet was covered with ice... Even if it was only half a beat slower, he would never be able to walk on his feet again in his life.
But the gap in the blink of an eye is a chasm that can never be touched!
In an instant, the figure of the leader of the Night's Watch flashed onto the frozen pillars beside him, and his right hand pulled the Mithril dagger out of the ice and slammed it at the Overseer, who had just swung his first sword.
High-level spells, Force Impact.
Three steps before the two figures could touch, the pitch-black Mithril dagger began to tremble uncontrollably, and the "Force Impact" poured into the spine of the sword stabbed out like an arrow.
The sneering Elven Assassin Eugen stood still, as if he was deliberately waiting for Root Infinit to strike first.
"Bang ββ!"
The moment before it approached, the transparent air wave had already melted into ice, and with a "click", it shattered into countless ice crystals in the air.
"The same trick you dare to use in front of me a second time. Eugen had a look of disappointment on his face, and his long frost-covered knife rose horizontally in front of him:
"Your Excellency Ruth Infinit, you're almost confusing me... Did you almost kill me just now, or did I take the initiative to die because I was so impatient?"
In the next second, the long knife danced out of thin air in front of him.
Bangββ!
A huge sound shook the entire Heavenly Dome Palace, and the frozen ice vapor centered on the elven assassin, like a ring, poured out in all directions, cracking apart.
The momentum is amazing!
"Boom ββ!"
There was another loud bang, and the tyrannical ice vapor ravaged everything, and the ice crystals that emitted bursts of cold air were everywhere, turning the entire hall into a world covered in ice and snow.
Standing in the middle of this "ice world", the chief of the Overseer, Eugen, on the only piece of floor intact, looked around.
There is no human ......
Ran away, hid, died?
Impossible......
The smiling elven assassin had a slightly stiff expression.
In the next second, the long knife in his right hand swung out behind him without hesitation.
But it's late!
The moment the ice steam erupted, Ruth Infinit's right index and middle fingers held their breath and pressed against his shoulder.
Poofββ!
The wave of air that shot out from his fingertips pierced Eugen's right arm, and the blood plasma leaked out like an arrow.
The slanted blade swung out ice vapor that swept past the leader of the Night's Watch, and the Hidden Blade sticking out of his left arm was already striking his neck.
Eugen's complexion changed suddenly, and he immediately dodged backwards, while his left hand forcibly grasped his right arm and raised his long knife to parry.
But Root Infinit didn't seem to be in the mood to take advantage of the victory, and after confirming the first hit, he quickly retreated, hiding about five steps away from Eugen.
Not far, not close, just right.
The blood-soaked right arm hung from Eugen's shoulder, completely twisted and shapelessβthe "Force Impact" that ran through the arm not only shattered the bones, but also destroyed the musculature within.
It's just a thin layer of flesh and skin, and an emergency freeze of ice.
"It's ice and fire, and it's very lively... But they are all just tricks conjured up by ordinary flesh and blood, and there is no difference at all. β
The sneering Ruth Infinit raised his dagger, his sun-flare eyes full of undisguised mockery: "Similar tricks dare to be used a second time in front of me, Your Excellency the Overseer, you are about to confuse me." β
"I can't wait... Do you want to die by my sword?"
The smile on Eugen's lips was a little more hideous.
"Agitation, good... Keep up the good work, Lord Night's Watch, and don't let my new joy fade so quickly. The elven assassin's voice trembled with an irrepressible excitement:
"Don't be done so soon, come on, keep goingβit's just an arm, and you haven't killed me yet!"
"No, you seem to have misunderstood. Ruth Infinit interrupted, "I didn't mean to kill you just now. β
Well?
Eugen was stunned.
"That moment just now, it was really just to make you break a hand. As he spoke, Ruth Infinit, with a sudden smile on the corner of his mouth, raised his left arm and shook the severed prosthetic limb in front of his eyes:
"Look, fair play. β
"Dieββ!!!!"
A knife cut off the broken right arm, and Eugen, who sealed the wound with ice, swung his knife and attacked, and the two ice vapors turned into sharp blades, and they had already taken the first step, one left and one right approaching.
Not for the sake of hitting, but to block the escape route of the leader of the Night's Watch.
Boom ββ!
At the moment when the ice vapor raged, the head-on Azorean long knife cut through the ice mist, but there was nothing in front of it.
Missed... Not good!
"Bell ββ!"
Eugen turned abruptly, but the long knife in his hand was knocked off, and the leader of the Night's Watch, who appeared behind him out of thin air, sneered and threw out a throwing knife.
The blade forged from steel was frozen by the ice vapor, but it still left a hole in the elf's armor.
When did he show up?!
"Don't be surprised, Your Excellency the Overseer. Ruth Infinit's usual "gentle" voice sounded: "Why, are you surprised that you can't catch up with me?"
"With so much information, don't we know that we, the 'worthless' miscellaneous night watchmen, are best at running away and hiding?"
"Or did you think that... Can you catch up with me at your own speed?"
"Don't make me laugh. β
Flashing knives!
Even though he had dodged as much as he could, and there was invisible ice vapor protection, Eugen's robe still had an extra mark of a sharp blade.
"Scum, stop me!"
The long knife swung and a large expanse of ice steam rushed towards Rut Infinit's figure like a wave.
Boom ββ!
The freezing water vapor gathered a wall of ice out of thin air directly in front of him, and the leader of the Night's Watch in a hurry dodged like a flickering shadow;
No matter how the long knife was wielded, the ice vapor roared, and he could not keep up with his pace.
"Bang ββ!"
The sound of ice crystals bursting sounded in the back of his head, and the stunned Eugen jerked back, seeing only the shattered ice crystals in the air, and the fleeting, indifferent eyes of the leader of the Night's Watch.
It's that trick again!
It's that invisible air arrow again!
Eugen, with a stiff expression, gritted his teeth, and even the long knife in his hand began to become messy.
Why......
Why can't your own knife catch up with him?!
It shouldn't be like this, it should be him who is passively beaten, and it should be this scum......
Why is it that you have no power to fight back?!
"Shredded! Stop!
Eugen screamed hysterically as if he had turned back into the furious beast, and the increasingly tyrannical ice vapor swung around him with the swing of the long knife, ravaging the temple that had been transformed into a world of ice and snow.
The indifferent Ruth Infinit dodged in the air and the ice vapor, approaching Eugen as if he had lost his mind;
The pitch-black dagger flipped in his hand, and the spine of the sword, once again poured into the "Force Impact", let out a wail as if it was about to collapse.
Ten steps... Eight Steps... Five Steps... Three-step ......
Seeing that the last of the ice vapor was dodged, the enraged Eugen stepped forward and swung the last sword.
Right now!
At this moment, invisible waves of qi converged on the tip of the dagger's blade, piercing out like arrows.
At this moment, the hysterical Eugen smiled at the corner of his mouth.
And then... He took a half-step back.
The Azorean long knife in his hand stabbed straight out - and then, waiting for the scene he had been waiting for for a long time.
That's right, just as Rut Infinit was tempting him, he was also tempting His Excellency, the leader of the Night's Watch.
Although the "Force Impact" poured into the sword body is huge, it is only an air flow and is compressed, and the effective attack range is extremely short;
The farthest is only two steps.
But his Azorean long knife and his reach can attack up to three paces away... Even with the speed at which the leader of the Night's Watch dodged, he would never be able to dodge the ice vapor gushing from the tip of his knife within four steps.
So... Die in peace, scum!
It's exciting to feel an enemy who can threaten your life and death, but it's also exciting to be able to see the tragic death of an opponent who is not on par with you... That's another level of pleasure.
At the same time as the wave of qi poured out from the tip of the blade, the ice vapor had already swung down the blade towards the face of Rut Infinit, and the smile on the corner of his mouth Eugen couldn't wait to see the other party's unwilling and desperate eyes at the last moment.
In the blink of an eye, the waves of air frozen by ice vapor have turned into icicles, approaching step by step... Three-step, two-step, one-step......
One-step?!
How could it be, his air arrows were not only ......
"It's just three steps. β
Rut Infinit's voice sounded faintly:
"Because if you take more than three steps, you won't be lethal... It was meant to be. β
"But when the air freezes into ice, it's a different story entirely. β
What the?!
This, so to speak... He... He used my power to... Kill me?!
The fear and joy of dying, two obviously diametrically opposed emotions, poured into the elven assassin's mind at the same time.
"Boom ββ!"
The ice crystals that condensed into the sword exploded into countless fragments.
It was just a bloody streak on Eugen's neck.
Well?
I'm not dead?
That's right, the other party is just a small scum who can threaten his own life slightly, how can he have the strength and luck to kill himself!
But why... Why do I feel on the verge of life and death... Will so, then anger?
"Uhhhhββ!!!!h
The hysterical Eugen long knife was waved, and the ice vapor around him suddenly dissipated.
In an instant, dazzling golden-red flames erupted around him, exploding!
"Dieββ!!!!!
The blade of the flames swung towards the afterimage of Ruth Infinit.
"Does feeling the threat of death make you so angry?" Skiddling to dodge the raging flames, Rut Infinit's right Hidden Blade poked out:
"It seems that the hypothesis of a little bastard wizard has been confirmed by you, Your Excellency the Overseer... Thank you so much. β
"The pinnacle of anger is fear. β
But Eugen, who was furious, could no longer hear what he was saying.
"Die, die, ββ!!!!"
"yes, why can't you catch up with me? Obviously, when I first started, the one who drove me to death a few times... It's you, Your Excellency the Overseer. The indifferent Ruth Infinit muttered, as if to himself:
"Why can't you catch up with me when you get behind?"
"You ......"
Eugen, whose eyes breathed fire, was about to swing his sword, when suddenly his body trembled uncontrollably, and his legs twitched, and he fell to his knees.
Bell ββ!
The long knife attached to the flame fell to the ground, and the fierce fire scattered in all directions.
"Surprised, nothing surprising. Looking down at the dying elven assassin, Ruth Infinit said coldly: "The Night's Watch is the secret agent of the Empire, the assassin, the executioner and the eye ...... hidden in the shadows."
"Haggy like us, poisoning weapons... Isn't that a matter of course?"
As he spoke, the Mithril Hidden Blade had already pressed against Eugen's throat.
In the next second......
"Boom ββββ!!!!"
A violent tremor came from outside the main hall, and the unsuspecting leader of the Night's Watch stumbled and nearly fell.
But the tremors weren't the cause of his distraction, what really shocked him was......
"The Ice Barrier... Breached?!"
In the violent tremors, Rute Infinit looked at the still frightened and uneasy Overseer in front of him, as if he was completely frightened, and whispered to himself.
The enemies are all samurai who fight with the power of the void, condensing the ice barrier left by the strong void, it is simply the natural nemesis of all such existences, how could it be breached so quickly?
But Rut Infinit didn't have time to be surprised.
"Boom ββ!"
An explosion roared from behind him.
The location, the distance, and the time... Is it His Majesty's dormitory?!
Bangββ!
There was another loud bang, but no longer an explosion, but a whistling of the air being torn apart.
"Poof!"
The leader of the Night's Watch had no time to dodge, and was pierced by an arrow through the shoulder blade of his right shoulder, and his body trembled, barely falling.
His bloodshot eyes inadvertently glanced to his side, widening suddenly.
The corpses of the four elven warriors who originally fell to the ground turned into three at some point!
That is, one of the four at that time was deliberate......
"Poof!"
Another arrow pierced the calf of the leader of the Night's Watch, and with a "poof", Rut Infinit fell to his knees.
"This... Well, Lord Night's Watch, would you please stay away from the Lord of the Overseer to whom I am allegiated?"
A voice full of justice came from behind the leader of the Night's Watch.
"You're so close to him that it will be very distressing for me, the lieutenant and apprentice. β
