1273 The Sword of Watching the Rain, the Talk of Experience
"The strength is good."
On the night of March 28, 796 in the new calendar, in the rain curtain in the city above Tania, the shield warrior named Cangyun Barrier then put away the large shield in his hand, and at the same time looked at the dashing swordsman in the cloth robe in front of him with scrutinizing eyes: "No wonder you can suppress the limelight of the rivers and lakes, it turns out that there are indeed a few catties and two." β
"It's really an honor for President Arashiyama to take it so seriously." The voice answered the other party's words in an ordinary voice, but the smile on Lou Tingyu's face, who was standing with a sword, was still full of obvious smugness: "Of course, if Lanshan can retreat and leave this place with the empire, our gratitude will be even more overflowing." β
"Retreat? Impossible. Putting the big shield in his hand on the ground, Cangyun Barrier then gave his thumbs up in the direction of the fierce battle behind him: "Thousands of brothers have died, even if it is counted as a sunk cost, there is no reason for Lao Tzu to give up at this time." β
"Speaking of which, what is the purpose of your Arashiyama?" The blade in his hand played a beautiful sword flower, and the player named Lou Tingyu then sent the congregation behind him to increase the number of people in other directions: "You don't really think that the strength of your people alone can break through our defenses and then defeat Tania?" β
"I'll admit it's a bit too whimsical."
Groaning his head, the cloud barrier's gaze looked into the city of Tania, which was surrounded by deep rain and darkness: "Although it is not as magnificent as Redkar, such a large city is amazing enough for the capital of the principality. β
"We have nearly 20% of the population this time, and it is impossible to compete with a city with a population of one million." Speaking of this, he grinned, and then his burly figure also showed a calm light: "This operation is just that we follow the orders of Her Royal Highness Princess Rena and cooperate with the investigation team. β
"Cooperate with the mission?" The heat wrapped around the blade of the sword in his hand finally dropped with the temporary suspension of the fight, and Lou Tingyu, who spread out his hands, tentatively asked his own question: "But the investigation team didn't do anything at all, they just watched you come over from behind your back to send you to death." β
"I can't answer this question for you." Putting away the smile on his face, Cangyun Barrier once again erected his big shield: "Want to know what our purpose is?" β
"Ask me about the shield in my hand first!"
Unlike the muffled sound of metal clashing that then appeared in the corners of the alley, it was quickly drowned out in the fierce battlefield that took place near the southern gate of Tania, and the sight of the blades and shields clashing together did not produce any brilliant light, and it did not seem to be as fierce as the battlefield next to the roar of magic and duchy soldiers. The staggered footsteps then accompanied by the staggered body slowly separated towards the sides of this muffled sound, and then there was a deliberately suppressed shout, and the seemingly ordinary long sword held in Lou Tingyu's hand then also shone with brilliant brilliance in the dim streets and alleys, and the sword slash that turned back and crossed also faintly carried a bit of red feeling: "Stormy rain!" β
The tinkling sound then appeared on the surface of the large shield raised by the Cangyun Barrier, and the seemingly red slash also sent out a continuous effect produced when multiple attacks hit, and the superimposed force state then left a deep imprint in the center of the shield of the Cangyun Barrier, pushing the rock-solid shield warrior backwards: "...... What the? β
"Tempest!"
Another shout then appeared in front of the Cangyun Barrier, accompanied by the long sword erected by Lou Tingyu who strode forward, and then the sword qi like smoke and rain also formed a series of thin needles pointing at himself in front of the Cangyun Barrier, reflecting the mid-air on the side of the alley into a neon red like smoke: "Surprised, surprised, not surprised?" Your Excellency the President of Arashiyama? β
"Rain-like sword qi ......"
The red rain of smoke instantly descended in front of the Cangyun Barrier, and there was an incessant sound of hitting on the surface of his shield and armor, and the Great Shield Warrior, who was unable to block all the attack points with his shield at all, could only watch the slow decline of his HP, and at the same time whispered in a shocked tone: "Even if you enter the Grandmaster Era, this kind of sword qi use technique cannot be achieved in the free world. β
"That's right! That's my hole card! The drizzle composed of sword qi began to gradually slow down, and Lou Tingyu, who raised his sword with one hand and pointed straight ahead, heard the rain laugh smugly became louder: "If we don't even know this 'secret', how can we be among the league's popular meetings?" β
"It's hard to say whether the 'Alliance's First Fashion Club' belongs to a popular society, but the 'secret' you know is definitely not a good thing." Slowly erected his body oozing blood, and the voice of the Cangyun Barrier was full of sighs: "Otherwise, if you look at the rivers and lakes next to you, they don't even care about Tania's life or death." β
"Hey, don't get involved with us." A faint shout then came from far away from the battlefield in this alley, and the Five Elements Lack of Earth who was standing there then shook off the dust that spread around him with a smile: "What kind of means you are willing to use to fight is your business, and it has nothing to do with the current position of our rivers and lakes. β
"Hmph, this group of people can only watch the drama now, and they don't have the courage to confront us head-on." Looking at the face of the five elements lacking soil with disdain, Lou Tingyu's erected long sword was also thrown aside: "After this war, we will definitely surpass the status of the rivers and lakes and become the number one guild in the principality." β
"Hmph, the ambition is not small." Signaling to the rear, the burly figure of the Cangyun Barrier also took on a fighting posture again: "But even if you can use a skill that does not belong to this world, it is not certain whether you can achieve the final victory." β
"Ha, you mean that you can continue to hold up for a few more rounds under my 'Rain-watching Sword'?" Lou Tingyu laughed loudly: "Don't dream, this is an indiscriminate attack, even if it is a well-defended big shield warrior, it is impossible to prevent all the damage!" β
"The scattered sword qi will inevitably lead to a decrease in attack power, and although my size has also become a weakness, it has not prevented me from using my defense to force through these few rounds." Shaking his head, the Cangyun barrier began to walk forward unswervingly: "And-"
"When the shrunken turtle is a deadly fight, how can a person with my character choose?"
He grinned as he tilted his body slightly, and a magic arrow glowing with emerald green light then cut through the darkness behind him and shot straight in the direction where Lou Tingyu was. The next move of the sword style that he wanted to launch stopped in mid-air, and Lou Tingyu, whose disdain on his face had not completely disappeared, then hurriedly made an emergency evasion action, and then a shield slam was also wrapped in a mountain-like momentum, and slapped directly on the posture of the swordsman player who was still dodging: "I chose to dodge, don't let me guess the direction of dodge so easily!" β
ββ¦β¦ Damn it. β
The tumbling action then appeared in the depths of the alley where the swordsman's body was flapped away, accompanied by the angry scolding when he raised his head: "You actually engaged in a sneak attack? What about a good one-on-one heads-up? β
"Who had that agreement with you?" Slapping his shield, the Cangyun barrier approached in the direction of the opponent's rolling: "This is a battlefield, there are no rules such as alliance competitions, if you want to win the final victory, of course, you have to do whatever it takes." β
ββ¦β¦ Since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust. Wiping the blood flowing from his nose that was flattened, Lou Tingyu's eyes also became fierce: "Lao Tzu also has support." β
"Arrows!"
He let out a loud roar, and then sent two arrows that appeared in the darkness to the front of the Cangyun Barrier along the fingers he pointed out, and the latter, who reacted quickly, also hurriedly blocked the front of the two arrows with his raised large shield, and sent a strong resonance in the air like gold and iron. The magic support attack from the side of Arashiyama then quickly found the direction of the source of the two arrows, and used three or two arrows of wind that were entwined with each other to suddenly fall towards the roof of a house deep in the city of Tania, and Lou Tingyu, who had re-erected his long sword, then condensed a fine red light again, and the next scattered red light that he wanted to swing was interrupted by a suddenly enlarged shield: "Wind and rain in all directionsββ"
"If you don't have to, don't keep shouting the name of the move."
The enlarged shield shone with a strong resonance in front of Lou Tingyu, and finally condensed into a shield-shaped wind that slapped him out, stepping out of the cracked cloud barrier on the ground under his feet, and then continued to move forward, holding the shield with both hands and smashing it hard towards the swordsman player who was rolling backwards: "Even a delay of a fraction of a second may cause the failure of skill release." β
"Attack?"
Dodged the shield smash with one hand, and rolled to Lou Tingyu, who was farther away, covered the blood at the corner of his mouth and commented in a low voice: "With your identity as a big shield warrior, what qualifications do you have to fight with me as a swordsman?" β
"It's confidence, and experience."
His eyes then flashed again with the appearance of the shield from small to large, as well as an iron fist waved by the Cangyun Barrier with a smile: "Compared to your strength, your experience is obviously a little lacking. β
"As long as you don't make superfluous moves, it's more than enough to catch up with a swordsman like you."
Bang!
Another dull collision sound echoed around the alley, and Lou Tingyu, who was hit by the fist in front of the door, was "forced" to roll farther this time, and the uncontrolled body then left a deep trajectory on the ground, and only after a while did he get up again with the swordsman's angry voice: "You...... You ββ! β
"Burning the sky!" He looked at the arrows behind him that were constantly clashing with magic, and shouted in the direction where they came from, "Don't get tangled with those guys!" Support me! β
"President!"
The resounding report replaced the answer of the archer who didn't know where to hide, accompanied by a player belonging to the Listening Rain Building who hurriedly ran from the back of the alley: "President, President!" β
"I'm shouting about the burning sky, not you." Tidying up his scattered clothes and forcibly maintaining a master's demeanor, Lou Tingyu then turned back to his arrogant head: "What are you running over to make a fuss?" β
"That, that...... There is something urgent to report. Looking at the burly figure in front of the Cangyun Barrier, which had not attacked again, the player shrank his head: "There was news from below, they have encountered some ...... Circumstance. β
"That Spartak reappeared."
********************************
"That's what you're talking about?"
Looking at the figures of the large number of players gradually approaching in front of him and their expressions gradually emerging from the darkness, Duan Qing, who turned around, asked speechlessly, "Looking at the current situation, I think we are their target." β
"It's all the people who listen to the rain building." Twisting his fist, Spartak, who stepped forward, then blocked Duan Qing and the Eight Birds behind him: "I also have a bit of a holiday with them, since the first few days ago, I have been entangled until now, this mysterious place, I also secretly followed them to break in." β
"They already know about this place?" So Duan Qing's surprised eyes widened a little again: "How is it possible?" Are they with Pa...... Is there a deal behind the scenes with that mastermind? β
"I don't know yet." Shaking his head, Spartacus's shiny bald head then shone in the magical light that was gradually rising in front of him: "I followed them here-"
"It's also to investigate this matter."
A loud shout then appeared in the air between him and the group of players, accompanied by a sudden stirring fist gang erected in front of the passage close to Duan Qing's side, and the invisible wall formed by the powerful fist gang then became a solid shield on Duan Qing's side, blocking all the first round of long-range attacks from the other side of the passage: "Hurry up!" β
"Huh? I thought you wanted to have another round with them. β
"There are a lot of people they have sent, and there should be no point in continuing to entangle." Keeping his hands moving forward, Spartak said without looking back, "Your enemies are also behind you, and they don't know when they will rush over." β
"So where should we go?" Duan Qing rolled his eyes: "There are people in front of and behind the passage, so you can't dig an exit by yourself...... Belch. β
He closed his mouth, and then followed one of Spartak's raised fingers to the side and looked to the side, where the inconspicuous black pipe hanging at the top of the passage was also breaking the iron plate that obscured the surface with the violent interweaving of wind and magic, and the black hole loomed in front of them.
