Chapter 346: Can't Hide!
The female ninja, codenamed "Spider", is best at relying on the terrain to arrange various traps like spiders forming webs, so that their own side can gain a greater advantage in battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Therefore, the worst thing a spider with a good mind is one-on-one heads-up. That's why she took the initiative to find Katie, who should be the weakest among Dio's group, in order to achieve a quick victory.
Of course, this is not to say that the strength of the spider who is not good at heads-up is weaker, but because her fighting style will be wasted to a large extent when going head-to-head. At least in the case of heads-up, there will inevitably be many traps that the spider has laid in advance that will not be triggered by the only enemy.
These traps that are not triggered, even if they are wasted, and the materials that the spider carries that can be used to arrange various traps are very limited!
At other times, after successfully defeating the enemy, the spider can also recover some of the traps that can be recovered. But now that every second counts, even after successfully knocking out Katie, she needs to go to the rest of the group as fast as she can, so Spider simply doesn't have time to recycle those traps.
This makes Spider, who has always been accustomed to careful calculations, feel quite annoyed.
What's even more troublesome to her is that Katie, who looks silly, has quite a strong beast instinct, and many traps have been avoided by her unusually sharp intuition. Coupled with the protection of "Lazy", who has the strongest defensive ability among the "Seven Deadly Sins", there is no way for Spider to forcibly take Katie in a short period of time.
Even so, this battle must continue.
So after another round of temptation, the spider who had already made a decision began to move quickly, while constantly harassing Katie with various ninja tools, and from time to time came to a sneak attack.
This is to force Katie to move constantly, so that she can trigger more traps, and there is also the intention of making Katie's poison attack faster.
Just as Spider and Katie began to play hide and seek, on the other side of the battlefield, Bloodblade and Melia, who had already met, started a battle that didn't look like a killer and an assassin at all...... Head to head!
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The blood blade roared as he continued to use the pair of scimitars in his hand with a rather special shape to slash out one after another. Countless fighting qi slashes formed a large net that was almost airtight, and shrouded Melia in front of her.
In the face of the bloody blade that attacked like a berserker, Melia, as an assassin, had a cold face, and the two Hidden Blades on her arms were constantly parrying, parrying, and counterattacking.
In this way, one side was desperately attacking, the other side was desperately defending, and after both sides fought at a very fast speed for a while, the bloody blade that had been attacking took the initiative to retreat.
"Whew, whew, whew......"
The blood blade, which was constantly panting, finally recovered after resting for a while. Looking at Melia, who was also panting, Blood Blade said with a strange expression: "You didn't hide once?" ā
"Hehe......"
Melia shook her head slowly, sneered and said, "I originally wanted to hide, but at the moment when I wanted to dodge, I happened to see the smile that flashed on your face!" ā
It was precisely because she noticed that smile that Melia, who should have been dodging the enemy's attack while looking for an opportunity to sneak attack, stopped her left foot, which had already taken half a step back, and then began to desperately parry and block the attack of the blood blade.
"I see, I still don't think I'm calm enough......"
Knowing that he had inadvertently revealed a little flawed blood blade, he shook his head in annoyance. However, he quickly stopped shaking his head and sneered: "It's okay, it's ...... anyway"
"I'm afraid you won't last long!"
After a loud shout, the blood blade rushed forward again, and the hands holding the pair of scimitars shook up and down quickly, with the afterimages of several arms, and slashed towards Melia one after another!
After taking a deep breath, Melia gritted her teeth and parried and blocked again.
But, as Bloodblade said, Melia, who was not good at defending in place like this, was soon in danger under his onslaught.
So much so that the blood blade that completely occupied the upper hand even began to explain triumphantly.
"How's that, what's going on! Don't you feel like it's struggling? Don't you feel like you're used to it? ā
Bloodblade laughed wildly and said, "It's okay! When you can't hold on, you just need to retreat in time! With your skills, you should still be able to escape a few rounds! Hahaha......"
In the wild laughter of the blood blade, Melia's face gradually turned a lot whiter, but she still clenched her teeth and did not retreat.
Even now, though, she still didn't know what the consequences would be if she retreated in the Bloodblade's onslaught.
However, Bloodblade told the secret on his own.
"Do you know why I said that...... How many rounds do you have to escape? You're better than me, aren't you? ā
Bloody Blade laughed and said, "That's because the sword technique I'm using now is quite special!" ā
"In front of this set of sword techniques called 'Thousand Blades Slash', you can't retreat a single step! Because, as long as you retreat, the missing Douqi Slash will be absorbed by the next Douqi Slash I slashed! The power of the latter fighting slash exploded! ā
"In the face of the dough after the explosion, you who are already about to be unable to support it will naturally not be able to take it! So you can only retreat again, and then watch as my Fighting Qi Slash becomes even stronger! ā
"So, if you don't give back, then you can hold on for a while! But if you retreat, you'll die in no time! Hahaha......"
Of course, Bloody Blade is not an idiot, the reason why he is so arrogant to tell the special features of this set of knife techniques is precisely to put more psychological pressure on Melia!
And when the blood blade laughed wildly, Melia, who was desperately defending, gradually frowned.
If this set of sword techniques really has the kind of special effect that the Blood Blade said, then why didn't he deliberately cut it out at the beginning, and then accumulate the power of the Fighting Qi Slash to the strongest in one go, and then slash at me?
After such a thought flashed in her mind, Melia made a decisive decision!
Take a look!
Pretending that she couldn't hold it anymore, Melia took a step back a little embarrassed, avoiding a vindictive slash.
At this moment, the blood blade's eyes flashed, and the right-hand knife that was slashing out the Dou Qi Slash suddenly increased by two points, and the latter caught up with the Dou Qi Slash that was about to fail, and then the two slashes in one slash towards Melia!
"Boom!"
Even if she had been prepared for a long time, Melia, who made a parry move in time, was still slashed backwards by this slash.
Then the left hand knife of the blood blade instantly sped up by two points, and after catching up with the fighting qi slash that was about to fall due to Melia's back, it slashed at Melia again.
Melia, who had no time to parry or parry, could only roll backwards.
The corners of his mouth were already hung with sneering blood blades, the speed of his hands increased again, and one after another Dou Qi Slashes were gathered together by him, converging into an unusually huge Dou Qi Slash towards Melia, who was retreating!
The Mystery of a Thousand Blades: Extreme Soul Slash!
"Not good!"
Melia, who noticed this unusually huge Douqi Slash, didn't have time to make any defensive moves, she could only speed up and roll backwards, trying to escape from the attack range of the Douqi Slash.
But what made Melia horrified was that as she retreated, the unusually huge fighting slash actually changed direction slightly and continued to chase her!
Just when Melia, who had fallen into despair, was about to make a final parry move with a pair of hidden blades in her hand, the black chain that had been quietly wrapped around her waist flew out.
Just as a black python opened its big mouth, "Gluttony" suddenly opened the largest pair of sharp blades and slashed towards that unusually huge fighting aura!
"Boom!"
Even the elemental weapon made by Dio, who is a legendary powerhouse, and the "gluttony" condensed by a large amount of dark elements still failed to gain the slightest bit of resistance in this encounter, and was directly slashed out by the unusually huge fighting energy.
Although the pair of huge blades that bore the brunt of the attack were not damaged, the smaller blades that protected the pair of blades had been cut off a lot, and the long chain body had been cut out of a fairly obvious gap.
However, with "Gluttony" blocking in front of her, Melia finally got a little chance and escaped from the attack range of the fighting slash at the cost of a slight injury to her left hand.
Just when the unhappy Blood Blade was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Melia, who looked embarrassed, suddenly laughed.
"Hehehehe...... I see it! The weakness of your sword technique! ā
Hearing this, the blood blade, who was still a little unimpressed, was suddenly stunned, and then subconsciously made a face.
"That's right! When I retreat, you can indeed combine two or even more fighting spirits. But ......"
Melia stared at the bloody blade with a straight face, and said with a smile: "This requires you to keep improving the speed of your shots!" So that the Douqi Slash in the back can catch up with the Douqi Slash sent out in front! ā
"In this case, you, who have already focused all your energy on speeding up your hand speed and stacking up your Fighting Qi Slash, don't have the energy to adjust the direction of your attack at all! So, although you can still make some adjustments to the direction of this huge Fighting Slash after it is knocked out, its attack range is still very narrow. ā
"Therefore, this move is not suitable for use in the first place! Because at that point, your enemies still have plenty of time to dodge and escape the range of the massive Fighting Slash. ā
Listening to Melia's words, the Blood Blade did not open his mouth to refute, but quietly clenched the scimitar in his hand.
"I have to say, this is indeed a set of knife techniques that are very suitable for killers or assassins. After all, it's a second chance! ā
Looking at the bloody blade standing there, Melia's eyes flashed with envy.
As she said, this set of knife techniques is indeed very suitable for killers or assassins, but it is not conducive to "assassination", but to "forcible killing" after the failure of "assassination"!
It is important to know that in the vast majority of cases, assassins and assassins only have one chance to kill them. Once the first assassination attempt fails, the vigilant mission objective will definitely improve its own protection, so the difficulty of the second assassination of the killers and assassins will naturally increase.
Therefore, whether it is a killer or an assassin, it is generally important to pay attention to the fact that a mission should be successful at the first time.
But it's easier said than done the first time!
Ordinary nobles with higher status, or wealthy merchants, generally hire a large number of bodyguards, and carry some magic items to save their lives, such as rings with protective magic such as magic shields.
In this case, if the assassins make a rash move, the mission target can rely on the protective props on their bodies to block the first round of attacks, and then rely on the bodyguards who rushed to block the next attack.
At that time, in order to save a small life, the assassins often have to temporarily abandon the mission.
However, the bloody blade that has mastered the "Thousand Blades Slash" is different.
If the target of the mission he assassinated blocked the first blow with the help of the talisman item, he could have immediately cast the "Thousand Blades Slash" and rely on the final Extreme Soul Slash to forcibly kill the mission target that was trying to escape!
After all, when ordinary people encounter assassination, it is natural that they want to escape first. And as soon as he ran like this, he immediately entered the attack rhythm of "Thousand Blades Slash".
In addition, the amulets on their bodies have a limit of protection, and once the power of the attack exceeds their endurance, these amulet props will naturally collapse. And the mission objective of the protection was broken by the Extreme Soul Breaker Slash, and naturally there was no way to escape the palm of the bloody blade.
That's why Melia is a little envious of the Blood Blade that has mastered this move: when she was on a mission before, she had also encountered several situations where the mission target relied on a talisman to save a life.
However, after coming back to her senses, Melia sneered: "After knowing this, I naturally have a way to deal with this trick...... As long as you don't have a chance to use this trick! ā
Before she could finish speaking, Melia began to circle around the Blood Blade.
The silent Blood Blade naturally stared at her tightly, but at this moment, "Gluttony" pounced on the Blood Blade again.
After slashing the "gluttony" with his hand, Bloodblade hurriedly turned his head to look at Melia.
However, Melia's location just now was already empty.
At this time, Melia has entered a stealth state......
