49. Inhibiting coagulation
The frozen arms, the blood-red spikes turned dark red, and their nature changed.
The Goblin Knight's initial struggles were useless, as the huge crescent ice crystals emerged from the earth, using the water of the earth, and silk of ice spread through the ground like the roots of plants.
Therefore, ice does not appear out of thin air, and the degree of icing will vary from the enchanted sword swing at different angles at the starting point, and the more it is from a place with a large water content, the more ice will be formed.
Fortunately, the soil in the village is well watered, and it is suitable for the village chief to plant as a weapon.
The knight's HP did not decrease, because Xia Zuo's sword did not directly slash at it, but caused the ice crystals it was brought out to freeze.
However, the debuff was actually added to the top of the knight's head.
Natsuzuo took a step back and stared at the debuff icon next to the knight's health bar, "Frostbite", which reduces his HP by 1% every five seconds.
Sure enough, after five seconds, the knight's HP decreased a little, which was to no avail.
The total duration of "Frostbite" is currently only one minute, and if it is not removed in the end, it will only reduce HP by 12%, and will not be refreshed by new attacks.
Xia Zuo didn't launch a follow-up attack, he waited......
"Click~!"
Due to the knight's struggle, the spikes on the surface of his arm, which were deep in the ice crystals, were broken by him, and both arms were successfully freed from the ice, but only the blood spikes remained.
As Xia Zuo prayed for, in the original setting of the game, the materials will be fragile after being attacked by ice, including weapons, iron armor, and even dragon scales, but Xia Zuo can't guarantee that the blood thorn will also have such an effect in advance, so it seems to be outstanding.
Now is the time!
Natsu ran left towards the knight, aiming at the opponent's almost bare arms and preparing to attack.
This time, the length of the broken stab finally did not exceed that of a one-handed sword.
Before the furious knight could wait for the new thorn to grow, he began to attack Xia Zuo. Even the claws were no longer sharp, so he could only clench his fists and slash towards Xia Zuo.
The ordinary fist was not surrounded by spikes, and the attack range was reduced too much, and Xia Zuo's automatic reaction did not need to dodge sharply, and he successfully bypassed the outside of the internal hook.
At the same time, the sword of the ice effect once again slashed from below, literally slicing into the knight's right arm, easily separating it.
Again, the HP is reduced by a fifth.
Ice crystals rising upwards from the earth, resembling waves caused by a giant entering the water, sealed the knight's severed arm in the ice.
The knight attempted to break the ice and remove the severed arm. However, Xia Zuo interfered, and the active attack produced a new arc-shaped crystal in the air, and the moisture in the atmosphere in a small area was not as much as in the land, only causing two close-range sword qi slash forms of ice, which hit the knight's chest, although it did not cause fatal injuries, but also forced it to retreat, and failed to seize the arm.
"Huh~" Xia Zuo sighed, his active attack was still so layman, so close, he didn't cut the other party... I knew I would have practiced my swordsmanship in a VR game on Steam.
However, it is also good that the enemy's chest is covered with ice, and the spiked armor there will also be weakened, and the next time you counterattack, the body will probably follow your own consciousness and attack the enemy's weak points, just like when dealing with the ancient werewolves.
The village chief forced himself to regain his senses from the amazement and observance, held up the oil lamp, and saw in the night where Ola was—the blood that flowed soaked the land into a darker color.
"Your Excellency, please!" With stiff steps, he planned to go around to Ola and check on his injuries.
The village chief gradually became aware of the inability to learn Xia Zuo's magic with "replication". Even the "Ice Enchantment" that Xia Zuogang learned can be instantaneous, and the efficiency of casting it is far higher than that of himself who needs to chant in his heart and say the name of magic... I have studied magic for decades, and I can only grit my teeth with hatred and gratitude, but I feel that the knowledge and ability accumulated in this world are still too little.
Xia Zuo nodded, indicating that he would give cover, but he forgot that the village chief couldn't see his movements at night at all.
However, the knights, who were eager to regain their arms, did not have time to pay attention to the two of them, and their nourishment was not as good as one-thousandth of his own arm.
The knight had no choice for the time being, so he decided not to devour it, and first consume his own nutrients to grow an arm, even if he didn't eat the original arm, it could be done......
It struggled to collect the king's blood at the severed limb.
Xia Zuo didn't intend to let that happen, and stepped forward with a sword full of flaws, as if he was deliberately luring the opponent to attack him, but the flaws were really Xia Zuo's highest strength.
The knight waited for the arm to grow and ignored it for the time being, but nothing happened.
I was surprised to find that the ice and snow that had cut off the arm at the beginning had frozen the wound, and the growth strength was not enough to break through the ice.
"Hey~?" Raising his eyebrows, Xia Zuo laughed inadvertently, this was a surprise for him, he didn't expect that icing would have such benefits.
Playing this game on the computer can't cut such a real limb effect, otherwise it won't pass the review, let alone ice and seal the wound.
Given that the opponent's appearance is a monster, Xia Zuo's mood is fine. He can't bear to see the bloody scenes of humans, not even zombies that look like people.
After living here for a long time, will you become numb to blood? Becoming cold to killing? Xia Zuo couldn't help but think distractedly.
Already close to the knight, the latter used his remaining left hand to grow a new blood cone and stab Xia Zuo.
As always, he was avoided by Xia Zuo, and the counterattack went straight to the knight's chest, and he would really attack according to the weakness of Xia Zuo's cognition.
The frost and snow in the air surrounded Xia Zuo's sword, and he sprinted under the horizontal slash, moving from the position in the arms of the tall knight to the back of the knight, and the snow fluttered in the path, and the ice crystals shattered.
The knight's chest was perfectly sliced, the surface of the blood thorns was fragile, and the wolffang's one-handed sword passed through its lungs, as well as half of its heart.
hp-70%
The newly generated ice even wrapped around the knight's neck and half of his back.
Without oxygen for breath and heartbeat, the knight fell to his knees in an instant.
It originally had a strong self-healing power, but the place where the internal organs were cut was also frozen by ice, and the self-healing was ineffective for a while.
Besides, Xia Zuo would not let him go, even if he temporarily lost his combat effectiveness, it was necessary to ensure that he would lose his combat effectiveness forever.
"This is to avenge you for causing me to fall off the cliff, and to complete the task assigned by the head of the novice village." Xia Zuo came to the knight's side and raised his sword.
The knight kneeling on the ground, the spikes in his neck had been weakened by the previous ice, and the height was right, Xia Zuo only needed to slash down like an executioner, and he could cut it off.
The knight's lungs couldn't supply air, he couldn't even make a sound, and he could only faintly hear the wound in his chest emitting the smell of air and blood.
Although they were all automatic counterattacks before, killing goblins and wolf subhumans, now, it is the first time that Xia Zuo has taken the initiative to take the enemy's life.
"Yes, after all these dangers, I can't be confused anymore... I have to do that, as if in real life, before cooking and killing fish, the junior high school student hesitated for a moment. Then, Xia Zuo swung his sword hard and cut off the knight's head.
The enchantment effect is still there, and on the knight's neck, it also forms an ice after the slash.
At this point, the knight's health bar becomes 0, and he can be judged to be completely dead.
The village chief crouching beside Aura didn't know what Xia Zuo said before he finished the knight, maybe it was the prayer used in your hometown's place to end the enemy's life.
"Is that really something that can be done with a single enchantment and sword technique?" The village chief moved his lips lightly and said to himself, "From the beginning to the end, unscathed, the terrifying monster ...... was solved."
In addition to admiring Xia Zuo's strength, the village chief also preliminarily confirmed Ola's wound, and the dwarf's strong physique allowed him to temporarily save his life, but he had to receive treatment quickly.
