Chapter 252: Assassination in the Holy Light
Verina's reaction has to be said to be very fast, and the first moment she realized that something was wrong, she triggered corresponding defensive measures. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But it's too close.
The Assassins had apparently been planning for a long time, and at some point they replaced the two guards guarding the door, and waited for the moment when Verina passed by.
They were well prepared, they didn't use the guards' weapons at all, and the dagger that they pulled out of nowhere, flashing with black light, pierced the shield of light inspired by Verina very decisively.
But it was a good idea to buy the female knight a little time.
She didn't immediately try to draw her sword to fight, which was obviously a terrible thing to do. As she drew her sword, the two Assassins were more than capable of striking her again. It's even more impossible to escape, send your back out to two assassins who know at a glance that they won't be low-level to attack? That's a deadly thought!
So, she can only fight back!
The sword cannot be used, nor is there no means of counterattack. When the two jet-black daggers were about to pierce into Verina's body, a burst of golden light was released again with the paladin as the core.
"Exorcise the darkness! Fearless! ”
[Steel Sacred Body], [Exorcism], the professional abilities of the two paladins have been released!
[Steel Body], you also know by hearing the name that it is an ability to strengthen one's own defense ability. After activating it, the daggers of the two Assassins also pierced Verina's body.
The armor worn on the body at any time, the light shield that was broken on both sides, and the means of strengthening the defense that had just been activated, combined to minimize the damage caused by the first wave of the assassins' most ferocious sneak attacks.
Although Verina was still injured as a result, she could still feel the evil toxin from the wound, invading her body. But at least, in a short period of time, her combat effectiveness will not be greatly affected.
Then, the [Exorcism] counterattack arrived!
[Exorcism] is one of the Paladin's professional abilities, which can only deal damage to people in the evil camp, and will not have any effect on those in the good or even neutral camp.
When these two assassins who ambushed themselves attacked, Verina, as a paladin, must have seen that the power used by these two guys belonged to the evil camp itself, and in fact, there were few killers who were not from the evil camp.
It is precisely because of this that the professional ability of 'exorcism', which specializes in dealing with creatures or dead objects in the evil camp, has a place to use.
With the paladin as the center, the positive energy scattered in all directions completely caught the two assassins who could not succeed in one blow and were just about to make up for another round of attacks, they felt that their bodies were burned by the power of the holy light, and at the same time, as if they had been hit by a heavy hammer, they all flew upside down and fell on the walls on both sides of the aisle.
After relying on the effect of [Exorcism] to temporarily repel the enemy, Verina finally had a chance to draw her long sword!
The knight's sword, inlaid with golden gems on the hilt, was held by Verina's hands. Raising the sword above his head, the shining golden light sprinkled: "Cut off the evil!" ”
[Evil Slash] swing it! Even if the assassin on the left reacted, he couldn't make any effective resistance under the light of the Holy Light, and was directly killed by a sword under the paladin's evil slash.
At this time, the other Assassin had just recovered from the shock of the exorcism.
His mind was still quite clear, and he knew that the assassination mission must be an irretrievable failure. So, he turned around and fled towards the office building. There is obviously some way to increase the speed of movement on this guy's body, the whole person moves very quickly, and at the same time, the figure still looks hazy and erratic, under normal circumstances, Verina, who is wearing a suit of armor, would not want to catch up with this assassin.
But that's not all the Paladin's methods.
"Righteous pursuit!" Another shout, as if a point of light flickered from behind the assassin. Verina didn't take a step to chase after her, but slashed at the air in front of her.
At the same time, a golden lightsaber suddenly appeared behind the assassin and slashed down with Verina's movements!
The Assassin didn't realize the danger was coming, in fact he thought he would be able to escape immediately!
So, under this sword, the guy lay on the ground with an expression of disbelief.
Verena held the knight's sword in both hands, her chest rising and falling slightly. In the blink of an eye, she used the professional abilities of various paladins to complete the reversal, but under this round of explosion, she was also a little weak.
She raised her right hand, and as she prayed lightly, a white light rose, and the effect of the ability to expel toxins surged between her palms. She stroked her palm over the bleeding wound, which, though did not stop the bleeding, was able to dispel the toxins that were still eroding inward.
This series of battle scenes, if Dane sees it, will definitely make Dane greatly change his previous assessment of Verina's 'low combat strength' - the release of these professional abilities, whether it is from the effect of the ability itself or from the timing of the skill release selection, can be called the best choice. This means that Verena is by no means a novice, nor can she be a weakling.
The strength of the skill effect proves that she has enough hard power; The ability to grasp the timing is strong, which means that she must have quite a lot of combat experience.
Of course, Verina's lack of key melee attributes such as strength and physique makes her ability to use swordsmanship to fight the enemy head-on is indeed lacking. But paladins are different from ordinary warriors after all, and it is normal for Verina to fight with fighters of the same level for strength and swordsmanship. However, some of the professional abilities possessed by paladins from the Holy Light are also incomparable to those of warriors.
It should be noted that some of the Paladin's professional abilities may seem like divine arts, but they are completely different from divine arts in nature. Divine art is based on perceptual attributes, and it is to communicate with gods and communicate with a special existence and borrow power to form spells; But the paladin relies on his own charisma attribute and relies on himself to use his abilities. Paladins don't have as many spells to use as the Priest, and even some abilities that can achieve similar effects are not as good as the Priest. However, they possess some unique abilities that are not available to other classes and can be extremely helpful in battle.
For example, the tricks that Verina used just now when she was dealing with the assassination.
The strength of those two assassins is actually not too weak, and all of them have reached at least high-level assassins, that is, about eight or nine levels. The assassination launched at the same time is not so easy to deal with.
In this case, he escaped from the assassination at the cost of only minor injuries, and killed the two assassins alone. Verina, who can do this, can't be said to be poor in combat strength anyway. Pehinth and Chappell, who also have twelve professional ranks, come to deal with the same situation, and they may not be able to do better than the paladin. (To be continued.) )
