Chapter 35: Bluffing

The dragon's body trembled.

That's right, Fafnir, the highest evil dragon of the dragon species. Having killed many brave men in his lifetime, even famous heroes like Perseus and Joan of Arc find it intractable and terrifying.

Just as Mary shuddered involuntarily when she faced Sanson, Fafnir could not take any hero in his eyes, but did not dare to ignore the man in front of him.

Because this is the last human it saw before it died, the brave man who killed it.

Claws, teeth, collision, and dragon breath, he used all means to knock this man down, and in the end, he was killed by him with that big sword, bathing his body with dragon blood, and achieving the prestige of an immortal hero.

That image, that gesture, Fafnia will never forget in any case.

"Declare the sky, my real name is Qi Gefei, and once defeated your people!"

The traversal knights of the Netherlands, the great hero sung in the "Song of the Nibelungen", are also one of the strongest of the Nordic heroes.

Only he can defeat the invincible dragon, and only he can speak to Fafnir in such a tone.

The sword light in mid-air gradually dissipated, but the twilight light on the fantasy sword did not fade, but became more and more full, pointing at Fafna's head as the hero's posture changed.

"What's wrong? You weren't so quiet before, didn't you like to grin at humans the most? Is it because of the effects of that sarcoma? ”

Siegfried's gaze swept across Fafner's back, and there was an obviously abnormal swelling at the base of one of the wings, and patches of granulation could be faintly seen on the swollen surface, probably because of the previous sword light attack, which was still oozing juice.

"Then I'll cut it for you!"

The sword light swayed, and the sword qi surged, although it was not the liberation of the treasure, it was still terrifying.

This time, though, Fafnir didn't sit still, and with a force on his hind feet, the man stood up and dodged Siegfried's slash.

One hit missed, Siegfried was not discouraged, and stepped forward, and the sword qi unfolded.

"Don't you let me cut it? It's ugly, and you're getting more and more disgusting now! ”

"Roar!"

The series of provocations finally provoked Fafner's anger. Rabbits bite when they are in a hurry, not to mention the already irritable dragons. Moreover, Siegfried is not much stronger than it, you must know that Siegfried fought hard for many days before his death, and only then did he win the final victory.

His chest swelled, he breathed deeply, and his signature dragon flame spray raged.

Siegfried had expected that his body not only did not retreat, but continued to advance.

It may seem reckless, but it's actually safer than any way to deal with it. Because Fafnir was much larger than a human, dragon breath erupted from its mouth, diagonally from top to bottom, and a piece in front of its abdomen was exactly a gap, which could not only dodge the dragon flame, but also continue to attack.

Of course, as the most commonly used attack method of dragons, Long Yan has its pros and cons, strengths and weaknesses, and every mature dragon is very clear, and he has already designed follow-up countermeasures.

Press down on the front paws, intercept and suppress with force, and if it doesn't work, you can also take off your body, so that Long Yan will no longer have dead ends - flying is the advantage of dragons, and Siegfried also suffered a lot because of this way before his death.

This time, however, it was not Siegfried who suffered, but Fafner himself.

The claws were dodged, and it was nothing, if he couldn't even dodge this kind of attack, Siegfried had no chance of defeating it. The problem was that the ensuing fluttering of its wings was much slower than it expected, so slow that it was cut by the Fantasy Greatsword before it left the ground.

It was only at this time that it reacted that its wings were still injured, and without the auxiliary fitting of that sarcoma, it was difficult to even fan, let alone fly. It didn't have the mobility to hover in the air at all, so it was shot down by the "Fantasy Greatsword: Heavenly Demon Falling", and there was also a reason for this.

The magician with the scythe was too insidious, too hateful, and it was only a small wound, but it widened the gap between it and Siegfried, causing it so much trouble.

Fortunately, the wound in the abdomen is not deep, it may be that Siegfried has spare strength to prevent emergencies, he has always been such a stable person.

But this state is only temporary, once Siegfried discovers its weakness, he will definitely chase after it.

You have to be careful not to give him such a chance.

Fafna, who had finally risen into the air, circled cautiously, not daring to descend easily, and even the release of Long Yan was very cautious.

How did the evil dragon know when it was frightened, the other side was actually more careful than it, and more worried about revealing flaws.

It seems to be more stable than the old dragon, but it is actually panicked.

Because this "dragon-slaying hero" Siegfried is not a genuine product at all, but a fake disguised by Perseus.

From beginning to end, he was bluffing and gambling.

Bet on Black Joan of Arc is not there, and the others and the dragon don't have the skills and abilities to directly see through the job - it is the prerogative of Ruler to see through the information of the Servant, and there are only two Rulers in this Holy Grail War, Joan of Arc and Black Joan of Arc. As for illusion, although Perseus's illusion is a temporary third-rate, there is not a single orthodox magician on the other side, but it is not worth worrying about.

In addition to this, there is also a bet on the psychological shadow that Siegfried left on Fafner.

Perseus is not Siegfried after all, he does not have Siegfried's high base attribute value, and he does not have the "dragon slayer" trait.

The sword that slashed Fafnir was not a spare force for the unexpected situation, as Fafnir thought, but only left such a deep wound - this is the biggest difference between dragon slayer heroes and non-dragon slayer heroes.

That's why he has been forbearing, Mary was targeted by Sanson, and when Mozart was in distress, he didn't make a move.

It wasn't until Fafnir led the group of bipedal wyverns to attack the city that he seized the opportunity to free the fantasy greatsword borrowed from Siegfried, which was his only reliance and the key to disguise himself as Siegfried.

Relying on the Fantasy Greatsword, a treasure of up to A+ rank, he killed the two-legged wyvern, shot down the evil dragon, and gave Fafnir the most intuitive and powerful impact.

He then continued to provoke Fafnir with his verbal provocations, with the aim of further reducing Fafner's judgment and making him think that he was Siegfried.

After that, the most critical step is to use the unhealable wound left last time to expand the pressure on Fafnir and force him not to attack easily, so as to achieve the goal of bluffing.

Perseus didn't think about killing Fafnir here from the beginning, he was just buying time, buying time for the evacuation of the residents, buying time for St. George and Joan of Arc to purify Siegfried's curse, and buying time for reinforcements from Lixiang's side.

Although he has not communicated with Rikka since the war, he believes, believes in Rikka, believes in Matthew, believes in Marda, believes in their strength and ability, and believes that they will not let him down.

Before that-

"Fafner, I'll have a good time with you and see who has the guts!"
