Chapter Seventy-Two: Victory and Defeat

The black afterimage rushed towards him with unparalleled might, the earth continued to crack and collapse under Javier's charge, and the celestial azure halo on the human-height elemental greatsword swirled back and forth, exuding a palpitating slashing will for a moment.

There are undoubtedly many geniuses in this world, and Javier is the best among them, and the person who can exert the power of the emperor to such an extent is unique in the thousands of years since the founding of the empire!

The elemental blade converted from the power of the wind, a move that strengthens the pure slashing power to the extreme, even compared to Ciel's Everything Broken and Susanoo's Celestial Cloud Sword, is not as good as it, and there is almost no possibility of frontal defense.

Estes could have imagined what a terrifying weapon of mass destruction would become if he put this kind of move on the battlefield!

In the face of Javier's fierce charge, Estes, who had suffered a loss, naturally did not intend to fight with it, her cold ice could not resist Javier's wind cutting force, and if she faced it head-on, she would undoubtedly be completely suppressed.

However, even in such a critical situation, Estes's expression was still extremely calm and unwavering, and there was even a burning battle intent burning in her eyes.

Before Javier could continue to approach, her body quickly bent downward, and at the same time, a huge icicle suddenly rose straight from the spot, supporting Estes directly into the air dozens of meters into the air.

On the premise that we cannot fight in close quarters, we must first keep our distance and think about countermeasures based on this.

At first glance, the current situation is not favorable to her, but in fact, not to mention who will not be able to hold it in a war of attrition, just from the absolute attack power that Javier showed at this time, his defensive ability will inevitably be weakened to a certain extent, at least as the previous flawless wind barrier, Javier can no longer be used for the time being.

In other words, this is the breakthrough of Estes!

Rumble!

The huge icicles that rose from the ground collapsed under Javier's slash, but Estes had already jumped up before his body lost his balance, and his ice-blue eyes looked down at Javier on the ground from a height difference of tens of meters, and then showed a solemn and excited smile.

With a snap, Estes' palms snapped together in the air.

At the same time, a strong sound of shaking suddenly sounded on the ground, and a wall of ice more than five meters thick on all sides instantly rose from the frozen earth, like a cage, just right to seal Javier in it, so that he could not escape.

Of course, this level of blockade is nothing to Javier, as long as he is given a few breaths, he can use the dual swords in his hands to break through the ice prison in front of him!

But what Estes needs at the moment is just a few seconds before and after!

The elemental water rushed and surged high in the sky, and the bone-chilling cold air spread in an instant, accompanied by the sound of clicking and freezing, and one weapon after another quickly condensed and formed in the sky, among them were swords, spears, axes, and heavy hammers...... It seems to be the most complete weapon gallery, where all types of weapons can be found, and there are hundreds of them as far as the eye can see.

Unlike Javier, who was able to maintain the form of the Elemental Blade with all his might, Estes could easily create weapons, and while they were not comparable to Javier in terms of power, they could win by quantity, which Javier could not do.

In other words, as long as it is the battlefield where she Estes exists, she alone is a legion!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh ——!

The overwhelming blades poured down like the fiercest rainstorm towards the only gap in the ice prison, densely packed, there was no gap to be found, and there was no other way to do it than to bear it directly.

Faced with the blow that fell from the sky like a heavenly judgment, Javier stood proudly in place, his sword eyebrows slightly raised, and his face was not afraid.

After all, the opponent was that Estes, how could he win easily? This level of counterattack was still expected by him.

Boom Boom ——!

The sharp weapon made of ice tore through the air and hit it directly, destroying and decaying everywhere it passed, countless snow and dust spread in the bombardment, and the surrounding ice walls also broke and collapsed because they could not withstand this huge attack, burying Javier in the center of the ice wall instantly, and the sound of the collapse and the impact of the ice blue weapon merged into an impassioned symphony!

This is a rain of blades like the punishment of the gods, and anything that stands in its way will be bombarded to the slag!

In the face of such a move, the Falcon people who were watching the battle in the corner fell into great horror, and they looked at Estes, who was still stagnant in the air, as if they were looking at some transcendent being.

If you don't think about it, it will be difficult for anyone here to survive the bombardment of Estes, including Arrowan and Marika, who are in the second order in the Falcon.

This is already a gap in specifications, no matter how strong a person's strength is, he can't face a whole raging army alone, and can only die of exhaustion in the endless torrent of armies.

It is obvious that man cannot compete with war.

But it's a different story to be a monster that exists in itself as war or violence!

Whew——!

The wind suddenly rose, and the terrifying wind fluctuations almost swept the gloomy clouds in the sky, turning into a storm that swept everything on the ground, as if it was the angry breath of a dangerous species of the Wind Dragon, and instantly swept away the icy matter piled up in the center of the battlefield like a hill!

And in the eye of this violent hurricane, there was a black-clothed warrior standing with a giant azure shield in his hand, his silver-white hair raised with the wind, looking outstanding, and his cold purple eyes stared indifferently at Estes who was falling in the sky, and his awe-inspiring momentum soared into the sky!

Seeing that Javier was safe and sound, everyone who watched the Falcon breathed a sigh of relief, although they didn't think that Javier would be defeated so easily, but after seeing Estes's earth-destroying moves with their own eyes, they were still afraid of it.

On the other side, the black pupil had stopped chewing biscuits at some point, her cute little mouth opened slightly, and her black pupils were already full of horror, looking at the azure giant shield in Javier's hand and was speechless for a while.

The shield, which was taller than Javier, had many potholes, presumably the marks left by the previous bombardment of hundreds of weapons, and active cyan points of light could still be seen repairing these broken spots.

While Javier's "Wind Shape" has terrifying lethality, it can also be used for defense depending on how it is used...... Being able to create this powerful move that integrates offense and defense, this man named Javier Salmondo is indeed a genius in the true sense of the word!

In the middle of the battlefield, Javier stared at the flaws in the air that the Estes could not borrow, and decided to take advantage of the fact that the battle was already white-hot.

With a flash of blue light, the giant shield in his hand turned into two huge broadswords with exaggerated shapes again, and behind him, a pair of smooth azure wings suddenly stretched out, like a seraphim descending on the world, and Javier suddenly turned into a cyan streamer and galloped towards Estes in mid-air!

"Oh...... Can you still fly? So, how about this! ”

Seeing Javier galloping towards him with his twin swords in his hands, Estes was first surprised, then smiled softly, raised his hand and snapped his fingers crisply.

The cold current was surging, and a huge ice ball with a diameter of more than thirty meters suddenly appeared in the sky, and then crushed towards Javier who was soaring into the sky with a mighty momentum!

"Useless!"

With a light snort, Javier greeted him fearlessly, the two giant swords in his hands crossed each other, infused with fighting energy, and drew two sharp arcs towards the sky, slashing out a super-large cross qi blade!

With the sound of ice cracking, the Cross Blade easily sliced through the huge ice ball in front of him, dividing it into four parts equally like a knife cutting tofu, and the flawless smooth plane could even reflect Javier's heroic figure.

However, behind this ice curtain, Estes, who was supposed to exist here, suddenly disappeared without a trace.

It's gone...... No, down there!

The purple pupils turned slightly, and Javier quickly saw the ice-blue figure that landed safely not far away, and without saying a word, the azure streamer crossed a sharp arc in the sky, stepping on the long wind, breaking through the air waves, and setting up two swords to rush away!

Estes naturally won't sit still, she struck with both palms, the power of the emperor was used to the extreme, and the endless water elements in the atmosphere became her spear and her sword at this moment!

Rumble ——!

In front of him, there were five or six huge ice ridges rising from the ground, and although the momentum of the roaring rush was fierce, because the target was too large, it was easily dodged by Javier.

But this was only the beginning, after Javier dodged all the ice ridges, countless branches extended from these thick ice edges, just like the most common and threatening pikes on the battlefield, stabbing the black-clad warriors in waves!

However, although this array of guns is pervasive, it is difficult to inflict substantial damage on Javier, and having said that, there is always trouble, at least it has succeeded in blocking Javier's forward path.

After smashing more than a dozen waves of ice prairs from all directions in a row, Javier finally got tired of the endless offensive and defensive battles, and the dazzling blue light suddenly bloomed, and the weapon in his hand changed again, turning from two giant broadswords into an azure knight's spear entwined with strong wind pressure.

"Break it for me!"

With a roar of rage, the ring-shaped waves of air spread out in all directions at the moment when the spear was thrown, rolling up a terrifying wind, and the spear that shot out carried the terrifying power of Pei Mo Can, shattering all the surrounding ice edges and those huge pillars, and rushing straight towards Estes on the earth!

In the face of Javier's killing move falling from the sky, Estes did not hesitate at all, and slammed his palms into the frozen earth, leaving two distinct palm prints on it.

"Sevenfold Rashomon!"

At this moment, the gates made of ice rose from the ground one by one, blocking Estes's body.

There are seven of these doors in total, and each door is depicted with an image that symbolizes death, like a devil's door to a realm of life and death - this is Estes's strongest defensive move!

At this moment, both Javier and Estes could be said to have erupted with all their might, the all-destroying Wind Spear and the fortress-solid Ice Shield collided in midair, and at the center of the intersection of contradictions was a distorted storm visible to the naked eye.

This short stalemate did not last long, and after only a few seconds, it was clear that the strength of the wind had increased and the power of the ice had weakened—the balance of power had finally been broken!

Boom Boom ——!

The Spear of the Storm broke through the six layers of Ice Gate's defenses in a row, and shattered and disintegrated after breaking through the last layer of defense, and then turned into the eye of the storm that distorted everything!

In an instant, all of a radius, including Estes, was swept in by a hurricane, and the black tornado storm absorbed countless dust, grass, and ice slag, and even the dim clouds in the sky were torn apart by this unheard-of strong wind!

A hundred meters away, whether it was a falcon or a hunter, all the spectators were trying their best to stabilize their figures, this terrible suction force even the first-class emperor had to be cautious, if they were accidentally involved in it, they would immediately be smashed into pieces!

Estes, who was at the center of the storm, felt this strong pressure even more deeply, and the current situation was very critical, she had to continue to generate ice on the surface of her body to ensure that her body was not torn apart by the strong winds from all directions, and this feeling of life and death even reminded her of the memories when she was a child hunting dangerous species alone.

However, even at this moment of desperation, Estes still didn't have any panic or fear in his heart, just the blazing blood that kept boiling all over his body and the raging fighting intent that could not be extinguished.

The storm subsided, the battlefield was in shambles, and the ground was littered with wounds.

"Ahem......"

Estes, who had finally survived the attack, fell to his knees and coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood that had accumulated in his throat.

Despite the protection of the ice, the ubiquitous wind blade still tore several wounds on her body, and the slightly embarrassed appearance was no longer as calm as it was at the beginning.

Phew——!

And at this moment, the wind struck from above, and Javier slashed with two swords, intending to deliver the final blow to Estes, who had already shown defeat!

As if sensing something, Estes suddenly looked up, his charming ice blue eyes staring directly at the approaching black-clothed warrior, and then smiled.

That smile is bewitching and peerless, but unruly!

"Maha Bowl Mo......"

Javier, approaching at great speed, could only vaguely hear these words in the gale, and then a strong feeling of discomfort rose up, as if the world was reversed in a trance, and the passage of time became slow or even stagnant......

But this feeling came and went quickly, as if I had suddenly lost my mind in battle, and then my thoughts were instantly pulled back.

The strange feeling had just risen, and the giant sword in his hand had subconsciously slashed down, but this sword that was bound to hit in Javier's eyes was slashed out for some reason, and the person who was supposed to exist here disappeared under his nose.

The greatsword slashed into the frozen earth, sending dust and ice shards up.

"How could it be ......"

Before Javier could exclaim, the pain in his chest suddenly pulled him back to reality.

He lowered his head slightly, only to see a blood-stained tip of the sword pierce through his chest.

The position of this sword piercing is extremely dangerous, close to the heart, and the slightest tremor of the hand of the person holding the sword will immediately cause irreparable injuries.

Behind Javier, Estes, who was holding an ice sword, smiled triumphantly, and she leaned her bewitching red lips close to Javier's ear, exhaling like a blue: "...... I won this duel. ”
