Chapter 51: Fighting and Strategy

Teaching team dormitory, sandy area.

Anjie and Sergeant Arred are on two sides.

"The rules of duels are melee battles, where one side abstains or loses the ability to fight. In the course of the duel, you must not use techniques other than the magic saber, what do you think of such rules? Sergeant Scarlett? ”

"Yes."

The rules are a little unfavorable to Anjie. When it comes to gladia fighting, the taller the person, the more advantageous it is. Tall, legs, arms, and farther places to attack. A little short leg like An Jie can't do it.

However, they are not engaged in traditional fighting or anything like that, and if they make good use of the magic saber technique, the chances of winning are not narrow! It's just that......

(System, what is the magic saber technique?) I haven't used it! )

『………………』

That's right, An Jie doesn't know what the hell the magic saber is! The only thing she'd ever seen that could be anything to do with it was Nimbus II's iron-sharpened beam sword. If Sergeant Arred's so-called magic saber technique could have half the power of that thing, An Jie would probably abstain without hesitation!

Is face or life important?

Nonsense! It's just a competition, of course, it's fate!

Still, the development of events made her breathe a sigh of relief.

I saw Sergeant Arrid take out a flashlight-like thing from his waist, and with the sergeant's movements, a beam of light more than a meter long popped out with a "drop" sound.

(Laser sword?!) )

"Laser sword?!"

………… It's not good, it's out in your heart!

"Laser sword?"

Alrid was stunned.

"Hasn't the sergeant seen the magic saber? This is a magic sword enchanted with a saber technique...... Is it possible, sergeant, you ............"

"Ahem!"

An Jie put her hand in front of her mouth and coughed to hide her embarrassment—she really didn't know how to do saber techniques.

Still, making something like that wouldn't bother her.

Putting her hand on her waist, An Jie made a knife drawing motion. As she moved, a steel sword that glowed red in black appeared in her hand.

"If the magic saber is used, I wonder if I can use it instead?"

Arrid looked at the steel sword in An Jie's hand, his eyes narrowed.

Dangerous!

It's the first impression, and nothing else.

"Yes, but not in any other way."

"No problem."

Despite shouting from the bottom of my heart that I can't let her use that! But in the end, the other party is a child, or a patient who has just recovered. The glory of being a soldier made Arrid really unable to pull his face and ask for more.

So, the rules were set.

Then, the battle began.

The two were delayed for five minutes while discussing the rules of the battle. In the past five minutes, many soldiers who had heard the news of the duel were coming one after another.

"What do you think? Morrigan? ”

"What do you think?"

"Don't play dumb there!"

The marksmanship instructor stabbed his colleague.

"Who do you think will win?"

“………… Sergeant Ann Scalett, I think Sergeant Scallet will win. ”

This answer was obviously not what the marksmanship instructor expected.

"Why? Sergeant Arred is your protégé! And he himself is an elite soldier in the teaching team! ”

"Read on and you'll see."

Lieutenant Morrigan shook his head, not saying anything else.

And on the field, Anjie and Alrid have been fighting for a while.

"Poof!"

The Beam Sword collides with the Steel Saber. In terms of pure strength, An Jie obviously fell into disadvantage. Short in stature, she couldn't use the power of her saber when facing the tall Arred.

It is said that a small player like An Jie should give full play to his flexible advantages and keep harassing and attacking. But Sergeant Arred doesn't lose his reputation as an elite, and whenever Anjie tries to get out of the way, he always finds a flaw and launches a sharp attack.

"What a desperate chase! Sergeant Arred! There must be a lot of girls who have been chased by you with this trick, right?! ”

"It's over, Sergeant Scarlett. In fact, I am still single. ”

(I'm not praising you, hey!) )

An Jie rolled her eyes widely, and she didn't continue to be bored with the serious Arred. When the body quickly dodged the opponent's attack, the saber in his hand flicked violently!

The blade of the saber, which was originally black and red, suddenly softened, and a sharp steel whip was drawn towards Arrid from a tricky angle!

"Can it still be used like this?!"

There were exclamations from the spectators, but Arred didn't have time to pay attention to them. He raised the laser sword in his hand slightly and made a stabbing motion.

An Jie suddenly had a bad premonition!

"Gun stab!"

It's just a slender beam sword, but it feels like a spear was forced out by Sergeant Arred! After the stormy spear stab, An Jie's whip sword was stabbed in pieces!

(Can it still be used like this?!) )

An Jie, who didn't have time to regain her momentum, could only watch as the "spear stab" in Sergeant Arreid's hand turned in the direction and stabbed at her!

Are you going to lose?!

………… It's weird.

“………… Hey ......"

"Buzz!"

The splinters of the saber that had been scattered by Arrid suddenly turned their spearheads and flew towards him!

If you look at that speed, it will definitely be An Jie's knife that will hit first!

However, Sergeant Arred only frowned slightly, and his figure suddenly exploded! The laser sword in his hand was raised, and with a slight flick, all the saber fragments flying towards him were shot down!

At this time, An Jie had already distanced herself from him.

(Huh...... )

"That's a beautiful martial artist, Sergeant Arred. Seriously, I was really scared when you stabbed me! ”

An Jie pinched her waist with one hand and looked at Alrid with a mocking expression.

"What's that?"

This is obviously the same trick that the sergeant just used. And Arred didn't mean to hide his secrets, so he said it honestly:

"Spear stabbing, one of the military swordsmanship. With Sergeant Scarlet's level, it won't take long to learn. ”

With that, he lowered his body slightly. Pose with a sword.

"So, let's start the second round ............"

"There's no second round, you've already lost, Sergeant Arred."

The atmosphere in the air was quiet for a moment as An Jie's words came out.

Swordsmanship instructor Morrigan sighed: "The outcome has been decided. ”

The spear instructor standing beside him looked at his colleague with a smile.

"Winner decided? What is the winner? Did Sergeant Scarlet win? How I didn't see it! ”

The other officers who reacted also began to whisper.

Alrid frowned.

What do you mean by that? Sergeant Scarlett. ”

"Eh~ How do you say this...... Well, where to start? ”

An Jie shook the steel sword that she had shortened a lot, and said with a smile:

"Let me ask you a question first, Sergeant Arred, what do you think military swordsmanship is for?"

Alrid was stunned.

"What's the use............ Fight the enemy? ”

"Smack!"

An Jie snapped her fingers.

"That's right! It's exactly what it uses to kill enemies! Sgt., don't you think your swordsmanship is too flashy? In an instant, he stabbed more than a dozen blows with the beam sword! However............ If you want to kill someone, in fact, just one knife is enough. ”

The off-field marksmanship coach is unknown.

"If it's gorgeous, isn't she the same?"

"No, it's not."

Instead of Anjie, Morrigan replied:

"What she wants to say is not a question of being gorgeous or not, but a question of purpose! You watch their feet. ”

Feet?

The marksmanship instructor looked at him suspiciously.

Nothing but sand and a layer of iron powder? Very positive............

………… Iron powder?

The marksmanship instructor was surprised! Where did that layer of iron powder come from?!

"Notice it, that layer of iron powder. Sergeant Scarlett deliberately scattered on the ground when he fought Arrid with his sword, and the fact that she turned her sword into a whip and was stabbed by Arrid accelerated the process. And for this is the present moment. ”

On the stage, with An Jie's gestures, the iron powder rising from the ground wrapped Alrid in an airtight air. As long as she gives an order, these iron powders can be turned into sharp knives and dismantle him!

"In order to follow the rules, the total amount of iron powder and the sum of what I have in my hand is exactly the weight of a sword, how about it? Do you want to weigh it? Sergeant. ”

Arred: ".................."

Morrigan shook his head.

"Sergeant Scarlet was laying out from the start, and Arred didn't lose unjustly...... He's too upright, but as a soldier, he's as calculating and unscrupulous as Sergeant Scarlett............"

"It's the right thing to do!"
