Chapter 156: Fighting Wits and Courage

When the huge countdown number suspended above the sky dome of the competitive ring changed from "1" to "0", hundreds of thousands of spectators in the audience held their breath and stared intently at Zhao Xi and Taozhi, for fear of missing the wonderful moment of the duel between the two sides.

Under the gaze of countless people, Zhao Xi took the lead in lifting the battle shield and strode towards the opponent.

Like a standard procedure, he blessed himself with the Light Protection, the Fierce Aura, and the Holy Bless Aura, which increases his resistance to the Smear of Rogue Weapons.

Rogue is a high-sensitivity and high-attack class, which has a natural advantage over high-defense and high-body paladins, and the former can also use crossbows to carry out long-range attacks, and if you don't quickly approach your opponent, you basically have no chance of victory.

The reaction of the peach was not unexpected, the white-clothed thief took off the black crossbow with his backhand and aimed it at Zhao Xi with his right hand, and with his index finger hooked the trigger, a crossbow arrow shot out!

Zhao Xi had already taken precautions, and immediately raised his battle shield in front of him, blocking the crossbow arrows that were shooting at him.

Syllable!

The arrow collided with the shield and was nailed to it half an inch deep-

27!

A small damage figure immediately appeared on the top of Zhao Xi's head, although his HP was not very high, but this loss was completely harmless, and he casually added a holy healing technique.

Now Zhao Xi's Holy Healing Technique has been upgraded to the intermediate level, and it can recover 10 HP per second, and it only takes 3 seconds to make up for it.

But what he didn't expect was that Momono died after shooting the first crossbow arrow. Instead of going stealthy in the usual way of fighting thieves, the index finger buckled and shot multiple arrows continuously!

Laugh at! Laugh at! Laugh at!

A series of black crossbow arrows attacked through the air, and Zhao Xi hurriedly changed direction and shifted to dodge after blocking two arrows in a row.

Repeater!

The crossbow in Taozhi's hand is definitely not an ordinary product, and the continuous fire function it has is like a single-shot rifle replaced by a submachine gun, and the firepower is so strong that even Zhao Xi does not dare to resist hard-

27! -30! -29! …

Against the opponent's ferocious attack, Zhao Xi approached within a distance of 20 meters, his speed increased sharply, and his trot turned into a wild run, intending to pull the opponent into the melee link in the shortest possible time!

But at this time, Momono put away his crossbow. She took two steps back and disappeared in an instant!

Sneak!

This is the most hated and frustrating skill of thieves. The killer weapon of sneaking attack on the Yin people, the level of Taozhi's stealth skill should be very high, and Zhao Xi couldn't see the slightest clue at all.

He had to stop and fell into a passive situation.

Thieves cannot attack while stealth. But it was impossible to predict when or where her attacks would appear. Although many rogue players like to sneak up on their opponents by stealth + backstabbing. But a true master will never stick to a routine.

I am in the light, the enemy is in the dark, Zhao Xi doesn't know where the opponent is, and he can only stand in place for a while.

"Silly, huh? Behind you! ”

Laughter erupted from the stands. The fans of Peach were obviously very happy about the predicament faced by Zhao Xi, and shouted loudly: "Backstab, debon, poke the heart!" ”

It's just that they shouted through their throats, and Zhao Xi couldn't hear it, because the sound of the stands was directly blocked by him.

And Zhao Xi didn't panic as they expected, he thrust the bloodthirsty battle shield he held in his left hand into the ground, took out a medicine bottle, and calmly flicked the cork off and drank it.

He had just eaten a lot of arrows shot by his opponent's crossbow, and he couldn't completely make up for it with a single holy healing technique, so in order to save his precious holy power, he didn't hesitate to consume a bottle of precious potion.

In the Unrestricted Zone, the system allocates only five vials of light healing potions to both sides, but in battle, it is very difficult to get and drink the pills, because the opponent will definitely have to interrupt them.

So in many cases, the losing side is not able to drink a bottle of potion until death.

Zhao Xi's choice to drink medicine in order to save holy power seemed to be the right choice, but under the threat of thieves' sneaking, his behavior seemed to be exaggerated, and it immediately attracted a lot of boos.

Only a few players noticed that Zhao Xi was always looking at the surrounding environment in the process of taking out and drinking medicine, and his body slowly twisted from side to side, and the blade of his right hand faintly revealed a red-golden light.

Loose on the outside and tight on the inside, it is the most appropriate description for him at the moment!

Suddenly, Zhao Xi's gaze froze, focusing on a certain position in the right direction, he suddenly threw down the empty medicine bottle, and his left hand reached down and instantly pulled out the whirling flying axe inserted in his waist, and threw it with all his strength in the direction of his eyes with lightning speed!

Burst!

The little axe of the cold light whistled and flew a distance of more than a dozen paces, and the slash flew back upside down somewhere-

97!

With the flight of a damage number, Momo's figure was revealed, and the leather armor on her front chest was pulled apart, and a little blood oozed out of it, which was shocking to look at.

The female thief's cold eyes revealed a hint of surprise, obviously surprised by Zhao Xi's divine axe.

In the stands, exclamations abounded!

"Well done!"

A certain thief who had just tasted the sweetness and now made a bet on Zhao Xi jumped with excitement.

In the previous duel between Zhao Xi and Cheng Jin, he earned more than a dozen gold coins, and this time there were more than ten times more audiences, if Zhao Xi can win again, maybe he can earn hundreds of gold coins!

Countless vicious eyes immediately swept over from the side, and the thief sneered and quickly sat down, although it was said that the use of force was not allowed in the stands, but it was not good to provoke the anger of the public.

However, the thief was also secretly strange in his heart - how did Zhao Xi know the exact location of the peach? Could it be some special skill, or the ability of an unpredictable prophet?

In fact, Zhao Xi has no special skills, let alone the ability of unpredictable prophets, he is just careful enough to observe and be thoughtful.

The arena where the two duel is a very ordinary small plain terrain, the ground is covered with two or three inches of green grass, and Momoyuki's sneaking perfectly hides her figure, but unless she is motionless, she will inevitably leave a trail on the grass when she moves.

Zhao Xi judged the opponent's position by observing the grass on the ground around him, this trick is worthless, and it's not that no one knows, it's just that Momo's sneaking speed is very fast, knowing her location is one thing, but being able to hit is another.

This is where Zhao Xi's ability lies, if it is other paladins, even if he sees the direction of the opponent, he can only rush up and slash directly, and it is impossible for any thief to stay in place stupidly and wait to be cut.

A beautiful throwing axe not only knocked out more than one-third of Momo's HP, but also knocked her out of a stealth state, Zhao Xi's counterattack can be described as impeccable!

"Holy! Paladins can still play like this! ”

"What kind of weapon is he using? How can you still fly back upside down? ”

"It's like a hand axe, but the hand axe can't fly back if you throw it out!"

"Did you see it, his judgment is very accurate, and the position of the attack has been calculated!"

"It's a bit shameless, but I like it!"

The players in the arena audience and in the online game forum couldn't help but talk about it, even if it was the side that supported the death of Tao, they had to admit Zhao Xi's strength.

However, they still firmly believe that the final victory must belong to the peach.

Zhao Xi just held the small axe that flew back, and Tao Zhixiao raised his dagger and pounced on him, the action was so fast, like a female leopard pounced on her prey, her posture was beautiful but extremely dangerous!

Zhao Xi's expression remained unchanged, the whirling flying axe disappeared without a trace in his palm in an instant, and his left hand fell down and grabbed the bloodthirsty battle shield inserted on the ground, and a powerful shield hit slammed towards the opponent.

The battle shield roared with the wind, but it missed the target.

At the moment when he was about to collide, Momono suddenly froze.

She used the tip of her left combat boot as a support, and made a perfect turning action, which instantly went around the right rear of Zhao Xi, and the dagger in her hand stabbed the latter's back silently.

Backstab! ――
