063. Dual-weapon combat
The feeling of the projection is very strange, like an extra body that can be controlled freely, whether it is strength, muscle strength, or the scales on the snake's tail, there is no difference from the original.
The orc opposite Talos has a large plush lion head, wears a pair of leather armor and battle skirts, and is covered in exuberant hairs of the same color as his hair, brownish-yellow.
He was very muscular, his muscles bulging one by one, and he was full of explosive power.
Rakshasa Lionman!
Like the Naga, the Rakshasa Lionmen are a multi-armed race that can be given a second pair of arms after being promoted to the third rank.
The difference is that they have a maximum of four arms instead of Naga's six.
"Probably this is the magic of the Colosseum, arranging for me a multi-armed race. ”
Before Talos could sigh, the lion man roared, kicked his two anti-jointed feet on the ground, and rushed over with two scimitars in his hands.
"Just try out the dual-weapon combat skills I've been honing for a long time!"
Talos drew two Froststeel scimitars and swam hard, picking up speed, ready to slash at the lionman.
But the lionman didn't let him go, and when the distance between the two sides was less than nine feet, the orc roared and leaped to his feet, wielding his twin knives to lock on to Talos and slash!
Can't be hardwired!
The lionman was tall, nearly seven feet, enough to form a height difference in Talos, and with the power attached to the jump, the power of this slash burst out was at least three times that of the usual one!
Even if Talos succeeds in hard connection, he will be shocked and injured in his internal organs.
What's more, the body structure of the Naga snake tail determines that they are not like humans, who can use their feet to stabilize their balance and withstand the force that is crushed from above or diagonally.
More likely, Talos's snake tail will be crushed to the ground because he can't support the lionman's slashing power, and his massive size will be like a carp waiting to be slaughtered in front of the agile lionman.
At the critical moment, Talos twisted his tail and quickly moved to the side to avoid the orc's killer blow.
The twin knives slashed at the square paved with cyan ashlar stones, making a loud noise.
With a flick of the snake's tail, Talos took the opportunity to wrap itself around the lionman's legs, pulling it, and at the same time quickly retracting its tail and slashing it at the lionman's back.
The magic of the arena was immediately apparent, and the projected froststeel scimitar also maintained its sharp attributes, easily slicing through the leather armor of the lion man, leaving two wounds in his back.
Although there is no blood flowing out because of the projection, the rolled flesh still tells that the two knife wounds are not simple.
The lion man was wounded, roared in anger, fought back, and then rolled twice on the ground with an agility that was extremely inconsistent with his strong body, and immediately withdrew from the range of Talos's attack, allowing the latter's third knife to miss, and then pounced again, aiming at Talos's head with a knife and slashing at Naga's waist and abdomen.
"This lionman is much stronger than the lizardman you just met. ”
In the stands, Lux looked at Talos and the Lionman, who were both fighting with two knives, and said to the female knight.
In the Northern Orc Empire, the Rakshasa Lion is regarded as the most powerful warrior in the savannah, combining strength and agility.
Although the smallest of the three orcs that make up the Orc Empire (the other two are Minotaurs and Gnolls), the royal family has always been born among the Rakshasa Lionmen.
In one-on-one frontal combat, a lizardman who is good at fighting and grappling is far less threatening than a lionman.
Ruth didn't mind being compared like this at all, and she smiled and asked, "Do you think Talos will win?"
"Hmph, of course. ”
Lux was very annoyed when he learned that Mark had personally gone to the teleportation hall to meet Talos, and the other party's inadvertent behavior conveyed a very obvious message that he was inferior to Talos.
It took several days for the Human Bloodline Knight to collect information before he finally learned the basic information about Talos, such as the bloodline he had awakened, which was the famous Immortal Whale bloodline.
One of their best-known bloodline specialties is Tsunami Control, which unleashes a monstrous tsunami while imbuing every attack with tsunami-like power.
Reluctant to admit it, Lux knew that Talos would lose his first foray into the arena.
As the first person to enter the gladiatorial arena, he knew very well that the strength of the first opponent was almost the same as his own strength, and they were not so much challenging the Bloods and Lizardmen as they were challenging themselves.
Only by overcoming themselves and achieving victory, the opponents arranged by the gladiatorial arena will become stronger and stronger, and it will be their turn to experience the terrifying moment of being killed in battle, exercise their martial arts in life and death, and sharpen their blood.
As the two spoke, Talos finally seized an opportunity and slashed at the lionman's arm, and with a terrible howl, the opponent's scimitar fell to the ground.
Naga is no longer the spellcaster who stood far behind and prepared spells, but has begun to have a sense of battle, and as soon as the opportunity arises, he immediately grasps it tightly.
Just like the opportunity just now, if he hadn't slashed the lion man in the first place, I'm afraid it wouldn't have happened.
Chase while you win!
"The Lionman is about to lose. Ruth suddenly said with great certainty.
"Obvious things. Against an opponent who is proficient in dual-weapon combat, if you can't defend quickly enough, I'm afraid you'll be defeated quickly!"
Sure enough, after the lionman was injured in the arm and lost a weapon, the advantage of Naga's dual-weapon combat was fully realized.
From the beginning of the battle until now, both men have faced each other with two knives, and now, one of Talos' knives has been completely liberated.
This is a huge threat to the lionman!
Naga didn't dare to say that with two weapons, his combat power was twice that of a lion man with only one weapon, and he didn't dare to say that his attack at this time was equivalent to two people.
But for races that are good at multi-weapon combat, dual-weapon combat and single-weapon combat are two completely different states, and continuous strikes with dual weapons can explode extremely terrifying combat power in an instant!
Even the agile and agile lion man struggled to face the twin swords of Talos that came from different directions and attacked different parts.
He had to deal with two attacks in a very short period of time, which was a huge test of the Lionman's agility and reflexes.
If you don't react in time, or if you make a mistake, the price is more and more wounds on your body, and the lives that are quickly lost due to the accumulation of injuries.
In evenly matched battles, once one side gains the upper hand, it usually immediately snowballs and grows bigger.
Just like now, Talos is getting more and more brave with his dual weapons, and the lionman is moving more and more slowly due to his injuries, and the gap between the two sides is becoming more and more obvious.
When Talos swung his sword again, a huge head rose into the sky, gurgling and rolling on the ground.
The gladiatorial battle is over and victory is achieved.
