Chapter 42: Holy Arts vs. Equipment
After dozens of sword battles, as if some kind of truce had been reached, Alexander and Alice each took a few steps back and confronted each other in a fierce manner.
The female knight's two-handed sword glowed with a silvery-white metallic sheen, while the guard's longsword was entwined with golden flames.
Everyone knew that this moment of peace was nothing more than the calm before the storm.
"Captain Alice," Alexander's calm voice broke the silence, "give up, you'll lose if you go on like this." ”
Despite his young age, the young guard's grasp of the battle situation was accurate: under the constant incursion of the holy fire, no matter how strong Alice's martial arts were, she would only be taken advantage of in vain.
But the knight Alice doesn't seem to think so.
"Guard," Alice said coldly, moving her sword-wielding wrist, "are you belittling a paladin in the service of the Holy Spirit?"
"No," replied Alexander, "I do not take lightly the Paladins in the service of the Holy Spirit—but you are nothing more than a Paladin in the service of the Pope. Now, I am the one who truly dedicates my loyalty to God and the Holy Spirit. ”
A touch of shame and anger crept up the female knight's face. With a coquettish squeak, she directly raised her sword and stabbed at Alexander!
- The female knight just now has been on the defensive passively, but under Alexander's provocation, she can no longer care about the dignity of the knight, and chooses to take the initiative to attack the other party!
The paladin's thrust was quite famous throughout the empire, and Alexander did not dare to slack off. In an instant, he judged that he was not fully sure that he could block the sword, so he hurriedly took two steps back, and the general dodged Alice's attack.
However, the paladin's spurt attack is only as strong as the back move - even if the enemy blocks or avoids the first stab, the experienced paladin can still slash, stab, pick and attack on the back link, and as long as the process is not interrupted, this group of top warriors can turn a spur into a never-ending sword move!
Provided, of course, "not to be interrupted".
In the past, Alexander would have been helpless with Alice's stabbing and slashing, and was eventually sliced into a shame by the continuous sword moves, but today, he has the holy sword "Eternal Fire" in his hand!
Just as Alexander dodged the first stab, the flame on his sword erupted and struck Alice in the shoulder: this attack was not a small harassment from the previous sword fight, but a full blow from the holy sword "Eternal Fire" to protect the master at a critical moment!
Under the violent impact of the holy fire, the slender body of the female knight was suddenly knocked out, and she spun in the air for several weeks before falling to the ground like a rag pocket.
In this case, let alone combos, it is questionable whether Alice can continue to fight.
"Captain Alice, you've lost. Alexander gasped.
- Dodging Alice's sword just now, the young guard has already used all his strength.
However, the female knight who fell to the ground did not want to throw in the towel. Holding the ground with her arms, she stood up tremblingly, her body shaking, and pointed her two-handed sword "White Warbler" back at Alexander:
"Guards, I said, don't despise a paladin!"
With Alice's roar, a scorching holy light burst out from the female knight's body!
Whether it was Alexander, who was playing against her, or Lu Chen and Gregory, who were watching the battle, they were all shocked.
They almost forgot that Alice was a powerful paladin: in addition to martial arts, paladins also had the ability to watch their own affairs!
A golden humanoid figure with six wings emerges from behind Alice. The giant phantom, four or five men tall, was suspended in mid-air, and looked very majestic, and like Alice, the phantom also held an illusory sword, meticulously imitating the movements of the female knight.
Holy Art: "Angel Calling"!
This rare top-notch holy art can summon the power of angels from heaven: the phantom behind Alice is none other than the divine Seraphim Seraphim, the concrete manifestation of the power of heaven on earth!
Facing the holy and majestic angelic phantom, facing the coercion belonging to the realm of the Holy Spirit, both Alexander and His Majesty the Pope have an impulse to bow and worship.
Of course, only Lu Daguanren, an atheist from the earth, doesn't care: What the hell is this, it's from Hollywood? The level of special effects is good!
"Guard, it's too late to step down. Alice and the angel behind her held the heavy sword in their hands and said to Alexander, "You can't withstand the power of the angel's slash." ”
At this moment, due to the driving holy magic to summon angels, the eyes of the female knight had turned a dazzling golden yellow: this made her whole majestic temperament add a layer of inviolable holiness.
A hint of fear finally surfaced in Alexander's fearless pupils.
The young guard looked up at the giant angelic phantom, swallowed softly, and then looked down at Alice again.
Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and keep your eyes open.
The fear in his eyes was gone, and he was still the same ardent and loyal believer in the Holy Spirit.
"Then attack!" Alexander snapped at Alice, "I said that I had decided to give everything for the Divine Envoy and the Holy Spirit!"
For a moment, Alice, who was clenching her silver teeth, seemed to be a little entangled, but then, she roared angrily and waved the two-handed sword "White Oriole" in her hand.
At this time, the female knight and Alexander were three or four meters apart, and the long sword in her hand could not touch the young guard at all;
But the phantom lightsaber in the hand of the angel phantom in the air is more than four meters long!
Imitating Alice's movements, the angel phantom slashed the long sword in his hand at Alexander, as fierce as a thunderbolt and like thunder!
With an earth-shattering explosion, it was as if the whole earth was trembling. The Heavenly Sword in the Phantom's hand hit the position where Alexander was standing, and the huge smoke and dust that rose up instantly engulfed the young guard's body, and the powerful wind pressure even almost knocked Lu Chen and His Majesty the Pope to the ground.
This is an epic sword that opens the world, and under the pressure of this heavenly power, there will be no survivors at all.
The huge angelic phantom maintained the posture of swinging the sword and slashing, standing still for a moment, and then exploded into countless fine pieces of golden dust, which disappeared in an instant.
This earth-shattering slash that cut off all the enmity in the world had exhausted all Alice's physical strength, so that she could no longer maintain the existence of the angelic phantom in the human world.
The female knight weakly clung to her two-handed sword, staring desperately at the gray and yellow smoke that covered the sky before her, and the fact that she had killed a church brother with her own hands made her face pale and burst into tears.
Then, something crept into the smoke.
The guard Alexander still stood there, his eyes resolute and fearless, his body unharmed. Around the young guard, a thin layer of light blue spherical shield slowly swirled, faithfully guarding its master, and indeed unmistakably blocking the sword of heaven.
Alexander clutched a silver sapphire necklace tightly in his hand.
According to legend, the epic guardian relic "Heart of the Sea" can unconditionally resist an attack once a day.
This time, the legend did not lie.
