Before Julian could reply, Borasso had already rushed to his side and slashed down Julian's right shoulder with a sword; Julian hurriedly flashed to the left, but before Julian could recover his combat state, Bolasso's round shield had already slapped from the left, and the defenseless Julian could only resist with both hands, only to hear a dull crash, Julian's arm collided with Borasso's round shield, and the power of the battle spirit and the impact of the round shield just counteracted, and the two of them each took a step back

But before Julian could stand firm, Borasso's sword stabbed diagonally from the side, although Julian was in a state of anger at this time, it did not mean that he had lost his mind - Julian clearly knew that even if he had burned his war spirit now, it was only a rudimentary war spirit, and under this process, if he used pure strength to fight head-on with sharp metal, he would only make himself lose arms and legs, so Julian chose to retreat for the time being, he dodged the opponent's sword from a tricky angle, and dodged to the opponent's left side and kicked it with the momentum

Bolasso sensed Julian's intentions and turned the shield to protect his flank, but Julian had expected him to do this, and halfway through the kick suddenly changed direction, and instead kicked at Borasso's calf, which was exposed outside the shield defense

Belch...... Borasso snorted in pain, he immediately realized that he had fallen into Julian's way, and with the blessing of the war spirit, Julian's side kick was very strong, if Borasso's calf was not wearing the knight's armor of the royal power, this blow might have broken his bones

However, before Borasso could recover from the pain, Julian's next wave of attack had arrived, and while Borasso had slightly lowered his shield due to the pain, Julian punched Borasso in the face

The surrounding palace guards only saw Borasso receive a heavy punch in the nose, his body staggered back, a few steps backwards, nosebleeds flying, and the guards let out a heckling sound

Damn, this guy has been trained as a martial artist, although the coaxing of the guards was unintentional, but it brought a deep sense of shame to Borasso as a knight, what he didn't expect was that this opponent's hand-to-hand combat ability was so strong, even if with the blessing of the war spirit, Julian's speed and strength were greatly increased, but without strict and professional hand-to-hand combat training, it was impossible for Julian, who was unarmed, to take advantage of a knight of the same level who was fully armed

In fact, although Julian is a very famous swordsmanship genius on Key Island, his hand-to-hand fighting ability is very average, although there is also hand-to-hand combat training in the knight's training course, but the knight is not a martial artist who fights simply with hand-to-hand after all, and when he was on Key Island, Julian's hand-to-hand fighting ability was by no means outstanding among his classmates in the same period

In fact, at the beginning, Julian didn't know why his hand-to-hand fighting ability suddenly increased so much, but at the moment when he threw his punch and kick, the scene of lending his body to Owen in an abandoned town that day suddenly reappeared in front of him, although Julian didn't know why Owen became a martial artist, but Owen used his body to fight Buyos and Shank every punch, Every move he made was recorded by Julian's own body, and from a certain point of view, Owen's soul possession was actually part of his martial arts cultivation to Julian, so when Julian fought to the death with his bare hands against the enemy, Owen's understanding and perception of hand-to-hand combat ability immediately flashed in Julian's mind and transformed into combat effectiveness

Thank you, Owen learned why his hand-to-hand combat skills had improved by leaps and bounds, and Julian couldn't help but look up and thank his friend who was no longer visible

Julian thought so much just now, in fact, it was just a turn of mind, at this time his opponent had already stood up, although Julian's attack injured Borasso, but did not knock him down, and after suffering two big losses in a row, Boraso calmed down, and he seriously summarized his advantages and enemy disadvantages in his heart, so Boraso changed his strategy

Borasso rushed towards Julian again, but this time he was no longer as impatient as before, seeing that he was not in a hurry to fight Julian, as if he was deliberately delaying the battle, Borasso understood that his advantage was that he was heavily armed and not seriously wounded, while the opponent's disadvantage was very obvious, Julian was not only unarmed, but Unarmed, and he was seriously wounded, and his blood was constantly flowing out, Borasso wanted to make Julian bleed more through a protracted war, and in the protracted war, his battle spirit could be fully burned, and when his war spirit burned to Julian's Cheng dù, then Julian would lose his only advantage

Marn, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, discovered Borasso's intentions, and he shouted at Borasso: "My captain has no armor, no weapons, and a duel with your bare hands, is this a knightly fair duel, if you still have a sense of knightly honor, take off your armor, throw away your weapons, and fight my captain with your bare hands."

Let me give up my advantage and engage in a hand-to-hand duel with an opponent with strong hand-to-hand combat ability, are you a fool to me--Porasso turned a deaf ear to Marn's shouts, as long as he can save His Majesty, Bolasso is a great hero of the empire, and can also be appreciated and reused by His Majesty, and has a glorious future;

Marn was in a hurry, and he couldn't help at all at this critical juncture

I saw that Boraso and Julian had fought for more than 20 rounds, and a faint war spirit had burned on Bolasso's body, and under the blessing of the war spirit, his strength and speed had increased significantly, and Julian's fists and feet not only did not touch Borasso's body again, but his own body was added a few new scars by Bolasso's sword

Seeing that Julian was about to fall, he was in danger......

At this critical juncture, several flames suddenly erupted in the crowd, mixed with a foul smell in the flames, and then white gas spread to every corner of the Imperial Garden, and the more than a hundred palace guards surrounding Julian and them fell into chaos

What happened, both of them in the battle were surprised by the sudden turn of events

Could it be the white phosphorus trap that Frey had just laid out Julian immediately thought of a possibility

However, this rare opportunity to escape, Julian would not let go, using the cover of white smoke, Julian got rid of Borasso's entanglement, he ran to Marn and the surviving subordinate by feeling, pulled them and pulled them in the white smoke, it was difficult to distinguish the direction, but with their previous proficiency in the topographical map of the palace, they moved in the general direction they had in mind

The staircase into the basement was somewhere in the garden, Julian knocked down one of the palace guards, picked up his weapon, and opened the way in front, Marne and the other warrior each carried a man on their backs, and followed closely behind, and sure enough, they found the staircase to enter the basement in the approximate direction, and if they could successfully enter the basement, they could reach the pre-determined retreat - the sewer, and leave the palace.
