Chapter 157: Strength and Skill

Isenus had the intention of leaving these monsters for little Paul to practice, but these three monsters had no idea of staying for long.

The werewolf led by the leader suddenly exerted force in his legs, and was about to jump off the roof with a bounce, but was blocked by an invisible wall.

"Kill this child, and I'll let you go. Isenus said lazily.

The werewolf touched the invisible wall and questioned, "Why should I trust you?"

Esenus shrugged, "If you find it troublesome, I can kill you now." ”

The werewolf swallowed. From the instinct of the dark creature half-beast, he felt that Isenus was not lying, at least the second half of the sentence was true.

Compared to the werewolf's apprehension, little Paul is a head bigger than two, Isenas doesn't really want him dead, right?

He touched the air behind him, and the invisible wall also stood behind him.

"Oh yes, that auxiliary device on you is a bit too much, I'll keep it for you for a while. ”

After saying that, the small bag that little Paul had been carrying behind him fell off his body and flew to Isennas's hand in a leisurely manner.

Now I don't even have a chance to cheat!

Little Paul looked at Esenas angrily, but was pushed by an invisible force.

"Don't get distracted, it's going to die, think about everything you've learned before. ”

Little Paul touched the striped clothes on the back of his waist and focused on the fight.

It wasn't the werewolf who just made the move, but the mantis demon.

This monster is extremely fast, except for Isenas present, the rest of the people and two demons can only see a black shadow with a cold light, if it weren't for Isenas suddenly controlling the air and pushing little Paul, he would have been two corpses by now.

The mantis demon touched a pair of sickle claws twice in front of him, and said, "That werewolf over there, if you want to do it quickly, this little ghost is not simple." ”

The mantis demon's move scared the werewolf and scolded him for being a brainless thing.

The attitude of Isenus to hone the kid in front of him is already obvious, if he is really killed, it will be a place to die.

But the mantis demon didn't know if he didn't understand the meaning of Esenas or what the reason was, and he had already begun to move towards little Paul at a high frequency.

Little Paul pulled out his long sword, almost instinctively blocking the mantis demon's invisible attack with one sword after another, and for a moment, he even thought that the mantis demon had grown six pairs of claws, attacking him at the same time.

In just ten seconds, he had received at least forty or fifty attacks.

Finally, little Paul seized the opportunity and seized an attack with a slight difference in the power in his hand, the long sword in his hand was deflected and folded, and the sword body was attached to the claws of the mantis demon, firmly glued to it, forming a stalemate.

After two seconds of fighting, little Paul was keenly aware that the power of the mantis demon was not as great as he imagined, which was completely inconsistent with the experience he had learned from Isenas in terms of speed, strength, and quality.

His eyes crossed the blade of the sword and looked at the mantis demon.

The mantis demon's body was distinct, not at all as smooth and full as the werewolf next to him, and little Paul's heart moved, recalling the common creatures that Esenus had asked him to recite.

In that book, in addition to focusing on the body structure and movement characteristics of the praying mantis, the eyes of the praying mantis are also introduced.

He focused his gaze on the mantis demon's somewhat transparent eyes. As soon as the eyes of the two made contact, little Paul trembled, and the long sword in his hand involuntarily retreated a little.

These eyes were pitch black, without the slightest white, and seemed to be staring into little Paul's eyes all the time.

Sure enough, it's a compound eye.

This means that the mantis demon has an extremely wide field of vision and a strong ability to capture dynamic behavior, and the vast majority of sneak attacks seem to be childish acts of joking in front of the eyes.

It's no wonder that Isenus doesn't advise him to use Rogue-like skills, in a way, these eyes are the natural enemy of all thieves below the Sanctuary.

Little Paul, who figured this out, stretched his leg muscles slightly widened his trouser legs, straightened his waist, and pushed forward with both hands, pushing the mantis demon on the ground and smoothing it out for a while.

Little Paul, who was temporarily out of the predicament, did not dare to stay at all, and rolled sideways from the ground, dodging a puddle of black liquid flying down from the air.

As soon as the black liquid touched the roof, it made a soft "sizzle" sound, and in the blink of an eye, the roof was corroded into a small hollow.

If this is going to fall on him, how can he live? He doesn't think his body is much tougher than these bricks.

Little Paul looked at the dark creature in mid-air.

The fly-like thing flapped its small transparent wings vigorously, and there was still a trace of black liquid left on the corner of its mouth, and the attack just now came from its mouth.

Little Paul took a closer look at its eyes, which were also covered in black, and determined that they were another pair of compound eyes, which completely blocked his intention to use the most proficient thief skill.

While little Paul was distressed here, the werewolf was almost angry.

These two things! One is brainless! The other is really brainless!

In order to prevent these two simple-minded things from really missing and killing little Paul, the werewolf decided to take matters into his own hands and dominate the situation of the battle.

"Click. ”

There was a cracking sound from the roof, and the werewolf rushed up at a speed that was fast but acceptable to little Paul, and grabbed it with a diagonal claw.

Little Paul, who had just caught his breath, jumped up from the ground, and blocked the werewolf's claw blow with a backhand sword that was also diagonal.

The mantis demon took the opportunity to cut through the shadows behind the werewolf and slashed at little Paul's legs with a pair of scythes.

The werewolf's eyes widened and he looked anxious.

Little Paul grabbed the moment when the werewolf seemed to be in a daze, freed his left hand, grabbed the werewolf's outstretched paw, and jumped over the werewolf's back with a light flip, while being in the air, the long sword in his right hand was handed out, straight to the werewolf's neck.

Although the werewolf was merciful, he couldn't even cope with this attack, and he lunged forward, dodging the blow while crushing the mantis demon under him.

The mantis demon twisted and struggled under the werewolf's body, but because of the structure of the body's arthropods, it couldn't bend well, and it couldn't touch the werewolf at all.

Little Paul dodged a puddle of black water from a fly in the air, and looked thoughtfully at the two dark creatures that had fallen.

At that moment, Isenus suddenly spoke.

"When Ente was young, he was not known for his strength, on the contrary, his armorless swordsmanship happened to be synonymous with skill, but after Ente entered the Sanctuary and his strength increased greatly, he abandoned this swordsmanship that combined mathematics and science. ”

It's impossible for Esenus to say something casually, there must be some meaning in that sentence!

Little Paul's eyes lit up, and he thought about the deep meaning of Isennas's words.

"Ah, don't get excited, I'm just talking about it casually. ”

Suddenly, little Paul's eyes went dark, and he shouldn't have any illusions about this goods.

But Isennas's words still worked more or less, and little Paul's attack involuntarily brought a little trace of unarmored swordsmanship.

The speed that the mantis demon was proud of suddenly became timid in front of this swordsmanship that made up for its own shortcomings with skill.

Little Paul seemed to have expected every move he took, and hit the weak point of his attack when he couldn't get any shots, so that his movements could not be smoothly connected, and his attack speed was greatly reduced.

The praying mantis demon fire started from his heart, and scolded loudly: "That werewolf! Do you still want to hide a hand? I told you, this little ghost is not simple, if you drag it any longer, it is not a question of whether the man will let us go, but whether this little ghost will kill us all!"

The werewolf was shocked, this mantis demon had already seen through it!

"It's a while to live a little longer, and if you continue to be passive and slack off, we won't even be able to live for a while. ”

"I see. The werewolf gritted his teeth, forgot all concerns, stomped his legs on the ground, and smashed a circle of gravel at little Paul.

Little Paul put his sword on the werewolf's fist, but he felt a great force transmitted from the tip of the sword, and his body involuntarily flew backwards, slamming into the invisible wall.

"Wow. ”

Little Paul knelt on the ground, a mouthful of dark red blood spurting out of his mouth, and he saw that his internal organs had been damaged a little.

He supported his body with his sword, and with a bit of strength on the ground, he dodged the flying black liquid, and took the opportunity to quickly think about the scene in front of him.

The mantis demon is equal in speed and skill, and the werewolf has only brute strength, so it seems that Isenath's words are not meaningless.

"If I'm not mistaken, what Isenas really thinks isβ€”" Paul whispered, looking up and fixing his eyes on the werewolf of great power. "Is the breakthrough here?"

Little Paul pinched the hilt of his sword, and instead of retreating, he approached the werewolf.

The wolf has infinite manpower, and a pair of wolf claws are whirring, and while fighting with little Paul, he has also blocked the attack attempt of the mantis demon.

The mantis demon couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted, "You step down, I'll be the main attacker!"

But little Paul had already made a plan at this time, how could he let this werewolf go easily? Suddenly, he clinged to this werewolf even tighter.

Little Paul deliberately guided the range of the battle with the werewolf, and gradually forced the mantis demon into a corner, at this time, little Paul let out a soft shout, and his short body bypassed the werewolf and attacked, drilled out from behind his immobile left paw, and smashed the werewolf towards the mantis demon with a heavy blow.

The mantis demon had to take a step back to his side, dodging the werewolves that flew over.

Little Paul hid on the side of the werewolf and took the opportunity to attack the mantis demon.

With a wall behind him and a werewolf on his side, the space for the mantis demon to display his skills was greatly reduced for a while, and he reluctantly stabbed little Paul.

But there was a problem with this knife immediately, little Paul's knife was full of fighting energy, and the power was extremely great, which was not at all comparable to when he was fast with the mantis demon just now.

Under the mantis' unbelievable gaze, little by little, Paul's longsword overturned his scythe claws, tearing the murder weapons from his fragile arthropod joints, and then the blade took the claws and slashed at his head.

"Bang. ”

"Poof, grunt. ”

Little Paul's sword slashed into the wall of air, and the mantis's head rolled off his shoulder, a hint of horror in his dark eyes.

"Skill is the means to compensate for strength, but absolute power is the nemesis of skill, did I guess right? Isenus?" Paul Jr. gasped and looked at Isenus.

Isenus smiled slightly, applauded and praised: "Very good, worthy of the apprentice I taught." ”
