readx; Difficulties and opportunities, these are two topics that are difficult to explain clearly, usually people say that when difficulties occur, they are often accompanied by opportunities, and it is up to you whether you can seize them. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Whenever Erwin hears this sentence, there will always be a guy who beats all those guys who stand and talk without backache and then say, difficulties may indeed be accompanied by opportunities, but how many people can survive the difficulties and seize the opportunities at the same time? More often than not, the victims simply do not see the opportunities hidden behind the difficulties, let alone seize them.

In many cases, a predicament is a predicament, that is, that is, you want to die, you want to despair, you have no way out, and there is no chance at all.

There is not even hope, so what opportunity is there to talk about.

Erwin doesn't know if he is a dilemma and an opportunity after meeting Osmond, the theoretical dilemma is Osmond's strong strength, and the opportunity is the reward after defeating him, such as equipment or experience points or something, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Erwin can only see his own predicament, but he can't see the opportunity, maybe it's a mirror, like a mirage, obviously things are there, but no matter how hard you try, you can't always grasp it exactly.

Osmond probably already knew that Erwin was ready, and he didn't care where Susan was hiding and eyeing him.

"So, let's start the fight, and let me see your efforts and see if you have what it takes to turn a difficult situation into an opportunity." Osmond said lightly, Rex's longsword fell on the snow in front of him, but Osmond didn't look down on such a weapon at all, he stretched out his hand, and those iconic black mist began to appear in the palm of his hand, and then quickly condensed a pitch-black long sword in the palm of his hand.

The black sword was a long cut more than the normal longsword, similar to Erwin's iron sword, the black sword had a trace of blood-red lines like vines, and the shape of the gauntlet was like two forked leaves, and the tail end behind the gauntlet was a black rose.

A very peculiar weapon, Erwin recognized at a glance, the name of this sword is called the Black Rose Blade, and it is a treasure-level weapon exclusive to Osmond.

Phantasm-level weapons are even higher than the Excellence level, and Elwin's Iron Slashing Sword is the Excellence level, with very good attribute effects, and it is also strong and durable enough.

But the Noble Phantasm level weapons are different, the Noble Phantasm not only has excellent attribute effects, but also has the same amazing ability as a spell, and each Noble Phantasm has a real name, and the real name will only be known to the user.

In the case of the Noble Phantasm without unsealing its real name, it is probably about the same as the excellent level in the initial battle, relying on excellent attribute effects, how Elwin's iron sword, with a sharp and armor-piercing effect, can cut a lot of sophisticated weapons and armor.

And once the Noble Phantasm is unsealed with its real name, it means that this Noble Phantasm has been able to use its unique ability, Erwin remembers that his Iron Chopping Sword also has a weapon advanced to the Noble Phantasm, called the Broken Steel Sword, and the ability after unsealing the real name is to cut off, cut off everything.

Although Erwin has not fought Osmond in the game, judging from the information gathered on the game forum, he is still very familiar with his Black Rose Blade's abilities.

Seeing that Osmond had summoned all the Black Rose Blades, Erwin knew that the great demon in front of him was finally starting to get serious, and he had no way to escape or avoid the battle, so he could only face it head-on.

Holding the iron sword in both hands, Erwin activated the iron sword technique, although he did not know the extent of Osmond's strength now, whether it was higher than expected or lower than expected, he knew very well that he could not keep his hands like he did against other enemies at other times, otherwise he would definitely be the last to die.

"Come on, Osmond, let me see how powerful you are as a hero of the Rose Dynasty." Erwin shouted.

"Good courage young man, I will repay you with all my strength, I'm going to start, pay attention." Osmond whispered

Then, he gently swung the Black Rose Blade in his hand backwards, and the whole person disappeared from place in an instant.

No, it wasn't that he disappeared, but that his speed was so fast that it was hard to see with the naked eye, and the moment he disappeared, a large crater exploded on the ground like an explosion, and countless snows were blown into the sky along with the dirt.

The air resounded with a blast after the speed of sound had been breached, and the sound waves that exploded left deep arcs on the snow on the ground.

Erwin couldn't see Osmond's movements at all, but with his combat experience and intuition, the moment Osmond disappeared, Erwin immediately pulled the iron sword and blocked it in front of him.

There was a loud bang, and as soon as Erwin blocked the iron sword in front of him, he felt an unimaginably huge force coming from the two arms holding the sword, and then his whole person was knocked out of place, as if thrown, and flew upwards into the sky.

The harsh wind surged into his ears, Erwin had nowhere to borrow his strength in mid-air, his body was in a strange stiffness that could not move, the force poured from his two arms almost shattered his flesh and bones together, and the muscles of his body developed a sour scream, as if the rusty gears were desperately trying to turn.

When the body flew to the highest point, the inertia of the impact had not disappeared, Erwin heard the sound of sound waves exploding in front of him, he couldn't see the situation clearly, only saw a black thing teleporting around him, this was already dozens of meters in the air, Erwin knew that this was Osmond catching up, the stiffness of his body had not disappeared, and he couldn't use the power of his will to move his muscles at all.

whack

Erwin couldn't drive his body, he could only use his will to drive and release two skills at the last moment, and under the penetration of the system's power, his stiff arm jerked violently, blocking the iron sword forward.

There was another loud bang, as if a sonic bomb had been ignited at a height of tens of meters, and the diffuse sonic waves carried a lot of sparks that had escaped and disappeared.

Erwin's whole person seemed to have been hit by a hammer, and his inclined body immediately turned into a vertical fall, smashing to the ground from a height of dozens of meters.

The thick snow on the ground was able to counteract some of the impact, but this was a drop in the bucket for Erwin's current situation, his body was still full of stiffness and inertia under Osmond's second blow, and he was unable to make an effective block.

The invisible hammer smashed to the ground, smashing the ground into a large crater with a diameter of more than five meters, Erwin was in the middle of this deep pit, he was on the ground with his back, the force of the impact rushed through his back muscles, through the flesh and spine, and then affected his internal organs, the intense pressure on the internal organs immediately caused internal bleeding, and blood gushed out of his throat under the pressure of pressure.

Erwin spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his body on the ground bounced like a ball.

A gust of wind swept by, and Osmond landed in the pit, just as Elwin's body bounced, and he swung the Black Rose Blade again, landing on Elwin's body.

A huge clash of gold and iron rang out, and Erwin was once again knocked out of the air, his body rolled several times in mid-air, smashed into the ground and plowed into a deep pit, and then bounced again, and fell into the distant woods, crackling and crackling, and I don't know how many trees were broken.

In front of the last giant tree that two people hugged, Erwin finally adjusted his posture and stepped on the tree with one foot, and the inertia and force carried by his body directly burst and exploded the tree when he stepped on it, forming a hole the size of a human head.

With a snort, Erwin fell from the tree and almost fell to the ground, but he could only rely on the tree behind him to avoid falling.

He raised his head, not only his chin, but even the entire placket of his chest was already covered with blood, and the two arms holding the sword kept trembling, and the tiger's mouth on it had been cracked by shock.

"I've been deceived, this son of a bitch is definitely more than the second order." Erwin muttered to himself, and blood began to gush out of his mouth again, his body was already injured, and his internal organs were also quite damaged.

"In terms of strength, speed, and reflexes, I am absolutely weak, and I can't see my movements clearly, I can resist three consecutive blows, which is really terrifying combat experience and intuition."

Outside the woods, Osmond couldn't help but sigh, his three consecutive blows just now, each blow was able to kill a strong person who had entered the first order of the rank gate, and with a strength like Rex, it was impossible to accept even one blow. And Erwin's strength obviously did not surpass the second order, but he was able to receive three of his blows in a row, and he was not seriously injured.

However, Osmond will never show mercy to his subordinates, he rushed out of the woods again, and the whole person immediately disappeared from the same place, so fast that it was difficult to see clearly with the naked eye, and rushed directly into the woods.

When he swept the ordinary distance, Osmond had already seen Erwin's figure still leaning against the tree, and the black rose blade in his hand swung forward, and the black blade immediately threw out a fan-shaped black sword light.

At this moment, there was a sudden screeching sound from outside the woods, and dozens of bows and arrows came in backwards from outside the woods, almost every one of them deftly avoided Shuyu, and all of them shot in front of Osmond.

"No way, that little girl will definitely not see me, no, this is a predetermined shot."

Osmond was shocked, with his current speed, let alone an ordinary person, even Erwin would never be able to see his movements clearly, and that female archer would be even more impossible.

It's just that what Osmond doesn't know is that Susan's eyesight far surpasses Erwin's, even if he turns on his probing ability, he can't compare to it, and more importantly, Susan is not only excellent in eyesight, but also has excellent dynamic vision, so he can vaguely capture some of Osmond's afterimages.

If that were the case, Susan wouldn't pose much of a threat to Osmond, but in addition to Susan's astonishing eyesight, her archery skills were enough to ⊥ the best marksmen to feel inferior and ashamed, to the point where she could shoot arrows and predict the opponent's movements.

On Osmond's side, although his movements are fast, he will also sacrifice flexibility at the same time, and he will not be able to make any dexterous movements when moving, and it is difficult to change from a straight line to a change direction.

Therefore, in the face of so many bows and arrows coming towards the vital point, Osmond had to stop rushing forward, and waved the black rose blade in his hand, turning into an impenetrable black sword light, knocking all the bows and arrows that came one by one.

A hundred meters away, after shooting dozens of bows and arrows, Susan quickly took Osmond as the center point and began to run in an arc, like a female leopard jumping and moving in the woods.

Her feet jumped the ground, jumped high on a tree that grew horizontally, and then without looking, she opened her bow and shot it sideways, and the moment the bow and arrow were off the string, Susan had already jumped down from the tree, her body stretched out in mid-air, and she opened her bow and arrow again, and at the same time the bow and arrow were fired, she had already jumped to the ground, and her body rolled over a meadow on the snow, and when she got up again, she had already set up her bow and arrow, and then shot again.

Arrows and arrows went out as Susan ran, all of them deftly passing through the gaps in the trees, and then shooting at Osmond in a steady stream.

This scene almost frightened the well-informed Osmond, who almost thought that there were dozens of marksmen hiding in the woods, and that he was so exhausted by the unused bow and arrow that Elwin, who was standing not far away under the trees, did not have time to solve it.

Fortunately, when Bluestone City knew that Erwin was planning to find Rex, Susan had already purchased four bags of bows and arrows, close to two hundred, and half of the two hundred bows and arrows had been shot by her in just a few moments.

With such a high-intensity shooting, even if Susan's physical fitness was far beyond that of ordinary people, a piece of metal wrench on her finger had broken in half, and blood began to ooze from the finger that pulled the arrow string, but she still had no intention of stopping.

With a brush, Susan, who was running, stepped on a fallen tree, stopped her body suddenly, and quickly pulled the last two bows and arrows from the third, already empty quiver.

She did not shoot the two bows and arrows at the same time, but first shot one with eighty percent of the force, and when the bow and arrow just left the string, Susan's movements accelerated several times in an instant, and her face showed a look of pain, but her hands did not tremble in the slightest, and in half a blink of an eye, the second bow and arrow were shot out with all her might.

The second bow caught up with the first bow halfway through the flight, sprinting to a position just a few centimeters from the tail of the arrow and maintaining the same speed.

The two bows and arrows joined one after the other in a line and shot at Osmond, who was a hundred meters away.

Osmond's severed bow and arrows had fallen all over the ground, and he turned his head to see that the last bow shot was at the level of his line of sight, so that the bow and arrow would become a small, imperceptible spot in his eyes.

Only a very good archer can shoot such an arrow, Osmond can't help but be full of amazement and praise for that female archer, when he was still the Grand Duke of the Rose Dynasty before, in the army under his command, there are also many people who have cultivated archery to the point of mastery, but at such a young age as this girl, none of his archery skills can reach the same level as her.

Facing the sword that was almost shooting towards the middle of his eye, Osmond swung the Black Rose Blade in his hand upward, and he could see the speed and power of the bow at a glance, and the sword swung upwards just as it cut the bow and arrow in the middle.

And just as Osmond had planned, his Black Rose Blade swung upwards to form a slanting upward fan-shaped sword light, and then landed on the incoming bow and arrow, cutting it into two pieces.

This is the last bow and arrow.

When this thought came to Osmond's mind and thought it was correct, the real situation he saw from his eyes was seriously different from what he had believed.

The bow was followed by another bow and arrow.

Susan shot both arrows at the level of Osmond's eyesight, not intending to make the first one imperceptible, but using the first to conceal the second arrow that followed her.

"It can't be."

The thought came to Osmond's mind, his Black Rose Blade had just sliced the first bow upward, and before he could turn around, the second arrow had already passed between the two broken shafts and the black blade, and shot towards the unsuspecting Osmond.

The original target of this arrow was the middle of Osmond's eyes, and only in this way could he hide from his sight.

I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but when Osmond swung the Black Rose Blade to cut off the first bow and arrow, his body also changed slightly in accordance with the movement, and it was a little sideways to the side.

And it was such a small change that made the target of Susan's second bow and arrow become one of Osmond's eyes.

And then it shot through the eye with unmistakable accuracy.

Osmond let out a terrible scream, and the whole person was driven by the impact of the bow and arrow, and fell backwards on his back, slamming on the snow.

Erwin had just recovered from being hit by Osmond's three consecutive attacks, and his vertigo-dazed brain finally regained its composure, and he saw Osmond being knocked over by an arrow.

There were only two words left in his mind.

"Groove"
