Chapter 209: The Hammer of Judgment
The vice captain's idea was good, but Hu Yu denied his proposal.
"However, I remember that this kind of scroll has to be channeled at close range to take effect, right? He's moving slowly now, but if we can't get close to him, how can we use this magic on him? โ
"That's right......" the magistrate nodded.
"My advice is to give me the scroll, and I'll go and clean him up."
"You?"
The two of them turned their heads to look at Hu Yu in unison, but saw Hu Yu say seriously: "There is no guarantee of success, but I think you can try." โ
This kind of scroll was not a rare thing, so the magistrate directly handed it over to Hu Yu. At the end, he took out his staff and said, "Then be careful, I'll help you bless a defensive rune." โ
"No need, if I can, what I need is a speed rune."
Draw the sword, crush the scroll, and the inquisitor's blessing rune has been blessed. The sword in his hand was a newly purchased shop item by Arya, and although it was not as good as the sword obtained in the mission, it also began to emit a dazzling golden light after blessing the 'Judgment Hammer'. Just after the battle in the center of the courtyard, Hu Yu began to slowly approach the battlefield; Just after the mysterious knight used the 'Battle Spirit Explosion' to force back several knights around him, Hu Yu's figure suddenly blurred and disappeared in place.
Sensing the danger, the mysterious knight instinctively raised his arm and blocked Hu Yu's sword with his arm; With a flash of golden light, the power of the 'Hammer of Judgment' burst out, but the mysterious knight was unscathed, only a few steps back.
This is 'phase shifting' - this is a skill that killers can only learn, but with the help of the system. It's not a big problem for Hu Yu. Just finished that task. Hu Yu was not able to use this skill yet; But now you have an advanced class. It is also blessed with a speed rune, so there is no problem in using it.
"It's you!"
The mysterious knight was caught off guard and hit directly by the 'Hammer of Judgment', and took several steps back to turn around before he could see who it was. However, Hu Yu had no intention of stopping and chatting with him slowly, and now that he was standing up, Hu Yu did not intend to let him go.
Taking advantage of the time for him to react, Hu Yu slashed over with another 'Primary Charge Slash'. With the help of the 'Hammer of Judgment'. Although Hu Yu couldn't emit any sword qi anymore, the destructive power on the sword also increased exponentially. The primary charged slash was already powerful, and with the effect of increasing strength, a sword knocked the mysterious knight's barren giant sword to the side, and then Hu Yu struck a 'fatal blow', and the golden long sword swept into the mysterious knight's abdomen.
Just like in the previous battle, the mysterious knight was still uninjured and was sent straight out in a strange trajectory. Hu Yu didn't stop and followed closely. As a golden light rose into the sky, Hu Yu caught up with the mysterious knight who was sent out with a move, 'Ascending Dragon Slash'. Started a combo in the air.
The first is the most basic warrior class 'Stabbing', where the magic stuck to the blade completely throws the mysterious knight off balance, and then uses the inertia of the previous move. A set of 'Whirlwind Slashes' was like a meat grinder, bringing a splash of blood to the mysterious knight's body. This was the first time he had been injured since this battle, and after losing his balance, the magic defense on the mysterious knight's body was also relaxed, and he was hit by Hu Yu in the air, which directly broke through his defense.
And Hu Yu finally figured out the state of this guy.
This mysterious knight is certainly very powerful; But being able to survive the siege of so many people still made Hu Yu a little suspicious. After perceiving that familiar magic fluctuation, Hu Yu thought of himself a few days ago - when he had the 'Shadow Curse' on his body, he was also carrying such a magic fluctuation.
The 'Shadow Curse' was only one of the twelve trials of the Cursed Dragon, and the state of this knight's appearance reminded him of another curse, the 'Silt Curse'. This curse greatly reduces the player's speed - this was the initial premise, after which some players died in the dungeon due to the sudden appearance of the curse. In a tense battle, sometimes a mistake in position can lead to the destruction of the group, not to mention this two-day curse. In order to solve this problem, the official added another attribute: "Physical resistance is increased by 30% when cursed." โ
Because of this change, although the player's speed will still be reduced when cursed, at least it will not be killed immediately. Many players have also noticed the specific use of this status effect - physical resistance is a statistic, which is especially huge for warrior players; Some people even go out of their way to put off the curse event until the next day to solve it, just to get a few more difficult dungeons while 'enjoying' the curse effect.
Of course, this is all off topic. The knight in front of him, while his movement speed has dropped significantly, the blocking effect is also very bad, and even floating in the air, the trajectory has become extremely strange - as if he is slowing down the camera. After seeing this situation, Hu Yu basically confirmed that this knight was in this state right now.
Why did he have this curse effect Hu Yu didn't know, but for Hu Yu, the opportunity in front of him was obviously in his favor. The magic of the 'Hammer of Judgment' is a very effective magic against monsters with high physical resistance, and this is the reason why Hu Yu volunteered to participate in the battle. Taking advantage of a sneak attack, Hu Yu quickly picked him into the air.
The horizontal and vertical swords slashed, and the golden lightsaber drew a cross in the air. This is a rare skill that Hu Yu obtained in his previous mission, 'Cross Slash', and after the blood flashes, the mysterious knight falls downward. Generally speaking, if a person is slashed with a sword in mid-air, it is often difficult to catch up with the second sword; However, due to the effect of the 'Silt Curse', the mysterious knight's descent trajectory is very slow. Hu Yu was also not polite, brandishing a long sword with golden light, and several sword lights slashed at his body.
Just as the opponent's stiffness time in a fighting game has been doubled, this set of combos Hu Yu is extremely happy. Originally, Hu Yu's sense of balance was not very outstanding, and it was difficult to use a warrior's skills to perform aerial combos even in the game; However, with such a slow-motion sandbag practice, Hu Yu not only did not make any mistakes, but directly succeeded in inflicting heavy damage on the enemy.
The many masters below were stunned by the dazzling golden sword light in mid-air. Many of them were battle-hardened warriors, but they didn't know that there was such a special state as the 'Muddy Curse', and in their opinion, Hu Yu's combos were simply terrifying, and they were so surprised that they forgot to provide support for a while. It wasn't until Hu Yu's 'Earth Rift Slash', enhanced by the 'Hammer of Judgment', ended the combo that they could be considered to react. There was no ground in mid-air, and Hu Yu couldn't send out sword qi, and the 'Earth Split' was like a heavy hammer, smashing the mysterious knight directly back to the ground.
In the dust, the mysterious knight wolf bรจi got up, but a large amount of chaotic sword qi and magic flew over, and he hurriedly raised his arm armor to block. Turning his head, he saw the barren greatsword that had been knocked down not far away, and the mysterious knight reached out to grab it. However, at this moment, a golden sword light fell from the sky, directly cutting off his outstretched arm.
"Uh-huh-"
The mysterious knight fell screaming, and at the same time, the knights of the church had seven or eight weapons around his neck. Hu Yu leaned down, calmly collecting experience on him, and asked:
"How does it feel?"
"I'm going to ...... I'll kill you! The knight's eyes were full of horror and anger, "It's all your fault, you ruined my ......"
Hu Yu shook his head, and had no intention of continuing to fight. The experience had been collected, Hu Yu put away the pendant and walked to the other side.
His task was accomplished, and although the church people still had something to do, it was enough for him to do so. The main quest has been updated to 'Collect the reward from the head of the church', and Hu Yu did not delay and directly found the Knight Leader.
"Your name is Hu Yu, right? What a strange name. The Knight Commander was full of praise for Hu Yu's expression just now, and immediately said to Hu Yu, "Your swordsmanship is amazing, for so many years, I never thought that we humans could fight in the sky without the help of flying magic or mounts. โ
"It's just an accident,......" Hu Yu waved his hand modestly, "By the way, I caught a trace of the magic fluctuations of the cursed dragon from him, and I think he was cursed too." โ
"Cursed?"
"Probably that 'mud curse'." Hu Yu didn't hide it, and said directly, "The battle just now took advantage of this curse, if it were you, you should be able to do better than me." โ
"No wonder...... I've only heard a few legends," dawned the Captain, "how did you recognize it?" โ
"The characteristics should be obvious, right?" Hu Yu scratched his head.
"You otherworldly people are really too knowledgeable." The head of the knight group patted Hu Yu on the shoulder appreciatively, "How about it, do you want to join our Holy Sword Knights?" โ
"Uh...... I just want to get the 'Otherworldly Gate'. Hu Yu said, and added, "It's already been said." โ
"Haha, don't worry," the Grand Knight Commander laughed, "I've heard about this too, and I'll ask the Bishop to give you a reward when I get back, how about it?" (To be continued......)
