The Awakened are the ones who don't want to escape the nightmare. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
You...... Is that the case?
The silver-haired girl whispered this in her heart, staring at the mirror.
Stand up once, twice, anyone can do it.
But not everyone can get up every time.
I don't know what the person who created the dream thinks.
All in all...... He seems to think that it is necessary to screen out that part of the people who have courage and strength.
And there is a small test for this: defeat the Stone Guard.
Those who don't have the courage to trade death for experience will not be able to get out of the tower.
And if you are wise enough to enter the tower and explore, you will not be able to be reborn.
Through this kind of screening, it may be possible to select qualified awakens.
Otherwise...... How can the groggy awakened uncover the truth of this dream world?
He is worthy of being called the Lost and the Fallen.
Although it is not known whether everyone witnessed it was a stone statue guard.
But the door he guarded, undoubtedly important.
So...... What are you going to do, Awakened?
............
The man stood up in frustration, seemingly battered.
However, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind after a moment of silence and rushed up the stairs again.
Seemingly, he is not a coward.
You have to be more cautious...... Taking a deep breath, he reached out and walked into the fog after reaching out to the fog gate. The Petrified Guard still stays where they are, as if they're playing some stupid trap.
And as the man approached, he stood up as always, and quietly began to approach the man.
Just follow the way you fought last time...... The man muttered in his heart: It should be possible. I'm familiar with his tricks by now.
So...... Can't keep slipping up again!
So, full of nervousness, he began to take the initiative to approach the enemy, circled the enemy, and dodged the first triple slash.
The enemy's body is now bulky, and it has been exploited as it was last time. At that moment, the man quickly picked up his weapon and slammed it into the petrified guard's head.
The enemy leaned slightly to the side, only allowing it to hit the shoulder. And, again, there was a sudden whirling slash.
Isn't this the same as last time?
Jumping out of the way in a hurry, this time he barely dodged the attack and didn't dare to parry it with his sword.
Last time, the sword used to parry was broken.
So he didn't dare to take the risk.
In the face of such an enemy, it can be said that the loss of weapons is a dead end.
Just as he was thinking this, the enemy slowly turned around, as if intending to attack. The man hurriedly dodged and circled behind the enemy once more.
Encounter warriors in full armor...... Make the opponent faint or injured and incapacitated, and then use the weapon to attack the weak point of the armor connection. Or, use the armor-piercing dagger (armor-piercing cone) that many people carry on their bodies.
The more popular method is to stab the dagger directly into the armpit. Because of the general lack of armor protection under the armpits, it can pierce the heart of a knight who has fallen to the ground. It's cruel and lacks chivalry, but it's useful.
Practical is the best.
There is another trick, which is to take out a dagger and cut the major artery behind the opponent's ear, which is very vicious. It is said that mercenary groups in a certain place are commonly used.
So for the seasoned, plate armor can easily turn into a piece of waste paper.
Many warriors are particularly envious of those demon warriors. One of the reasons for this is that they can enchant weapons. Although enchantments tend to only last for a short period of time, they are enough to achieve a huge advantage.
For example, hardening enchantments, so that your own knives and guns can tear through the enemy's plate armor. In this way, the defensive advantage of heavy armor becomes very weak.
Moreover, it is easy to cut off the enemy's weapons.
It is said that someone will break the steel knight's steel chopping technique...... Such a guy is even more enviable, he is simply the god of death on the battlefield.
To his surprise, the petrified guards were ready for the situation. The enemy half-sidedly knocked over the man, and with his body gradually regaining his speed, he rushed towards him, picking up the sharp axe in his hand.
Oops! Subconsciously rolled to the side, the man got up and strode back, dodging the petrified guard's suddenly grabbed palm: Last time, it was
After being grabbed by this blow, he twisted his neck.
The speed of the other party has become faster and faster. However, just as he unleashed a series of attacks that could only make the man dodge, he suddenly stopped, and was solidly petrified in place.
Oh no, get out!
Hurriedly turned around and strode away, he finally got out of the effective killing range the moment before the fragments shattered. However, the splash of the debris still made his body hurt.
This time, he's in a slow pace again!
Just when the man thought so, the ruthless reality immediately shattered his assumption.
The petrified guard suddenly raised his axe and swung it into the air. At the same time, he heard a "click" from under his feet.
The moment the sound came, the man was sprayed by the petrified smoke coming from the ground, and instantly began to fall into petrification from his feet to his head. Seconds before the petrification was about to finish, the petrified guard threw a spinning axe and cut off the man's head.
In his vision, he could clearly see the statue formed by the condensation of his body standing motionless in place.
After "......" woke up again, the man was annoyed and stood up angrily.
What the hell, how is it that after triggering the active petrification, he will use a new move against me?!
Targeted petrified smoke and spinning axes...... If only you could dodge these two moves!
Normally, he wouldn't be able to fly an axe. Because then the weapon will be lost. Presumably, he would only use this trick to execute me when I started petrifying. In this case......
The man thought about it and began to have strange thoughts.
Although it shouldn't have much to do with the original train of thought, he just couldn't help thinking of such a thing.
...... What will happen if you die with the Petrified Guard?
The next time I come, I won't have to fight again.
All in all, he suppressed his annoyance as he made new progress in the battle, and focused on how to defeat the Petrified Guards.
He felt that there must be something new he hadn't seen before. So, maybe it's worth going over and seeing you again.
Depend on...... The thought of having to die again made him feel sick: no, no matter how he said it, he couldn't give up.
Otherwise, there will be no beginning and no tail!
If you want to break through this dilemma, you must take out the enemy.
Just as he hurried up the stairs, he suddenly saw something out of the corner of his eye.
That's the last time I've seen it.
The phantom was obviously taken aback when he saw the man. The man took a few steps back, his figure blurring even more.
Then the phantom vanished.
...... This is......
What's going on?
