Arnold didn't dare to give Ian any chance to get close to him, so he attacked when Ian had to protect the girl. He knew that only at this moment could Ian be beaten passively, and once the girl behind him made a mistake, then he would have no limits, and he would undoubtedly put himself in a desperate situation of death.

Seeing the spear coming, Ian dodged, grabbed the girl behind him and jumped backwards. He was going to take the girl out of the encirclement first and ensure her safety. He came here to save people, and if he died in the end, then even if he could kill Arnold tonight, it would be pointless.

Due to the flow of sword intent, everything around him became slower and slower, but since Edith in his arms was just an ordinary person after all, her body could not withstand the sudden increase in speed, so Ian had to limit his speed so as not to accidentally hurt her.

Ian knew that he was no faster than the spear thrown by the other party, but he didn't want to dodge it. Although his backward leap, while taking Edith out of the encirclement, also brought himself into a situation where he could only be beaten passively. But this was a deliberate act on his part, he wanted to be far enough away from the other party's gaze, and then try some kind of ability that he had not used in actual combat.

The scarlet spear was once again swept away by Ian's sword, but this time, instead of spinning in the air, it disappeared and returned to Arnold's hand. This high-ranking man did not dare to leave any flaws in himself, he knew how fast Ian was. As long as he wants, he can put down the girl at any time, and the moment he has not had time to withdraw the spear, he will easily kill himself who has lost his weapon.

He was also waiting, waiting for Ian to jump far enough. And only then could he aim the tip of his gun at the maiden named Edith. At that time, as long as the other party is unwilling to give up on the girl, then he will be completely pinned down by the spear that must be hit, and he will be pulled into a dilemma, and he will have to come back with a burden to fight him.

Arnold knew that this method was extremely despicable, but he had no chance of winning a head-to-head battle, and only by doing so could he have the possibility of defeating the opponent.

Both men were silently calculating a safe distance. And at the moment when Ian was about to jump out of Earl Bell's mansion, Arnold turned the tip of the gun and targeted Edith in Ian's arms.

The scarlet spear stabbed out again with an incomparable needle, causing Edith, who was being held in Ian's arms, to have a huge palpitation.

His goal is me!

The girl realized this immediately.

However, just as she panicked, a low and gentle voice suddenly came into her ears: "Don't be afraid. The voice seemed to have a strange magical power, and in an instant, it smoothed the girl's uneasy mind, and she nodded slightly, feeling more peaceful than ever.

"Trust me. Ian suddenly stopped, let go of the girl in his arms, turned and slashed at the spear with a sword. In fact, just as Arnold was waiting for this opportunity, he was also waiting for this opportunity.

The moment he let go of Edith, the world in his eyes was instantly covered in gray. The spiral spear grew slower and slower in this world, until it was completely frozen in the void. All consciousness was mobilized, completely locked on the frozen spear, and projected every line and detail on the body of the spear into his mind little by little.

In the near-static world, Ian slowly raised the sword in his hand at an extremely slow pace, and slashed towards the body of the spear with a seemingly powerless movement as the structure of the entire spear was thoroughly engraved into his mind.

Admittedly, what Ian had in his hand was an ordinary iron longsword. In the previous battle, if he hadn't used his sword intent to protect the sword body and always pay attention to the position of the opponent's spear, then such an "inferior product" would undoubtedly shatter without suspense the moment it touched the spear condensed by the mental image. But since Ian has truly become a Sage, even if he has a wooden sword in his hand, he will have the possibility of conceptually cutting off the mental image.

That's why Ian wants to take a gamble.

It's just that what he is betting on is not whether he can cut off this gun, but betting that this gun will not be able to be recovered before hitting the target!

When the target of the spear is locked on him, once the spear comes into contact with the sword in his hand, the mental image of the spear has been achieved, and once the opponent finds that the spear may be cut off, the opponent will immediately withdraw the spear. And when the target is no longer locked on to him, if the spear can't be retracted before the hit, then even if the other party finds that his spear is damaged, or even cut off, I'm afraid there is nothing he can do, and he can only watch.

And after that, even Arnold could have condensed a spear with his mind again. Taking advantage of this interval, taking advantage of the distance that had been pulled away before, he had already fled away with Edith.

At this moment, a faint groan came from the gray-white long sword. An indescribable wisp of power suddenly appeared on this ordinary iron long sword, making anyone who saw this sword involuntarily feel as if it could cut everything. Naturally, Arnold saw the same thing. And because of this, a huge sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart, as if an unimaginable nightmare would occur under this sword.

However, there was nothing he could do, and he could not withdraw the spear until he was sure to achieve it, otherwise he would be denying his own mental image. At this moment, he could only watch as the sword sliced along the established trajectory towards the middle of the spear.

There was no sound, no concussion, and the blade of the sword, which was not very sharp, was like cutting into a piece of tofu, and it was so easy to slash through.

The world returned to normal, and the frozen spear was eerily split in two in the air. At the same time, in the distance, Arnold, who was standing on the roof, suddenly felt that a piece of his soul had been cut off alive, and suddenly let out a heart-rending scream!

Ian froze in place, unconscious. An inexplicable feeling suddenly appeared in his heart, as if he had just slashed with his long sword, and it was not just the spear in front of him that he had cut off. He raised his eyes to look at Arnold, who was still holding his head and wailing after rolling off the roof in the distance, and there was a faint realization in his heart.

"Do you mean ......?"

The thought of a possibility, he felt a thrill. At this moment, a sudden feeling of dizziness also came up. He didn't dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly picked up Edith, who was also standing, and took the opportunity to jump out of Count Bell's mansion and run away into the distance. (To be continued.) )
