Chapter 161: Martial Arts Contest (Medium)
Otto's vertical split into sweeping surprise attack was his most proud method. He once defeated many powerful opponents with this move. In a recent crackdown on bandits, in the face of a powerful bandit leader, he suddenly resorted to this trick after a long time of hard fighting, and caught the opponent off guard, only to hit him hard, forcing the other party to abandon his subordinates and flee.
At that time, he didn't chase after him - the man's fighting spirit was cold, but it was full of vitality, and most importantly, it contained deep anger, which made him vaguely guess the identity of the other party. If you kill the opponent directly in the battle, forget it, since you didn't kill the opponent on the battlefield, then you don't have to be a villain in vain.
When the man died, it was the Thracians who benefited, and the Elantz family did not gain much.
And today, in the face of the famous "Dragon Slayer", he used his own trick at the beginning!
In the face of this violent and strange blow, the panda was also taken aback. But what he didn't expect was not Otto's moves, but Otto's speed.
This rough man has such a fast speed?!
Fortunately, Otto's trick was not unexpected - the vertical split and sweep was strange, but the panda had already guessed it as soon as he saw the movement of Otto's shoulder before he charged.
There is the so-called "last strike, first come, special flaws" Dugu Nine Swords in martial arts, of course, Panda will not have the kind of mysterious swordsmanship that will make the physics teacher lose his hair, but he can also anticipate the enemy to a certain extent.
Otto's tricks must be majestic on the battlefield, but they are still a bit rough when used in one-on-one competitions. At least in the face of an opponent like Panda, who has specialized in "skills" in the low-martial arts world for many years, it is really not delicate enough.
This is also the result of the disparity of power between the two worlds. On the earth, the gap between the strongest martial artists and ordinary martial artists is not very large, especially in the confrontation of weapons, the gap in physical fitness is narrowed even more, and a few young people with a little training are holding spears, which can force the top masters to keep retreating, which is unimaginable. Therefore, on the earth, martial artists pursue higher skills, but the two aspects of "faster and stronger" have reached a bottleneck, and there is no way to rise.
And in this world, the physical disparity between martial artists is so big that there is a world of difference. A strong warrior like Panda can fight against dozens of people with brute strength alone, and if those few strange men in the guild can even drag hundreds of strong men to stumble and climb in the tug-of-war competition by themselves. With such a large gap in physical fitness, the martial artists of this world naturally pursue more practical "fast" and "strong". As for ingenuity or something...... To be honest, in the face of faster and stronger opponents, ingenuity is really not very useful.
However, when there is no significant difference in speed and strength between each other, ingenuity is of great use.
Otto swept with an axe, and even if he couldn't hit the opponent, he could force the opponent to block with a sword - it was a great loss for light weapons to block heavy weapons, as long as the opponent suffered such a loss, the subsequent battle would be much more beneficial to him. Even if the opponent reacts extremely quickly and retreats to dodge this blow, he also has follow-up moves, which will definitely be like a rushing raging wave, and suppress the opponent in one go.
But he never expected that in the face of his own attack that was fierce enough to split an elite soldier in heavy armor in two, the panda not only did not retreat, but took a step forward.
It's just one step.
With this step, the distance between the two sides was much closer, and to make matters worse, Panda's left-handed sword was blocked by the hilt of Otto's axe gun.
Weapons like axes and guns are extremely powerful, but the power is concentrated in the front end, if the panda uses the sword to block the axe blade position, it is absolutely impossible to block it - if it can block heavy weapons like in anime works, there must be a huge gap in the strength of the two sides, how to fight and win, there is no need to entangle at all - but like this now, it only takes much less power.
Weapons such as long axes are essentially increased by the effect of levers, and those who have studied elementary physics know that in levers, the same power, the closer to the fulcrum, the greater the effect that can be exerted.
The panda sword in his left hand was squared, and his arm shook slightly, but he still steadily blocked Otto's blow. The sword in his right hand did not hesitate to go straight to the middle door and stab him in the chest.
Otto's martial arts are not low, when he saw the panda walking forward, he had roughly guessed the panda's moves, his body immediately turned to the side, and at the same time, with the help of the power of the collision of the axe gun and the left-handed sword, the tail of the gun just came back, knocking away the panda's right-handed sword.
But by this time, the distance between the two sides had shortened from the "three steps" that were most suitable for weapons such as axes and guns to the "one step" that was most suitable for swords.
At this distance, the power advantage of the axe gun cannot be brought into play, but the speed advantage of the dual swords can be fully exerted.
The panda smiled, and the twin swords continued to swing out like a violent wind, constantly attacking up and down, left and right, and from a distance, it seemed like a large white light blooming between the two, which was dizzying.
Otto, on the other hand, could only turn the long into the short, constantly blocking with his axe and spear, and avoiding being slashed by the sword as much as possible.
On the martial arts arena, the sound of clanging gold and iron sounded rapidly, one after another, and it sounded for almost half a minute.
This half minute was extremely difficult for Otto, he had nowhere to use his strength, he was completely suppressed by the panda in terms of moves, and even hit several swords in his body. Although the strength of each sword is not great in the panda's pursuit of speed, if it weren't for the heavy armor he was wearing, there must have been many more wounds on his body, and the blood would not stop.
But Otto didn't show any anger, and instead had a smile in his eyes.
He's found a chance to turn defeat into victory!
Although I don't know why, it is strange that the swordsmanship used by the dignified "Dragon Slayer" turned out to be a swordsmanship without armor.
There is a significant difference between armor-clad swordsmanship and non-armor-clad swordsmanship. The most important difference is that the former focuses on strength, while the latter doesn't care - for enemies wearing armor, attacks with insufficient strength are meaningless, but for enemies without armor, even a slight stroke of the blade can injure the opponent.
Among these two swordsmanship, Otto is of course familiar with armor swordsmanship, but for swordsmanship without armor, he can also do a little bit - in reality, it is impossible for you to wear armor all the time, and you will know some combat methods when you are not wearing armor, and you will be prepared.
So he had already seen that the panda's swordsmanship was clearly aimed at the enemy who did not wear armor.
Of course, this kind of swordsmanship is fast and ingenious enough, but in fact, in the face of himself wearing heavy armor, it will expose great flaws.
A smile flashed in his eyes, and he immediately changed his move, shrank his axe and gun, protecting his head and face, and didn't care that the panda's double swords were stabbing at his chest, and he stabbed him directly.
(Your sword can't hurt me, but you can't bear my shot!)
A shot was stabbed, and the corners of his mouth under the mask were already slightly upturned, revealing a smile with a chance of victory.
