Chapter 9: The Flower and the Sword (II)
Lucius was at the forefront, approaching the enemy team first, while Nossein on the opposite side bore the brunt, and suddenly swords and swords intertwined between the two.
Alyssa leapfrogged past her brother and the swordsman and rushed towards Elise, who was trying to heal Bourne, while Cathy joined the assault from the flanks. However, Iri stood between them, his sword sideways in front of him, and he seemed confident in his defensive skills, calmly meeting the attacks of the two girls.
Rowan was dressed in armor and held a greatsword, and with a steady step, he was about to go to support Captain Lucius.
Jude, on the other hand, wandered behind the right side of the group, staring at the brown-haired young man in front of him, who clearly recognized him as an opponent. The boy stood firm, intending to fight quickly, and immediately recited the incantation: "Evo_falrem_acentus!"
The brilliant blue starball shot straight at the approaching Georgie with the boy's gesture, but the latter suddenly flicked sideways and managed to dodge the attack, slowing down only slightly, not even stopping.
Jude was a little surprised that his opponent would be able to dodge the spell, but after calming down and analyzing it, he realized that it was probably due to the distance that gave the target plenty of time to react. And this time the opponent was close enough, and the boy hurriedly recited the incantation of the Mystic Star Bullet again: "Evo_falrem......"
However, before Jude could finish the incantation, he suddenly realized that his opponent was not facing him. Georgie sped past the boy's side, slipping into his blind spot. It is true that it is not easy to concentrate on casting spells while keeping an eye on the opposite direction. Jude tried to turn around, but it was too late, he was kicked from behind, and he couldn't help but take two steps forward to stabilize his position.
At the same time, the laughter came from behind itself: "It's too slow!"
When danger approached, the boy had no time to turn around, so he quickly lay down and rolled on the spot, just in time to dodge the opponent's dagger thrust. Using his hands and feet together, Jude scrambled to his feet, clenched his long sword and slashed at it. However, at this time, the opponent's dagger had already attacked from the other side, and the young man had to retreat in a hurry.
With two weapons in his possession, both short and quick, Jude struggled to parry Jorge's successive attacks while quickly analyzing the form.
"Yo, mage. The young man kept his bow on the left and right to keep it suppressed, and he still had a lot of room to spare, not forgetting to taunt the young man, "I didn't think you would use a sword?"
Jude, who was tired of defending, naturally didn't have time to deal with George, and he was trying to find a gap to cast spells. However, while the opponent was attacking quickly, he was constantly adjusting his position, moving to his side or behind him, and the boy even turned a little dizzy, let alone had the opportunity to cast spells.
Jude, who was a beginner in swordsmanship, could only barely parry the attack, and it didn't take long for him to continue, revealing a flaw. And Qiao Qi, who has rich experience in actual combat and meticulous insight, naturally did not miss it, and immediately pressed the young man's long sword with a dagger, and then the short sword was across his neck.
The winner is already clear.
"Give up resistance, mage. Georgie motioned to the boy not to move so as not to get hurt, "You want to help this team win the championship. It's a dream. β
Jude followed George's line of sight and found Cathy in the corner of the field outside the circle, crouching there with her body in her arms, looking very uncomfortable. Eri, on the other hand, grabbed Alyssa and politely motioned for the girl to cooperate, trying to escort her beyond the borderline.
Seeing this, Lucius was anxious to support his sister, but was caught by the knife man because of his distraction. Nossein's long knife opened and closed, and three moves in a row forced the young man out of the circle.
Byrne had somehow gotten back on his feet, and seemed to have regained his strength under Elise's treatment, and at this time he was fighting Rowan, and the two were evenly matched. However, the rest of the Radiant Oath team members rushed to support the captain after settling their respective battles, and Rowan was clearly unable to defeat four with one.
"The outcome of the game has been decided. Qiao Qi sneered twice, "You guys really can't help themselves. It's ridiculous to think that I can defeat the 'Radiant Oath'. β
"Be honest. Back off. The youth pushed the subdued teenager and pushed him towards the edge of the field.
Jude had not yet reacted to the rapid change in the situation, how could they be on the verge of defeat when they had such an advantage at first? He was forced to retreat towards the border, unwilling to be out of the game, but he could not think of a strategy to turn the situation around.
He needed a spell that provided a safe environment for casting spells, and the spell had to be able to be cast instantaneously. At the moment of crisis, Jude calmed down and thought very clearly.
Suddenly, inspiration came to him.
At this point, Jude was almost on the edge line, and he would be out of the game if he took two steps back.
"It's over. Qiao Qi stared sarcastically at the boy, "Although you are a mage, you can't change anything. β
"Nope. Jude said suddenly, staring at the clearing in the distance and pausing at the same time, "It's not over yet...... Tel_falasοΌβ
A white light flashed in front of him, and in an instant, the boy was already standing not far behind Qiao Qi. Struggling to overcome the dizziness and discomfort in his brain, Jude quickly chanted the incantation: "Evo_falrem_acentus!"
The brilliant blue starball shot straight out with the boy's gesture, dragging the streamer and hitting Qiaoqi's back, causing him to rush forward with a stagger. The young man turned around and was about to fight back, but he found that he was already standing outside the circle, and the referee was looking at him in the distance, so he had no choice but to put away his weapon.
At the same time, enthusiastic cheers came from the audience, and people applauded the boy's Jedi counterattack.
"Pretty good, mage. Despite being out, Georgie still laughed at the boy, "But you lost this game." β
Hearing this, Jude turned around to find that Rowan was outnumbered and out of the game, and the four members of the "Radiant Oath" team were slowly walking towards him. Even though they were four against one, they were still very cautious, after all, they were dealing with a mage.
With little mana left and four to one in the arsenal, the boy realized that his chances of winning under normal circumstances were slim.
"Give up, mage. Byrne shouted, "You can't win." Recognize the situation and don't be stubborn. β
Jude looked around, the boundary line was not far behind him, his teammates at the edge of the field were looking at him, and the crowd at the top of the perimeter was also looking at him.
He is really very popular, and the young man is a little helpless at this time, but he has no intention of giving up.
On the contrary, he was already able to foresee his victory.
"No, Mr. Knight, and all of you of the Radiant Oath. Jude calmly glanced at the four people approaching side by side, from left to right, Norsain, Eric, Byrne, and Elise, "I think you may have overlooked something important. β
"You may not know it. But some miracles do exist. β
As he spoke, the boy took the silver pocket watch from the inside pocket of his coat. Flipping open the case, the time is displayed at 2:21 p.m.
Looking at the approaching opponents, Jude didn't hesitate to press the button.
