Chapter 164: Defeat of the Enemy

Field came from a famous family, and even if he was an illegitimate child, he could still be regarded as an elite among the aristocracy.

The word elite is not a flattery for a person of noble status like him. Rather, the education he received did qualify him to call himself an elite.

Unlike those hillbillies who work hard and almost have to be born and die several times before they can touch a title, people like him already have wealth, power and status that ordinary people can hardly imagine almost as soon as they are born.

This is the biggest unfairness in the world, and it is precisely because of this unfairness that many people will have the illusion that these noble lords are not better than them in other aspects except for one background.

Yes, delusion. People who think this way are either ignorant or cynical. You must know that a person's level of effort determines only his upper limit, and a person's background environment is his lower limit.

Many times, and in many cases, some people put in countless efforts to just get to the starting line for others. In such a situation where you have just stood shoulder to shoulder with someone like this, you want to belittle the existence of your opponent, and seriously, this is definitely the most stupid thing to do.

Aristocrats also know how to work hard, and even say that their efforts are more efficient than ordinary people, and they will not take detours.

Natural resources determine that they will receive the best education, and this education almost means that while ordinary people struggle in the mud and crawl aimlessly with luck, they can gallop all the way to the clearest goal.

Unless it's those guys who can't hold up the wall by nature, ordinary people can only rely on luck and more effort to catch up with those nobles.

Field is not some mud that can't hold up the wall. Although he is not the top figure among the nobles, he is also a middle-class person. And under this premise, his ability is certainly not comparable to that of ordinary small nobles.

In addition to the advanced swordsmanship that only the head of the family and the heir of the King James can learn, he has also practiced many stunts that are treasured within the Black Thorn family. And don't forget, he is a powerful nobleman, an earl with a territory.

The wealth in the territory is enough to support his huge expenses, allowing him to get some props that ordinary people can't even think of.

Just like now, in the face of Hiko's counterattack. As he approached the edge of his sword like a viper, he vigorously rubbed his thumb together to pick up the ring he was wearing on his left index and middle fingers.

The green gem on the index finger ring shattered in an instant, and a thick green liquid shot towards Hiko, who was close at hand, like a sharp arrow. The topaz on the face of the middle finger ring turned into a translucent hexagonal barrier, firmly blocking the edge of Hiko's sword.

This is a spell ring made by alchemy, and it is a spell item that can only be used as a medium and price for a specific object. What Field has in his hands is a high-grade commodity that can instantly fire poison arrows and mana barriers. And as high-end goods, the price of wanting to use them is naturally expensive.

Each time you use it, you need to consume an emerald and topaz of sufficient purity. Such a price is enough to make the average well-off family fall into the embarrassment of bankruptcy. Even if it is placed in an aristocratic family, this will be a large expense.

Fidel wouldn't have used such expensive props if he could. But now that they have reached the point of life and death, such attrition is already a completely acceptable thing for him.

Nothing is more important than life, and only by keeping life alive can he ask for more. If he loses even this, then what can he do even if he has endless wealth in his hands?

On this point, he calculated very clearly. So naturally, he will not have any stinginess at this time.

If he was an ordinary swordsman facing Field at the moment, then in the face of such a sudden attack, he would definitely fall into a situation of hurry. Taken together, it is not simply a matter of one plus one equaling two. To put it bluntly, if ordinary people don't have a psychological preparation, then there is absolutely only one end like becoming the soul of his sword.

Unfortunately, Hikoko is not an ordinary person. In the face of the surprise attack, his sword momentum did not change, and the strange-shaped long sword slashed straight towards the translucent mana barrier with a low whistle.

On the other hand, for the poisonous acid arrow that was about to hit his face, he only freed up one hand, as if he was catching an arrow with his bare hands, and grabbed it directly towards the poisonous acid arrow with highly poisonous and strong acid attributes.

Although the poison acid arrow is very lethal, it is just an evolution of magic in the end. As long as it can withstand the pain of initial contact, it is almost impossible for it to do any damage to Hiko, who is a Norder. And in the same way, it is just a shield condensed by the aether element, how can it resist Hiko's invincible swordsmanship?

Field thought he had a chance at such a juncture, but it was nothing more than wishful thinking. His little tricks didn't even give him time in the blink of an eye, and he was already about to face Yan's terrifying attack.

To a certain extent, this is a situation in which the brave wins when the narrow road meets. If he could really fight to the death, ignoring Hiko's edge and continuing to advance his sword that stabbed Hiko's throat, he might not be able to make a few more decisive turnarounds.

However, it is a pity that in such a situation, he obviously does not have such an iron will.

The desire for life and the fear of death easily overwhelmed his sanity and led him to perform the last thing a warrior should do in a head-on battle. In a head-to-head duel, he withdrew the sword he had already stabbed out, and hurriedly made a parrying move.

This put him at a disadvantage in this head-to-head duel, and even made him face the threat of death. Because at this moment, he is facing the sword of steel from Hiko.

Cutting steel, like cutting rotten earth. This kind of swordsmanship naturally makes Yan have full confidence in the lethality of this blow. However, things finally happened at this time something beyond Hiko's expectations.

Although he smashed the mana barrier with the Sword of Steel, and landed on the sword erected by Field, the subsequent development did not cut his whole person in half along with the sword as he thought.

Because when the two swords clashed, the sword from Field's hand suddenly came with a piercing roar, and then there was a bang, and Field had already flown out with the sword.

This somewhat unusual situation surprised Yanton for a while, but when he saw the sword in Field's hand, which was still trembling, he immediately understood why this was happening.

"Treasure? It looks like a weapon made of pure gold. A sword made by the dwarves, this scorching flame that overflows on the blade... This is one of the seventy-two treasures of the king that have been passed down orally among the dwarves, and it is no wonder that the Yan Donggra of the West is no wonder!"

Hiko, who knew very well that he couldn't destroy this level of treasure with his swordsmanship cultivation, felt a little sorry that he couldn't destroy this seemingly unordinary enemy in one go. But there are only a few. Because he knows one thing very well, that is, his sword is not so easy to follow.

The roots of the slashing sword art lie in the exquisite use of power. That infinite superposition of power is the root cause of this superb swordsmanship. And it is precisely because of this superposition of power that even under the premise of catching the steel sword, he himself will inevitably be damaged by the concussion of this power.

It is impossible for a person who has mastered a certain meaning of power, or whose body is strong enough to bear this kind of damage. As a user, Hiko, who has mastered the art of slashing steel, naturally has his own way to avoid the backlash of this power. But as a victim, Field didn't have the ability to do so.

The force of the shock was transmitted to him, almost immediately breaking his sword-wielding left hand. And under this completely unexpected injury, it was the earl who had never suffered much to scream at once.

He is not the kind of warrior with an iron will, and he can't do the kind of thing that can be used to scrape bones to cure poison without changing his face. But he is not a fool, but he knows very well that if he patronizes screaming at this time, then the next moment, he may not even have the opportunity to scream.

Running for his life is what he needs to care about the most at this time. And in order to escape for his life, he didn't even have time to pick up the Western Flame on the ground, so he was already screaming and running in the direction of his companion.

"Help, help me. Come and save me, I'm dying, get me out of this guy's hands!"

At this time, the only one who can be regarded by him as his savior is his companion who has played since childhood. In the face of his call for help, the mage, who had been barely maintaining his original state, sighed suddenly. Then with a backhand hand, he already stabbed the bone spur in his hand into his heart.

The bone pierced through his heart, and in just an instant, the blood in his heart was gushing out like a fountain. As soon as the blood left his body, it did not fall directly on the ground in front of him, but as if it had vitality, it shot towards Field, who was approaching him.

The blood turned into a thick spherical shape, and it directly wrapped Field. And in the face of such a strange situation, Yan didn't say a word, and then slashed with a sword.

It's just a spell, just cut it open. His thoughts were so direct and crisp. However, although the sword slashed, it only passed through the ball of blood as if it were passing through the air.

And at this time, the voice of the mage had already reached his ears after his actions.
