Chapter 71: Undercurrent
Al looked at John, who was standing beside him and seemed to be smiling, and gritted his teeth fiercely, and the whole person was like a spring, and it bounced off the ground in an instant.
At the same time, the silver light of the Dao Dao circulated around Al's body, and in the blink of an eye, Al turned into a silver starlight, which shot towards John with a burst of bloom.
The display of the combat skill 'Swift Star' made John's face look solemn, and a hidden look of surprise appeared.
However, just one combat skill is not enough to make John lose his temper and cannot deal with it!
But I saw that the muscles on John's arms bulged instantly, and the hairs on them grew wildly, like a protective layer protecting John's arms in them.
Immediately after, seeing the silver starlight that was about to fall on him, John suddenly closed his palms without hesitation, and a roar sounded from between John's palms, only to see that John's palms directly clamped the burning sword in Al's hand, and the broken starlight spread out in all directions.
Al looked at John, who was holding the scorching sword in his hand in both palms, and couldn't believe that his combat skills were broken by John like this, which was something that Al would never have imagined before.
"This ...... How is that possible!"
Looking at the stunned Al, a faint smile appeared on the corner of John's mouth and said: "Boy, don't you understand? If you don't understand, admit defeat, there's no shame in losing to your own Lao Tzu!"
Hearing John's words, the corners of Al's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "But losing to a father like you is something I absolutely don't want to accept!"
After finishing speaking, the Burning Sword in Al's hand continued to vibrate, and in an instant, the phantom of the Dao Burning Sword appeared around El's body, layered like a wall, instantly separating Al and John!
This is El 'Sword and Shield', another combat skill!
Pulling the scorching sword away from the blockade of John's hands, Al immediately launched a counterattack, only to see a faint blue ring appear in his eyes, and after opening the [Focus] state, Al's combat skill 'Sword and Shield' suddenly changed.
The layers of sword shadows were like blooming flowers, blooming in an instant, like petals wrapped towards John, which was magnificent.
Originally, seeing Al once again display another stronger combat skill, John's face was already faintly surprised.
And when John saw the change of Elsch's combat technique 'Sword and Shield', the look of surprise on John's face could no longer be maintained, and it was completely revealed.
John was well aware of the difficulties of cultivating combat skills, and if Al had obtained a combat skill from some source and mastered it, it was within John's understanding.
Then Al has mastered stronger combat skills, and has also made certain changes, so that the combat skills that should have been defensive have evolved into aggressiveness, which is undoubtedly beyond John's comprehension.
John, who didn't know that Al had the ability of [Focus] to assist El in transforming his combat skills, was completely blamed on Al's own talent for these performances.
This once again refreshed John's understanding of Al's talent, and there was already a tendency to be a little stunned.
Because John knew very well what Al was like before he joined the army, it can be said that he was helpless.
And now Al has not only become a high-ranking knight, but also uses his combat skills superbly.
In just four or five years, it is unimaginable.
Of course, if John had known that it had only taken Al half a year to achieve such an achievement, his expression would probably have been even more interesting!
"Boom!"
Countless sword shadows collided with John, making an astonishing roar.
John kept retreating, and the lines on his body glowed with a faint golden glow, as if golden hair was covering his body.
As for John's arms blocking in front of him, they completely grew real golden hair, which was blocked in front of him as a shield and used as a shield.
"Tsk, this kid is really difficult to deal with, it looks like he needs to show some things at the bottom of the box!"
Thinking of this, John's application changed, and the phantom of a golden giant ape appeared behind him!
I saw the golden giant ape raise its arms and hang down violently against the ground.
At the same time, the ground beneath John's feet shattered, and the boulders and dirt turned into a tidal wave and surged straight towards the El.
At this time, El looked at the sword momentum that was rapidly routing under the surging tide of earth and stone, and a faint sense of powerlessness rose in the whole person's heart.
Al knew very well that the attack that John was now casting was already as powerful as the first-level witchcraft of a full-fledged wizard!
And this is what wizards call a spell-like ability, a natural ability possessed by a bloodline knight!
The earth and stone tide slowly stopped, John looked at Al with a surprised face, and laughed rarely: "Boy, can you see, this is my extraordinary bloodline, the natural ability given to me by the mountain giant ape, how about its name 'Earth Waves', who do you think has won now." ”
Pouting, Al Xin said that if he could perform witchcraft and use the true power of the Scorching Sword, it was not yet known who would win or lose, but in fact, when he faced John, he was indeed unable to use his witchcraft ability.
So although Al was not convinced, he didn't have anything to say.
Throwing the dust off his body, Al stood up from the ground, looked at John, and said, "Father, if you don't have anything else to do, then I'll leave first." ”
With that, Al was ready to turn around and leave Grant Manor, which had been damaged by John's move, and return to his hunter's hut.
However, at this moment, John suddenly spoke: "I am also saddened by the matter of Al, Byrd and Melissa, but we must not always be immersed in sadness, we must look forward.
As for Linda's affairs, I will send Linda to a small village under Grant's territory to recuperate, and you will never see her in this life.
So...... Can you go back to Grant Manor, after all, this is your home after all? ”
Hearing John's words, Al's heart fluctuated slightly, if he was really just a high-ranking knight, then Al would probably choose to give in once and return to live in Grant Manor.
But Elco wasn't just a high knight, he was a wizard's apprentice, an identity that even his father couldn't tell!
For John, Al believes very much, but it is not only his father John in Grant Manor, those attendants and maids are very likely to let Al be hunted down by the people of the church, and affect the people of Grant Manor, so Al cannot risk returning to Grant Manor.
It was only in the Hunter's Hut, near the Snakeback Forest, that Al was able to devote himself to the study of witchcraft with a little peace of mind, allowing him to make great strides on the path of wizard apprenticeship.
After a moment's hesitation, Al looked back at John, shook his head slightly, and said, "Father, I'm used to living in the Hunter's Cottage, and Grant Manor is not suitable for me. ”
Hearing Al's words, John sighed, and a trace of regret inevitably appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Rao is cheap son of El couldn't help but feel unbearable.
After hesitating for a long time, Al finally spoke: "If you don't bother you, father, then I don't know if it's okay for me to come back for dinner once in a while?"
Hearing this, John's originally gloomy eyes lit up slightly, and then he said with a smile: "Of course, Grant Manor is your home, just come back when you want to come back for dinner." ”
Looking at John's heartfelt smile, Al nodded slightly, and a faint warmth rose in his heart.
Immediately, Al turned around and quickly disappeared into the forest outside Grant Manor, quickly leaving.
And just as Al was leaving, in the room belonging to Linda in Grant Manor, Alan walked away from the window, and he glanced at Linda, who was slowly falling asleep under the persuasion and comfort of the maid, and his face showed a heavy gloomy color.
Back in his room, Alan locked his room from the inside, and then looked at a middle-aged man dressed as a valet sitting in his room.
After a long hesitation, Alan finally walked up to the middle-aged man and whispered, "Mr. Helberg, you can say, what conditions does Lord Randy have to help me become Baron Grant!"
Hearing Alan's words, the man dressed as a manservant suddenly showed an aura that did not belong to a manservant at all.
I saw him smile slightly and said, "Lord Randy's conditions are very simple, he will mobilize the power of himself and the Terra family to help you become Baron Grant.
Accordingly, you want to support Lord Randy to become the next Viscount of Terra, and help Lord Randy's men capture your brother Al Grant alive, I wonder what you think?"
Hearing this condition, Alan's eyes froze slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
Immediately, he nodded and said, "Naturally, I don't need to say much about dealing with that bastard of El, even if Lord Randy is ready to let him go, I will implore Lord Randy to send someone to help me deal with him."
And since Lord Randy has long had the idea of dealing with the bastard of Al, then I naturally fully agree and fully cooperate, which is naturally needless to say. ”
Hearing Alan's words, Helberg nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "In that case, Mr. Alan, you can be regarded as standing on the same side as Lord Randy."
And as a comrade-in-arms standing on the same front, Master Randy has never been stingy in giving.
Lord Randy's mother is the concubine of a core noble family in the Holy Sword Empire, although she is only a concubine, but she has a lot of property, and this thing can release the 'Holy Light Blessing' three times a day It is considered Lord Randy's coronation!"
As he spoke, Herberg reached out and took out a small, ordinary-looking silver ring and placed it in front of Alan, with a smile on his face.
