Chapter 19: Combat Skills and Meteor Pirates

When Al was ready to make a move, he had already turned on [Focus] and went all out.

Therefore, it was the first time Al had killed someone, and he had seen the angry horse bandit being choked by his own sword.

Al is also as always, extremely calm, without the slightest fluctuation of feelings.

This appearance really made the horse bandits who had killed countless people in the past feel a little chill from the heart.

In any case, when they kill people, they can't be as calm as El.

The angry bandit kicked his legs a few times, and then his eyes were blank, and he gradually lost his strength, and he could no longer die.

At this time, Al waved the iron sword in his hand and looked at the other four horse bandits, his eyes without sadness or joy.

And at this time, the remaining four horse bandits really reacted, and one of their brothers was killed.

The long-faced, bearded bandit closest to Al let out a low roar, brandished his saber and rushed towards Al with his saber.

Seeing this, Al did not retreat, but advanced, clenching the iron cross sword with both hands, and the muscles on his body surged, swinging it vigorously.

When, with a sharp sound, Al castrated unabated, but the long-faced horse bandit involuntarily took three steps back.

Al Nai is a mid-level knight, and his physical fitness is naturally much stronger than the long-faced horse bandit who first entered the low-level knight.

The knight profession is the same as a priest and a wizard.

The low, middle, and high third-class priests of the priest are comparable to the lower, middle, and upper third-class wizard apprentices of the wizard.

And the low, middle, and high third grades of knights are also similar to the three ranks of wizard apprentices.

It's just that, if you really want to talk about combat effectiveness, wizards are slightly stronger than knights and priests of the same level.

Of course, the difficulty and number of promotions are so great that wizards are not as good as knights and priests.

After the knight surpasses the high knight level, he opens a trace of ancient bloodline contained in his body.

Or seek out the blood of various transcendent beings with special bloodlines and draw the power from them.

And then become a bloodline knight equivalent to an official first-class wizard!

At that point, the knight has many spell abilities, and his physical fitness has also improved by leaps and bounds.

But when he didn't become a bloodline knight, the knight's combat ability in the final analysis depended on physical fitness.

In other words, just by looking at a person's physical fitness, you can judge how far he has reached!

At this time, the boss of the horse bandits, seeing that El forced back the long-faced horse bandit with a sword, immediately judged Eyre's strength.

"Long face, come back, that kid has reached the level of a medium knight, you are not an opponent!"

The boss of the horse bandit is obviously very prestigious, although he is unwilling in his heart, but the long-faced horse bandit still obeys the boss's words.

Gripping the saber tightly, he retreated step by step.

At the same time, the bandit boss took a few steps forward and walked in front of Al.

I saw that he slowly pulled out the cross sword at his waist, and looking at the extremely shiny appearance of the cross sword, it was obviously of high quality.

Compared to the ordinary inferior iron sword made of pig iron in Al's hand, it is an unknown number of grades higher.

"Boy, he is a medium knight at a young age, and he can't say that he can see the gate of the bloodline knight in this life.

But since you have killed my brother today, there is only one result of your untimely death.

I'll let you know that in battles between knights, in addition to rank, there are still combat skills that determine the trend of victory or defeat!"

As the words fell, the cross sword in the hand of the horse bandit boss Cooper slashed through a series of silver trails, and its speed became faster and faster.

But see, the cross sword in Cooper's hand swung at an alarming speed, making a whistling sound that cut through the air.

"Combat Skill - Xunxing!"

With a low roar, Cooper instantly disappeared in place, and those silver tracks exploded like silver starlight and flew in all directions.

At the same time, Al suddenly felt a tingling pain in his eyebrows, and he reacted immediately in a state of [concentration].

The body and head tilted to the right at the same time, and at this time, a silver light passed through Al's face like a meteor.

Took away a strand of Al's hair, and left a shallow bloody gash on his cheek.

The eyes widened, and the pale blue ring on the outside of the pupil became brighter as the [Focus] was turned on.

Al swung his sword with his backhand, and the cross-iron sword in his hand slashed down at Cooper's side.

However, Cooper is a battle-hardened man, and although he is not as fast as Al, his experience allows him to react one step earlier.

With a clang, Cooper gripped his sword in both hands and fended off Al's thud.

At the same time, Cooper directly jammed El's cross-iron sword at the angle between the cross-sword's gauntlet and the blade.

Immediately afterward, Cooper's right shoulder slammed into Al's chest, sending Al straight into the air and slamming it against the wall of the carriage.

Raising his head, Al looked at Cooper, who was holding a sword in his right hand and his cross-iron sword in his left, his brow furrowed slightly.

With the series of attacks just now, Al could almost be said to have no power to fight back.

But he could clearly feel that Cooper, who was only a low-ranking knight, was no match for him in terms of physical fitness alone.

In other words, what Cooper said before he made a move was indeed not wrong.

In battles between knights, although the knight's rank, that is, physical fitness, is the first condition for victory or defeat.

However, if there is a big gap between the combat experience and skills of the two sides, and even the combat skills, it will not be difficult to defeat the strong with the weak.

Thinking of this, the little pride in Al's heart for being promoted to a mid-level knight in three months directly dissipated without a trace.

In the face of such strength, Elna's brain in a state of [concentration] spun rapidly.

Keep thinking back to the actions of the other party when he fought with Cooper just now.

Eventually, Al quickly settled on the most probable and most likely way to respond.

With a glaring of his eyes, Al stepped forward, grabbed his hands up and down, and grabbed Cooper's throat and **** respectively.

The hand that grabbed Cooper's throat was relatively strong.

Seeing this, a flash of sharpness flashed in Cooper's eyes.

After a long battle, he could naturally tell which of El's two hands was more powerful.

As a result, he immediately judged that the hand that Al grabbed at his **** was a false hand.

The real attack was the palm of Al's attack towards his throat.

Holding a cross sword in each hand, he won at El's two hands.

Cooper's left hand, wielding El's cross-sword, slashed at Al's hand that was grabbing at his throat.

As for the right hand, he wielded his cross sword, only making a defense and protecting his ****.

In Cooper's opinion, the next step is to cut off one of Al's palms.

But just when Cooper thought he was going to succeed, his heart moved, and he saw the mocking smile on Al's face.

I saw that the hand that Al grabbed at Cooper's **** suddenly flipped over, directly grabbed Cooper's elbow, and slammed it hard.

This part was pressed by a huge force, which directly caused Cooper's hand to be numb for a while, and the strength of his hand was loose.

Immediately after, Al slipped down with his other hand, grabbed the blade of Cooper's cross sword, and snatched the cross sword directly.

Taking three quick steps back, Al gripped the hilt of the cross sword and swung it twice.

He only felt that Cooper's cross sword was compared to his inferior cross iron sword.

Whether it's weight, length, or sharpness, Al is satisfied.

Moreover, Al could feel that his spiritual power had a slight fluctuation after holding this sword.

Although Al didn't know what it meant, it didn't prevent him from judging the value of the sword.

Nodding in satisfaction, Al looked at Cooper and smiled, "Thank you for your guidance."

As you said, skill is indeed a key to victory.

As for this sword, I took it as a gift from you, a senior, and accepted it with shame. ”

Cooper saw his crosssword snatched away by El, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he wanted to take it back immediately.

But when he thought of the movement of Al's hand that he couldn't react to, he froze again.

At this time, the long-faced horse bandit suddenly said that the time was up, which made Cooper's face even more gloomy.

Gritting his teeth, Cooper looked at Al and said, "Now you give me back my sword."

In that case, I would be able to treat today's events as if they hadn't happened.

Otherwise, you will definitely regret it, we Meteor Thieves have never suffered such a big loss!"

As soon as Cooper's words fell, the nearby passengers who were far away from the horse bandits suddenly exclaimed.

I thought that Cooper and them were just ordinary horse bandits, but I never thought that they were meteor thieves.

As the largest gang of bandits in the vicinity of Far Mountain City, the Meteor Thieves are not only numerous.

Moreover, there are countless strong people among the Meteor Thieves, and it is said that the leader of the Meteor Thieves has broken through the limits of the High Knights.

After absorbing the blood of a transcendent creature obtained by chance, he successfully became a bloodline knight!

You must know that even in the military of the Holy Sword Empire, a bloodline knight can lead a team of elite soldiers.

The existence of this level, even in Yuanshan City, is definitely a big person.

Therefore, among the towns and villages around Far Mountain City, the Meteor Thief is definitely an existence like an earth emperor.

And because the Meteor Thieves are under the leadership of their leader, they do not threaten Far Mountain City.

Therefore, those nobles and officials in Yuanshan City were happy to not see the meteor thieves.

There are even some rumors circulating that the Meteor Thief is inextricably linked to a certain great nobleman in Far Mountain City.

As for the truth of this rumor, it is not for the common people and small traders to know.

Al had obviously heard rumors of the Meteor Pirates, but he didn't feel the slightest fear.

Smiling slightly, looking at Cooper, Al spoke, "I'm a little similar to you Meteor Thieves.

That's what came to me, that's mine, and no one wants to take it back.

If you can snatch the sword from my hand, then I will have nothing to say.

But if you can't take it, wait for your own sword to pierce the heart!"
