Chapter 51: The Moment When the Face Was Cut

Taking advantage of the moment when the Vermilion Bird Beast was stunned, Artoria did not hesitate at all, and quickly broke through to her with the flame whip on her shoulder, stabbing the long sword into her head, as if she was going to "shoot the head" directly to the Vermilion Bird Beast.

No matter what creature you are, as long as you can't be resurrected in defiance of restrictions and other strange properties, your head will always be the most vulnerable part. Now, unless someone suddenly comes forward to help, she will definitely be defeated.

Perhaps because of the strength of the Vermilion Bird Beast, Artoria seemed to have subconsciously forgotten that the two of them were just staying at the level of a contest, and there was no need to kill them. It may be that she has been suppressed until now, and she has unconsciously regarded this as a real confrontation.

It's just that Artoria has overlooked one point, that is, the Vermilion Bird Beast is an existence that has lived for many years, and the battles she has experienced are not comparable to her, although the flaws are revealed in this brief moment, but it is still a little naïve to expect that she can be defeated with a surprise attack.

It was too late, but the sense of smell that the Vermilion Bird Beast had developed over the years of fighting played an important role in this moment, and it almost instinctively shifted sideways a little, and it was able to dodge this mortal blow. Artoria's sword stabbed only a small part of her face, leaving a scar. But the scar was caused by such a rapid stabbing blow after all, and the blood slowly spilled out.

Seeing that this hard-won stabbing attack did not have a considerable effect, and also thinking that Vermilion Bird Beast should have reacted, Artoria followed this breakthrough and moved to the opposite side, keeping a certain distance from Vermilion Bird Beast.

Now she didn't plan to approach Vermilion Bird again, the situation was different from just now. Just now, she had been unable to get close to the Vermilion Bird Beast, because she was helpless against the Vermilion Bird Beast's attack, either being knocked away or attacking fruitlessly, and at the same time she had been entangled in the opponent's flames, so she was in a hurry in her heart, eager to be able to cause a considerable attack effect.

Artoria, who remembered and activated all her inherent skills, relied on her two skills, intuition and magical power, and finally managed to close the distance between her strength and Vermilion Birdmon. The spray of flame and the attack of the flame whip have reduced the damage dealt to the blonde girl by a considerable amount, which she had already estimated when she attacked with the whip just now, and her intuition helped her to anticipate the attack of the Vermilion Bird and launch a dodge move.

With just two inherent skills, it is obviously unrealistic to be able to directly fight with the Vermilion Bird Beast, but at least the situation is not as difficult as before, connecting close is a luxury, and even dodging and defending against a flame attack feels like such a difficult task. Now that Artoria has liberated all her inherent skills, she still has room for a battle in the face of the Vermilion Bird Beast.

Because of this, Artoria could have chosen to continue the attack after seeing that this rare blow did not seriously injure the Vermilion Bird (which she was so optimistic looking forward to), after all, they were so close. However, because she thought that she didn't know anything about the other party's pile of flames, in order to avoid any mistakes, she chose to retreat and attack slowly.

I can barely confront her now, I don't need to fight to the death like I just did, I can take my time, try to touch the flames that are attacking, familiarize myself with her routines, and then attack.

In addition, she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have a battle skirt mode that abandoned defense and focused on attack speed, which gave her more confidence to give up "chasing after victory" and choosing "steady and steady".

Of course, Wang Xiaoming didn't expect this, and he also forgot that Artoria also had such a battle skirt mode, and the funny thing is that this is still the setting he carefully designed for the girl. He was very puzzled that the girl did not choose to continue the attack, and kept scolding in his heart.

Damn, are you really stupid? If you don't take advantage of such a good opportunity to attack, there will be no such shop in this village. Longevity, this is going to ......

"Xiaoming, Leah, she seems to be starting to gain the upper hand. Liv was so happy that the character who could hurt the Vermilion Bird Beast had not yet seen it except for the other three beings who were among the same holy beasts as her. So she naturally thought that Artoria was starting to gain a foothold and was about to gain the upper hand.

"Tut-tut, it looks like this...... Then we don't have to pay so much attention to her, anyway, the situation is not as bad as it was just now, let's continue to educate the rules of the main palace. Wang Xiaoming shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

"Well, go on, after I become the main palace in the future, I need to ......"

Seeing that the battle situation had improved, under the guidance of Wang Xiaoming, the two of them were even more ignorant.

Artoria was not bad, and as she distanced herself from Vermilion Bird, the pile of flames surrounding Vermilion quickly pounced on her. It wasn't a small path of flames, but all the flames around the Vermilion Bird Beast that rushed towards her in one go. If she chooses to continue attacking, at such a close distance, even if she has an intuition, I am afraid that it will be a serious injury.

Sure enough, she didn't fully contribute, those flames were not only used to launch attacks, they were also an offensive trick in themselves, and they really couldn't be taken too lightly against the Vermilion Bird Beast...... If only that blow could have hit her hard, the Wind Wolf King was once, and the Vermilion Bird Beast was another time, and I missed too many opportunities to succeed in one fell swoop.

Artoria was still regretting her mistake, and the large pile of flames was already approaching her.

There was no choice but to "sacrifice" the sword.

I saw that in this short moment, Artoria directly added her magic power to the long sword without adjustment, and the sword body, which was already emitting silver-white light, was even more dazzling and shining at this time.

As soon as Artoria put all her magic into the blade of her sword, the flames were already rushing towards her, so she swung her sword without hesitation.

It was at such a close distance that the clash of the sword and the flames caused a blast, and Artoria urged her legs to retreat in an instant, trying not to affect herself too much.

However, she was blown up by this battle.

In the air, Artoria's consciousness quickly regained because of her mental preparation, and she rolled a few times and landed safely to the ground.

Her sword had been shattered in the confrontation, and she had returned to Mother Earth with great glory. Because she was close to the explosion, her body was inevitably damaged no more or less, but fortunately, she was in skirt mode at this time, protected by the armor generated by the "magic release" skill, so that she would not be seriously injured. Therefore, she did not fall into a low mood because she had the last and only two weapons, the sword.

On the contrary, she still smiled, not a confident smile that was in her hands, but a joy of indulging in a life-and-death battle.

It's so exciting...... Is this a battle with a strong man? It seems that at any time you will lose your life because of the slightest carelessness, and the Vermilion Bird Beast will have it, and I will have it, this feeling is really indescribable......

Artoria took out the last longsword from the spatial ring, this longsword looked no different from a normal longsword, as the owner of the weapon shop said, and spent all his energy on quality.

Artoria felt the quality of this sword again, the manager of the weapon shop didn't lie to them, the quality was different from the previous roadside ordinary goods, the quality was more advanced, it could withstand the addition of her own high-pressure magic, and the bonus effect was also stronger, maybe she could really win the Vermilion Bird Beast?

It's just that as soon as Artoria looked at the Vermilion Bird Beast and saw the group of flames that had been summoned around her again, the idea of defeating the Vermilion Bird Beast was directly dissipated.

The girl's expression was helpless. Forget it, don't be delusional about winning or something, now that I haven't reached that strength, let's try to fight evenly.

The Vermilion Bird Beast stroked the scar on her face, except for Xuanwu, the White Tiger, the hateful Green Dragon, and the Yellow Dragon, who hadn't appeared for a long time, no one could hurt her a point, even if it was just a small one on her face.

"Hey, will you pity the fragrance and cherish the jade? Scratch someone's face, what if you break the appearance? How will you meet people in the future?" Touching the scar, Suzaku said in a mocking tone, not like he was blaming, but like he was **.

Artoria looked at Suzaku with a smile: "I'm sorry, after all, it's in the middle of the battle, if there are any consequences in the future, I will be responsible." "A solemn look.

"Responsible?" Suzaku smiled, his eyes narrowed slightly, "How can you be responsible?"

"This ......" Artoria was stunned by her words, she thought that she would heal the wound on her face, it shouldn't take a lifetime, right?

"Excuse me, I don't understand what you're talking about? ”

Artoria promised.

"Hehehe......" Suzaku couldn't stop laughing when he heard this, and let out a crisp laugh like a blue bird.

Artoria doesn't understand, but Wang Xiaoming does!

It's a tease, a tease, it's great that Al doesn't understand, it's better never to understand, lest the Vermilion Bird Beast come to the real thing.

At the same time, Wang Xiaoming also wondered about the girl's strong peach blossom luck, one "hit" and one accurate......
