Chapter Twenty-Three: Desperate Resistance
For the others, what Yuren did was a little confusing, it didn't look like the starting point of some kind of combat skill, but only Daros, who was in it, knew what it meant, it was a knight's declaration of battle, and when they made it, it meant that their enemies were going to die - no matter how, at what cost, and with no effort, they could not stop it.
When the swordsman was young, he had the good fortune or the misfortune to see a knight make this battle declaration to his opponent, who was holding the knight's five-year-old son, and his cold blade was against the poor little creature's neck, with an error of no more than 0.01 millimeter, and after seeing the knight make such a move, the fellow who had thought that the victory was in his hands and got carried away immediately turned into a sad face, as if the advantage was immediately reversed because of that action, he desperately retreated, while crying and pleading, threatening, praying that the knight would spare his life, but these were meaningless to the knightWithout even the slightest hesitation, he strode forward, swinging his long sword and slicing into the unlucky worm's body after passing through his son's body, splitting them in two.
Since then, Daros has had a fairly strong impression of the knight, and the indomitable momentum and terrifying persistence are, whether or not they are correct, but it is enough to instill absolute fear in his enemies.
Because of this, when Yulian made this move to himself, Daros knew that he was dead.
There are only two ways to go, either he kills the other or he is killed by the other.
Any begging, trading, negotiating, has become meaningless.
Daros didn't believe that he had the strength to kill the other party, in fact, he knew that his defeat was doomed from seeing the flash sheath in the short encounter before, that was a high-level swordsmanship that he hadn't even been able to learn, but it was mastered by the young man in front of him, and this alone had already made Daros realize the difference in strength between the two sides. After seeing Yuren's declaration of battle, Daros felt that his originally turbulent heart had become calm.
That's right, he should have thought that since the other party can master the most difficult skill in high-level swordsmanship, such as the flash sheath, then he must have also learned knight swordsmanship, which is only for those who have the strength of high-level swordsmen, and only those who become knights can learn the strongest swordsmanship. During the era of the Shining Moon, there were countless high-ranking swordsmen who studied knightly swordsmanship and eventually became a powerful knight......... And now, before his eyes, a living knight appeared.
But is he willing to accept defeat and face death in this way?
No, absolutely not.
"Kill!!"
It was a cry of despair, a desperate struggle, the last resistance of all life before the threat of death.
Daros raised his sword aloft - the soul brilliance on its blade had reached its limit, it was so dazzling that it was impossible to look at it directly, he condensed all his life force into it, and then swung it down with all his might.
Half-moon-shaped waves of light erupted from the sword, shooting at Yuren in front of him, and Daros roared and swung his sword as he rushed forward after emitting the blade of light. Even if there is only one fight, Daros will definitely not give up, although it is very likely that this young man will use knightly swordsmanship, and may even be a knight, but so what? He didn't wear protective leather armor, and the thin layer of clothing would not have any protection even if it was full of soul power, and he was too young, even if he really mastered the knight's swordsmanship, he didn't have enough time to practice, plus that strange pitch-black long sword, although I don't know what it was made of, but the soul light on its body was flickering and dimming, which showed that the soul power of this sword was not balanced.
At this moment, Dallus is like a gambler who does everything in his power to dig into the flaws and weaknesses of his opponent before facing defeat, he observes carefully and constantly cheers himself up to overcome the fear of facing known death.
Don't be intimidated by the threat of death, just kill him, just kill him, and you can be the only one on the entire continent to kill a knight as a high swordsman!
Facing this imposing soul sword light, You Lian did not dodge, on the contrary, he only raised his eyebrows slightly, and then, the pitch-black aura was slowly released from the sword body of the dark night essence iron, merging with the sword body, covering up the light blue pattern in it.
Compared to Dallus's momentum, Yulian's performance can be said to be nothing enough to make people noticeable, in fact, most people can't help but focus their eyes on the dazzling, powerful soul sword light, only Offariel stood by the side of the Spirit Knight, still staring at the thin-looking, tall figure in front of him, waiting for the moment when his master won the victory.
But at this moment, Yulian held the sword in one hand, blocking the blade diagonally to his side, and then, he raised his free left hand.
And at this moment, the spirit warriors who had been ready to attack suddenly moved, they quickly scattered in all directions, forming a huge encirclement, and those bandits almost held their breath, waiting for the outcome of the battle, almost no one paid attention to the actions of the spirit warriors - the only thing they thought was strange was why this young man was holding a sword with one hand, did he really think that he could rely on one hand to block the soul sword light of Daros? That is a terrifying power that can even split a huge rock in an instant!
Then, the bandits' eyes widened in surprise, unable to believe what they were seeing.
The huge soul sword light suddenly stopped at the same time as it first came into contact with the pitch-black long sword in the young man's hand, this stagnation is almost nothing logically speaking, even if it is a flash flood and tsunami, when encountering obstacles, there are always a few tenths of a second to deal with the existence that dares to resist in front of him- But then, the sword light that was supposed to continue to move forward suddenly suddenly swelled, as if the powerful power had no place to vent, and then quickly erupted, turning into a point of light with no power at all, and disappeared into the air.
At the same time, the glittering sword had pierced through the stardust and stabbed at Yuren.
Daros didn't stop, he already had some self-defeating meaning, in the eyes of this bandit leader, since the other party is a knight, it is normal to be so powerful that it is beyond imagination, and because of this, he did not have any reaction to the soul sword light that he used all his strength to be dissolved by the other party's understatement- Even when the long sword that originally had enough power to fly the opponent was once again resisted by Yulian, Daros didn't get angry, and he didn't even think about why the caste power that was full of his own soul, and its power was strong enough to shoot a bull hundreds of meters away, could be easily blocked by Yulian with one hand.
He was already desperate.
Just like the previous stab, the moment he exchanged swords with the opponent's sword, Daros felt that the power on his sword suddenly disappeared, no, or he couldn't attack at all, as if his attack had just begun and ended, and there was no longer enough strength and space to maintain his continued exertion.
Daros, who missed the blow, immediately retreated, although his speed was not as fast as when he charged, but due to the bonus of soul power, he was not slow, and in just an instant, he had already retreated five or six meters away - and then he saw Yulian swing his long sword, and the whole person turned into a pitch-black flash of light towards him.
Damn it!
Daros, who immediately returned his sword to protect his chest and resisted Yuren's attack, couldn't help but curse secretly for how he was so stupid, even those black-armored warriors knew how to use the lost sword technique of accelerating the charge, and of course this young man would. How could he be so stupid as to ignore such a matter of course, and stupidly try to distance himself to give the other party a chance to charge, is it brainless?
But soon Dallus was relieved, because Julien told him in another way that it wasn't actually brain-dead.
Because he doesn't need to be far away to charge.
Charging is originally a kind of explosive speed in an instant, raising it to the limit of the technique, and because of this, in fact, the distance is not a problem, but most of the time, this skill is used to shorten the distance with the other party, so most people will subconsciously think that charging is a skill that needs to be distanced to be able to show power, plus modern charging needs to be charged, and in melee combat, no idiot will be stupid to stand within a range of less than a sword from the enemy and wait for him to charge so stupidly。
But accelerating the charge is not just about closing the distance between the other party, this technique created specifically to deal with mages will naturally not make those mages leave their side, and those with a little experience know that even if you use a charge to close the distance between the two, if you can't entangle the other party, it is also futile - there are as many means as the stars in the sky for mages to get away, only you can't think of it, there is nothing they can't do.
And right now, Daros is "lucky" to feel the mood of a mage in the Radiant Moon era when facing a knight's attack.
Yuren's sword swung to the left, crushing Darros's longsword, and then he quickly picked it up, trying to change his direction, and then the sword suddenly picked up speed, and in an instant it was in front of the enemy, and after being resisted, it shook only slightly, and then slashed through a perfect semicircle, advancing again with the same acceleration......... Dallus felt like he was going crazy.
He couldn't see the opponent's weapon clearly, and the long sword in his hand only subconsciously protected the two most important parts of his body, instinctively waving it to resist Yulian's attack. It made him look very embarrassed.
That's not how it should be.
Daros has a soul surname is a burst of power, he can use the power of the soul to raise his own strength to an unprecedented limit, he can easily throw a person into the sky, or he can smash a two-person high boulder into pieces, and at this moment, every time he resists, he also uses his own power, and originally in Daros's imagination, Yulian should have been beaten away by his own burst of power immediately after being resisted, but this is not the case, his soul power still exists, but whenever he fights the other party, it will completely disappear, as if it has never appeared。
"Damn!!"
Sensing that there was no chance of winning like this, Dallus was completely panicked, and he yelled and raised his right foot, and then stomped the ground.
"Boom!"
The dull roar and the shaking of the ground made it feel as if the power of an earthquake was felt, and the ground centered on Daros shattered completely with the blow, forming a spider-web-like shattering pattern that spread, and then Daros blocked Yuren's attack again, and then he slammed his sword into the ground with both hands.
Under the action of this powerful force, the broken ground around Daros suddenly flew apart, and the gravel rose to the sky, scattering in all directions, and many bandits could not dodge, they were hit by those stones, and immediately fell to the ground crying and crying, and even more before dodging, they were hit in the head by the flying stones, and after imprinting a dent mark on it, they fell silently. Stones that are knocked away by a high-ranking swordsman also have considerable power, and if they are hit, they will end up half-crippled even if they do not die.
Offariel hid behind Judy, watching the battlefield in surprise and nervousness.
Subsequently, the dust cleared.
Daros still kept his greatsword smashing to the ground, and Yuren had circled behind him at some point.
The pitch-black sword pierced his neck, and bright red blood dripped down the blade of the sword.
"That's it, your soul, I take it. ”
As You Lian spoke, the pitch-black long sword in his hand suddenly began to change.
