Chapter 18: White Frost
In the face of the attack of the demon hunters, Ciri repeatedly retreated, the phantom sword shadows and afterimages were dazzling, and the approach of the other party made Ciri gradually retreat to the edge of the burning monastery. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
With a wall behind him, Ciri now has no way back.
The slightest distraction made her fall into a passive situation, and the offensive sword was now Ciri's best armor, but now the movement speed of this armor was slightly slower, and the bright sword attacked Ciri's body.
Before he could dodge, the sword brushed lightly across his face, the sharp metal leaving a trail under the skin of his left eye, and the bright red blood slowly fell like tears, flowing over his face and finally falling to the ground.
The offensive of breaking through the defense did not put the opponent to death, and the unwilling demon hunter wanted to launch a new round of attacks, and now she was pushed into a corner and there was no way to withstand his attack.
The demon hunter who was victorious suddenly felt an eerie aura coming from behind him, and the feeling of death made him fall into an inexplicable panic, and the girl in front of him suddenly disappeared, without the slightest sign or warning, as if it didn't exist at all.
Years of fighting have made him highly vigilant, and now the best thing he can do is to immediately establish defenses against unknown threats.
The vacant left hand quickly gestured in the air, and a wonderful magic seal appeared in the air, and a faint blue shield shrouded the demon hunter, and the flowing magic power was visible to the naked eye.
Bang β
The shield that had just been built didn't last for half a second before it collapsed in the attack of the girl who suddenly appeared behind it, and the scattered fragments only remained in the air for a moment before they were annihilated in the air.
A deadly attack was defused invisibly by the vigilance of the Demon Hunter, who immediately changed direction, and the Demon Hunter immediately noticed that the gray-haired girl who had suddenly disappeared was now standing not far away.
The reaction force created by the Kun En Fa Seal caused her to take several steps back in quick succession before she could stabilize her pace.
The scar that suddenly appeared under the left eye was like a bloody tear, and several drops of "bloody tears" fell on the dirt or stained the white clothes.
The scars on her face didn't make the gray-haired girl care too much, the long sword in her hand was clenched with both hands, she was ready to face the next round of battle, gently **** her dry lips, the strength of the opponent made her feel unprecedented pressure.
Demon hunters are terrifyingly fast and accurate, with each attack aimed at a lethal location. His way of fighting reminded Ciri of the elves, and on the battlefields of the past, only the elves would use such a terrifying attack.
Maybe it was because he was afraid of Ciri's strange movement method, or maybe the high-frequency attack just now made the opponent's physical exertion very large, and now he is preparing for the next round of attacks.
The blade of the sword was facing the Demon Hunter, the tip of the sword pointed at the gray-haired girl, and now the two of them were moving in a circle, neither of them wanting to attack first.
"Can we calm down and talk?" said the Demon Hunter, his eyes wary as he followed the blade into his turquoise eyes.
β......β
"I think there was a big misunderstanding between us, I didn't burn this monastery, I didn't have that motive, and there wasn't anyone here when I came. The Demon Hunter continued.
This explanation Ciri had already heard him say, and now the other party's repetition still makes Ciri hard to believe that he has such a motive.
The Demon Hunters had come to hunt him down, and everyone around him knew that there was a warrior living in the monastery, and that the refugees who accompanied him must have been preaching that it was a knight!
Guessing this, Sophie was threatened by the other party for not revealing Ciri's information, and finally set fire.
As for whether the guess is correct, Ciri is not clear, now the other party is the most suspicious, and the current situation does not allow her to enter for inspection.
"I hope you'll believe ......," the Demon Hunter tried to explain, but the same danger had just recurred.
Without hesitation, he rolled over, and a large amount of dirt and dust stuck to his clothes, making his image even more embarrassing, but he dodged a deadly attack because of it.
The sharp sword went deep into the ground, and the earth and gravel on the ground showed a deep flat scar on the pull of the long sword, and if this scar appeared on the human body, it would definitely be a serious injury that would be difficult to stitch up.
Negotiation was useless, and now the Demon Hunter had given up the opportunity to negotiate, and in the explanation he had just explained, he had used the Charm Seal, Yaxi, but it turned out that this spell was useless to the gray-haired girl in front of him.
The strange movement is like the teleportation of the sorceresses, but it is impossible for the sorceresses to reach such a fast teleportation speed!
Perhaps because the blood remaining on her face was too much of a hindrance, the gray-haired girl gently wiped the blood from the wound, and was shocked when the wound was displayed in the amber cat's eye of the demon hunter!
The wound has healed!
Although the shallow scars on Zi's face affected the beauty of his appearance, the flat wounds are now all healed, and not even a single blood is left.
Now, only a few tens of seconds have passed since the wound was inflicted, and the wound has completely healed, and the incredible speed not only surprised the demon hunters, but also shocked Ciri.
Could it be that this is a problem with the constitution of the demon hunter? This idea was abandoned by her as soon as it appeared, and the knowledge about the demon hunter that Sophie had instilled in her did not include this phenomenon.
At the same time, a description of Sophie came to Ciri's mind: "When I brought you back, I found that your body was still alive, but the outer skin was all destroyed, but the inside of the body was slowly recovering, no, it seemed that the organs in the body were going backwards, and time was going backwards to the time when the fire had depleted the organs." β
Everywhere she remembers, the vision of her body doesn't allow her to think too much about it now, because the demon hunter named Ned has launched a new attack.
This time, he rushed directly to Ciri with a blue shield, and the flow of magic was clearly visible in Ciri's eyes, and he brought out the sand and dust all the way as he ran, leaving a long black shadow.
With the sand as the background, his body spun rapidly, alternately spinning and moving forward, drawing interlocking circles on the ground, and the long sword in his hand made a terrifying sound of breaking through the air under the blessing of the inertia of his body and the strength of his arm, like the sound of paper being torn apart in anger.
Ciri didn't want to make contact with the other party, because this time, the strength he showed was even stronger, the speed reached an incredible level, and the power on the blade was far beyond the attack just now.
The wind from the sword slashed the mud not far away into a pothole.
Ciri dodged quickly, but the Demon Hunter approached even faster, and the messy sword shadow had completely encased the opponent's body. Teleportation can certainly dodge the opponent's attacks again and again, but the huge cost makes Ciri put this plan on hold for the time being.
For the current Ciri, this is a way to quench her thirst, and when her physical strength is exhausted, she becomes a fish to be slaughtered.
Time gradually slowed down, and the originally exaggerated speed was able to be perfectly captured by Ciri, but the impenetrable sword shadow made it difficult for Ciri to find a place to break through.
The expected slowdown of time that Ciri had been trying to achieve reappeared, and in order to achieve this effect, Ciri tried many times, each time to fail, and each time the body was unable to move, and the speed of time could not be controlled.
But now, unconsciously, this ability has reappeared, is it possible to do it when the life is in danger?
The doubts in her heart are put aside for the time being, and now the rare opportunity makes Ciri not want to give up, the phantom in her eyes is real and false, it is difficult to tell the naked eye, but the consciousness of years of fighting has made her know where to start safely.
Whewβ
When the sound of steel crashed into the air, Ciri could see the surprised look on the demon hunter's face, he didn't know when the gray-haired girl in front of him would be able to have such speed, but he also knew that it was not suitable to think on the battlefield.
The sword in the Demon Hunter's hand changed its trajectory in the afterimage, and the many illusion remnants around him provided him with good cover, but these covers did not cause much trouble for Ciri.
As time slowed down, Ciri was finally able to fight his opponent's chess rivals, and the two swords sparked a splash of fire in the hands of their respective masters.
Ooooooββ......oo
The sound was also elongated at this moment, and the impact of different channels made Ciri feel very weird, but the current battle made her run away from this weird feeling.
But by the time slowdown had completely worn off, the Demon Hunter no longer had the strength to attack at such a high frequency, and the mental and physical exhaustion made it difficult for Ciri to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Zhu Jian gasped, now the two of them can only use their eyes to launch a dispensable eye attack on each other, the battle just now made the physical consumption of the two reach an unprecedented height, and now neither of them can continue to fight for a new round of battles.
"Since none of us can help anyone, why don't we sit down and explain slowly!" Finally, the Demon Hunter sat down on the ground, his body exerting himself from making it difficult for him to continue to hold on.
"Okay......" Nodding slightly, Ciri still agreed to the other party's request, and the loss just now was no worse than the other party.
The long explanations are nothing but a rehash of old theories, and the unsubstantiated statements today are just useless defenses of the other side.
Time passed slowly, and both men were recovering their strength, ready to face a new round of battle.
Half-squinted eyes were constantly watching the demon hunter in front of him, and Ciri was ready to respond to his sneak attack or overboard attack at any time.
Buzz β
The slight shaking sound filled the two with wariness, Ciri fearing that the other might use some new tricks, while the Demon Hunter looked at the vibrating badge on his chest in bewilderment.
Eyes moved to the sky, and in the blue sky of late autumn, there were snowflakes floating in the sky, followed by a biting cold snap.
