Volume 3 The Shadow of Uxhire Chapter 215 The Last Resort

Cones' greatsword was almost as tall as Ophelia's, but such a massive weapon swung in his hand as if it were completely weightless.

Ophelia could only use her nimble body to dodge and move under Cones's greatsword, and she knew that the slightest mistake would lead to a slash, so she was extremely cautious.

But as Cornes swung faster and faster, Ophelia suddenly felt a lot of struggle, and repeatedly touched the sharp edge of the greatsword.

Although her armor was mixed with gold sparkle, it didn't play much role in front of the magic sword of the same material, and in the end, there was no complete armor on her body.

And every time she touches the giant sword, Ophelia's body will also be shaken a lot, and under the continuous pain, her physical energy will be consumed very quickly.

It's a pity that Emir is not around, otherwise she can completely ignore this, so at this time, it will definitely suffer if she continues, and she has to temporarily withdraw from the attack range of Cones.

Unexpectedly, the weak Cornes actually caught up, and he seemed to see that Cohen was unwilling to participate in the battle anymore.

"Damn." Ophelia cursed and had to fight him again.

Perhaps because she was deflated in the first move, she became more and more powerless, and finally, when she was slashing with the giant sword, her hand suddenly trembled, and the holy sword actually came out.

Although she immediately reached out her left hand to catch it, Cornes did not miss the opportunity, and quickly flipped the blade of the sword and slashed towards her left hand.

Ophelia had to give up, and let the sword fall to the ground.

Seeing that the other party was flawed, Cornes took advantage of the situation to adjust the trajectory of the greatsword's swing, and instead aimed at Ophelia's chest.

In the face of Cones' pressing steps, Ophelia had no choice but to continue to retreat, and at the same time, Cones kicked the holy sword on the ground and took it away.

However, what he didn't expect was that a ghostly figure suddenly appeared behind him, and when he reacted, the other party actually took out a sharp dagger and stabbed him.

"What!"

Cones was shocked, thinking that it was the elf princess who came before, after all, the other party's crystal dagger once made him have a psychological shadow, but when he looked back, it was Cohen.

While Cones breathed a sigh of relief, Cohen snatched the holy sword from his hand, and Ophelia saw the opportunity to start a counterattack.

Under this front and back attack, Cones hurriedly set up a giant sword defense, but it was aimed at Cohen behind him, after all, Ophelia's bare hands would definitely not cause much damage, or Cohen's threat was greater.

So, without any suspense, Cornes directly punched Ophelia.

Although the other party was a woman, this punch contained a huge force, as if the impact of a battering ram actually made his chest dull for a while, and finally spurted out a mouthful of blood.

On the other side, Cohen snatched the holy sword and stepped back directly, without any intention of attacking him, and Cones realized that he had been completely deceived.

He was furious, intending to take all his anger out on Ophelia, but Cohen threw his sword at her.

"Thank you."

Ophelia thanked her, then immediately jumped into the air and caught the flying sword.

Cornes also wanted to grab it, but he was still one step slower and put himself in danger.

He thought that the continuous pursuit of victory would force Ophelia to have no chance to release his sword skills, but he never expected that the moment the other party jumped into the air, he would actually successfully release it.

At this time, Cornes also came to mid-air, and he couldn't hide if he wanted to, so he had to tilt his head at the critical moment and let his shoulder catch this sword skill.

After a while, the two of them fell to the ground, and Cornes's body was almost split in half, but his vitality was extremely tenacious, and he did not die immediately after being so badly injured.

Ophelia didn't let up at all, she knew that Cornes would soon summon a stand-in, and when she was in Blackpool Town, she had seen Cornes resurrect with the help of a double.

Later, the Emir told her that as long as she didn't let the stand-in eat his body after killing Cornes.

So she was preoccupied at this time, planning to end Connes with her next sword move, and then she would concentrate on stopping the stand-in.

But Cornes didn't look right, he was clutching the huge wound that stretched from his shoulder to his chest, and the blood was flowing like a stream, and it was estimated that in less than ten seconds, he would lose too much blood and die.

Immediately afterward, Ophelia decided to use her sword skills immediately, regardless of what tricks he was playing.

"Watch out for the back." Cohen, who was not far away, suddenly shouted.

Ophelia turned sharply, only to find a figure behind her, it was none other than Cornes, of course, to be precise, his stand-in.

"Cut, have you already summoned it?"

Ophelia looked back at the badly injured Cornes, only to find that the other party had disappeared, and it was clear that Cornes had merged with the stand-in when she wasn't looking.

Ophelia is not depressed, she doesn't know how many stand-ins the other party has, but as long as she continues to fight, she will always find the flaws in the other party.

On the other side, Cones, who had gained a new body, raised his sword again and attacked, this time he chose to release his sword skills directly.

Ophelia didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took a few steps back, wanting to concentrate on dodging the opponent's sword skills, and then counterattack with sword skills when she succeeded.

Immediately after, a black mist suddenly appeared on Cones' greatsword, and in a short time, the entire blade was entwined.

He quickly slashed forward, and a jet-black sword aura instantly struck Ophelia.

Ophelia saw the opportunity to jump to the side, she couldn't help but think that the trajectory of this sword qi was clearly in a straight line, and it should be difficult to hit the enemy, with Cones's mind, there was no reason to use such a simple move.

So she kept an eye on it, and as expected, after she avoided the sword qi, Cones rushed over with his sword again, and at the same time released his second sword technique.

As she had thought at first, Ophelia quickly gained strength after dodging the first sword move, so the next sword moves of the two were released almost simultaneously.

At that moment, the black mist wrapped around the Cornes greatsword disappeared, and when Ophelia's sword stabbed past, it should have collided with the greatsword, but it was bounced away by an invisible force.

Because of this, the trajectory of the holy sword changed, and finally stabbed at Cones's side, while the opponent's greatsword slashed head-on.

This sword technique may contain a huge amount of power, Ophelia instantly felt that she was dead, but she was not willing to admit defeat like this, so she quickly turned her body, hoping to avoid the blade.

In the next second, sure enough, the god of luck was on Ophelia's side, and the blade of the giant sword grazed the armor, making a sharp and piercing sound.

Ophelia didn't bother to cover her ears, and seized the opportunity to step back.

But even so, she still couldn't escape the danger, because just as she was relieved, a spatial crack appeared behind her, and a giant sword stretched out from it.

Cohen, who was watching the battle from a distance, couldn't believe his eyes, and this side of Cornes had just finished unleashing his sword skills, but another Cornes appeared on the other side.

“…… Could this guy be able to exist at the same time as a stand-in? ”

Then, as soon as Cohen thought about it, it dawned on him.

When Cones was hit by Ophelia, he was badly wounded, but did not die immediately, and then his double appeared.

At that time, he was already able to exist at the same time as the stand-in, but everyone didn't notice this, and now the one who came out of the spatial crack should be the one who was seriously injured, but he had already changed into a new body in the dark.

"Hehe, if the emir were here, he would understand it immediately."

At this time, Ophelia had not noticed Cones's sneak attack, and because the distance between the two was so close, Cohen might not have time to warn him.

At the critical moment, he directly took out his dagger and threw it, but the target was not Cones, who stretched out his sword from the spatial rift, but Ophelia.

Because at this time, Cohen was in Ophelia's line of sight, and if he threw it here, Ophelia could immediately detect it.

Sure enough, as Cones' greatsword was about to pierce Ophelia's body, she dodged the flying dagger in surprise while dodging the fatal blow behind her.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

"Watch the back!" Cohen had a chance to remind.

Ophelia suddenly realized, quickly jumped to the side, and then released the sword technique behind her, but unfortunately this sword skill without charge could not do much damage, and only bounced off Cones's greatsword.

At the same time, Cornes in front of her also went on the offensive, and now she was caught between two loaves of bread.

Seeing Ophelia in an unfavorable situation, Cohen couldn't hold back the mood to join the war.

Because after watching the game for a while, he found that Cornes was nothing special except for the help of a stand-in.

But it was this that made it tricky, and he thought to himself that if Ophelia was defeated, it would be his turn next.

When the time comes, he will also be in a bitter battle, which is the last thing he wants to face, so it is better to destroy Cornes together now.

As soon as he thought of this, Cohen sprang into action, and since he had no sword in his hand, he looked around, hoping to find a weapon at his disposal, even if he didn't have bricks.

Eventually, he got a stick in the hands of a crowd of onlookers, almost a man tall and thin, that seemed to break at the slightest touch.

But Cohen couldn't do much of it, and he rushed forward with the fragile stick.

When Cornes saw the "weapon" in his hand, he couldn't help but want to laugh, but Ophelia's sword stabbed again, and he had to rush into battle.

Ophelia had a little difficulty fighting against one Cones, let alone two, and although the strength became half of the original, the two flanks were still unbearable.

In a few moments, several wounds were cut on her arms and legs, and although they were not serious, she had no chance of stopping the bleeding, and it was not good for her to continue like this.

And here Cohen also joined the battlefield, and Cones didn't look down on this living treasure at all, and only focused on fighting Ophelia.

But this was exactly Cohen's plan, and when he got close to Cornes, he poked him in the back of the head with a stick.

Of course, Cones wasn't too lightly attacked, so he kept an eye on him, until he saw that he was really attacking with a stick, and finally ignored him and decided to focus on killing Ophelia first.

However, Cohen held the stick in his right hand, and suddenly there was a dagger in his left hand.

Eventually, Cornes was stabbed in the back of the head, where the nerves were most dense, so the blow directly paralyzed him to the ground.

Ophelia couldn't help but be overjoyed, and took the opportunity to kill him with the holy sword, and then, Cones was left with only the other half of his body.

The characteristics of his coexistence with the stand-in have been recognized by the two of them, and now he has no way to repeat the old tricks.

Seeing that he was in a one-on-two situation, Cornes realized that he could not get the slightest advantage, so he decided to use the last resort.

I saw him retreat again and again, and he was far away from the two, and Ophelia was quite tired from the battle just now, so she decided to take the opportunity to rest.

Cohen also thinks so, after all, Cones, who only has half of his strength left, is only the end of the crossbow, and he can completely wait for work in the future.

But unexpectedly, Cornes stretched out his hand to open a spatial crack, and then grabbed out a woman who was tied up by five flowers.

At this time, Byron, who was standing in the distance watching the battle, couldn't help but be shocked, because the other party had caught Agnes at some point.

"Oh, my dear Lord Byron, have you really changed your mind?" Cornes suddenly laughed sinisterly.

"Hmph, you should know that I'm a competitor to her, what's the use of holding her hostage?" Byron looked nonchalant.

Of course, some of this is true, and if Agnes died, it would have been easy for him to take the throne.

But then he wondered if he had allowed Agnes to die, would Ophelia still believe his change of heart?

Besides, even if Ophelia didn't mind, he couldn't face the people around him.

Because he found that the people were looking at Agnes with worried faces, hoping that Byron, who was a blood relative, would save her.

If this rival dies, he is likely to lose the hearts and minds of the people, so that even if he ascends to the throne, he will not be convinced, at least the people will not recognize a king who is so indifferent that he will not save his family.

As a result, Byron had to make what he thought was the most appropriate decision.
