The entire room was covered in blood.

Lucy's headless body was still standing, blood gushing from the severed neck.

Standing not far behind Lucy, Julia bathed in her blood and sat on the ground with her whole body limp. Before I knew it, warm liquid overflowed from my crotch and flowed all over the ground.

Primo threw away his shield and roared towards Skeletron, leaping high, slashing his sword with both hands and smashing it at Skeletron with all his might. Skeletron simply swung his hammer at Primo with ease, and threw him a few meters away. Primo fell next to the High Priest, rolled over, and continued to roar, "Skeletron, I'm going to kill you, kill you!" "While frantically attacking the High Priests. It seems that he can't bear the tragic death of his sister in front of his eyes, and has fallen into a state of madness and can't recognize who is who.

Skeletron walked up to a limp Julia, ignoring Kanna's attacks on him and raising the mace that represented his royal power.

Edward was still standing in the position where he had fought Skeletron before, and said coldly, "Hey! King. What kind of king are you? The king who fled from battle? ”

Skeletron's hand holding the mace stopped in mid-air.

Edward continued, "I'm still standing here at the battle with you, why did you get there? Because you're so good at escaping, you're letting your son's blood flow all over ......"

Edward's taunt wasn't finished yet. Enraged, Skeletron rushed to the front, grabbed Edward's neck with his left hand and lifted him into the air. I saw that the power gathered in Skeletron's hands was getting bigger and bigger, and he was about to break Edward's neck.

Suddenly, a silver bolt of lightning fell from the sky. It turned out that Kanna saw the skeleton rushing towards Edward, and immediately predicted where he would arrive, and used [War Trample] to jump into the air. At this point, the position that fell from the sky was right next to Skeletron. When Kanna landed on the ground, she grabbed Ashley with both hands and plunged vertically into the ground, and the surrounding surface shattered like a spider web. The impact of this [War Trampling] was so great that it shocked the huge Skeleton King several meters and fell to the ground. Edward flew in the other direction and rolled on the ground several times.

Kanna pulled Ashley out and straightened up. Turning his head slowly, he stared at the big eyes that glowed with blood, and looked down at Skeletron who had fallen to the ground on his right. said, "Hey." I say. Don't ignore me all the time. ”

Skeletron slowly got up and walked over to Kanna. Looking down at Kanna, who was no taller than his chest, she said in a low voice, "Come on." ”

The ominous aura emanating from the [Despair Aura] on Skeletron's body was even stronger, pressing on the shoulders of everyone in the room like a thousand pounds of burden. As a result, the reaction of the crowd is becoming more and more sluggish, and the morale is on the verge of collapse. But when the heavy aura invaded Canna's surroundings, it seemed to be evasive, circling around her body. It turned out that the endless battle intent emanating from the depths of Kanna's soul enveloped her whole body, tearing apart all the ominous aura that approached like a raging wind.

I saw Kanna raise her head, smile, and reply fiercely: "Come on." ”

The two of them took a stand at the same time.

Skeletron holds the mace in both hands and places it on the right side of his body. The hammer exudes the chill of death.

Kanna stood to her right, sword in her right hand hanging from the ground. The left hand is placed horizontally in front of the chest, and the palm of the hand is naturally relaxed. Ashley burns a warm flame.

This special stance, which Kanna calls "Broken Wing", was learned after she had an in-depth discussion of her combat experience with her sword bard teacher Isidore in the Elven Realm. At the time, Isidore mentioned that almost all powerful elven warriors, including the Sword Dancer, rarely used two-handed weapons. On the one hand, most of the two-handed weapons are too heavy for the light body and superb combat skills of the elven warriors. Another aspect is that when holding a weapon with both hands, the range and angle of movement of the weapon is much smaller than that of a single-handed weapon, which makes it difficult for a two-handed weapon to exert its combat advantages.

After returning home, Kanna spent a long time thinking about it. Isidore was absolutely right, two-handed swords are indeed not conducive to showing the superiority of sword skills. So, why did the legendary strongest sword dancer, "Melodious Jeka", use a two-handed greatsword? You know, the two-handed greatsword is as cumbersome as a two-handed blunt weapon. There are also many elves in the elven kingdom who have gotten along with "melodious Jeka", such as his swordsmanship teacher Barnett. However, consulting with these seniors will not give an accurate answer to this question. If the other elven seniors can explain the method of using the two-handed giant sword of "Melodious Jeka", it means that his swordsmanship has been seen through. If his swordsmanship will be seen through, why is he still called the strongest sword dancer of all time? If his swordsmanship could be learned, why was there never a second well-known sword dancer who also used a two-handed greatsword? Therefore, this problem can only be understood by oneself, and cannot be turned to others.

After a lot of experimentation and trying. Kanna learned a new technique of using the sword, which was to use one hand when holding and drawing the sword. After the sword is fixed, use your other hand to increase your strength. In this way, not only does the attack strength of the two-handed sword be retained, but the range and angle of the attack are also comparable to that of the one-handed sword. Thanks to Kanna, she has always adhered to her own kendo and never blindly followed the strength of others. If she, like the other sword dancers, gave up the two-handed sword in favor of a dual-wielding one-handed sword in favor of the ultimate in sword skills. Now facing an enemy like Skeletron, who is as hard as iron, the damage will be like a massage.

At this point, Skeletron's hammer swept in, aiming at Kanna's waist. This is a common attack with heavy weapons, targeting the middle of the enemy, making it more difficult for the enemy to dodge in any direction. No matter how bulky the weapon is or how sharp the enemy's body is, as long as you keep attacking in the middle of the attack, there will always be a time to hit completely.

Kanna fell to her knees on her left knee and pressed her upper body down to avoid the hammer blow. At the same time, the right arm turns, twisting the sword on the right side of the body to the left. At the moment when the hammer swept over his head, his left foot stood up violently, and his left hand held the hilt of the sword further to the right of his right hand in reverse and pulled it back.

Not far away, Edward, who had just struggled to get up, was stunned. Because Kanna's sword went from the bottom left to the top right, but it avoided the retrograde slash angle of Skeletron's right arm, and the power was so fierce that it was unprecedented. Skeletron's upper body plate armor was split open, and the skull was completely sliced from the wing of the nose through the left eye socket to the left forehead. The broken crown fell to the ground with a few crunching sounds.

Skeletron took a step back with his left foot. In great pain, he covered the left side of his face with his hand. Hit hard by Kanna's fierce slash, it seemed to make him forget that the undead don't feel pain.

The high-ranking priests who were fighting with Primo, Henry, Garcia, and Monica seemed to sense that the king was threatened. Immediately, he carried the attack hard and cast the ninth-order divine technique [Holy Seal Technique: Fear] on the ground. The four enemy players are all within the coverage of the Holy Seal, and the Holy Seal is directly triggered when it is printed on the ground. Primo, Garcia, and Monica are affected by the Holy Seal, and they fall into a state of fear and flee everywhere.

Most psychic disadvantage states in the world of Xenomorph are only effective if the enemy's morale is extremely low. But the state of shock is morale-defying. For example, before the war, Henry's inability to move, and Julia, who should have fled in fear, was paralyzed on the ground and unable to move, all because of the shock of Skeletron's aura. The Knight faction's aura is powerful, and in this battle, Henry has always used the [Aura of Faith]. This aura increases allies' maximum morale and resists morale reduction. However, under the pressure of Skeletron's [Despair Aura], the morale of all teammates except Kanna still fell to the bottom. In fact, if it weren't for the presence of a powerful knight like Henry, the morale of many teammates would have collapsed long ago.

At this time, being hit by a powerful magic like [Holy Seal: Fear], Henry did not run away out of fear, not because he still had a high morale. Rather, it is because the high-level knight class has a special ability [Heroic Light], which makes the knight immune to many common mental disadvantages, including fear.

Worried that his teammates would be mortally attacked by the enemy in a state of fear, Henry immediately stopped his attack and began to cast the skill [Immunity to Fear]. This is a magic-like skill unique to the Knight faction, and its effect is stronger than the Priest's Sixth-Order Divine Skill [Eliminate Fear]. 【Eliminate Fear】Divine Skill can increase the morale of a single target, and if the morale returns to a certain level, it will immediately eliminate fear. And [Immune to Fear] can directly ignore morale, allowing all teammates within a certain radius to directly remove fear and be immune for a period of time. Of course, the more powerful the skill, the longer it will take to cast. After chanting a long chant-like word, a golden circle of light emanated from Henry, and the covered Primo and Garcia lifted their state of fear. However, at this time, Monica ran too far away, and was already out of the effective range of the skill. She had run to a corner of the room, running into the impenetrable corner. Similar to most skills and spells, [Immune to Fear] cannot be used continuously. Fortunately, Monica is also far away from the enemy, so there should be no danger.

From the triggering of the Sacred Seal of Fear, until Primo and Garcia woke up from their unfavorable mental state and teamed up with Henry to launch a new offensive against the High Priests. The High Priest has cast three divine spells on Skeletron: the fourth-order [Blessing Technique: Attribute Increase], the eighth-order [Advanced Acceleration Technique], and the eighth-order [Immortal Oath]. [Blessing: Attribute Increase] can increase one of the target's main attributes, and the High Priest has chosen to increase Skeletron's constitution and increase the extra life limit. [Advanced Acceleration] increases the target's movement, attack, and channeling speed. [Oath of Immortality] increases a large amount of physical and magical resistance when the target's life is threatened, and doubles the effect when the target's life is in danger. In addition, the high-level priest also used the sixth-order divine skill [Blessing Weapon: Heavy Damage] on himself, which can make the priest's main weapon attach the power of blessing, and if the next weapon attack hits, it will additionally attach a high impact type of physical damage; If it is missed, the effect disappears.

Of course, without the use of detection magic, everyone naturally would not be able to know what kind of magic the High Priest used. You can only fight first and then talk about it.

Primo slashed at the High Priest's right rib, and Garcia slammed into the High Priest's chest. At the same time, Henry's two-handed greatsword slashed down at the High Priest's skull. Ignoring Primo and Garcia's attacks, the High Priest raised his shield to block Henry's greatsword and struck Henry in the left rib with a single blow. Henry was a heavily armored knight, and a blow from a one-handed hammer would not have caused much damage to him. However, due to the divine technique [Blessing Weapon: Heavy Damage], Henry instantly broke four ribs, one of which was inserted into his lungs. Henry spat blood from his mouth and fell to the ground, convulsed for a moment before he fell unconscious.

Primo and Garcia kept attacking the High Priests. The enemy was unmoved, and cast the eighth-order divine skill [Holy Light Sword Ring] against the damage. I saw that countless blades of holy light suddenly appeared around it, and began to rotate rapidly around its body. Garcia couldn't dodge, and his right arm and chest had been cut to a bloody blur. Coupled with the left arm that was previously strangled by the whirlwind, Garcia could no longer use both hands, and his body was seriously injured, and he collapsed straight and fainted. Primo narrowly escaped, unable to attack Skeletron due to the blades of holy light around his enemies, and is considering whether he should turn to attack Skeletron. However, if he dodges the high priests, he will also attack others. Now that many of your teammates are unable to move, the consequences of being close to an enemy surrounded by the blade of the Holy Light Sword will be devastating.

In a dilemma, the High Priest was suddenly frozen in place. Monica, who had already woken up from her state of fear, used the elemental seventh-order magic [Ice Spear Technique] on him. Then, immediately use the fifth-order magic of the magic energy system [Clear Magic] on him. This spell has a chance to clear the magic status of all units in the target area, increasing the chance of applying the status to casters below their level, and vice versa. A white light flashed, and the [Holy Light Sword Ring] was still there, and the clearing failed. Monica continues to use low-level elemental magic to attack the Skeleton Priest. The reason why I didn't choose high-level magic, as mentioned earlier, most high-level elemental magic is a large area of damage, which is really not conducive to being used in this crowded space.

The High Priest, who had escaped from the frozen state, did not intend to chase Primo, but ran towards Garcia, who had fallen to the ground. At this moment, another white light flashed, and the [Holy Light Sword Ring] on his body disappeared. Primo looked intently and saw Julia standing behind Garcia, her left hand open facing the High Priest. It turned out that Julia, who had finally struggled out of her state of shock, fear, despair, and sadness, used the fourth-order magic [Remove Magic] on the High Priest, which could be used on a single target, and must remove a beneficial magic state from the enemy or an unfavorable magic state from a teammate. If the target has multiple statuses, remove one at random.

The High Priest was about to hammer Julia's head when he was knocked away by a [shield strike] from Primo who picked up his shield and rushed over. Primo fought the priest in attack and defense as he stepped back to bring him away from the wounded. Julia takes the opportunity to use healing magic on Henry and Garcia.

Under Julia's treatment, Garcia is fine, but remains unconscious. Although Henry is also out of danger, the situation is not optimistic, the magic can only heal part of the wound, the bone inserted into the lung cannot be pulled out by the magic spell, he needs a surgeon. Julia still has a few healing spells that can be cast remotely, and she's ready to sneak up to Kanna and use them on her.
