Chapter 13: The Saints
Another exorcism missed, and the counterattack skill on the opposite side was thrown back. Landis hurriedly raised his sword to block, and although he relied on his combat instinct to protect the vital point, he still suffered a lot of damage, and hurriedly used holy magic to heal himself.
And if he chooses to shield himself first, the other party will preemptively release the same spell as him, even the same spell level. Obviously, it was deliberately used to mock him for his lack of skill and slow spell casting.
Seeing that more than half of his mana was consumed, but Oster didn't sweat a few drops, Landis gasped, and at this moment he finally understood that the opponent's strength was unfathomable, and he had fought back and forth before, and he was simply playing with himself.
However, Landis couldn't back down, this was a duel of honor, and in front of many of his subordinates, he couldn't swallow such a big ugly breath.
In the next battle, it was again repeated that Landis used a spell attack, and Oster avoided stealing, copied the counterattack, forced the opponent to use defensive or healing magic, and the spell library was +1.
[Holy Light Flash: +1.] Holy Light +1. Holy Shock +1. Glory Order +1. +1 for Dawn Light. 】
After a while, because Oster was not hit much, he picked up a dozen healing skills in vain and didn't use them. It's all flashing, big light, holy orders or something, the other party really heals himself when he drops a little blood, I'm afraid that he has all the milk riding talent, so afraid of pain.
Landis' hair was messy and sweaty, and the exhaustion of his magic power made him unsteady on his feet and his eyes glazed. He muttered;
"Impossible...... Since I was a child, I have been determined to revitalize my family, and I don't know how many times harder it is to train than most people. My talent has always been among the best in the noble monasteries. Whenever the Holy Light has an order, it is always at the forefront, and the dirty and tiring work is not a problem, and no one in my age can surpass me. Who the hell are you......"
"It doesn't matter who I am, it's more important to abolish you." Oster was distraught, and this rhetoric, combined with the man's actions, was disgusting. Moreover, the injuries suffered by the mother and son of Windsor made him have no time to care about anything else.
As he pondered how to end the battle as quickly as possible, Landis suddenly stabbed his sword into the ground, facing the sky on his back, raising his hands in the air, and shouting;
"Bless me, O Supreme Light, I am willing to pay any price for victory!"
As the energy in Landis's body gathered and poured into his hands, a golden light appeared in the sky. The USB flash drive interface in front of Oster's eyes is displayed;
[Light of Martyrdom, consumes health, shortens life, and strengthens the next spell.] 】
Isn't this the legendary suicide light, the effect is not the same as in the game, but it costs blood to exchange skills.
I saw blood oozing from the corners of Landis's mouth, and he channeled the spell with all his might. As an abundant burst of holy light energy descended from the sky, it spread out in all directions, and the surrounding ground instantly ignited a raging holy fire.
[Devotion, Type Height, Area Continuous Attack, Ground Effect.] Spell levels increased to: 5, 6, 7, 8...... Level 10. 】
Oster was taken aback, it seems that this guy was ruthless in order to win him, and directly doubled the spell level. In front of him is a large range of high-definition real version of the dedication technique, with a radius of more than ten meters. At this time, even the surrounding instructors and the serfs who were caught in the cage were all in the attack range.
He had seen this golden flame many times, smokeless, but warm enough to burn steel. A soldier fell to the ground with his shoes burned, burned his feet, and then instantly ignited by the flames, screaming and rolling in pain and soon losing his breath. The rest of the instructors scattered and fled.
Oster was very surprised, what does this guy want to do, even fight his own people? As he had already learned, in this world spells were indiscriminate; For example, the famous denier Luo Ning, a single firestorm resulted in four teammates.
On the ground, the liquid flame continued to flow, and the serf's cage was also surrounded by flames, and the people inside were anxiously beating the cage, shouting for help. Seeing that Windsor's mother and son were still unconscious, Oster was anxious to rush over, but was blocked by the flames, and he was in a hurry.
Landis had finished casting the spell and drew his sword on the ground, saying, "Aren't you very good at running?" Now it's all around with flames, see where you can run. You don't have any armor on you, you don't have weapons in your hands, and this time it's mine, right? ”
It seems that at the last moment, he finally woke up to his advantage of weapon attacks. In addition to the route with Oster, a large area around it is paved with consecration. Landis laughed miserably, poured the last of her holy light magic into the blade, and then roared and lunged towards Oster.
[Crusader Strike, Spell Level 5, Weapon Attack Enchantment, Type Sharp. 】
There were flames on both sides and behind Oster, there was no way to dodge, and the protective spells had been consumed in the battle just now, and all that was in his hands was attack and healing spells. If you eat this sword infused with magic effects, there is a chance that you will die on the spot, and you won't even have a chance to heal yourself.
Determined to win, Landis rushed forward, leaped high, and swung a sword with all his strength at the vital point of the neck of the defenseless Auster;
However, the separation of Oster's head did not materialize, and the blade of the sword was finally swung into the air.
Oster walked straight into the golden flames, and under Landis's gaze, he walked step by step to the serf cage, his whole body engulfed in flames.
Landis sneered, "I didn't want to be killed, so I finally chose to kill myself." It seems that you still have a little backbone, and I am impressed with you. ”
However, he was soon astonished to find that Oster had not even been burned with his hair;
The flames raged all around Auster, fangs and claws, but they all passed by as if they were avoiding him, and they couldn't hurt him at all. Oster stepped over the raging fire, walked to the cage, bent down to pick up the saber from the corpse of the instructor next to him, and cut the cage lock.
"What's going on?!"
Landis's eyes widened, and the serfs in the cage and the surrounding instructors stared wide-eyed. In their eyes, this is a living fire-fighting saint. In the legends of the Holy Religion, only the saint who is extremely pious and touches the heavens and the earth can cause the miracle of being unharmed.
And Oster is obviously not a saint, and if he has to say it, a liar is more suitable. On the interface of the USB flash drive in front of him, the veins and scope of the dedicated flames on the ground were clearly marked;
This spell seems to cover the entire field, but it actually relies on the constant flow of holy fire on the ground to attack. It will only be ignited if it is directly touched, and there is a small gap between them, so if you step on the gap between the ground and fire, you will not be harmed. Of course, for ordinary people, they can't see the range of spells, and as long as they touch a little ground fire, they will suffer full damage, and they can still be regarded as full-field skills.
In the open cage, Tommy opened his eyes, saw Oster, and said weakly, "Uncle Oster." Oster nodded to him, tucked his sword into his belt, and leaned over to pick up the unconscious Windsor.
By this time the flame had already lit the cage, and Tommy and the other serfs were too frightened to come out in front of them. Oster whispered to the crowd, "Trust me, follow me, walk in my footsteps, and don't make a mistake." ”
Looking at Oster, who stepped on the raging fire and was like a saint descending to earth, everyone was deeply impressed and obeyed. Oster held Windsor in his arms, led Tommy, followed by the serfs, and the group walked out of the range of the flame step by step, all unharmed.
The serfs who had escaped from the fire all knelt down in unison, crying out, "O saints, the true saints have come!" The surrounding soldiers were also shocked, and they were all devout believers, and many of them had weak legs and feet, and knelt down together.
Seeing this, Landis on the other side trembled, he roared, and finally couldn't help but rush into the sea of flames. However, he didn't have the ability to see the context of the spell clearly, and as soon as he took a few steps, he was burned by his own skills, screaming miserably, and seeing that the flames were about to engulf his whole body, he had to release his dedication.
Oster put Windsor on the ground, and pulled the wire out of her palm with all his might. Then he immediately used the Holy Light Technique to heal his wounds, only to see the light cover, and the wounds on Windsor's hands and body quickly shrunk and healed.
A roar was heard in the haze, and Windsor slowly opened her eyes to see Auster in front of him holding his hand to heal himself. Behind him, a paladin covered in black smoke was staggering and waving his sword.
As if he hadn't noticed, Oster continued to treat Windsor. It wasn't until Landis rushed close and the long sword was about to slash at his back that he unhurriedly put down Windsor's hand and pulled out the saber at his waist, and the dazzling golden light filled the sword.
A flash of golden light flashed, and the long sword in Landis's hand was knocked away with a blow and stuck on one side of the ground.
Landis had no mana left at this time and could only use ordinary sword strikes, while Oster copied level 5 crusader strikes; Although the paladin's sword is not the same as the cheap training sword, this is in the wizarding world.
Landis's chest heaved violently, and Oster's backhand blow not only knocked his weapon flying, but also left a deep scar on his breastplate.
A heart-piercing pain came, and the blow shattered the paladin's last confidence. Finally, he gave up the so-called knightly glory, covered his chest, and limped around and ran.
However, after running a dozen paces away, a line of golden flames blocked his way. Landis slowly lowered his head, seeing that all around him and under his feet were covered in flames.
Oster copied level 10 dedication and remotely dropped it at the feet of the paladin, who had run out of oil. Although Oster's education in his previous life had led him to try not to kill people, the worm was clearly not human; Everything he had done to the old serf man the day before was now returned as it was.
The flames climbed onto the legarmor and quickly covered her body, and Landis threw herself out, howling and screaming for help, but the flame would not be extinguished until the energy ran out. He danced and rolled until he was completely engulfed in fire, and fell to the ground, burned alive to a puddle of ashes.
