Section 329 Compensation
Lalia is no stranger to this feeling. In those battles in the underworld of Eagle Falcon City, she had encountered this kind of thing many times. Whenever she takes out the cannon fodder in her way and goes straight to the target, the target will occasionally let out this kind of scream.
Of course, they didn't shout such meaningless words as "Split Sky", but "Bow and arrow!" and "Musket!" or something. It's actually a trap to use yourself as bait. Her Majesty played such a trick on the Chaos Wizard last time, and almost lost herself. Those bosses in the underworld, those ruthless villains, of course, use this trick more frequently.
But strictly speaking, this shouting is completely meaningless. Because "shouting out" and "actually happening" are two different things. For example, the leaders who ambushed Lalia with bows and muskets had no connection between their shouts and their men's fire—they had already set them up, so whether they shouted or not, their men would do it. Of course, there are also some subordinates who won't do it whether they shout or not.
So, it's really just a knee-jerk reaction...... Of course, this reaction doesn't actually cause any after-effects, so no one trains themselves to overcome it.
Lalia stopped her forward streak. At this time, it was not her sanity that controlled Laria's body - it was not that she heard this familiar cry from Xingke's mouth, so she immediately understood that the other party had a foreshadowing, so she chose to stop the attack to avoid her front for a while - but her instinct. An instinctive, irresistible instinct sent her tumbling forward, dodging an attack that would have sliced her in two.
"Ahh Even though she was a leader who had long been accustomed to seeing swords and swords (although she was not good at fighting herself), the qiē that happened in front of her still made her terrified. Now she understands that she really underestimated her opponent.
The whip in Xingke's hand was no longer a whip at some point, and the light blue light visible to the naked eye—the light from the power of magic—wrapped around the whip, stiffening the otherwise soft whip. Now, instead of a soft, weapon used to whip enemies, it has become a spear...... No, it should be said that the long sword.
That's right, a longsword. Because it didn't hit the target just now, the end of the whip "slashed" at the corner of the roadside, a broken car that was abandoned here by someone who didn't know who left it.
The old, but definitely hardwood, car was cut in half.
This...... What is this? Laria had come to her senses. The wrecked car, which was already dilapidated and now could not be maintained at all, disintegrated, and the crisp sound of wood and stone on the stone pavement was made by parts and wood fragments.
Rhodia has seen many difficult people, but she has never seen this type. This way...... It's like wielding a sword of incredible length. Moreover, this overcomes the original biggest flaw of the whip, which is the problem of insufficient lethality. This lethality ......
A broken car was cut open, and the end of the whip also left clear cut marks on the wall. Is this a whip? This is a hanging, right?
Laria understood immediately. Even though she was experienced in combat, she realized at this moment what a big disadvantage she was going to face. "One inch long and one inch strong" is not a theory on paper. This is also why the army is the most popular, and the most mainstream equipment is almost all spears, halberds and other long weapons.
Laria's heart froze. In the next moment, even she almost lost the belief in victory. After this change, her old skills at dodging the whip were useless - Laria had been observing the movements of the whip's arm to determine the whip's trajectory. This is an uncommon technique, but it is precisely this technique that allows her to move freely in the whistling whip shadow and dodge.
In the next round of attacks, Laria can only dodge with instinct and observation. Not to mention whether it's feasible or not (combat instincts, while useful, are not always effective, because they get weaker and weaker in repeated encounters with danger), at least it will keep her full focus on dodging attacks, and not always have the ability to fight back as before.
The battle becomes a wholehearted dodge parry, and the goal of the battle is no longer to defeat the opponent, but only to delay one's own defeat.
Rhodia was also shocked and lost the opportunity to call a halt. Now, all four women remained silent and confrontational for the time being, and none of them moved or spoke.
A piece of vehicle part rolled all the way to Laria's feet.
The look of shock and panic slowly faded from Laria's face, replaced by a smile.
After the initial shock, she sensed the problem. After sending this blow, Xingke didn't take advantage of the victory to chase after him...... Moreover, her expression and body language clearly show that she is not giving her opponent a chance to admit defeat in a condescending manner, but that she is trying to recover. Xingke saw sweat on his forehead and was short of breath.
It turned out to be such a blow...... Will it be a big burden on her, too? Laria quickly realized that with such an attack, Starmoment should only be able to deliver two or three hits. This is also the reason why the star carved this blow at the most critical moment.
Well, that's actually normal. Let's be honest, face an opponent who is equally good at magic and martial arts...... Now Lalia also has to admit that in fact, the twins do have the qualifications to match with Ashrufat.
...... Warning: "Rifting the Sky" causes a physical and magical burden beyond the limit......
Xingqi breathed heavily, trying to calm down. The blow just now was actually dodged by the other party, and she didn't know whether she should be happy or frustrated. If it had just hit, the result of the contest would have been out - but then the woman named Laria would have died.
Then, Rhodia is equivalent to forming a life-and-death hatred with them.
Although it is said that Rhodia tricked the two of them here, the meaning of "lesson lesson" is very obvious. The relationship between the two sides is not so bad that they don't share the sky. Otherwise, it would probably not be Lalia who was waiting for the twins, but a round of weapons such as bows, arrows, muskets, etc.
Xingke himself doesn't care for the time being, but Hoshimi doesn't have the ability to escape in this situation.
This means that if Starsign kills Laria, she will have to kill Rodia as well in order to prevent retaliation. Of course, this matter does not seem to be very difficult, but there is a little queen behind Rhodia. No matter how powerful the star is, can you still kill the little queen? This is the so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body.
"You should ......" spoke Laria. She had regained her feet and returned to a half-squat position, a preparatory position for an instant burst. "You can't attack twice in a row, can you?"
"What do you say?" replied Starke, coldly.
"You're amazing. Laria raised her sword, "But if the two of us must decide a winner here, then you must die!"
The meaning of her words is obvious, because of the relative proximity of each other, this battle cannot tolerate any release. The outcome of the battle, if there is any outcome of the battle, will inevitably go beyond the acquiescence of both sides, and it will end only when one side is killed.
This is not the result that Rhodia wanted. She wanted to teach the twins a lesson, but if she killed them...... This becomes a battle with Ashrufat. Yes, Ishrufat and the twins were just "fiancés", but she knew that if the twins were killed, then Ashrufat would definitely be traced to the end. When the time comes...... God knows what will happen, but there is certainly no good fruit for Rhodia to eat.
"I've never met anyone like you. Xingke actually agreed with the other party's words. She knows herself best, on the surface she seems to be safe and sound, and even most of the time she presses the other party to fight, but now...... Lalia is in the same state as she was when she started, but most of her body has been consumed.
This woman ...... What kind of material is it made of......? She is also a researcher of dark arts, and has also independently figured out the technology to use black magic to transform the human body? If so, it means that Laria's black magic skills are far superior to those of the twins......
And Rhodia...... Could it be that the relationship between Rhodia and Lalia ...... It's the same relationship between her and Hoshimi?
However, although she had doubts in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, the study of black magic is taboo, and it was because of this that their sisters were chased and killed for thousands of miles, and they almost died. Even if he escaped in the end, he was cautious and kept a low profile for more than ten years. In fact, if it weren't for the church's accidental capture of the base camp by Greenskins, and the destruction of almost all of Greenskins' archives, the twins would never have come to Eagle City.
"I've never seen anything like you......" Laria replied. A smile appeared on her face, not a sneer, but a heartfelt appreciation. Ever since she had gone from an ordinary girl to a Scarlet Rose, it was the first time she had seen a woman who could match her.
What's even more rare is that the power of Star Carving does not come from vampires. This means...... An opportunity, perhaps?
The hostility between the two sides has visibly dissolved. Rhodia sensed this, too, and before she could do something, Laria suddenly turned her head and shouted.
"Sister, this time, it's a tie. ”
With that, Laria walked to the side, picked up her knocked helmet and put it on her head. She walked to the side, her body quickly fading into the shadows, and she was immediately out of sight.
"This girl...... ......," Rhodia muttered softly, but also put down a big stone in her heart. She was also worried just now. If Laria had just made a mistake...... I'm afraid this will develop into a scene she doesn't want to see.
Sure enough, is he too impulsive? Usually relying too much on his sister's strength to solve problems, he ignores this risk. Rhodia thought as she looked at the twins. For some reason, the twins don't look as obtrusive as they used to be. Perhaps this was just a conceptual shift - before Rhodia felt that the two of them were completely unworthy of Ashrufat, but now she felt that it must be said that the two sides were also a good match.
The twins are of course in a similar mood. Hoshimi was pinching his nervous nails into his flesh just now, and now he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Lalia take the initiative to leave.
But in terms of mouth, Rhodia didn't intend to let the other party go.
"Hmph...... Since it's a tie...... Well, I'll give you a chance!" she said, not noticing that her tone had softened somehow. "However, you must compensate me for my losses. You have injured so many of my men, you must pay for the medical expenses!"
If not all of the problems, at least some of them must be solved.
