Chapter 68: First or second place (plus update 1)
In the arena, Andrea's dark element shield was attacked by William's continuous double swords, and was finally broken with one sword!
"Oops!" Just as Andrea was adjusting her body shape, William stabbed Andrea's knee joint with his sword, where the armor's defense was weak.
At one glance, Richard knew that Andrea was going to be defeated. It seemed that facing William, who had the physical fitness of a high-level knight and top swordsmanship, even he himself might not be able to fight in close combat with him.
However, his strengths are not physical fitness and close combat. It would definitely not be a wise move to engage in close combat with William.
I remember a famous saying from "Guiguzi" in my previous life, "Use one's own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses", which is the correct answer.
"Hey~" A thin line of blood shot out from the knee joint. Suddenly, Andrea staggered and his speed slowed down sharply.
As a senior knight, William knew the weak points of the knight's armor, so when he attacked, he used long sword thrusts instead of slashes.
Stab, concentrate your power on one point as much as possible, and can quickly penetrate the thick knight armor. Although Andrea's armor is not ordinary, the defense at the joints is the same as other ordinary knight armors. , are all relatively weak parts!
Under the full thrust of a senior knight, such a small wound was already a very good defense!
"Ding, ding, squeak~"
William struck three more swords, but Andrea only blocked two of them, and the knee he had just injured was hit by another sword.
This time, he could no longer stand still and knelt down on one knee.
William did not continue the attack, but quietly held the sword and looked at Andrea.
Andrea turned to look at the third-level wizard apprentice aside and raised her hand to admit defeat!
"William Bannings wins!" The third-level wizard apprentice in the ring loudly announced the result of the second game of the semi-finals, and then said: "An hour later, the third game of the semi-final round-robin will be held. Richard ·Clavell vs. William Bennings!"
"Bah bang bang!" The audience burst into warm applause, and the freshmen in the venue were also talking about it.
"William was so terrifying. He was fighting on top of Andrea the whole time!" "
Indeed, did you just hear what Andrea said? William seems to have the physical fitness of a high-level knight!"
"A high-level knight? That's too exaggerated. Come on! William is only sixteen or seventeen years old now."
"It seems that Richard is in danger in the next battle. William seems to have never made a full-strength attack until now, and there is no way to tell the difference." "
Yes, although Richard It's also very powerful, but at least there are traces to follow, and everyone knows the zero-level witchcraft he used in the previous games. Relatively speaking, it is easier to prevent." "That's true. Although the top four are in a round-robin format
, But the next game is actually the final. No matter who wins, William or Richard, he will definitely be the chief. Let's wait and see!" In the stands, Karina smiled and teased
Mei Luo: "Tsk, your little brother will be here soon. We are about to compete for the top spot among freshmen. Are you happy? As I told you before, you have to hurry up. If you like it, you have to take the initiative!" "How can you?
By the way, Karina, you said Richard can fight Can you beat this William?" Mei Luo said this, but her head was already lowered and her cheeks turned red.
An hour later, the third-level wizard apprentice announced: "The third game of the semi-final round robin, Richard Clavell versus William Bannings!" The noisy
duel field fell silent instantly, and only William and Richard were seen in the room. Stand still on the ring.
"Richard, Andrea disappointed me last time, please don't let me down again!" William said with a smile.
William didn't push himself too hard this time and had already taken off the weight-bearing bracelet before the finals.
"You'll know after you try it." Richard responded calmly.
"The game begins!" the third-level wizard apprentice shouted loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, Richard shot out three black-feathered arrows. With the blessing of the giant bow, the three black rays shot straight at William like three lightning bolts. They were multiple shots.
In the blink of an eye, William's figure quickly swayed three times, leaving three afterimages in place, and he calmly dodged Richard's multiple shots!
Suddenly, Richard's expression turned solemn. This was a situation he had never encountered before.
"It's a very fast arrow, but unfortunately, it's not fast enough for me. If you want to hit me, then go faster!"
William said looking quite relaxed.
Richard's pupils shrank. Faced with William's verbal provocation, he knew that the other party was definitely not as relaxed as his words. This was more of a mind-attack tactic to disintegrate the opponent's will to fight.
If you don't have a strong will to fight, you will be disturbed by such words, quickly expose your flaws, and be easily defeated.
However, sometimes if you want to successfully hit the enemy, you don't have to be fast yourself. You can also choose to slow down the enemy.
Even when Richard used his proficient slowness technique, a black light suddenly shrouded William, causing William's speed to slow down by at least half.
This time, when William dodged Richard's arrow again, it was very difficult and he was no longer as calm as before.
"Yes, Richard, you are the first one who is qualified to let me use witchcraft." At this time, William said a little annoyed.
I saw William performing zero-level witchcraft on himself for the first time. The casting speed was extremely fast. After a while, two groups of black mist clung to William's legs like living creatures.
"Hey! Is this a zero-level witchcraft shadow dance step that few people learn?" A second-level wizard apprentice in the stands asked the person next to him.
"Yes, this zero-level witchcraft mainly improves one's own flexibility, by about 30%. In other words, the higher my flexibility, the more beneficial it is to perform this witchcraft on myself. However, if one's own
flexibility It is already relatively poor, so the effect of this witchcraft will be very poor." His companion explained.
"I understand, no wonder William would choose such a zero-level witchcraft, because for him, the effect of this witchcraft can increase his flexibility to the extreme." The second-level wizard apprentice immediately nodded. He nodded, indicating that he fully understood his companion's explanation.
Now, when William moved again, he returned to his original ghostly agility, and he couldn't see the figure at all!
It almost completely offset the impact of the slowness technique that Richard had previously released on him.
The figure flickered, and once again dodged Richard's arrow approaching the speed of sound!
"Richard, is that all you have? If so, then you lose!"
In an instant, William rushed forward, swung his swords rapidly, rolled up a storm of blades, and attacked Richard. It was the whirlwind he was good at. fencing.
Richard said calmly: "Of course!"
After saying that, he no longer held back, mobilized the extremely pure mental power in his mind, and instantly unleashed a secondary mental shock!
Suddenly, William was stunned, and the two swords he was waving rapidly in his hands also stopped. The secret skill of the whirlwind swordsmanship Blade Storm that he had just launched seemed to be stuck and was abandoned halfway!
"It's this witchcraft that caused Davos to be killed instantly because of it!" A freshman in the field couldn't help shouting.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Richard used the weakness technique for the first time!
