Chapter 251 Enchanted Armor VS Protective Barrier
Even though the game is about to begin, the discussion about the outcome is still in the ascendant, and many people are hesitant about who should bet on winning.
The gap in strength between the two is obvious to all, but since Raven dares to make such an arrangement, he must have something to rely on.
But the problem is that Judra is not unprepared.
Just after the match between Akori and Wesasin, everyone saw Akori’s strength.
Every player who wants to compete for the championship begins to strengthen his immediate combat power in various ways.
It is said that Judra not only purchased a second-level enchanted long sword, but also spent more than 4,700 gold coins to purchase 3 magic talismans at a high price!
This forces people to weigh where they should bet their money.
Raven's figure appeared in the box early, and Montreal was the first to ask: "Raven, you arranged for Eric to play today, what surprises did you prepare for us?"
" I heard that Baron Raven is training a hippogryph. "Anthony also asked: "Is it a war pet?"
Combining battles between knights and war pets is also a competitive tradition, but it is not very popular in the Nord province. It is more common in the southern provinces where Warcraft resources are richer.
Earl Tyrone rubbed his chin: "You kidnapped an alchemist from Men'en City. Is it an alchemy potion?"
Raven waved his hand quickly: "Seniors, please allow me. I'll give it a try, the game is about to start anyway, what's the point if the mystery is revealed at this time?"
His attitude made it difficult for several people to ask further questions, but also made them more curious.
Similarly curious is Judra.
Before the game, Vesazin and Sereva had approached him and said that Raven's arrangement clearly looked down on him, and they had a vague intention of pulling him together to fight against Raven.
But Judra politely invited the two people out.
He knows what kind of person Raven is. The outside world's impression of Raven as "young, promising and good at business" is not wrong, but there is one thing they don't understand.
That's Raven's caution.
As Raven's old neighbor, Judra watched Raven develop step by step. He knew very well that Raven would not take action unless he was sure and fully prepared.
For example, the expedition to the Bloody Highlands seemed like a crazy decision, but before that Raven had been training for a year. The business alliance and Skyhawk Platform that followed were all because he had enough confidence to take the lead in forming and promoting them.
Now at Raven's wedding, at the competition hosted by Raven, Eric, as the only remaining contestant of the Griffith family, cannot be arranged here for that ridiculous reason. One game.
Taking a step back, if Lei Wen really despised himself, he should have sent someone to reconcile with him and let him fake the match.
But Raven didn't do that.
This shows that Raven understands and respects himself, knows that he will never be bribed, and only wants to rush to the championship.
"Then let me see..." Judra heard Yingla's voice outside. He put on his helmet, grabbed his sword, and slowly walked out of the lounge.
"...What surprise have you prepared for me!"
The fence opened and the sun filtered in. Eric walked into the arena amidst cheers and screams, and then he looked Arriving at Eric's heavy figure.
At this moment, his pupils tightened and he was shocked: "Second level... enchanted armor!?"
The azure mist iron armor was densely covered with complex magic patterns, no need to When the holder uses fighting spirit, he will spontaneously exhale a soft magical halo. Along with Eric's movements, it is like a dreamy cloud floating in the arena!
That is undoubtedly the aura that only second-level enchantments can have.
Judra couldn't help but whisper to herself: "Raven...how did you do it!?"
The same question appears in the mind of every knowledgeable person.
Jon, the third-level magician worshiped by the Slater family, was also sitting at the audience. His pupils were firmly locked on the enchanted armor and he couldn't move his eyes away at all.
Only as a magician, he understands how difficult it is.
Jon would rather make 10 level 3 enchanted weapons than 1 set of level 2 enchanted armor.
The workload, mental strength requirements, and enchantment understanding requirements of the two are not at the same level at all.
The higher the level of armor, the more valuable it is.
The fourth-level enchanted armor is enough to be an heirloom of the Fox family, but the Slater family, who is also an earl, does not have armor of the same level.
Most third-level mages cannot make a set of second-level enchanted armor.
Raven is only 23 years old, how did she do it? !
Even counting the time since he became a second-level mage, less than two years have passed!
"Uncle Jon, Uncle Jon?" Viscount Hyde awakened the third-level magician: "This...couldn't it be Raven's handiwork?"
"Except him Who else?" Jon looked bitter, feeling that his life had been in vain: "Although Nancy is now a third-level magician, she has never been good at it. He is good at enchanting, but he has some knowledge in potions; and the magician from the Fox family is also an old acquaintance of mine. He has trouble making second-level enchanted weapons, let alone this full set of second-level armor!”
Hyde frowned, surprised and curious at the same time: "This... second-level enchanted armor, is it really that difficult to make?"
"If it wasn't difficult, your set of foggy iron armor wouldn't still be in my enchanting room now." Jon sighed: "If enchanting was compared to building a house, then the enchanted weapon is just building a thatched house, and the armor, But they want to build a castle!”
In the box, the four bosses behaved relatively calmly, but everyone made a little extra move.
Anthony shook his right leg, Montreal licked his lips, Tyrone held his hands together, and even Thomas, who was always calm, had a slight twitch in the corner of his eye.
All of their eyes fell on Raven, because they all knew how precious a set of second-order armor was.
A simple example, if this set of armor is put on the market, it is enough to exchange for 5 pseudo-third-level weapons!
Raven didn't look back, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he shook the wine glass in his hand, enjoying the admiration of everyone.
This is indeed the reward he deserves. In order to make this set of armor, he spent a lot of time and energy. He didn’t have much time to spend with Nancy during the honeymoon, and his progress on the staff was even worse. At about 75%.
Just for this one!
In the center of the arena, Eric and Judra collided with weapons.
"No matter how good the equipment is, it depends on the person who uses it." Judra repeated what Akori once said: "Can you control this equipment?"
"I will never disappoint Lord Baron." Eric said solemnly.
"Okay!" Judra retracted her weapon and said solemnly: "Eric, before Raven came, the only person in the entire Eagle Territory that I admired was you."
“Let me see now, under Raven’s hands, how far have you grown? What a situation!"
Eric put down his visor: "Then please give me some advice, Baron Judra."
The two separated and stood on both sides of the field, accompanying each other. Hearing Ingra's voice announcing the start of the duel, he also raised his fighting spirit.
Silver-colored fighting spirit spurted out from the gaps in Eric's armor like smoke, and immediately fell down like stars and submerged into the armor.
The silver light shines on the armor, and the flowing light merges with Eric's fighting spirit, like snow melting into water, harmoniously integrated.
The original azure color receded and began to expand, thicken, and enlarge. All the gaps were filled, filled with silver luster, and the armor almost grew in size by half. Eric became a tower of more than three meters. The tall steel giant!
The long sword in his hand turned into a giant sword as wide as a door!
This was originally the basic use of steel fighting spirit, but under Eric's use, it became as indestructible as a fighting skill.
There was a gleam in Judra's eyes. Although this second-level enchanted armor was extraordinary, Eric himself also showed how sophisticated he was in controlling fighting spirit!
"You are qualified to be my opponent!"
As these words fell to the ground, Judra's green flame fighting energy exploded, and the long sword in his hand was swallowing fire snakes.
He put his hand on the sword, and the fire jumped out like an elf, and then exploded.
Judra opened his mouth to swallow the flame, and then spurted it out from his nostrils. This time, his whole body seemed to be burning alive, and even the red tassel on his head was burning like a flame. combustion.
In the stands, Viscount John sat up straight, his eyes a little red: "The air-swallowing technique!"
The air-swallowing technique, a combat skill inherited from the Wharton family, will never be leaked to others, Judra's Father Angel once mastered it.
This kind of combat skill will continuously and quickly consume the user's fighting spirit, but it can improve its ability in all aspects. When used at the third level and two stars, it is enough to compete with the third level and four stars!
Viscount John always thought that this kind of fighting skill could only be driven by the fighting spirit of the earth. Unexpectedly, Judra could actually drive it with the fighting spirit of fire.
It seems that the outcome of this battle is unknown!
Judra, who was wrapped in flames, slowly spit out a mouthful of flames, swung the long sword in his hand, and a stream of fiery fighting spirit flew out, heading straight for Eric.
The air was twisted wherever it passed, leaving a layer of scorching marks on the ground.
Seeing this, Eric raised his sword and slashed fiercely. A silver glow greeted him. Two rays of fighting spirit collided in the center of the field, and suddenly the sky exploded with iron rain! The warm-up is complete.
Eric buried his head, dug two deep holes in the ground with his feet, shot out, and rushed up!
The earth was shaking slightly at this moment.
With his momentum, the steel fighting spirit continued to rise in him, getting thicker and thicker, all gathering on the giant sword in his hand!
"Well done!" Judra grinned, with a slight impact of fighting spirit. A gem on his chest quietly shattered, and then, an invisible shield with distinct longitude and latitude spread out around him.
This is the "steel protective barrier" he purchased at a high price before the game, which is enough to suppress the steel fighting spirit below level three!
Then, suddenly rushed forward!
The two collided without any pretense!
The giant sword in Eric's hand cut into the shield without any hindrance, but the steel fighting spirit originally attached to the sword disappeared at this moment, and the body shrank back to its normal size, and Jude The long swords covered in green flames in La La's hands collided!
When——
As if a copper bell was ringing, a huge sound wave spread, and the fire splashed, the ground beneath their feet broke and surged, as if something was exploding underground. open!
Judra looked stunned, surprised by Eric's terrifying strength.
With the blessing of the air-swallowing strategy, his combat power is now equal to that of a third-level four-star, and there is a steel protective barrier to weaken Eric. But even so, he still feels numb, and the enchanted long sword in his hand has appeared. bending!
But he finally took the blow.
The fighting spirit swelled, and the green flames rolled back along the sword in Eric's hand, wrapping his entire body in it!
Flame has always restrained steel!
Eric was trapped by the heat wave, and his movements were slightly slow for a moment. Judra stepped sideways and ducked past Eric. The long sword in her hand pulled Eric's side ribs and cut him into pieces. A crack opened, but it was completely unable to break through!
"Tsk!" Judra frowned. The strength of the second-level enchanted armor exceeded his expectations, but it could not stop his offensive.
After standing firm, he didn't even turn around. He turned the sword and stabbed backward from under his ribs. That position was Eric's back!
At this moment, half of Eric's body was wrapped in a steel protective barrier, and all the fighting spirit he had expelled was swallowed up by the barrier, and the burning flames on his body made him even more anxious and crazy.
But his movements were not scattered at all. Instead, he took a deep breath and concentrated all his fighting energy in one place.
On his back, a flame suddenly went out, and the armor became as smooth as a mirror. It was the first-level combat skill he had mastered and used to this day, Mirror Shield.
Judra's long sword stabbed the armor fiercely. Before the flames could spread, a surging steel fighting spirit was activated. The sharp power stirred and shattered the flames, and also caused the sword in Judra's hand to There was a violent vibration!
But this time, the steel fighting spirit failed to climb up Judra's arm, and was suppressed and swallowed by the barrier. However, the power that followed made Judra unable to control it, and his whole body was like a It bounced out like a pebble!
In mid-air, flames spurted out from under Judra's feet. He stabilized his figure and landed on the ground. Looking back, Eric had used fighting spirit to extinguish the flames on his body, and the weapon in his hand once again turned into a giant door panel sword. !
This time he no longer charged, but suddenly waved the giant sword, and then the steel fighting spirit turned into a sharp blade and suddenly flew out, heading straight for Judra!
Judra pushed his right foot forward and flew out to the left. The steel slash struck the ground, immediately crushing the earth and creating a layer of sand!
But before Judra could stand still, Eric waved the giant sword again, and the invisible steel blade flew away again!
The corner of Judra's mouth raised a sneer, and the green flames on his body suddenly went out, letting the steel blade approach.
The sharp blade cut into the barrier, and it suddenly became extremely weak. Judra just waved the sword gently and annihilated it invisible.
This was originally intended to anger Eric and make him take the initiative to charge, but Eric was not excited at all, and the next light blade struck!
One, two, three, four...
The arena was full of deep pits, with sand and earth splashing everywhere.
Judra kept moving around and couldn't avoid it, so he took action to defeat it.
“Eric is in danger.” Viscount John said.
Sure enough, just after Eric struck the 11th blow, Judra's body ignited flames again and struck Eric like a meteor.
As both third-level knights, Judra is very aware of Eric's total amount of fighting energy at this time. On the premise of supporting the form of the steel colossus, Judra must continue to consume fighting energy to slash through the air.
Now Eric's fighting spirit has bottomed out!
It’s time to make great achievements!
"Wonderful decision." Raven commented: "The timing and motivation are extremely precise."
"It's a pity... you underestimated me, and you underestimated Eric! ”
Before he finished speaking, Judra had already rushed to Eric. The long sword in his hand spurted out flames. He raised it above his head with a high sword posture, pulled up a fire fan in mid-air, and slashed suddenly. And down!
The flames illuminated Eric's whole body, his armor was burned red, and the sword in his hand began to show signs of softening just as he raised it before he could meet it.
His image has been distorted to the point of being unclear!
However, at this moment, there was a crisp sound, and then the invisible light shield that had always shrouded Judra suddenly collapsed!
The steel protective barrier, after withstanding 4 slashes, finally couldn't withstand Eric's outpouring of fighting spirit and shattered!
And the long sword in Eric's hand expanded and grew rapidly in the brilliance of fighting spirit, and then he steadily withstood the blow!
The flames collided with the steel, turning into molten iron and splashing out, burning deep pits on the ground.
One sentence stuck in Judra's heart: "How can you still have fighting spirit!"
How can you still have fighting spirit that is enough to break through the barrier and strengthen yourself! ?
"Ha--" Eric roared, and the giant sword in his hand suddenly pressed down. Judra felt her wrist sore and couldn't help but take two steps back.
But Eric took a step forward, and the giant sword wrapped in silver-gray fighting spirit, just like wrapping the Milky Way and slashed!
Judra can only block!
Bang——
Under the huge force, the sword in Judra's hand shook violently. Even though Judra held it with all his strength, he still couldn't bear the force and began to bend from the middle. Folding, the flames couldn't find a way out, burning the hit area red, the runes shattered, and then they were stamped on Judra's chest!
A heart-wrenching sound of metal bending came, and Judra's fighting spirit collapsed. His whole body was thrown out like a bag, and he fell to the ground like water. This was unbearable. Can stop.
Eric followed step by step.
Judra slowly stood up, suddenly raised his mask, wiped a handful of blood from his cheek, raised his arms high, and said calmly:
"I surrender!"
The spectators next to him Some spectators were already roaring in dissatisfaction, obviously furious because they had bet on Judra to win.
This scene was beyond Eric's expectation, and he also raised his visor: "You still have plenty of fighting spirit, why did you give in so early?"
"You are getting older. You have to take good care of yourself and strive to have a son as soon as possible. You can't waste it here." Judra sighed: "Now, I finally know where the gap between myself and Raven is."
"He never fights unprepared battles. I seem to be imitating him in everything, but in the end, I still don't understand the secret of magic."
"This armor of yours is not simple."
< br>Eric smiled and did not answer.
Judra's guess is correct. The reason why Eric still has fighting spirit is because of the help of this armor.
It has two enchantments of "steel" and "giant strength" attached to it.
It only requires a little bit of fighting spirit to start, and it can allow Eric to maintain the form of the steel colossus without consuming his own fighting spirit.
This is why even if it is covered by a steel protective barrier, it still cannot suppress this armor.
This is also why, with the blessing of the air-swallowing combat method, Judra clearly has a third-level four-star combat power, but she is still suppressed in strength by Eric - not just because Raven strengthened Eric .
"Victor, Eric Knight!"
After all, many people bet on Eric to win, and the cheers temporarily covered up the curses.
Eric turned around and walked back, but Judra suddenly said: "Eric!"
"What's the matter?" Eric turned his head.
“Since you have defeated me, you will keep winning.” Judra grinned: “This is our Xuefeng County’s own competition, don’t let those outsiders steal the limelight!”
< br>When Raven heard Eric relaying this sentence, he nodded in agreement: "This guy still has some righteousness in his heart."
Eric's victory finally made public opinion no longer just Focusing on Akori and Gul'dan, Eric became the new focus.
This is certainly related to the fact that Gul'dan and Akori's opponents in this round were only level two, but Eric's calm performance still won unanimous praise.
Some people began to discuss the possibility of the Griffith family taking the crown.
For this momentum, the Fox family, including Montreal and Guldan, are happy to see it. The stronger Raven is, the better it is for them.
But Marquis Anthony was not so happy.
Especially when he returned to his residence and saw the letter that suddenly appeared on the desktop.
His hand stretched out to the letter was even a little trembling.
