"Annoying!" The black shadow said something, and with a flick of the opponent's hand, the dagger in his hand was suddenly replaced by a scimitar.
Lifting the scimitar, the black shadow came towards Atoris again. Is it okay to give up the sneak attack and correct it? Artoris raised her eyebrows, then waved her sword and faced him.
I have no experience fighting scimitars, but I don’t know what the variables are. The opponent swung the sword very quickly, which must be the advantage of the scimitar. Under the fierce offensive of the black shadow, Artolis retreated step by step, resisting the opponent's attacks while also looking for opportunities.
Finally, in the gap after the opponent's horizontal slash, Artolis found an opportunity! The violent Sunda wind bursts from the blade of the sword. The disadvantage of high-speed attacks is that the steps are unstable. The sliding and flexible steps do not have an absolute advantage! The sudden impact of Xunfeng shook the black shadow away from him, and he staggered at his feet.
Also seeing this opportunity, Artoris brought the sword blade to her chest.
"Tenth Form: Close Hook Link!"
The Shangqing Sword with flowing silver energy was violently pushed out, that's it! Twelve consecutive stabs!
The tenth form of Kellyd's swordsmanship, "Close Hook Link," is a direct sequel to the ninth form, "Flicking the Knife·Blade Reverse." There has never been such a special attack in the human world. If you want to expose the opponent to such a big vulnerability, there is no other way than "bounce the sword and counterattack with the blade".
But it’s different here! If she only remembers the serial skills of swordsmanship without adapting to it, how can Artolis say that she is proficient in the swordsmanship of Kelide?
Impossible, no one at this stage can resist all the series of stabs under such circumstances! It was also after Artolis left several wounds on the other party's body that the other party suddenly made a move that surprised Artolis.
Seeing that he could not dodge all the stabbing blows, the black shadow simply stopped resisting and allowed Artoris's sword blade to pierce his waist.
The scimitar in his hand suddenly flashed with bright light, and as the black shadow shouted, the dancing scimitar went straight towards Atoris's throat.
When the cold light hit, Artoris's pupils shrank when facing the blade that was approaching her, and then fierce winds raged out from around her. Facing the impact of the Xun wind, the black shadow was directly blown away and hit the stone wall on the side. At the same time, the entire stone wall cracked and was about to collapse.
"Ah~" The falling blade turned into fluorescent light and dissipated the moment it hit the ground. Artoris painfully covered the wound torn by the sharp blade. It avoided the vital point, but it was slashed horizontally on the shoulder. On the broken armor, there was a terrible wound with blood gushing out!
The black shadow endured the pain and climbed up, the scimitar in his hand flashed with brilliance again, and the black shadow stepped closer while Artoris gasped violently. Looking at Artoris who was half-kneeling on the ground, enduring the pain of tearing, the corners of the black shadow's mouth twitched.
"Annoying guy, pay the price for your impulsiveness!" Seeing that the black shadow's blade was about to hit his neck, a silver spear suddenly appeared and stood in front of him.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the spear, the black shadow was startled and wanted to put away the knife. However, the spear was faster than her knife, and the scimitar flew away with just a mention.
"Avalon's laws stipulate that you cannot kill someone intentionally!" A strange young man's voice reached Artolis's ears. Enduring the severe pain, Artolis tried to turn around, only to see a brown-haired boy holding a spear. Stand behind yourself.
"Are you aware of the law and breaking the law, or...are you not from the phantom world?!" The young man's eyes became sharp, and then he swung his spear into the air. Under the astonished gazes of Artoris and Black Shadow, Black Shadow's face-covering scarf was torn to pieces at that moment. Then the true appearance of the black shadow was revealed in front of the two of them.
With her dazzling silver hair, dark skin, and her unusually long ears, Artolis was shocked by the other person's face. This is - an elf?
"It's a dark elf, a dark elf who grew up in the demon world!"
"Damn it!" Seeing that the momentum was wrong, the dark elf immediately escaped into the shadows without knowing what kind of secret technique he used, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Don't let her run away!" Atoris shouted anxiously. As a result, the wound tore open again, but the pain directly caused her to pass out.
Picking up Artoris who was lying in a pool of blood, the young man shook his head, knowing that he was no match for the opponent but still working so hard.
"Fortunately, we arrived in time, right Selese!" In the quiet alley, the young man whispered.
"I have to say, you are still so gentle. Sooner or later, this gentleness will make you suffer greatly!" A female voice like a silver bell echoed in the empty alley. Looking at the girl in his arms, the young man sighed.
"At least not now."
…
When Artolis woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the morning. Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling, Artolis was startled, and then she wanted to get up. As a result, this movement pulled the wound on the shoulder.
"Hiss~ It hurts, it hurts~" Atoris touched her shoulder, a bandage? Just when Artolis was confused, a black-haired girl walked in holding this book.
"The wound has not healed yet. If you wake up, please don't move!"
"Uh...oh..." Looking at the girl in front of her, Artoris was stunned for a moment, and then she came back to her senses after hearing what the other person said. He responded and lay back down again.
The black-haired girl walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. Her long, silky hair fell over her shoulders. She placed the book in her hand flat on her slender legs. She turned to Artolis and said, "Your armor has been repaired. No need." Worry."
No wonder, at this time, Atoris's upper body was covered with bandages, her battle armor had long since faded away, and her tattered casual clothes were still on her body. Looking at the ripped clothes on her chest, Artolis swallowed. Turning her gaze back to the girl, Artoris noticed the current situation.
"Thank you for your kindness, can you tell me your name? And where is this place?"
"First time we meet, my name is Yami Qianyin, this is my residence..."
Artoris stared at the girl in front of her. The other party seemed to have anticipated what Artoris wanted to ask. Before Artoris could speak, the other party told her everything she wanted to know.
She heard this name when she saw Chine at night, and Artolis associated her with Kaguya, as it seemed like the name of a Fuso person. Of course, Artolis's guess was correct. The opponent was indeed from Fuso Country in the far east, and was now a student at St. Northumberland College.
The other party also told Artolis about the boy who showed up to save her last night. The boy's name was Barong, and he belonged to the same team as Qianyin. It was indeed him who brought back Artoris who was seriously injured last night. When I see Qianyin and Barong at night, I always feel like where have I heard these two names before? Artoris thought for a moment and then said:
"Thank him for me. If he hadn't appeared in time last night, I might have died there." Recalling the shining silver scimitar, Artolis shuddered.
