Chapter 200 Duel by Raising the Flag
Tess looked coldly at the man called "Big Brother". She saw that he was in his early thirties, wearing a neat black suit and a tall cylindrical hat. His hair and beard were neat. He didn't look like a businessman.
The gangster looked like a noble preparing to attend a banquet. Unfortunately, his sinister and dirty eyes revealed his bad nature.
"Who are you?" Jindi asked.
"I am Randolph Moloch!" the man said: "As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog. This guy is raised by our Moloch family!"
Jin Di said to the bald head: "Did you hear that? He called you a dog!"
Bald head: "..."
Jindi said to Landolfi again: "It's unlucky for you to raise him. He has been beaten into a loser by my sister. If you raise him, your family will become a loser."
Landolfi pondered for a moment and said to the bald head: "That makes sense. Don't come to my house again!"
Bald head: "???"
Brother, you are too easily fooled!
Besides, is a bereaved dog a dog that turns a home into a bereavement? Can it be explained this way?
Nalandolfi was thinking about Jindi's words, and the bald head was depressed and didn't say anything. The group of people fell into a deadlock for a while. Or Tess shouted: "Are you here to cause trouble?"
"Haha, exactly!" Landolfi then remembered what he was here for, pointed at Tess and said: "Duel with me. If I win, you will be my woman!"
The bald man was shocked when he heard this and asked: "Brother, didn't you just say that if you win, you will let the other party kneel down and kowtow? Why have the conditions changed?"
Before Landolfi could reply, Tess shouted: "It's none of your business."
The bald man immediately shrank aside and did not dare to make a sound.
"Interesting!" Miss Stonefield came out from behind the counter and said with a smile: "Our mercenary office has always been responsible for arbitration. This time, I will be the notarizer. Let the two of you plant a flag and duel!"
"Okay!" Tess and Landolfi agreed in unison and strode out of the mercenary office door.
Flag dueling is a folk way of resolving disputes. Two people use flags as a command to defeat the other party based on their ability, until one party loses fighting ability or surrenders and begs for mercy. Injuries caused during the duel are exempt from punishment, but the duelist is not allowed to kill
If you kill the opponent, you will face legal sanctions. It is somewhat close to the custom of two-on-two duels in the Alterac region.
Miss Stonefield raised the tribal flag symbolizing the duel. It seemed that this was not the first time she was acting as a referee. She even had the flag ready.
"Wait a minute!" Hearing this shout, Jin Di suddenly beamed. It turned out that Med'an heard a dispute not far away and rushed over to take a look.
"Sister Tess, leave this moment to me!" Mai De'an came over and stood in front of Tess and said seriously: "Tailan is not here, so I will protect my teammates!"
Stonefield asked: "Substitution? Do you both agree?"
Landolfi smiled contemptuously: "Oh, just this little brat? I don't care."
Tess nodded: "I have no objection."
Stonefield raised his flag high and lowered his hand.
The moment the flag fell to the ground, Landolfi moved. He pulled out the sword from his waist, and at the same time quickly launched the warrior's signature skill - charge, and rushed towards Med'an!
Although he said he despised his opponent, he actually did not underestimate his opponent. His vigorous pace even surprised the well-informed Miss Stonefield.
"This guy is very strong, at least with C-level strength!" Tess made a judgment in her mind.
But Med'an is no longer what he used to be. After his trip to Booty Bay, he has accumulated quite a lot of combat experience. In an instant, he completed the first spell - Ice Armor, and a layer of ice armor appeared around his body.
Blue armor with a hint of cold air.
Landolfi had already leaned against him, and the Western-style foil sword in his hand stretched out like a poisonous snake and pierced his heart. Med'an raised his hand and cast another spell - Flame Blast!
This spell was not very powerful, but it was very fast because it did not require chanting. It directly hit the guard of the foil sword. Landolfi almost lost control and threw the sword away. Naturally, the stab could not go down.
"Mage?" Landolfi was shocked and his face became a little serious.
Since Med'an was wearing casual clothes, others could not tell what his profession was. Landolfi only guessed that he was an assassin from his light clothes. Warriors and thieves had an advantage in single combat. They were both melee combat professions.
Warriors are better at frontal slashing, while assassins are good at sneak attacks, and frontal combat is not their specialty.
But now that Med'an has used the spell, the meaning is completely different. Facing a mage, Landolfi showed a strong sense of fear.
But when he hesitated, Med'an did not stop. The next spell he chanted - Ice Arrow burst out. Landolfi had just thrust out the next sword, but he didn't expect his opponent to cast the spell so fast, and he couldn't dodge immediately.
Hit. This time he was affected by the freezing deceleration effect, and the stabbing speed slowed down a lot.
His slow move with the sword made him even more difficult to move. Med'an saw it clearly and dodged. The tip of the sword only slightly brushed his shoulder. The ice armor technique has the effect of enhancing defense, although it is not as good as the knight's holy shield technique.
Absolutely immune to injury, but enough to be immune to such minor injuries.
After two moves, Landolfi suffered a big loss. However, he had a calm mind and immediately gathered his luck. He raised the foil sword diagonally above his head. It was obvious that the next move was a heavy blow. This is a common skill for warriors - heroic strike.
.
Normally, it is very dangerous for a fragile mage to be approached by a warrior. Most mages use control spells such as Frost Nova to firmly control their opponents. But Med'an did not do this. He looked calm,
Singing the spell steadily. When Landolfi charged up and pierced forward, he also released his ultimate move - Shock Wave.
The moment the foil sword struck the head, shock waves erupted from around Med'an's body, and the powerful momentum directly pushed Randolph out, slamming into the wall behind him.
Med'an pursued mercilessly and chanted an arcane missile loudly. Countless purple balls shot out from the tips of his fingers, swishing like machine guns at Randolph, making him unable to stand up at all.
Come.
"This, this little brat is so strong! Is the mage so difficult to deal with?" Landolfi was shocked and angry, but he just said that the mage has a natural professional restraint on warriors.
In fact, most mages do not have the mental strength as strong as Med'an to support such high-density and accurate spellcasting. This is a talent that cannot be learned through hard practice alone.
Landolfi was suppressed and was miserable. He managed to avoid the missiles and charged forward, but he saw Med'an gently raising his hand and releasing an ice wall more than three meters wide, completely blocking his attack.
Even Jin Di couldn't help but praise: "The area and thickness of this ice wall have increased again. It seems that Med'an's strength has improved again."
Landolfi had no choice but to go around the wall, but what greeted him as soon as he came over was a palm shining with golden light.
Med'an's self-created spell, Palm of Light, struck him hard on the chest, causing him to take four or five steps back. He could hardly stand and almost fell. His energy and blood were fluctuating, and he even vomited a mouthful of blood.
Chapter completed!
