Volume four, chapter sixty-five, the war starts again
"Two swords in one."
Durand's voice sounded loudly between the world, and the awe-inspiring power contained in the shout almost condensed into substance, dispersing the nearby breath of death.
The orange-flame sword in his hand intertwined with the amber blade, bursting out a strong red and blue light, red and blue intertwined, and then a little purple color gradually emerged. With a thud, this little purple tear apart the red and blue light curtain, revealing the whole picture. The two-bit clone disappeared, Durand held a brand new two-handed sword in his hand, which was red and blue, and the tip of the knife was flashing with a deep and charming faint purple light.
Durand held the hilt of the knife with both hands, pointed the blade diagonally in front of him, and the tip of the knife trembled rhythmically, making people wonder where he was going to attack.
The man in black robe became solemn. He hid among the headless giant beast, and used his soul power to explore everything outside.
"Durand..." The man in black robe did not immediately rush up and started fighting. He "looked" at the two swords that were combined into one and sneered, "Last time, you hurt me with this thing, but last time I had not completed the plan completely, so I could only use my two claws to fight you. What you will face this time is my strongest posture! Do you think it would be useful to repeat the same trick?"
Durand smiled faintly and said, "If it's useful, you'll know if it's useful. The last time I penetrated your dirty paws, I was exhausted. This time, I promise it will be different."
At this moment, Durand showed the integration of two swords, but not the most complete integration of two swords. The new sword will not cause huge consumption or even overdrafts, and the price will be to reduce the power by half.
In this way, Durand could not burst out with the ultimate attack power in an instant like last time, but would not drain his power with one blow.
"Do you think this method can beat me?" The man in black robe was still full of disdain.
Durand shrugged and smiled, "Maybe not possible."
The man in black robe was stunned when he heard this.
Durand made two preparations for this battle. One is the combination of two swords with half of their power. It is not difficult to do this, just explain it to the double sword clone. The other hand preparation is a simplified version of the soul weapon used to stab the heart and completely guide the power of the soul.
Seeing that the man in black was not taking action, Durand sighed helplessly: "Hey, are you going to hit or not? Wasn't you very arrogant when you only had two claws last time? This time they can drive their whole body. Instead, they are scared?"
This casual and slight joking attitude made the man in black inexplicably feel a strong anger.
While a person gains great power overnight, his mentality may not be able to keep up. After the man in the black robe drove the corpse of the headless giant beast, he already thought deep in his heart that he was the strongest man on the plane, and he longed to be awe of the enemy. He also believed that such a terrifying power appeared in front of people and was taken for granted.
Durand showed no fear, which made the man in the black robe feel particularly angry: in the face of such great power, why can you not feel fear?!
The man in black robe was extremely angry. Even he himself didn't understand why he was so angry. Perhaps it was because of his mentality after becoming a peerless strong man overnight. Perhaps it was because the breath of death invaded his soul. Who knew, in short, he was very angry, and his anger was held in his heart, which turned into a strong murderous intent towards Durand.
"I will make you pay the price." The man in black roared suddenly, and the headless giant beast gradually lowered its center of gravity and tried to pounce.
"The price?" Durand was stunned. He didn't know how angry the man in the black robe was at this moment, so the other party's words sounded a bit stupid.
"I want you to pay..." The headless beast's center of gravity had been pressed to the lowest point, frozen for a moment, and then suddenly exerted force to rush towards Durand, "...I don't know the price of awe!!"
This pounce was as fast as thunder. Although it was just a simple frontal culling without much technical content, the lightning speed, powerful power, and the terrifying power brought by the huge size made the queen who was watching the battle feel awe!
“So strong!”
This was the first time the queen had seen the war weapons of the man in the black robe and him with her own eyes. As powerful as her, she couldn't help but sweat for Durand. Her eyes quickly floated towards Durand, facing the giant beasts head-on.
If Durand loses, the queen will definitely intervene in the battle immediately. To be honest, she doesn't think Durand can handle the attack of the headless beast.
At this moment, Durand, who was the first to bear the brunt, felt a strong smell of rotten smell coming to his face. The corpse of the giant beast was originally rotten. It was even more disgusting after being transformed by the Lich Technique.
Durand held his breath, and an excited flame rose faintly in his eyes.
Faced with this pounce that had to dodge, Durand did not move. His feet were like roots, and the seven-colored light in his eyes flashed at a very high frequency. It was not until the headless giant beast's claws had already poked out and was about to catch Durand that his eyes lit up and he started to move.
Durand's movement was very simple. He quickly turned his wrist and adjusted the blade to aim at a certain direction. He didn't see any pedaling and running aid, so his body rushed forward on its own. He didn't need any acceleration process at all, and it accelerated to the extreme!
It was like a sword that led him to move forward quickly!
The edge of the blade is a slightly raised area behind the neck of the headless giant beast.
Swish! The purple light on the blade lit up and dimmed again, and the two sides crossed by lightning. The man in the black robe seemed to have grabbed the sky, but the sharp claw wind seemed to be storm, rolling over Durand's body. Durand seemed to care nothing at all. He passed through the claw wind and swept forward. The knife light gently swept across the slightly convex part behind the neck of the giant beast, and rushed out more than a hundred meters away, facing the giant beast's back.
The first confrontation between the two sides was a little abrupt, but the queen and the paladin who were watching the battle held their breath at the same time. Merlin's own realm was not enough, so she could not even capture all the actions of both sides!
"Damn it! It's just a little bit!" The Paladin felt a pity. Durand was almost hit by the giant claw just now, but in the end he avoided the claw at the critical moment.
The queen narrowed her eyes slightly, stared at Durand's back, holding a knife, and looked for a moment. Her eyes turned on the blade and then floated to the slightly raised part behind the giant beast's neck. A look of sensation gradually appeared in her eyes: "So that's it."
Obviously, Durand believed that the back of the neck was the opponent's vital point. In order to hit the target, he stood there and waited for the moment when the opponent's offensive was fully launched, resulting in the weakest defense before attacking.
"This kid is too brave!" The queen couldn't help but exclaim.
If Durand had missed the timing just now, he might have been hit by the giant claws, and the consequences would have been unimaginable. In fact, he was only taken by the claw wind and suffered some injuries. Durand slowly turned around, his robe was much damaged, and there were many fine wounds on his face and hands, which were healing under the action of high-speed regeneration.
He looked at the headless beast that was frozen and smiled: "It seems that my attack position is completely correct. That is your weakness, right?"
The headless giant beast trembled slightly, and the slightly raised part behind the neck began to squirm, and the upper body of the man in the black robe appeared out of it bit by bit.
"You actually found my place." The man in black robe looked at Durand and said in a low voice, "But that's nothing. Your attack can't threaten me."
Durand swayed the sword: "I know you can switch between soul and body, but unfortunately, my sword has both soul and material attacks. No matter what form you transform yourself into, you will inevitably be harmed."
"Hmph, you'd better ask yourself not to be hit by me!" The man in black robe said in a tit-for-tat way. His tone became cruel: "I can see that your knife has been weakened! At most, only half the power of the last knife, right? But I'm different! My attack power, my power, and my speed are much stronger than when you and I fought last time! Even if your recovery is amazing, the premise of "recovery" is "although still alive". I don't think you can still survive after you hit me with one claw!"
With a bang, the giant beast turned its huge body, its thick and strong hind limbs stepped on the ground, and rushed towards it again.
The man in black robe is right. After completely controlling this headless corpse, the strength he can exert is indeed much stronger. Durand was shot in the last battle and could rely on the powerful recovery power of high-speed regeneration. If he is shot again, it may turn directly into meat paste.
Similarly, it would be very dangerous to find the man in black robes' hiding place by Durand.
The queen stared at the battle situation, her palms were slightly sweating.
She knew very well that this was a competition where whoever made mistakes first would lose. Judging from the current rhythm of the battle, if Durand made any mistakes, the queen would probably not even have time to save her.
"Augustus." Merlin's face was slightly pale and whispered to the Paladin beside him, "I think we probably don't have a chance to intervene in the battle, right?"
The Paladin didn't say anything. If he could, he wouldn't answer this question.
The strength of the man in the black robe is understandable to the Paladin, but what happened to Durand? The Paladin clearly remembers that in the Battle of Wudalian Fort, he could still fight Durand. How long has it been since then, how could the gap between the two sides be so wide?!
"But... he can't win!" The Paladin's face became stiff and cold, staring at the battle situation for a long time, and said coldly.
The two swords with half power are not as lethal as the giant beast claw strike. Durand may not be able to kill the man in black with one sword, but two or three swords, but if he hits one claw, he will definitely lose his combat power even if he is lucky enough to die.
The Paladin deliberately said it loudly, both for Durand in the battle and for the queen opposite him.
The queen frowned slightly. She understood the meaning of the Paladin's words, but could not refute it.
The battle situation became more and more intense, and the man in black robe retreated back into the giant beast. Durand flew everywhere, and was frighteningly fast. He suddenly turned several times and appeared behind the neck of the giant beast. He was about to stab down with a knife, but because of the giant claws that were violently slapped over, he had to stop his movements and temporarily retreat.
The man in the black robe gradually became unscrupulous. Sometimes Durand was about to attack his weakness, so the man in the black robe man controlled the giant beast and swung his claws toward the back of his neck! In this way, if Durand insisted on attacking, he might not be able to kill the man in the black robe, but he would be photographed into flesh paste.
Durand, who gradually fell into a disadvantage, seemed very patient. His face was always calm, and he was dealing with the headless beast, and he was completely unaware that he was dancing on the tip of the knife.
This made the queen feel a little unable to sit still. She almost couldn't help but want to take action several times, but when she saw Durand's extremely calm expression, she finally endured it.
"I hope he has other trump cards." The queen thought silently.
