Paul Porter's sincere blessing made Gao Fei deeply moved.
He never expected that Paul Porter, a playboy from a noble family, would value his friendship so much.
"I will win, Paul." Gao Fei shook his hand vigorously, "Political opinions aside, we will always be friends. If you need me in the future, say hello and I will be there whenever you call me."
"Oh! Really?" Paul Porter's eyes shone, "Brother Justice, can you please fight my love rival for me?"
"Get out! Can't you, kid, do something serious?!"
Gao Fei laughed and cursed and pushed the young Marquis away, turned around and walked to the referee's seat, shook hands with the three referees one by one, and signed the disclaimer.
He also shook hands and hugged today's duel opponent, Major Frame, and politely wished each other "good luck", pretending to be a gentleman in front of the public.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to shake hands, Gao Fei opened the astrolabe and investigated the details of Henry Frame.
The breastplate worn by this person, the long sword and the large shield equipped are all 1 enchanted equipment.
In comparison, Gao Fei didn't even have a single magic weapon or magic armor on him, which made him look a bit shabby.
Major Frame's attributes are: Strength 20, Agility 14, Constitution 18, Intelligence 12, Perception 15, and Charisma 20.
Among them, the strength, physique and charm that are more important to the profession of "Arcane Knight" are all outstanding.
There were no specialties listed in the information provided by the private detective, and Gao Fei also saw them through the astrolabe.
There are four items in total, namely "Strong", "Iron Will", "Powerful Attack" and "Cruel Strike".
Taking into account the bonus of the "Strong" feat, Henry Frame has 103 HP points, which is more HP than Goofy expected.
Apart from his poor character, Major Frame is indeed a young officer with excellent qualities in all aspects. He is also the strongest opponent Gao Fei has faced in the duel so far.
Enchanting the breastplate and shield provides Frame with a total defense of 10, an agility modifier of 2, and a comprehensive defense level of 22.
The most sophisticated weapons in Goofy's hands are nothing more than a pistol, a rapier and a long whip, among which the pistol is the most lethal.
Crafted Pistol attack roll 1, plus a Dexterity modifier of 4 and a Proficiency modifier of 3, for a total of 8.
The first tactic designed by Goofy was to dual-wield pistols and shoot at Major Frame from a long distance.
However, based on the offensive and defensive data of both the enemy and ourselves, a simple calculation shows that the probability of shooting through the opponent's defense is only 35%.
The hit rate is a bit low, but it's not impossible.
However, two things happened next, forcing Gao Fei to give up the two-gun strategy.
The first is a rule announced by the referee.
Both parties in the duel are not allowed to remain in the air for more than 30 seconds.
Furthermore, the vertical height of the float shall not exceed 100 feet.
If you violate this rule, you will be given a warning for the first time. If you violate it again, you will be punished immediately!
The group of conservatives, nobles and senior officials of the ruling party who were cheering for Major Frame on the sidelines all smiled like the Mona Lisa when they heard the referee announcing this rule.
Obviously, there is py transaction in it!
This public judicial duel has deviated from the original intention of fairness in terms of rule design!
"Mmp! Target me!"
Gao Fei was so angry that he cursed secretly.
In the first two duels, the deepest impression Gao Fei left on the audience was his good marksmanship and flexible mobility.
Valley Festival
Nowadays, everyone knows that Musk Justice is an accurate marksman and is good at flying high into the sky and shooting with a gun from a high position.
If his opponent is not good at shooting and lacks the ability to fly, he will become a target in the duel!
Major Frame's agility attribute is only 14 points, his marksmanship is average, and he has not mastered the flying spell. Let him shoot against Goofy, which is tantamount to suicide.
The rule announced by the referee seemed to impose the same restrictions on both sides of the duel. In fact, it had little impact on Frame, but it was equivalent to abolishing Goofy's wings.
The suspended height is limited to no more than 100 feet, which is very subtle.
Frame's strongest long-range attack, the "Scorching Ray," has a range of 120 feet, which is just beyond the rule limit.
Goofy's pistol can ensure a stable ballistic trajectory within 180 feet, but now he is forced to snipe with his opponent within a hundred feet. There is no way to go whoring for free.
Even though he knew that this rule was not good for him, Gao Fei could not protest.
What the referee said was high-sounding.
The flight height is limited so that referees and spectators can clearly see every detail of the battle.
Otherwise, if you fly into the clouds, no one on the ground can see clearly what you are doing. If there is any illegal behavior, who can stop it?
The purpose of limiting the flight time is to prevent the duel from dragging on endlessly.
Otherwise, if you fly in the air and don't fall down, your opponents on the ground won't be able to hit you. If the two sides continue to face off like this endlessly, when will the duel end?
Faced with these seemingly reasonable arguments, Gao Fei could only accept the loss.
If it was only restricted by the rules, the flying double gun tactic could still be used. The next two protective spells blessed by Frame completely dispelled Gao Fei's thoughts.
The information previously provided by the private detective was missing two spells that Frame was good at.
Now Gao Fei finally knows what it is.
One is level 0 "Blade Protection", which reduces physical damage by half within 6 seconds.
Another one turned out to be...a 2-ring "Protective Arrow"!
…
Level 2 "Protective Arrows": Lasts for 1 hour/level, the subject gains damage reduction armor 10/magic against long-range weapons; it can absorb up to 100 points of remote damage.
…
When this spell was invented, there were no firearms in the world.
It's called "Arrow Protection", but it can actually be used to protect against bullets.
Neither of Goofy's pistols are magic weapons, and it is almost impossible to penetrate Frame's double bulletproof system composed of "blade protection" and "arrow protection".
With a helpless sigh, Gao Fei put his guns back into his storage gloves, and could only confront Frame head-on.
The level 6 "Imitator" has only 44 health points, which is less than half of the opponent's.
Frame has established a "weapon connection" with the 1 long sword in his hand, giving him an advantage in attacking, and additional damage will be included in the charm correction.
He also mastered "Powerful Attack" and "Cruel Strike", two specialties that enhance melee damage, as well as the more violent "Magic".
Gao Fei and he stood up and attacked each other, and he had to rush to the street after less than half a minute.
How to deal with such a ruthless character who is both offensive and defensive?
Fortunately, in addition to flying sniping, Gao Fei also has a set of backup tactics, which are suitable for dealing with the current predicament.
The referee announced that the duel had entered a countdown, and both sides had one minute to make final preparations.
