Chapter 421: They are both Teigu, why is there such a big gap...
Because his body was in the air, Wood didn't have a good way to deal with Esdeath's attack.
Although he has the "Moon Step" to move in the air, the angle at which these ice spears appeared has surrounded Wood without any blind spots, and there is no possibility for him to avoid them.
So there is no other way to avoid it except hard blocking.
"I know that your Teigu seems to be somewhat restrained by my Teigu. It can protect you from cold and frostbite to a great extent, right?
But if it’s a penetrating damage, you probably won’t be able to be significantly immune or resistant.”
The reason why he ran away from Wood when he fought against him for the first time was largely because Esdeath underestimated Wood's Teigu and also underestimated Wood's own strength.
But she, Esdeath, will not make the same mistake a second time, nor will she let her prey escape from her hands a second time!
"Ding------!"
"clang------!"
Facing the ice spears that burst out from different angles, Wood could only use the long knife in his hand to cut off two of the incoming ice spears, and then used his armor to block and smash the remaining ice spears.
However, just when Wood thought he had solved the dilemma, he suddenly felt the danger coming from behind.
When Wood took another closer look, he was shocked to find that Esdeath, who was standing where he was, was gone.
"Ding------!"
Another extremely clear sound of weapons clashing echoed in the air, but this time the two people who collided had their positions switched.
Because he had just resisted a wave of ice gun attacks, Wood's body was still in a semi-rigid state, so facing Esdeath's attack, he could only make a hasty defense just now.
Because there was no complete defense against Esdeath's slash, his sharp saber actually penetrated Wood's Teigu armor easily, leaving a dull knife mark on his face.
At the same time, the huge impact caused Wood's body to fall to the ground at high speed.
Originally, this was nothing. With the Teigu armor as a buffer, even if he received the same level of impact, Wood would suffer less damage than Esdeath.
But Esdeath is an ordinary person? The other party is a female general who has experienced hundreds of battles, and has reached the point of proficiency in the use of her own imperial gear.
When fighting, Esdeath knows how to use his Teigu to its greatest advantage.
Not only does she have extremely strong strength, but she also has first-class combat skills and combat experience. This is the huge difference between her and ordinary Teigu users.
Originally, Wood's body fell to the ground. At most, his back hit the ground and he received some damage from the impact.
At the moment when Wood was knocked away, Esdeath had already calculated the landing position of Wood, and stretched out his hand to create a giant ice cone directly on the ground.
The cone-shaped ice pick shot up from the ground in an instant, its tip flashing with cold light, and it could undoubtedly easily penetrate the body of any prey.
Needless to say, Esdeath's purpose in creating this ice pick was to inflict secondary trauma on Wood.
With the Teigu armor and the strange ability to harden skin, Esdeath knew that it was unrealistic to kill Wood directly, but it was certain that he could inflict heavy damage to him.
Because of his "visual color", Wood, who flew upside down, could feel the danger from behind even if he didn't look back.
In order to avoid being directly skewered into candied haws, Wood actually took the inertia force acting on his body, forcibly twisted his body in the air, and used the "moon step" in the six postures.
If it had been anyone else, even if he had withstood the force of inertia and twisted his body just now, due to the influence of gravity, his weightless body would still have been penetrated by the ice pick.
But Esdeath probably never thought that Wood also had the skill to move in the air.
"Is this also his Teigu ability? Isn't this too outrageous? Everyone is obviously an armor-type Teigu, but my noble chariot has no other outstanding abilities other than greatly improving its physical ability.
Why are there so many additional abilities of his Teigu?"
From the very beginning, Will and others had been watching the battle between Wood and Esdeath. Compared to Esdeath who used the "Ice Teigu", the power Wood used was all kinds of strange.
Putting aside the unrivaled power of the sword, he actually has the ability to harden his skin to strengthen defense and attack, as well as resist cold properties, and can use small-scale ice power.
Now that they even have the ability to "walk in the air", how can other Teigu users survive?
Obviously, walking or flying in the air is simply not something that humans can do, so the "moon step" Wood is currently using is naturally considered by Will and others to be one of the Teigu's abilities.
And those who expressed sympathy for Will's complaints were Tazmi and Lan.
Tazmi understands Will's feelings, because he is also the armor-type Tei Gear user, and his Tei Gear is haunted by evil spirits. Like Will, in addition to increasing his physical abilities, he only has an invisibility ability.
…
If the abilities used by Wood really come from the Teigu, then whether it is the Noble Chariot or the Haunted Ghost, it is obviously a complete knock-off compared to the Winter Knight.
In fact, Tazmi really wanted to tell the hunter member in front of him, who was from the countryside like him and was good at complaining, that if he knew what kind of person Wood was, he would probably be even more autistic.
Because Wood himself is just like his Teigu, he is a complete all-round talent, no matter what, the other party seems to be able to understand a little bit.
From the complicated aristocratic etiquette, some aristocratic hobbies, to assassination techniques, some professional qualities of a killer, and even working as an undercover agent, Wood seems to be able to do anything.
The other one who felt uncomfortable was Ran, the handsome blond boy's Teigu was the Boots Teigu of Banli Flying Mostima.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The effect is that the shoes grow wings, giving people the ability to fly, and they are extremely fast!
Although this kind of ability is not considered strong among Teigu, it can be considered average. Lan also likes this ability of hers.
But now that he saw Wood using "Shaving" and "Moon Step" on the field to move at high speed in the air, Lang suddenly felt that the Teigu on his feet did not smell good.
His Teigu only has the ability to fly, but for other Teigu, the ability to fly is only one of them...
If Will and Tazmi's Teigu are just inferior products compared to Wood's, then their Teigu can only be regarded as accessories at best, well... they are the kind that come with buying high-end products.
Small gifts and the like.
------Dividing line
The other side carried Ma Yin, who was constantly struggling. After leaving the imperial capital, he walked around the outside several times before finally returning to the stronghold of the night attack.
When Lubbock and Chitong, who were left behind, saw their lonely expressions and the missing Wood and Tazmi, they knew something must have happened.
"What happened! Where did Wood and Tazmi go?"
If things go well, Leonai and Ma Yin will not have such expressions, so at this moment, Lubbock and Chidou both have anxious faces.
And soon, Leonai also told the general story of the matter, and this also caused Lubbock to grab Leonai's collar with an angry look and yelled: "So I said it a long time ago,
I asked you to listen to the knowledge of boSS, but you just refused to listen and insisted on taking risks in the imperial capital!
If anything goes wrong with Wood, he will settle the score with you, Leonai!"
Lubbock didn't have many friends. Except for Nadjeshetan, who had always been in his heart, Wood was one of the few real friends he had.
After all, the two grew up together, and even from joining the Imperial Army to rebelling, Wood followed him crazy throughout the process.
Although the two usually seem like bad friends, it is undeniable that Lubbock really regards Wood as his true best friend!
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."
Leonai was also quite blaming herself at the moment. If it was what Wood said before, and because she had the responsibility to protect Ma Yin from leaving, she would definitely not choose to leave, but would accompany Wood to fight to the end.
"Well, Lubbock, Leonai is not the only one who decided to do this, Wood also agreed.
And they also discussed with us about allowing Tazmi to be an undercover agent. Didn’t you have any objections at the time?"
Seeing Lubbock angrily scolding Leonai and even taking out the Teigu to make a move, Chidou quickly stood between the two of them and asked them to calm down.
"Since Wood asked you two to leave first, and he has a way to escape on his own, there should be no problem.
After all, didn’t he fight that Esdeath before and successfully escape with his body intact?”
Lubbock knew that what Chitong was talking about was referring to the fact that they were chased by Esdeath after they rebelled against the empire. At that time, Wood also took the initiative to stay behind to deal with Esdeath, letting Lubbock and Najexitan go first.
leave.
"You don't understand anything at all. When Wood escaped from Esdeath, he was almost powerless, and he also said it was because Esdeath was careless and lucky.
And this time it is not in the wilderness, but in the imperial capital of the empire! If a battle breaks out there, do you think the so-called hunter and the imperial army will remain indifferent?
I know that guy Wood best. Although he usually seems very dishonest, under certain circumstances, he is the guy most worthy of trusting me.
The reason why I say that is just because I don’t want you to accompany him to death!”
Hearing Lubbock's words, Ma Yin and Leonai also woke up instantly. Ma Yin almost collapsed on the spot instantly, while Leonai clenched her fists and walked out of the house without saying a word. Obviously
He planned to return to the imperial capital to rescue Wood.
Before Chidou and Lubbock could stop Leone, three figures, two women and one man, suddenly appeared in front of the door, and the silver-haired woman among them directly stretched out her hand to stop Leone who was about to leave.
"I just heard a general outline of what happened outside the door. What are you going to do in the imperial capital now? Are you going back to die?
Wood took such a big risk to let you two leave, are you going to live up to his efforts and go back to die in vain?"
The person who blocked Leonai from leaving was naturally Najehitan, who had just returned from the Revolutionary Army headquarters. As for the man and woman following her, they were the reinforcements recruited from the Revolutionary Army this time.
The woman among them was a beautiful girl who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, with long crimson hair, headphones on her head, and a British-style uniform.
The other party's name is Chelsea. As for Teigu, it is Transformation Gaia Foundation, which can perfectly imitate a person's appearance and even body shape.
Of course, temperament and personality cannot be exactly the same, so the user of this Teigu also needs a necessary condition, which is excellent acting skills.
As for the man, he is a very burly man. He is wearing a white dress with wide sleeves, has short blue hair, a pair of horns on his head, and a red magatama the size of a plate on his chest. Anyway
They don't even look like normal humans.
In fact, this is indeed the case. This man with a serious face, named "Suzuo no Man", is a Teigu, but it is an extremely rare biological Teigu. He has the ability to think and fight independently.
It turns out that "The Man of Zuzuo" has been sleeping for hundreds of years. This time Najehitan returned to the revolutionary army, but he woke up because of meeting her, so he recognized him as his master.
"When I was in the Revolutionary Army, I also heard how great night raids were, and how many important imperial officials were successfully assassinated in the imperial capital.
But looking at it now, it doesn’t seem to be anything special. If the leader is absent, the members will act arbitrarily and arbitrarily. Does such an organization really have discipline?"
Although Chelsea looked young and beautiful, her mouth was surprisingly sharp and harsh. At this moment, looking at Leonai who was impulsively preparing to go to the imperial capital, she spoke without mercy.
"What did you guy say..."
After hearing what Chelsea said, Leonai, whose anger level was already at its peak, now looked even more angry and pulled up the other party's collar.
Looking at Leonai who looked angry and glared at her, Chelsea still kept a calm face and said: "Did I say something wrong? Because of my unauthorized actions, my partners were in trouble, and now they are in trouble again."
I just want to use my fists to solve problems and atone for my sins.
Anger and impulsiveness are the stupidest human emotions, because they can make you lose your mind and your ability to think, just like you are now."
Looking at Chelsea who was easily lifted up by him but still had an unforgiving mouth, Leonai couldn't bear it and punched out, but was easily blocked by Susanoo on the side.
"That's enough! Do you still take me as the leader of the team seriously?
Leonai, if you act impulsively like this again, get out of the night raid, because your behavior will only kill more comrades.
And Chelsea, I know what you have been through before, but now we need to solve the problem, not stir up internal conflicts!"
Seeing that the situation was getting a little out of control, Najiexitan got angry on the spot and directly stabilized the situation with her own aura.
