Liang was silent for a moment: "I understand the truth, but if we don't all have guns, why do we still use swords to fight?"
As a modern man, Li Ang knows very well that a gun is fast from seven steps away, and a gun is accurate and fast within seven steps. When there is a gun, at most, prepare weapons such as daggers and sabers for close combat. There is no need to swing it.
Two long swords?
"Because he's handsome."
"ah?"
Wein shrugged: "Just kidding. You are right. When facing ordinary people, firearms do have an overwhelming advantage over melee weapons. Let alone guns, even bows and crossbows are more powerful than melee weapons."
There are so many advantages.”
"But don't forget, what we have to deal with is not ordinary people, but extraordinary people, and the wizard who is the best at long-range attacks among the extraordinary people."
"Although firearms are extremely powerful, Extraordinaries have too many ways to interfere with the bullets fired. Even Extraordinaries who are not good at long range can still dodge or even withstand bullets by relying on speed or physical strength. Therefore, in many cases, Extraordinary people with
Strength, the sword in your hand is easier to use than the gun."
Liang frowned: "In other words, in the world of extraordinary people, guns and crossbows are completely useless?"
"It can't be said that alchemy can also create long-range attack weapons with extraordinary power. Well, the big sniper carried by the commissioner over there is one. But this kind of alchemy weapon generally needs to be equipped with etching weapons that are also enchanted with extraordinary power.
Only bullets can really be effective."
"Alchemy, enchantment, these seem to be..."
"The secret witch's trick? Yes, alchemical weapons are more common in the secret witch alliance. The United Empire is a little behind. Most of the models come from the research and development of the Royal Academy of Natural Sciences."
As everyone boarded the car, Leon held the steering wheel tightly, concentrated, and prepared to set off.
With the engine roaring, five armored vehicles and a two-person sports car drove onto the road.
"Keep your distance and don't get so close. If we are attacked, our sports cars are not as durable as armored vehicles."
Leon sighed: "I'm a little nervous...Will James really take the bait?"
"I think he will." Wein propped up the window, "A man who is full of revenge, burning himself, and unrestrained will always choose to go crazy at the end of his life."
"I hope he doesn't come now. I don't want to get involved in the fight..."
Before he could figure out why James wanted to do something to him, Leon was filled with sorrow and heavy thoughts.
The car drove for about 20 minutes, from the Suppression Bureau to Caspers Prison, and had to pass through a factory area. This was also the location where the Suppression Bureau predicted that an attack would be most likely to occur.
About 100 meters behind the armored vehicle convoy, Leon held the steering wheel, squinted his eyes, and noticed a point of light rising from the distant horizon and falling in their direction.
Wei Yin smacked his lips: "Tsk, tsk, pyrotechnic, let's do it again."
Now that it is clear that James' spellcasting ability seems to come from the psychic self-discipline circuit, then, according to the design principle of the psychic self-discipline circuit, James' spell reserve is probably quite fixed. He can only trigger the set spells by pressing buttons, and there is no way to compare them with the real ones.
Like a wizard, he can chant and cast spells as he pleases.
It is not surprising that Pyroblast, as a range-killing explosion spell, was chosen by James as one of his fixed spells.
Leon slammed on the brakes and turned the steering wheel wildly. The sports car stopped sideways. The next second, the pyrotechnic technique landed on the ground, setting off a violent explosion. The shock wave caused one tire of the sports car to lift off the ground, and it was almost overturned.
"Fuck!" Liang subconsciously uttered a national curse. After the car was stabilized, he took out the cards in his hand and took a look. Sure enough, he had an extra Pyroblast card in his hand.
The pyrotechnics did not hit any armored vehicles. In fact, with its power, it was difficult to directly destroy armored vehicles reinforced with special materials. Therefore, the pyrotechnics only landed a few meters in front of the convoy, blowing up the road.
Bad, forcing the convoy to stop.
"Enemy attack!"
With a shout, the commissioners got off the armored vehicle escorting Bell Thabit one by one, took out their weapons, and alerted the surroundings.
Two or three seconds later, a searchlight hit the roof of the factory not far away, which was also the location where the Pyroblast technique came from. In the center of the light, a figure wearing a black poncho stood quietly.
Leon's heart tightened. Is this James Wensley, the murderer who murdered the Imperial Envoy, attacked Caspars Prison, and may have caused the disappearance of Alfred and the judicial officer in the case?
James raised both hands and held the wrist of his right hand with his left hand. In less than a second, the electric current had completed the chanting of the spell, and another pyrotechnic took shape in front of James and rushed towards him.
"Hold the shield!"
Following Zoe's order, the commissioners raised their tall obsidian shields and formed a shield wall in the shortest possible time.
Such an efficient defensive response amazed Leon, but Wei Yin sighed.
The next moment, Leon knew why Wein was sighing. After the Pyroblast Technique, two or three ice spears exuding extreme cold followed!
The pyrotechnic failed to break up the commissioner's line, but the surface of the obsidian shield also withstood a baptism of high temperature. The next moment, the cold ice spear hit the shield. The sudden alternation of hot and cold made the obsidian somewhat catalytic, and the ice spear's own physics
Kinetic energy took advantage of this, leaving a huge gap in the obsidian shield.
"Suzheng Bureau is still using the same thinking as dealing with low-level wizards to deal with James, but whether it is instantaneous spell casting, or the use of spells such as pyrotechnics and ice spears, they are beyond the scope of low-level wizards." Wein said, "
And James also achieved multi-threaded spellcasting. Look, these three ice spears were formed at the same time. Fortunately, his multi-threaded spellcasting is not as flexible as a real mid-level wizard, otherwise the connection between pyrotechnics and ice spears would be closer."
"Do you have to make sarcastic remarks here?" Liang lowered his body, worried about being affected, "You are also an extraordinary person after all, so you don't want to help them? It seems that Su Zhengju is being suppressed and beaten?"
"Don't worry about them. Although James seems to have the upper hand, he is just catching the situation off guard. The commissioners' counterattack will come soon."
As if to confirm Wein's words, with the sound of a gunshot, James swayed and seemed to have fallen off the roof.
"He was killed right now?" The situation changed so suddenly that Liang couldn't react for a moment, "That's too bad!"
"Don't look down on James." Wein raised his chin, "Look, he came down by himself and is closing the distance with the commissioner's defense."
"Close the distance...is he crazy?"
A wizard fighting in close combat with a bunch of armored commissioners?
"No, think about it, the reason why wizards always keep their distance in battle is that their spellcasting requires chanting, which takes time, and they will be distracted during the chanting. For those equipped with psychic self-discipline circuits
For James, this is not a problem. Instead, those who are in close combat with him must always pay attention to the spells that are triggered from time to time. Therefore, close combat is James' advantage area."
"No matter how advantageous he is, he still has to deal with so many people..."
As James approached, a commissioner set up a mithril spear and thrust it at him, while James raised his hand to block and hold the spearhead.
Logically speaking, using human hands to block the thrust of a spear is definitely a move that only a lunatic would come up with. The human body cannot stop the spear from poking a hole.
But James did it, he grabbed the spearhead that was close at hand, and the next moment, a bright electric light flashed from him, extending along the spear to the commissioner.
The commissioner gritted his teeth, suddenly broke away from James' grasp, and withdrew the spear, but the electric shock also made him tremble.
"Be careful!" Zoe shouted, "His hands, his side - are made of metal!"
Leon twitched his lips: "What are you doing, Iron Man?"
"So that's it. It seems that Ian not only implanted a psychic self-discipline circuit into James, but also made a series of modifications to him." Wei Yin realized something, "This can indeed improve James's resistance to the psychic self-discipline circuit."
I don’t know how much of his body is still his original body.”
The violent movement caused James' hood to fall down. He raised his head. Under the light, everyone could see clearly that half of James' face had no flesh and blood, revealing an iron-gray metal structure. One of his eyes was also
A metal prosthetic eye that glows red.
"Gentlemen, ladies..." James' voice was hoarse, "You... also want to hinder my revenge?"
