Steven raised his knife to deflect the spear, but was driven into the sand like a pile by the huge force coming from above!
He pulled his feet out from the sand, held the straight knife and looked at the spear shaft in the giant's hand. There was a knife mark on it, and it seemed that it had suffered some damage.
The giant chief took a few steps back in shock. As Steven looked towards the spear shaft, he noticed the knife marks left on it, and his face looked a little ugly!
If he continues to attack Steven in the same way, sooner or later the spear in his hand will be cut off by the guy's knife, and the guy's strength is so huge that this attack will be completely ineffective.
The chief no longer adopted the fighting method of sweeping across, slashing, and hitting the sword head-on. Instead, he stabbed Steven with his spear. At the same time, he used an ice shield to block Steven's sword attack. The sword blocked the spear and then attacked the spear.
There was almost no damage to the rod, with only a few white marks left at most.
The two of them fought back and forth on the beach, and gradually the fighting position moved to the junction of the beach and the woods.
This was intentional on Steven's part. The beach was too open, which was not conducive to Steven taking advantage of his relatively short stature and agility. He moved the chief towards the woods without leaving any trace.
There are dozens of coconut trees growing there, only a few meters apart, which will provide a good barrier for him to use obstacles to restrain the tall chief. Moreover, the spear in the chief's hand is not suitable for fighting in narrow terrain. Even if he uses a stone axe,
, the stone ax is not sharp enough, it is difficult to cut through the thick coconut tree trunk with one axe.
The chief's attack had the upper hand, and the opponent evaded his attack to other positions. He would naturally keep up with the attack and maintain suppression, so he was not aware of Steven's plan.
During the fight, the two gradually came to the edge of the woods. The chief raised his spear and quickly stepped forward to stab Steven. Steven ducked behind a tree trunk. The chief then turned to the trunk and stabbed Steven again, but he
He used the tree trunk to return to the other side and avoided the spear.
At this time, the shortcomings of the chief's tall stature and heavy spear were exposed!
He chased Steven through the coconut forest. He had lost the suppression of the intensive offensive just now, but Steven used the environment to gain the upper hand! The balance of offense and defense shifted to Steven's side!
The other members of the giant team followed them to a position more than ten meters outside the woods. They inserted torches near the battlefield to illuminate the chief, and kept roaring rhythmically to cheer for their chief. However, they saw that the chief was lost in the array of tree trunks.
With the initial advantage, these giants seemed a little discouraged and their voices were not as loud as before.
The Giant Chief seemed to be very patient and did not show any impatience. Instead, he waved his ice shield to block Steven's attack. He was more advantageous when defending. He could use the tree trunks to block the attack. The tree trunks would create a negative impact on the attacker.
Obstacle, but beneficial to the defender.
But overall, the woods are good for Steven!
He is shorter than the giant and has higher agility. Now all he has to do is to seize the loopholes in the Chief's defense during the attack to expand his advantage and finally defeat his opponent!
But gradually Steven felt something strange!
The temperature of the surrounding air continued to drop! Soon a layer of mist condensed near the chief's body. This was the water in the air condensed into water mist by the low temperature. The water mist quickly condensed into frost mist, which enveloped the air.
Within the fighting range between the chief and Steven, low-temperature frost and mist spread in the woods and began to work on Steven, restricting his movements!
There was a layer of white frost on Steven's clothes. Although the low temperature did not completely restrict his movements, it also made his movements slower than before. The frost mist sucked into his body also made Steven's breathing uncomfortable. If
Unless a high-intensity battle generates a lot of heat, he would probably be frozen!
Steven had been careful to avoid direct contact with the chief before. He learned about the characteristics of ice elemental power from Kate. The consequence of direct contact with the chief's body would definitely be that it would be instantly frozen, but now this situation was obviously unexpected!
At this time, the giant on the beach could no longer see clearly the fighting situation between the two in the woods!
Although being in frost and fog did not affect the vision of the two men during the battle, it was a bit blurry from the outside, and the brightness of the torch illumination was limited in the dark night.
At this time, Steven, who was fighting the chief in the woods, lost his previous advantage again!
He will be affected when he is around the chief, the speed of swinging the sword slows down, and the frost mist he inhales also stimulates his lungs, all of which affect Steven's attack power.
On the other hand, the chief was not affected at all! He was no different in the frost and mist than on the beach!
Seeing that Steven's movements had slowed down, the chief began to step up his attack, using Steven's position as he circled the tree trunk to predict his position, and then drew his spear and thrust it out at high speed!
At this time Steven's passive burst skill was triggered!
The world in his eyes became still and the sound disappeared!
The tip of the spear stabbed from the side of the tree trunk slowly scratched the bark of the tree, picked up a few bark fibers, and stabbed towards his cheek one by one. Steven dodged the tip of the spear with his side face, and then moved his body back.
After a roll, the passive burst was released, and he ducked behind the tree trunk while thinking quickly about a solution.
Seeing that Steven was restricted by the low temperature caused by the frost and fog, the chief began to increase the intensity of the ice elemental power. However, the use of elemental power in this way was not sustainable, so he had to end the battle as soon as possible, otherwise he would run out of elemental power soon.
!
The depletion of elemental power will cause the esper to temporarily lose combat effectiveness and become very tired, so he cannot take this risk.
The concentration of frost and fog in the woods has increased again! This fog, which is similar to water mist, will not affect vision within 1 or 2 meters, but it will be difficult to see clearly from a little further away. Especially now it is night, and it is difficult to see clearly just by the illumination of the surrounding torches.
Very vague.
Steven became passive as the attack and defense shifted next to the chief. After dodging the attack of the chief's ice shield again, he moved behind a tree. He took the time to glance around and found that the giant team on the periphery could no longer be seen.
, at this time a guess and plan emerged in his mind!
He no longer struggled with the giant chief, but quickly retreated into the woods more than ten meters behind him. Although there was frost and fog spreading here, it was much better than around the chief, and the temperature was much higher. The low-temperature air
No more stinging sensation in the lungs when inhaled!
Seeing his opponent retreat, the chief chased him, trying to shroud Steven in the frost mist around him again!
But Steven didn't give him this chance. He kept wandering in the woods, and at the same time, taking advantage of the diffuse fog that interfered with his vision, he sprinted from behind the tree trunks to the chief and attacked the chief with a knife. If he missed a hit, he immediately moved away and continued.
He circled with the opponent, always avoiding the chief's body, and used his flexible actions to start a chase game with the chief in the woods!
At this time the chief became anxious!
There was a limit to how he could activate the frost mist, and it couldn't last long. Seeing that he couldn't catch up with his opponent, he had to stop this elemental skill.
At this time, Steven felt the temperature around him begin to rise. He understood that his guess just now was correct. The chief's elemental combat skill could not last long!
