Chapter 466 So Vladimir gave up thinking (two in one)
If you can't dodge or defend... there's a high probability that you only have one chance to attack.
It's like a cowboy duel.
Either the two of them fall down at the same time... The one who strikes faster can easily knock down the slower one. The one who has already suffered the damage is basically impossible to make any more effective attacks.
"Then let me count down!"
The tragedy writer, who was almost dancing with excitement, raised his voice: "The ten-second countdown, at the end of the countdown——"
He said, extending his hand forward.
A stream of light flashed in his hand - a simple short gun appeared in his hand.
This was the weapon that assassinated the ruler of the United Kingdom when the short gun was just born. It was dedicated to the tragedian as a sacrifice.
"After hearing gunshots, free attack is allowed!"
declares the tragedian.
Just like a person who is excited to be the referee when watching a race between two people.
He just wants to have fun.
But he himself didn't bother to be part of the fun - but if it was just to help or to be a witness, he would be very happy.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

It was not recognized by either of them, but the tragedy writer did not have that kind of reserve.
He was quite thick-skinned - seeing that both of them ignored him, he started the countdown energetically.
Annan, on the other hand, turned sideways.
He switched to the Three Siren held in his left hand and hid it behind his back; and he raised his right hand and pointed the magic spear given by the Bone Burial Granny at the chest of Vladimir the Winter Defiant.
The reason why the head is not aligned is that there is no need.
The pure white sawn-off shotgun called "The Bone Collector's Forgiveness" was something that was born before the concept of "gun" appeared. It is not a problem to say that it is the oldest gun or the prototype of a shotgun.
But in the ancient past, the "Bone Picker's Forgiveness" obviously had other uses -
It has no magazine, no safety, and no easy-to-reset trigger.
The lower part of this magic gun is more similar to a powerful pliers than a shotgun.
Annan had a vague, strange feeling.
It's just like……
As long as you want to, you can "erase" this person.
On the other side, Vladimir also felt that the sense of crisis suddenly rose.
When Annan just took out this weapon, he immediately felt a chill running down his spine - Vladimir's extraordinary perception could make him alert to attacks that could kill him.
In fact, Vladimir did not know the specific effect of this weapon.
But he could tell from the chill down his spine that as long as he was brushed aside by it, he might be dead...and not even Black Mameni could resist its effect.
However, since it needs to aim at itself and put the hand in the "firing position", it means that it is not a conditional firing or a thought firing.
In other words, it must have a "firing" action.
Vladimir narrowed his eyes and thought quickly.
"...five, four, three..."
The tragedy writer's countdown has not yet stopped.
But Vladimir has finalized his tactics.
——Since it needs to be fired, Annan must have some action if he wants to launch an attack.
How fast can he fire?
0.1 second? 0.01 second? Or shorter?
But, no matter what——
Vladimir took a deep breath. The noble avatar behind him was stirring restlessly, and a dark and desperate realm spread out beneath him. It was also like an awakened living creature... gradually crawling towards Annan.
——No matter what, Annan must make an "attack action"!
"...Two, one!"
Without hesitation, the tragic writer raised his gun and pulled the trigger.
At the moment when gunshots pierced the sky.
Vladimir's pupils suddenly turned into abyss-like black.
This is... the first incapacitation school spell unique to the Hand of Winter that he learned when he was the "Hand of Winter".
It's called [Deep Cold Gaze].
The pure black ice condensed from the heart of the Hand of Winter is enough to freeze the enemy's sense of time - in other words, it is a spell that uses one's own negative emotions as a trigger to instantly shock the minds of those who are looking at it.
The stronger the negative emotions such as hatred, fear, despair, etc. held in the heart, the colder the black ice becomes.
Because the activation conditions for this spell only require eye contact to be triggered - with a 100% hit rate, even a Silver level wizard will be shocked.
Because this spell is not dizziness, coma or hypnosis.
Instead, it suspends the enemy's perception of the passage of time.
It's like being in a daze for a while, and suddenly realizing that a long time has passed - the effect of this spell is to "ignore part of the time."
He didn't realize that he was being controlled at all... so there was no way to talk about the possibility of lifting the control.
The powerful will attribute can still greatly weaken the control time. But even if the wizard with the Silver Soul succeeds in saving, he will still be controlled for an instant.
At this moment, another incapacitation spell can be used.
——[Loss of fighting spirit]!
It can only be used against enemies who are unable to control their bodies due to various reasons. It freezes the opponent's "offensive consciousness" in a short period of time. This spell will give priority to removing the negative state of "unable to control the body" when it is saved by the extraordinary will for the first time.
as an alternative.
A skill that beats the drowned dog hard and forces a change of initiative.
When used in combination with [Deep Cold Gaze], it can make the opponent stop attacking immediately no matter what - thus ensuring the upper hand during the raid.
The combination of these two spells is also the source of the dark legend of Hand of Winter:
According to legend, the Hand of Winter is an incapacitated wizard who has completely frozen his inner emotions and is an emotionless monitor.
They can instantly freeze the enemy's mind, making the opponent lose the ability to resist. They can even freeze a certain memory of another person, or a certain emotion in their heart, turning the enemy into a friend...
Compared with the spells of the Ice Vein Warlock series, the Hand of Winter is actually more proficient in the "Silence Warlock" series of spells. This is closer to the spells of the Soul-stealing school, but it lacks plasticity.
The reason why this new school of thought is named "disablement" is that in addition to the frost of "losing heat", it also includes the "loss of power" in the soul.
——Yes, from the beginning, Vladimir had no intention of using the power of elements to attack Annan first.
As Vladimir also knows, Annan is carrying a secret of creation... He is also a ritual master. In other words, the "ten fingers" of the superior Winter Hand must understand some ritual knowledge more or less.
Just by looking at the weight of Annan's soul, he knew that he must hold a secret of creation.
This level of mysterious knowledge is indeed power in itself.
It is also enough to severely damage or even kill Vladimir.
but……
——Only the secret words about winter will not kill Annan. Because Annan holds the reversed Heart of Winter, he is immune to fatal blows from frost attacks.
All other secrets of creation will be destroyed together with Annan.
Whether Annan dares to use this mysterious knowledge is another matter...
Even if what Annan holds is really the secret of creation given to him by his grandmother... Annan simply doesn't have the time to read it out.
——Singing also takes time, and it can only be sung with your mouth. The recording equipment cannot bear that level of power.
And Vladimir is obviously not the kind of BOSS who...will watch the hero transform or stand still while the hero casts Memory Kill to buff himself.
If Annan really dared to stand and chant, he would definitely be defeated.
Annan naturally knew about this.
So he won't use this kind of killing move with extremely long delay.
His only means of attack is that strange gun.
For the same reason, Vladimir will not use his elemental power.
Vladimir's elemental power, which has been purified enough to unfold his sublime disguise, is indeed his strongest spear.
It was like the moment they just met - Annan was completely unable to resist this attack, and he only needed one blow to paralyze Annan instantly.
But the expansion of the field itself takes time.
The power of the element can only take effect on enemies within the area, or enemies touched by the noble avatar.
So Vladimir specially activated the power of his elements, as if he wanted to use the power of elements to attack Annan... But in the end, he feinted with a shot and took control of Annan first!
"Sorry, I won."
Vladimir took a deep breath.
From the very beginning, he had no intention of killing Annan.
Just like what he said——
He will never repent until the end.
Because as long as he can still move, Vladimir will never give up!
If you can successfully perform the first round of control, you can use the characteristics of the Hand of Winter to freeze Annan's hostility. If [Loss of Fighting Will] successfully eliminates Annan's desire to attack, you can then use [Forced Peace] to further
Stop Annan's actions.
If the [Forced Peace] state lasts for a certain period of time, you can use [Friendly Technique] to add a "harmless" label to yourself.
Then you can use [Host Elimination] to turn enemies into friends.
After completely losing hostility, you can use [Advanced Friendly Technique] to obtain the label of a "close person". After that, whether you want to use hypnosis to control the other party or conduct interrogation, you will get more accurate results, and you can even directly transfer
Entering the realm of the soul-stealing school and starting to modify memories.
The Hand of Winter is like this... As long as you are hit and controlled once, you will face an endless stream of various chain control professions.
This is one of the chain transformation directions.
In addition, there is also the "capture mode" where a person's mind and personality are completely frozen and turned into a puppet; or the "interference mode" where the mind and body are controlled alternately.
This is exactly the spellcasting skill they use to serve the Archduke of Winter and protect the holders of the "Heart of Winter".
Now it is being used by Vladimir against Annan Winter.
This is exactly what the tragedian wants to see -
But when Vladimir quickly chanted the incapacitation spell [Forced Peace].
But he suddenly saw the corners of Annan's mouth rising slightly.
At that moment, Vladimir's pupils suddenly tightened.
Annan just...actually had no desire to attack?
As long as the opponent wants to attack, [Loss of Fighting Will] can completely freeze this emotion.
But if this thought does not exist in Annan's mind at all, the effect of [Loss of Fighting Will] will be completely nullified.
The soul-stealing spell like [Fear Deepening] must require the opponent's [Fear] to be strong enough to be manifested to the surface of consciousness; but the [Fearless] idol school spell can be cast without the [Fear] state.
.
Generally speaking, the Hand of Winter will not directly use [Loss of Fighting Will] on an enemy that it knows nothing about.
This means controlling the break.
Instead, it increases the possibility of the opponent's saving throw against [Deep Cold Gaze].
The follow-up of [Deep Cold Gaze] can also be connected with [Deep Cold Manifestation], so that when the opponent's mind is frozen, the body is also frozen; or it can also be connected with [Eye of Sloth] to further strengthen the deep cold.
The control effect of cold gaze.
When [Loss of Will to Fight] is connected, it is usually when facing a kidnapper or a dark wizard who is about to attack... This happens when the opponent has already gained the upper hand and has to stop him.
As for Vladimir, his previous hints of "I have lost", "I hate disgraceful fights", and the final rule he proposed to Annan that "no one is allowed to escape or evade" are themselves a
trap.
As long as Annan believed it and planned to seize the time to attack Vladimir first - his right to take the initiative would be completely lost.
Even, Vladimir directly took away control of the mind!
Then he used the Three Sirens on Vladimir... to confirm Vladimir's prophecy!
...Is it possible that Annan predicted his actions from the very beginning?
Even giving up the right to take the initiative, betting that he will use the standard "attack routine" of the Hand of Winter?
But in that case, if he uses the power of elements... Annan will have no chance of fighting back!
This is simply a gamble!
--wrong!
Vladimir suddenly saw the three sirens behind Annan...
I don’t know when, it has lost a color!
But that's not the white color that belongs to "Crazy Blood".
...At that moment, Vladimir understood.
Annan's decision...is the same as his.
He pretended to attack with the power of elements, but actually used incapacitating spells triggered by vision - and Annan did not regard that strange gun as the only hope for a comeback.
"——Ligeya!"
Annan shouted the siren's real name "Qing Tiao".
A blue, extremely beautiful brilliance flashed past Vladimir.
He didn't even see what the siren named "Ligea" looked like.
His right hand suddenly became empty——
The calmness and indifference that had been isolated from the world also dissipated instantly with the disappearance of Heimameni.
Or... it's more than that.
His entire consciousness was gradually dissipating.
The first thing that was lost was the insight into sound. The whole world turned into silence... followed by color, and then light.
He is no longer angry or in pain. He no longer misses or hesitates.
——So Vladimir stopped thinking quietly like an unborn fetus.
