Rock Armor! Rock Light Shield! First, he cast a double defense magic on his body. Feeling the thick barrier, Lei Te felt relieved. At the same time, he looked at the ground in front of him and silently mobilized his mental power! At this time, Hogus, who had already passed the landing point of the boulder, suddenly noticed the fluctuation of the earth element at his feet. The alarm sounded in his heart, but he did not change his running trajectory at all. With a dark sneer, the long sword in his hand burst out with a dazzling green light, vaguely like a white tiger roaring, and the half-moon slashed forward, just right to smash the ground spikes directly!
It seemed effortless to break through the ground blockade. Although Hogus's speed slowed down slightly, it was still faster than going around and moving forward.
"As expected of a prince who grew up in the palace... The training and upbringing he received since childhood is probably beyond the reach of ordinary people. He found the best way to deal with it so easily!" Rhett sighed inwardly. He could feel the opponent's strength just through the small details at the beginning.
So he didn't hold back anymore and decided to go all out.
Quicksand! The battle just now took only a moment. Lei Te used his mental power to control the land more than 20 meters in front of him, turning it into quicksand.
"It's too easy!" Hogus smiled.
He had already summed up his experience in dealing with earth magicians, which was nothing more than guarding against three weapons - falling rocks, quicksand, and ground spikes. These magics had a significant blocking effect on the knight's advance.
Since childhood, Hogus has received countless targeted training in fighting against magicians and knights of various types. It has become almost a combat instinct for him. Once he senses any abnormality, he will come up with the best way to deal with it.
I saw him bending his left leg to the left, pushing the ground with his right leg, and his body flashing as if moving sideways. The next moment he appeared on the left side of the quicksand. Then he bent his right leg, leaned his body to the right, pushed the ground hard with his left leg, and burst into another amazing bounce.
Just like a cannonball fired from a turret, with a powerful boost, each step could allow it to leap dozens of meters, and it bypassed the range of the quicksand technique in three steps.
Earth Cone Technique! At this moment, Leiter, who had experienced many battles, was shocked. He found a flaw. When Hogus jumped at high speed, his body would be suspended in the air for a short time and out of control.
“Good opportunity!”
A spike of ochre-colored light suddenly condensed in the air and shot towards the outside of Hogus's right leg with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
Several powerful men who were observing the battle not far away had a strange look in their eyes.
"not simple!"
"This spike was not released randomly. In the short time just now, the frequency of the third prince's lower limb movements was determined, and the landing point of the third prince's footsteps was targeted." A sky knight holding a rapier narrowed his eyes.
"This Earl Rhett is really capable. The Third Prince must not take him lightly!"
One of the two great magicians happened to be an earth magician. He locked his eyes on Leiter with an interested look, "As expected of someone who has been on the battlefield, your top observation and adaptability are truly surprising!"
Faced with the unusual situation, Hogus's face changed slightly. Originally, as long as his fighting skills were functioning normally, his next leap would have taken him to a position ten meters in front of Rhett. However, he was stabbed by the sharp angle of the spike and had no choice but to raise his legs high. The light of his fighting spirit flashed, which destroyed his continuity. He had to terminate his leap early in a rather embarrassing manner.
When he landed hastily, he was still twenty meters away from Rhett.
With a burning desire in his eyes, Hogus changed his strategy in time and suddenly threw the sword in his hand out! "Swoosh!"
Like a stream of electric charge, the long sword drew a thin line of light and went straight for Rhett's throat!
This move was a bit unexpected, and Rhett's face was startled, but when he saw Hogus, who did not rush in a straight line but went around to the other side, he felt something in his heart, as if he had guessed the other party's plan.
Immediately, he turned around with a "nervous" expression, and ignored the flying sword, allowing it to pierce directly into his body, piercing the outermost layer of rock light shield into pieces, like a dense spider web splitting, and suddenly turned into earth elements floating in the sky.
But he still had a layer of Rock Armor on his body that he had not used. The reason why he did not use the Armor of Earth was that he thought there was no need to expose himself, and the Rock Armor was enough to deal with the current situation.
Then, Hogus came to his right side and punched Rhett in the face.
"It looks like it's about to end. This Rhett is indeed a leader in his class, but he is still not good enough when facing the Third Prince..." The Great Earth Mage sighed regretfully.
"Tsk tsk, I wonder how many magicians have fallen at the hands of the Third Prince. To him, an earth magician is nothing more than a sandbag with a slightly harder shell!" The Sky Knight holding a rapier seemed to see that Rhett's Rock Armor Technique would be broken in the next moment, and then he would become an "ordinary person" who would be captured without a fight.
At this time, everyone increased their attention and paid close attention to the battle situation.
However, a scene that made Hogus feel incredible appeared!
The fist should have landed on the opponent's forehead as usual, but his battle instinct, which had been tempered for thousands of years, suddenly made him feel a sense of life and death crisis! He was shocked to find that a spike had "drilled out" from Rhett's stomach! That's right, the visual effect was like this. The distance between the two was less than one meter, and this sudden spike appeared directly in an unexpected way, flying out from Rhett's stomach and stabbing into Hogus's lower abdomen.
The five high-level warriors who were watching from the side originally thought that the battle was about to end, and were even ready to step forward to congratulate the third prince.
Some people have even thought about their congratulatory remarks, how to give compliments in a brief but non-greasy way.
But the expressions on their faces suddenly began to solidify when Rhett performed the mystery of dispersion, as if they were hit by petrification magic, and stood there in a daze.
Everyone stared with eyes wide open, looking at the figure whose waist area had turned into loose quicksand in disbelief!
"Impossible! What did I see? A sixth-level magician actually realized the mystery of dispersion!" The earth-type great magician lost his composure and roared wildly in his heart! He is now a ninth-level great magician, but he can't comprehend the slightest prototype of the mystery. Comprehending the mystery has always been his dream.
Those who can comprehend the mysteries before entering the Holy Land are definitely geniuses. In the entire royal family, only the third prince has achieved this! The other three sky knights were also shocked. His eyes flashed, and he looked at Leiter again, without any contempt in his heart.
At this moment, everyone knew that although Earl Rhett's status was far inferior to that of the third prince, in terms of talent, he was probably not inferior at all.
"The desertification state affects the waist and abdomen, and he can control the cone spikes to penetrate accurately. His understanding of the mystery of dispersion must have reached a very deep level. Those who have just comprehended the rudiments can only temporarily control a certain part to undergo desertification, and they can't reach Count Rhett's level at all!" The knowledgeable knight judged, his eyes shining with shrewdness.
"The Third Prince is in danger now. If we take it lightly, our chances of winning will be greatly reduced..." The Sky Knight holding the rapier made a new analysis.
At this moment, Hogus's adrenaline secretion reached its peak, every cell was trembling and beating, and he retracted his fist.
At the critical moment, he twisted his body to the side to avoid being stabbed in the center of his waist and abdomen, but the sharp thorn still pierced the area near his ribs, leaving a small bloody hole. Hogus knew his body very well, and when he dodged, his ribs were not stabbed, only his skin and waist flesh were injured.
This little bit of pain was easily suppressed, the green fighting spirit flowed, and the bleeding wound was temporarily stopped.
He moved sideways and caught the long sword that had just passed through Rhett and continued to fly in the air.
Then he looked at Lei Te with surprise and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Just now... was that the mystery of dispersion?"
As a prince, he has been exposed to much more knowledge and secrets, as well as understanding of the mysteries of various disciplines than most people.
Lei Te nodded and admitted generously: "Yes, it is the mystery of dispersion. I gained some insights when I advanced to the sixth-level magician."
There were other people around, so Leiter couldn't reveal the existence of the sand elves at this time. Moreover, even if there was no one around, he didn't intend to say that he had realized the mystery of dispersion by fleecing the sand elves. If it were spread out like this, it would be even more shocking. It would be better to attribute it to his own talent.
"Should we continue this battle?" Rhett asked calmly.
"Hahaha, of course!" Hogus was not surprised but happy. He became even more excited. With such an opponent, he could have no worries and show his full strength!
"I didn't use my full strength just now, Earl Rhett, you have to be careful next time!" Hogus' eyes flashed with excitement. There is nothing more joyful than finding an equal opponent in the same level.
The Sky Knight and the Grand Mage who were watching the battle nearby actually felt their moods fluctuate along with the battle between the two intermediate-level warriors, and they couldn't help but look forward to the subsequent fights.
Unlike others, as the prince's guards, they were very clear about Hogus's strength. They knew that Hogus had comprehended the rudiments of the mysteries of the wind element, and his level of comprehension was not shallow.
In other words, the two people confronting each other before them also represent the showdown between the wind mysteries and the earth mysteries!
It is rare in the history of the Kingdom of Jinlun, and they have never seen it before. Today they have the opportunity to appreciate it...
Their eyes were fixed firmly on Rhett and Hogus, who were more than ten meters apart. They no longer had the initial carelessness and a hint of playfulness.
"Third Prince, please come over here!" Rhett's expression remained unchanged, and he was trying hard to adjust his state in his heart to reach a point where he was fully focused and had no external thoughts.
In his eyes, there was only Hogus. The next moment, Hogus in his sight flashed with green light and disappeared directly.
When he looked up again, he found that Hogus had leaped high into the air behind him, and the long sword in his hand slashed directly from top to bottom.
Hogus was striking the air, but there was clearly nothing in the air.
At this moment, Lei Te sensed a subtle spatial fluctuation, and his pupils shrank suddenly as he remembered the opponent's fighting methods in the simulation. The next moment, this feeling became even stronger, and the space in front of him seemed to be split in two, and his heart seemed to be torn apart by the invisible sword energy that was about to come.
When it was used by Hogus at this time, although it did not reach the level of actually causing a hole in the space, it did cause a wave like tearing the space.
Although it was mentioned in the simulation, it was a different feeling in actual combat. Rhett was unable to dodge, so he gritted his teeth and cast a fifth-level magic - Earth Shock!
Buzz buzz buzz The space was shaking, and a chaotic force field was entangled in the air. Hogus's face changed slightly. He had just cast the Dimensional Wind, and his body was briefly stiff. He was caught by Leiter and dragged into this control magic.
He looked down, and just as the dimensional wind blew on Leiter, easily tearing the rock armor and cutting off one of his arms, a faint earth element wave suddenly spread in the sky. The next moment, a backward cone thorn fell from the sky, bringing a great danger. Even though Hogus was extremely fast, he was restricted by the position of the earth-shaking technique and could only barely twist his body. The triceps of his left arm was also directly cut into a bloody cut.
The corner of Hogus' mouth twitched. He had experienced this injury countless times in the past training and could easily endure it, so he didn't take it seriously. But when he saw Rhett below, his broken arm healed quickly like quicksand after being blown by the dimensional wind, his face turned ugly.
“Alas, it is worthy of being the most difficult mystery of dispersion among the earth-based mysteries. It cannot be killed and cannot be cut off!” Hogus sighed helplessly.
After hearing this, Leiter did not show any pride because of Hogus's praise. On the contrary, when he saw Hogus use the Dimensional Wind, even though he had known it for a long time, he still pretended to be shocked at the right time: "Third Prince, what move did you just use? It can easily break my Rock Armor Technique. Even if I just used the Mystery of Dispersion to avoid damage, the consumption of mental energy has greatly increased."
"Mysterious - the wind of dimension!" Hogus's voice fell lightly.
When Rhett heard this, he cooperated and showed shock again.
After all, he had to be like a normal person and not appear too calm when hearing the news of the mysteries, so as not to expose the fact that he knew the future vision.
"No wonder, this time the wind of the Yuan Dynasty is too strong for me." Rhett's expression became serious.
"Keep fighting, I won't show mercy!" Hogus's voice came again, and then he broke free from the influence of the Earth Shaking Technique. After landing, he jumped like a nimble monkey and rushed straight towards Rhett.
"Pterosaur Slash!"
Along with the long sword in Hogus's hand, an extreme light burst out, and the shadow of a pterosaur was looming in the light, accompanied by a whistling wind all around. For a moment, the sky and the earth were filled with flying sand and rocks, and smoke and dust.
Lei Te snorted coldly, "The earth element is under my control, fall!"
In an instant, like obedient tadpoles, the smoke and dust blown into the air fell down and returned to the embrace of Mother Earth.
But the next second, an extremely violent force fell on Rhett. In addition to being fast, the wind could still cause a huge impact like a typhoon.
Rhett was hit by the force and flew backwards instantly. After landing, he stood up as if nothing had happened.
But his face did not look good. In the previous move, Hogus was quite smart. After knowing that the slashing attack was ineffective, he adopted this kind of large-scale attack fighting technique.
As a last resort, Rhett could only turn his entire body into sand to offset the impact force, but the consumption was naturally much greater than local sandification.
Pterosaur Slash! Seeing that his plan worked, Hogus decided to continue and consume the opponent's mental strength first!
Facing Hogus who used the same old trick again, a layer of rock armor and rock light shield appeared in front of Rhett again.
Boom! The rock light shield was impacted and dissipated like glass shards. The remaining force hit the rock armor, but it failed to break through this barrier.
Ground stab! Swoosh! The spikes broke out of the ground and emerged from under Hogus's feet, but were dodged by his nimble footsteps, passing by the outside of his thigh.
While dodging, the tip of Hogus's sword suddenly burst into brilliant light, and he used an advanced fighting skill - Blue Bird Strike!
Rhett was unable to dodge and his rock armor was pierced by the sword.
At this moment, Rhett showed a sly smile as if his plan had succeeded, and suddenly a strong attraction came from under his and Hogus' feet.
As a spellcaster, Rhett was not affected, but Hogus was like being stuck in a quagmire. The advantage of his nimble steps was lost in an instant, and he moved as slowly as a turtle.
"It's bad. The third prince has fallen into the quicksand. The situation is very unfavorable." A sky knight holding a rapier frowned.
"If he can't break free in time, two spikes will take the life of a level six Earth Knight." A Sky Knight holding a giant sword sighed.
"The Third Prince was still careless. How could he fall into such a trap so easily? But then again, Rhett's combat awareness is also excellent, and any mistakes can be easily captured. His ability to find opportunities is one of the best among all the magicians I have seen." The Earth Mage praised.
Earth Cone Technique! The Sand Wolf Roars!
Rhett calmly cast two magic spells, and just in time Hogus also broke free from the quicksand. However, facing the three sand wolves surrounding him with all their might, and the spikes falling from the sky above his head, his mood suddenly turned bad.
This scene can be described as a sure kill!
Even Leiter couldn't think of a better way to resolve the situation. If the opponent had a hard shield, he might be able to deal with the current crisis, but unfortunately, the opponent had planned to win by speed from the beginning. Now that he was in this situation, it was difficult to turn the tables! "Alas, it seems that Count Leiter won this round by a small margin." The Sky Knight holding the rapier shook his head slightly, not very satisfied with the result.
He had already thought of words of comfort, as well as how he would provide guidance and suggestions to the Third Prince and point out his shortcomings as a sky knight and bystander.
Hogus's eyes were bloodshot, and he felt that he was in a desperate situation. His blood was boiling and his brain cells were jumping. In this extreme state, the wind element between heaven and earth in Hogus's eyes suddenly changed inexplicably, and the trajectory of the wind between heaven and earth showed a mysterious color.
God Hogus fell into a brief confusion, and the trajectory of the dimensional wind gradually became clear in his eyes.
The realization came and went quickly. A gleam of light flashed in Hogus's eyes, and a subtle realization surged in his heart. As if possessed by a magic power, he swung out a shocking sword with his right arm.
A vague ripple appeared in the air.
A crescent-shaped sword energy destroyed two sand wolves with ease. The remaining one was bitten by Hogus by twisting his waist, while it also avoided the thorns that fell from the sky.
The situation was averted and Hogus successfully escaped from the desperate situation.
The invisible sword blade is extremely fast, a step up from the dimensional wind displayed by Hogus at the beginning. Its speed, size, and power have been comprehensively improved!
“What an amazing speed!”
Leiter was not prepared for this sword attack. He even wondered if he was going to win easily. But this sword attack not only dispelled his doubts, but also pushed him into a desperate situation! In his spiritual perception, this sword attack was like a sharp blade, exuding an extremely dangerous meaning. When his spiritual power was close to the perception, he could feel a tearing sensation.
Rhett's face turned slightly pale, and a thought came to his mind that even if he used the mystery of dispersion, he would be seriously injured. This sword energy was difficult to block!
What to do, what to do! Lei Te's mind was full of thoughts. He didn't want to get hurt, and he didn't want to admit defeat! Subconsciously, the mystery of dispersion surged wildly under his control. With his whole body turned into sand, Lei Te didn't feel safe at all !
Wow wow wow
The mysterious flow of dispersion is like a stream, which is an effect that can only be produced when it is stimulated to the extreme.
The earth elements are becoming more and more dense, jumping around wildly without any pattern, and seem to be hiding endless mysteries.
At this moment, all that was left in Rhett's eyes was a ray of sword energy and endless quicksand.
The sand-yellow earth element particles were dancing. In Lei Te's eyes, one handful of quicksand and another handful of quicksand came together inadvertently. They did not intersect but overlapped directly...
This handful of quicksand suddenly became extremely solid, as if a piece of steel fell into a stream and fell into Rhett's mind!
Buzz
Rhett just felt his head suddenly become dizzy, and his mind was filled with a strange yet familiar feeling!
"It turns out it's not squeezing, it's overlapping..." Rhett muttered to himself.
“Hahaha, I understand!”
A flash of enlightenment came to Lei Te's mind. While laughing, his body remained motionless. The quicksand in front of him stopped flowing in an instant and turned into a completely different dark yellow solid. It looked plain and simple, but it was actually solid as a rock. The eyes of the onlookers were stunned! "Impossible! A breakthrough was made in the battle. How could the mystery of Condensation be realized so easily!" The earth-type great mage could no longer hold back. Not only did he shout in his heart, but even his face was distorted.
