Chapter 35: The Guardian



Being both offensive and defensive has always been the hobby of many warriors. Therefore, after continuous research, a profession of holding a shield and a long sword to fight was gradually formed. This is the entry-level knight that appeared at this time.

In their hands, the shield is not only a protective gear, but also a powerful combat weapon. At the same time, the entry-level knight does not become cumbersome because of carrying a shield. Instead, he has unique footwork and body movements and is quite flexible.

Facing such a strange enemy, Du Yuqi played very carefully, often using only three-tenths of his strength to attack and seven-tenths to parry and defend, leaving no opportunity for the opponent to take advantage.

Faced with Du Yuqi's tactic of "not seeking merit but avoiding mistakes", the beginner knight was very frustrated, and his repeated attacks were all resolved by Du Yuqi.

When he finally hit Du Yuqi with a blow, he discovered that this guy was wearing heavy armor with good defensive power. The blow from the sword could really be described as painless, and it was probably just a few scratches on the skin. Facing this slippery and ruthless opponent, the beginner knight felt like he was trying to catch a mouse and a turtle, and he became more and more impatient.

This beginner knight didn't know that Du Yuqi had gained a lot from this conservative style of fighting! In this harsh actual combat, Du Yuqi could clearly feel that his control over the weapon was significantly increasing. At the same time, he was also quickly integrating some of the unfamiliar swordsmanship he had learned. His efficiency could be said to be at least several times that of private practice.

At the same time, Du Yuqi was also carefully observing the opponent's movement habits and the emphasis of his moves. On the surface, he did not reveal it at all, but in fact he was beginning to calculate the enemy's next move in his mind. Therefore, although he seemed to be in a passive situation, he was actually gradually gaining control of the battle situation.

Seeing that the situation of the Goblin Alliance was getting worse and worse, with signs of complete defeat, Du Yuqi realized that he could not delay any longer, otherwise in a minute or two a gunman nearby would be free to attack him. In order to avoid such a situation, he took a deep breath, stepped back half a step, and deliberately exposed a flaw.

This beginner knight had long been accustomed to suppressing Du Yuqi, and his vigilance had faded a lot. All he was thinking about at this moment was how to kill this sticky guy in front of him as quickly as possible. Therefore, facing the flaw exposed by Du Yuqi, he immediately took a step forward and slashed with his sword!

This novice knight had already noticed one thing before, that is, Du Yuqi's strength is extremely great, just like a berserker who can convert pain and damage into strength. Therefore, his sword was also a test. If the opponent took this sword, then unfortunately the tug-of-war would have to continue. If this sword could create an opportunity, then there would be a set of combos like a storm for the enemy to enjoy.

Therefore, this sword of the beginner knight can be said to be real and fake, showing his rich combat experience.

With a crisp sound of "dang", Du Yuqi seemed to be repelled by the force of the sword and stumbled back two steps. Seeing the opportunity, the beginner knight immediately took a step forward, stepped his right foot deeply into the mud in front of him, and then kicked it hard! A large cloud of dust was rolled up!

This powerful kick is already a professional skill of the beginner knight, which will consume his mental strength. It will cause kick damage and flying sand damage to the enemy. If all hits, it will even cause the enemy's eyes to be filled with sand for a short time, causing blindness.

Du Yuqi groaned, covered his stomach and staggered back, while rubbing his eyes with his hands. It was obvious that he was kicked hard!

Seeing the enemy's appearance, the beginner knight immediately became impolite. He sneered and threw the shield in his left hand violently, causing it to spin at high speed and roll towards Du Yuqi. There was a huge force contained in it. Once it hits, the enemy will be directly blown into the air and float in the air, and the shield will fly back to its owner's hand!

Shield pick!

This move is also a compulsory course for beginner knights. It is an authentic shield skill. Although the damage is not high, it can make the enemy float in the air just like a swordsman's uppercut.

Once the enemy is in an unprotected floating state, the beginner knight will use a long-planned set of gorgeous combos to let him feel his anger.

However, just as the "Shield Pick" was launched, Du Yuqi, who was still stumbling backwards, suddenly took a step back, and stood firm all of a sudden, and then held the sword in his hand diagonally in front of him! Because this ordinary sword was infused with the surging Force, it suddenly shone with a faint white light.

The flying shield hit the sword with a clang, and immediately the ordinary sword turned into a bow shape. It looked as if it could not withstand the huge force and was about to break, making a "creaking" sound!

Du Yuqi also took two or three steps back, and finally exerted force to block the shield that was thrown at him.

This move was the elementary swordsmanship that Du Yuqi had learned: blocking! It required a very high timing for release, but once it was successfully performed, it could be said to be very effective in eliminating the opponent's offensive.

The novice knight's shield missed, and the following series of combos could not be launched. While the opponent was reaching out to catch the flying shield, Du Yuqi had already raised his sword and slashed at him. At this time, his basic swordsmanship had been practiced to perfection. After several consecutive slashes, the novice knight was sweating profusely and was unable to move.

Spotting a flaw in the opponent, Du Yuqi suddenly moved sideways, and then started with an upward slash, knocking the opponent into a floating state. Then the blade was raised and slashed in the air at an extremely fast speed, and the energy overflowing from the blade just formed a light red cross and cut towards the enemy.

This is the swordsman's cross slash. Once you change your job to a berserker, this cross slash will be automatically strengthened into a blood cross!

This beginner knight was not seriously injured after being hit by the cross slash in mid-air. However, Du Yuqi discovered when practicing swordsmanship before that as long as he connected well, he could also connect with a wave-splitting slash before the opponent hit the ground, inject the energy into the enemy's body, and use the sword energy to grab the enemy.
