Chapter 65: The True Slash of the Holy Saint
Amber Xiu had never really thought of assassinating these holy warriors. He always felt that the success rate was low and it would expose his true strength too early.
He had accurately estimated Fanxing's strength. He might not be able to defeat a holy warrior. Regardless of winning or losing, the equipment on Fanxing alone could increase his combat power tenfold. It would be very difficult to completely kill the opponent.
Ten holy knights gathered together, and if Amberxiu left the castle and took the initiative to attack, it would be no different from committing suicide.
Not to mention that those bastards in Alchemy City really didn't help at all. They just looked like they were watching a show. I don't know what they were planning.
Therefore, using the castle's geographical advantages for defense has always been Amber's plan.
It is reasonable that a mage should not leave his own mage tower.
As a result, a few days ago, Withered Rose sent him a message, telling Amberxiu about Fanxing's operation of recruiting mortals, and reminding him that the Ryan Empire had a way to borrow the power of this group of mortals.
Amberxiu didn't care about their training of mortals. No matter what kind of power it was, it would eventually collide head-on with the castle's defense system. If it worked, it worked, and if it didn't, it didn't. There was nothing to say.
But how could the Withered Rose know what the group of paladins were doing? After the private chat, Amber found that the Withered Rose had a way to monitor the actions of the group of paladins. Amber immediately asked about the details of the actions of the group of paladins in the past few days.
The result surprised him. Fanxing actually dared to go drinking alone, and more than once.
I can only say that young people are still too young.
This is the Alchemy City, where many alien races gather. How dare you go to the bar alone? I can only say that these paladins are still inexperienced. Do they really think that they can't enter the city just because Amber built a castle outside the city? Fanxing was too careless and thought that the Alchemist Council agreed to let them rescue people by themselves, which was equivalent to tacitly protecting their actions in the city.
In their eyes, the city’s managers should be on the same side as the people in the city, which made Fanxing let down his guard.
However, he is also a skilled and courageous person. If Amber did not have enough cards up his sleeve, this assassination would really be meaningless.
But now that Gareth has taken action, the situation is completely different.
A four-meter-tall giant, his equipment is more luxurious than the stars, and his martial arts have been refined over hundreds of years, reaching the pinnacle of human skills.
Gareth's first strike brought Fanxing to his knees, and the entire ground cracked into a spider web.
The power of the legendary headless knight was not something Fanxing could resist. With just one sword, he cut through most of the protective spells on his body, and even cracks appeared on the long sword in his hand.
The hilt of the serrated long knife was tied with a chain. When it was pulled back forcefully, it scraped out large sparks on Fanxing's sword and almost hooked him out.
Fanxing had to roll on the ground, and while the opponent's long sword was retracted, he filled himself with two bottles of magic potions, one for healing and the other for hill giant strength.
The blow almost shattered his internal organs, and he felt better after drinking the healing potion. The second bottle of Hill Giant Strength Potion was a real high-end product, which could greatly enhance his strength and withstand the opponent's attack... right?
Fanxing held the cracked sword tightly, not having much confidence in his heart.
What if that knife strike just now was just a test?
Fanxing had no idea how strong this terrifying giant was.
Gareth retracted the sword. The two-meter-long sword seemed smaller in his hand, making him look like an agile warrior.
But when Gareth swung the chain, the huge roar of the blade's rotation shattered the glass on both sides of the street. The blade scraped across the ground, leaving deep marks with sparks flying, easier than cutting tofu.
Seeing this scene, Fanxing hurriedly added the power of a bear to himself. This monster was too terrifying. Even the hill giant was definitely not as strong as him.
A dark purple light flashed in the pitch-black helmet, and Gareth swung his sword again, this time with purple lightning wrapped around the blade.
The lightning enchantment, coupled with terrifying force, caused a sonic boom when the blade passed through the air, leaving behind a clear turbulence.
This is the power of legend. If a mortal encounters such a tough guy on the battlefield, he will be torn into pieces by the wind from his sword.
Fanxing felt even more pressure because the knife was aimed at him.
At this moment, Fanxing finally experienced what it meant to be thunderous. He had to gather the power of holy light and use the Holy Slash on the purple lightning long sword.
Holy light and flames wrapped around the long sword, emitting an even brighter light. It went upstream and collided with the purple lightning long sword, instantly causing a loud noise like an explosion.
The violent shock wave shattered the houses on both sides.
Amber Xiu was watching the battle from the sidelines, and he was also feeling emotional. He was a poor imitator, and there was a huge gap between him and Gareth. With the purple lightning long sword swinging over, his castle and its defense system would not be able to hold out for long.
He is worthy of being the pillar of shame of the Ryan Empire. His absolute power without any frills is really scary.
Fanxing could not withstand such an attack. After the second blow, his sword was completely shattered and his body was smashed deeply into the ground. If the armor on his body was not of high-end quality, this blow would have been enough to split him in half.
But now Fanxing was also seriously injured. Not only was his sword broken, but his armor was also twisted and deformed, and he had no idea how many bones were broken.
Gareth retracted the long knife and said a little unhappily: "I haven't used any strength yet."
Amber thought, this big guy killed people, and he also killed their hearts, which was a bit too much. After all, they were hostages, and they could be exchanged for money from the Alchemy City, so they should be given the necessary respect for money.
Amberxiu floated over and was about to grab the stars, but suddenly he saw dazzling holy light erupting from the deep pit.
Amberxiu was so frightened that he quickly dodged and was almost illuminated by the holy light.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Fanxing's severely injured body slowly floated out of the pit, and the twisted armor was repaired in the holy light, and a more gorgeous and complex pattern was born than before. The fragmented enchantment magic circle was reactivated and even became more powerful under the blessing of the holy light.
Fanxing's body was also recovering rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, all injuries were completely healed. Even his eyes turned platinum, as if he had become a different person.
Amber Xiu was not surprised when he saw this scene. He just said in a pitiful tone: "Young Holy Knight, you are courting death. How long can you last after burning your life to briefly break through to the legendary level? One minute? Or thirty seconds?!"
The stars laughed in the holy light and said, "I told them that they could sacrifice their lives to defeat evil. As a holy warrior, how could I be afraid of something that ordinary people can do? It's just death."
Fanxing raised his hands high, and a long sword made entirely of holy light condensed in his hands.
"Holy Light, grant me the power to purify evil!"
The stars shouted the declaration and used the power of their burning lives to swing a sword at Gareth that was as sharp as a rainbow piercing the sun.
This is a true holy warrior, this is the true Holy Slash! The dazzling holy light illuminated half of the Alchemy City, causing many people to think that the sun had risen early.
Pushing open the doors and windows, you can see the huge holy sword piercing the sky, slashing down with the power of splitting the world.
Holy light rained down like rain, completely covering Gareth's body.
The violent collision between light and darkness triggered a series of explosions, and countless smoke and dust gushed out, covering the long street.
The young man, who was originally in his twenties, now has a head full of white hair and his face is covered with wrinkles.
Fanxing spat out a mouthful of blood, the holy light on his body quickly dimmed, and he fell to the ground powerlessly.
The sword just now almost burned out his life, but the condensed power has already surpassed the mortal world. Even if the giant is also a legend, this sword is enough to kill him.
Unfortunately, the lich ran too fast, and Fanxing was unable to perfectly control the power of this legendary level, and was unable to lock onto the lich with so many tricks.
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the giant's figure was still standing, but the part around his neck had disappeared.
With Fanxing's full-strength attack, he finally cut off the head of this powerful enemy. He believed that the huge power of holy light had completely destroyed his body and purified his soul.
Wait, why is this giant still able to move? !
