Chapter 162 Night Raid (V)



Livia on the other side and Rock on the opposite side naturally also felt the extraordinary fluctuations.

They all glanced away with the corner of their eyes.

Have you provided support yet?

Livia thought as she looked through the gaps in the leaves and saw that Natalia had disappeared on the mountain road.

In that case, I'll just focus on dealing with this guy first.

Livia focused his attention on the man opposite him, and the other man looked at him at the same time, and the two looked at each other.

Bang!

Livia bowed and stomped her body as she rushed towards the man in front of her.

He made a seal with his left hand again, and a wave of fire swept out again, setting the five strange trees blocking the road on fire.

Rock's face changed slightly. This fire magic was too restraining for him.

Who could have known that someone who was thought to be a knight could suddenly cast several fire spells in succession? And even if he was a wizard or sorcerer, then what was the silver light that just gathered and shone on his sword?

That was clearly a knight's method.

Rock's mind was a little confused for a moment, but he quickly recited the spell, driving the remaining vines that had been laid out before to wrap around the black-haired young man who was rushing towards him.

Even though Livia was somewhat helpless about the vines that were spreading again, he did not use the Igni Sign again. The sign consumed too much power. It was obviously impossible to get rid of the opponent in a short time, so he had to save energy as much as possible.

With both hands tightly gripping the steel sword, he used the Bear School's vigorous sword technique to cut off the thick vines that were spreading over. There were not many vines left under the previous Igni seal, and Livia had cleared them after a few strikes.

Rock on the opposite side just took a few steps back and didn't move much.

It’s not that he didn’t want to hide. After all, as a warlock, it would be difficult for him to engage in a head-on battle with a knight without prior arrangements, let alone this monster in front of him who could use magic but looked like a "knight".

However, the silver powder all over his body made it impossible for him to hide like before. Under the faint moonlight, the silver powder on his body kept reflecting, indicating his position.

This was something that his concealment technique could not block. Instead of wasting energy on useless work, he might as well continue to complete the technique he had just started halfway.

Livia didn't know what he was thinking. What he wanted was to kill the extraordinary person in front of him as quickly as possible.

He took a few quick steps to his front and slashed with the steel sword from top to bottom.

Strong attack!

Thicker silver light than before gathered on the sword. Unlike before when it turned into an afterimage and slashed down swiftly, this time it slashed out with a momentum of a mountain collapsing, and it seemed that nothing could stop it.

Rock, who originally thought it was the same sword as before and was planning to rely on defense to complete the spell, couldn't help but change his face when he saw the thick silver light in front of him. He couldn't block this attack!

He decisively gave up his previous plan and quickly withdrew. At the same time, his defensive measures were activated, and a green leaf pattern barrier appeared between him and Livia.

Livia snorted coldly as he looked at the emerald green barrier that suddenly appeared in front of him. He would not suffer the same loss twice. After the test just now, he already knew the opponent's reaction speed and movement speed. There was no need for quick attack to increase the speed. On the contrary, if the previous attack was a powerful attack, it would have directly cut a hole in his chest while smashing the tree.

So this time he chose to attack with all his might.

Ping!

The barrier shattered the moment it was hit, and the silver light on the steel sword dimmed slightly, but it continued to slash towards Rock with undiminished momentum.

Rock's eyes widened. He still underestimated the power of this attack, and it was difficult for him to dodge it completely.

In fact, he was not wrong in his estimation. The actual power was only slightly higher than he expected. It was just that the strong attack and bear-style swordsmanship displayed by Livia, although named bear-style, sounded like an extremely reckless type, but in fact, its ability to find flaws and weak points was no less than that of the cat-style.

After all, the sword techniques and skills of the school are all learned and left by masters. How can a master fight only with brute force? The difference between the Bear School and the Cat School is actually that the former is basically good at suppressing others with force and momentum, forcing out flaws and loopholes, exchanging minor injuries for life or serious injuries, thereby gaining a huge advantage.

The latter is good at dodging and agility. He looks for the opponent's flaws and loopholes while dodging, and then slowly controls the rhythm of the battle with his swift and fierce swordsmanship.

Rock hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and stretched out his left arm, seemingly making a fist as if he was about to fight back.

Although Livia was a little confused, she still chopped it down with all her strength.

Ping!

Almost as Livia expected, a thin layer of green light popped out from the surface of the left arm that was cut, but like the previous emerald green barrier, it shattered the moment it was blocked, but it undoubtedly delayed another half a second.

At this moment, when Rock's left arm was cut and blood splattered, a gray shadow suddenly jumped out from his narrow sleeves.

Elivia's eyesight could only see that it was a long strip.

Is this his trump card?

Out of caution for the unknown gray shadow, Livia leaned back when he cut off his arm, trying to avoid the gray shadow that was attacking his neck.

He didn't want to exchange his life with the other party, especially when he was in an advantageous position.

Even if there was a possibility that he was being deceived, he didn't dare to gamble. After all, if this was a desperate counterattack by the other party, then he would not be able to escape with any good results.

As Livia leaned back, he was even more alert in mobilizing his strength to gather the waves. In the hazy night, a layer of gray hair was faintly visible on his neck.

The gray shadow suddenly sped up again in mid-air, and even Livia's eyesight could not catch up with the gray shadow. The next moment, Livia felt a pain in his left shoulder, and something pierced his skin.

Then it seemed as if something was injected into the body through the wound.

Livia quickly loosened her left hand and pulled off the gray shadow on her shoulder, while mobilizing her strength to slow down the blood circulation in her left shoulder.

Venomous snake?

Livia thought as she looked at the half-meter-long gray snake she had pulled off.

Seeing that he seemed to be about to bite her left hand, Livia swung the steel sword she had just retracted and slashed across his vital point.

Pop.

The piece of the snake's head fell to the ground with a sound.

Opposite him, Rock, with a pale face, gritted his teeth, covering the severed part of his left arm and backing away. As he cut off the gray snake's head, Rock suddenly groaned, his brows tightly furrowed, and he seemed to be in great pain.

That was the snake spirit whose soul was connected to his. If the snake spirit was killed, his spirit would naturally be hurt. But in the situation just now, he had no choice but to do so, otherwise he might die.

"However, you won't be able to survive long under the venom of the Heart-Eating Snake!"

Rock muttered with grim expression, gritting his teeth.

Heart-eating snake?

Livia naturally heard his words, and looked at the snake corpse and snake head thrown on the ground with a serious expression.
