A high moon hangs alone in the night sky, with a few stars weakly guarding beside it. The bright moonlight shines on the foggy streets.

Suddenly, the sound of weapons clashing was heard on the quiet street, and a silver light flashed, dispelling the darkness in the street.

In the darkness where the silver light flashed, a figure retreated awkwardly from the shadows.

The black shadow appeared in embarrassment and took two steps back, looking at the man with the sword in front of him with some fear. He actually lost to this young-looking boy in front of him in the confrontation just now.

Seeing Livia swinging her sword again, he took out a sachet from his pocket with some heartache.

brush!

The black shadow threw a handful of fine, gray powder onto himself.

Then he made a strange gesture, and the next moment the black mist on his body fluctuated, and instantly condensed into a black armor on his body. Then he drew out a long sword condensed by the black mist from the black mist on his side and slashed forward at Livia.

Livia looked at the armor that suddenly appeared on the black shadow in front of her, and before she could hit the black mist sword, she suddenly kicked the ground and retreated.

After retreating to a few meters away from the black shadow, Livia stopped and looked at the black shadow cautiously. Although he didn't know what the black armor that suddenly appeared on the black shadow was, he thought it must be a trump card or something.

The shadow looked at Livia who suddenly retreated, feeling a little proud, and said with gritted teeth: "Why did you retreat suddenly? Weren't you chasing me happily just now?"

The corners of Livia's mouth twitched, probably because his own power was very effective in restraining this kind of undead, evil power. So every time the black shadow attacked him from the shadows, as soon as he used his skills, the black shadow was beaten and fled. In the end, he even had to chase the black shadow.

Seeing that Livia didn't speak, the black shadow wrapped black mist around his legs and attacked Livia.

whoosh!

The black shadow, wearing armor, was even faster than before. The next moment, he arrived in front of Livia. A faint black light emanated from the black mist sword. The black shadow stabbed forward with the black mist sword in his hand.

The black mist wrapped around the sword began to spin rapidly, forming a small whirlwind. Wherever it passed, the air was sucked into the spinning black mist sword.

Faced with this strange attack, Livia's eyes were solemn. She did not choose to confront it head-on, but moved to the right to avoid the attack.

The dark shadow's face, shrouded in a pitch-black helmet, became hideous.

The black mist sword in his hand slightly tilted to the side and continued to slash towards Livia.

clang!

Seeing that the distance was too close, Livia had no choice but to block with his sword. Suddenly, a huge force and a strange rotational force came from the sword, which knocked him back. He retreated several meters before the force from the sword was relieved and he stopped retreating.

Livia steadied her trembling hands, looked warily at the dark figure in black armor opposite her, and analyzed it quickly.

The speed is 30% faster than before, and the strength has at least increased by a level. The black mist blade condensed on the short blade should have a similar tearing ability, but it is not clear what the defensive power of the armor is, and whether it has any other functions.

Before he could think about it, the black shadow swung the black mist sword at him again.

…

The black mist sword slashed through the air in front of him, and looking at Livia who dodged again, the black shadow angrily cursed: "Is all you can do is hide and dodge!

Where is the momentum that chased me just now? "

Livia looked at the somewhat angry black shadow expressionlessly. Although she was keeping a distance with her feet, she fought back mercilessly: "I'm not stupid. I know I can't beat you, but I still have to fight you head-on.

Besides, you have been hiding in the shadows before, how can you have the nerve to say anything to me?"

The black shadow became angry upon hearing this, and without further ado, he ran towards him with the sword in hand, even faster than before.

As the black light flashed, the black mist sword became faster and faster, constantly slashing towards Livia.

However, Livia narrowly avoided the shadow's attack every time.

The black shadow watched as his attacks fell just a little short each time, thinking about the information about his own jet-black armor, and began to get anxious.

His own jet-black armor is made of a rare material combined with magic. It can certainly provide the user with a powerful strength bonus and has no obvious weaknesses. However, its biggest weakness, like all similar magic, is that it is time-limited.

Seeing that the black armor could only last less and less time, and that he had not caused any harm to him and was even playing tricks on him, the black shadow gritted his teeth and made up his mind to give it a try.

…

In a flash, the black shadow swung out a dozen swords. Black mist surged around, leaving a sword mark on the ground from time to time.

As time passed, the dark color of the black shadow's armor began to fade slowly, and his movements began to slow down.

Livia dodged the sword again and frowned as she looked at the shadow whose movements had obviously slowed down. "Is there a time limit?"

He judged, looking at the fading armor.

At this moment, the black shadow, perhaps due to the reduced effect of the armor, suddenly stumbled and tilted his body to one side.

Looking at the black shadow with obvious flaws, Livia tensed up and instinctively wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to attack, but the next moment he reacted and forcibly suppressed the urge to attack and took a few steps back.

"In the previous battle, even when his strength was restrained, he didn't show any obvious flaws. How could he show such a big flaw just because the armor's duration is about to end? Isn't this obviously luring me forward?"

Livia's thoughts flashed through her mind, and she became alert to the black shadow who was half-fallen on the ground again with one hand supporting the ground, revealing a fatal flaw.

After a while, the black shadow, who had revealed several flaws, saw that Livia not only did not fall for it, but instead took advantage of his flaws to move further away from him. He stood up straight with some anger and no longer deliberately revealed his flaws.

"Damn it, he's just a young boy, but how come he doesn't have any drive at all? He's almost like those old veterans."

"But no matter how careful you are, you can't imagine what will happen next. The wizard's methods are not limited to this."

The black shadow showed a strange smile on his face under the helmet.

Livia looked at the black shadow who suddenly stood up and stood there in a daze. She didn't understand what he was doing, but it was best to be cautious in case he used any special means.

The black shadow suddenly moved, rushing towards Livia at the fastest speed ever shown. Livia raised the steel sword in his hand and looked at the rushing black shadow vigilantly.

Just as the black shadow rushed in front of him and swung the sword, he was about to retreat, but suddenly the armor on the black shadow exploded and black armor fragments flew towards him.

Livia was startled by the sudden explosion of the armor, but she reacted quickly the next moment. She stepped back and swung her steel sword quickly to knock away the flying fragments.

Just as he shot down all the flying debris, he saw the face of the black shadow after the helmet disappeared.

The face under the black hood was smiling strangely, revealing a look of conspiracy succeeding.

Just when Livia realized something was wrong, a chill ran through her heart, and she didn't know when she had stepped on the sword mark left by the black shadow.

In an instant, a large amount of black mist spurted out from the sword marks under his feet, covering Livia.
