501. Killing Wu Ji
The scenery of the Royal Rose Manor is indeed very beautiful, no matter in any way, it is indeed completely in line with the discerning eyes of the nobles of the royal capital, even if even if the elves come, they will definitely not find any fault.
At this time, Sean was in a room on the third floor, looking out of the window of the manor.
Standing here, he could admire a sea of roses - a sea of gorgeous red roses, white roses, and black roses exuding an indescribable charm. In particular, the red roses are planted in a layout that looks like a blooming rose, and its rhizome is composed of black roses, and the background is a field of pure white white roses, which looks particularly charming.
But unfortunately, Sean is really not in the mood to enjoy these beautiful scenery. He just rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly, and the look on his face was a little ugly.
His communication with Asuna and Vivien did not go well: Sean could not convince Asuna to give up her support for Her Royal Highness Princess Vercis; And Asuna can't get Sean to support her. In fact, both Sean and Asuna know very well to each other that as long as Asuna throws out her past friendship, then Sean will definitely agree to Asuna's request unconditionally, but Asuna doesn't like this.
Therefore, the final negotiation can only be regarded as a simple family affair, and the matter will not be mentioned again.
Such an atmosphere naturally cannot be regarded as friendly and harmonious.
The door to the room was gently pushed open.
Although the sound was negligible - at least Shaun didn't hear it, whether it was the sound of the door opening or footsteps - that didn't stop Shaun from knowing who was coming in. He didn't even look back before he spoke: "Looks like you're in a good mood." I can feel your joy that is about to infect me with you, but ......"
Sean sniffed. Then he turned to Alexis, who was smiling: "This bloody gas is really strong, it looks like it killed a lot of people?" ”
"Kill some Darkwalkers." Alexis walked over to the table. Then he poured himself a full glass of water and drank it all, "...... At least everyone in this manor can get a good night's sleep tonight. But it's a pity that I still don't know who is behind the scenes, otherwise we can go directly to the door and solve everything. ”
"I think so, too, the guys behind the scenes are much more cautious than we thought." Sean smiled helplessly, then sighed, "But it's understandable that the killer is a dark walker. It's no wonder that the killers find their way into the manor so smoothly every time, and the average person really can't guard against these guys, at least when it comes to infiltrating them, they are better at them than the Shadow Assassins and the like. …… However, I thought you were up against a similar opponent......"
"I did meet an opponent of equal strength." Alexis said with a smile, looking very satisfied, "A little guy with good strength, let me have a lot of fun." …… Stronger than the swordsmen I've ever encountered in the Green Forest Plane. ”
Sean didn't know anything like the Green Forest Plane, maybe it was some plane that Alexis had been to before he was locked up in that "cage world". However, judging by the name of the plane and the name of the Absolute Sword Killer mentioned by Alexis, it should be a plane full of elves. I just don't know what those elf breeds are, but literally, they should be forest elves.
As for the Sword Killer, this name may not be known to many people in the outside world. But in the elven clan, it is definitely a well-known rank.
The elves' talent in archery and magic is very amazing, and relatively speaking, the sword skills are slightly inferior. It's just that this inferiority is only relatively speaking, in fact, it is still relatively strong compared to human beings. In particular, the sword dancers of the elven clan are the best in swordsmanship. Sean's partner who had fooled him before. Vigna. Breaking the wind is a genius in terms of sword dancers.
But it's well known. The sword dancers are all masters of skill warfare, but on the contrary, they are slightly deficient in strength, endurance, etc. Therefore, in order to make up for the shortcomings in this aspect, the elven sword dancer will turn to practice and study hard in this area after stepping into the holy realm, if he can step into the legendary realm because of this, then the shortcomings in all aspects of the body will be made up, so as to obtain a strong balanced combat power, and even no longer limited to the use of short swords or light swords, and can even wield two heavy swords.
Such a sword dancer will be called a sword dancer - to put it bluntly, it is a special advanced class.
However, even if it is an ordinary sword master, it is definitely a standard twelfth-order legendary class.
Alexis said that the one she had encountered was stronger than the one she had encountered before, so how many steps did it have to be? Thirteenth or Fourteenth?
Sean didn't believe that he would be a legendary peak powerhouse of the fifteenth order.
Suddenly three legendary powerhouses popped up in the Kingdom of Lane - in fact, strictly speaking, there were only two, Elizabeth was a follower of Asuna, and according to the theory of luck, she relied on the luck of the Duchy of Garrod - such a level was enough to make the Kingdom of Lane one of the top super-first-class kingdoms. After all, after the Sacred Domain powerhouse becomes a member of the high-end combat power of this world, it is equivalent to entering this circle, so they will deal with it more frequently, but the legendary powerhouse is really not a cabbage on the rotten street - maybe only those top-level circles of the Seven Great Empires can see the grand scene of several people appearing together at the same time.
But if you can meet a person of the level of a legendary peak or even a super strong person just by strolling around, then unless there is a super strong person making trouble in the Seven Great Empires, or accidentally entering some special forbidden area - such as the Forest of Sighs that has now been occupied by Ryker, the outer land ruled by elves and orc dwarves, and the Kuroshio jungle that was once visited by Bes, etc.
"I think that Sword Killer should be honored to die if he can hear your comment." Sean thought about it, but still made a simple evaluation.
"I think I should correct you two wrongs." Alexis tilted her head and thought for a moment before speaking, "First. This is a female elf, and she is very young. It shouldn't be more than two hundred years old, in terms of the age and strength of the elf race. It's a genius! …… Second, she's not dead yet. ”
Compared to the age of eighty years old for the elves, two hundred years old is probably less than thirty years old. Already a legendary powerhouse at this age, this female elf can definitely be called a genius among geniuses in the elven clan - compared to Vinya. Breaking the wind, that is definitely a potential genius several levels higher.
"Not dead?" Compared to the first mistake that was corrected, the second was where Sean was really shocked, "Is there anyone who can escape from you?" Could it be that this is a super strong person!? ”
"Of course not." Alexis shook his head, "Her strength is probably the level of the thirteenth-order critical point, if you work harder or show your strength completely." It should be possible to reach the level of the fourteenth order. …… When fighting with me, I could tell that she should still have a skill at the bottom of the box that she hadn't performed, so she probably only exerted a combat power close to the fourteenth order, but compared to the one in the manor and the one in the palace, this female elf could indeed ignore them. …… Of course, I mean one-on-one, if the two of them join forces, the female elf will have to protect herself. ”
"Such a person...... Can I escape from your hands? Sean couldn't believe it, he even doubted it. Is Alexis an imposter summoned by himself, "You're not ......"
"Of course I didn't give it my all." Alexis didn't know what Sean was thinking, and said bluntly, "Hmm...... It's not so much that I'm not giving it my all. It's better that I just used a single sword technique, not even strength. ”
"Wait...... Single swordsmanship? Strength? What are these? Sean looked puzzled.
In Sean's impression, there are a total of four strengths of this killer Wu Ji. They are swordsmanship, spearmanship, physical arts, and killing fields. Although these introductions are very general, even a little confusing. But it's still clear at a glance, after all, Alexis's weapon is a sword-edged spear and two slashing blades. But what the hell is this single swordsmanship and strength?
Alexis patted the two slashing blades beside him. Then he said with a natural face: "Single swordsmanship, of course, means that I only use one sword!" Does this need to be asked? What's in your brain? Mud? ”
Sean glanced at the two slashing blades hanging from Alexis' waist, although they looked exactly the same, but there were still slight differences in details, the most obvious of which was that the hilts of the two slashing blades were black and white.
"Then when you use two swords, is it called dual swordsmanship?" Sean asked.
"Of course." Alexis nodded proudly, and the look looked like it was saying, finally admitting that Sean was slightly more intelligent.
And Sean, naturally, is a facial twitch: what a casual way to choose a name.
However, under Alexis's simple explanation and description, Sean finally knew why the strengths introduced on Alexis' list were so simple and crisp. Of course, it is natural to know why Alexis is called a forbidden existence.
The reason is simple.
In terms of swordsmanship, spearmanship, and physical skills, Alexis has completely reached the pinnacle level, and basically as long as the martial arts related to these three specialties, she can play beyond the limit. Although it can't be compared to a world-class monster like Beth in terms of domain height, the so-called Sword Saint, Sword Emperor and the like don't want to surpass Alexis in terms of swordsmanship.
As for the other two areas, the same is true.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that Alexis's strength performance level also has a great speciality.
Under normal circumstances, even if she didn't use any weapons, Alexis still had the combat power of a twelfth-order legendary powerhouse, or she had already reached the level of a legendary powerhouse just by her physical strength. Basically, as long as it is an ordinary legendary powerhouse, Alexis can even directly pinch and explode the opponent without even using a weapon.
And after using the strength - which is actually the fighting energy of the Miracle Continent - will increase Alexis's strength by a large order in an all-round way, which is almost equivalent to the combat power close to the peak of the thirteenth order. In this state, Sean is simply understood as a fighting queen mode.
If it is after adding a single sword, Alexis has not significantly improved his strength in terms of physical strength and speed. However, in terms of attack power, defense power, and martial arts, that is, combat skills, and other aspects of combat effectiveness, they will be greatly improved again. It is almost at the level of the fourteenth order critical point. Sean refers to Alexis in this state as Takeki mode, although the level of strength in this mode has not really reached the level of the peak of the legend. But even in the face of the peak of the legend, there will be no inferiority.
And if the two swordsmanship are combined, then Alexis can reach the level of a super strong or even above. Because if you use dual swords, Alexis's combat tactics, combat skills, lethality, defense ability, etc. will be greatly improved, basically no different from playing Wushuang, even ordinary sixteenth-order super powerhouses are difficult to block Alexis in this state, so Sean defined Alexis in this state as a killing mode.
However, it is very subtle that Alexis can not stimulate the strength in his body when he uses a single sword technique. In this case, it is equivalent to Alexis only choosing to strengthen his combat ability, and not comprehensively improving his ability. The strength exerted is similar to that of the Dou Ji mode, that is, it is only at the level of the peak of the thirteenth order - Sean calls this the Sword Ji mode for his own understanding.
But on the contrary, if he wants to perform dual sword skills, then Alexis must activate the latent power in his body and let himself directly enter the killing mode. According to herself, it seems that the dual sword technique is particularly physically demanding, and many combat skills and martial arts require the aid of strength to be able to perform, or to put it more colloquially, only in this way can it be lethal.
So. From the twelfth to the sixteenth order of the four stages of strength changes, Alexis has a total of five modes, including normal mode, fighting queen mode, sword queen mode, martial queen mode, and killing mode. This also allows Alexis to have different fighting styles and skills against different opponents, so that the huge difference in combat power will make the fight boring - according to Alexis herself, it is a "way of playing" that she has spent a long time figuring out. It is also the secret of Alexis's invincibility at the same level.
However, in Sean's own opinion, this is purely an excuse for Alexis to make himself more fun when he fights against the strong. Like tonight, in the face of the female elf. Alexis can obviously torture and kill her opponent, but she fights in the sword queen mode. I fully enjoyed the fun of this battle - but even if it was only in the sword mode, Alexis completely suppressed the opponent with absolute strength.
As for why they didn't kill each other. It's only because the opponent didn't exert all his strength, and Alexis really wanted to fight the opponent with all his strength, so his subordinates showed mercy to the other party - judging from Alexis's description, it took her a total of almost three minutes to force the opponent to flee, and judging from the fact that she was indeed merciful.
Of course, Alexis's true strength is naturally more than that.
Don't forget that she also has a sword-edged gun.
Only when using a sword-edged spear can Alexis be truly called a slaying warrior. And the previous modes were just Alexis playing a game called "Fight the Strong". Of course, if Alexis can be allowed to use the blade of the sword, then this at least proves that the enemy's strength is at least above the seventeenth order, and may even be at the level of the eighteenth and nineteenth orders.
Based on Sean's understanding of the world of miracles, it is estimated that except for those antique-level old monsters of the Seven Great Empires, or world-class monsters such as Oscar who caused the battle of fate before, I am afraid that no one will be able to make Alexis use a sword blade gun. And after knowing this, Sean suddenly felt a little resentful of Alexis who put away his sword and gun so obediently in the Duchy of Knighthood of Robin.
At that time, he thought that Alexis was obedient, but he didn't expect that after she quickly understood the strength realm structure of this world, she felt that "killing chickens with a knife".
"Ah, by the way......" Alexis, who was humming an unknown tune, was obviously in a very good mood, and suddenly turned to Sean and said, "The female elf brought us a 'kindness' before leaving. It seems that a man named Arlan has asked you to look for him in the clubhouse tomorrow afternoon. …… Well, I think about it, what's the name of the clubhouse. ”
"Rosaun Hall?"
"Seems to be the name." Alexis thought for a moment, then nodded.
……
Alexis said it lightly. And he seemed very happy - happy that he had found a "toy".
But in fact, the female elf named Fanny was hurt. But it wasn't as easy as Alexis said.
The openwork light armor she was wearing - although it didn't look like it was very defensive, it was actually a real set of epic equipment. Although the defense ability has been reduced to the level of quasi-legend for the sake of beauty, it still has a strong defense ability - it has been completely shattered. It no longer had that emerald green luster, but instead looked like a fake faded jadeite, and it was covered with countless cracks, almost as long as he walked with a little force, a lot of armor fragments would fall off it.
If it's just the loss of a set of armor, it's nothing.
However, Fanny's face was a little frighteningly pale, and it was obvious that she had suffered quite serious internal injuries. In particular, the hands holding the sword are trembling all the time, and even many times it is necessary to use the two knight swords in their hands to be able to support their bodies without falling. It's just a will that has always kept Fanny from fainting, and she is still trying to walk towards the mansion where Arlan is.
One can imagine how shocked Arlan was when he saw Fanny with this appearance.
Even, with a bit of self-blame.
"Your Highness, don't worry." Looking at Arlan's panic, Fanny tried to squeeze a smile on her face, but she didn't know it. In this case, her laughter is even more ugly than crying, "I just suffered a little concussion, so it looks more serious, but in fact it is not as serious as I imagined." Please rest assured, Your Highness. All I need to do is drink the dew of life and rest for two days. ”
"It's all injured like this, how can it not be serious!" Arlan looked furious. But soon he became deeply remorseful, "It's all my fault." If I hadn't let you go, nothing like this would have happened. I ......"
"It's none of Your Highness's business. I was too careless. Fanny shook her head, and then said, "At first, I didn't go all out, I wanted to focus on temptation, but I didn't expect the other party's physical strength to be stronger than I imagined, so I suffered a loss." Later, when I tried to go all out, the rhythm was completely controlled by the opponent, so I had to defend passively...... I suspect that the other party is not human at all. ”
"Not human?" Arlan's face changed slightly, "What's that?" ”
"I don't know, but it's not orcs or elves or dwarves. It could be a half-orc, or a shapeshifting monster. Fanny pondered for a moment before speaking her guess, "Her physical fitness is terrifyingly good, she is completely beyond the limits of human beings, in fact, if it weren't for her lack of mastery of Dou Qi power, I probably wouldn't be her opponent." ”
"You mean...... She didn't master the power of Dou Qi, she was already ...... A legendary powerhouse? Arlan looked surprised.
"That's why I think that the other party is not a human, but may be some kind of incarnate demonic beast. Another factor that led me to make this judgment was that the killing aura on the other side was so heavy that it almost turned into substance, and I had never seen it in any human or intelligent race. Fanny said in a deep voice, though her face was pale, but also a little angry, "And in the process of fighting me, she only used a one-handed sword from beginning to end, although I must admit that her swordsmanship is very sharp, but the more she does, the more suspicious it becomes." …… Also, I don't think the other party is going all out. ”
"Didn't go all out!?" Arlan looked incredulous, "You've already reached the peak of the thirteenth order!" It's only one step away from reaching the fourteenth order......"
"I just fell in the heat of the moment, and if I had given it my all at the beginning, I didn't think I would have been suppressed." Fanny replied, "In terms of swordsmanship, I must admit that the other party is better than me, but she has not mastered the fighting spirit, and only fights me with her physical fitness, and if I hadn't been carelessly suppressed at first, she would not have had a chance to shock me." And...... In the course of the confrontation, I also did not use the Falling Star Sword Technique. ”
Prince Arlan's face showed a very solemn expression: "You said that the other party did not exert all her strength, so if she exerts her full strength, can it mean that she has the same strength as you?" ”
"I don't think so." Fanny shook her head slightly, before she continued, "She wears two slashing blades on her body, and she only has one unsheathed when she fights me, but I am also a dual sword martial artist, so I know very well that the difference between dual swords and single swords is not very big, even if she uses both swords, at best, it is at the level of the peak or critical point of the thirteenth order." And if I use the Falling Star Sword Technique, my combat power can reach the fourteenth order. ”
"I thought that you had the strength of the fourteenth order, which was enough to suppress Elizabeth and Lauren, but now it seems that our plans will have to make some adjustments." Arlan frowned, his face looking very ugly, "No matter what, there's no way I'm going to let you take the risk. …… Grand Duke Sean, we must win it, even if we can't win the other party to our side, we can't put him on our hostile side. ”
This time, Fanny didn't say anything. She wasn't good at politics and other things, she only knew that she was a sharp blade in Arlan's hands, as long as she followed Arlan's orders to solve those roadblocks. As for the other problems, she couldn't think about them, and she couldn't come up with any solutions, so she never bothered about them.
Of course, there was one more thing she hadn't told Arlan.
It was the night fight, and apart from the initial carelessness, the opponent had already given her plenty of time to react in the second encounter. She was completely suppressed in the real sword encounter, especially Alexis's fast sword that shone like a star, which almost broke her protective qi - but even so, she still didn't think Alexis was so terrible, because she couldn't fight.
In the Miracle Continent, judging whether a strong person's martial arts skills are strong enough and terrifying depends largely on the quality and quantity of Dou Qi.
A strong person, even if he can reach the legendary level with his physical fitness, but if he can't master the fighting spirit, he will have this serious defect in terms of endurance combat ability and lethality. And these flaws are enough to make them the ultimate losers in the high-end battle - even if they can gain the upper hand at the beginning, it is meaningless, because as long as they endure the initial suppression, and wait for the opponent to show fatigue, it is the time to reverse the victory.
So even though Alexis surprised Fanny with his swordsmanship tonight, it still didn't make her feel fear or despair.
As everyone knows, the reason why Alexis is called a forbidden existence, so that her reputation resounded throughout the outer regions and voids, is because she constantly strengthens her own combat power little by little in the process of fighting with her opponent, so as to completely defeat the opponent's mental defense and will, and after making the opponent fully feel the deepest despair and fear, she will solve the opponent with one blow.
And almost all the people who have fought against Alexis, even if they are not killed by her, will not be able to raise any faith in fighting after the battle is over.
This is the real killing of Wu Ji! (To be continued......)
