The two figures separated in an instant, and quickly flew upside down to the left and right

Rhodes held the long sword in his hand, and his originally calm face was already a little panting at the moment. Although he was not injured, it does not mean that the fight was easy. It's not just that you're covered in mud and blood, everyone has their own different ways of fighting, and for a swordsman like Rhodes who relies on high-speed movement to fight, as long as he is injured by the enemy, he has already stepped into the abyss of defeat.

It's tough.

Looking at the rune guard in front of him, Rhodes gritted his teeth, not summoning elves was really a hard wound for his current self. After all, an advanced swordsman and an advanced summoned swordsman are two completely different concepts. If Rhodes was a full-time swordsman, he would have blown the other party into slag by just relying on his strength. It's a pity that as a summoning swordsman, his combat power is at least one-third lower than that of a real swordsman of the same level, and now there is no particularly high proficiency sword skill in Rhode's hands, which is also a very troublesome thing for Rhodes.

On the other hand, the rune guard seems to have changed as well, but Rhodes knows that it is because of the special physical attributes of the other party, unlike the previous giant of light, the rune guard in front of him seems to be a complete magical existence rather than a soul body, and it can be seen from the fact that the soul blade of the deceased did not cause any damage to the enemy in front of him, which is probably a manipulated magic puppet.

Merely............ What's next?

Rhodes is not a robot after all, and he can't stick to it like the other party. In addition, Rod's fighting style is to be strong at the beginning, relying on abundant physical strength to perform high-speed attacks, in order to destroy the enemy as quickly as possible in the shortest possible time. But once the battle is prolonged and consumed too much, it will definitely not be a good thing for Rod.

Thinking of this, Rhodes narrowed his eyes once again and carefully examined the rune guard in front of him. From the series of encounters just now, Rhodes had already figured out that this rune guarded out of the magic energy ball in the center of his chest, and only the rune line that looked like a bandage was real. There are no entities underneath that. That is to say, if you want to defeat the rune guard, then you must destroy its central core, but this is not easy Rhodes has tried it once just now, but he has not been able to avoid the defense of the rune guard, in any case, the other party only has one key point to protect, and he must always pay careful attention to the surroundings, and the gap between the two sides is too big

In this way, opportunism is not the only option left, but to attack head-on.

Thinking of this, Rhodes lowered his head again, lowered his eyes and stared at the bright red sword in his hand. He didn't hesitate, because there was no other way at the moment, and it would be detrimental to him if he continued to delay——— so he could only take advantage of the fact that his current strength was still sufficient.

Thinking of this, Rhodes didn't say anything, he just raised his long sword and pointed at the rune guard in front of him.

The shadows reopen.

In just an instant, Rod's figure appeared on the side of the rune guard, and he held the sword in his right hand and stabbed it directly into the rune guard's chest.

But the rune guard did not react to Rod's blow, instead, it suddenly turned around, turned its back to Rod, and at the same time raised its hands in front of its chest, accompanied by a flash of fire, Rod who originally appeared on the side of the rune guard suddenly disappeared, replaced by a "Rod" who jumped from the side of the rune guard reappeared, but judging from his movements, this attack seemed to be over.

This is exactly the special effect of the Shadows——— Afterimage Lag.

Reaching the level of agility of the Dark Elves and the bonus of the Dark Dance Sword Technique, the user can't reach the level of a mage who can teleport in one second, but it's not about the same. Just like Rhodes, when they exert their full strength, almost no one can see their figure and movement. …,

However, the special skill of afterimage lag is very insidious, and on the surface, this skill is a bit similar to the afterimage after the card machine in the online game. The player looks at the character here, but it is not here. And it's the same with this skill. The afterimage that flashes is about two to three seconds slower than the user's actual speed, which means that when you see the other person appear in front of you and are about to raise the knife, maybe they have already circled behind you and are about to scoop up the blood·········

The trick of the Shadow is not without viciousness, as long as it is a person who sees with his eyes, whether he wants it or not, his brain will process the information reflected by his eyes. Therefore, it is easy to be deceived, even those who know this, even if they are mentally prepared, the contradiction between the brain's sanity and the mirror image of the eye is enough to make them subconsciously hesitate.

And in the heat of battle, such hesitation is fatal even for a moment.

But the Rune Guard obviously doesn't eat this set, it is a magical creature after all, and it doesn't look at it with its eyes, so the powerful effect of the Phantom Vientiane is the same for the Rune Guard, and it is simply for the blind to see. But even so, Rod still didn't give up this skill, even if the afterimage lag can't deceive the rune guard, but the speed bonus is real, even if the rune guard doesn't use eyes, but its movements are still flawed and flawed, as long as the speed is fast enough and the observation is concentrated enough, then there is still a chance to get it.

When the afterimage showed Rhodes leaping backwards, Rhodes himself had already made a circle and came behind the rune guards again.

He had used this trick several times before, but the rune guards saw through his movements every time, forcing Rhodes to return in vain, and this time, would Rhodes still be able to succeed?

"Huh!"

Sure enough, as Rod expected, at the same time as he stepped forward, the rune guard suddenly turned around like an unpredictable prophet and crossed in front of him again.

This time, though, Rhodes wasn't attacking in search of loopholes.

I saw that Rhodes was holding the sword in his right hand, and his left hand stretched out and swiped it on the sword body, and with the blood splashing, the original bright red sword body immediately became much more dazzling at this moment.

"Bell!!"

The Crimson Cry intersected with the Rune Guard's hands again, but this time, Rod's weapon did not slide away like before, on the contrary, the sharp blade carried a dazzling bright light and cut into the Rune Guard's arm, and then saw dozens of rune lines break in response, and at this time, half of the Rune Guard's arm also began to break rapidly.

As a magic-driven existence, the Rune Guard is naturally very sensitive to the fluctuations of magic, although Rhodes is also scooping a magic weapon in his hand, but the flaw of Scarlet Cry is that it must be activated through blood, otherwise it is no different from ordinary weapons, which is also the reason why Rhodes attacked several times before for a long time to no avail. But now, the magic fluctuations generated by the longsword activated by the blood immediately countered the mana of the rune guards, which is why Rod's attack was not bounced off again.

But even so, with the current ability of Crimson Cry, there is still no way to deal with the rune guards.

But Rhodes was clearly prepared.

This surprise attack made the rune guard a little dazed, after all, it was just a magical doll-like existence, and it was completely impossible to expect it to have the advanced combat intelligence of a human. Because of this, the rune guard, who had been reacting very quickly before, was stagnant this time.

Rod took advantage of this opportunity to withdraw his sword with his backhand, and then smeared the sharp blade on his left hand again. Sharp pain came from the palm of his left hand, and Rod gritted his teeth, forcing himself not to pay attention, and then stabbed out again.

This time the rune guards finally did not resist Rod's attack again, the characteristics of the scarlet cry are that the more blood absorbed, the sharper it becomes, and Rod's two "bloodletting" at any cost immediately increased the power of the long sword in his hand several times, in the face of the rune guard's defense again, the blood-stained long sword easily pierced the guard of the rune line and went straight into the body.

The magic fluctuations of the Scarlet Cry immediately disturbed the flow of magic in the rune guard's body, and soon, the rune guard's body began to tremble uncontrollably, its limbs trembled wildly, and the lines that originally wrapped the body of the rune guard began to split and break at this moment, and the magic power of blood penetrated deep into the rune guard's body, completely disrupting the originally balanced flow of magic in the rune guard's body like a impurity.

Now is the time!

Seeing the situation of the rune guard in front of him, Rod's eyes lit up, and then he gritted his teeth again, and pressed his left hand the blade of the sword, at the same time, Rod threw the sword down hard, only to see that a huge gap appeared in the rune guard's body in an instant, and the blue magic shone in it, and a little bit of light dust flew out along Rod's sword body, floating in the sky, which looked quite beautiful.

But Rhodes didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful scene, and as the rune guards lost their balance, he finally caught the gap that the other party exposed.

Wrath of Judgment!

At the tip of the sword, the dazzling soul light condensed into a clump, and then, the bright red long sword slashed straight down again, this time the rune guard finally had no time to stop it, it raised its remaining hands in vain, but soon, the bright red light flashed from above, and then went deep into the body of the rune guard.

And at this moment, the amount of strength that had been prepared for a long time finally exploded.

"Boom!!"

The shining meteor exploded and scattered in the rune guard's body, like a huge fist hammering down from it, and in the blink of an eye, the rune guard was completely shattered, and scattered line rags flew in the air, mixed with bits of light and dust, and quickly disappeared into the air.

And it was only at this time that Rod stopped, he gasped for breath, looked at the rune guards in front of him who were already broken, and there was not even a slag left, and let out a sigh of relief.

This trouble has finally been settled.
