In the eyes of the onlookers, Kevin's defense was impenetrable and did not give Roddy any chance at all.
After three seconds, Roddy's "Berserker" Three Axes Style attacks slowed down. Kevin snorted coldly. Although he did not know why this person in front of him dared to fight against a mercenary group alone, he did not hesitate to kill. He narrowed his eyes, and his sword hummed as he swung it at Roddy in a seemingly casual manner.
According to Roddy's previous fighting style, he would definitely block this attack with his two swords. But what was extremely strange was that when Kevin swung his sword, Roddy suddenly used the "Leap" skill and instantly jumped four meters away like a spring!
This movement came without any warning, and Kevin had no time to react. The longsword in his hand inevitably struck empty air. The sword that suddenly emitted a sparkling and translucent light emitted an icy aura, causing the ground below the sword to immediately condense into a large piece of white ice!
Level 4 "Frost Strike": The attack contained the power of frost. After hitting the enemy, the enemy's movement speed and attack speed would be reduced by 15%, and there was a 40% chance to freeze the enemy, and a 4% chance to completely freeze the enemy.
This kind of close-range magic skill was the biggest difference between a "Magic Swordsman" and other physical classes. Their magic skills were not good at long-range combat, but they could use fast and powerful magic attacks to surprise and kill the enemy at mid-range and close-range.
Kevin was extremely confident in his own strength, and this move had been tried and tested many times. There were even many opponents who were stronger than him who were plotted against. But when the sword fell, Roddy, who was four meters away, was unharmed. Such a scene gave Kevin an illusion: Could it be that Roddy had completely seen through his skill?
If Roddy knew what he was thinking, he would certainly generously admit, "You guessed it right."
This was because Kevin's moves were no secret in his eyes. The way he condensed the fireball and the weak flash of the sword when he wielded the sword to launch the 'Frost Strike' had already exposed his tactical intentions in front of Rody's eyes.
Although Roddy's current level was not high, his attributes were not strong, and his equipment was not the best, the main reason why he could live to this day and repeatedly create miracles was because of his "combat experience". All the classes, races, skills, routines, moves, combat characteristics, and even the talent tendencies of each class were all things that Kevin, a "native of the Earth Divided", would never understand. But for a "Magic Swordsman" like Roddy, who had played PVP for four years, this information was like the back of his hand.
After ten seconds of close combat, although Roddy did not have the upper hand, he had clearly determined Kevin's "talent" method and even predicted this "Magic Swordsman"'s follow-up skills!
When the frost and ice formed by "Frost Strike" appeared on the ground, Roddy's expression did not change at all. He narrowed his eyes and focused on Kevin's empty left hand.
"It's time to activate the shield."
He muttered to himself, without the slightest hint of frustration from losing his attack. He stepped to the side with an indifferent expression, then turned and ran to the side.
As soon as Roddy's voice faded, Kevin, who was making a casting gesture, happened to condense a circular "Frost Shield" on his left arm. He did not hear Roddy's words, or else he would have been surprised by his opponent's prediction. At this moment, when Kevin saw that Roddy was avoiding the battle, the doubts in his heart had disappeared. A sinister smile appeared on his face as he immediately chased after Roddy.
The "Frost Shield" could effectively resist the rapid attacks of Roddy's dual swords, but it could only last for 30 seconds. Its weight was also much heavier than a normal "Ironclad Wood" shield. The only advantage was that it had a strong resistance to attacks. It was difficult to destroy this "Frost Shield" within 30 seconds in a battle of the same level.
With it, Kevin could be completely invincible in a one-on-one fight … But after a few steps, Kevin was annoyed to find that his shield was simply "a trap of his own making" — because he realized that Roddy was indeed determined to escape! Kevin, who wanted to chase after Roddy, could not keep up with his opponent because of the heavy shield!
With a shield that weighed more than 40 kilograms on his arm, Kevin could only watch as Roddy ran into the distance. This feeling of wanting to fight but not being able to hit Roddy made him furious. He shouted at the mercenaries who did not dare to approach him before, "Stop him!"
After that, Kevin swung his hand and threw the elemental shield on the ground with a "Clang" sound. He immediately buffed himself with the "Agility of the Wind" effect, then released an "Icicle Spell" at Roddy and quickly chased after him.
"Speed up after the shield. Throw the icicle after the speed up."
Without turning his head, Roddy completely guessed all of Kevin's reactions. He even calculated the fact that the "Icicle Spell" only had a casting time of 2 seconds after being strengthened by his talent!
He carried both his swords and saw two mercenaries rushing towards him. He raised his hand and threw one of his scimitars. Because the movement was too big, the mercenary running in front dodged to the side. But this movement caused him to lose his center of gravity … Roddy took advantage of the situation and used the remaining scimitar in his hand to knock away his opponent's long sword. He raised his elbow and smashed the mercenary's throat. Then, he reached out to grab the mercenary's arm and used the momentum to pull behind him —
"Poof!"
The icicle that flew towards him from behind was blocked by the mercenary's body!
Blood splattered everywhere. Roddy continued to move forward and fought with the next mercenary with his sword. Although Kevin, who was chasing from behind, was angry, he could not help but frown. He had a faint sense of danger, but he firmly believed that his opponent's swordsmanship and strength were not as good as his. As long as he caught up to this guy, he would definitely be able to kill him in less than five moves!
"Nimble Wind" was a wind-type spell. Its effect was to increase movement speed by 50% for 30 seconds. After getting rid of the shield, Kevin instantly shortened the distance between him and Roddy. He lifted his leg and leaped over the mercenary's corpse that was pierced by the "Icicle Spell". His left hand once again condensed another spell …
Roddy, who was in front, had already cut off the head of the mercenary blocking his way. But after this attack, the time limit of "Wild Heart" had also come to an end. Having lost his strength, Rody was even less inclined to fight Kevin head-on. He turned around and ran towards a giant tree more than ten meters away. At the same time, Kevin's' Explosive Impact 'spell was completed, and he raised his arm.
But it was as if Roddy had eyes behind his back. The moment before Kevin's spell was activated, Roddy cast Sakya's "Snake Leap" skill …
Compared to "Leap," the effect of "Snake Leap" was even more exaggerated due to the Snake King's level 45 strength. The previous "Wild Heart" only made Roddy feel that his body was filled with a violent power. But this "Snake Leap" was like a bomb exploding in his body!
"Pa!"
His footsteps left a deep footprint on the ground. Suddenly, Roddy's body shot out like an arrow. He crossed a distance of 12 meters with one step and came directly to the side of the giant tree that required four people to wrap their arms around. He took a wrong step and hid behind the tree!
Everything happened too fast. When Kevin raised his hand to cast the spell, Roddy was still seven meters in front of him. But when the elements were condensed and the shockwave swept forward, Roddy had already disappeared behind the giant tree …
Damn it!
He could no longer stop the casting of "Explosive Impact." He could only watch as another skill missed!
"Explosive Impact" was a fire skill. Its damage range was 1 to 20 meters, and the damage would decrease with time. If Roddy had been hit where he was just now, he would definitely have been blasted into pieces. But this time, the spell only made countless dents in the giant tree with a "boom" and swept up a cloud of dust. It did not hurt Roddy at all …
Kevin passed through the flying leaves and dust without slowing down. He angrily prepared to swing his sword and fight, but then he realized that there was no trace of Roddy behind the tree or even in his entire field of vision …
Skills were used one after another, but Roddy had easily countered all of his attacks. Kevin had used "Fireball", "Frost Strike", "Frost Shield", "Nimble Wind", and "Explosive Impact" from the beginning to the end. Even if it was an enemy with similar strength, they would be seriously injured even if they did not die after being hit by so many skills …
But now, not only was this guy unharmed, he had also disappeared right under his nose!
Kevin continued to rush forward a few steps, his vision sweeping across the gray-brown tree trunks. He looked up and down for a long time, but still could not find anything strange.
The more Kevin thought about it, the more he felt frustrated. It seemed like he was chasing after Roddy, but in fact, he could not take the initiative in the battle! Not only that, Kevin did not notice that in this battle, he had lost two more of his men, and the remaining mercenaries had completely lost the will to fight. He had also unknowingly left the battlefield of the Wood Elves and entered a completely silent and unfamiliar area.
"Nimble Wind" still had 19 seconds left, but Kevin did not know where to look. He had faced all kinds of enemies, and he had also met people who were weak and tried to escape. But after so many battles, he had never met an enemy who could escape in such a "methodical" way.
But just as Kevin was feeling depressed, the sound of wind suddenly came from behind him, and it made his hair stand on end. He twisted his body and raised his sword to block, and with a "ka" sound, the longsword blocked the incoming machete. But being attacked in such a passive way, he had no time to block Roddy's follow-up attack. His abdomen was immediately kicked hard, and he took a few steps back …
This kick did not cause any serious damage to Kevin's body, but to his pride, it was more painful than being kicked in the face!
