The small round shield and longsword simultaneously moved to block. Six of the spears were blocked by the small round shield, while three were deflected by the longsword. Relying on his movement technique, he avoided the five spears from the leftmost side, with only two of them hitting their mark. The formidable might of Kalam's ice crystal rune spear couldn't be underestimated. However, it wasn't enough to deal with Cecil's defense. All it did was cause Cecil's body to tremble slightly, leaving behind some white ice stains on his legs.
Cecil's charge was only slightly affected by the perfect sixteen point Indiscriminate Matrix attack.
But what followed was a torrential hurricane of bullets.
It was either a barrage of bullets, a surprise attack from a single gun, a control node, or even a crisscrossing barrier that sealed off Cecil's path of advance.
Scarlet's marksmanship was displayed incisively and vividly at this moment. All sorts of attacks flowed out like floating clouds and flowing water. Most of them were either dodged or blocked by Cecil. But for every seven or eight bullets, there would always be one that would hit Cecil's body. Although it didn't cause much damage, it would always leave a few ice stains on his body. It made Cecil look as if his body was covered in ice.
Energy bullets that contained ice attribute special abilities definitely had a slowing effect. However, this effect didn't appear on Cecil's body at all. His physical strength and soul power were too strong. At the very least, they surpassed Scarlet by a level.
His speed was still exceptional. The dozen or so ice stains that hit his body were just like tickles. They weren't even able to slow down a tenth of his speed. In the blink of an eye, he had closed the distance between him and Scarlet to around forty meters. Then, his figure flashed!
Bandy's Folding Dash! This was a very common dash technique used by soldiers. It was enough to instantly cross a distance of over ten meters. In the hands of an expert like Cecil, it wasn't a problem for him to cross forty meters.
At this moment, another shot landed. It was a very ordinary shot, just like the bullets that had only left some ice stains on Cecil's body. It didn't have any explosive power, nor did it have any special effects. However, it had struck the same spot where the ice stains had overlapped.
This was different from the point where All-Mouthy King had destroyed Anlor. After all, Scarlet wasn't All-Mouthy King, and Cecil wasn't someone Anlor could compare to.
With only two shots overlapping, it was unable to reach the level of unconsciously disintegrating the opponent's defense. However, the effects of his special ability shone brilliantly, forcibly expanding the small ice stain into a palm-sized block of ice, multiplying the effect of slowing the opponent's movements!
Cecil's movements slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye. His dash had been interrupted, and he wasn't able to use it.
The slow effect had taken effect!
The detailed application of the Frost Arcana!
Her advance had failed, and the accelerated tempo immediately returned to the seesaw like equilibrium. While maintaining her suppressive firepower, Scarlet calmly took advantage of this opportunity to increase the distance between the two of them, once again returning to the safe zone of 50 metres between them.
At the same time, another Ice Stain attack overlapped, and the slowing effect was even more severe.
In the first round of exchange, Cecil was unexpectedly at a disadvantage. Furthermore, what followed was an all-around suppression!
Scarlet's movement speed couldn't be considered fast, but her positioning was simply impeccable. Compared to Simon's instinctive positioning, Scarlet's positioning was much more precise, clear-cut, and purposeful.
Modern combat soldiers relied more on computer-like precision calculations. This was especially true when it came to long-range positioning and attacks. The tolerable error was usually down to the decimal point. Without an extraordinary brain and outstanding theoretical knowledge, it was extremely difficult to achieve such a feat! This was the most modern standard of long-range soldiers. Compared to Simon, who had innate talent in awareness, they were often able to take on more difficult missions. That was because they wouldn't make any mistakes!
Scarlet hadn't made any mistakes. From the start of the match until now, all of her movements had been as precise as a textbook. Even an expert like Cecil had been beaten to the point where he didn't have any temper left. He was suppressed to a distance of 50 metres, unable to advance even an inch.
Everyone in the viewing gallery had their mouths agape. Scarlet's performance had clearly shocked them. Everyone knew she was strong, but no one expected her to be strong enough to suppress Cecil.
This, this was the tempo of a counterattack?!
"Si, Scarlet!"
"My goddess! Oh my god! I've been completely moved! "
"Oh, saviour! I love Scarlet!"
"Look at this precise positioning, look at this flashy trajectory, look at this flirtatious awareness …"
"Scram! Who are you calling flirtatious! "The sound of sticks being thrown rang out.
"Wu wu wu wu, it was a slip of the tongue! It was just a slip of the tongue, big brothers! "
"Defeat that captain! Long live our goddess! "
The atmosphere that had been suppressed for two rounds finally exploded out like a tsunami!
Who said that our Tianjing Academy didn't have any experts? Who said that our Tianjing Academy was third-rate? Who said that our Tianjing Academy would lose today?
Scarlet, who had always kept a low profile in the academy, had finally exploded!
Even if they had an idiotic captain, they still had the golden couple, Scarlet and Grai. It was more than enough to wipe out everything! Was this intentional by the goddess? She had purposely allowed that idiot to arrange a shoddy battle strategy. Then, she would make a dazzling appearance in the face of danger, supporting the collapse of the building and reversing the raging tides!
Without the green leaves, how could the beauty of a fresh flower be brought out? Without that idiotic performance, how could the importance of a goddess be reflected?
Tricks, it's all tricks. This was the rhythm of showing off!
Look, that idiotic captain is still frowning. Has he finally realized that he's just a fallen leaf that serves as a foil to Scarlet? Wang Zhong didn't frown.
Instead, he had a slightly solemn expression on his face. It wasn't just him. Beside him, Grai had a similar expression. He was very silent, unlike the other members of the audience and the students in the viewing gallery who were about to go crazy.
Scarlet's marksmanship was indeed outstanding. Her ice attribute special ability complemented it very well. However, she had more than enough control, but not enough killing power. Furthermore, her soul power consumption wasn't proportional to Cecil's.
In the end, there was still a disparity in strength. If Scarlet's soul power was around 30 grassos stronger, the result might have been different.
A smirk appeared at the corner of Cecil's mouth. He had already roughly grasped his opponent's strength. It was time to end this.
Soul power erupted out, and he abruptly increased his speed by a third.
Scarlet's Kalam Ice Crystal Rune Gun grew faster and faster, and the bullets fired became increasingly concentrated. Although she was still able to maintain her suppressive state, the consumption of soul power was rapidly increasing.
From the very beginning, she had never thought that she would be able to easily finish off her opponent with a single shot. Therefore, she had controlled the consumption of soul power for every bullet to be balanced and within a completely controllable range. However, from the looks of it, the results weren't that great. This degree of attack was unable to break through her opponent's defence. Although it was able to consume soul power, it seemed that her consumption was much greater.
An even greater might of soul power was poured into her gun. She wanted to pursue greater killing power!
