However.
When Reynolds Bane successfully activated his supreme Ultimacy, he raised his head confidently and looked at his opponent.
However, he realized that Elvin, who was prepared, was standing not far away from him. He held a sword in his right hand and pointed his left index finger at him. There was a faint red supernatural light flickering at the tip of his finger.
"Uh … I was too careless!"
Elvin's superb Knight realm and swordsmanship skills made him almost forget that his opponent was not only a Knight, but also an official Sorcerer.
Not only did he buy time for himself to activate his Ultimacy, but it also gave his opponent a chance to cast spells.
Then.
Coun —
In the midst of the strange incantation, which made people feel a rush of dizziness.
An invisible force hit Reynolds Bane at lightning speed.
[Official Sorcery, Blood Reflux!]
For an official Knight, it was just a matter of firing a gun and pulling a finger. It was enough to move in front of the gunman and kill him in advance.
Moreover, there was no spell that could be used more conveniently than pulling the trigger.
Even if a powerful Sorcerer had the power to destroy heaven and earth, in a short head-on confrontation with a Knight, most of the sorcerers could only use basic sorcery that was similar to pulling the trigger and could be cast almost instantly.
Of course, except for those heretic Sorcerers who added points to strength and agility.
In the previous intense battle, Elvin did not scrupulously abide by the Knight's spirit and deliberately did not cast spells. It was just that he did not find an opportunity.
Now.
Taking advantage of the gap when Reynolds Bane activated his supernatural Ultimacy, Elvin was finally able to use the first direct killing sorcery that he mastered after becoming an official Sorcerer.
Based on a series of in-depth understanding of the human body during the apprentice stage, he was able to cast [Blood Reflux].
However, for an apex Knight who dealt with all kinds of strange things in the New World.
Even if he did not have any supernatural energy, if he was so easily killed by sorcery, he would have been killed by the Atrian natives before Elvin.
How could he live such a carefree life?
The moment the sorcery power easily passed through the "Sacrificial Circle" and approached his body.
Pa —
There was a loud crack like a whip from Reynolds Bane.
A [Witchcraft Immunity Amulet], which was provided by the Church of Eternal Fire for the Knight who worked in the military, suddenly glowed and blocked the attack for him.
Although it did not make him immune to this sinister spell used by an official Magus, it did weaken its effects by at least 40%.
But even so.
Wow!
Reynolds Bane also spat out a mouthful of blood.
Even with the powerful body of a peak-level Knight, he couldn't stand the high-speed flow of his blood due to the 100% release of his body. He instantly slammed on the brakes.
His originally healthy and fair skin was now dark red. It was clear that the capillaries under his skin had ruptured on a large scale. The blood vessels in the internal organs could not be seen, but it was obvious that it was impossible for him to be unscathed.
After being weakened by the amulet, Reynolds Bane's "Blood Reverse" didn't really kill him, but his "Body Liberation" ability as a peak-level Knight was greatly reduced.
Before he could readjust his body.
Boom!
Elvin had already stepped on the seawater and took the initiative to attack with his sword.
Reynolds Bane could only endure the stinging pain in his blood vessels and internal organs and barely raised his sword to block. Even the two-meter-long attack and defense circle of the [Circle of Sacrificial Rites], which had just been activated, flickered and became unstable.
Originally, in this circle, he had absolute control and could even achieve the effect of absolute defense with his swordsmanship. Not to mention a long sword, even water couldn't splash through.
But at this moment.
There was a flaw in the perfect Profound Meaning of Swordsmanship, and it was difficult to say that it was supreme.
[Profound Meaning — Floating Boat!]
Elvin seized the opportunity and slid past him like a light boat skimming the water, leaving a long bloody mark on the left side of his chest.
Hiss!
This was also the first time in this battle that Reynolds Bane, who had excellent swordsmanship from a famous school, was hurt by Elvin's sword.
At the moment when they passed each other.
Elvin had already used the "Magic Pocket" to switch the weapons in his hands.
The two excellent double-barreled flintlocks that he got from "Blood Hand" were already in his hands.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Just as he dodged to a distance of two meters away, he decisively opened fire and poured out four fiery lead bullets.
In fact, Elvin was also afraid that the moment he stayed in the circle while attacking, Reynolds Bane would seize the opportunity to reconstruct the attack and defense circle and completely trap him inside.
A person's reputation was like a tree's shadow.
Since the name "Supreme Swordsmanship" had been used for so many years without being exposed by anyone, it must be real. He had no interest in personally verifying the "Mary Chesky Circle."
Just as Elvin expected.
The moment he withdrew, the "Circle of Ritual" had already opened up again. He didn't even see Reynolds Bane swing his sword, and two bullets had already shattered and fallen into the sea.
Hiss!
It was the power of the pseudo "Sword Aura" that filled the circle with all kinds of calculations and parameters.
As for the other two bullets, one was blocked by the spine of the Swift Sword as he turned around and lifted his sword. Only the last bullet brushed past his cheek and left a bloody mark when he tilted his head slightly.
At this moment, Elvin was even more unwilling to fight with such unreasonable swordsmanship.
Sheathing his guns, he waved his hand and threw out two green bottles of "Potent Voodoo Potion."
Didn't you claim to have absolute defense even against water droplets? What about the vaporized poison?
Reynolds Bane, who recognized what it was, no longer had the strength to condemn Elvin, the disgrace among Knights. How dare he use voodoo, guns, and poison in a fair swordsmanship duel?!
If he was in the Supreme Swordsmanship School, such behavior would definitely lead to expulsion from the school forever!
After experiencing Elvin's various attacks, Reynolds Bane was so angry that the veins on his forehead were throbbing. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he even felt some warmth flowing in his ears and nose.
"Despicable!"
After cursing in vain, Reynolds Bane didn't intend to take the "Voodoo Potion" head-on. He had already removed the "Profound Meaning" and tore the seawater apart and dived into the water.
At this moment, he had already given up his plan to finish Elvin as quickly as possible. From the bottom of the sea, he quickly lunged at the two warships that were engaged in a chaotic battle.
It was because during the confrontation just now, he had already heard the moans of his old partner, Stanley, in the chaotic battle cries from hundreds of meters away.
He knew that under the siege of two Supernaturals and a "sniper", his old partner, as a senior Knight, might not be able to hold on any longer.
He had to go back immediately!
Otherwise, once the Supernaturals on the warship finished the battle, his regular crew members would be at the mercy of the enemy even though they had the advantage in numbers.
For a peak-level Knight whose body was close to that of a monster, he was much faster than a cheetah even when he was diving. In the few seconds when Elvin was still preparing to deal with his ambush, he was already less than a hundred meters away from the battlefield.
"Don't be hasty. Don't go!"
Behind him, Elvin had already caught up with him quickly.
He even took out a tough, long rope from his "magic pocket" and threw it out.
The "Revitalizing Aura" in his hand spread to the long rope and turned into an animating rope that looked like a snake. It automatically crawled into the seawater and tied up Reynolds Bane's ankle.
It was instantly straightened!
The situation on the warship was going well. Naturally, Elvin didn't want the troublemaker to go back.
With his immense strength and extraordinary swordsmanship, he wasn't confident at all that he could guarantee the safety of Milan and the rest of them.
Besides, he wanted to completely end Elvin here. Didn't Elvin think the same way?
A resolute and self-disciplined half-step Master was probably only a bottle of "Behemoth's Breath" away from the Grand Knight.
While the two of them were fighting again …
On the other hand, the situation on the warship had changed abruptly. It was even safe to say that it had finally ushered in the greatest turning point since the beginning of the battle!
In a situation where there was no superfluous supernatural power to stop Milan, his metaphysical shots were frequently successful.
Bam!
Finally, when Stanley was slowed down by Boris's saber in the thigh, Milan's metaphysical shot brushed past his waist again and took away a large piece of flesh.
"Ahhh!"
Then, Gary seized the opportunity and decapitated him with an axe.
At this moment, except for Edmund who had hidden in the lower cabin because of the exhaustion of his strength, there were no other Transcendent living on the warship.
What made the situation worse was that …
After such a long time, the Strider, which was able to move freely, had copied the enemy's strategy and successfully approached the warship from the other side.
After the new troops were added, the gap in numbers was evened out, too. After a brutal battle, "Starden Castle" was already at a disadvantage.
The situation took a turn for the worse!
At this moment, the last surviving Transcendent, Edmund, couldn't hide anymore.
In fact, he didn't hide because he was afraid of death, but because he had full confidence in the Shilius warriors who had started the boarding battle.
However, he didn't expect that they would be at a disadvantage in the boarding battle when they had Reynolds Bane, a peak-level Knight and a half-step Master Swordsman.
No, this was already a foreseeable failure!
Unless Reynolds Bane could kill the enemy in a short period of time and come back to reinforce them.
However …
Edmund saw the huge waves exploding on the surface of the sea through the porthole and admitted that they had underestimated their opponent. At the same time, he made up his mind.
"Stanley has returned to the embrace of God. Now, it's time for me to sacrifice myself for God!"
In the lower cabin, the brazier was lit again.
But this time, Edmund didn't drip holy oil into it. Instead, he dripped his devout blood as a priest of the Eternal Fire.
There was no fear on his face. Instead, there was boundless fanaticism. He cut open his wrists with the gold-inlaid ivory dagger, and his blood flowed into the brazier. The bright yellow flame that was already suffused with white light soared nearly a meter high.
"Eternal Fire, I pray to you.
Eternal Fire, I place my faith in you.
.....
Eternal Fire, there is no other god in my eyes. "
[Divine Spell: Sacrifice!]
'Sacrifice' was a noble concept, but if it were any other wizard of the same level, they would never make such a choice. They would either escape or use their own value to fight for the treatment of a captive.
But to the fanatics of the Eternal Fire, this was the meaning of their lives!
In the doctrine of the Eternal Fire, priests were the servants of God. Although their lives were short, they could obtain eternal peace in God's Kingdom after death.
Therefore, these fanatics were not afraid of death at all.
The solemn and devout prayers grew louder and louder, echoing throughout the entire warship. It also boosted the morale of many of the Shilius' devout believers.
At the same time, they shouted, "Eternal Fire, I place my faith in you!"
“.....”
"Not good! Hurry up and interrupt him. We can't let him complete the divine spell. "
Boris, who had experienced it once, clearly knew the consequences of the divine spell's completion. The scene of the violent explosion and the destruction of half the ship appeared in front of his eyes again.
After killing the enemy's captain with Gary, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, his heart was already filled with boundless fear.
He raised the sword in his hand again and pulled Gary, who was beside him, towards the cabin door that led to the lower level.
Kaboom!
The wooden door had exploded by itself, and a burning figure stepped out.
He was wearing a flaming robe, and two flaming horns were slowly growing on his forehead. The surface of his body was filled with burning cracks, and he looked like a terrifying fiery demon from hell.
But his face was overflowing with radiance, like the purest of saints!
Edmund's torch-like eyes scanned the Faletis soldiers who had gained the upper hand. He opened his mouth and sent out a greeting that was like boiling lava.
"Burn! Burn! Burn! "
