After signing the contract, both sides stood in opposite positions.
After the announcement of the contract, the surrounding onlookers finally felt a trace of the tense atmosphere of this life and death duel. Two nobles were about to fight to the death in this hundred-meter wide arena. Such a scene was rare.
Under normal circumstances, the nobles on the side of the duel would appoint their knights to accept the challenge on their behalf to avoid any accidents.
"The duel … begins!"
Tim, who was in charge of the arbitration, suddenly waved his arm.
With a clang, Arquette unsheathed his rapier and rushed towards Bai Xiaowen with small steps.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Four skeletal shield bearers appeared and landed around Arquette. Four iron swords slashed down at the same time.
Arquette did not panic. The Ironthorn family had already collected information on "Baron Dior". He was a summoner who had many summoned creatures and a powerful magic crossbow. He also had control spells, but his strength was weak in close combat.
"My secret inscriptions can seal his control type magic! Then I only need to deal with his summoned creatures. I have already figured out the specific tactics … "
Arquette raised his hand and waved it at Bai Xiaowen. A transparent seal flashed and disappeared.
Bai Xiaowen felt the surrounding psionic particles fluctuate, and then received a notification.
"Based on your gift of insight, you have received the following battle information."
"Arquette the Mystic Swordsman used the seal of engraving on you. In the next (30) seconds, all spells you cast will fail. The spell energy will be used by the opponent to strengthen the damage of the mystic sword."
Bai Xiaowen understood. The seal of engraving could seal spells, but it could not seal physical skills, nor could it seal summoning skills.
Under the pincer attack of the four skeletal shield bearers, Arquette showed amazing skills. He twisted his body like a poisonous snake and dodged several iron swords. His rapier pierced out fiercely and directly hit the throat of the skeletal shield bearers.
With a crack, the skull of the first skeletal shield bearer fell to the ground, followed by the second, the third …
While Arquette was fighting, his chameleon blood camouflage finally failed, and the suppressed psionic waves spread out.
Tim and the other two knights' faces suddenly changed. They could feel the tyrannical aura from Arquette's body, which was several times stronger than before!
"Baron Stantine was actually hiding his strength!"
"Viscount Cecilia, Albert Constantine has ulterior motives. Viscount Dior might be in danger!"
"We should stop this duel!"
The three knights spoke almost at the same time to remind Cecilia.
Cecilia was shocked, but she shook her head and said, "Bring me my bow."
A large bow inlaid with silver was handed to Cecilia. Cecilia stood calmly with her bow and said nothing.
The three knights wanted to persuade him again, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Then, he looked at the situation in the field.
Arquette's Agility was close to 60 points, and he was really fast. His swordsmanship was obviously at a very high level, and he could easily find the weaknesses of the skeletal shield bearers and use them. Of course, this was also because of the attribute suppression.
In the blink of an eye, the three skeletal shield bearers fell to the ground, and Arquette didn't even lose a bit of health points.
Bai Xiaowen raised the Desert Eagle and aimed at Arquette with a smile.
Bang!
At the moment of the gunshot, the last skeletal shield bearer suddenly threw away its iron sword and used its bone claws to hit Arquette with a shield attack.
Arquette's strength wasn't high. Although this shield attack didn't make him lose his balance, it made his movement speed decrease, and he couldn't dodge Bai Xiaowen's bullet.
At the sound of the gunshot, blood suddenly splashed out from Arquette's shoulder.
A piercing pain surged, and half of Arquette's shoulder was dripping with blood! In the haze, the shadow of the Beastman Chieftain passed through, and his mind was shaken.
"This … this is impossible!" Arquette held his left shoulder and gritted his teeth.
Critical hit, headshot, penetration, and the special effect of the Blood Essence Stone! This attack took away more than 200 health points from Arquette. If it had hit a vital point, it was very likely that it would have killed him instantly! Even if it didn't hit a vital point, the single high damage caused Arquette's left shoulder to be injured.
Fortunately, Arquette's dominant hand was his right hand, and his strength wasn't damaged. With a howl, he stabbed the fourth skeletal shield bearer to the ground, and moved in a snake-like manner, approaching Bai Xiaowen!
The reason he moved in a snake-like manner was because he was afraid of Bai Xiaowen's shooting power. What he didn't know was that Bai Xiaowen's shooting power was only the first shot, and the damage after that wouldn't be so terrifying, unless he was lucky enough to trigger another critical hit, and then he would have to encounter a fourth bullet.
With a whistling sound, a skeleton with thick joints swung a greatsword and rushed over. It was the Skeleton Warrior that had used Whirlwind Slash.
Arquette's strength wasn't as strong as the Skeleton Warrior, and he was knocked back two steps, losing his balance. The Undead Fiend Arcane Master suddenly raised its bone claw, and a bolt of lightning struck down, paralyzing Arquette's body.
In this short period of less than a second, the Shadow Assassin had already closed in, and a dagger stabbed towards Arquette's back.
Arquette shouted loudly and used Flicker Strike abruptly! His figure disappeared from the spot, and in the next second, he appeared behind Bai Xiaowen.
"Die!"
With deep resentment, Arquette's rapier stabbed towards Bai Xiaowen's back like a bolt of lightning.
A black shadow fell from the sky, and a huge wall of flesh suddenly appeared. The rapier pierced through, but all it got was a grunt from Fatty.
"Oh?"
At this time, Bai Xiaowen activated the speed increase skill of his shoes, and rushed forward a few steps. He wasn't in a hurry, and he turned around to continue shooting.
Arquette hurriedly broke away from Fatty's entanglement, and continued to pursue Bai Xiaowen.
The Wrath Claw rushed out from the side, and knocked Arquette back. Following that, the Skeleton Warrior and Fatty surrounded Arquette, blocking his escape route.
"It's about time. He already used Flicker Strike, and if he doesn't have the ability to move, he won't be able to break out of the Wrath Claw's encirclement. Out of respect for his unknown fourth skill, it's better to play it safe … Close the door, release the ghost! "
With Bai Xiaowen's current strength, defeating Arquette was actually very easy. However, he wanted to show off his strength in all aspects, and make his presence known in front of his subjects, so he had to use all kinds of methods.
Thus, Arquette was beaten up …
A shadow appeared, and the Evil Ghost raised its hands, casting Resentment at Arquette!
Arquette's Spirit attribute was 25 points, which wasn't considered low in theory. However, he first used Secret Seal of Engraving, then used Flicker Strike, and these two major skills consumed more than 10 points of Spirit. Arquette definitely couldn't endure the 15 seconds of Evil Ghost's absorption.
