"Combo?" Angor was puzzled.
He was unfamiliar with the term. But judging from its meaning, it seemed to be … continuous slashes?
Angor considered and gathered several illusion nodes to create a scene. A man in meditation suddenly opened his eyes.
He drew his sword and slashed at the wooden stake in front of him at an extremely fast speed, sending out a flash of sword light. When the man sheathed his sword, two "Hua Hua" sounds came from behind him. Two deep sword marks appeared on the wooden stake.
It was only one slash, but it left two deep marks on the wooden stake.
This was what Angor understood as "combo".
"Is this what you mean by" combo "?" Angor looked at Dorcas.
Dorcas replied, "That's not quite right.
But you can think of it that way. But … why did you use me as an example? "
"Even if you want to use me as an example, can't you change the target to something else? A shallow sea strongman would be fine too. How can it be a wooden stake? I didn't even break it. How is that possible? "
The man in Angor's illusion was Dorcas, and the sword in his hand was also the red sword on his waist.
"You can think of it as me imagining you as a mortal," Angor said.
Dorcas wanted to say something, but Angor ignored his protest and kept asking, "Why not? What's a real combo? What does Aikesha's combo mean? "
Dorcas: "The scene in your illusion is, at best, a double-barreled sword. And it's only a slash in the material world. As long as you're fast enough and skilled enough, it's not hard to replicate it. It can be considered a combo, but it's only the way you laymen understand it. "
"A real combo, in the eyes of Bloodline Wizards, is not a simple attack in the material world. A real combo is an energy attack that can be released multiple times in an instant! Also, when attacking, you only need to use the power of one hit to trigger the momentum of the combo. "
Just think about it. A Bloodline Wizard could release multiple attacks in an instant, and only use the power of one hit.
Such a combo was terrifying.
It could destroy the world.
Dorcas continued, "And this kind of continuous slash technique is an ability that bloodline Magi yearn for even in their dreams. Not just anyone can use it."
A normal knight or swordsman's combo was the same as what he saw in his illusion. In a broad sense, it was a combo, but not the same as what Bloodline Wizards saw.
In the eyes of Bloodline Adepts, consecutive slashes were a powerful ability that could even be called a secret technique.
It was just a single strike, but it brought about a continuous slashing force. Furthermore, this slashing force was not limited to the physical world, but also the application of energy.
"Now that you mention it, it's a powerful slash spell. Do you know how to use it?" Angor looked at Dorcas.
Dorcas put on an awkward expression and stuttered, "Well … I know a little bit about that.
It'll be better. "
"A little" meant that he did not know how to do it.
"So …"
You mean, even you don't know how to slash continuously, but that person called Aixen can … I understand, you're jealous? "
Dorcas protested in a small voice, "It's not that I don't know how to do it. I just haven't mastered it yet."
"Jealous of Aixen? No way. I'm not jealous. There are Bloodline Wizards who know how to use combo. Do I have to be jealous of every single one of them? "
Angor was still doubtful. "If you're not jealous, then why did you mention his combo?"
"Because he's not qualified to use it."
"Not qualified?" Angor glanced at Dorcas from the corner of his eyes. "You're not jealous?"
Dorcas sighed, "You don't understand at all … Forget it, I'll show you and you'll understand."
Dorcas borrowed several illusion nodes from Angor and quickly used his spirit power to simulate the scene he saw at that time.
It was dusk, and the business district was still bustling as usual. The colorful lights from the shop signs illuminated the low clouds.
Suddenly, a thunderous roar came from the business district where even the moonlight was blocked by the neon lights.
A Shallow Sea Strongman the size of a small hill rushed out of the guild area. Like a blue cannonball, the Shallow Sea Strongman dashed toward the arena.
During this process, the earth trembled. The originally calm business district showed the panic of an impending disaster. Everywhere, there were people running for their lives.
Although the Shallow Sea Hercules did not attack the people who were running away, it did not actively avoid the people in its path either.
One of them, a man in a cultivator's robe, lost his balance and fell to the ground because of the tremors. At the same time, the Shallow Sea Strongman was also passing by the cultivator.
Before the cultivator was about to be trampled to death, Aixen stepped forward.
He arrived at the cultivator robed man's side at an extremely fast speed. When the Shallow Sea Strongman was about to step on the cultivator robed man, he pulled out a slender blunt sword and blocked the Shallow Sea Strongman's foot.
The blunt sword didn't stop the Shallow Sea Strongman, and the giant foot was still going to crush the cultivator's body.
When everyone thought the cultivator was going to die, another sword flash appeared under the Shallow Sea Strongman's foot.
It looked exactly the same as the previous one, which meant it came from Aixen as well. But Aixen didn't release a second attack.
Aixen only did two things. First, he drew his sword, and second, he pulled back his sword and dragged the cultivator away.
When the first sword flash failed to stop the Shallow Sea Strongman, Aixen began to drag the cultivator away. When everyone thought the fight was over, the second sword flash appeared.
Aixen didn't do anything during the fight, but the second sword flash appeared half a second after the first.
The second sword flash worked together with the first and forced the Shallow Sea Strongman to take a small step back.
It was only a small step, but it gave Aixen enough time to save the cultivator.
This was the scene that Dorcas had conjured.
Earlier, when he saw the giant footprints in the business district, he tried to imagine what happened there. Now that Dorcas was here, Angor was sure that his imagination was correct. Even the person she saved was indeed the man in Taoist robes who had fled to the Starry Street.
The only thing Angor didn't expect was that Aixen attacked the Shallow Sea Strongman twice in a row, not once.
"Nice power. Is that the 'combo' you mentioned?" Angor asked.
Dorcas nodded. "Yes, it is."
"Is there a problem?" Angor asked.
At least Angor didn't see anything strange in the illusion. Aixen's combo didn't look any different from the "swordsman chopping wood" Angor simulated in the beginning.
But it was much weaker than the "combo" Dorcas bragged about.
"I know what you're thinking. You don't think the combo is strong enough, do you? I don't think it's strong either, but I'm sure he's using a combo. His combo doesn't look strong, but he's already grasped the essence of it. "
"Which means he's further on the path of combo than you are."
Dorcas grumbled, "Don't compare me to him. I told you, there's something wrong with his combo."
"What is it?" Angor asked.
"His combo is as smooth as his, and he can even lift heavy objects as if they were nothing. That means he's very good at it. But his body can't support his combo at all. That's why I said he's not qualified to use it. "
"Why can't his body support his combo?" Angor didn't get it. Combo had physical requirements?
"Real combo requires physical requirements, of course. His blood essence and energy must be large enough to reach a certain level. This is the foundation of learning combo. Currently, my blood energy has barely met the requirements to learn Combo Slash. As for him, he's not a bloodline user. His blood energy is much weaker than mine, yet he was able to learn Combo Slash and use it. This is very problematic. "
Aixen wasn't a Bloodline Wizard?
Angor met Aixen before. He couldn't tell which wizard Aixen belonged to. But judging from the man's appearance and bulging muscles, Angor guessed that Aixen was a Bloodline Wizard.
But it seemed he was wrong.
Dorcas sighed helplessly. "How can I be wrong about whether he's a Bloodline Wizard or not? I have some reputation among the bloodline adepts! "
"I'm sure he's not a Bloodline Wizard. Unless … he's much stronger than me. A level-2 truth-finder wizard might be able to fool me. But do you think he can do that? "
Angor recalled what happened when he met Aixen and shook his head again.
If Aixen was really a level-2 truth-finder wizard, he shouldn't have been so cautious when he saw Angor. He should have been calm and unafraid.
Therefore, in terms of emotional perception alone, Aixen did not seem like a powerhouse who could be crushed by his strength.
Based on Angor's experience, Aixen should be above a formal wizard and below a truth-finder wizard. He should be an early or mid-level-1 wizard.
"Maybe there's another way to learn Combo Slash as well? Skills that don't require blood essence and energy? "
Dorcas nodded heavily. "Yes!"
Angor thought Dorcas would deny it, but he didn't expect Dorcas to admit it this time.
"That's why I'm suspicious of him," Dorcas explained calmly. "That's why I'm suspicious of him."
"The real combo technique originated from the wild gods of the Wildlands World.
"If Aixen didn't rely on blood essence to achieve the combo, then there's only one possibility. His combo was given to him directly by a wild god. Do you get what I'm saying now?"
Angor would have to be an idiot if he still didn't get it.
"God" wasn't the name of a race. It was the name given to the origin of religion in various worlds.
There were no gods in the wizarding world. In the minds of wizards, they were gods. However, there were many worlds around the wizarding world that had gods.
For example, there were demons in the Abyss Plane, evil gods in Loft, foreign gods in Granda, and wild gods in the Wildlands World.
Although their strength was different, in terms of classification, they could all be counted as gods.
Among them, demons and evil gods weren't as interested in the wizarding world, while foreign gods and wild gods wanted to interfere with the wizarding world. Wild gods were the biggest threat to the wizarding world.
There were so many barbarian hybrids in the wizarding world.
Wild gods were the foreign gods that the Supreme Cult dealt the most damage to. But at the same time, they were also the ones who meddled the most in the southern wizarding world.
Wild sacrifices were found everywhere. Countless civilians died, and countless barbarians infiltrated the wizarding world.
Even now, the Supreme Cult couldn't completely eliminate all the wild gods. For example, in the center of Ferran Continent, there was a vast wildland area where many primitive tribes lived. Barbarian and human hybrids could be seen everywhere. This showed how far the wild gods' influence reached in the southern wizarding world.
If Aixen's combo was given to him by a wild god, then he was very likely to be the god's favorite. Even if he was a human, he could still be a spy for the Wildlands World.
This was why Dorcas paid so much attention to Aixen. Was there something else behind Aixen's combo?
Of course, Dorcas wasn't just looking for a spy for the Supreme Cult. Another reason why the wild gods could reach so far in the southern wizarding world was that humans were the first ones to provoke the Wildlands World.
Besides, there were many human wizards in the Wildlands World. Eighty percent of them were Bloodline Wizards. They were here to obtain the bloodlines of monsters. They even built a supernatural city in the Wildlands World.
Therefore, both parties were not innocent.
A mere favor from a wild god wasn't enough to make Dorcas wave the banner of righteousness. He must have his own reasons for paying attention to Aixen. For example, he wanted to learn more combo skills.
Regardless of what Dorcas was thinking, if Aixen's combo was really given to him by a wild god, it was no small matter.
Also, Angor believed that Aixen might have something to do with the attackers.
If that was the case, then the truth behind this attack might not be so simple.
Still, Angor didn't believe Dorcas's words completely. There were still many contradictions in Aixen's story that needed to be observed.
Besides, were there really only two ways to learn combo skills?
He could go to the dream wasteland and ask someone about it later. Or maybe he could ask Count Black directly.
"By the way, didn't Count Black and the others come with you?"
Dorcas shook his head. "No. Wai and Count Black went to negotiate with the Bilos Family. I came back alone. But the wizards of the Bilos Family must have heard about the attack at Biron Tree Garden. Maybe they're already on their way back. Wai and the others will come with them. "
