How do you deceive someone who lives in a lie?
Probably, you just have to do what you need to do seriously, and then your opponent will be led into a ditch by your own imagination.
You didn't say anything, you just showed your inner anxiety, but your opponent's imagination is enough to write a novel. They will take the initiative to fall into your trap and even fill in the gaps for you.
Although the flashing warning lights were still glaring, the situation of the battle was developing in the direction that Rorschach wanted the most.
Jack, who had never spoken the truth in his life, was easily deceived by Rorschach, who never lied.
When two close combat experts meet on such a narrow platform and both choose to end the battle quickly, the most appropriate way to describe the battle would be to say that when two enemies meet on a narrow path, the braver one wins.
Time and space were limited, and when neither side was willing to back down, exchanging injuries for injuries became the inevitable choice.
When the blue magic sword kept cutting the knight's heavy armor, the red magic spear kept bombarding Rorschach's light swordsman.
Fragments flew everywhere, and elemental power and sword energy formed a storm that tore flesh apart.
Both of them had chosen to engage in the most reckless and bloody battle without prior consultation.
Ice and snow magic collided fiercely, and both sides' blades were testing each other's armor. The cruel saws tore at each other, and the warning lights in the magic armor were ignored by both sides.
To fight in such a reckless way, it was a matter of who could last for so long.
"It's too irrational, a light swordsman fighting a heavy knight head-on."
"Even if there isn't enough time, he can't be so reckless."
The audience still didn't think highly of Rorschach, after all, the difference in defense between light swordsman magic armor and knight magic armor was huge, and the difference in the user's profession further widened the difference.
"Rorschach won't last long."
"He's too stupid, competing with a Silver Elf Knight's magic armor defense, doesn't he know how much of a cheat the Silver Elves' True Transformation ability is in this situation?"
But the opinions of the professionals were no different from those of the ordinary audience.
The True Transformation ability was a unique ability of the Silver Elves. Its most basic use was to attach to items and increase their effectiveness.
The Silver Elves were also Elves. Their physique was not outstanding compared to other races, but with their True Transformation ability, they could strengthen their armor and sharpen their spears. Thus, they became the most powerful warrior branch of the Elves and the race of Knights.
The Truth Transformation ability can be used on normal metal armors. Then, can the magic armors receive its buffs? The answer was yes. It was just that an overly large body would consume a lot of energy, so the efficiency of the buff was not very high.
In this era, due to the popularity of magic armors, the Silver Elves who possessed the ability of Truth Transformation were becoming more and more powerful. The job system that combined the power of Truth Transformation was becoming more and more powerful, and the Silver Elves were becoming more and more powerful. Naturally, the Silver Elves began to seek higher authority.
Cough, I digress. The Truth Transformation ability, in the hands of a Silver Elf who had reached a certain level of strength, could be used in many different ways. The simplest and most basic way to use it was to enchant one's magic armor with Truth Transformation, increasing its defense, performance, magic resistance, and other basic attributes.
On one side, the Silver Elf had a heavy magic armor that focused on defense, and it had the powerful buffs of Truth Transformation ability, and it was even used by a Legend Knight. On the other side, the Silver Elf had a light magic armor that did not have much defense, and its user was only a third-step Knight. No matter how one looked at it, choosing to use brute force in close combat was extremely foolish.
But what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.
"Break for me!"
The light swordsman's dual blades slashed down fiercely, and the unrelenting magic sword slashed through the opponent's defense, leaving two deep marks on the Red Knight's magic armor.
"Tsk, he actually retreated in advance."
The first to retreat was actually the heavily armored Red Knight, but Rorschach was still not satisfied with the results of his battle. If it wasn't for the fact that the Red Knight sensed that something was amiss and retreated in advance, that high-quality Red Knight's magic spear would have been sliced in half.
The audience was in an uproar. The heavy magic armor was actually suppressed by the light magic armor. Previously, it could still be said that it was a battle of techniques, but now, it was a direct clash of brute force, just like a child beating up an adult male. No matter how one looked at it, something was wrong.
Inexplicable? Incomprehensible? Perhaps only Jack, who had personally come into contact with the Sword Dancer, knew what was going on.
"Custom-Made?"
When it came to a direct clash of brute force, the difference in material was even more obvious. The enchanted adamantine skeleton was several dozen times more valuable than gold, making this "light magic armor" actually heavier and harder than the opponent's heavy magic armor.
However, the excellent magic armor's performance and Roxia's nimble and quick movements concealed this fact. This made the audience think that Roxia's magic armor was the same as any ordinary light magic armor. Roxia's magic armor was cheap and agile, and his magic armor's defense was negligible.
It was also because he clearly recognized this advantage that Rorschach chose to fight brute force. And now, it seemed that the deceptive tactics that he had set up along the way had already paid off.
This was also a silent lie. Along the way, Rorschach had acted just like a weak and ordinary light magic armor, avoiding everything he could and resolutely not fighting brute force.
Now that the deceptive tactics had succeeded, Jack only realized that he had fallen into a trap after a round of strong attacks. His opponent's light magic armor's defense was actually better than his heavy magic armor's. The result of both sides exchanging blows was that Jack was the one who was injured.
His red magic armor was already full of scars. Many of its outer layers of defense had been forcefully torn off, and the "Warm Snow" poison had already seeped into it.
However, the magic spear that had almost shattered just now suffered the most damage. The cracks on it made people suspect that it would meet its end at any moment. When Jack realized that something was wrong with the situation, his magic spear was viciously targeted by Rorschach as it was the fulcrum of his defense.
Finally, after repeated calculations, Rorschach, who was at a disadvantage in terms of power and experience, gained the upper hand for the first time in his life after his opponent stepped into one trap after another. In this round of head-on clashes, the silver elf's heavy magic armor suffered a great loss.
As for Rorschach's magic armor … Although there were many scars on the surface, the dark gold enchanted adamantine coating underneath was revealed. Jack would be an idiot if he still didn't realize that he had been tricked by Roland when he thought of the incredible cost and diamond-level defense.
"Alright, let's do another round of attacks and shatter his weapon and magic armor. I should be completely safe then."
However, before Rorschach could even begin his wishful thinking, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the situation.
Roland's aura, which had become somewhat chaotic during the battle, suddenly calmed down as if his earlier anxiety had been fake. Meanwhile, Roland's magic energy seemed to have become quite strange. It was a strange power that Roland had never seen before.
"… Now, it's time for you to learn that equipment is nothing more than playthings. Only your own pure power is eternal, and is the key to controlling life and death."
A faint blue flame suddenly scorched the entire platform. Rorschach didn't even have time to react before the sound of an alarm filled the entire platform. He knew that he had gone too far this time.
