Chapter 601
"Do you do it again?"
At noon, a gray-eyed teenager brandishing two daggers bit his lip in a circular open space in the palace courtyard. , And look at the black hair wizard on the opposite side.
The expressionless Loren had two Knight swords on the left and right, standing upright in front of him, slightly nodded.
In just a blink of an eye, the gray pupil boy has already rushed in front of him!
Like slow motion, the point of the sharp blade in Lucien's hand is constantly expanding in the sight of the black hair wizard... Loren, desperately trying his best, escaped a frontal blow from the opponent and set up the right hand. There was a loud impact from the long sword, and the flames of friction burst open.
The black hair wizard took advantage of the momentum and slid to the left. The dagger cut by Lu Sien cut off the corner of his clothes, and the sharp blade in the other hand was as good as a scratch.
The cheetah-like gray pupil did not retract his sword, but opened his arms and swept forward; the black hair wizard who was forcibly forced to retreat had no way of retreat.
There is no way back, you can only move forward!
Facing the two sharp blades that were smashed at the same time from the front, Lu Sien did not retreat but moved forward. The retracted right hand forcibly blocked the falling sharp blade, while the short sword of his left hand pierced into the void and pierced into nothing. Loren dodges everywhere.
In a flash, Loren flicked his sword and slid, and could not dodge the direct stabbing within a few millimeters. At the same time, the right hand held the sword hilt and stabbed Lu Sien in front of the door!
At this moment, the gray pupil seemed to be casually turning his left hand into a parry, and at the same time blocked the right hand of the black hair wizard sword edge. offensive.
"Clang——!!!"
The four swords intersected two by one, and the impact sparks and strong wind blew through Loren’s ears, and his neck and waist were only different. It's only ten centimeters away.
But it's just that Lucien was deliberately slow.
………………………………………………
Throwing the double sword aside inadvertently, the black hair wizard picked up the water glass. At the same time, he handed another cup to Lucien, who was also gasping for breath in front of him, with some expectation in his eyes: "How?"
"It's much better than before, but there are still some problems."
"For example?" Loren sat down directly and poured himself a glass of water.
"A lot of your previous habits have not been reversed." The gray-pupil who drank in one drink was relieved, and his heartbeat gradually stabilized: "The two-handed sword technique is different from using two swords at the same time. Weapons are independent and united as a whole."
"To put it more bluntly, it is not an attack and a parry, but the hands must be able to constantly change between parry and attack at the same time, separate from each other. Think about it—this is the advantage of the sword technique with both hands. Wouldn't it be better to have a shield and a long sword?"
black hair wizard looked thoughtful nodded.
"In addition...you seem to have a subconsciously action."
"Subconsciously?"
"Yes, you are always avoiding intentionally or unintentionally Your own weapon... To be more precise, you never seem to let your sword be within ten centimeters of yourself."
Lucien slightly frowned: "This is actually not a good habit, once discovered If you do, it will be used by your opponent... and there is such a space, it will also make it difficult for you to use it at a critical moment."
"Well...I will try my best to pay attention."
Loren He smiled bitterly and twitched the corners of his mouth... This "bad habit" was developed when Loren started fighting with "Bright Silver". After all, it was encountered by Bright Silver's sword glow. It was not a "knock" problem...
The gray pupil shrugged his shoulders crookedly, and didn't seem to hold any expectations.
"Why does Lord Loren want to learn the two-hand sword technique?"
"en?"
"Nothing, just curious." Lucien eyesbrows raised , There was a hint of confusion in his clear eyes: "You are already a very strong sorcerer. This kind of weak to defeat the strong sword technique is not very helpful to you... What's the use?"
"Well... it should be a different way of thinking." Loren thought about it seriously: "Just like you said, the two-handed sword technique is not just a simple Use two swords, but a completely different, divided into two battle method."
"As for whether it is useful...Who knows this."
Confused gray The young pupil scratched his head, did not understand the meaning of black hair wizard, but vaguely felt that it might have something to do with the so-called "heretical sect".
In his impression, Loren Torino, whom he is loyal to, is an extremely restrained and cautious person; under the overwhelming majority situation, he looks calm, only at critical moments... In other words, when he is very unsure... there will be strong mood swings.
That night at Gorse Manor...Although the black hair wizard deliberately pretended to have a dull expression that was at worst, the killing intent and solemn eyes were impossible to fake.
He must have discovered something that made him startled and even frightened...Except for this explanation, Lucien really couldn't find any answer.
All I can do is to stand by his side and complete every task he entrusted to myself... I am the sword in his hand.
Weapons don’t require thinking, only execution.
Just as the gray pupil relaxed for a while, a burst of inexplicable cold suddenly hit the back of his neck!
The instinctively reacting Lucien's right hand immediately tightened, and his palm was cold light flashed. The dagger he held back was not looking at the stab behind him, and at the same time he stretched out his hand like lightning to protect the black hair wizard on one side.
"pa ——!"
The stagnation of the blade made Lu Sien's eyes widened, and his pupils shrank suddenly.
Your sword... was actually blocked? !
"Aiya... it's so dangerous, it's almost dead."
There is an expression of false alarm on the corner of his mouth, and Asriel in a little red and black dress has his right hand behind him. , The index finger and thumb of the left hand gently pinched the dagger which was only a few minutes apart from the neck, and the smiling eyes looked at the gray-eyed boy: "It is indeed Loren Torino's The guard, I was actually noticed just after walking behind me."
I should say this... Lucien frowned, his eyes narrowed, and he didn't mean to close the sword.
No breathing, no heartbeat, and no footsteps... I didn’t realize it until I was within three steps of the opponent, just think about it, have one's hair stand on end!
For this self-proclaimed "Miss Ariel Corona's Steward", a teenager of his own age, Lucien always has a kind of inexplicable hostility...especially the inadvertent hostility with the Lord Loren. Familiarity and closeness made him even more suspicious.
Did you meet in Eboden...but why does His Excellency Ain Rand have no impression of this so-called "steward"?
Or, is there something unspeakable privately...
"Stop it." The black hair wizard interrupted them abruptly.
Asriel smiled and let go of his finger, the coldly snorted gray-eyed boy put away the dagger in his hand, got up and stood beside Loren; the not-tall silhouette stood in place like a javelin.
Sighed, Loren had to change the subject: "What's the matter?"
"Um...two news, although exactly one." Ignoring Lu Sien is full of murderous aura The young man with a smile on the corner of his mouth tilted his head: "About the hallucinogen that appeared in the last heresy rally, the Vice-President of the Wizard Association...that is, the former president Rams F Lord Reswalk found some clues. It seems that this kind of medicine has been very popular among the nobles of the Scarlet Blood Castle recently, and it often appears on some Sand Dragons."
"As for the source, it is more mysterious, those nobles. Most of them are obtained through friends and social networks, but they have basically been locked on a few wandering wizards in the count domain;"
"Wandering wizard?"
"Yes. This is also thanks to Lord Loren’s reforms to the wizard association, and of course the hard work of the Deputy Sir President." Asriel smiled on his face: "Almost all the wizards in the territory have registered their identities in the association in exchange for Cheaper and better quality experimental materials, as a result, the tail of the fox appeared..."
"Not only that, according to rumors, there is also a more high-level expensive'new medicine'... I can feel the pleasure of ascending to heaven...Uh, the rumors say that, Asriel just repeats it."
"Well, this has been expected." Loren slightly nodded: "The second one. ?"
"The place where Governor Gaspar kept the'monster'... has been found."
