Sean suddenly appeared without warning. At that moment, a strong wind came to his face and hurt Wenqi's cheeks. His hair was blown back by the strong wind, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

unbelievable!

Wenqi's look at the moment was unbelievable.

Although the absolute safety value recorded in the mage's manual is only applicable to mages above the silver level, it can be recorded in the mage's manual by no means casually.

Almost every magician, after formal contact with magic, except some extreme magicians, most of them first consider their own protective ability, so basically, most magicians first master pure magic defensive magic. This kind of magic does not need to rely on elements, but is purely supported and consumed by magic and spiritual power. Therefore, it has inherent rapidity in casting speed.

Moreover, at the beginning of the duel, even if the opponent wants to charge, it will be limited by the initial running speed of the human body.

This limitation is caused by the body. Only with the enhancement of strength and the strengthening of the body can it be gradually improved. Of course, the limit of this initial speed can also be improved by using special abilities such as secret arts and forbidden arts. However, the reason why this ability is called Forbidden arts and secret arts must also have unknown side effects. Therefore, no one will use these special abilities called reversing the war situation at the beginning of the duel.

Therefore, the determination of the absolute safety value of 20 meters recorded in the mage's manual is not unreasonable.

Of course, this is only for soldiers. If the opponent is an assassin who is naturally famous for speed, the distance will be increased by ten meters again.

After all, the so-called duel and competition must be based on a fair environment to a certain extent.

Everything is carried out according to the formal process, but why is Sean so fast?

Is it secret or forbidden?

There was a look of horror in Wenqi's eyes.

It was completely a subconscious conditioned reflex. A powerful magic wave spread from Wenqi in an instant. Sean close at hand could even feel the wave of Wenqi's spiritual power spreading on his skin.

Magic barrier.

This is the defensive magic that magicians are best at and first exposed to: the magic emitted from magicians will cover the whole body along the guidance of magicians' spiritual power, and then this magic will expand and deteriorate, although it is not comparable to the defensive magic of arcane and earth systems in terms of defense power, But this is a magic that can be cast immediately in any environment and under any circumstances - as long as there is magic left on the magician.

With Wenqi's current strength, it's no problem for the magic barrier to withstand Sean's chop.

As long as we can withstand this attack, when the distance is opened again, it is not a problem to want to fight Sean normally with Wenqi's strength.

Confidence began to condense again in Wenqi's heart.

Just block the blow!

The magic wave began to become stronger. Although this can indeed accelerate the generation of magic barrier, the loss of magic will also increase. If it was not in a critical situation, no magician would do so.

Seeing Wenqi's move, Sean had no intention to stop it.

In fact, with the speed he just burst out and his keen perception, he had time to stop when he noticed that Wenqi's magic began to fluctuate. However, Sean didn't do so. Instead, he deliberately stopped at this moment and let Wenqi successfully display the magic barrier before he shot. In the view of outsiders, this naturally reflects that Wenqi's reaction is fast enough to block his attack at the moment when Sean shot.

The old magician finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this behind the scenes.

Even Sean couldn't help being frightened by the terrible impact that had just erupted. When he was convinced of the successful formation of the magic barrier, he was convinced that Sean's blow would threaten Wenqi's life, so he was really relieved.

Others, including the nobles and soldiers, had a slightly regretful look in their eyes.

Except for one person.

Christina!

Christina, who inherited the flash sword technique, is also a famous swordsman with speed. In particular, she has completely mastered the flash soul chop, and the speed at that moment is far higher than that of Sean. So at the moment when Sean shot, Christina naturally saw more than others. Therefore, in her eyes, it was not others' regret, but a kind of shock.

Real shock!

”It turned out that when he competed with me at that time, he didn't do his best...”

In Sean's sword just now, Christina saw the shadow of flash soul chop. Although it was not real flash sword, it still belonged to the shadow of flash soul chop after all. Therefore, she really understood that the words Sean had said to her in the arena were not a joke. Similarly, as the most clear successor of flash fencing, Christina naturally saw that Sean stopped his hand at that moment, otherwise Wenqi would never succeed in exerting the magic barrier.

But why?

Christina couldn't understand it at all.

Then, as others saw, Sean's attack finally fell on Wenqi, who was sheltered by the magic barrier.

The silver white long sword was cut at Wenqi's neck without any tricks. The unique silver white Kendo track of the long sword brought out by the waving gesture and strength swept over Wenqi's throat from the right side of Wenqi's neck to the left.

Such a powerful force is simply beyond the endurance of a magician.

However, if it is normal, Wenqi must be directly cut off by Sean. However, due to the magic barrier, there were visible ripples in the air on the marks cut by the long sword. Although I clearly heard the light sound of broken glass and scattered starlight, the only thing I didn't see was blood. Similarly, I didn't hear the sound of broken bones. Naturally, I wouldn't see the scene that Wenqi's head was cut off.

The only thing everyone can see is that Wenqi flies out to the left like a sack thrown out, and then falls heavily on the ground.

Unfortunately, because of the magic barrier, Sean's blow did not cause too much damage to Wenqi.

After the magic barrier protected Wenqi from falling to the ground, it was finally completely broken and dissipated, and turned into countless starlight points.

Just at this moment, Wenqi did not look like a magician at all.

At the moment of landing, he immediately turned up. Although his skill was not like a soldier, it was also sensitive. At the same time, the right hand supporting the body on the ground also emitted a faint white with blue brilliance, a white fog suddenly emerged, the ground was quickly covered by ice at an amazing speed visible to the naked eye, and the area within a few meters turned into frozen soil in an instant.

The power of frost.

A small spell that has only level 2 but can often play an unexpected role in some places.

Sean had taken advantage of the momentum to rush forward. At the moment when he saw the white fog rising, he stopped abruptly and took a more cautious posture. But in his eyes, he was a little more surprised.

With Wenqi's strength, it's not difficult to silently send such a secondary magic. What Sean really surprised was the other party's fighting consciousness.

This little magic can only be started through physical contact, and the more and faster the urging magic, the greater and faster the scope, thickness and speed covered by frost. If Sean had continued to rush forward just now, judging from the magic consumed by Wenqi at present, nine times out of ten he would have fallen, and then his hard won advantage would completely disappear.

From this point of view of combat consciousness, Wenqi obviously has a lot of fights with warrior professionals, and has almost completely summarized his experience in dealing with different types of enemies.

This is what surprised Sean. Even though he had known that Wenqi had rich combat experience before, he still didn't expect to be so rich. In particular, Wenqi is still so young. I'm afraid he won't be more than 25 or 6 years old. Sean really can't imagine what kind of experience each other has to achieve today.

After all, Sean doesn't belong to the world.

When he came to this world, Sean already had a high sense of combat and experience, which he bought at the cost of countless deaths in the game. But people in this world are different. They don't have the ability to resurrect, so once they die, it's real death.

If we want to talk about the degree of danger, the magician in front of us can definitely rank first in the right hands of Sean. Even the silver and eagle that made Sean feel the threat of death at the beginning can't compare with the magician who only had upper silver. After all, even if the fighting consciousness of silver and eagle is not inferior to Wenqi, there is still a big gap in the proficiency of equipment and combat skills.

Seeing that Sean didn't continue to attack, Wenqi naturally stopped the continuous output of magic and got up.

The white cold fog began to disperse gradually and no longer rose, but the ground covered by ice did not change. With Wenqi as the core, there was still frozen soil within a few meters around.

The frozen soil made by magic is as smooth as a mirror, and even has the spell mark of the caster. If the melee professional wants to fight with the maker on such frozen soil, he must keep the dissemination of fighting spirit on his feet, otherwise he will fall on such frozen soil accidentally, so it will be very difficult to stand up again. At least, as long as a magician with a normal head and residual magic will not let his opponent stand up again so easily.

Sean glanced at Wenqi, casually waved his sword, chopped a few times, and smiled: ”consciousness is not bad, but it's a pity.”

Hearing Sean's obviously disdainful laughter, Wenqi sneered, and then wanted to fight back.

”Er... Ah... Er...”

But when the voice came out of Wenqi's mouth, it was not a complete and smooth sentence, but a hoarse single byte. No matter how hard he tried to speak, he couldn't clearly express what he wanted to say except making such a meaningless voice.

Soon, Wenqi looked at Sean in horror. His left hand was covered on his throat and rubbed gently. At the same time, there was a very strong cough. All this looks like phlegm choking in his throat. If he doesn't spit it out, it's difficult to speak. However, no matter how hard Wenqi tries, he can only utter meaningless syllables in the end.

”Don't waste your energy.” Sean smiled. ”My sword has hurt your vocal cords just now. You can't speak until you receive formal treatment.”

The smile without warmth fell into Wenqi's eyes at the moment. It was like a devil's ferocious smile, which made him cold all over. He retreated a few steps in horror, but the look on his face still couldn't accept the facts in front of him. He didn't want to believe or dare not believe that the sword that seemed to be blocked by him had such a terrible threat, which completely exceeded his expectation.

”Oh! By the way. ” Sean's voice suddenly spoke again, startled Wenqi again, ”I've always wanted to know one thing. I don't know if you can satisfy me.” He said so selfishly, but Sean obviously didn't intend to let Wenqi answer, because after the words fell, he soon continued: ”when you magicians chant incantations, you use your spirit to sense the existence of elements in space, and then use magic to activate elements through these incantations to form magic. Now that you have lost the power to sing mantra, do you know if you can launch those high-level magic? ”

Wenqi's pupil suddenly shrinks, and then he sees Wenqi's mouth opening and closing. He doesn't know what he's talking about, but it's not difficult to see from the action. At the moment, Wenqi's speech speed is very fast. But as Wenqi's lips closed faster, the sweat on his face became more and more obvious, and the color of panic in his eyes began to become more intense.

At this point, if anyone can't see the current situation of Wenqi, the people present will be idiots.

Wench, you obviously have lost the ability to sing mantra!

At this moment, the old magician immediately turned his head and looked at Sean, with an indelible shock on his face.

Similarly, as a magician and even as powerful as a wizard guide, he knows very well that the magician's so-called chanting mantra does not simply need to rely on sound. If all magic needs to rely on sound to perform magic, there can be no two powerful abilities that belong to magicians, instant and silent. The reason why magicians sing incantations is actually just a sort of magic array, which causes the resonance vibration of spiritual power, magic and elements - to put it bluntly, it is the resonance of frequency. In fact, this behavior is OK even without making a sound. What he needs is only the vibration on the vocal cords. This is why the magician can't easily perform the Dragon language magic and divine language magic, because the vibration mode of his vocal cords is very different from that of human beings. The reason why he makes a sound is just to make this arrangement faster and more accurate.

Even silent and instant, in fact, they all need to rely on the vibration on the vocal cord.

The so-called silence technique, which can block the ability of a magician, actually cuts off the relationship between the magician's vocal cord vibration and spiritual power, magic and elements, not making the magician unable to speak.

The reason why the old magician was shocked was that Sean's sword could play the effect of silence, which completely cut off Wenqi's mantra singing. Obviously, it is not something that ordinary people can do. And what the old magician knows better than others is that from the process of Wenqi's continuous attempt just now, he has found that Wenqi is not only unable to perform the magic that needs to be sung, but also unable to perform the magic of instant and silent!

Winky, you've completely lost your spell casting ability!

How did he do it!?

Not only the old magician, but also Christina has seen this.

She was shaking all over, not because of fear, but because of excitement!

Christina is also a melee professional. She also has an instinctive aversion to magicians. Moreover, Wenqi was so arrogant and arrogant before, which naturally makes Christina more disgusted with magicians. What Christina didn't expect is that Sean is so powerful, a warrior who can block the magician's spell casting ability. If this news is spread, it will definitely shock the whole mage world!

However, as the person who probably knows Sean's strength and skills best in the field, Christina also knows that it also needs the cooperation of the other party to let Sean use this means that can block the magician's spell casting ability.

Although Christina doesn't know how Sean did it, she can certainly know that this must be related to Sean deliberately stopping to let Wenqi display his magic barrier smoothly. Of course, the sword that swept through Wenqi's throat must also be very important. Now the only thing Christina doesn't know is that Sean obviously has the ability to kill Wenqi with one blow, but why should he abolish Wenqi's spell casting ability instead?

Christina doesn't understand.

”Boom!”

A sudden roar broke out again in the field.

The dull noise, together with the lights of the whole underground arena and the sand and stone suddenly scattered from the dome, finally drew Christina's attention back.

What came into view was that a huge pit with a diameter of more than five meters and a depth of more than three meters suddenly appeared in the field.

There were orange flames burning in the huge pit. Christina standing outside did not feel the threatening heat wave, nor did she see the huge plume rising into the sky. However, when she glanced at these flames, she felt a kind of fear in her heart. She knew it was an instinctive sense of danger. With her strength now, she still felt this terrible smell from these flames, which was enough to prove that once she was contaminated by these flames, she would lose a layer of skin if she didn't die.

Thinking of this, Christina immediately looked for Sean in the arena.

Although the scope of the arena was large, there were only two people on both sides of the competition, so Christina almost saw Sean with a sweep of her sight.

At this time, Sean has pushed Wenqi back from the frozen soil. The long sword in his hand turns into a violent storm and mercilessly stabs Wenqi, but it is a pity that he is only one step short of hitting Wenqi every time.

In everyone's eyes, although Wenqi hid in a mess, and even couldn't fight back, and he couldn't use the magic barrier to protect himself because he lost his spell casting ability, Sean couldn't do anything for Wenqi for a moment and a half. It seems that Sean's speed began to slow down after the powerful blow just now. From this point of view, the soldiers and guards of several other nobles around have agreed that Sean's extremely terrible explosive power just now is obviously a secret skill. Slowing down at the moment is a kind of price payment.

”It seems that it will be difficult for Viscount Fran to solve him.” Patricia sighed slightly. She was already worried about how they would get the drawing if Sean missed it.

”No, No.” Christina has been keeping an eye on Sean. As a swordsman with excellent speed, her agility is also not low, and the resulting dynamic capture ability is naturally second only to Sean among all the people present. Therefore, Sean's shot may be dazzling in the eyes of others, and can only see a silver shadow of the sword, But for Christina, there is no such problem at all. She can even clearly see all the moves of Sean.

”What do you mean?” Patricia turned her head and looked at Christina. ”What's wrong?”

”Viscount Fran didn't do his best!” Christina said in a deep voice. Although she also thought that the strong sword that Sean broke out at that moment should also use some kind of secret skill or forbidden skill, according to the strength shown by Sean now, it obviously can't be raised. This sudden situation makes Christina firmly believe that Sean didn't do his best at the moment, ”he's... Teasing his opponent!”

Just then!

As if to prove the correctness of Christina's words, the silver dead bone suddenly bloomed a silver brilliance.
