Almighty Alchemist

In front of the castle gate, Bateson pointed his sword at Xiu Yi: "Choose your weapon."

"To deal with you, I don't need that thing, this is enough." Xiu Yi's attitude was a little lazy, shaking the small dagger in his hand.

He really can't get too interested in dealing with opponents of this level. The only problem is that he can't reveal his true strength. This made him have to think of some tricky ways to deal with his opponents, but in fact he thought of it very quickly.

"You are looking for death!" Bateson was angry.

He raised his sword and stabbed Xiu Yi.

In his opinion, this sword was stabbed fast and hard, completely in line with what a sixth-level warrior should be. The energy of fighting spirit was so close to the opponent that he could easily kill this kid.

What he didn't expect was that in the face of such an attack, Xiu Yi showed a strange smile on his face.

He suddenly turned to the side, reacted quickly and quickly, and dodged behind a stone statue next to the castle gate.

Originally, according to the normal habits of samurai, this sword only needs a sweeping sweep to easily cut into the opponent's body. It doesn't even belong to the next sword, but only a basic change of the first sword.

However, at that moment, when Bateson saw the stone statue of the four-winged tusk beast, a rumor suddenly flashed in his mind-the building of the Misty Castle is not allowed to be damaged by anyone.

If my sword cuts across, I'm afraid it will cause some damage to the statue. He didn't know if such damage was within the allowable range of the castle circle, but if the answer was no...

Startled, Bateson hastily drew his sword and retreated. This imposing sword was forced to end after only half of the sword was pierced.

Looking at Xiu Yi again, he had already stood behind the statue, looked at himself with a smile, and said with a disdainful voice: "One sword."

"You despicable bastard!" Bateson immediately understood Huey's intentions.

Obviously, he wanted to limit his swordsmanship by taking advantage of the fact that the buildings here were not allowed to be destroyed. Once he was too aggressive and accidentally damaged the buildings here, he must be the one who fell on the ground.

The crowd erupted into applause, obviously they also saw Huey's intentions, but unlike Bateson, many people did not think this was a despicable act.

It is a dishonorable act for a sixth-level samurai to challenge a young man who has not practiced before, but for a young man to take advantage of the right time and place to fight calmly is nothing more than a perfectly legitimate act.

Someone even cheered: "Hey Bateson, what's up? Come on!"

This annoyed Bateson greatly.

He walked around the statue for a few steps, and Xiu Yi also took the statue as the center of the circle, keeping a straight distance from him.

"I'm going to kill you!" Bateson yelled, and he couldn't bear it any longer.

The long sword stabbed at Xiu Yi again from the side, Xiu Yi's performance was extremely slippery, he almost flew close to the statue of the four-winged tusk beast. Bateson's second sword looked like it could hurt Xiuyi as long as it scratched the statue's skin, but as soon as he thought of the terrible rumor in his heart, Bateson's sword couldn't help but hesitate.

With just this delay, Huey once again escaped Bateson's attack.

"You still have one last chance to attack, sir." Xiu Yi continued to provoke.

Bateson took a long breath, looked at Huey and said coldly, "You don't have to be so proud."

As he spoke, he put his left hand on the back of the statue.

When stabbing the second sword, he clearly saw that Xiu Yi's body brushed against the statue, causing a certain degree of impact, but there was no reaction. This means that as the rumors say, if it is just a simple touch, it will not trigger any attack from this magic circle.

This gave him a way to deal with Xiu Yi.

The next moment, he exerted a little force on the hand holding the statue, and his whole body flew into the air. Bateson jumped directly over the tall tusk-toothed beast statue, stabbing Xiuyi in the air.

This blow was like an eagle hitting the sky, with a chic posture and fierce momentum, Bateson never believed that there was any way for Xiu Yi to dodge it.

However, just when the long sword was about to hit the opponent, his eyes suddenly blurred, and he lost the trace of Xiu Yi.

Slightly startled, the body vacated by the power of the left hand had a wonderful hovering. This is the unique ability of sixth-level warriors, and it is the result of their control over power. However, at the moment when his body hovered for a short time, it seemed that some force pulled his feet suddenly, and Bateson's whole body fell down.

This frightened him pale.

He couldn't be sure that when his body hit the statue heavily, it would be judged by the castle as an attack on the building, trying to lose his center of gravity, and he absolutely couldn't take that risk.

The body tried hard to reverse the direction of the fall. The original posture of the goshawk pounced on the rabbit, but because of this unexpected change, it turned into an action of accidentally climbing over the wall and falling like a dog eating shit.

If the world were to know that an imposing sixth-level samurai does not even have the ability to turn over a statue, it might shock the world's jaws. Who would have imagined what kind of twists and turns Bateson went through and what kind of simple choices he made in the process.

But no matter what, Bateson, who had lost his center of gravity, fell down without any suspense at this moment. Since he would inevitably touch the statue, he didn't even dare to use his fighting spirit to protect himself.

This fall made him dizzy, and his arms and waist were even worn away by the rough surface of the statue.

At the same time, the disappearing figure reappeared, and a sharp cold light approached his eyes.

Huey's cold voice sounded next to his ears: "Look, Mr. Bateson, you lost. Your three swords failed to kill me, but instead delivered yourself to my hands."

Bateson stared blankly at Xiu Yi, his eyes were emitting a strong killing intent. The sharp little dagger was pressed against his eyelid, and judging from his tone and the cold look in his eyes, he didn't mind stuffing the knife into Bateson's eye socket at all.

At this moment, the eyes of Master Cersada Daniel, whom Bateson saw, were filled with indifference to life.

Bateson was horrified.

What he has always dealt with is just an ordinary family heir, an ordinary civilian who knows nothing and doesn't understand anything. But at this moment, what he felt was a crazy cold-blooded person.

Anyway, he is also a sixth-level warrior, and he has enough ability to feel what is a joke and what is the truth.

Completely instinctive, he yelled: "I admit defeat!"

It wasn't until the words came out that he realized what kind of impact these words had on him.

Among the crowd watching the battle, there was a huge buzzing sound, and everyone had an expression of disbelief on their faces.

No one could believe that the best heir of the dignified Banister family would lose to a young alchemist who knew nothing.

It's incredible.

———————————

Although Bateson himself didn't see how Xiu dodged his attack, the onlookers could see clearly that at the moment Bateson jumped up, Xiu Yi seemed to have expected the opponent's movement, and directly lowered himself and hid under the four-winged tusk beast statue. When Bateson fell, Huey jumped out and was pressing on Bateson's body, his movements were coherent and done in one go. Everyone applauded Xiu Yi's wonderful reaction.

But no one saw why Bateson fell.

No one noticed that Xiu Yi had already muttered something in his mouth before hiding in the statue, and people only thought he was talking to his opponent.

A little vortex gravity created by a little wind magic trick did it all.

Of course, it was not this little gimmick that really defeated his opponent, but Bateson's scruples and timidity about rumors.

He couldn't even display the fighting power of a junior warrior, so he was subdued by Xiu Yi.

When letting go of Bateson, Huey was very careful, and Relejesa rushed to Huey's side to protect her.

But Bateson's tutor looked pretty good, and he didn't launch a sneak attack after the opponent let go.

But the way he looked at Xiu Yi was full of anger and unwillingness.

This was supposed to be a day for him to show his might and teach his opponent a lesson. Even if he couldn't kill him, he should humiliate him well.

But the result was that he suffered the most tragic defeat in history, and even shouted the words of admitting defeat under the threat of the opponent.

Such an insult is not only his own, but also the entire family.

"This is not over yet! Sissy Darnell. You defeated me, but you lost your entire future. The Banister family will not let you go, and I will challenge you again. At that time, you will no longer have the opportunity to use these little tricks to win me. I swear, I will definitely kill you!" Bateson yelled at Huey.

That may be the only way for the loser to regain his dignity.

"Please don't swear so cheaply, Master Bateson. I also swear that I may die under any circumstances, but I will not die at your hands." Xiu Yi said lightly.

According to the dueling rules of the empire, if the losing side survives by chance, the winner is eligible to refuse the opponent's duel request within one year, because the refusal in this case is no longer because of fear of the opponent.

For a year, Huey didn't have to worry about Bateson harassing him in the name of a duel, but he knew that other members of the Bannister family were likely to continue to challenge him to a duel.

He suddenly realized that he had made a mistake.

That is, in the process of building the Dardanelles, he neglected to give the identity of Sisser some self-defense capabilities.

Although Hugh Igles is currently a fifth-level warrior and multi-line magician, and his overall combat power is no less than that of any high-level warrior, Sisser is still a fragile young man.

And this identity will still play many important roles in the days to come, so it is necessary to add some protection chips to this identity.

At the very least, the character Sisther Darnell must have the ability to protect himself publicly in front of everyone, which is not the ability of Xiu Yiglaer.

how should I do it? Xiu Yi's flexible brain began to rotate rapidly again.

—————————

Bateson left under the eyes of sympathy and contempt.

The dance started as usual.

Everything that happened just now seemed to be just an insignificant episode.

Even though the Bannister family has a prominent status in the empire, even if their family has a powerful and famous sanctuary powerhouse, for the visitors, they still have to enjoy what they should enjoy.

They didn't even worry about Xiu Yi - anyway, even if this young man didn't die in the hands of Sanctuary, he would die in the alchemy tower sooner or later.

What people talk about is Huey's deft and deft dodge when he evades Bateson's attack for the last time.

Mr. Dodge patted Xiuyi on the shoulder and said: "You know, Sisser, your reaction is very quick. Although I am not a warrior myself, you know that there is never a shortage of high-level warriors in the firm. I often watch them practice, and I have learned a lot about the way of warriors. There is no doubt that you have a talent suitable for cultivation. Your limbs are very flexible, sensitive in movement, and quick in response. If a teacher can train you more, maybe you will soon be able to become an outstanding warrior."

Xiu Yi's eyes lit up: "Oh, you mean I have the potential to become a warrior?"

"Of course, to be honest, I don't object to you learning this well. It's good for your safety. And it may divert your attention from that tower." Mr. Dodge said with a smile, "I like your persistent pursuit of alchemy. As long as you don't take risks, you can talk about anything else."

"So you can introduce me to a good samurai?"

"What Winnington lacks most is a strong man." Gene Brett interjected.

"Then maybe you can introduce me to a good teacher." Xiu Yi said in innocent and enthusiastic words, as if he had been looking forward to such an opportunity for a long time: "I don't know how long it will take to practice to become a sixth-level warrior."

The dwarf Malloy laughed loudly: "Cultivation is very difficult. In theory, if you endure hardships, you can become a fourth-level or fifth-level warrior as long as you go through a one-year extreme training method, but after that, it will be much more difficult."

"So fast?" Xiu Yi's eyes were filled with a look called "naive".

"Oh, don't listen to him, use the extreme training method for a year, my God, it will kill you. No one can stand such a toss. Take your time, don't worry. It's better to spend some money to find a few capable nursing homes." Mr. Dodge said.

"But in the face of a duel, the Nursing Academy can't intervene."

Viscount Ladour immediately said: "On this issue, I suggest you learn from a guy named Hugh Iglell. As the most famous wanted criminal in the empire, he is about the same age as you. He is also an alchemist, but he perfectly integrated alchemy into battle. He made many alchemy props suitable for use in battle. If you can make similar props, you will also become very powerful."

"I've heard of this name." Xiuyi's voice became more childlike: "It's a pity that if he can, I won't, but if I can, he won't. You are right, Viscount Ladour, maybe I should learn from this terrible monster. The problem is that I don't have the technology in my hands."

As he spoke, he looked towards the tall tower in the distance: "Maybe there can give me some alchemy that I need... that can be used in battle."

This wonderful performance touched everyone.

The girls all stared at Xiu Yi, they felt that this young man was indeed of good quality and had extraordinary courage.

For Xiu Yi's behavior of wanting to explore the tower, people who had previously held a disdainful attitude expressed their understanding at this moment.

Facing an enemy that is difficult to defeat, it is better to go through an unpredictable danger. If you can get a harvest, you can not only get rid of the current murderous intention, but even let yourself soar into the sky.

And judging from the boy's quick-witted performance, maybe he can really solve the mystery of Electra's magic circle.

But Mr. Daoqian insisted that Xiu Yi not be allowed to do that.

He talked a lot, and he didn't feel relieved until Xiu Yi swore that he would never enter the tower at least in the near future.

Raschel, who is not far away, has been watching all this with cold eyes since the duel invitation began.

Especially when Huey dodged Bateson's volley, he watched very carefully.

The light in the old hound's eyes kept flickering, staying on Xiu Yi's body for a long time, refusing to leave.

He didn't leave the castle thoughtfully until the ball was over.

Even before leaving, he still couldn't help but look back at the tall castle hidden in the mist.

He suddenly felt as if he had seen the outline of this castle somewhere.

Vaguely, it was on that small island.
