Mount & Blade: Wind of War

"Duke Rhodes, in less than four months, the price of grain has increased twenty times. It is too difficult to accept."

"Let's put it this way. My Hoffman Empire will provide you with a batch of secret cultivation methods to ensure that your warriors will be much stronger after cultivation. As for the price of grain..."

Business is business. Due to diplomatic etiquette, it is impossible not to see the ambassador of the Hoffman Empire. At the banquet, Rhodes and the young foxes opposite were drinking and talking happily. Both sides seemed to be very happy.

However, when the young fox noble Grievous talked about the price of grain, Rhodes, who had drunk a lot of wine, raised his head at this moment, his eyes bright, and looked at Grievous. In an instant, the young fox noble could not continue to speak.

Because at this moment, he knew that it would be meaningless even if he continued to speak.

"The Duke has a far-sighted vision. This operation has only gained a hundred years of accumulation for the Lonely Mountain Castle, but it has also provoked a terrible opponent for himself. I don't know whether it is worth it or not." Grievous raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, saying so.

"The foundation of a power is development, not diplomacy. I never expect to get what I can't get on the battlefield at the negotiation table. Because from a historical perspective, it is destined to be a self-humiliation."

"The swordsman behind you is good. Why not let him compete with my knights? If he wins, I will only increase the price of this batch of grain by ten times as you said, but if he loses, the grain will cost twenty times as much, and I also want the secret method in your hand."

"Since the Duke is so interested, how dare I refuse? Fokar, go and experience it."

"Yes."

"Fatis, go and experience the strength of the Hoffman warriors."

"As you say, Duke."

Griffith is an extremely handsome young noble, even from a human aesthetic point of view.

And the green-skinned ancient orcs, at least in Rhodes's opinion, are a little indistinguishable in appearance, and they seem to look not much different.

The human swordsman Fatis and the beast warrior Fokar walked to the center of the relatively spacious venue. Fatis took out his shield sword, while Fokar used a long pole weapon similar to a mace.

"Please."

"Please teach me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fokar rushed forward.

Fatis drew out his long sword slowly but quickly, and gently drew a circle around himself.

The next moment, the circle became bright, revealing a sacred light, completely covering Fatis who was ready.

Fokar was wrapped in a strong dark red fighting spirit flame, and every attack with the dual-wielding maces was powerful.

Extraordinary third-level warriors dare not easily burst out fighting spirit like this, because fighting spirit reserves are not much, and they often have to fight and test before bursting out suddenly, defeating the opponent in a short time.

At the beginning of the battle, the ancient beastman warrior Fokar directly burst out fighting spirit flames to improve his own attack and defense speed, and it is obvious that he has no worries about exhausting fighting spirit.

Compared to his opponent, Fatis's fighting style is very consistent with his personality. He fights very steadily and calmly. He only slightly reveals the holy fighting spirit, but with the shield and sword in his hand, he can steadily block the attacks launched by the ancient orc warriors from all directions.

"Lord Rhodes, Fokar's fighting spirit is best at long-term combat. If your knight continues to defend like this, he is probably doomed to lose."

Across the banquet, the fox youth said this with a smile while drinking continuously. It seems that he is reminding Rhodes and Fatis, but in fact he has sinister intentions.

Rhodes copied Fatis's insight characteristics with his own wisdom, and with the advantage of being a bystander, he can see that the other party is not lying.

Although the ancient orc warrior Fokar was wrapped in dark red flames, he actually cultivated a kind of earth attribute fighting spirit, which seemed to be able to absorb the essence of the earth endlessly, increase strength, restore physical strength, bless attack and defense, and have the ability to heal injuries, and even use the essence of the earth to launch powerful moves...

However, the fox youth on the opposite side said such words, not to remind him, but to disturb Fatis's mind and increase his psychological pressure.

Masters fight each other and fight for every inch. If such a psychological offensive is launched by an outsider, once it is calculated, it will certainly affect the combat effectiveness.

"There are many excellent fighting spirit techniques in the world. Your set of mental skills is excellent, but Teacher Fatis's mental skills are not necessarily inferior."

Cresse's mind was affected by Grievous, and he couldn't help but argue.

However, Grievous ignored the kitten with bared teeth and claws, and just drank blindly, while observing Rhodes's expression. Unfortunately, he was disappointed. Rhodes still watched the battle in the field with interest.

Compared to the earth-attributed fighting qi technique, sacred fighting qi is also known for its tenacity, strength and strong resistance. However, this requires the practitioner to be in harmony with the fighting qi method, so that it can exert its amazing power. Therefore, the lower limit of bright fighting qi is very low and the upper limit is very high. Most people can neither reach the upper limit nor touch the lower limit, which instead makes bright fighting qi be evaluated as mediocre in power.

In fact, in the hands of a person like Fatis, even the simplest light fighting spirit definitely has the potential power that exceeds most fighting spirits in the world, because Fatis himself is extremely powerful, not to mention that the holy light fighting spirit mentality is definitely the best in the world. Therefore, the outcome of this battle was determined from the beginning.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Accompanied by the sound of huge weapons colliding, Fatis had fought with the ancient orc warrior Fokar for more than fifty moves in a flash.

Grievous was not a warrior and he could not understand, but Rhodes saw it clearly.

Every time Fatis and Fokar clashed, his shield and sword would vibrate slightly, thereby dissipating the enemy's attack power. This is really a very clever and subtle technique.

And slowly, Fatis also began to turn defense into offense. In fact, Fatis's strength is more than one level higher than his opponent, but most famous generals basically have this problem, that is, when fighting, they often like to defend first, observe the opponent's approximate strength clearly, and then solve the opponent.

This battle was the same. After the two sides fought for more than 80 moves, the ancient beastman who was known for his protracted battles and practiced advanced earth attribute fighting spirit could no longer bear it. His fighting spirit mental method and accumulation could withstand such operation, but his body could not bear it.

Fighting spirit is a very fierce and violent energy. Under normal circumstances, the physical load of the caster is very huge, not to mention that he has to keep changing moves and fighting hard at this moment.
