Path of light

Chapter 76 77. Complete victory

What Adams never expected was that Roy did not even raise his shield when faced with the epee thrust out by Adams.

He ignored Adams at all, and the hammer in his hand hit Steve who was trying to get behind him.

Adams was forced to change his tactics, took a step forward to block the wooden hammer with his sword, and said to Steve:

"Leave Roy to me!"

After saying that, he swung the heavy sword again and slashed diagonally at Roy's punctured shoulder.

And Steve also adjusted his steps and rushed towards Claire, handing out the military thorn in his hand at this moment...

Steve thrust almost with all his strength, and the stabbing saber turned into a white light in his hand.

At this time, Claire came forward without showing any signs of weakness, and the long dagger in her hand was swiped horizontally towards Steve's throat.

Neither of them could dodge the other's killing move...

And Steve was fully confident that he could poke a bloody hole in Claire's body before Claire put her long dagger on his neck.

There was an exclamation in the stands.

But just at this moment, a wooden hammer appeared diagonally in front of Steve.

Roy's wooden hammer actually stopped in front of Steve.

If Steve's stabbing saber was not withdrawn, it would definitely hit the wooden hammer.

This forced Steve to rush to the side to avoid the full blow of the wooden hammer.

He passed Roy's mallet, and relied on his speed advantage to narrowly avoid Claire's 'throat slit'.

The long sword in Adams' hand struck Roy's shoulder, and the chainmail dented suddenly...

A flash of blue light appeared again in the depression.

Adams fully thought that even if this sword could not cut through the chainmail, it would still be able to smash Roy's shoulder blades. Unfortunately, the moment the epee fell on his shoulder, the arm was like a slippery loach, and the epee was not affected at all. Slide out with force on your back.

Although the Blessing of Sanctuary helped Roy avoid the sword, Roy, who was hit by Adams' sword, was very uncomfortable at the moment and felt a sharp pain in the shoulder holding the log shield.

Roy groaned.

He could barely lift the wooden shield in his hand.

Steve, who was stopped by Roy, pounced on Claire again.

Claire quickly jumped up and dodged, stabbing the long dagger in Steve's abdomen.

Roy yelled: "Claire, now!"

As soon as his voice fell, a ball of holy light that had been hidden in the log shield suddenly flew out. Under Roy's control, the holy light suddenly appeared in front of Steve's face.

Although the light was not dazzling, at such a close range, it almost completely obscured Steve's sight.

Steve felt a ball of light suddenly appear in front of his eyes, and his eyes were completely white.

The mallet in Roy's hand hit Steve's sword-holding wrist, sending his stabbing saber flying away, and the shield that then hit him slammed into Steve's face.

Even though it was a log shield, it came into close contact with Steve's face at high speed.

Steve's head was immediately hit by the shield and tilted back to the right.

Claire had already followed. She originally wanted to stab Steve in the lower abdomen with the long dagger in her hand. Seeing him throwing his head back and falling out, she pressed her wrist down slightly. The long dagger had no edge. He penetrated hard into the thigh wrapped in leather armor pants.

The long dagger pierced the light leather armor and made a bloody hole in Steve's thigh, which also caused Steve to fall to the ground hard.

Adams was too late to rescue Steve, and the epee stabbed Roy in the back of the heart...

Roy seemed to have a pair of eyes behind him. Just a second before the heavy sword stabbed his back, he turned around suddenly and the heavy sword almost slid out against his back.

Adams saw the sword thrust into the air again, and pressed the hilt of the sword with all his strength with both hands holding the sword...

In an instant, the heavy sword changed direction, and a full thrust turned into a sweeping sweep.

Roy had no way to avoid it and was hit in the left rib by the epee.

The chainmail armor on Roy's body was torn open, and there was only a shallow mark on his exposed ribs.

Claire had already pulled out the long dagger at this time and turned to face Adams...

Roy, who was wearing chainmail, also stood up with difficulty, holding the mallet in his right hand. The faint light floated on Roy's left shoulder again. His left arm holding the shield could no longer be raised at all, but he responded to Adams. A smile of victory.

…

At this moment, the elves on Steve's side of the stands stood up one after another.

They ran to the guardrail of the stands and looked at Steve lying in the arena with concern.

At this time, instructor Nora had rushed to Steve's side, checked his injuries, and after seeing the bloody hole on his thigh, announced that Steve was out.

Although Steve was unwilling, he did not argue...

The elves couldn't understand Roy's fighting style and protested loudly:

"What is this? Why are the priests in the temple still going to the Elf Academy?"

"He just used magic..."

The stands opposite were in chaos...

The stands on Claire's side burst into cheers.

…

Roy stood up again, and Claire and Adams trapped Adams in the middle.

Although Roy could no longer lift his left arm, he still waved the wooden hammer provocatively twice and moved towards Adams step by step.

"Give up the struggle and let yourself lose decently, Adams..."

Roy was still speaking sarcastically.

Roy and Claire did not take the lead in attacking.

Adams suddenly realized that Roy was regaining his strength, so he attacked the injured Roy first.

Adams judged that Roy was wearing heavy armor and not only had difficulty moving, but his shoulder was also injured at the moment. As long as Roy was knocked out with a sword, there might not be a chance for a comeback in this duel.

But he got it wrong again...

Just when Adams thought that Roy's left arm was unable to fight and slashed a sword towards Roy's left side, Roy actually raised his wooden shield to block Adams' heavy sword.

The swordsman poet relied on his own strength to suppress Roy throughout the whole process, without any poetic sword moves.

Instructor Nora was seen shaking her head repeatedly...

Adams obviously had outstanding swordsmanship, but he was lured by Roy to hit him repeatedly from the beginning of the battle. In the end, he couldn't even see such an obvious 'lure'.

Roy blocked Adams' sword with his shield, and hit Adams on the chest with the wooden hammer in his hand.

One blow almost took the life out of Adams...

Claire, who was waiting for an opportunity, moved closer again. At the moment Adams leaned back, he locked Adams' neck with his arms and pressed the long dagger in his hand against his chest.

Instructor Nora immediately appeared next to the two of them, reached out to grab Claire's wrist, and raised his hand holding the long dagger high...

"Clare and Roy win!"

Instructor Nora announced loudly.

After hearing Instructor Nora's announcement of victory, Roy sat down on the ground, threw away the wooden hammer in his hand, and rubbed his almost unconscious left shoulder with his hand.

Claire walked up to Roy holding a long dagger, and first high-fived him to celebrate the victory...

Then he bent down to check his injuries and helped him take off his heavy chainmail.

The effect of the 'Stone Skin Technique' on the two of them has not disappeared. Roy, who took off his chain mail, was only wearing a linen shirt, and the exposed skin was covered with rock patterns.

His left shoulder was first stabbed by Steve with a stabbing saber, and then hit by a heavy sword. In addition to a scratch, there was also a large bruise.

The wound was bleeding a lot.

"how do you feel?"

Without waiting for Roy to answer, Claire took out a bottle of tree of life sap from her waist, pulled out the cork and tried to drink it for Roy.

At least Steve and Adams are doing the same thing at the moment.

This time Roy blocked all the attacks from the two opponents, and Claire had the opportunity to eliminate both of them...

Roy blocked the tree of life sap handed over by Claire, motioned for him to cover the cork, and reluctantly said with a smile:

"I think I can try wearing plate armor next time. Chain armor can't block thrusting sabers, nor can it block blunt weapons... Adams's heavy sword is completely used as a blunt weapon. I feel like I have lost feeling in my left shoulder. ”

"Drink this, your injury will heal faster..." Claire said to Roy.

"No need to waste it like this, I have it for free!"

Roy pointed at Jasper and Abbott who ran down from the stands and said proudly.

"Roy, I think you have opened up a new idea for our trainee priests. It seems that it is not impossible to fight in heavy armor..."

As soon as Jasper came down, he said to Roy excitedly.

Abt also said with excitement:

"That's right, I plan to try it when I go back this time, but I don't know if the chain armor can block the mental attacks of the dead."

At this time, instructor Nora walked up to the two of them, said, "The tactics are not bad!" and turned around and left.

Claire’s friends ran down from the stands and congratulated Claire!

There are also people who keep asking Claire about Roy’s identity...
