Chapter 738 Fierce Battle

 Along the way, Duanmu Huai also received some literacy lessons from Ma Xiu, and he actually learned some about the characteristics of heroic spirits. For example, among the seven levels of heroic spirits, SABER is the strongest on average, RIDER is mainly about mobility, CASTER is good at spells, ASSASSIN is good at assassination, ARCHER is good at long-distance attacks, BERSERKER has gained the strongest attack power at the cost of losing rationality, etc.

 According to the two people, the two heroic spirits he killed before seemed to be LANCER and BERSERKER.

How to put it... Duanmuhuai would say...

 Somewhat interesting, but not very strong.

 That's right, even BERSERKER, in Duanmuhuai's opinion, is below the level of a Chaos Egg. In the final analysis, that's it... Basically, he can break his wrist with his own night guard, and then there will be nothing more.

 As for the twelve trials and so on...who cares.

　　It is not difficult to kill it twelve times.

 Forget about Duanmuhuai, just throw these heroic spirits to the continent of Faerûn. There are too many people who can take care of them.

In the final analysis, it is because the civilization level of this world is just stuck at this point. If it develops further, once it leaves the earth and enters the universe, with the advancement of science and the development of civilization, the power of individuals will gradually increase. Although These servants' little tricks seem to be a little interesting, but they are just a little interesting.

The blue-haired man's fireball couldn't even break through Duanmuhuai's power armor.

 This is technology crushing.

So after killing two heroic spirits in a row, Duanmu Huai also came to the conclusion that this so-called heroic spirit might still be a bit of a threat to immature technology or the magical world, or to a fledgling civilization that has just stepped into the universe. But if it encounters a mature The magic and technological civilization has only a dead end.

I don’t know if they can be upgraded. If they can’t be upgraded, it’s a bit useless.

The only thing that makes Duanmu Huai feel interesting is these heroic spirits and the Hall of Heroes. According to what Ma Xiu said, he always felt that it was very similar to his soul card. Could it be that the so-called Hall of Heroes is also a soul fragment? Since it is said that getting the Holy Grail can make your wish come true, why not just give me the Hall of Valor?

On the contrary, the blue-haired man and Ma Xiu were quite shocked by Duanmu Huai's extraordinary fighting power.

 “Hello, miss.”

Walking behind Duanmu Huai, the blue-haired man came close to Ma Xiu and whispered.

“I’m not sure, but are all the masters of your era so good at fighting?”

 “No, that’s not the case, senior is just an exception.”

"This is really a strange exception. The murderous aura and fighting spirit coming from that guy have never been seen in my time. It would be understandable if he was a heroic spirit, but a master can kill two people easily. There are three heroic spirits, including BERSERKER, who is best known for frontal attacks... If I hadn't been able to feel the command spell on him, I would have thought he was also a heroic spirit."

 “Ahahahahaha……”

Hearing the blue-haired man's words, Ma Xiu didn't know what to say for a while. After all, Duanmu Huai's combat power was beyond her imagination. Although Ma Xiu had now become a sub-server, she was sure that even if she was He is also no match for Duanmuhuai...

 “Cang!”

At this moment, Duanmu Huai, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. A soft sound sounded from his helmet, and then everyone saw an arrow falling to the ground.

 “That’s enough, it’s that shameless **** **** again, right?”

Duanmu Huai touched his head and was almost going crazy. He hated the **** flying a kite in the distance. Although his attack couldn't break Duanmu Huai's defense, it was just as annoying as mosquitoes.

 “Leave that ARCHER guy to me.”

Just when Duanmuhuai started to think about whether to set fire to the mountain directly, the blue-haired man spoke.

“SABER is located in front of you. You will arrive there after you enter.”

At this time, everyone discovered that there was a dark cave not far in front of them. Although they could not see anything inside, they could feel the strong magical atmosphere coming from inside.

"Oh, right."

Holding the staff tightly, the blue-haired man turned his head and looked at the cliff in the distance.

“Finally, let me give you a small extra service, which is the true identity of SABER.”

"Why?"

Hearing the blue-haired man’s words, Matthew’s eyes widened in surprise.

 “Do you already know SABER’s true identity?”

“Ah, that’s right. As long as you are a heroic spirit, you will definitely recognize that guy’s Noble Phantasm after seeing it. It is... Excalibur, the world-famous King of Knights, King Arthur’s side sword.”

 “What, it’s actually King Arthur?”

Hearing the answer from the blue-haired man, Ma Xiu was shocked, but Duanmu Huai... showed no signs of any change.

 After all, he was not familiar with King Arthur, so it would be good to know that there is such a person.

 Besides, foreign heroes have nothing to do with him, right?

 “Then, let’s go!”

As soon as the words fell, the figure of the blue-haired man disappeared into the air in the blink of an eye, and Duanmu Huai and Ma Xiu also quickly rushed into the cave.

But then again...

“So what if I know that guy’s name? Isn’t he King Arthur? What’s the big deal?”

Looking at the serious expression on Ma Xiu's face, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but ask in confusion, while Ma Xiu shook his head.

"This is different. Senior, heroic spirits need to conceal their real names. Because their deeds are very famous in history, their weaknesses are naturally recorded as well. As long as you know their real names, you know them. Weaknesses..."

“So what? I don’t know what King Arthur’s weaknesses are, so why don’t I go find a spear and stab him to death?”

Duanmuhuai complained.

“Don’t worry about so many things. They are just unknown people on a small island. Just kill them and that’s it. Why do you think there are so many things?”

It's just King Arthur. If you randomly pick any famous general from the Three Kingdoms and who is not better than him, just brag. To put it bluntly, the island country is not so poor and sparsely populated. For thousands of years, there have been few famous figures. As long as they are caught, they will be praised. Like those idiots in the West who either play Napoleon or Caesar. There are only a few people who go back and forth. What does it mean?

 It shows that they have a poor history. It is pitiful that there are only so few famous people in thousands of years. Not to mention that King Arthur is just a legend and does not really exist. Who knows what kind of monsters and monsters are in it.

While talking, the two of them had already passed through the passage and came to a wide cave. In the center of the cave, a huge, crater-like thing appeared in front of Duanmu Huai and Ma Xiu. , shining with purple magic light.

“What the **** is this, a glowing hot spring?”

"oh………?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and then the two of them saw a petite woman wearing dark armor and holding a long sword appear from above, staring down at Duanmu Huai and Ma Xiu in front of them.

 “It’s really an interesting combination of Master and Heroic Spirit.”

　　　…………”

However, looking at the girl in front of him, Duanmu Huai was speechless.

 “Hello, Matthew.”

 “What’s the matter? MASTER?”

Matthew raised his shield and looked at the woman above nervously, then responded.

 “Is the King Arthur in your legend a woman?”

"How is it possible? The legendary King Arthur is indeed a man..."

"How do you think they are all women? Could it be that this person is also imitating Hua Mulan and has been in the army for more than ten years and no one can tell that she is a woman? Isn't that an exaggeration?"

Duanmu Huai looked up and down at the woman in front of him carefully.

Hmm, that’s right, it’s indeed a woman, right?

 “Forget it, it doesn’t matter.”

Although Duanmu Huai was a little surprised that King Arthur was a woman, it was only for a moment. The next moment he raised his warhammer and pointed it at SABER.

"I am a feminist. If a man can be beaten, a woman can be beaten as well. Prepare to die!"

 “Then it depends on whether you have the ability!”

 The next moment, the battle started.

 In the dim cave, Duanmuhuai and SABER were fighting.

Duanmu Huai's fighting style was as wild as ever. Guarded by power armor, he didn't care about the long black sword in the opponent's hand. He just waved the thunder war hammer and smashed it down again and again at the petite girl in front of him, as if in front of him. It's like playing a whack-a-mole or smashing a nail, with no mercy at all. The strong winds and shock waves brought about even made the earth tremble and crack, as if it reminded people of a pouring mountain torrent, which was irresistible.

SBAER, on the other hand, held the long sword tightly and circled in this violent cyclone. However, in the moment of the confrontation, the offense and defense had been reversed. Duanmu Huai did not care about SABER's weapons at all, and blindly attacked SABER completely suppressed SABER's momentum, directly It hit her so hard that she couldn't lift her head.

"Amazing………"

At the moment, Ma Xiu, who was beside him, could only stand here blankly, watching the battle in front of him, unable to take his eyes away. Originally, she should have gone up to fight and cooperated with Duanmu Huai to take down the enemy in front of her. But Matthew couldn't join in at all. In fact, there was no room for her to intervene in the duel between the two. Even if she joined, it would only be in the way. For the first time, Matthew felt her unwillingness. Obviously she Now is the sub-servant, the one who should stand in front of the Master, shield him from wind and rain, block attacks, and guard his shield.

 But now, she has become an obstacle. Instead of doing what a follower should do, she can only stand aside...

"drink--!"

SABER swung his long sword and deflected Duanmu Huai's blow, then quickly stepped forward. The long sword in his hand burst out with amazing magic power, turning into a roaring torrent and blasting towards Duanmu Huai.

 “It’s useless, go die quickly!”

In Duanmu Huai's eyes, SABER's violent torrent of magic power was no different than the breeze blowing on his face. He didn't even have the intention to dodge, so he just smashed the magic power burst of SABER with a hammer, and then blasted it out with a backhand hammer, and SABER At this moment, she hurriedly raised her sword in front of her, but even so, she still flew high into the sky like a golf ball that was knocked away.

 “Little mice running around.”

Looking at the SABER in front of him, Duanmu Huai's expression darkened slightly, and then he turned his eyes slightly.

　　By the way, use this trick.

  SABER turned around again in the air and then landed downward. However, to SABER's surprise, the moment she landed, the ground beneath her feet suddenly cracked, and then a sharp spear made of solidified earth and stone suddenly emerged from it and stabbed directly into SABER's chest. !

 The majestic spear!

 “Woo————!”

This sudden attack also surprised SABER. She hurriedly slashed the hard spear with her backhand sword, and then used her strength to dodge backwards. However, at this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared, falling from the sky and covering SABER. Duanmu Huai raised his war hammer and smashed it down with all his strength. This time, SABER finally had no way to avoid it, and had to raise his spear in front of him to face the coming attack. !

 “Boom!”

The thunder hammer hit SABER directly in the chest, knocking him to the ground. Earth and rocks flew up, and then SABER rolled and flew out. She didn't even have time to adjust her posture before she hurriedly jumped up again, avoiding another nearly fatal bombardment by Duanmu Huai.

But unfortunately, this was not the case, because the next moment, the violent explosion fireball completely swallowed SABER, causing her to fall to the ground again wailing.

 Seeing this, Ma Xiu was shocked.

 “That’s...magic??”

Although it is not surprising that Duanmu Huai, as the Master, can use magic, but... is this true?

Looking at the battlefield in front of him, Ma Xiu felt that it was extremely unreal. Duanmu Huai had already summoned him with his magic and war hammer, and the attack left no room for SABER to dodge. To be honest, Matthew had never thought that Duanmu Huai could actually use such powerful magic. You must know that SABER is resistant to magic, and ordinary magic cannot break her defense!

But the senior was actually able to defeat SABER in both magic and close combat at the same time...

 “Boom!”

 At this moment, the battle also came to an end.

Duanmuhuai didn't give SABER a chance to distance himself. Once SABER stepped back, he would immediately use magic to restrict the opponent's movement, and then rush over to engage in close combat. Faced with Duanmuhuai's menacing attack. SABER finally couldn't hold on any longer, and Duanmu Huai knocked the long sword out of his hand with a hammer. Then the next moment, Duanmu Huai roared and swung the war hammer in his hand hard!

"boom!!"

The earth trembled suddenly, and the dark swordsman became the soul of Duanmuhuai's hammer.
