Chapter 378 Katarina vs Galen
At this moment, Garen was almost a human-shaped tornado.
The blades that Katarina and Tyrone stabbed at him were deflected out of control by the sudden strong wind. Even their bodies were caught off guard and trapped in the turbulent tornado.
They were swept up into the sky by the storm out of control and soon crashed into the wall of the narrow hut.
"Shadow of Demon!" Leblanc reacted in time and dodged the sudden gust of air with a flash.
But the "Phantom Chain" she threw far away to Garen was ruthlessly thrown away by the tornado that was swirling around Garen at high speed, like a solid wall of steel.
"This..." Leblanc's face looked very bad.
It wasn’t because of Garen’s strength, but because: “You are also a leader?!”
"Yes." Galen replied calmly: "Now I am also a leader."
As he spoke, he raised his arm and slowly opened his palm in the direction of the greatsword.
Then, the heavy Storm Sword was slowly lifted up by an invisible airflow and "flew" back to Garen's hand.
Obviously, this is the power from the goddess Janna.
"..." Leblanc was silent for a while.
"Commander Lanfu?" Tailong looked at her tentatively, waiting for her next order.
"..." Leblanc looked at Garen with hatred, and said decisively: "Retreat! This guy is the leader, our actions are meaningless. And..."
Moreover, the leader can ask the goddess for help through prayer. This guy's support is probably on the way.
If they were delayed any longer by Galen, they might not be able to leave.
"Don't even think about escaping!" Garen obviously knew what he needed to do now.
He completely ignored Demacia's anti-magic laws, controlled the sharp wind, and swung his sword at Leblanc.
"Don't get in the way!" Leblanc had no interest in getting entangled with him.
She waved her hand to dispel the meaningless spell barrier, and fled to the building opposite in a flash.
Seeing this, Talon immediately followed closely, while Katarina was abandoned by LeBlanc as a pawn.
"Katrina, you stay here and cover us!" Leblanc gave this last order and instantly disappeared from Garen's sight.
Galen instinctively wanted to chase, but...
"Flash step!" Katarina flashed and stood in front of Garen.
She stabbed him in the face, almost piercing his brain with one blow.
"Courage of the Wind!" Garen condensed air currents into a shield and narrowly avoided the fatal blow.
"Can't catch up..." Looking at Leblanc and Talon who had disappeared, he felt annoyed.
But in the sky not far away, I saw a man surrounded by blue birds, slowly falling with the wind.
"Is that... President Levi?" Garen was immediately relieved.
Levi will deal with Leblanc, so he only needs to deal with the controlled Katarina.
"Be careful, don't get distracted!" Suddenly, a delicate voice sounded in my ears.
At the same time, there was a sharp whistling sound as a sharp blade pierced the air.
Garen suddenly came to his senses. He instinctively dodged to the side, avoiding the vicious backstab, only to find out:
It was Catalina who attacked him, and it was also Catalina who reminded him.
"You..." Garen realized something: "Is it you, Kana?"
"It's me," Katharina replied.
While swinging her knife at Garen with the fiercest force, she explained helplessly: "That guy should not be in the mood to control me now, so I can speak now."
"But my soul still cannot escape her influence, and I can't resist her orders."
While speaking, Catalina did not delay at all.
She appeared in front of Garen in an instant, forced her way into the inside of his sword where it was difficult to defend, and then, at this dangerously close distance, stabbed him hard in the heart.
The blow was extremely deadly, but Garen remained calm.
Because he knew that Katarina couldn't hurt him.
This is not because Garen is blindly confident, but because there is indeed a gap in strength between the two.
After all, from the move they had fought before, it could be seen that Katarina's skills might not be worse than his, and her "level" should be about the same as his, but -
Garen can now ride the storm.
This is equivalent to having a "little Janna" attached to Garen, giving him an extra set of skills and an extra mana bar.
However, Katarina's soul is bound by Leblanc's magic, unable to exert the magical power of the Wind Leader's faith.
How does a hero with 4 skills beat a hero of the same level with 8 skills?
Not to mention, their equipment is different.
Garen is now holding the Storm Sword blessed by the legendary angel Kayle, and wearing the Invigorating Armor made of refined rune steel, which is considered a national treasure of Demacia.
In order to hide her identity, Katarina had only worn a Zaun student uniform with a cool short skirt and stockings, which was neither convenient for hiding weapons nor for physical movement.
She only had this one knife with her.
What's worse is that in order to flirt and lure her prey, Leblanc even took off her shoes, leaving her with only a pair of slippery bare feet wrapped in black stockings - which greatly delayed the explosion of her foot power.
How could Katarina, who didn't even have shoes, defeat Garen, who was fully equipped with divine equipment?
Galen thought so, but...
"Resurrection Monsoon!" At the moment the blade just touched his chest, a burst of fierce air suddenly burst out from Garen's body.
Katarina's fatal attack was easily neutralized, and the blade in her hand was also knocked away by his sword. Her body was also blown by the strong wind and she almost lost her balance, so she had to stagger back.
So, her knee-length plaid skirt was also blown away by the strong wind...
Galen: “…”
Although he was not hit by any attack, he seemed to be bewitched from a distance and stood there unable to move.
Katarina barely managed to stand still, with no weapons in her hands. But under Leblanc's orders, she could only continue to attack without stopping.
She used the same trick again, moving closer to him in an instant, and then raised her bare foot, which seemed weak and powerless but was actually extremely powerful, and kicked Garen in the face.
"..."Galen was stunned again.
The kick landed solidly on his big face, sending him flying backwards and smashing through the thin wall behind him like a cannonball.
"You?!" Catalina continued to attack uncontrollably, and spat with an unpleasant expression: "Why don't you hide?!"
"I..." Galen blushed.
He also didn't expect that Miss Kana's short skirt and stockings were the real divine outfit.
The equipment has its own control effect, who can resist it?
"Shameless!" Catalina was about to curse again.
But...Galen tore a piece of cloth from the armor belt and covered his eyes.
"You..." Katarina had taken advantage of the kick and picked up her weapon from the ground.
Seeing that Garen covered his eyes, the annoyance in her voice disappeared instantly: "What are you doing?"
"This is to avoid being rude in front of you, Miss Kana." Galen answered seriously.
"You..." Katarina's eyes were complicated: "Don't underestimate me, Galen."
"I am Noxus's finest assassin. Fight me blindfolded, and you'll probably die."
"I will try my best to survive." Garen just smiled and said, "It is said that the wind leader can listen to the wind and determine the position. I just want to give it a try."
"Want to try with your life?" Somehow, Catalina was a little angry.
Especially after seeing Garen's current performance:
He said that he could tell where something was by listening to the wind, but his movements became noticeably slower after he was blindfolded.
Previously, he could handle Katarina's attacks with ease, but now he was struggling and having a hard time coping, as if she would stab him in the chest at any time if he was not careful.
Obviously, Garen had just mastered the ability of the Wind Leader. He had been used to fighting the enemy with his eyes since he was a child, and he obviously couldn't adapt to the Wind Leader's fighting method of listening to the wind and determining the position.
In a life-and-death battle between masters, this unfamiliarity and lack of adaptability could very well be fatal.
"That's enough!" Catalina shouted angrily.
"Don't joke with your life. At worst..." She blushed as if talking to herself, mumbling in a low voice: "I'll let you watch out."
But Galen only said: "Kana, I told you that I want to take you seriously."
Katrina: “…”
The battle continued, but the atmosphere became very subtle.
The two were clearly fighting each other to the death, but their expressions and eyes were filled with warmth and ambiguity.
"Katerina." Galen even chatted with her as if they were on a date: "That's what the woman just called you. This is your name, right?"
"Yes." Catalina nodded: "My name is Catalina, Catalina du Cocao."
"From the Kekao family? I see. No wonder, I always feel that we are very similar." Garen just sighed.
"Aren't you surprised?" Catalina asked, "I am the daughter of your old enemy."
"Because it's not important." Galen smiled with relief: "No matter what our identities were before, we are all comrades now, and..."
"Anything else?" Catalina raised her eyebrows.
Galen was inexplicably embarrassed again. He asked nervously, "Katerina, can I ask you something?"
"Did that woman force you to say those things to me outside the cinema? Or did you think so yourself?"
"I..." Now it was Catalina's turn to be embarrassed.
The previous confession of love was just Leblanc's mission.
As for how she felt, whether she liked the man in front of her...she had never thought about this question carefully.
"Hmph!" Catalina simply didn't answer.
Her face turned red and she flew over and kicked Garen again.
At this moment, Leblanc's mental control over her suddenly lost its effect.
Katarina immediately withdrew her attack, made a difficult turn in the air, and then... landed steadily below, and Garen opened his arms.
Garen took off the blindfold and looked at the red-haired girl in his arms.
Catalina also stared at him blankly without struggling.
At this time, Galen looked directly into her bright eyes and asked anxiously, "Katrina, was it you who kissed me at that time, or was it..."
"Of course it's me!" Catalina spat without thinking.
“……” There was a subtle silence.
Galen smiled: "I know your answer, Katarina ."
