Chapter 418: Considerations after the Competition
cut!
Gu Sanqiu raised the heavy sword with one hand and chopped it towards Noel's head. Although the stone slab under Gu Sanqiu's feet was not damaged at all, the sound of breaking air had already reminded Noel that the power attached to this sword was definitely not low!
Buzz——
The classic and familiar rock element "must use shield in fight" routine appeared. A shield rose up around Noel, and he raised the Zephyr sword above his head, intending to block the sword from the front!
"Confidence in strength, that's a good idea ."
Seeing this, Gu Sanqiu subconsciously retracted his strength.
It’s okay. There is not much difference from the Noelle in my impression. At least in terms of strength, this maid knight does not lack confidence.
More likely, she was worried that her uncontrolled power would cause trouble for everyone.
This worry will gradually expand to other aspects, causing the person to lack self-confidence. As time goes by, it will turn into an anxiety that is close to obsessive-compulsive disorder, and it will also limit Noel's ability to exert his strength.
This isn't a life-and-death fight, but an exchange of ideas and guidance. He has to be careful not to affect the girl's rare self-confidence.
boom !
The ground sank and rocks flew everywhere. Even though they held back, the fight between the two men surprised everyone else on the training ground.
"continue."
Gu Sanqiu swung the sword in his hand so tightly that it was impenetrable, or rather, the field formed by the sword energy completely enveloped Noel without any blind spots.
Barbara rubbed her eyes, and several people who had stopped training and watched nearby made the same gesture, making it seem as if what the other person was holding was actually just a light feather.
But Noel, who was in the center, didn't think so. Each of his attacks was powerful and merged with the sharpness of the sword.
Not only does he have to raise his sword to block the actual heavy sword attack, he also needs to continuously input rock elemental power to maintain the shield on his body to prevent his defense from being broken by the sword energy.
This can't go on!
Noel's eyes became sharp. If he continued to play like this, he would inevitably fail in defense.
Although she didn't think she could win, losing under such circumstances was not her intention!
"ha!"
Noelle shouted softly, and the huge force of rock element broke the sword energy field swung by Gu Sanqiu. Then he pulled back and held the heavy sword in his hand steadily with a straight grip.
The elemental power of rock began to spread and gradually condensed into the heavy sword. The West Wind Sword was gradually stained with a hint of golden color.
"Well, the charging time for the move is a bit long. It's easy for others to seize the opportunity."
Gu Sanqiu closed the distance and swung the heavy sword in his hand again, stabbing straight and accurately hitting Noel's shoulder!
when!
The sword collided with the armor, but Noel didn't even take a step back. Instead, he raised a shield from the inside out again, shaking off the big sword on his shoulder.
"Mr. Sanqiu, be careful!"
Noelle let out a delicate cry, bent over to retract her sword, then swung it fiercely forward, drawing a crescent-shaped golden sword energy on the field!
"As solid as a rock."
The rock ridge shield rose up, Gu Sanqiu put away the big sword in his hand, and chose to use the shield to take the blow!
"teacher!"
Barbara exclaimed. She didn't expect Gu Sanqiu to make such a choice. She had also seen Noelle's strength. If the other party got serious , even the best players in the Knights would admit that it would be difficult to defeat him.
boom!
The elemental resonance of the rock element itself turned into ripples that spread in all directions. The stone slabs on the ground and the green plants not far away all let out wails of being overwhelmed.
Even some onlookers were blown up by the sudden resonance and were in a panic in the sky.
"The wall is thousands of feet high."
Gu Sanqiu's calm voice sounded, and rock ridges rose from the ground one by one to show their strength, eliminating the resonance fluctuations brought by the battle.
The smoke and dust cleared, and the elemental power returned to the world. Only then could people see clearly what was happening in the center of the battle.
Gu Sanqiu walked over and extended his hand to Noelle: "You fought well. At least from your strength and character, you are qualified to become a Knight of Favonius."
"I really don't deserve such praise, sir."
Noelle's face flushed, then he reached out his hand to lend some strength, and then he stood up steadily.
"Teacher, what on earth were you doing just now? You scared me to death."
Barbara ran over to the two people, stretched out her hands, held down the man and woman, and treated their injuries.
"Just treat Noelle's sword wound on her shoulder. We're not seriously injured."
This is the battle between users of rock element. To be more precise, it is a phenomenon that often occurs in friendly exchanges. Basically, no substantial damage can be inflicted.
Shield is not a skill, but an instinct ingrained in the bones of the owner of the Rock Elemental God's Eye. Even if a person is very bad at developing elemental power, he will choose to use shield when encountering an enemy.
You can also understand it as something similar to the warrior's instinct. No matter what deck the opponent has, you can stack armor first. Anyway, you won't lose.
Gu Sanqiu looked around and saw that the influence of Noel and Barbara, the two Mond citizens' attraction machines, was indeed not small.
"Let's talk somewhere else if you don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of people."
Noelle hesitated. "But, the training ground has been destroyed by us, shouldn't we help first?"
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "There is a limit to helping. The training ground is damaged and needs maintenance. This is their job. It would be inappropriate for you to help."
Barbara squinted at Gu Sanqiu and said, "But, ordinary training damage is not like what you teachers did. You almost demolished half of the training ground."
"Don't worry, I have already thought about this problem."
Gu Sanqiu snapped his fingers and said, "I 'll leave them a deposit, and then they can ask other odd jobs to come and help. This way, they will definitely be able to help more people."
Of course, he also wanted to take a look at the people doing odd jobs to see if there were any golden retrievers. Doing so might give him a strange sense of pleasure for some unknown reason.
Barbara noticed something was wrong: "Deposit? Who should I ask for the subsequent money?"
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "That must be Mr. Kaia, the captain of the cavalry squad of your Knights of Favonius. If that doesn't work, he can still go to the Dawn Winery to borrow it."
As a foreign traveler, it is reasonable to seek help from local friends who work in relevant departments when something happens, right?
It's you, Kaia-san! (Thumbs up)
Westwind Church, Albert Corner.
This Albert Corner was naturally a name that Gu Sanqiu casually gave, because the opponent was sanctioned by him last time when he was standing in this place.
Gu Sanqiu said: "You have superb swordsmanship, steady steps, and a good character. Apart from some academic style, there is little I can teach you."
"You have already cultivated the sword energy and are able to integrate it into the rock element to attack. Not many people with the Eye of God can do this."
Forget about Yaya, she is indeed gifted.
Gu Sanqiu continued, "If you want to eliminate the influence of the academy on your fighting style, then go and observe the fighting styles of those treasure-stealing groups and bandits. It's also okay to fight with them more often. When bandits and thieves fight, some of their methods are really dirty."
…
Gu Sanqiu glanced at Noel's legs. Gang Damu's physical condition had fully recovered. The incense burner who noticed this scene was thinking about a more serious idea in his mind.
Do you want to teach me something real?
He has extraordinary physical strength, is a rock element, and has the determination to work hard and strive to move forward. His determination is also excellent.
Teach her something real, and pass on some methods on how to use the power of the earth veins in conjunction with the rock element.
Anyway, Mond must have this kind of thing. With Noel's qualifications and hard work, it is only a matter of time for him to reach that level. Teaching him first can be considered a favor.
As for more advanced things, it's not impossible, but in order to train Mond to be a future unparalleled general, Venti should at least give him an extra 10 or 20 pieces of turquoise, right?
Contract and Equivalent Exchange
When that time really comes, Mond will have a rock-type general holding a heavy sword, and an all-round general with maxed-out life skills. Not only can he launch a sweeping and crushing attack on the enemy, he will also be the dream lover of the people of Mond.
As long as I stand on the earth, I will not be defeated!
