Chapter 729 Reflection
"Kana... is she that strong?"
Erza propped herself up tremblingly. She was still in the gravity field. She didn't know how much force was pressing on her silver-white armor, which was not light to begin with. Her hands and upper body were shaking constantly.
However, there was no anger on her face or in her eyes, only surprise - surprise at her companions' growing strength, and also surprise at the unexpected direction of this battle!
“This is really…”
"It's so cool, right?" Kira's voice came leisurely.
Just at this moment!
Erza suddenly jumped up from the ground, and the instant burst of power broke free from the invisible gravity field. Then in the blink of an eye, she crossed a distance of several meters and slashed at Cana!
clang--!!!
The heavy metal sound spread throughout the venue!
"What?!"
Erza was startled by the strange touch. She didn't expect that her move could be blocked. But there was clearly nothing in front of Cana, so how did she block her move?
However, before she could figure it out, she saw the sword in her hand suddenly turn and attack her head-on!
The Heavenly Wheel Sword is of normal length, only slightly longer than Erza's arm, so when Erza attacked, she was only about an arm's length away from Cana, and Cana's unknown defense was some distance away from her, so when the sword chopped down, the distance of the reverse slash was less than two feet. Coupled with Erza's fast attack speed and strong force, this rebound can be said to be very dangerous!
whoosh——!
In a flash, the moment the sound of breaking air was heard, Erza's pupils shrank, and her waist bent to the side. At the same time, she withdrew the arm that was originally swinging the sword, and leaned forward in an almost dancing posture to avoid the sword.
He put away the sword, turned in the air, and kicked upward with his right leg!
The Heavenly Wheel Armor is equipped with silver-white iron boots. The boots, armor and sword are made of the same material, refined and forged from an alloy of fine iron and silver. They are extremely hard. Erza has been using this armor for many years and is already very familiar with it. If this kick hits, it will be enough to kick Cana dozens of meters away and end her duel.
But Erza's inconspicuous kick was also blocked by the invisible shield. She could feel as if there was a powerful force pulling her legs to kick in another direction.
Without time to take a closer look, Erza quickly retracted her legs. She had already completed a spin in the air. The previous attack had a follow-up move. After turning around in the air with the same dance-like move, she used the gravity of her body to chop down again!
clang--!!
The iron sword was blocked for the second time, and it turned back and attacked Erza for the second time!
But this time Erza was prepared and responded more calmly. She also saw clearly the defense in front of Cana and the distance of the defense. She withdrew the attack with a slight pull of her arm, then stepped back to create distance between herself and Cana.
Erza's three consecutive attacks were as fast as lightning. From jumping up from the ground to retreating, the whole process took less than three seconds. Among the wizards she knew, only a handful could react in time, and Cana was definitely not one of them. However, she relied on her turtle-like defense and blocked it all.
It was not until Erza retreated and stood still that Cana's brain belatedly followed up. Although she saw Erza's attack with her eyes, her body could not react at all. Fortunately, she had made preparations in advance, so she was safe and sound. Otherwise, Erza would have defeated her in just one encounter.
Thinking of this, a drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead unconsciously: "As expected of Erza..."
After she finished speaking, she thought of another thing: "By the way, the sword you just used was sharpened, right? You weren't really fighting with the intention of killing me, were you?!"
Erza looked serious: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
This doesn't seem like a proper way of looking at it! !
At this moment, Erza's attention was completely focused on the invisible shield in front of Cana: "Is this the card you used two days ago? It has the same effect as Mistgang's Mirror Water?!"
Speaking of this, Kana instantly perked up and said with a bright smile: "This is the Phenomenon Card [Reflection]!"
"It's the same type of card as the [Gravity] that just acted on you, and the [Inversion] that acted on Mira!"
"Reflect?" Erza's eyes flashed, and she was eager to win. The corners of her mouth curled up with a hint of fighting spirit, "Then let's see how far you can reflect it!!"
"Heavenly Wheel·Dizzying Sword!"
Under command, the swords behind him seemed to have souls and began to attack Kana from all directions in a chain. Suddenly, the sound of metal collisions resounded throughout the arena, and a large cloud of dust was also created.
Kana's 'Reflection' has a much wider range than Mistgang's 'Mirror Water'. Mirror Water can only block one side, but Reflection can provide 360-degree defense without blind spots.
Under the influence of the [Reflect] card, Erza's sword attacking Cana began to rebound, and a good attack became a means for Cana to counterattack. Under 'self-attack and defense', the Sword of Chaos finally ended a round of attack.
When the smoke and dust cleared, countless swords were either stuck or fallen, lying densely in a patch, but they were all three feet away from Kana, and not a single one could get through.
Although she was protected from the rain of swords, Kana did not feel happy. She looked to the other side and saw Mira finally standing up shakily.
"Erusa alone is hard enough to deal with, and adding Mira to the mix will really make it difficult for me..."
Kira muttered softly, and his figure appeared in his peripheral vision. He waved at Kana, "This is just the beginning! You don't want to back down, do you? This is an important battle that will determine your future reputation!!"
Kana suddenly realized: "That's right! This is an important battle to prove my strength! How can I be afraid?" Without hesitation, she waved her hand and activated the two cards [Gravity] and [Inversion] again!
yesterday……
Kira left Zeref and just returned to the hotel when he ran into Cana who was playing cards. He was surprised for a moment: "You actually have the mind to play this?"
Kana retorted unhappily: "I'm not playing! I'm just thinking about how to fight tomorrow..."
Since the opponents for the next day's battle have been confirmed to be Erza and Mira, Cana is now racking her brains to think of how to deal with these two people.
But when Kira briefly understood her plan, he found that her fighting style had a big fallacy. Although it cannot be said that eating is Yituo's defense, it can be basically foreseen that it will be useless.
"Your fighting method is too old-fashioned. It's OK against guys like Natsu, but Erza and Mira are experienced old...mages, they can see through it at a glance!"
"Your use of magic is too crude, and the same goes for your use of cards. It's as simple as just picking up a stick and swinging it at someone! This way, your talent can't be activated at all! No wonder your strength always improves slowly!"
"You have to know that this set of [Kana Cards]... don't feel ashamed! What is there to be ashamed of?!... Ahem, this set of [Kana Cards] is different from any of the ones you've used before. It is designed by combining the strengths of both, as well as your current situation. You can no longer use the previous method to drive it!"
"Well, you learn my fighting skills..."
After two hours of Kira's guidance, Kana suddenly had an epiphany and her spiritual enlightenment was awakened. Although there was no change inside, her overall strength had improved by leaps and bounds due to the improvement of her skills. She grew from a doll who could only count with her fingers to an elementary school student who could use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
"How is it? Do you feel much stronger now than before? Do you have the confidence to fight two people alone tomorrow?"
"Are you an idiot? How could you possibly do something like that?!"
Cana said as a matter of course, "Although those techniques can indeed make me stronger, there is no way I can beat Erza or Mira in one day, let alone them working together!"
"You must be the main player in this game, and I will be the supporting player in the back!"
Even though she knew she should be getting stronger, Kana still had no confidence in her abilities without practice.
So Kira began to stir up trouble: "But according to my guess, the two of them will definitely attack you first tomorrow! Because you are weaker and easier to target. When you can no longer stand up, they will join forces to deal with me!"
What?! How could such a thing happen?!
Cana's face changed drastically, and after thinking about it for a while, she felt that what Kira said made sense.
"So if you can't handle Erza and Mira on your own, you will definitely be defeated by them tomorrow. Then even if I win the game, this duel will have nothing to do with you. Even if you have become stronger now, you will still be regarded as a weakling and the weakest S-class wizard! Is this really okay?"
“…”
"How about this, if they really team up to attack you tomorrow, how about you try to fight two of them at once? Of course, I won't help you in this process, but use this crisis to stimulate your potential and treat it as training for after this breakthrough."
"Well... okay..."
today……
As soon as the battle began, Erza and Mira attacked Cana first, just as Kira had expected.
Kana was anxious and angry: "How can you do this! We are all good sisters, why do you have to do something so embarrassing? You all have to defeat Kira in the end, can't you just fight Kira directly? If you feel that you don't have enough manpower, I can help you! ! "
"There's no other way. Let's just fight one against two! It's just a good opportunity to see what I can do now!"
Now……
On defense, [Reflection] works on his entire body, blocking everything, even Erza's Dazzling Sword cannot break through;
In terms of offense, [Gravity] [Reversal] acts on the opponent, exerting a huge force while disrupting the opponent's perception, making it lose its combat capability.
Seeing Erza and Mira being suppressed again in the two fused magic fields, Cana was surprised that she could activate three cards at the same time, and was also surprised at the effect of Kira's set of cards.
"This set of cards... is much more useful than the previous ones!"
