Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

After another exchange of sword lights, taking advantage of that momentary gap, the puppet once again thrust the sword horizontally at the captain, but this time, the puppet used not a simple one-time straight-line attack, but almost a second. It was launched without any help, ten consecutive thrusts that reached the limit.

Faced with this unique sword-thrusting technique from Western Europe a hundred years ago: "Ten Stars Flash", the captain launched the same technique without any fear.

"Ouch!!!!!!"

"Ouch!!!!!!"

Amid the passionate roars of the two men, the sword tips of both sides stabbed the opponent's sword tip with incomparable precision every time. Sparks danced like little stars in every thrust of the two men.

When the sword tips of the two sides collided for the tenth time, the two of them changed their postures almost at the same time. While bending down and raising their swords, they rushed forward and slashed towards the opponent's waist. They used a move that was also Kiana's. A move that has never been seen before, the secret of Tai Swordsmanship from a certain niche school in the Far East: "Waterfall Cuts off the Flow."

Amidst the harsh sound of metal collision, the two men completed the exchange of positions in an instant, and slightly distanced themselves with their backs to each other. The next second, the air flow generated by the sword strike exploded violently from between the two men. It spread out and quickly dispersed around with the snowflakes.

The short black hair and hems of their clothes were fluttering violently under the influence of the air current. After a very brief moment of stillness, the two sides immediately turned around and continued to fight with high-speed sword strikes.

"Okay, so awesome..." Kiana couldn't help but exclaimed.

For Kiana, this is a wonderful duel that she has never seen before. With the help of superb fighting consciousness and exquisite sword skills, every sword swung by both sides is fatal to her. threaten.

But whether it was the captain or the puppet created by Sirin using part of the captain's memory that she had stolen, they all defused the opponent's attacks time and time again, making this fierce battle happen right in front of Kiana's eyes. It actually gave her the illusion that this battle would last forever.

However, this is not the case. If you look closely, you will find that compared to the evenly matched match at the beginning, after a period of stalemate, the captain is now obviously attacking more often, while the puppet who was constantly launching fierce pursuits at first is now more aggressive. Many will start to lean towards defense.

In other words, he was forced to defend for some reason.

In fact, after a period of fighting, the captain began to deliberately increase the strength of his sword swings, and at the same time, the slightly rough attacks that forced the opponent to receive them head-on became more and more frequent.

He had already found the key to victory, and the increasingly harsh metal clashing sound when the two swords met was a sign of this.

As the captain had expected, unlike the "God Key" in his own hand, the "God Key" in the hand of the puppet in front of him was essentially an ordinary weapon with the same "power". Siren's small mistakes in details eventually led to the puppet gradually falling behind in a battle that was supposed to be equal.

Every harsh impact sound that penetrates the eardrum means that the long sword in the puppet's hand is producing the same vibration response as an ordinary weapon. Even if you are used to the numbness and pain caused by the violent vibration of the sword body, it will have a negative impact on the hand holding the sword hilt. The burden is also real.

Under normal circumstances, since this effect is mutual, and people who are accustomed to fighting with hand-to-hand combat are accustomed to this pain, this usually does not become the main factor affecting victory or defeat.

But unfortunately, the puppet created by Siren is now facing an opponent who can completely defeat him as long as the opponent makes the slightest mistake.

Xilin, who had been focusing on the battle between the two, seemed to have noticed the abnormality of the battle situation. Jianzhi was too busy dealing with the puppet's offensive to pay attention to her, and a despicable thought began to appear in her mind.

"..."

After confirming that the man's eyes were not on her, Sirin quietly gathered strength in her hands, and a sharp black spear quickly formed behind her.

Just as Xilin was about to launch a sneak attack on the boy, a pistol flew over unexpectedly and hit the back of her right hand where she was gathering strength.

"!?"

The sudden blow made Sirin panic. She looked closely and saw the white-haired girl in the distance who was still throwing the pistol, glaring at her fiercely.

"You guy, you can't even think of attacking the captain while I'm here!"

"...Tsk."

Siren clicked her tongue in displeasure, but immediately, she started thinking again and looked at the puppet who was fighting fiercely with the captain with a weird smile on her face.

After once again parrying the captain's slash, the puppet began to move and adjust its position intentionally or unintentionally. After a dozen moves, it seemed that it had found a suitable angle, and the puppet began to concentrate on defending against the captain's attack.

The captain noticed something subtle in this, but the other party gave him little time to think. The puppet suddenly held swords in both hands and blocked the captain's frontal blow with all his strength.

This excessive force of counterattack inevitably caused the sword in the captain's hand to be knocked away a little wider, and at the same time, it also created an extremely short gap for his next blow.

Taking advantage of this gap, the puppet turned around in an instant and completed its turn counterclockwise to charge up, then half-knelt down and slashed vertically downward with a sword. The moment the sword tip touched the snow, a powerful purple crescent-shaped sword energy also followed. The sword blade just scratched the distance and flew forward.

The sword energy passed by the captain who was dodging sideways, and flew straight behind the captain's shoulder. Reflected in the young man's dark eyes, in the direction of the sword energy, the white-haired girl who had no time to react was standing in the same place. On the ground, he stared blankly at the fatal blow coming towards him.

"Eh?"

This instant sword skill created by the captain: "Moon Cage Sha". The sword energy struck by "Moon Cage Sha" finally directly hit Kiana's position. When the sword energy hit, the air flow detonated instantly made everything disappear in the air flow. In the rolling snow and fog.

And at the same moment, the unfinished sword energy dispersed into dozens of sharp airflows, further cutting the snow mist and everything in it. The snow mist dispersed in an instant, revealing the two figures inside.

"..."

The black-haired boy stood in the position where Kiana was just now with a sword. Although he did not suffer any trauma on his body, the shoulder and hem of his coat were torn open by the sword energy, and were ripped open. The white-haired girl he was protecting behind him was safe and sound.
