Ryan's Sword

Chapter 6 Act [-] debut
"Congratulations to 'Steel Hammer' for completing the kill! Two consecutive victories!"

The iron cage was opened, and amidst the exclamations and shouts of the audience, the corpse of a soldier with a crushed head was dragged out of the iron cage with an iron hook by the staff on the sidelines, spreading a bloody red carpet on the ground.

"The following is a rookie who will challenge our king tonight - Steel Hammer! Will this mysterious rookie become the No.3 victim tonight, or will he counterattack and become the new gladiator king What! Everyone, let us wait and see! Please—Black Wing!”

Following the provocative words of the host, Ian calmly walked out of the channel dedicated to the contestants and stepped into the iron cage.What's worth mentioning is that the miserable corpse of the loser, who was no longer human, was dragged away by the iron hook beside him. He cast a flat look at this, without any emotion.

Ian knew that an unknown pawn like himself had long been classified as first-class waste by the organizers of the underground arena. Only a giant like Steel Hammer, who had an impact both in appearance and strength, was what they looked for. cash cow.It can be seen that the purpose of this corpse deliberately passing by him is to interfere. If it is a newbie who is currently on the stage, facing the tragic situation of the bloody corpse, even if he has a certain strength, he will definitely not be able to 100% play out.

As Ian entered the arena, another round of betting started in the auditorium.With the previous two victories as a reference, the audience, stimulated by blood and death, of course bet on Steel Hammer without hesitation. Only a few people with the mentality of picking up the loopholes bet on Ian to win.

Although the bets of the two sides did not meet the expectations of the organizers, the game still started as scheduled.These shrewd businessmen will not be concerned about the gains and losses of a single game. As bookmakers who can control the odds, as long as someone bets, they will always be able to make a steady profit.

Putting these aside, the two sides in the field have already taken out their own weapons.Compared with Ian who was holding a long sword, the steel hammer with two long-handled warhammers was simply a meat-grinding machine.The strong man, nearly two meters tall, stared at Ian with deadly eyes, and said in a thunderous voice: "Black Wing? A name I've never heard of. This is not where you should come."

Hearing this, Ian raised his hand and took off his hood, revealing a face covered with a black veil.Since the opponent is not in a hurry to start the fight, then he has no intention of rushing to attack.

"Yeah, I shouldn't have come." Ian nodded and said, "But there's no other way, it's just to make ends meet."

"Cut..." Steel Hammer snorted, "Boy who hides his head and shows his tail, come over here. If you wait for me to come over, then you will have no chance."

"Oh? Then..." Ian tilted his head, "I won't be polite."

A friendly meeting suddenly turned into a life-and-death fight.

Ian charged forward with his sword in hand, like a whirlwind blowing from the ground, he rushed in front of the steel hammer in the blink of an eye.Facing the blade that was piercing his heart, Steel Hammer was only surprised by Ian's speed, then he casually swung the hammer and smashed it towards Ian's long sword with the sound of howling wind.

"The power of the iron steps..."

The weapons of the two sides collided, and Steel Hammer was surprised to find that the opponent was not knocked down by the hammer as he expected. On the contrary, a force full of resilience was transmitted from the war hammer. While catching the blow, Taking advantage of the situation, it bypassed his front, drew a bright sword light like a full moon, and slashed towards his neck.

"This is!"

——Full Moon Slash (E)!
Ian casually used the active skill unlocked in Ryan's Military Swordsmanship (C). The full moon-shaped attack brought the opponent's tall body of nearly two meters into the attack range.This is one of the most commonly used moves in the army sword style, and it is a good choice whether as a test or a starting move.This move has a good bonus to the determination of strength. Even if Ian's strength of 18 points does not meet the standard of the iron level at this time, if Steel Hammer chooses to fight recklessly, then he is not in vain.

——Jun Jianliu has always been known for its simplicity and brutality. Once it can suppress the opponent in the first duel, then the follow-up skills can cause damage output that cannot be underestimated.

"Chong!"

The iron long handle of the war hammer blocked Ian's blade at the critical moment. The steel hammer roared and swung the war hammer away with its backhand, using the advantage of the long handle weapon to force Ian away, and then he took a breath.

"Who are you!?" The contempt on Steel Hammer's face was replaced by seriousness, "There are no warriors who are proficient in military swordsmanship in Rob Town."

"Good eyesight." Ian praised casually.

It's not a big deal for military swordsmanship to be recognized, but even if Steel Hammer can recognize his own swordsmanship, he can't stop the high attack power of the Lv6 swordsmanship level combined with the A-level weapon proficiency bonus.It can be said that in terms of offense, Ian has already surpassed the scope of ordinary white fighters.In fact, although the steel hammer on the opposite side broke through to the iron level in terms of strength, he did not realize his fighting spirit, and his overall strength remained at the white level. When he met Ian, who started with full attributes and mastered high-level skills, he would not win. Not as big as he thought.

The audience outside the iron cage originally thought that this would be another one-sided battle. However, after the first round of confrontation, they did not see the bloody scene of a hammer headshot that they wanted to see. .This made them who bet on Steel Hammer howl in dissatisfaction. At this moment, only more deaths can arouse their morbid joy.

The two people in the iron cage were not affected by the chaotic sound. Ian followed the standard tactical steps to find the flaws of the steel hammer, and the steel hammer set up the war hammer to prevent the opponent's sudden attack at any time.

When the two armies are at war, the powerful fighters are definitely the trump cards on the frontal battlefield. However, in one-on-one duels, they don't have much advantage due to their rough skills.Although Steel Hammer was unwilling to admit it, the rhythm of this battle was already in the hands of the kid on the opposite side who was proficient in military swordsmanship.

"They're urging you to do it, Mr. Hammer."

"Didn't you just say that if I wait for you to come over, I will have no chance?"

"How long are you going to delay? I'll wait until all the flowers wither~"

Unknowingly, Ian used the usual trash talk offensive in PK.It has to be said that his frivolous and unbeatable tone successfully provoked Steel Hammer's anger.However, this man did not launch an offensive easily, because he had a vague premonition that if he did not handle it properly, the next round of confrontation would be decided.Unfortunately, the person who loses is likely to be himself!
Steel Hammer's strict defense did not make Ian lose his vigilance.He has faced all kinds of ferocious beasts in the forest, and they will often entangle you for a whole day, just to throw you down, bite your throat open, and drink hot blood!

The current Steel Hammer is one such beast.

There were no human souls among the enemies who fell under Ian's sword, but that didn't mean he didn't have the determination to kill.As the opponent, Steel Hammer is a qualified fighter, but judging from his habit of killing opponents, he is not a good person.Therefore, from the moment he played, Ian gave him the death sentence in his heart.

Regardless of position, just because in this world, killing can never be avoided.

"Then, let's start with you."

With this thought crossing his mind, Ian shook his hands and pulled out a bright sword flower, and rushed out at the same time.

"coming!"

The Steel Hammer, who was waiting in full battle, roared, his angry roar instantly overshadowed the noise outside the arena, and the shock wave rushed towards Ian in front of him.

—Battle cry (D)!
The fighter's own combat skill has a shock and awe judgment, and has the effect of interrupting the opponent's attack.

Facing the opponent's counterattack, Ian instantly calculated the strength of this skill in his mind, and then, without dodging or evading, he stood up to the impact of the battle cry and exerted his strength again.

——Continuous stabbing (E)!
The thrust, which seemed to be exhausted and about to be interrupted by the battle cry, suddenly accelerated, breaking through the sound waves of the battle cry like a bamboo, and piercing deeply into the steel hammer's chest.

"-76!"

In Ian's vision, a huge amount of critical damage appeared above Steel Hammer's head.Even though Steel Hammer's overall blood volume of more than 200 points is close to twice that of Ian's health, such a high amount of attack is still not something he can't bear!
"damn it!"

The pale-faced steel hammer stared at a pair of bull eyes, held up the war hammer, and smashed down towards Ian with sudden anger.

Facing the whistling war hammer, Ian's gaze was fixed, he stepped on two steps firmly, and then quickly drew his sword back and swung it forward at a high speed.As this series of movements unfolded smoothly, the audience outside the court only felt that Ian in the court seemed to become a dazzling streamer, cutting through the burly figure of the steel hammer with a posture that could be seen from walking to extreme speed with the naked eye.

——Ultra Shadow Slash (C)!
The military sword skill known as "the fastest and most difficult for civilians" was successfully displayed by Ian, and the figure that fell down with the steel hammer suddenly froze. There was a long and narrow wound under his left rib, and the blood seemed to be free of money. splashed out.Immediately, his tall figure fell backward involuntarily, but was pierced by a sharp long sword from the back to the chest.

The corpse fell to the ground, and in an instant, the gushing blood had stained most of the field red.

I don't know when, the shouts and screams outside the stadium gradually decreased until they disappeared.The moment the steel hammer fell to the ground, the underground arena fell into a cold scene that hadn't been seen for a long time.

No one could have imagined that Ian, who was only two-thirds the height of Steel Hammer, would be able to win.However, when the result appeared, they shouted frantically while being shocked——

"Blackwing!!"

"Blackwing!!"

"Blackwing!!"

Maybe some people still feel sorry for their bet on the steel hammer, but the sword skills shown by Ian have already left a deep impression in their hearts.You know, in a small place like Rob Township, the captain of the town's garrison is only around Lv3 in swordsmanship, not to mention Ian's understanding of combat as a sanctuary warrior.

Cleanly beheading a seemingly invincible enemy with three sword strikes, this is a killing skill that the audience has never seen before.There is no doubt that from this moment on, Ian has become one of the most dazzling stars in this underground arena.
