Chapter 97 Chapter 97 Double Helix

Residents of White Horse Town were awakened by shaking houses and quietly , looked out the window nervously. They first saw two people fighting in the heavy rain, and when the lightning flashed they could tell that one was Sheriff Langley and the other was a dwarf. Take a closer look, there are many corpses on the ground at the entrance of the town, these are dead people...

Dagon picked up the slingshot, and Langley formed a shield with water flow. Dagon shot, Langley blocked, the slingshot made a snapping sound, and the iron ball flew like a crossbow arrow.

"Where did you buy the slingshot? It's so heavy!" Langley swung her arms and the water swept across, but she had to block again with the machete to completely deflect the iron bead threat. She came out, and it can't go on like this. When using the current shield, she can't jump and dodge as flexibly as before. And Dagon's shot is high and low, left and right, very accurate and insidious aiming at the vital points of the body. Not to mention being hit between the eyebrows, if she was hit on the knee, she would also lose the battle.

So instead of backing up and trying to wake up more townspeople, she started charging forward and attacking! The machete swung, and the water rushed forward, towards Dagon's face. Dagon immediately dropped his slingshot, took two steps back to avoid the spot where the current would hit the hardest, and picked up his head-hunting axe.

The stream of water spread out in the air, followed by a faintly discernible, astonishing sword light. Dagon hurriedly jumped back, finally avoiding the current completely, while waving his tail, blocking the blade light with the end of his polearm. He tried to entangle Langley's weapon, disarm her with the effect of leverage, and perhaps subdue her without hurting anyone. This turned out to be a mistake.

Lang Li uses a one-handed machete with both hands, also using leverage. The curved blade makes it easier to drag and swipe, but it's Dagon's headhunter that bounces off. I saw Lang Li turned from the ankle, the knees and waist were bent and rotated one after another, and the tip of the knife immediately stabbed at Dagon's face.

He twisted his arms and managed to dodge the move, then continued to step back. The tip of the knife carried a stream of water, which was faster than the tip of the knife, and had hit his nose and eyes. Luckily it wasn't the rushing water used to strike the house, it was just regular water.

Ordinary water? Dagon immediately realized that something was wrong. The water did not leave his face, but squirmed, trying to cover his mouth and nose? ! Is this to suffocate yourself?

Lan Li's expression is unemotional, her eyes are serious, and she is clearly focused on the fight. The rain has been her sidekick, and the Water Element Affinity is home in this environment. An endless supply of water at her disposal, it's all weapons. If you want to defeat Dagon, you don't have to rely on the tip of a knife, it's the same with suffocating him. Dwarves are not good at swimming, nor are they good at holding their breath.

Dagon already feels that his breathing is blocked, which will affect his battle strength. Lan Li kept twisting the blade light, although the blade was blocked by the hunter's axe, the water flowed one by one and could not be completely avoided. On the face, the energy of the Water Element is already very clear, and they are converging, trying to form an airtight water mask. Wait, why should my face be taken over by your elemental power?

The Dagon runs its mana and orders the Earth Element to assemble in the face to block the water! He is earth and Fire Element friendly, fire is restrained by water, but earth is restrained by water, especially when blocking. The Earth Element was full, and Dagon's face turned slightly brown, but the water was pushed out, creating enough room to breathe. To regain oxygen is to regain vitality, and Dagon is clearly sighed in relief. And Lan Li spat on the ground, obviously dissatisfied with the result.

I can't suffocate (dizzy) him.

Since this move doesn't work, use the next move. The water began to spin around Langley, forming a vortex and accelerating her movements. The blade is getting faster and faster, more and more floating, and more and more strange, Dagon has to follow the high-speed rotation, carefully avoiding the flickering blade light. Dagon's movements have exceeded the maximum physical agility that Jiangu clansman can achieve without the use of spells. He can persist until now, and he has not been hit once, which has surprised Lan Li, even terrified.

Is this still a dwarf?

Amazing moves don't guarantee victory, and Dagon knows in his heart that he's impossible to keep up the pressure, and sooner or later he'll make a mistake and get caught up in the knife. The vortex of the water continued to create difficult terrain, sometimes dragging and sometimes traversing, creating a huge suction force that kept Dagon away. At the same time, the knife light extended outwards, forming a strangulation situation like internal and external pincers, and Dagon had to break the game.

In order to break the game, he must exert all his strength, Dagon said sorry to Lan Li in his heart.

The dirt climbed up, forming a rock that wrapped around Dagon's legs. The current rushed up, smashing into pieces on the reef. The waves may be able to smooth the rough reef, but it can't be done in a short time. For a short while, only the waves broke and the reef was firm.

Dagon stands still, the headhunter slashes, and Langley must hide.

Assaulting the enemy will save, turning the tide of the battle, Dagon's chest was cut with a knife. The surface of the armored shirt was cracked, and the armor pieces made by the dwarf craftsmen squeaked, dispersing the danger of this blow. Eating this blade is nothing, but Lang Li didn't dare to eat the headhunting axe's attack, she didn't even dare to parry. The arc movement greatly enhances the power of the polearm. If the machete tries to withstand the impact, it will either be split or bent, which will destroy the weapon.

Langly slipped out and spun around the Dagon like a surf. She began to spin, and the machete spun around her to build up her strength. The headhunter didn't hit the target, it continued down, and then was dragged back by the Dagon, drawing an arc that continued to change direction. At this time, the mud and stone collapsed, and Dagon also followed the maneuver, also dissolving, guiding and accumulating the power of the first hunting axe.

For a moment, the two people were back to back, like tacit dancers; the next moment, the two people were eye-to-eye, and their eyes flowed. He could almost smell her breath, she could almost hear his heartbeat. At this moment, Langley was faster than Dagon, but at this moment, Dagon opened his mouth.

"Shuo!"

The ultra-close-up flash rune pierced Lan Li's eyes, her shadow was able to support both heaven and earth, almost piercing the dark clouds in the sky. In the vast expanse of whiteness, the two red gems were even brighter. They saw through the misleading light and saw the cold killing intent contained in the hard steel weapon.

Relying on the power of red's eyes, Lang Li was still able to keep an eye on Dagon, not completely blinded, but her body's response lost a beat of rhythm. The rhythm of this beat allowed the first hunting axe to catch up with the machete, and the two weapons of disproportionate size collided.

It was two rotating collisions, one was a vortex of flowing water, and the other was a sinkhole that looked like quicksand. The machete was deflected, but the headhunting axe failed. Because the distance was too close, even the machete could not be used, so they all chose to continue to rotate, looking for fighters in the next meeting.

It's still a dead end. Once again undefeated. Dagon fended off the fist that was thrown at the bridge of his nose, and his attempt to draw the dagger from his chest was blocked. Langley rescued the weapon from the hook of the headhunter, but the dwarf's vital kick was blocked by the long handle. The two are still spinning, attracting and hurting each other, and neither can stop.

After several collisions, the machete couldn't take it. It's not that Langley's martial skill is weaker than Dagon's, it's that Dagon carries more steel. Both of them knew that the critical moment of victory and defeat was coming, and they both thought of ways to deal with it. In the eyes of others, it was just a little over a second, but a hundred or six hundred years of life would be ruthlessly decided here.

"Ken!" The headhunting axe was slanted on the ground, the blade and the tip of the spear were waiting for Langley in front. Dagon judged that the machete couldn't kill himself, and it was okay to trade injuries for victory. Langley, on the other hand, focused all of her attention on the part where Dagon was shot, where the crossbow bolt had pierced through and the blade had an easier time getting in.

A sharp, pointed blade protrudes from the wrist sheath, and the machete is just a feint.

The sharp point of the knife from the wrist scabbard slashed a pinch of beard and pinpointed the point where the crossbow bolt hit. Langley knew from the feedback on her hand that she found the part where the armor was penetrated and stabbed in it. But what she didn't expect was that the blade was blocked by the new guard, the tip was slid away, and that tremor felt like... scale armor?
Who wears scale armor under an armor shirt?

Dagon freed his hands, gave up his defense, and directly grabbed Langley's center of gravity. She lost her balance, dashing unstoppably towards the propped head-axe, like a helpless horse charged into a long spear, controlled by a foolish Knight.

Lang Li fell down, she couldn't feel her hands or feet, she only knew that she was being held in Dagon's arms. There was not a drop of blood on the blade of the wrist sheath, only a damaged scale, which looked very strange. Warm blood flowed down from the top of his head, obscuring the vision of his right eye. She couldn't lift her hand, so she couldn't determine the injury, but... at such a fast speed, she was pressed by Dagon and hit the blade of the axe. It is estimated that the skull has already flew off, right?

"Are you happy that you won?" Langley said weakly.

"Sad," Dagon replied, pulling his knife from the upside-down sheath in front of his heart at the same time. The knife was unpretentious, it didn't even look sharp enough, but it was enough, enough to kill.

"I'm a little cold, don't let me die." Langley said, "Relieve my pain, and stay with me for a while, okay?"

"My time is short. Too many, I saw someone running to the lord's mansion..."

"You kill me, hold me until the next battle, okay?" Lan Li said: "I think...I I want to at least die peacefully."

"Okay." Dagon raised his knife and slammed it down.

Lang Li's head tilted, pressing against Dagon's chest. She let go of her hand limply, and under her sleeve, there was a wrist sheath on her other hand that didn't pop out. Dagon tidied her hair and rubbed his bloody palms all over her. He looked at the lump on Langley's head, made sure it was a concussion and not a broken bone, and sighed in relief.

At the last moment, he twisted the first hunting axe with all his might, replacing the blade side with the hammer head. The blood was his, a clear cut on the palm. However, he was the one who hit Lan Li's cervical vertebra while she bumped her hair and made her temporarily incapacitated. As for the last dagger, it only takes a swipe of the hilt, Lan Li has reached the limit, and she will inevitably faint.

"You have to find a place to put you." Dagon looked at the corpses on the ground. "Certainly not with them."
