The bright silver luster almost forced people to squint their eyes subconsciously.

She stood a few meters away from Logan and gave her own answer.

"I reject."

Chapter 138 Sword and Blood

The battle broke out in an instant, and the clash of sword and sword was connected into a clear and long cry.

The metal splits the air, weaving a precipice that strangers cannot approach.

It's hard to say that this is a battle of wizards, and the two confronting each other haven't even shown signs of using magic.

"What are you doing?"

Hyde couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

Dmitry gave him a dissatisfied glance,

"Didn't Straw tell you? That's right, young people these days are not very interested in history."

The old alchemist narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The battle between demons has always been like this. Simple, brutal, primitive... Sword to sword, blood to blood."

Ayla watched the fight, slowly clenching her fists.For such a battle, her vision is far more accurate than other wizards.

In her past experience, Ayla had seen those top fighters in the field of hand-to-hand combat more than once.

The female knight Ashley Chevalier, who learned her spear skills from the battlefield, has a refined and efficient style.

One man formed an army, as if hiding an entire elite legion of Hester under the armor.

The high-ranking filthy blood species with strong bloodlines who trade wounds for lives like wild beasts.

There is also Fred, who turns decay into magic. His seemingly simple punches and kicks actually contain indescribable terrifying power.

In Ella's opinion, Ling's fighting skills in the past were by no means the strongest among those people-but she was the most extreme.

The style of completely abandoning defense made Ling's killing ability far surpass that of anyone at the same magic level as her.Even an existence that is much stronger than her in terms of hard power is likely to be beheaded by surprise.

And compared to that time, Ling has improved a lot on this road, a lot, she is even stronger than when she was fighting for her life in the Nord wilderness.

Although her magic power growth has fallen into a certain bottleneck, her use of power is completely different.

What Ella didn't know was that before she woke up, Ling had fallen into a trap set by several apostles.

It was the apostle's counterattack against the hunting operation. The anti-hunting team was formed completely according to the abilities and characteristics of different executors. Their magic power on paper was more than three times that of Ling.But the final result was that the latter only paid the price of serious injuries and killed all these apostles.

However, such Ling is now at a disadvantage.

Ling took a few steps back, the vibration spread from the tip of the sword upwards, making her arm numb.

"Is that all? It's not even a warm-up for me."

Logan didn't take a step back, his sword was terrifyingly heavy, and the sound of it hitting the ground sounded like a thick block of iron.There are traces of melting on the surface of the black sword body, with large and small rust marks and dents all over.

"No wonder Fred died, just because he had to take care of such a burden as you."

"If it's me...it's me."

The man clenched his teeth, and the muscles and blood vessels on his face twisted.

"Why did you survive?"

Ling's face turned pale in an instant, she bit her lower lip without saying a word, and glared at him after a few seconds:

"Only one thing you said is right, the battle just now was indeed not even a warm-up."

As she said this, countless illusory feathers condensed into wings and tail feathers behind her back.

But they didn't get angry like in the past. Instead, they moved forward slowly, closing up like hugging their owners, turning into complex feather-like patterns, covering the girl's dark hunting suit and trousers like embroidery. .

Ling lowered his head to look at his severely twisted swords, reached out and grabbed them in his palm and stroked them hard.

Amidst the harsh sound of metal deformation, the blood-stained sword blade was straightened. !

"Logan Mephisto."

She stared at her brother who had returned to a guarded posture, and under the more solemn gaze of the other party, said in a cold tone:

"Put your posture, control your breathing and heartbeat, hold your sword tightly, and don't look away."

"...Because of this state, I am not proficient enough to master it, and I will kill you if I am not careful."

In the next second, her figure suddenly disappeared.

There was no warning, forceful action, not even the flash of a sharp blade piercing through the air.

what?!

Logan's pupils constricted violently, and he couldn't catch Ling's trajectory at all, but the needle-like sense of crisis made him shudder!

Without hesitation, he raised his broadsword and used its wide blade to cover his vitals.

Ding!

The moment Logan completed this action, the metal sword hilt collided with something in front of his eyeballs, but even at this time, he still failed to catch the opponent's figure!

How can it be so fast?

The thought flashed by, and the coolness from the back of his neck made Logan rush forward. He rolled on the ground and swung his sword to slash behind him, but the blow he thought he was sure to hit missed again.

Logan reached out and touched the back of his head. His hand was wet with hot liquid. There was a cut there. If he didn't dodge in time, the blow would cut off his cervical spine.

From the frontal assault to the attack behind, the total time before and after was less than half a second.Some kind of invisibility? Doppelgänger? Or even short-distance teleportation without warning?

No, neither.

Logan quickly denied these speculations.

It's just...too fast.

After figuring this out, he didn't feel terrified, but instead grinned with excitement.

"Yes, that's right."

The handle is like an epee that has been melted by flames and cannot be used, and it gradually shines. It seems that lava is flowing in the rough cracks on its surface.

Ding--!

There was a piercing long cry, and the sword that Logan swung to the side collided with the tip of the slender saber, and the lava and gravel on the ground splashed back outside the center of the circle.

This stagnation made Ling's figure clear again, and his cold and hot eyes collided in midair.

"Now, let's get started."

-

In a short period of five seconds, there were a crazy 62 attacks.

No matter what speed Ling used to attack or at what awkward angle, he would suffer an increasingly heavy counterattack.

Finally, she realized that a surprise attack based on speed alone could not decide the outcome.

The girl's hunting clothes were damaged, and she was not unscathed in this level of attack.

Ling took a deep breath, and those gray patterns gradually moved to her limbs, and feather-like patterns appeared on the two seemingly ordinary sabers.

The skin on Logan's face was chapped, faintly showing the color of lava.

His vest and upper body shirt were almost torn into rags by the sharp sword wind, and there were cuts left by the sword blade on his chest, waist and side face.

The blood flowed down the skin but did not fade. Logan's exposed skin showed a strange dark red color, just like those legendary demons.

Chapter 139 Ace vs. Ace

"Ling looks like he's about to win."

Hyde narrowed his eyes. Although he didn't have any experience in close combat, he could still analyze the situation in front of him.

"The sword just now injured Logan's left hand. There was a loophole in his defense on that side, and his flexibility would also be affected."

What surprised him was that the combat power shown by both sides was above his expectations, and both exceeded their own upper limit of magic power.

But Ella shook her head.

Indeed, the current situation seems to be that Ling has a certain advantage. Logan has suffered much more serious injuries than her, and some of the injuries have even affected his actions to a certain extent, but...

The silver-haired girl analyzed with a voice that can only be heard up close,

"Take a closer look."

"Indeed, Ling's incompletely mastered state is quite powerful, successfully suppressing Logan. But her physical strength and mana consumption are also very serious, and she can only last for a few minutes at most."

"But Logan..."

Ella's expression became serious, and a pale firelight flashed in her eyes.

"His upper limit of magic power has been increasing. At the beginning, his total magic power was only slightly stronger than Ling, but now it is almost twice as high as hers."

The astonishment on Hyde's face only stayed for a moment, and he obviously noticed this abnormality.

"I originally thought it was some kind of magic or prop unique to the Mephisto family. There are many ways to increase the magic power explosively in a short period of time, just like the mirror you used in the past."

"But...you're right, it's not normal."

Hyde failed to discover the existence of any magic props, and there was no magic that could easily increase a person's power to such a level without any cost.Even the Eye of Hermes needs the Book of the Sages as a source of magic power or uses blood to complete a contract of some kind.

At least from the current signs, there is no problem with Logan's physical or mental state, and this power seems to fit him naturally.

"It's almost like some kind of god descending ceremony. Some pretty powerful existence lent him power."

Hyde made his own judgment.

"It's similar in nature, and there's something...something out there."

Ella nodded in approval.

"This is probably the secret of the Mephisto family. With the help of this power, maybe it can indeed help them hold a holy object."
