Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 45: Clash

Repeatedly killing the skeletons for a whole night is enough to make people form a temporary habit in the subconscious, and it is impossible to distinguish the appearance of each skeleton at all times in the ocean of skeletons.

So Lorton's injury should not be because of carelessness, but because of mental inertia.

After reaching the conclusion, Thor took the skeleton warrior as the center of the circle and cleared a circular area around the opponent, allowing the skeleton warrior to stand out from the group of skeletons.

Then Thor quit a few steps to the center of the cemetery, and took out the three things he found from Lorton.

A scroll, an old parchment, and a bottle of light green potion.

He doesn't know much about magic items, but at least he has heard that scrolls have an effect as long as they are torn apart. As for the spell, he has heard of it for the first time.

With these three things in his hand, Thor intuitively believes that the blood curse Lorton said should be the parchment, and the scroll may be attack magic such as fireball. As for the small bottle of light green potion, judging from the color, it should be the parchment. Healing agents.

There is a sturdy old tree in the center of the cemetery, and an immortal resting lamp hangs on the trunk all day long.

At this moment, Sol was leaning against the tree and looking at the contents of the parchment by the light.

This parchment is not old, it is square in the hand, and the area is slightly larger than the palm of the hand. The still soft paper is obviously not baptized by the years.

In the center of the paper, there is an exquisite equal-sided six-pointed star, and a circle of unknown characters is engraved in the star. A delicate circle on the periphery just passes through the six sharp corners of the star. In addition, the four corners of the parchment paper each have a strange silver symbol. Text.

Although the main frame of the six-pointed star magic array in the center is composed of a single line, there are some complicated and delicate vine-like textures entangled on it. Perhaps because of the paint paint, these textures seem to occasionally glimmer through.

Thor couldn't understand the meaning of this magic circle, and knew nothing about the four runes, but it didn't affect him to feel the mysterious aura on the parchment.

There was a faint excitement in my heart. After all, this was the first time he had used magic items, but Sol soon realized a problem. He knew how to use the scroll, but how to use the spell?

throw it out? Burn with flames? Several unreliable conjectures flashed through Thor's mind.

Seeing the skeleton warrior getting closer, he decisively used the dagger at his waist to make a wound on the knuckle of the finger.

Since it is called the Blood Curse, perhaps it means to use blood to activate it.

However, when Thor faced the skeleton warrior and used his own blood to smear the magic circle on the paper and the runes on the four corners in turn, nothing happened.

In the next moment, Thor used a dagger to cut a gap on the edge of the parchment, and then grabbed the paper with both hands and tore it to both sides along the gap. He felt that maybe this kind of curse had something in common with scroll-like magic items. They were tears. It can be used as soon as it is opened.

After the clear tearing sound, nothing abnormal happened around.

Turning quickly to lift the grid lampshade on the tree trunk, Thor brought the parchment paper that had been torn in half close to the wick and lit it until only two torn paper heads remained in his hand after the burning.

Sol was silent, it seemed that he had messed up.

Withdrawing again a few steps away from the skeleton warrior, Thor took out a small bottle of light green potion.

Pulling out the cork from the bottle, he got close to his nose and sniffed. After a little hesitation, he smashed the whole bottle of medicine at the skeleton warrior.

The potion bottle shattered on the skeleton warrior's face, and the liquid in it dripped down the cracked face of the opponent, and there was no corrosion effect that Thor unexpectedly occurred.

Squeezing the last scroll in his hand, Thor decisively tore open at the skeleton warrior two steps away.

At the moment when the scroll was torn apart, a pale white ball of light suddenly rose out of thin air in front of him, like a small sun.

The ball of light burst silently in the air instantly. Although Risol had closed his eyes subconsciously for a short while, he was still flashed by the dazzling light, and his vision was instantly pale and he fell into a short-term blindness.

"Damn it!"

With a curse in his heart, Saul closed his eyes and quickly backed away, and almost tripped over a tombstone in a panic. He had realized that the magic scroll was actually an area lighting technique.

After two or three steps, Thor realized that he had reached the edge of the cemetery, and the sound of the iron bars on the top of the arrow came from his back, and he felt the rough thorny sensation of the thorn bushes on his legs.

Thor straightened his arm and lifted the one-handed hammer flat, swept left and right back and forth, and tried to move sideways while trying to avoid the thorn bushes under his feet. He remembered that the escape gap under the iron fence was not far from him, it should be on the right hand side.

"Crack."

"call out!"

It feels like it hasn’t been long. Almost when Sol’s swept temptation hammer touched a hard object at the same time, an abrupt and violent sound of breaking through the air was also heard, and the bitter sense of crisis made Sol’s whole body. The hairs stood up in an instant.

He opened his eyes desperately, but unfortunately the unrecovered vision was blurred. Even though he couldn't see it, Saul used his instant imagination to construct the scene before him.

The skeleton warrior’s withered hands simultaneously swung his big sword behind him, turning over the semi-circular trajectory of his shoulders from back to front, and the sword force from top to bottom was pressing against him with a strong wind.

There was a touch of bitterness in his mouth. If it was possible, he would actually be unwilling to confront this skeleton warrior head-on, because he was sure that this was a powerful enemy far beyond ordinary skeletons.

Almost by instinct, Saul decisively lifted the hammer over his head, ready to hold the blow, just as Li Luoton had dealt with his whereabouts in the duel.

Hold the handle of the hammer tightly with your left hand, and hold the blunt surface of the hammer with your right hand. The left hand is slightly higher than the right hand, so that the whole hammer body forms a slightly inclined surface.

This hammer holding posture can ensure that even if the opponent's weapon falls slightly in error with his own judgment, the deflected blade will not cut his fingers, and will eventually just get stuck at the connection between the hammer body and the hammer head.

Thor's mentor, the unnamed old man once told Thor that blocking is a skill that requires a strong reaction ability. The secret lies in the moment when the weapons of both sides touch, the moment when the force is relieved.

If you straighten your arm to make a hard touch with the opponent, your arm may break instantly because you can't bear the enemy's strength, so at this moment, Thor's hands holding the hammer keep the elbow slightly bent.

"Qiang~" The slash of the skeleton warrior arrived as expected.

After the explosion of the weapon collision, there was a violent downward force. If you couldn't react in this very short moment, Thor's shoulder would be directly cut away by the opponent's big sword.

Fortunately, Thor, who was holding his breath, grasped this moment precisely. When his elbow was about to bend to the extreme, Thor suddenly exploded with the strength of his whole body, preparing to push away the opponent's attack from above.

However, his face changed in horror in the next instant, because he found that he could not stand it at all.

I can’t imagine why the brutal slash that was smashed by the withered hands would carry such terrifying power. For a moment, Thor even had the illusion of being hit by the dragon's claws. He even thought that he would be directly pressed in. Go to the ground.

"Good weight!"

The weapons of the two sides had just entered the stage of power competition. After only a short pause of breathing, Saul had already knelt down on one knee.

Reluctantly offsetting the power attached to the opponent's shoulder slash, Saul has exhausted all his strength.

The weapon collision point on the top of the head was lowered to the shoulders on the side of the neck, and the elbows were also bent to the extreme. At this moment, Sol, kneeling on one knee, felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back, unable to move.

The weapons of each other seemed to be stuck together. If the skeleton warrior had a little wisdom, at this moment, he could cut Thrall's head by simply holding the big sword horizontally.

But it seems to be suffering from paranoia, it will only stubbornly concentrate all its power on the weapon, as if preparing to use the weapon to directly crush Saul to the ground.

"Kaz~Kaz..."

The friction of metal wrestling made people tremble.

The blade of the big sword was very close to his face, and he could even smell the sweet smell of metal rust on it.

Even though he didn't have the energy to laugh bitterly, Saul felt that he might not be able to hold it anymore.

At this moment when his life was hanging by a thread, his thinking fell and broke out untimely.

Looking down at his knees that was trembling because of his hard support, Saul felt that this scene seemed a bit familiar.

Where have you seen it?

Soon he found the answer in his memory, "The Elegy of Anonymous".

It was a book that ended in tragedy. In fact, it is not just the end. The protagonist of the book has lived in ups and downs all his life, lost his love, betrayed by others, and can only paralyze himself by killing.

God closed his door and closed his window easily.

It's hard to imagine how strong a person must be to trek in such despair, and live only for revenge for the rest of his life.

The story itself may not be credible, after all, most of the book content is derived from the author's conjecture. But all living beings are diverse, and in terms of probability, Sol believes that someone in this world must have lived that way.

At the end of the book there is a simple drawing illustration.

The protagonist of the book in the picture is also the same as himself at the moment, kneeling on one knee, parrying with a horizontal sword, and standing in front of him is a tall figure with a weapon pressing on his shoulder.

Of course it was not a knight award ceremony during the Ancient Kingdom period, but the last contest. The tall figure in front of him was the enemy and foe he had pursued for a lifetime.

Sol clearly remembered the words at the end of the book:

"Even if the filth has already infested his soul, he drew his sword, bravely defeated the strong enemy, and finally took the enemy down the abyss with his own life."

Like weeds under the rocks, Thor suddenly had an illusion of power permeating his body at a certain moment.

His expression became a little hideous, the blue veins on his neck bulged, and a silent shout came out of his mouth. He suddenly raised his left hand and lowered his right hand to make the **** of the hammer bigger, and he forced the skeleton warrior's big sword from the side. opened.

Sometimes Sol himself is also very strange, he always seems to be able to find some inexplicable power from the bifurcation of thinking.

It's just that this power comes from the body? Or is it your own consciousness?
