Blood tax

Chapter 258 The Power of the Lawbreaker
Griffith gently let go of the girl, took a step back, and thumped the breastplate: "That's right, Galadia and the elder retreat first, and I will come when I blow up this waterman."

After saying this, he turned and left, and tied his war horse to a tree beside him.In a one-on-one battle with a transcendent, ordinary war horses would be easily killed, but instead became a hindrance to the rider.

Elder Windu looked at him, then at Galadia, silently thinking about whether he should stay and stop him, and finally said:
"Vieri is an extraordinary person in the caster path, but his combat has a distinct assassin passing style, often appearing in the form of water balls or water elements, and is good at high-speed maneuvering, concealment and melee attacks. I have already broken his domain , he will not be able to use the heavy rain for long-distance displacement in the next battle, and his mobility will be suppressed to the greatest extent on dry land."

The extraordinary wizard "Liquid" Vieri waited quietly and listened to them finish speaking, neither objecting nor caring.It wasn't until Galadia and Elder Windu rode away that they showed their aura again.

His form slowly emerged from the puddles on the ground, and his appearance was like an enlarged drop of water, round and clear.Griffith took a closer look, and felt that it was a bit like the glutinous rice dumpling sold in the town outside of Homonwatts.

The Transcendent swayed and rolled around, seeming to be looking at the quasi-knight with great interest.

"Breaker, no, Barrier Breaker, I don't quite understand why the oracle instructs us to fight with you alone and give priority to killing you?" Vieri said while sticking out a seahorse-like head from the shape of a water drop And the thick hands and feet, transformed into a tall water element whose body fluctuates like waves, "Forget it, anyway, the little girl has arrangements, and I don't want to fight with this guy Windu. It is my philosophy of life to stick to the path of abuse.

"Come on, it's only a few minutes."

Griffith let go of the lance, and tightly grasped the shield of perseverance and Hanguang.Surging power surged in the body.Through the mithril pendant, he already knew that his strength had climbed to 25 points after swallowing the potion just now, which had reached the limit value of the extraordinary.

Although he can't directly break through the ranks without the promotion potion, his body is ready, and next, he will use actual combat to open the door of Sequence 7!
Vieri approached in the form of a water element, making a tidal roar.He is changing his shape every moment, looking for the ultimate balance between strength and agility. The accumulated water on the ground and the splashing water seem to be the extension and tentacles of his body.

The distance between the two sides is getting closer.The extraordinary spellcaster in front of him actually gave people an unshakable oppressive force almost like that of an orc warrior.

Griffith's eyes were burning, and he stepped forward to stab the enemy.However, Vieri's figure flickered at the moment of confrontation, his burly and heavy body suddenly became extremely agile and vigorous, and he went directly behind Griffith and swung the water knife.

"Bah!"

This sudden attack came and went in a hurry, even a bit random and ethereal like caressing willows.However, Griffith still felt a sharp pain in his back.The armor is breached!
His ice shield exploded, and the defense behind the solid Anima breastplate was not as good as the front chest, and the gap was also split by this knife.The lining's mail shattered into scattered hoops.

This cunning spellcaster can switch between his strength form and his high-mobility agility form at will, and surprise me in the back!Griffith immediately activated the spell, sweeping the extreme cold across the water, freezing the accumulated water on the ground into solid ice.

"Frozen Nova!"

Facing Vieri did not expect this sudden change.Although the icy cold did not cause considerable damage, it still froze its feet.

Griffith turned around and slashed with his sword.He poured power into the blade and shield, and the edge broke through Vieri's wavy form, cutting in two like glue.

The section cut by the sharp blade can faintly see the flash of psionic annihilation, but Vieri's fallen upper body is indifferent to the damage.He lifted his hands while his body was sliding down, and his arms condensed into two sharp water blades, stabbing him head-on.

The Perseverance Shield made an itchy buzzing sound, and the water blade grazed the shield. At the same time, another water blade passed Griffith's waist, breaking through the solid breastplate and mail armor. A deep gash was left on the right abdomen.

This blow directly pierced the armor from the front, and Griffith instinctively wanted to wail, but the injury in his abdomen made the screams reach his mouth, only "hehe" hissing and panting.

The melee damage of an extraordinary wizard is so terrifying!
The water elements that had just been cut off immediately reunited.The blow just now had indeed traumatized Vieri, but it was suppressed to the limit by the characteristics of the elemental body, and only the remaining blood on the blade could cause a little substantial damage.

The genie began to spin around Griffith, the freezing effect only causing a momentary inconvenience before dissipating.He was as fast as a flood, holding huge ice spikes and water knives, and stabbed the quasi-knights in the wildest and crazy way.

After just 3 minutes, Griffith was already bruised and crumbling.The sturdy breastplate was pierced in many places, and blood spurted out of the cracks, staining the silver armor blood red.

During this process, the extraordinary elf wizard swirled around him like a torrent.Griffith could vaguely see the outline of the enemy and the trajectory of the passing figure, but he couldn't track the swift speed and sharpness.

The sharp water blades that could pierce the armor kept stabbing out, and Vieri, as an extraordinary spellcaster, also had an astonishingly high tolerance to attacks.He didn't care about his own injuries at all, and used the style of injury-for-injury to press down on the quasi-knights, firmly believing that the opponent would fall before him.

Griffith was bled like a lion besieged by wild dogs.Under the severe pain, Griffith's liquidation was triggered, and he used Hanguang to strike Vieri, who was rushing forward, with a head-on sword, splitting the opponent's head and piercing his arm at the same time; he grabbed the Perseverance Shield, Sweeping across with a sharp shield, the smashed water elemental liquid splashed everywhere.

This round of attack seemed to tear Vieri's body, knocking him back two steps.The severed parts hung from the body like melting candles.

"Hey hey hey - very imposing~" Vieri shook the head and severed hand hanging on his body, and gave a ferocious smile, "If it were a mortal, he would die immediately."

Penetrating wounds healed quickly, like glue coming together in hollows.There was no bleeding, no trembling, no moaning, not even a disturbed breath.The extraordinary spellcaster took Griffith's full attack with equanimity.

Griffith looked at the enemy and couldn't help but secretly startled.

The beheading of sharp instruments and the slamming of blunt instruments destroy the body, but Vieri can still heal within a few seconds, and is almost immune to physical killing; however, a small amount of blood energy attached to each attack remains in the body of the water element up, lingering and biting like red arcs.In other words, only attacks with Extraordinary characteristics or magical effects can cause substantial damage to this Extraordinary spellcaster.

I understand, to deal with such an elemental transcendent, I must pour my extraordinary characteristics into every attack!Griffith came to his senses, and began to try to mobilize the blood in his whole body, no longer diverging, but concentrating, concentrating for the next attack.

In addition, the ground is full of water, and Vieri's maneuvering speed is very fast. In the battle just now, Griffith only hit a third of his attacks, and the rest were dodged by the high-speed dodging enemies.

Then, the means to effectively attack him is... to avoid being dodged by him... Thinking of this, Griffith rolled up the dark blood cloak, concealed his body and ran away.

"Hey? Want to run?" Vieri's body immediately collapsed and completely merged into the stagnant water.

With the help of concealment, Griffith quickly flashed towards the high ground aside.However, just as he took a few steps, two thick liquid tentacles stretched out from the stagnant water under his feet and grabbed his feet.

His body immediately turned into a ball of bats, broke free from the tentacles, whizzed across the water, and flew towards the dry hillside.

The flight time this time was not long. He had just landed when he heard the howling of a torrent suddenly.A torrent swept across the sky and covered the earth.

The torrent crashed down and knocked Griffith to the ground, and the sword and shield in his hand flew out.Immediately, the form of Vieri, the extraordinary elf, emerged from the stagnant water on the ground:

"Useless cleverness, human beings, even without the support of heavy rain and stagnant water, I can easily catch up with you. With a little trick, how far can you escape?"

As soon as his words fell, Griffith jumped up and rushed towards Vieri empty-handed.

The extraordinary spellcaster grinned: "Hey, didn't you run away or charge towards me? Is it the last struggle?"

There was a sudden shocking momentum in the air, and the phantom of the mountain monster roared behind Griffith.He didn't condense the ice gun like before, but waved his fist and blasted towards Vieri.

Fatal blow, inevitable hit, concentrated blood, power beyond the limit.After one battle after another, Griffith's blood permeated his whole body and became one with him, and his fighting spirit was mobilized.

"If you don't get closer, how can you hit your SHIT!"

This blow rolled up a grand red light, and punched the wavy elemental creature with all its strength!
Under this punch, Vieri lost the ability to dodge, and watched the meteorite-like fist attack.

"what--!"

Deafening bangs echoed in the forest, and Vieri was blown half of his body away with a punch. The blood light swept away like a hurricane, and even swept away the moisture and fallen leaves behind him.

The air was still, and the entire mountain forest bowed its head in a roar.

Vieri's watery face showed a painful and surprised expression, and the blood was biting the opening of his body like a gangrene, constantly smashing his elemental form, revealing traces of flesh and blood.

At this moment, Griffith suddenly gained some clear and pure thoughts.A wall that stood tall in front of him collapsed with a crash.For no reason, he realized that he had mastered the ability to use Extraordinary characteristics to attack and dispel magical states.From this moment on, he is the natural enemy of magic, and the mystery crumbles under his attack!
An extremely sharp water blade roared through the air, pierced through the breastplate and pierced Griffith's left abdomen, passed through the abdomen, and broke out.

"You broke through? But it's useless," Vieri spun the water knife that pierced Griffith's waist, pointing to the big hole on his body that was healing rapidly, "I'll heal soon..."

His words were blocked in half.

Griffith remained indifferent to the horrific injuries to his waist. At the same time as the water knife pierced through his abdomen, he had already drawn out his gleaming silver flintlock gun and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
