After a few breaths, the distance between the two was shortened again to thirty meters!
Rudy saw that the rock shells could not hit Allen at all, but there was no panic on his face. His eyes were shining with excitement and he shouted loudly.
"Alan, watch out for this mixed magic!"
"mud!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a glimmer of understanding flashed across Alan's eyes.
As a fan of the novel, how can I ignore Rudy's signature magic? However, Rudy is still unable to instantly create a large-scale mud swamp. When fighting with Paul at the end of his childhood in the novel, he used a two-meter-diameter mud swamp magic.
Alan grinned and swung his sword towards his feet. The wind pressure separated the rapidly turning muddy ground. He stood firmly on the ground, jumped high up and escaped from the quagmire, then chopped off the insidiously flying ice spear with a sword.
It landed on the ground five meters away.
One foot plunged into the mire.
"?"
Alan looked at his legs stuck in the mud and looked at Rudy in surprise.
Rudy in the distance had stopped his rapid retreat and shouted excitedly at Allen.
"My water ball and waterfall techniques are not just for your entertainment! Look around you! This is a large-scale magic that I prepared especially for you!"
Alan chopped off the ice spear that came at him as Rudy spoke, and quickly looked around with narrowed eyes.
The hillside was already muddy.
Rudy is not able to instantly create a large-scale quagmire now, but what if the conditions are prepared in advance?
During the battle, the huge amount of water from the water cannon and the waterfall had completely soaked the ground under the hillside. Rudy was only one step away from completing the large-scale mud magic.
The entire hill was covered with mud.
Alan remained silent as he looked at his legs stuck in the mud, while in the distance Rudy suddenly released a series of huge ice spears that pierced the surroundings.
"but!"
Rudy crossed his arms and chuckled.
"Even if you are trapped in the quagmire and your movement speed slows down, I still cannot effectively deter you. You can sense my magic with the Water God Flow and then cut it apart."
Alan narrowed his eyes at him and smiled.
"so what?"
Rudy waved his hand and released a fireball that smashed the surrounding water guns into pieces. After the ice and fire collided, they carried the thick water vapor under the hill and formed wisps of mist.
Rudy withdrew his finger and pointed at his eyes.
"So I'm going to blind your senses!"
Then he bent down and touched the ground with his hands, keeping his eyes on Alan, and laughed, looking quite proud.
"Intermediate magic - geothermal! Mixed magic - thick fog! Natives of the world of swords and magic, feel the charm of physics!"
Alan felt the heat coming from deep in the swamp. Mist rose from the swamp below the hillside and soon the surroundings were covered in fog.
"Tsk, you're so proud of yourself, you even shouted out what's in your heart, you really think I don't understand, right?"
He twisted his neck, raised the long sword, pointed it at the squatting figure who was gradually becoming blurred in the mist while keeping his hands touching the ground, and asked with a smile.
"But if you kill the magician while releasing geothermal heat, the magic will be interrupted, right?"
Rudy's brows twitched wildly.
".What do you mean? Even if you can come over, I can still use magic to run away."
Allen put the knife behind his ear, made a throwing gesture, and spoke word by word while looking at Rudy.
"The Beishen Ryu has a sword technique that throws the blade. If this were a life-and-death fight, you would have been dead the moment you crouched down."
Chapter 35: The Secret of Water God Style, the Charm of Sword God Style
Rudy was flustered for a moment, but then he suddenly blinked, looked at Alan's face, hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively.
"So you don't, right? This is a trick of Beishenliu."
The next moment, a stone swirled in the wind and instantly brushed Rudy's cheek and shot into the thick fog, disappearing without a trace.
Rudy touched his cheek in a daze and looked at Allen who was in a throwing gesture and was about to retract his hand.
The stone came from his left hand, which never held the knife.
Alan looked at Rudy's dazed look, put down the knife with his right hand, and said happily.
"I'm just reminding you to be careful of this move if you meet a Northern God Swordsman in the future."
Rudy looked at Allen for a long time, sighed, and got up from the ground.
"I lose."
"continue."
Rudy's eyes were filled with surprise, but he saw that Alan had put away his smile and continued speaking seriously.
"On the other hand, if I didn't know the throwing technique, you would have already completed the magic. So continue to complete your arrangement. I want to see how far you can push me when I don't know the throwing technique."
Rudy's expression also became serious.
"good"
Alan moved his legs in the mud.
"Don't be discouraged, try your best. You don't want me to beat you twice in a row, do you?"
Rudy squatted down and continued to release the ground heat with his hands.
"Don't be ridiculous, Alan. If I can complete the dense fog magic, I..."
He raised his head and smiled.
"You will win."
Not long after he finished speaking, Rudy's figure was shrouded in the rising fog. After a while, the fog became thicker and the visibility reached five meters.
Alan looked quietly at the place where Rudy's figure was obscured by the thick fog.
Suddenly, a huge rock cannonball shot through the fog at high speed! The wind stirred up a hole in the fog, revealing Rudy's face. At this moment, the two looked at each other.
Alan had a blank expression on his face, while Rudy had a smile on his face.
The next moment, Alan drew his sword and chopped at the rock cannonball that was coming straight at him. The blade, which was filled with fighting spirit, made a sharp friction sound, and the rock cannonball broke into two and fell on both sides of him.
He looked at Rudy's position again. The thick fog magic had obscured Rudy's figure again, but his intuition told him that Rudy had left his previous position.
'Is it using the noise of the rock shell being slashed to hide the sound of my footsteps? The next time, the rock shell will not be this big. It must be a blade-shaped attack magic that is less likely to stir up the mist, probably an ice blade. If I cut the ice blade again, will I take advantage of the noise to change my position again? Then, can I avoid the attack and take advantage of the moment when the mist is stirred to determine Rudy's position and get close to him?'
Allen tried to take two steps in the mud, and his speed was obviously affected.
'.The resistance is greater than I thought. The geothermal heat solidified part of the mud at the bottom. If there is no fulcrum floating on the mud to support my body weight, it will be difficult to get close to me instantly at this distance.'
Alan's eyelids drooped, and then he closed his eyes.
He sighed softly in his heart.
"In this case, I'll just go back to the Water God Style that I'm best at. Fortunately, I have the Dragon Saint Fighting Qi that greatly enhances my five senses, otherwise I might really be exhausted to death by Rudy here. Although we are all time travelers, I at least have the Swordsman's Path system, and I'm four years older than him. Even if I closed the gap by a hundred meters in advance, I'm not willing to lose like this."
Three ice blades silently sank into the fog from the front of Alan's side, and shot towards him slowly so as not to stir up the fog too much. The fog rolled slightly, revealing Rudy's face vaguely.
Alan didn't open his eyes, and the smile of a short old woman flashed through his mind.
"Last year, I was fortunate enough to create a pure beating secret technique for the Iron Turtle, and it is quite appropriate to apply it to the current situation."
Three ice blades had already reached the side of his right ear.
Alan closed his eyes and raised the knife lazily, the blade light passing through the ice blades.
With a slight cracking sound, the ice blade broke into six pieces neatly, but the strange thing was that the broken ice blade did not continue to fly out like before, but turned around at the side of Alan's ear and fell straight down into the mud.
It was as if the direction of the emission suddenly changed.
Alan's blade hovered beside him, and he smiled silently as he watched the traces of magic gradually dissipate on the ice blade in the mud.
The words that Litan said to him last year still seemed to be ringing in his ears.
"Using one of the five secrets of the Water God Style, 'Sense the Flow', as inspiration, I give up distracting perception of distant information and concentrate all five senses on the trajectory of the blade to fully capture all information about the environment within one meter in front of me. I perform a simplified version of the 'Sense the Flow' secret, and then use the highest degree of the current secret that I can master to deflect all incoming physical and magical attacks as much as possible. Not bad, interesting."
"Disadvantages? The disadvantages are obvious: First, it is too passive due to the coverage of the simple 'Sense Flow', and you can only hold your head and take the beating. Second, if you encounter a higher-level master, the opponent's speed is beyond your perception, or you cannot use the flow secret to deflect the opponent's high-level attack, then it will be completely useless. However, the disadvantages do not outweigh the advantages. Come on, Alan, the moment you fully master it, you will be a water saint."
".Hmm? You want me to give it a name?. It swims in the middle of the stream, standing firm as a rock. Let's call it Rock."
Alan opened his eyes, looked at the thick fog in front of him, and smiled silently.
"Water God Style - a self-created secret technique."
'Rock.'
The mist surged, as if realizing that the ice blade's attack power was too weak, and this time it switched to an ice spear of deliberately compressed thickness, but the moment it approached Alan, it broke into several pieces again and fell under him.
Rudy seemed to be panicked for a moment, then quickly changed position and continued to shoot several high-speed rotating rock shells.
The ending is still the same: being cut into pieces and falling into the mud.
Alan's eyes drifted and he looked at Rudy, who appeared when the fog dissipated. The other party gritted his teeth and disappeared into the fog again.
Alan chuckled and said disdainfully.
"Haven't you eaten yet? Come and see the big one!"
Without being provoked by Allen, as soon as he finished speaking, Rudy fired three consecutive rock shells that had been polished to be even sharper.
The knife light twisted around Allen's body, and was still cut into several pieces that fell directly at his feet.
Alan glanced at the soles of his feet, his eyelashes trembling slightly.
'It seems that he hasn't realized that he has already been cushioned and has a place to land his feet. Then, the next time Rudy releases magic, judge the opponent's position and cut him with the sword god style before he escapes into the mist.'
"It's not good to keep getting beaten."
Alan exhaled, broke free from the mystery of the rock, and then shouted loudly.
"Rudy! I see you!!"
Just as he finished speaking, the fog on the left suddenly surged, and the next moment, a huge ice spear shot out from the fog.
Alan moved.
He stepped on the "platform" in front of him that was less than five centimeters below the surface of the swamp. The feeling of being unable to exert force in the swamp disappeared instantly, and the strength was transferred from his feet to his body. Alan felt that his body was extremely light.
At this time, Rudy's face was about to disappear in the fog again, and the ice spear was close at hand.
Alan's eyes shifted, and the tip of the ice spear overlapped with Rudy's face at this moment, reflected in Alan's pupils.
He smiled and spoke to Rudy, who looked at him with a somewhat flustered expression.
The two were quite far apart, and Rudy didn't hear what Allen said clearly, but he could see his lip movements clearly.
Alan said.
"I saw you."
The fog was stirring, creating layers of ripples visible to the naked eye.
As Rudy watched intently, Alan stepped out of the ripples and leisurely placed the blade one meter in front of him.
The tip of the knife still trembles.
"You lose."
As the words fell, the ice spear broke into two pieces with a snap behind the two men and fell into the mud.
The mist condensed like flowing water in front of Rudy's dull face.
[Understand the essence of the Sword God Style, master the Silent Sword, and the level of the Sword God Style will rise: Sword God Style - Advanced. ]
Alan reached out to sheath the knife, but found that the blade was already curled up and he couldn't complete the process.
He was silent for a moment and asked in his mind.
"What about the Water God Stream?"
