Zhao Xu, holding the giant scythe, finally felt how terrifying his output was with the blessing of magic.
Even if he was a fifth-level warrior in his previous life, it was not that simple to quickly deal with these warriors.
Weapons and armor collide like fire, so they have always been consumables for Arthur. Sometimes after a battle, the harvest may not be enough to hire a blacksmith to repair the deformed and broken armor.
Otherwise, Zhao Xu would not have become a peace officer in his previous life, and would have arranged for his parents to open a brick factory to increase their income.
However, sometimes it is not so easy to break through the defense of an enemy wearing full body armor. Only by identifying the weak points in the armor and shield can you successfully cause damage.
Zhao Xu had just successfully killed two people and was able to cause panic because of the power of magic.
The most direct reason is that he has the "Ghost Strike" that lasts for 24 hours after the "Spell Duration".
The technique is as its name suggests, one attack from the ghost will leave you unable to defend yourself.
Unless everyone present has been blessed by spells, deflected force field defense, dodge defense, holy power defense, etc.
Otherwise, basically everyone can rely on the flexibility brought by their own agility and the defensive power of the armor.
Zhao Xu's ghost attack technique treats armor as if it is nothing. If he is intentional about attacking but not intentional, he will naturally kill one by one.
And everyone has poor vision and feels that his weapon is killing the enemy without even hitting him. This is because -
His weapon actually hit the opponent!
Even Zhao Xu felt the lag when the blade hit the obstacle.
It's just that the obstacle that others hit was armor, but because he had the ghost attack technique, he hit the physical body directly.
In fact, as long as the armor of those fallen warriors is removed, the wounds inside can be seen.
The reason why Zhao Xu's "giant scythe" can seem to hurt people from a distance is because he has applied an hour-level three-ring arcane spell to the giant scythe - "Advanced Extraordinary Blow".
This spell can increase the size of his weapons!
Generally speaking, weapons suitable for humans of medium size are medium-sized weapons, such as the giant scythe in Zhao Xu's hand and the giant sword in Zhang Qi's hand.
They can also use the weapons of small creatures, which is just as easy.
Even weapons like giant swords that originally needed to be held with both hands can be held by humans with one hand if they are small.
The power of weapons increases as the model increases. But you can't use large weapons specifically for damage.
On the one hand, large one-handed weapons require a medium-sized human to hold them with both hands.
If humans still want to hold a two-handed weapon like a large scythe, it will be difficult to use it freely and the attack power will begin to weaken.
The "Advanced Extraordinary Slam" is a spell that invisibly expands the size of the weapon.
It remains the same size in the hand, but itself makes the weapon larger through an invisible halo of light surrounding the weapon.
Zhao Xu's medium-sized "giant scythe" was directly upgraded to three levels with the blessing of spells, crossing the two levels of large and extra-large, reaching the "giant" level.
You know, the storm giant, which is nearly six to seven meters tall and weighs over five tons, only uses super-large "weapons".
So those people were not hit by Zhao Xu's weapons on the surface, but were actually brought by Zhao Xu's aperture that was equivalent to a giant weapon.
In this way, the effect of "Ghost Strike" is hidden.
There is no need for Zhao Xu to demonstrate to everyone how the "giant scythe" in his hand becomes invisible and then sinks into the opponent's body.
This was also done deliberately by Zhao Xu to spread the fear of death.
Having read the life of the God of Death, he understood that the most wonderful way for believers of the once powerful god to please the God of Death was to create incredible ways of death.
Therefore, even if the "Advanced Extraordinary Blow" spell can only increase the damage of "bludgeoning" weapons, weapons such as Zhao Xu's giant scythe, which deal "slashing" and "piercing" damage, are simply larger in size. Doesn't increase damage.
It will not change from medium "2D4 (2-8)" damage to huge "4D6 (4-24)" damage.
But Zhao Xu still chose this spell to match the "ghost attack technique".
Because the intimidation effect is enough.
And at this time, Zhao Xu could already feel the vague outline of the portal beginning to appear in his mind.
This shows that he is on the right track.
After experiencing the "lasting spell", Zhao Xu became increasingly aware that his metamagic expertise was in short supply.
So he must get the "Iron Will".
Lux, the incarnation of a divine weapon, had no problem turning him into a metamagic expert right away.
At this time, Zhao Xu was no longer satisfied with the sparse crowd in front of him. He directly activated any magic he still had on his body and penetrated directly into the most densely populated areas of the battlefield with private guards.
He needs to use enough attacks to trigger his decapitation effect.
Every battle will add a heavy weight to the psychology of these guards.
Just now, Zhao Xu was able to successfully decapitate with his second sword. On the one hand, his sword was extremely exquisite. The performance alone was close to the "20" level, and it directly triggered a critical hit.
On the other hand, when Zhao Xu just used the "Advanced Enhanced Weapon", among the "+5" characteristics with a maximum cap of 200,000 gold coins, he directly chose the most domineering "+5" characteristic - beheading.
As long as the critical hit is successful, the decapitation effect can be triggered on all humanoid creatures.
This is a sure-fire fatal effect.
In fact, the heavy blow of Zhao Xu's sword just now caused 4 times the damage. The warrior would be killed on the spot. The decapitation effect triggered later was actually useless.
But the panic effect caused by beheading is comparable to that of killing dozens of people.
Everyone who witnessed it was extremely frightened by the mysterious decapitating sword energy that emerged from the giant scythe.
And Zhao Xu's flash of intervention into the battlefield this time also frightened several surrounding guards. The first-circle mage couldn't flash in so smoothly.
But their fighting instincts, which they had honed over the years, caused the two guards with spears on the opposite corner to stab Zhao Xu immediately!
However, when their ordinary spears hit Zhao Xu's "Star Cloak", they erupted like meteors and erupted with dazzling light.
The exquisite spear worth hundreds of gold coins was instantly blown to pieces.
Zhao Xu also immediately seized the opportunity. Two afterimages of himself swinging the giant scythe appeared in front of his eyes.
Zhao Xu's body automatically adapted to one of them, and he suddenly slashed forward like a full moon.
The angle was extremely precise, as if it had been predicted, it cut directly into the defensive corner of a guard who was about to pounce.
Just like before, the "giant scythe" had not yet reached the body, and relied on the halo of "Advanced Extraordinary Slam" and the armor-piercing attack of "Ghost Strike" to directly complete the kill.
Basically, Zhao Xu relies on the giant scythe stacked with various powerful effects in his hand, so that he can kill someone with his sword.
At this time, a captain of the guard also realized something was wrong and hurriedly shouted, "Don't worry, surround and kill the giant scythe mage first."
Although he found it hard to believe from the bottom of his heart that the man who harvested lives with the "giant scythe" was a mage, the other party's robes and cloaks could only allow him to make this judgment first.
As far as the Miners Association is concerned, the discipline of the miners themselves is ranked first among all types of work, and this is even more true for the personal guards of the mine owners. As soon as they heard this, everyone took action.
Zhao Xu had just cut down one person, and in the blink of an eye he saw seven other guards heading towards him with spears and giant swords, but he was not afraid at all.
At this time, he had continued to use "Operational Slash" to simultaneously take away another guard who was in a similar position.
"Cut with the trend" is a warrior specialty. It can only activate power once, allowing Zhao Xu to rely on the remaining force of that sword to attack again.
The prerequisite for release is that he must kill the person with the knife and fall to the ground.
Only in this way can the aftermath be caused.
It was only this "expertise" that a warrior could use to abuse food, but it shined brightly in Zhao Xu's hands.
However, this move can only be used in one strike.
Not satisfied with this, Zhao Xu has once again burned up his potential points.
He jumped first and casually killed the guard who was charging from behind. Then, with the remaining power of the sword, he suddenly used the "slash with the force" to slash at the seven people who had already sprinted over.
The sword flashed, and another successful beheading was carried out, taking the head directly from the neck.
Only this time, Zhao Xu's emasculation was endless, like a continuous river, and he won again in the eyes of the second person in disbelief.
The sword kills people.
Such a chain.
The formation killed seven people.
Within one round, eight people died.
The originally crowded battlefield suddenly became empty, leaving only the souls of the dead floating in the air, with nothing to rely on.
"Big advantage!" At this time, the leader who was riding a horse and giving the order had exclaimed. Apparently he recognized this secret that was not passed down by warriors.
In his previous life, Zhao Xu, as a warrior, only learned the "Fairness Slash" and had never been exposed to the "Great Shift Slash".
But at this moment, his eyes were already a little red, and he even ignored the increasingly clear image of the portal in his mind, and continued to rush forward regardless of everything.
"escape!"
I don't know who suddenly shouted this, and all of the mine owner's personal guards fled in all directions. The situation on the battlefield where the players were suppressed and beaten was instantly reversed.
However, players found that they didn't have to rush forward at all.
The mage wearing a cloak and carrying a giant scythe is like a god of death. No matter how far away the guards are, he can arrive first, flash behind them across a distance of a hundred meters and kill them with one blow.
Throughout the entire process, from beginning to end, no one could make the mage Death wield his second sword again.
"How is it possible that his attacks are so perfect every time?"
At this time, one player had already recovered from the shock of being beheaded, muttering to himself and sighing.
"And why is his attack power so strong? The defenses of those guards are all papery? Even if the armor is fake, how many times can he succeed just by dodging, right?"
"Don't be stupid. You were able to chop just now. Did you kill someone?" Someone directly questioned, making another person blush.
"I must have been blinded." A player couldn't help but rub his eyes hard after seeing Zhao Xu taking the life of another guard.
The last guard was already panicking and running away towards the player.
But before the guards could get close to the group of players, Zhao Xu's figure appeared behind him and took him away with a knife in hand.
At this point, on the entire battlefield, all the seventy guards who were still alive when Zhao Xu first intervened were killed by Zhao Xu.
finally.
Zhao Xu held a giant scythe in his hand and stood resolutely like a stone statue with his back to the setting sun that dipped into the horizon.
Yuhui stretched his shadow so long that it almost touched the players on the opposite side, causing those who were close to him to take a few steps back for fear of stepping on the shadow.
Zhao Xu looked at the players in front of him indifferently, letting the blood on the blade drip down and sink into the dry land.
