Sword and Magic and Taxi

Vesna lowered her head and looked at the dagger in her hand. Horizontal cracks had formed between the three gaps on it, making it difficult for them to withstand the next round of blows. So she showed it to Zhao Mai, indicating that she would go to the side of the field to change weapons. Zhao Mai nodded, indicating that she could do whatever she wanted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Vesna quickly thought of a countermeasure, and when she reached the edge of the field, she chose to pick up the spear. This spear was obviously used by knights on horseback, with a total length of two and a half meters. The spear shaft was very tough and could withstand a certain arc of bending without breaking easily. She decided to keep the distance and defend completely with changes of pace, so as to avoid the conditioned reflex to protect herself and follow the opponent's imagined routine. Moreover, in the previous knockout competition, no sisters used this weapon, so the opponent had no chance to see the routine.

She took a deep breath and mentally encouraged herself. When she turned around and looked at Zhao Mai, she found that one of his palms was facing the ground. Telekinesis grabs the dirt and shapes it into a steel tower shield. He weighed it and then looked at Vesna with a relaxed expression.

Spears and shields have been a classic contest since ancient times. Vesna set up the spear, adjusted the posture of her shoulders, prepared to use force, and then nodded to Zhao Mai. She estimated the distance between her and her opponent, then exerted force from her waist and transmitted it to her shoulders and arms. The spear drew a circle in the air, covering the entire front of Zhao Mai.

Zhao Mai, who no longer cared about appearance, hid his body behind the shield and rushed forward blankly. Only street gangsters who don't understand tactics at all would do this when they are desperate. Vesna crossed her hands up and down, letting the tip of the spear press against the ground and bite Zhao Mai's feet like a poisonous snake. If Zhao Mai jumps up, she only needs to take a step back and use her arms skillfully to make the spear tip bounce upward, forming a bottom-up offensive.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Mai stumbled, fell forward, and directly pressed the shield down. Vesna's eyes widened. Where had she seen such a tactic before? This is not an action that can be performed under normal conditions at all. It completely exposes oneself to the outside world. Doesn't the shield become a decoration? Even a beginner would not make this mistake, it can only be called a serious mistake. But it was a serious mistake that forced Vesna to move and try to throw the spear out to avoid being hit by the shield.

Fool, throw away the spear!

A word floated into Vesna's ears. She intuitively believed that this sentence was correct and was the best way to win. Because the spear is thrown away, it actually gives the opponent the opportunity to rush to the position of the spear shaft, thus avoiding the range that threatens the most. Although there are still many tricks that can be used in the future, after all, the biggest advantage has been lost, and the victory or defeat situation has changed. She should immediately throw away the spear and go to the weapon rack behind her to replace it with a weapon suitable for mid-range and close range. Even if she replaced it with a slightly shorter sword, it would have more room for use than the spear.

But Zhao Mai didn't stop her from changing weapons before. Is she going to change weapons again during the game? If you think of competition as a duel, there are no such rules. Vesna gritted her teeth, swung her hands away, the spear made a flickering sound, and hit Zhao Mai's waist from the side.

Sorry, I want to take advantage of the weapon. Zhao Mai dropped the shield and raised the Eight-Eyed Sword. But the spear hit the sword hard, and it did not break as Zhao Mai expected. He found that the spear instantly transformed into a soft force, weakening its own rigidity, so the spear tip continued to hit his back.

Bending and shaking your head to avoid the spear point, you will be safe. But even if he gets hit, he will be fine. Zhao Mai decisively chose the latter, and continued to move forward with a muffled bang sound, and the long sword slid over while cutting the spear shaft. Seeing this, Vesna adopted a desperate attitude, discarded her spear with both hands, and faced him with bare hands.

Zhao Mai didn't care about her attacks at all. The impact of being hit on the face, chin or vital parts could be ignored. He just put the sword on Vesna's neck and said, You lose.

Vesna closed her eyes and thought for a while, snorted, and then nodded.

You should not regard me as a normal human being or a martial artist, but as a humanoid monster. Zhao Mai said to Vesna: You have practiced too much with the best warriors in the world. There are too many, but there are too few monsters to fight, and my appearance is very confusing.

Well, what you said makes sense. I should think more and be more complicated, instead of trying to save trouble by reducing your abilities to human categories. Vesna nodded, shook hands with Zhao Mai and then retreated. Go down.

Hippolyta raised her hand and announced: The first game is over, Mike wins. The second game, Dai...

Wait, I'm coming. The girl with long black hair stood up. I don't want to be third. If I'm going to win, I have to be second. Let Diana get behind me.

The Amazon Queen looked at her and nodded. Paras, go ahead.

She just walked onto the field, not even holding a weapon. The armor, which was more decorative than protective, only had iron spacers on the heart, elbows and knees, and the rest was just a thicker, wider belt. Her first words after coming up were: Do you know that you actually lost the first game?

Is this your way of fighting, to convince me to admit defeat? Zhao Mai asked with a smile.

You don't defend at all, because you know that the weapons here have no killing effect on you. This is not the standard of the Amazons, but the standard of the gods. You are not following the rules. And your weapons, only Diana's artifact here can match them. , and you may not be able to compete. You have an innate advantage, do you admit this?

My parents are ordinary humans, and I was not blessed by divine power when I was born. After thousands of years of study, training, and hard work, I have reached my current level. No, I have no innate advantages, and I am afraid that I am not as good as my age. Not the biggest one here. There are only two innate humans here, Tyrion and I. Zhao Mai looked at Hei Changzhi and smiled and said: Equality is not equality. How can there be complete equality in this world? Moreover, I haven’t pressed your question yet: Are you a resident of Paradise Island?”

I'm not from the Amazon, and I don't live here very often, but I am an island resident.

You participated in the tourney. Who is the person designated by the queen, you or Diana?

Let's fight. Hei Changzhi said.

Zhao Mai waved his hand and threw the Eight-Eyed Sword into the portable space. The power of God can destroy so-called indestructible substances such as taxis and vibranium, so there is no need to suffer unnecessary losses. He also moved his wrists and ankles with his bare hands. Then he said: No problem, Your Majesty the Goddess Athena. Since you are so flattering, I can't refuse.

Do you think you can win in front of me? Pallas Athena asked coldly.

It depends on how victory is defined. Zhao Mai was not to be outdone.
