Abe the Wizard - Chapter 558
Chapter 558: 3 Strike
The tap landed directly on Drillmaster Layards joint. It was not random, Abel had calculated the spot in which Drillmaster Layard’s combat qi had traveled, and this joint was open in that slit of the moment.
“Don’t!” The Fire magic sword of Drillmaster Layard’s hand dropped to the ground.
All of this happened in a flash, but Drillmaster Cooper could still see it very clearly outside of the magic suppression circle. As Drillmaster Layard was unleashing his strike, Abel gently stepped forwards and gave his arm a little lift.
Afterward, Drillmaster Layard’s arm struck upon Abel’s sword handle. All of this seemed like a coincidence, but Drillmaster Cooper wouldn’t believe it. That was a head commander. Even a normal person with a hammer would not make them drop their sword.
However, more confusion was to come. Drillmaster Layard was exploding with fire combat qi. He had dropped his sword, but it still wouldn’t stop him from using his hand to grab Abel.
Abel gently twisted and avoided the grab. He then used his lightweight long sword and effortlessly drew a few lines on the body of Drillmaster Layard. Drillmaster Cooper was sure these few flicks of a sword did not have combat qi, nor were it very powerful, but still, it had opened up 2 blood vessels on Drillmaster Layard’s arms and legs.
Drillmaster Layard had gone insane. He had dropped his weapon, and now he had been hurt by Abel’s sword. The combat qi on his body was basically defenseless.
He quickly realized something was wrong. Abel’s flick of his sword had directly cut open the great vessel of his arms and legs. It was not a normal cat, but the entire grand vessel had been chopped open. Blood directly gushed out from the entire length of the wound.
If it was a normal cut or just a little damage to his grand vessel, he would be able to suppress it with his combat qi. However, not these 2 cuts. After a while, blood had drenched his entire body in red.
He continued to madly attack Abel, Abel continued to effortlessly step and dodge. He dodged all his attacks, just like a walk in the park. By that point, Drillmaster Layard felt his body grew weak and cold.
Abel never thought that fighting would become so easy with this ability to analyze data in real time. Since he didn’t need to expose his head commander ability, it was better to keep it as a secret. A wizard as well as a head commander would bring him way too much attention for his next 3 years.
However, as he continued to think, he realized it would be an even greater shock if he had won against head commander without combat qi or magic.
By that point, he longer wanted to join the fight. Instead, he doubted his eyes. Was he dreaming?
The 15 wizards on the spot also had the jaw dropped as they watched this fight. It was the most unbelievable thing in the world, even for wizards.
Seeing Drillmaster Layard’s movements getting slow, Abel thought to himself. He did not do anything wrong for bombing the Duchy of Keyen since he was just protecting his family, but Drillmaster Layard also didn’t do anything wrong either, he was also just seeking revenge for his son.
“Rest in peace!” Abel said gently, and he swiftly twisted beside Drillmaster Layard and avoided his attacks.
Afterward, he struck out his light long sword. He did not use any combat qi or much force, but this stab had penetrated Drillmaster Layard’s attacking arm.
Since Combat qi correlated with movement, in that flash of a moment, Drillmaster Layard’s arm was open for attack.
The light long sword Abel had a slim body, which was quite good for stabbing. On top of the momentum of Drillmaster Layard, the blade had easily penetrated his skin and landed in his heart between his ribs.
All of a sudden, Drillmaster Layard froze. All of his combat qi vanished. But a strange smile emerged from his face, as he mumbled with blood in his mouth. “Son, I’m coming!”
His body then fell back as Abel let go. Along with the light long sword, his body dropped to the ground.
The light long sword did not have a blood groove, so it would be very hard to take it out without sowing his force, so Abel just decided to let go of it instead.
Bang! A stream of red blood blasted out from the body of Drillmaster Layard 10 meters towards the sky.
“Combat qi smoke!” Drillmaster Cooper mumbled.
A head commander had basically suppressed their combat qi core to the maximum. When a head commander died, this core would blast open into a shockwave of combat qi. This was known as Combat qi smoke.
Although this combat qi smoke scenery had only lasted for 10 seconds, a few red cloaked wizards had also flashed inside the stadium.
Abel did not move as he stood in a magic suppression circle, feeling that weird feeling of being suppressed. It was a rare feeling. Although this magic suppression circle was basically a trick to the system, he had never seen one in the trading list of Linate City.
It seemed like anything that could threaten wizards were banned in the Holy Continent. Although a magic suppression circle was not really that useful, they were still banned.
They could suppress a Wizard’s magic power, but not the head commander combat qi of Abel. Since it had merged with the lightning attributes, it had formed a special combat qi in which the magic suppression circle could not interfere.
“Drillmaster Cooper, what happened?” A red cloaked wizard lowered his voice.
It was obvious. Drillmaster Layard was killed, and the 3 wounds on his body were clear as well. There was even a weapon on him, and there was an official wizard standing in the magic suppression circle with him.
The weapon on Drillmaster Layard was a light long sword those wizards used for training, and Abel only had a round shield on him. His right hand was empty.
Normal people would definitely think this was an accident, a training wizard had made a mistake and killed a Drillmaster. However, those 2 red cloaked wizards knew what rank Drillmaster Layard was.
As a head commander, there no way wizard could hurt him even with a magic sword, let alone a light training longsword.
Of course, that’s just what the 2 intermediate red cloaked wizards thought, not Abel. Ever since he had gotten that little piece of world stone. He could analyze any data in real time. He could look at a Knight’s ability from many different perspectives.
Just like Drillmaster Layard’s defense, for example. He did not use combat qi armour, so even though combat qi could naturally protect one’s body, Abel could still see some loopholes.
Even when he was attacking Drillmaster Layard, he didn’t need to use much force. He only needed some precise calculations to determine his weak spot and correlate it with the sharpness of his blade.
Even until the very end, when blood blasted out of Drillmaster Layard, Abel did not need to use a single bit of Combat qi.
“Wizard Calder, Drillmaster Layard had set the whole thing up, I think he was trying to murder k3516. But he got himself killed when he was attacking k3516!” Drillmaster Cooper explained.
By that point, he was still confused how Drillmaster Layard got killed. This made him doubt everything he had learned about knights in the past ten or so years. He felt weak.
Although he was a little more powerful than Drillmaster Layard, it was only a little more powerful. He might have ended up the same if he did the same thing.
