Chapter 873 - 106: The Mighty Hiech’s Wind and Su Li’s Victory (Part 2)
The knights and audience watching immediately burst into excited cheers. Witnessing such an exciting battle at the elite stage was truly worth it.
It was evident that the Wind of Light greatly enhanced this Dawn Knight’s speed and combat strength, allowing him to charge into the midst of thousands of troops at an incredible speed and directly assassinate the Necromancer.
Su Li also immediately became serious, taking a side step at an unbelievable angle, like the Goddess herself, intuitively avoiding this strike, and then stamping down on the Long Lance with a move that resonated as if stepping on mountains and rivers.
"Hiech’s Wind, indeed the most troublesome enemy of Chaos," Su Li praised, "you’re strong, but still a bit lacking compared to me. Let me show you the knight’s fury with Akasha’s Power!"
With that, he swung the Warhammer round with both hands, delivering a sweeping right strike aimed at the chest of the Dawn Knight.
Edwin immediately attempted to shift his spear left for a block, but before he could act, an overwhelming aura enveloped him once again, his knees slamming heavily into the ground, and the furious Warhammer smashed into his chest, causing the powerful Armor to dent noticeably.
He spat out a mouthful of foul blood, looking incredulously at Su Li, and asked, "You can still use the Blazing Blood ability?"
Su Li lifted his right toe, kicking the fallen Long Lance back towards Edwin, and with a subtle smile asked, "Isn’t it that whatever abilities I have, you have as well? Clearly, when it comes to the number of times to use the Blazing Blood ability, you don’t measure up to me."
Unwilling to concede, Edwin immediately used the next Blazing Blood Divine Magic · Hiech’s Grace.
This is another ability of the Wind of Light, allowing a person to be enveloped in Hiech’s healing power, curing all damage and ailments affecting them. This includes all persistent wounds, currently suffering illnesses, poisons within the body, etc. Knights can also cast it on themselves. It’s a touch-based ability.
Hiech’s Wind is also known as Holy Light Magic, displayed as a white Wind of Magic, a bright and divine Magic Power. It is the natural manifestation of light, signifying for mortals abstract concepts such as enlightenment and purity.
Hiech represents radiance, dispelling darkness, eliminating fear. Although Hiech is thin and diffuse, difficult to manipulate, it is a stable luminary, utterly opposed to Chaos’s randomness.
Hiech has many powerful effects like healing, protection, or banishing evil. The users of the Wind of Light - or those preferring to be called Holy Knights - are among the most disciplined knights, and the most troublesome foes for Chaos.
After Edwin used the Light Bloodline ability, he was immediately surrounded by strong and bright radiance, akin to a perfect exemplar knight of the Sun Goddess.
Having healed his injuries, he immediately launched a counterattack against Su Li.
But what shocked him was that even with his strong Light Bloodline healing abilities, his opponent’s resilience was no weaker than his own.
The two fought intensely for several minutes, sparks flying, stunning countless spectators.
This magnificent battle made ordinary people offer worship to its highest degree.
Indeed, many were so excited that their hearts were racing, uncontrollable, as if witnessing a battle of superheroes, remarkably exceptional.
Many of the fabulous moves and strategic moments were such that ordinary people, especially young ones, could only dream about in their dreams, showing such splendor and brilliance.
No wonder the citizens of the Empire love watching competitive matches; such exciting battles make one’s blood boil, hormones surge, and to many adventurers and ordinary people who idolize the strong, it’s far more interesting than three minutes of physical pleasure.
Those most fanatically passionate about all this are undoubtedly adventurers and young knights, having escaped the numb and dull rural production, standing on the verge of stepping into the extraordinary stage; at this moment, they witness firsthand the most awe-inspiring scene behind the gates of the extraordinary world, how could they not have their blood racing?
What’s more critical is, all this is amplified by gambling. Even those who bet a few free viewing coins on the match are well aware that as long as you invest, it greatly enhances the fervor and sense of belonging to the invested target, eagerly hoping for their victory.
And right now, these people have invested substantial wealth in the match for real, transforming each one into a die-hard, fervent fan of the contestants.
Many people’s voices have gone hoarse with shouting, on the verge of explosive tempers, feeling that if the fight on the field stays locked in stalemate, they themselves might intervene, physically persuading opponents over which supported contestant is stronger.
If not for the army suppression surrounding the arena, these rowdy viewers could truly escalate into a brawl.
Yet, the most intense and heated atmosphere is undoubtedly on the arena itself; Edwin steadied his Long Lance, half-kneeling in the stadium, stubbornly and unwillingly trying to straighten his chest, eyes fixed on Su Li approaching with the Warhammer.
"You! Can still use the Blazing Blood ability?" He looked at Su Li’s Warhammer with overwhelming shock and asked, "How many times can you use the Blazing Blood ability? This is already the fifth time!"
Su Li’s heavy footsteps resembled the Dragon Mighty surveying its Territory, each step pressed on the heart of the prey, making them feel the immense pressure from above even more keenly.
Despite Edwin’s unwilling and desperate resistance, the stones beneath his knees shattered, his Armor deforming, fracturing, and twisting, pinching into the ruptured knees with broken plates, letting blood flow freely; finally, his unwilling struggle crumbled under the suppression of the powerful bloodline ability, colliding and crumbling like a collapsed golden mountain and jade pillar before Su Li.
