Chapter 259 Suppress, Suppress, Continue to Suppress!
A single floral shoe, a broken umbrella, an overturned bamboo basket, a white canvas bag... all kinds of things were scattered on the ground, welcoming the baptism of drizzle and tossed in the cold wind. There seemed to be a figure in the far corner of the street, but he was timid and did not dare to approach. There were heads poking out of the nearby shops, carefully peeping at the two people standing opposite each other in the middle of the street. From time to time, they secretly cursed for ruining their business... Tang En and Eunice, if you use another way of saying it is a gimmick, then It's a showdown between a living killer and an assassin from another world.
There is no doubt that no matter which one he is, he is an absolute master in close combat. For extremely dangerous close combat, defense is unrealistic, so seizing the opportunity becomes very important.
Seizing the opportunity, of course, does not mean taking the first shot, that is for low-level warriors. For people of Tang En and Eunice's level, they must seize the opportunity in a targeted manner. If you don't discover the opponent's flaw and take action rashly, you may be counterattacked in an instant.
So, do Tang En and Eunice have any flaws now?
No! At least in each other's eyes, the other party's movements of slowly moving the dagger, concentration, and outward murderous intention are all flaws worth taking action.
Of course, the behavior of the two people made the shop staff who were watching secretly dissatisfied. The intense prelude before the collaboration has evolved into just staring at each other and posing at each other? But at this moment, suddenly, neigh - not far away, a horse that had been knocked down struggled a few times, neighed, broke its reins, got up and ran away.
But this long hiss instantly lit the fuse of the battle. Tang En and Eunice's eyes flickered, and their figures disappeared.
Ding, ding, ding... When they appeared in everyone's sight again, the two of them were actually in the middle of the previous distance, not one point worse, not one centimeter more, and the space of several meters seemed to have never existed.
The daggers used in the battle have disappeared, only the cold light circulates, and the cumbersome and detailed sounds of fighting continue to be heard. No one knows how many times the daggers in both hands came into contact in this short moment.
Two black figures swayed, ran, and entangled like windmills, creating a cluster of phantoms. Soon, he disappeared from everyone's sight... The onlookers naturally had no likes and dislikes towards the two fighting men. After the shock, they smacked their lips and recalled the short fight just now. Well, it seemed to be Nadan Dagger. The person is at a disadvantage. Sure enough, it would be good to have more weapons... The attacking dagger, the quick footwork, the figure seeking for gaps... Faster, faster, faster... In this case, The location of the battle has long since moved to the street, the roadside, the door of a shop dozens of meters away... In a flash of surprise, the swift figures of the two people were beyond the ability of ordinary eyes to capture.
It was still a clash of daggers, with cold light flashing. Tang En did not use his blood energy, and Eunice did not use his fighting spirit. Both of them seemed to have lost their temper and wanted to suppress the other simply with basic dagger skills.
"Haha, too slow, too slow, familiar stranger..." The enchanting figure came and went freely in the shadow of the dagger, Eunice smiled charmingly and ducked behind Tang En, crisscrossing the dagger on her back, " Didn't you say you want to kill me? I'm right here. Haha, but this strength is not enough."
"You are very noisy..." Tang En rushed forward and ducked to avoid the attack. He drew out his dagger in a half-arc and brought up a few threads of water. "If you have this skill, why don't you worry about the safety of your companions."
"Companions? I don't care if they die! At worst, we just need to find another batch." The charming tone said the indifferent content, Eunice waved her dagger to parry, and then the dagger in her left hand suddenly stabbed out a little cold light, "Oh, if you say so, Are you from the Gray Army?"
After retreating in silence, Tang En seemed to have no time to speak, so he pulled away to avoid the cold light. But in an instant, Eunice, who was smiling coquettishly, followed him again, with sharp dagger shadows coming out of her hands. Tang En retreated again, smashing the window of a shop, and with a few screams, he crashed through the wall and broke into another shop.
Lime was flying, and after a pause, Eunice ducked into this large fruit shop. At a glance, except for a few clerks squatting down with their heads in their hands, Tang En was nowhere to be seen.
"Haha, stop hiding. Aren't you here to kill me?" He cut a fruit casually, turned the dagger slightly, dug out the pulp and put it in his mouth, "Well, it tastes good...Aren't you very angry? In just one month , seven hiding places were wiped out."
"Ha, do you know the reason?" Eunice strolled deeper inside and glanced around, "Since I found it, it doesn't hurt to tell you. I just saw your promotional poster by chance, and I was bored out of my mind."
He picked up a yellow fruit and threw it, smashing the pile of fruits arranged in the shape of a tower in front of him, but there was still nothing behind. Eunice didn't pay attention and walked forward casually. Although Tang En's level of hiding surprised her, it was just hiding. For people of this level, when they are prepared, it is basically a joke to catch someone unprepared.
"It's fun, of course I want to have fun, so I'll destroy them one by one. Haha, this thing is so absurd, isn't it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another plain voice said, "Oh, that's it."
Hiss, hiss... Eunice suddenly turned around, flashed to the checkout counter more than ten meters away on the right like a ghost, and dropped her double daggers.
Boom... "Ah--" The counter was torn apart, and inside there was only a fat businessman holding his head and screaming.
She frowned, then curled her lips slightly, and smiled charmingly again. Eunice turned around and said, "You ran pretty fast... Don't you want to avenge those who died? Well, let me think about it, there were probably hundreds... "
"What about the goshawk?" A voice suddenly sounded behind Eunice.
Turned around and paused. When Eunice, whose expression changed, turned around completely, a blue crescent-shaped object had already hit her eyes. Further back, a black shadow jumped out from behind the squatting fat man.
"Please eat bananas!"
Swing the knife to cut off, oh, it is indeed a banana. Immediately, Eunice's pupils shrank sharply, and dense bloody dagger shadows filled her vision, silently, swiftly, and several times faster than Tang En's previous shots.
Hiss, hiss, hiss... ding, ding, ding... dagger shadows, sparks flying, and the sound of rain hitting plantains!
Eunice was a little slow to react because of those words, and Tang En's sudden outburst immediately suppressed her.
To strike while the iron is hot, to kill is to behead.
Tang En would not let go of this opportunity. He swung the dagger with all his strength, using all the skills such as Flowers and Storms. For someone like Eunice, even a one-second delayed ultimate move was enough to defeat him. She escapes.
Straight thrusts, horizontal cuts, downward strokes, upward thrusts, topsy-turvy, endless, simple and crude, speed wins.
"It's you? It's you!" During the chaos at the station, Eunice had fought against Tang En. Although it only lasted a few seconds, the impression was profound enough. As soon as Tang En increased his speed and released his blood energy, she was immediately recognized by her.
The usual charming smile disappeared, and Eunice's face was as frosty as she did not hide the cold murderous intent in her eyes. But no matter how overwhelming her hatred is, the first thing she needs to deal with now is the layers of daggers covering the sky in front of her.
In a narrow space, the effectiveness of two daggers is not as obvious as imagined. Just like Tang En now, a dagger is enough to seal off the area.
Eunice has never been a person who likes to defend, especially in the current assassin duel, where defense is equal to courting death, so she chooses to attack without hesitation. But the space was only so big. Tang En had the upper hand and already occupied most of it. Her counterattack with the dagger was more like attacking instead of defending.
The constantly wandering figures, the terrifying and intensive attacks... In an instant, the two of them were fighting in a high-intensity battle, creating a seemingly "harmonious" scene. No one was defending, no one was injured...and looking at this posture, it seemed that it could be maintained forever.
Of course, this is just an illusion. No one can make mistakes and be stable all the time. The difference is who reaches the critical point of the limit first. At that point, a single attack will be enough to make the difference between life and death.
Yes, as Tang En said to Joshua before, in such a rhythm, it is impossible to defeat and capture the opponent. The limited choices resulted in only one person dying, or perishing together... Calculating the attack route, calculating the opponent's attack route, attacking, counterattack... In just a few minutes, the physical and mental energy of the two people was rapidly consumed. Sweat was looming on his face. The only difference was that Tang En was wearing a camouflage mask, and most of the sweat was inside.
No, we have to retreat... Eunice bit her lip, such thoughts flashed in her mind.
This was of course a helpless move. Eunice had originally hoped to regain the initiative she had lost before. But by this point in the battle, this idea had long been abandoned. Tang En's sudden burst of strength was no longer inferior to hers. Now the only way is to retreat in order to distance ourselves. If they don't retreat, when Tang En's advantage increases, there will be no retreat.
Thinking of this, Eunice kept attacking, but her footsteps moved and she rushed out behind her.
It's not that easy to retreat. Turning around and running away is a recipe for death. Only in large-scale mobile warfare can you find opportunities.
Want to leave? It's not that easy... Tang En instantly saw through Eunice's thoughts, and followed her like a shadow with a fierce dagger shadow.
Bang...the wooden shelf holding the fruits was the first to be hit and shattered!
Boom...the thin wooden walls separating the shops were smashed into pieces, and sawdust flew into the air!
Explosion... The heavy brick wall was broken open, and a large human-shaped hole appeared!
"ah--"
Retreat, retreat again... advance, advance again... Suppress, suppress, continue to suppress!
Tang En had worked so hard to create such a situation, how could he let the other party slip away so easily. So even though Eunice screamed repeatedly and used various body movements, she was still unable to escape the maggot attack like a tarsal bone.
Turning while retreating is a whimsical thing, because it means exposing the side of the body and increasing the range of defense. So in the end, Eunice had no choice but to use her back to smash the obstacles behind her again and again.
