Chapter 243: Chapter 120 - Long Dangdang’s First Battle_2

With his double estocs spread on both sides of his body, he swiftly exerted force on his feet, accelerated, and initiated a charge towards his opponent.

The protection knight in full armor also strode forward. It was clear that his speed was not too fast, but each step was very steady. Like Long Dangdang, he did not release his mount companion either.

The distance between the two sides quickly closed. From the looks alone, Long Dangdang was undoubtedly much smaller than his opponent.

The protection knight lunged first. With a sudden lift of the massive tower shield in his left hand, he swung sideways! Using the towering shield as a weapon, this shield was over one meter eighty tall and more than sixty centimeters wide. It looked extremely heavy, and when swung, it instantly gave a solid sense of a mountain, with a fierce wind howling, covering a large range.

The opponent was clearly relying on his strong and brute strength, and his superior outer spiritual power, aiming to win by force.

At the same time, there was a flash of light on the heavy sword in his right hand. That was clearly the glow of the Daylight Slash. If Long Dangdang avoided his tower shield, he could then execute his next strike accordingly.

The protection knight’s attack mode was relatively single and more focused on defense, not having much finesse in offense.

At that moment, Long Dangdang also initiated. With a sudden acceleration of his left foot, he faced the harsh tower shield without dodging nor defending but countered.

There was a "bang" sound, and the spiritual power broke out, fueling an Explosive Burst!

Both double estocs simultaneously blasted out dazzling sword lights, with a two-handed swing of estocs. Against the heavy tower shield, both estocs were swung almost at the same time.

To anyone, this was an absolute unwise choice given the contrasting disparity in body size and age, similar spiritual power, and striking difference in equipment weight. However, Long Dangdang made such a choice.

"Clang, clang!" The roaring sound of metal collision almost sounded simultaneously.

Long Dangdang’s left hand estoc was directly knocked up by the heavy tower shield, but the right-hand estoc was much better. The full force of two sword swings came one after the other, and the protection knight only felt his tower shield being hit twice. The shield was indeed blocked.

While Long Dangdang’s left-handed estoc was knocked upwards, he seemed to lose his balance and started spinning around. However, the spinning left-hand estoc targeted the protection knight’s neck, using Power Poaching.

The sweeping tower shield by the protection knight was blocked by Long Dangdang’s double estocs, leaving his front defenseless and had to parry the incoming strike with the right-hand estoc.

The estocs of both sides collided and once again made a "clang" sound.

The protection knight successfully separated Long Dangdang’s estoc with the prepared Daylight Slash. However, the spinning Long Dangdang completed an accelerating process with this collision and swung up his right-handed estoc once more as his body rotated.

The target of his heavy slash was not the protection knight. Instead, he aimed for the side of his tower shield that was prepared to fall back on defense.

"Clang!" The tower shield shook violently. Despite the protection knight’s immense strength, Long Dangdang managed to stall the tower shield in its tracks using rotational force from his body.

This series of collisions occurred almost instantaneously, with both sides engaging in offensive combat. Long Dangdang, although looking much smaller in stature, didn’t fall behind in this close-quarter struggle. More importantly, he had managed to close in on his opponent.

Throwing his colliding estoc upwards, Long Dangdang didn’t hesitate. He continued to spin his body while swinging his left-handed estoc with a backhand swipe. His entire speed also increased slightly with this movement.

His attack was so rapid that the protection knight only had time to block it with his heavy sword.

"Clang—" The force of this strike was surprisingly great. The sheer weight of the tower shield that was previously stalled had caused his body to tilt slightly to the side. After bearing the brunt of this sword strike, his steps unconsciously stumbled.

Meanwhile, Long Dangdang’s attack continued without cease, his body persistently spinning, whirling up his right-handed sword again.

The protection knight realized his error in that moment. Originally believing the strength of his own 5th Rank cultivation level would be enough to deal with the childlike knight, he was holding back his abilities to help him face future dexterity. However, the young knight was way stronger than he had anticipated, indeed possessing a 5th Rank cultivation, and even his battle skills were beyond the knight’s experience.

Without any hesitation, the protection knight hastily retreated a step, avoiding a head-on clash with Long Dangdang. Instead, he pulled back his tower shield, squeezing his body behind it. Setting his feet apart, he launched the Divine Defense Tactical Block.

"Clang!" In the midst of the crisp clanging, Long Dangdang’s estoc was rebounded off while the tower shield shone with the golden light of the Revenge of Light. The protection knight didn’t seize the opportunity to counterattack but quickly initiated his contract space. A portal opened next to him, and with a roar, a robust figure rushed out from within.

Covered with heavy scale armor and over four meters long, it was a wyvern species, an iron-back earth dragon! Seeing such a steed, it was clear that the protection knight was an Earth Knight.

While the opponent was releasing his contract space, Long Dangdang landed five consecutive Chopping Slashes on the tower shield. Although Divine Defense Tactical Block was impossible to apply continuously, the Protection Knight, making good use of Revenge of Light added to the tower shield, got to resolve Long Dangdang’s attacks one by one.

The iron-back earth dragon roared deeply, directly charging towards Long Dangdang from the side while the protection knight also advanced along with his tower shield, aiming for a pincer attack. He was planning to interrupt Long Dangdang’s attack by coordinating with his magical beast.

Just then, a tiny contract space glowed around Long Dangdang as a small eye peeked out from it, looking towards the direction of the iron-back earth dragon.

The charging iron-back earth dragon froze abruptly, continuing its charge forward, but its consciousness seemed dazed momentarily.

Little Evil Eye’s innate talent skill, Mental Piercing!

Long Dangdang’s body spun rapidly, relentlessly launching an estoc whirlwind like a tornado onto the tower shield. His unending force exertion was becoming stronger, pushing the protection knight back again and again.

When the iron-back earth dragon regained its senses, it had already lost the perfect opportunity for a pincer attack. When it charged again towards Long Dangdang, it was merely grazed by the spinning estoc, instantly marking his body with a shocking blood groove.

And at this point, the Little Evil Eye’s gaze shifted suddenly. It looked towards the Protection Knight, he felt his brain getting pricked. Not severe, but ample to distract his focus momentarily.

"Clang!"

Under the massive strike, the tower shield recoiled back. Meanwhile, the faster rotating figure was already bringing down his twin estocs like a tempest!

On the viewing platform, the Paladin Commander, Nan Yu, had been watching the battle closely. His eyes narrowed and he quietly muttered to himself, "An impartation skill of the Punisher Knight, Whirling Swing Sword - rough, but usable."

Indeed, the Whirling Swing Sword originated from the impartation of the Knights Temple. It was the technique which Hai Jifeng had personally chosen for Long Dangdang. The stroke belonged to a mighty powerhouse who once controlled the God’s Seal Cathedra Rex of slaughter and judgement.

After ten seconds, the Protection knight, having no capacity to retaliate, admitted defeat.

Victory to Long Dangdang!
