Chapter 60

Fragments of the large shield flew in all directions, exposing Ren's body.

Driess withdrew his long sword, took two steps back quickly, slightly distanced himself from Ren, and unhesitatingly performed a flaming dash again.

Flame Dash is his most powerful move. It is quick to launch and has a long range. The only disadvantage is that it must keep a suitable distance from the target. Ten steps is the best. damage.

Although at this moment, there are only three steps between him and Ren, the distance is too close, and the flame dash may not even have half the power, but it doesn't matter so much.

Driss' long sword became hot, as if made of lava, and pierced Renn who was close at hand.

hiss!

The long sword tore through the air and let out a scream, and in an instant, it stabbed in front of Ren's body, and the scorching breath almost burned his clothes.

Seeing this scene, everyone around couldn't bear it.

They didn't know what kind of grievances there were between Dries and Ren, but just looking at this sword, Driss obviously had murderous intentions and wanted to kill Ren on the spot.

"stop……"

Davenlage and Pollock shouted in unison, neither of them wanting to see this result. Pollock drew out the soul gun quickly, but it was half a step too late.

However, what happened next was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

Ren seemed to be caught off guard. He stayed where he was and did not dodge. He let the flaming long sword drive straight in and stabbed him in the chest.

Seeing that he was about to succeed, Driss felt happy in his heart.

Suddenly, he felt resistance from the sword, as if the stab was not a flesh and blood body, but a steel plate, and even made a strange collision sound.

"what……"

The thought in Driss's mind hadn't settled yet, and he was about to explode the power of the fire element on the sword. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a war hammer from bottom to top, and slammed it hard on the blade.

Bang!

The terrifying force almost bent the blade of the sword, and Driss's mouth burst open. He could no longer hold the long sword and was sent flying into the sky. The explosive force generated by the blazing dash exploded between the two of them, and the scorching air violently oscillated.

Both Rennes and Dries were forced back.

Dries was empty-handed, and suddenly saw Ren raising his left hand and pointing at himself, while his lips quickly muttered silently.

"He wants to cast a spell!"

Driss didn't forget that Ren has always claimed to be a wizard. Although he didn't know what spells Ren had mastered, in any case, Ren could not be able to cast spells smoothly.

The best way to deal with the caster is to close the distance and attack in close quarters.

Even without a weapon in his hand, he is enough to interrupt the spellcasting.

As for the close combat with Ren, as a magic swordsman advanced from a ranger, Driss is not worried at all.

From the battle just now, he found that Ren's speed was mediocre, and he was not dexterous enough. As long as he fought for a few seconds and found a chance to catch the long sword falling from the sky, Renn would have no choice but to die.

Driss immediately stopped backing, and rushed forward.

"You are asking for your own death."

With a thought in his heart, in the eyes of everyone who was bewildered, he suddenly put down his left hand, raised his right arm, stretched his body posture, concentrated all his strength in his hand, and threw the broken war hammer out of his hand.

Dries, who was rushing forward, had no time to dodge. The distance between the two was too close, and the war hammer hit his chest.

There was a tooth-piercing muffled sound.

Dries seemed to be hit head-on by a shell, flew upside down more than ten meters, hit the wall of the training ground with a bang, and fell to the ground together with the warhammer.

He was startled and angry, he leaned against the wall so he didn't fall down, and when he looked down, his chest was sunken, and he didn't know how many bones inside were broken, even breathing became very difficult, and his face turned pale immediately.

"puff……"

Driss finally couldn't help but spit out blood, staining the ground red.

In just two or three seconds, the situation on the field had an astonishing reversal. The long sword that was knocked into the air fell from the sky at this moment. Ren stepped forward two steps and kicked the end of the hilt.

The long sword turned into a bright shadow and shot straight at Dries' head.

Ren didn't want to be merciless. Driss obviously wanted to kill him just now, and now he must retaliate.

The speed of the long sword was extremely fast, and Dries, who was seriously injured, didn't respond, his body was sluggish, and he watched his sword flying towards him, about to pierce his head.

Most of the slayers watching the battle were stunned by the changes on the field and didn't react.

"team leader!"

"Get out of the way..."

Several team members screamed out loud.

"Ren, don't." Pollock shouted loudly. He had already held the soul gun in his hand and was ready to shoot at any time, but he hesitated for a while, and then he was already too slow.

Driss closed his eyes and waited for death in despair, when suddenly a big hand appeared in front of him, grabbed the blade directly, and stopped the long sword.

At this time, the tip of the sword was less than a finger away from Driss' eyebrows.

Driss's mind relaxed, and he couldn't hold on any longer, and suddenly fell into a coma.

"Your Excellency, Captain." The demon-killing team members also breathed a sigh of relief. It was Daven Lach who grabbed the long sword. He arrived at a critical moment and rescued Driss.

Davenlach looked at the sword in his hand and found that his palm was cut.

Even though the wound made by the long sword was very shallow, only scratched the skin and did not bleed, Davenlach was still slightly startled.

After he advanced to Steel Knight, he possessed defensive elements such as "skin of toughness", "dragon bones", "strength", and "unyielding will". Few people could cause harm to himself. Torn skin.

"Ren definitely has a power element, and there are more than one layer."

"And it's a bit strange that he blocked Driss' sword, and he wasn't injured."

Various thoughts flashed through Davenlach's mind, and he couldn't help being curious about Ren. The first level defeated the fourth level, and the challenge of leapfrogging was successful. This is definitely not explained by a combat wizard.

At this time, Dries' team members finally reacted and glared at Ren.

The three primary transcendents picked up their weapons one after another, surrounded Ren, and shouted, "How dare you kill the captain!"

"Don't even think about getting out alive today."

Pollock hurried over to make a rescue, persuading him, "Calm down, put your weapons away."

On the contrary, Ren didn't respond. He didn't pay attention to these people, and he felt a little regretful. He couldn't kill Dries today, and troubles would be inevitable in the future.

Of course, killing Driss may be more troublesome.

As the atmosphere became more and more tense, Davenlach threw away the long sword and said, "Put away your weapons, what are you talking about!"

A team member of Driss said unwillingly: "Captain, he wants to kill the captain..."

Davenlage glanced at him and said, "I don't want to favor anyone. You should know who will hold back first in this competition."

Those team members dodged their eyes, not daring to look directly at Davenlahe.

Anyone can see that since the beginning of the competition, Driss has no good intentions. The flaming dash just now wanted to kill Ren with a sword.

It's just that the result made people's jaws drop. With a difference of three levels, Dries actually lost and was almost killed.

The battle wizard is also too powerful!

It wasn't until this moment that people came to their senses, what an incredible thing Ryan had done. The rumored feat of stepping up and down the stairs happened before his own eyes.

Those team members suddenly lost their courage and stepped aside involuntarily.

Davenlach ordered: "Send Dries to treatment quickly, his injury is very serious, and it is estimated that he will have to recuperate for a while."

"Yes, Your Excellency, Captain." Several people hurriedly lifted Dries, who was in a coma, and left.

"It's all gone."

Davenlage had some headaches. It was normal for a match to develop like this.

Driss will have to recover from his injuries for at least three or four months. The Demon Slayer team has lost an important manpower. The strength of the second team has plummeted, and they cannot participate in many missions. Moreover, after this blow, Driss' reputation in the Demon Slayer team plummeted, which had a great impact on his personal future.

Although Driss asked for it all, part of it was his own responsibility.

If it wasn't for taking care of Dries' face just now, and directly stopped Dries' scheming, there wouldn't be so much trouble.

Back in the office, Davenlach looked at Ren, who had half of his upper body clothes burned, and thought, since Driss was defeated and could not come back in a short time, then Ren can only take over.

Ren can't be kicked out, causing the demon team to lose a captain in vain.

Everything can only be blamed on Driss himself for not living up to expectations and not being as strong as others.

Moreover, this Ren is not completely without support, there may be a legendary demon hunter behind him, and it seems that he has a good relationship.

Davenlach made a decision in his heart, smiled, and said, "Ren, you really opened my eyes today. It's the first time I've seen you challenge the steps."

"Your Excellency the captain, thank you." Ren replied modestly.

In fact, he won very thrillingly.

As a magic swordsman, Driss's explosive attack power is higher than that of Wilt, who is of the wind type. Even with a body of steel, he dare not use his body to harden the long sword at will.

Just now, when the hammer was used to hit the blade, the Iron Body only blocked it for half a second. If the hammer was slower, he would definitely be seriously injured.

Davenlage didn't know the inside story, but was just amazed at Ren's fighting skills.

He praised a few more words to show his closeness, and then said: "Ren, of course it is no problem to join the demon squad with your strength, even being the captain is enough. You are welcome to join us, and we will serve the people of Longshande in the future." Work safely and destroy all evil monsters."

"Yes, thank you, Chief Captain."

With excitement on Ren's face, he stood up and saluted.

Davenlage encouraged him for a while, and he almost directly told Ren that as long as he performed well, he would be promoted to captain if he had the opportunity.

Ren pretended to be very grateful, but in fact he didn't have much thought about the captain's position.

On the contrary, Pollock was both happy and sad. The happy thing was that Ryan joined his team, and his strength jumped to the top of the five teams;

The three of them have their own thoughts, but on the surface they are harmonious.

Afterwards, Ren went to the prayer room of the demon squad, prayed loudly under the witness of several team members, confirmed that he was a believer of the goddess, and then formally joined the demon squad.
