Chapter 977: Law-Breaking Knight

The "Guide Energy" of the Spell-Breaking Knight, in addition to the usual healing and blood recovery, also has two special uses, namely "Holy Pressure" and "Holy Countermeasures".

…

Holy Pressure: Spend 1 channel energy to exert mental pressure on enemies within 30 feet. For the next 10 minutes, you must pass a Will save to maintain spellcasting concentration.

Holy Counter: Spend 1 channel energy to counter a hostile spell whose level does not exceed your own casting level/2.

…

The "sacred coercion" of the spell-breaking knight and the racial ability "disturbing the mind" similar to the swarm creatures have the effect of interfering with the enemy's spellcasting.

"Holy Counter" has an effect similar to "Spell Counter". The highest level of spells that can be countered depends on the spell-breaking knight's own spell-casting level.

Jack Favre is a level 10 spell-breaking knight. Even if he does not consider "skilled spellcaster" and other specialties that additionally increase the spellcasting level, he can at least use "holy counterattack" to counter spells below level 5.

The high-flying imitator can currently only cast magic of the highest level 2. Wasn't his spell-casting ability disabled by his opponent's "holy counterattack"?

After rubbing his aching head, Gao Fei calmed down and reconsidered the issue.

The relevant description of "Holy Counterattack" is too brief, and it is not clear from the literal meaning whether there is a distance limit for this ability.

According to Gao Fei's understanding, since "Holy Counter" is a derivative skill of "Guiding Energy", the rules of the latter should be strictly followed.

The radiation radius of "Guided Energy" is only 30 feet, so "Holy Counter" should only be effective against hostile spells within 30 feet.

If this is the case, this ability is useless. As long as Goofy is 30 feet away from Favor before casting the spell, he will not be countered.

However, he vaguely felt that his interpretation was wishful thinking, and for the sake of caution, he should be lenient to the enemy.

Just pretend that there is no distance limit for "Holy Counter", at least there is a limit on the number of times it can be used. As long as Feifre's "Direction" times are used up, this trick will be useless.

Another major feature of the profession of Spell-Breaking Knight is that you can learn the enhanced version of "Holy Slash".

A level 10 spell-breaking knight has mastered two such skills, called "Silent Slash" and "Dispersing Slash".

…

Silent Slash: The moment you hit the enemy with "Holy Slash", spend a reaction action to add "Silence" to the enemy.

Dispersing Slash: The moment you hit the enemy with "Holy Slash", spend a reaction action to add "Dispersing Technique" to try to remove the buff spell on the opponent.

…

Seeing this, Gao Fei couldn't help scratching his head.

Now he understands that the so-called "spell-breaking knight" is actually a type of paladin who specializes in restraining spellcasters!

From "Holy Coercion", "Holy Counter", to "Silent Slash" and "Dispersing Slash", the malice towards the caster is reflected everywhere.

Gao Fei couldn't help but feel lucky that thanks to his "Imitator"'s many tricks, he could play the game without relying on magic. If it were a duel between "Spell Thief" and "Spell Breaking Knight", MMP... shit would be beaten!

The information provided by Paul Porter did not give a list of Jack Favre's attributes, expertise, and spells.

Gao Fei is somewhat regretful, but it is understandable. After all, Potter is just an NPC and not a player. Based on his character design, it is impossible to provide as accurate data as the "Monster Manual", otherwise it would be a pure super game. .

In addition to the information about the Spell-Breaking Knight, Mr. Potter also revealed an interesting anecdote in the letter.

The man Jack Favre was nicknamed for two reasons.

In the popular slang in the market of Feizhen Kingdom, it is often referred to as "hammer head".

Jack Favre is tall and strong, as strong as an ox. It is said that he is very big...

There is also a saying that Favre is very fierce in battle. He holds a large shield in his left hand and can easily wield a large chain hammer that ordinary people must use with both hands with only one right hand. He will smash the opponent's brains to pieces, so he wins gained the reputation of "Sledgehammer".

After reading the letter, Gao Fei spent a ray of astrolabe energy, the game screen flashed, time jumped to the weekend, and the scene also came to a venue dedicated to judicial duels that he was very familiar with.

The duel started at 9:00 in the morning. Accompanied by Colt and his daughter, Gao Fei arrived at the duel venue by carriage at 8:30.

Before I even got out of the car, I saw a dark crowd outside the duel venue, no less than two to three thousand by sight, all citizens of Avalon who came to watch the fun.

Gao Fei has participated in three judicial duels, but the total number of spectators in the first three duels was not as large as today's one. The scene of huge crowds of people was very spectacular.

As soon as he got off the carriage, he was warmly welcomed by the onlookers, with thunderous applause and cheers like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

This was the first time Gao Fei had experienced such a scene. He was nervous and a little elated, feeling like a rock star.

After regaining his composure, Gao Fei regained his composure, waved to the audience, and received another wave of enthusiastic applause.

At this time, Gao Fei's clients, the Wenders and his wife, also came to the scene.

Paul Porter brought a group of aristocratic young men to the duel arena to watch this highly traffic-focused battle.

Gao Fei went over to shake hands with them one by one and exchange greetings. He received a lot of blessings and felt a lot of pressure at the same time.

No matter how realistic the game is, it is still a game after all. Even if Gao Fei loses to Jack Favre in the duel, there is still a chance to load the game and start over, so that he will not really be ruined.

Gao Fei knew that the game was like a training ground, and the training he received here was to lay the foundation for his ability to perform tasks independently in the future.

According to the information revealed by the stationmaster and Ms. Metatron, Gao Fei, as the first official special police officer to graduate from the training camp in Tiangong, will most likely be sent to an alien planet or even another world to perform tasks in the future.

By that time, he would no longer have the escape route of reloading the game. If he were in a similar situation as today, he would face a life-and-death duel that he could not afford to lose in front of everyone. Could he say that he would not be crushed by the heavy psychological pressure?

Gao Fei did not have such confidence, so he needed to experience more such tests in the game and strengthen his psychological training.

At this time, the sidelines sounded again, mixed with unbearable swear words.

Gao Fei turned his head and looked at the sidelines, only to see a tall man wearing knight armor, holding a large shield and a heavy chain hammer, walking towards the duel field amid the curses of the audience. It was obviously his opponent - "Sledgehammer" Jack Favre.

This disgraced knight, facing the curses from the audience, was under greater psychological pressure than Gao Fei. He had never taken off his helmet from the time he entered the arena until now. It was not just because he was ashamed to see people, but also because he was afraid of being hit on the head by the rotten eggs and tomatoes thrown by the audience.
