The attack part of the long-handled war hammer doesn't look big, it's about the size of a hammer by visual inspection, and it has a long steel handle attached.

The huge warhammers in works such as movies, games and comics are purely for artistic exaggeration. It is quite a physical challenge to swing such a large weapon.

The long-handled war hammer that is not exaggerated does not look very eye-catching, but its power is not compromised at all. Hitting someone's skull with it is enough to kill with a perfect blow, and Sheriff Chattin is also capable enough to use it.

Anyone who can get to the level of a peace officer must have two skills. Especially in this world with supernatural powers such as magic, the criminals that guards face are far more dangerous than those on earth, so being able to fight is a necessity.

He gave full play to the characteristics of the long-handled weapon and used the range advantage to control the direction and range of Kaya's avoidance. Whenever she wanted to get closer, she would be forced to retreat. Even if she wanted to retreat away, she might not be able to do so and would be hit by the sound.

The coming hammer forced me to dodge.

In the first few seconds of taking action, Sheriff Chatin had already taken away the rhythm of the battle and greatly reduced Kaya's performance.

As the war hammer struck again, Kaya finally reached an unavoidable situation. As a last resort, she could only hold up the sword with both hands and wait for the opportunity to block.

The quality of her sword was excellent, and the blocking position was chosen on the long handle of the war hammer. If she directly dealt with the hammer head, it would be broken directly by the hammer.

What's even more unfortunate is that Kaya's skills and strength are not as good as Sheriff Chattin, and the quality of her equipment is also very different.

At the same time as the block was successful, the long-handled war hammer immediately emitted a dark magical aura. Kaya, who had originally planned to block and retreat, felt that her wrist became weak for a moment, and she could not use any strength at all.

"Stand Battering Ram!"

At the critical moment, Eve's magic attack helped Kaya escape.

The hammer-shaped stance aimed at Sheriff Chattin's flank, but due to the distance and the speed of the stance's battering ram was not very fast, he immediately gave up and continued to put pressure on Kaya, and took two steps back to let the hammer-shaped stance pass.

position.

Korra, who had been blessed with the lightness of the cat again, dropped her short bow, pulled out the dagger from her waist and rushed forward. Kaya took the opportunity to drag the long sword back with her numb and weak wrist, waiting for Pei Renli to continue giving it to her.

Re-bless the power of the Barbarian Bull.

Looking at Korra who was entangled, Eve explained:

"That war hammer should have an enchantment called Touch of Fatigue. This spell can make the target hit lose power. It's best not to confront him head-on."

The weapons and armor used by Sheriff Chatin are all issued by Mu Xing City, and all abilities are enchantments specially customized to facilitate the maintenance of law and order.

Normally when capturing someone, one only needs to use this war hammer to hit non-lethal parts of the target's body and activate the effect of fatigue touch to successfully capture him alive, but now he definitely has no intention of capturing him alive, and all his moves are aimed at the vital points.

As he spoke, Pei Renli blessed Kaya with the power of the bull. This spell could offset the effect of the touch of fatigue. When the spell took effect, the feeling of weakness in his hands and feet disappeared.

"Korra and I will entangle him, you guys think of a solution as quickly as possible."

With these words behind her, Kaya once again rushed forward to aid Korra. She should have an advantage over the two-on-one close quarters and could buy some time.

But when it comes to finding a solution, how to solve it is really a big problem.

Pei Renli didn't have much magic power left, it was only enough for one use of Cat's Lightness or Bull's Power. Although there was still some left after using it, it wasn't enough to use it again.

If you use magic missiles, you can probably use them four times, barely 1.5 times is the limit, but magic missiles can't cause any damage at all, so it's useless.

This is because I took a short rest just now, otherwise the magic power would be less.

The condition of the others was not necessarily much better than Perenli's. After all, they had a fight before confronting Sheriff Chattin, so they were not in perfect condition to begin with.

Although it is difficult to say who can fight better between Sheriff Chattin and the monk Anton, what is certain is that the method used to deal with Anton cannot be used to deal with him.

After all, Sheriff Chattin was wearing armor, while Anton came with no weapons and equipment, just his hands.

Apart from this difference, the discomfort is the same.

Ordinary weapons cannot defeat magic armor. If you want to use cold weapons to cause damage, you can only attack the gaps in his armor at close range or chop at the areas not covered by armor from behind.

But Sheriff Chattin was very vigilant. Even in a one-on-two situation, he was able to control Korra and Kaya directly in front of or to the side of him, never giving them a chance to get around.

Eve and Perrenli standing behind were even more miserable. Spells would be blocked by armor. Even if they picked up Korra's discarded short bow and fired it, even arrows shot to the head would be deflected by the enchantment effect. The most commonly used magic missiles were completely blocked.

Can't afford anything...

Thinking of this, Pei Renli suddenly recalled a detail.

When Eve used her stance battering ram to help Kaya out of the siege, Sheriff Chattin chose to dodge instead of resisting the magic and take the opportunity to kill Kaya.

If his armor really had the ability to ignore magical effects, there would be no need to dodge. Chattin, who had become the Sheriff, would not be unaware of the common sense of giving priority to reducing the number of enemies when there were one against four.

He still chose to avoid it, which was not normal.

And if the magic missile's ineffectiveness is just a bluff, then Eve threw two enchantment school spells after the fight started, which also had no effect.

Therefore, Perrenli felt that Sheriff Chattin's armor should be enchanted with abnormal status resistance, rather than spell resistance that has resistance to all spells, so he chose to avoid it when facing the battering ram.

Of course, this is just a guess, and there is no absolute certainty whether it is true Pei Renli. However, there is no better way now, so we can only try this idea.

"Do you want a more powerful evocation school spell? And it can't be one related to fire attacks."

There are a lot of destructive spells that use flame as the main means of destruction, and the effects are also very good. Mages will also choose this type when choosing destructive spells. For example, Pei Renli specially learned the Burning Hand.

Eve knew almost all the spells he knew, because if he had any questions about magic, Perrenli would go to Eve to discuss it. If Eve couldn't answer it, he would go to Teacher Grace.

However, Perrenli didn't know what spells Eve knew. The place was full of fire oil, so flame attack spells couldn't be used. If Eve didn't have the right spells, even if the weakness she just noticed was real, it would be completely useless.

Useless.

"I know some, but it takes time, and with his speed, I might be able to avoid it."

Seeing Pei Renli pull out the dagger from his waist, which was now almost as long as a dagger, and looking like he wanted to fight, Eve added:

"Is there anything you can do?"

Pei Renli took a deep breath:

"I haven't thought of any concrete plans yet."

“…..”

Right now it's just an idea, there are really no concrete methods.

While racking his brains to figure out how to exploit the newly discovered weakness, Sheriff Chattin swung away Korra and Kaya with a hammer:

"I see, it's just the strength of a novice adventurer, so there's no need for me to continue messing around with you."

Perrenli knew how to find weaknesses through observation later, and Sheriff Chattin was not stupid either.

He would fight with Kaya and Korra mainly to test the upper limit of their strength. As a player who has experienced many battles, this time is enough for him to judge how capable they are.

As soon as these words came out, the two people in the front row suddenly felt something bad. Then they saw Sheriff Chattin waving his war hammer and rushed past the two of them like a pig. Peri Renli and Eve came straight to the rear!

The timing he chose happened to be the gap between the two of them when they moved to avoid the war hammer. He also confirmed the level of their physical abilities and combat skills, so he rushed over without any scruples.

Even when playing games, everyone knows to give priority to the back row, not to mention that Pei Renli and Eve made no secret of their observing eyes behind them. In order to prevent them from actually coming up with any method that can threaten them, naturally

It needs to be killed as soon as possible.

Although compared with the members who went on the first mission to the dam, Kaya, Korra and Eve are not completely inexperienced rookies. Judging from everyone's current performance, they have done quite well, but experience does not mean

It doesn't mean you are a qualified adventurer.

Not to mention the issue of strength, Eve and Perrenli made a very common mistake for novices, they stood too close.

Usually, as long as there are no special circumstances and conditions permit, the people in the back row will maintain a distance that allows them to support each other but can spread out.

This is to prevent someone from being cut into the back row.

Humans are social animals, and they feel more secure when standing with their peers. This is a common mistake made by novices.

So when Sheriff Chattin rushed towards him with an effect like a war trampling, both Eve and Perrenli thought it was coming towards them, and they jumped left and right to avoid it.

--boom!

The explosion of the warhammer hitting the ground echoed in his ears. Pei Renli, who had just avoided it, immediately felt a fierce wind coming from behind, and Sheriff Chatin was aiming at him.

When Pei Renli adds status to others, Sheriff Chatting is all watching, so of course such an auxiliary must be eliminated first.

Without being able to see behind him, he only knew that an attack was coming. In this case, Pei Renli was of course unable to organize any effective counterattack. He could only use his life-saving magic skill to roll on the spot again.

--boom!

Sure enough, it was aimed at him. The impact point of the second hammer was closer to Pei Renli, and the mud and gravel stirred up covered him all over.

But you must know that rolling on the spot is not really invincible. Pei Renli is not a ball and cannot roll far away.

Pei Renli's training during this period of time worked, and he very quickly used the remaining kinetic energy to push his feet on the ground and tried to stand up and eject to start.

But the war hammer fell faster than him, and as soon as he raised his head, the rough attack surface of the war hammer had already been smashed down.

It's obviously not possible to hold out a hand to block it and resist the war hammer with a flesh and blood body. This action is just a conditioned reflex.

With a sudden sound, the war hammer hit down with precision, but before hitting Pei Renli, a layer of ground shield that had been hidden but now emerged protected him.
