FATE: Target of Grand Master

"Oh? A sword and a gun, that's a rather unusual fighting style."

The leopard man also got excited, and the two immediately began their second round of combat.

Feng Yan, who was watching from the sidelines, ran to Blackbeard's side and used a recovery potion on him. Then, he used his telepathy to communicate with Diarmuid, saying, "Diarmuid, if you have the chance, it's okay to defeat him, but don't kill him."

"Yes, ma'am."

The leopard-man swung his tiger claw club at Diarmuid, who raised his "Red Rose of Spellbreaker" to block it. The leopard-man immediately jumped up, caught the spinning tiger claw club, and brought it down heavily on Diarmuid's position.

Diarmuid did not choose to fight head-on, but skillfully dodged the attack, then turned his body and unleashed a horizontal slash of "Great Wrath".

In the previous battle, Diarmuid had been using the yellow short sword "Minor Wrath" to attack, while using the red longsword "Great Wrath" for blocking and defense. In addition, he deliberately replaced "Minor Wrath" with "Red Rose of the Spellbreaker" to draw the jaguar man's attention to the red spear. At this moment, Diarmuid's unexpected attack with the red longsword was to ensure that the one-hit kill brought by "Great Wrath" would be successful.

This is also the experience he gleaned from his battles with Xia Yan, including Cú Chulainn and countless other battles, both large and small, that followed.

The one-hit kill of "Great Wrath" is only the sword's first kill, but not Diarmuid's first attack.

Pfft!

Diarmuid's tactics were successful.

The red longsword severed the leopard man's tiger claw club and tore a huge gash in the abdomen of his tiger skin suit.

Bright red blood seeped out, proving that the red longsword had indeed caused damage to the leopard man.

"it hurts!"

The leopard-man clutched his wound and jumped back to create distance.

"You're quite capable, managing to hurt me. Your attack just now must have had some kind of guaranteed hit or guaranteed damage effect, right?"

Diarmuid was not surprised that the leopard man could guess the effect of his attack.

The other party is a god; to be able to harm him with just a human body is already an achievement that one can boast about to one's descendants for a lifetime.

"Oh, what a pity about my suit. I need to go back and change. Bye!"

After saying that, the leopard-man leaped into the dense forest and disappeared without a trace.

Are you more concerned about the suit than your own injuries?

Diarmuid couldn't quite understand the god's thought process.

Feng Yan was even more speechless. He appeared on his own, beat up the black-bearded man, and then ran away on his own, without even saying a word to Feng Yan.

However, considering that the other party was a leopard man, everything seemed to make sense.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Feng Yan glanced at Blackbeard's injuries; they weren't too serious. He then said, "Let's keep going. Our goal this time is to persuade Quetzal to join us. How can we back down just because we've encountered a leopard-man?"

"Yes, ma'am."

Diarmuid wanted to continue carrying Ginako on his back, but Ginako refused.

"I'll just walk by myself; consider it a way to lose weight."

Although Gina is a homebody, she is not someone who doesn't consider the bigger picture.

As can be seen from the battle just now, Diarmuid is their biggest asset and needs to lead the way. Blackbeard is injured, and Andersen will not dispel his spirit form. He is not shameless enough to ask his Master to carry him, so he is left with no choice but to walk the path by himself.

Feng Yan handed Gina a handheld electric fan, a daily necessity he had brought from the safe house.

"Very good!"

Gina happily accepted the electric fan.

And so, Feng Yan and his group quickly arrived at Ur City, nestled in the dense forest.

In the original work, this is the city protected by Quetzalcoatl. The able-bodied men in the city have been taken away by Quetzalcoatl for training under the guise of wrestling, and the vast majority of the rest are women, children and the elderly.

Feng Yan and his companions asked the citizens of Ur about the location of the Feathered Serpent God, but the citizens did not give them a reply. Instead, they looked at them with a wary gaze.

"Hmph. They are all citizens protected by Kukulkan, and they would never betray your intelligence."

The leopard-man, now wearing a brand-new tiger skin suit, stood on the city gate and uttered that classic line to Feng Yan and his group below.

"If you want to see Kukulkan, try defeating me first!"

The leopard-man pulled out a brand-new tiger claw club and launched an attack on Feng Yan and the others.

"Lord Pantherman, then let me, Diarmuid Ua Duibhne, continue the battle that has yet to be decided."

"Okay, I won't be careless this time either, meow."

The two immediately engaged in combat.

Having already demonstrated the effects of "Great Wrath," Diarmuid didn't employ any tricks this time, simply displaying the level expected of a top knight of the Fiona Order.

"It seems that the previous move wasn't a technique that could be used all the time."

The leopard-man keenly sensed the change in Diarmuid's fighting style.

"However, even so, your fighting skills are enough to make me use my full strength."

The leopard-man displayed even greater speed and agility than in previous battles, moving with the nimbleness of a cheetah in the jungle. But this was not the most terrifying aspect of the leopard-man.

clang!

Diarmuid crossed his red spear and red sword to block the leopard man's tiger claw club.

Judging from Diarmuid's slightly contorted expression as he exerted force, the leopard man was using considerable strength on the tiger claw club, just like a tiger hunting its prey.

Feng Yan, who had been watching from the sidelines, had been silently observing everything.

Although the two sides are currently evenly matched, as time goes by, Diarmuid will gradually lose strength and eventually be defeated by the leopard man.

I have to think of a way.

He looked at Gina, who was eating a banana, and said with a smile, "Gina, how about you do some post-meal exercise after you finish eating?"

"Ah~"

Gina made a very reluctant sound.

"Those games we just played..."

"Feng Yan, you're not going to go back on your word, are you? Aren't you the one who hates broken promises the most? You can't be so hypocritical!"

Gina could express her protest.

Did I say I wouldn't give it to you?

Feng Yan smiled.

"I'm actually considering whether to open another game room for you, in addition to the games we just played. Playing alone is definitely not as fun as playing with others, don't you think?"

"Hmm, that's a good idea. So, what do you want me to do?"

"Gina is indeed clever, that makes things easier. I will compress you and then bounce you towards the leopard man. You will need to use your Noble Phantasm on the leopard man the moment you return to your original size. We can only win by surprise."

Although Gina was somewhat bothered by the thought of being flicked away by Feng Yan's finger, she decided to carry out the plan for the sake of the game room.

"You have to keep your word."

Feng Yan placed his hand on Gina's shoulder, and Gina began to shrink at a visible rate until she was only the size of Feng Yan's fingernail.

Feng Yan supported Gina with his left palm, and bent his right index finger, touching it with his thumb to form a circle, like flicking a pebble.

After aiming for a moment, Feng Yan decisively released his right index finger, and Gina flew straight towards the area where Diarmuid was fighting the leopard man under the elastic force of Feng Yan's right index finger.
