The Divine Hunter Chapter 45: Flame
"Puff, puff..." Heavy footsteps left deep footprints in the snow on the ground.
The witcher gently brushed the snow and pine needles off his shoulders, looked up at the sparrows in the forest that were startled,
"How far is it from the destination?"
"No more than half an hour." The white-haired dwarf behind him took a few deep breaths, flushed and rushed to the demon hunter's side. "The body was found under the oldest pine tree in front of us." The dwarf kept looking left and right. , said nervously, "Master Leisuo, there won't be any problems between the two of us, right? Don't we need to call more people?"
"A large number of people will cause trouble. Now let's talk about the identity of the deceased."
"Give me a two-minute break. Your steps are so fast. How could that kid keep up before?"
The dwarf rested for a moment with his knees propped up. When alone together, Kelvin's attitude was not as mean as he was towards Roy, and his demeanor and tone were respectful.
"The deceased's name is Adria, he is eighty years old, a mine worker, and has a son and a daughter in Carbon Mountain."
The white-haired dwarf hesitated for a second, "The remaining three deceased dwarves had similar backgrounds. They were all mine workers. They had an accident while returning to Carbon Mountain after get off work."
Reso rubbed the rough bark of the tree next to him, "The confidentiality work was done well. The villagers of Sponsor thought that the dead were only four humans."
The dwarf smiled helplessly and said, "There is no way. If they know that the Mahakam guard has been killed, how can they work with peace of mind? The mine will suffer losses. In order not to cause large-scale panic, the news must be blocked, but it cannot be hidden for long. ”
"A group of vampires." Leisuo shook his head.
"Who spread the rumor and told the villagers that the murderer was a demon?"
"I don't know, I hope the rumors come true, at least the monsters won't be too scary to deal with."
The two turned around the hillside, and the entrance to the forest could no longer be seen clearly.
"Master Leisuo, do you sympathize with those villagers?"
The witcher remained silent.
Kelvin continued, "As far as I know, demon hunters suffer from verbal discrimination and insults in human society. No matter how many monsters you help humans get rid of or how many lives you save, you are still regarded as monsters by them."
"What's the difference between a watchdog that comes when called and goes away when called away?"
The dwarf emphasized his tone, quickly raised his head to observe the witcher's expression, and was disappointed to see that the other man's face remained unchanged.
"Tell me your thoughts directly, don't beat around the bush."
"Okay." Kelvin shrugged and quickened his pace. "I think the demon hunters and the ancient races are on the same side. They are aliens in the eyes of humans. You have been wandering around and accepting commissions, but you have never thought of settling down in one place?"
"For example?"
"For example, Carbon Mountain." The dwarf took a breath and spoke from the bottom of his heart, "With your skill and profound knowledge, Carbon Mountain will give you a position that satisfies you."
"Recruit me?" The demon hunter suddenly stopped and turned around, staring directly at the dwarf with his amber pupils.
"Mahakam and Carbon Mountain are too cold and boring, not suitable for my temperament. In addition, I still have important responsibilities, so I can't stay in Carbon Mountain for too long." Putting these words aside, the demon hunter continued Move forward,
A trace of anger flashed across the rejected dwarf's face, and he quickly regained his composure.
"Let's get back to this case. Do you have any clues about the murderer?"
As soon as the dwarf finished speaking, the demon hunter stopped and made a silencing gesture towards him, then slightly arched his body like a cheetah.
We have just entered the forest for about a mile, and there are more pine trees covered with snow. However, the surroundings suddenly become quiet. There is no sound of small animals, and even the sound of wind disappears. It is as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, which makes people scalp. tingling.
The dwarf hurriedly swung his war hammer, and he had the illusion that the pine trees around him changed strangely, turning into men with stiff expressions, staring coldly.
His hands were shaking slightly, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Boo——"
Leso bit off the cork of the potion in one bite. As his Adam's apple rolled, he swallowed the liquid in the bottle. A purple-black blood vessel like an earthworm crawled along his chin and covered his cheek.
The strong demon hunter's body is full of muscles, like an angry beast.
"Stay close to my back and cover each other."
The demon hunter said in a deep voice, and their backs were instantly close to each other.
His right hand quickly drew a triangular rune in mid-air.
A faint green light shined brightly along the transparent traces. As the dwarf was stunned, a circular array with a radius of about twenty feet emerged from the snow-covered ground.
Immediately after the yellow light circulated, Kunen's shield enveloped the demon hunter.
Almost at the same time, countless wolves emerged from the gaps in the surrounding forest amid endless roars.
With gray fur, emerald green eyes, and scarlet mouths spitting hot air, the wolves lowered their bodies and let out low roars, approaching the two of them step by step.
"Mahakan, what's going on? I wasn't so unlucky before when I went into the forest to investigate!"
“Because we make ‘it’ feel threatened.”
The demon hunter said in a deep voice, and drew out the steel sword from his back instead of the dagger.
As soon as the steel sword covered with a layer of sword oil was unsheathed, it was highlighted by the white light of the snow with an evil aura. The demon hunter's muscular hands sank down, placing the hilt on his waist, and the blade tilted upward. , like a plow for plowing the land.
"Woo woo... ow woo..."
"Come on! Please your master and attack me!"
The demon hunter's face was expressionless, but his words were extremely sarcastic.
The wandering wolves seemed to be suddenly enraged and rushed into the Arden circle crazily. The magic circle flashed with green light, and the binding power took effect. The wolves who stepped in were shackles of magic power, and their bodies suddenly sank, and their flexibility was immediately reduced by three points.
"Bang!" The white-haired dwarf slammed the wolf that was charging at him to the ground with a hammer. The snowy ground was stained with a layer of blood red, and the wolf corpse under the hammer instantly turned into minced meat.
“It’s so **** cool!”
He roared, strode forward, and swung the warhammer in his hand to create a slanted arc in mid-air, while simultaneously knocking away the beasts coming from both sides!
The demon hunter behind him has a different style. His body is slightly bowed, his steel sword is stored at his waist, his left foot is in front and his right foot is behind him in a T-step, forming an explosive posture, like a full-stringed bow. Bow and arrow.
The wolf shadow rushed towards him, the blade of the sword was like a plow breaking through the earth, it thrust upward diagonally, and the sword pierced into the flesh. The steel sword was inserted into the wolf corpse, and it was slashed again. The demon hunter stepped forward, and the second wolf was chopped into two pieces from the waist.
The internal organs were all over the floor.
The demon hunter shook his wrist, flicked the flesh and blood off the sword, and then retreated into the magic circle. He continued to maintain the "plow posture" and used the simplest stabs and slashes to deal with the wolves.
The bright sword blade turned into the sickle of death under his hands. Every time he struck out with his sword, he would definitely take away a life. The wild beast could not get into him for three weeks, and his body was lying in the snow.
A trace of blood splashed onto the demon hunter's cheek, and the twisted black blood vessels looked even more monstrous.
In the blink of an eye, more than five wolves died under the hands of the two men, but they were insignificant compared to the hundreds of beasts.
The blood of the same kind inspired their ferocity, and they accelerated their attack speed with long howls, rushing in from all directions like a tide.
The key target of attack is Kelvin, who is obviously one point weaker!
“Damn, there are more rats than the wine cellar!”
The dwarf's white hair was blown back by the strong wind. He hit the warhammer in his hand and knocked one off. He took a breath and took a step back slightly embarrassed, but there was another guy watching at the side. , took the opportunity to bite his left leg.
Whoosh——
White light flashed, and a flying knife penetrated the wolf's waist,
"Man, can you still hold on?"
"Don't worry, no... no problem!" The dwarf grasped the war hammer again with trembling fingers and smashed another beast to death with one hammer.
The demon hunter's amber pupils quickly scanned the densely packed beasts in front of him~IndoMTL.com~Twenty to thirty were gathered in a pile.
The density has reached the bottom line he expected, so he grabbed the earthen jar from his waist and threw it into the wolves.
The round alchemy bomb detonated twenty feet away from the two of them. The explosion resounded through the forest, and the flames instantly drowned dozens of wolves.
The smell of blood, wailing, and barbecue filled the surroundings, and most of the wolves wandering in front of the two men were cleared away.
Wolf carcasses covered in black and on fire lay all over the vast snow. A few of them were lucky enough not to be killed on the spot, but turned around and rushed into their own team with flames.
"Mahakan, what a perfect bomb!"
The dwarf forgot his nervousness and was left with only admiration.
It’s not over yet!
As the demon hunter turned around, he flexibly outlined with his fingers and struck another Seal of Alder, knocking away the wolves rushing behind him and clearing the space.
Throw the second alchemical bomb.
This time there was no immediate explosion. Amidst the sound of the porcelain jar breaking, a burst of thick white smoke quickly spread and enveloped a large group of beasts.
The range is wider, more than thirty heads.
The witcher pulled the dwarf close, inserted his sword into the snow with one hand, and quickly drew an afterimage with his five fingers. He pushed forward suddenly, and the orange cone-shaped fire tongue spurted out for ten seconds and ignited the white smoke.
The diffuse gas was detonated by the fire snake, and the fire clouds erupted in series from near to far.
In an instant, crazy wails and explosions filled the entire pine forest.
Fifteen seconds later, the wailing started intermittently. The pack of hundreds of wolves was completely dispersed by the bombs. A small number of them fled with their tails between their legs, half of them lay on the ground and turned into corpses, and the remaining few were dying.
There was only one tall figure standing proudly in the entire snowy forest. As he dispersed the seal, the light yellow Kunen shield shattered like bubbles.
