Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1498 1470. Ghost Hunting

Wuming was not unfamiliar with the vengeful ghost in front of him.

The pair of large horns on its head already reveal its identity as a ghost.

The so-called vengeful ghost is a huge red ghost formed by the accumulation of countless vengeful spirits!
It's about the same size as Ape Ghost or Lan En, and can be held in one hand!

It usually appears in places where a large number of lives have died, the situation has not been properly handled, and resentment is rampant.

It is a monster born from resentment!
Moreover, this kind of monster can at least call out [Eternal Darkness] on its own!

Of its two vertically divided expressions, the angry half was burning with rage, while the resentful half was filled with filthy black smoke.

All over his body, the vengeful spirits that had piled up like ghosts were making strange noises all the time.

This horrifying appearance, as well as the anger and resentment emanating from it, is enough to make an ordinary person seriously ill just by looking at it!
Not to mention, now that this huge, ever-dark center had been created, it was cooperating at the other end of the road, blocking them in the middle!

The man in the center of the darkness looked like an ordinary monk, but if Wuming really believed it, he would be crazy!
No matter what, since the other party can control vengeful ghosts, there is no reason for him to be weaker than them!
Immediately!

Wuming had a beauty mole on her face, and the corners of her slightly opened mouth suddenly clenched!
"Crack!"

The mechanism on the naginata sickle activated, and sparks flew.

The sound of the giant sickle being swung in the wind was accompanied by swift movements, and the fur cloak was blown up!
Wuming's waist swung rhythmically in an instant, and through the swing of core strength, he exerted multiple forces on the giant sickle in his hand!
[Naginata sickle: Concentrated craftsmanship]!
After swinging it in a circle, two horizontal slashes to the left and right left visual afterimages in the air!

But this is not aimed at the enemy, but at the wooden ground!

In just a moment, on the suspended ground floor that Chang Temple had spent a lot of money to build and maintain for dozens or even hundreds of years, there was a sound of "Karala"!
The multi-layered wooden floor that had been dried in the shade and soaked in tung oil, and was strong and resilient, was violently torn apart by the sickle! The sound of it overturning!

The originally expensive and neat wooden floor was torn directly by Wuming's sickle, leaving two jagged and violent marks on the left and right!

The wood chips flew and shattered into two pieces of smoke on the left and right!
"Kirin!"

Wuming shouted without even turning her head. She hadn't even finished her move yet.

The ancient dragons in the New World haven't reacted yet.

But Lan En already understood——

Wuming wanted to directly demolish this area of ​​the suspended Buddhist temple!
Even if she had to drag the vengeful ghost down with her and have them deal with each other separately, she absolutely did not want to be caught in the middle of the mountain trail and fought between two groups of enemies in front and behind!

Fight them separately, at least they only have to deal with one. At present, this monk who is the center of the darkness has no foundation. If he has the ability to cooperate with the ghost, they will be in trouble if they are caught in the middle!
So Lan En made the decision immediately and came to the same idea as Wu Ming almost at the same time.

So, before Wuming's voice calling Qilin fell, Lan En greeted the ancient dragon of the New World without even turning his head.

"Kirin!"

Qilin’s trust and understanding of Lan En is certainly much higher than that of Wu Ming.

It didn't know what ignorance meant, so it was a little hesitant.

But as soon as Lan En opened his mouth, it neighed reflexively!
"Xilulu!"

Crackling blue lightning swirled and connected to the unicorn's horns and the growth of lenses that broke through the skin on its shoulder blades.

The standing Qilin makes the calico kitten on its back, pulling its mane, look like a brave little knight riding a horse.

"Meow!"

With the encouragement of the flannel ball, the Qilin's thundering hooves stomped straight down!

'Boom' a mixed explosion sound!

The solid wood that had supported the Buddhist temple for dozens or hundreds of years was shattered, and even the rocks that served as supporting points were shattered and torn out in large pieces!

All these things were mixed together, and along with the vengeful ghost that had just emerged from the [Eternal World], they fell down together!
Also falling down with him were Wuming, Qilin and the fluffy ball, who had already prepared themselves mentally.

The famous suspended Buddha main hall of Changzai Temple was cut and marked by Wuming and stomped by Qilin.

About one third of the area collapsed and hit the mountain ground which was more than ten meters high.

Inside the main hall, the gold-painted Buddha statue swayed as the foundation shook and tilted, and finally fell down.

Everything happened in a flash of lightning.

From the time the vengeful ghost suddenly appeared to the time the courtyard gate of the Buddhist temple opened, it was only a second or less than two seconds.

The joint decision of Wuming and Lan En, and the final execution by Qilin.

All happened in this short period of time.

As the person who was looking directly at the dark center on the stone steps at the gate of the courtyard, Lan En also saw the monk clearly. His expression changed from complacent and vicious to surprised, angry, and finally hardened.

"Destroying my Buddhist temple is a heinous crime!"

The monk's face twitched and he spoke with a trembling voice.

"Yoshitatsu, that bastard who stole the Saito clan's name, is letting you guys go as the vanguard and die?"

"It sounds like you are very resentful."

Lan En said this without any nervousness. Under the wreckage behind him, which had already collapsed, pieces of wood and stone continued to fall.

The chaotic screams of the many vengeful spirits on the ghost's body, the sound of weapons breaking through the air, and the crackling sound of thunder all suddenly arose.

The originally silent temple became noisy and tense.

But Lan En, his left hand was on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and he didn't even have the intention of drawing the sword, and his words were quite polite.

"I guess with your attire and your elegant demeanor, you must be the Rihu monk who lives in the temple?"

"Then I can understand your resentment. After all."

"He's the dead bastard from the Nagai family!"

On the stone steps, Master Rihu's face suddenly froze.

This was not because he was shocked that Lan En dared to have such an impolite conversation with him under such circumstances.

After all, in the eyes of Master Higo, the army that invaded Jōzai-ji Temple on Jūrinzan must have been secretly dispatched by Saito Yoshitatsu and communicated with traitors, and these few people were just the vanguard who were sent to die.

They are now isolated and helpless, which is indeed a big disadvantage.

But after Lan Engang finished speaking, all that was left on Master Rihu's face was a gloomy and fierce anger!

But almost at the same time as his anger reached his face, in addition to the distortion of his expression, there was also a clear silver light!

【Acceleration Technique】!
[Water-Shaped Sword·Shrinking the Earth]!
The tall figure under the stone steps in the distance disappeared like smoke in the dark gray and white tones.

When it appeared again, the sharp and graceful blade of the long sword was almost cutting horizontally into Master Rihu's forehead!
With Lan's knife skills and Arondate's sharpness, with this cut, the top of his skull and the upper half of his brain would be cut smoothly and then fly out under the impact.

The teasing but non-murderous expression on Lan En's face was still there, as if his actions and expression were completely unrelated.

However, the cold and sharp feeling of the Sword of the Lady of the Lake was enough to make the hairs on Master Rihu's face stand up and his pupils shrink suddenly!

He didn't react at all!
Lan's movement speed will force the target who is fighting him to increase the rhythm of the battle to an extremely fast speed and high efficiency.

If he can't keep up, then the target may not have the power to fight back at all.

It is foreseeable that after he installs the next enhanced organ [neural node] on himself, his reaction speed should be further enhanced.

This superb and efficient fighting style will be further improved simultaneously.

With the reaction speed of Master Rihu, normally, a single encounter would be enough to decide life or death.

But the big monk didn't react, but the things around him had already reacted.

"Choke!"

There was a loud bang of steel colliding, accompanied by the flash of sparks!

Two small pieces of paper cut and folded into abstract human shapes floated out from the wide sleeves of Master Higurashi's gorgeous robes.

One of the paper figures suddenly emitted foul black smoke, and then a weapon that was roughly similar in shape to the naginata sickle in Wuming's hand, but appeared to be rougher and more twisted, and even a bit randomly spliced ​​together, blocked Lan En's horizontal blade!
"Whoa whoa!"

From the black smoke came wild and bloody shouts as weapons were extended, as if they were eager to start a killing spree.

Lan En narrowed his eyes slightly, and without any delay, he used the [Acceleration Spell] again!
With a sharp friction sound, the demon hunter dodged away neatly and smoothly like the most skilled Yharnam hunter.

And the next moment, the blade was covered with sharp edges, and a large sickle like several broken blades randomly pieced together swept across the place where Lan En was originally.

But it could only cut the visual afterimage he left into two parts.

The thing in the black smoke has completely transformed from a paper man.

It was a thing that looked very similar to a monkey ghost to Lan En.

However, the ape ghost only has a single horn on its head, while it has a pair of golden crystal horns on its head.

And compared to the clothes that the ape-gui casually put on as if he was wearing them for fun, it had obvious traces of armor on its body.

And even though this armor is old and tattered, why does it look like a damaged version of the one Wuming is wearing? !

In a split second, Lan En swept across the opponent's arm guards and cuffs, which were obviously made of some kind of monster's finger bones and had a very distinctive structure.

And the fur cloak on the other person's back. Is it growing on the back?

In addition, there is the naginata sickle, a weapon that Wuming calls the "secret weapon of the Chuye Ya clan".

A monster hunter turned into a monster?
It looks like this monk used Yin-Yang magic or Buddhist magic to capture the Shikigami?
"So disrespectful!"

It was not until this moment that cold sweat suddenly broke out on Master Rihu's forehead and neck, and his face looked pale even in the darkness.

The fear of being unable to react in time and almost being killed instantly made him stagger back a step unconsciously.

The arm beneath the robe was raised, pointed viciously at Lan En.

"Ghost hunting ghost! Kill him!"
