Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1523 1495. Killing out of control
The main driving force behind the horse-headed ghost's charge is the strong demonic energy.

However, Ah Xiu's form and skills seemed to be specially designed to deal with this extremely strong evil spirit.

Judging from weight, inertia, body shape and other aspects, it is impossible for Ah Xiu to have any advantage in the collision with the horse-headed ghost.

But the fact is - Ah Xiu directly bumped the horse-headed ghost to a stop!

The difference in strength between the two demonic auras of different natures after the collision is obvious!
"boom!"

This was the sound of energy buzzing after the demonic energy collided, and the ground shaking caused by the horse-headed ghost suddenly stopping.

The huge horse-headed ghost was knocked backwards.

But what is a little strange is that when Ah Xiu was dealing with the strong evil spirit of the bull-headed ghost before, he would basically exit this half-human, half-demon form immediately after the collision.

Even with Lan En's eyesight, he only took a quick glance at it for a split second.

But now Lan En looked at her, and he didn't seem to have any intention of changing back to human form immediately.

Is there any other powerful trick in this form?
Seeing that the turquoise light in Ah Xiu's eyes showed no signs of weakening or returning to normal, Lan En guessed in his heart.

But the speculation in his mind did not affect the actions of his hands.

With a "swish" sound, the soles of Smaug's boots made a sharp and violent friction sound against the ground.

Lan En suddenly appeared at the side of the horse-headed ghost, precisely timing himself at the moment when it was knocked backwards!

His whole body was like a spring with full tension.

The [Muddy Flow·Destruction], which was taller than him, now slanted downward, extending to his left side and to the ground behind him.

As Lan En's core muscles exerted force and twisted, a whistling wind burst out as the huge block of iron stirred the air!
To human ears, this sound is no longer "the wind is flowing" but "the wind is shaking"!
"Om~"

[Water-Shaped Sword·Big Cut]!
The sword left a large black fan-shaped afterimage in the air and slammed upwards towards the waist of the horse-headed ghost!

"Boom~"

The unique collision sound of this greatsword suddenly erupted!

The sword blade smashed towards the horse-headed ghost's waist, first breaking a loose piece of armor on his waist.

Then go deeper into the meat!

Squeeze and push!
Afterwards, a fierce hurricane brought about by the transcendent swordsmanship rushed in madly from the wound that was spewing out golden light mist!
Expand and cut!
The 'sizzling' sound of the sharp wind blades swarming into the meat almost sounded like a meat grinder working!

"Uhhhh!!!"

The horse-headed ghost was already forced to lean back, his mouth rotten to the point where the bones were exposed, and he screamed while pulling at the flesh and blood stuck to the corners of his mouth!
The broad blade of [Turbid Flow·Destruction] had sunk to about half of its waist!
But it is obvious that Lan En is not satisfied with just stopping at "half"!
His excellent flexibility allowed him to lift his foot and kick the motionless blade while holding the hilt of the sword with one hand to control the direction!
At the same time, he formed a seal with his other hand!

[Alder's Seal]!
The landing point of the magic seal was precisely controlled, and the timing of his kick was perfectly synchronized!

Following the loud bang of the sword's blade entering the flesh, another highly recognizable sound, like the evening bell of a church, broke out!

"Bang!!!"

The driving force of the seal and the violence of the muscles are superimposed together!
"Ahhhh!"

The horse-headed ghost's upper body was stiff and twitching.

But the cruel and brutal blade has become more and more excited and violent!
The golden light mist often disappears on the sword before it can burst out from the monster's wound!

The bones were brutally compressed, making a 'kalala' sound.

[Turbid Stream·Destruction] Lan En thrust the broad front end of the sword upwards again! He chopped the spine that was blocking the blade directly!
There was a huge cut on the waist of the horse-headed ghost, spanning three-quarters of the width of its body!

Under the raging appetite of [Turbid Flow·Destruction], this cut looked like a horse-headed ghost that was bitten alive by something, swallowing up a large piece of meat on its waist along with the spine!
After this sword strike, the horse-headed ghost was actually completely unable to resist.

It had completely lost control of its lower body, and couldn't even mobilize its demonic energy to fill the gap in its waist.

The whole body immediately fell to the ground, and its two claws scratched the ground desperately, wailing non-stop.

In the distance, the flannel ball had put away his swords and was running towards here on all fours.

Lan En carried the [Turbid Flow·Destruction] on his shoulder, with no residue left on the sword and all of it eaten up, and prepared to walk to the upper body and head of the horse-headed ghost to drive it back to the underworld completely.

But before they could make a move.

Ah Xiu, who was standing directly in front of the broken body of the horse-headed ghost, had already started moving his half-human, half-demon body.

"Drink!"

She exhaled and began to speak, and in this state her voice seemed to carry an emphasis or echo.

It was as if her human self and her youkai self were speaking at the same time.

After transforming into a monster, there were ribbons floating behind Ah Xiu, just like the ones of fairies in a painting.

And her body was floating in the air.

Lan En now had the opportunity to observe her current appearance in relatively ample time.

The blue keratin layer that looked like armor or decoration covered her body. Under the cover of her transformation into a monster, most of her clothes and weapons from her human state had disappeared.

The pair of ghost horns on the head emitted golden light, and the blue light in the eyes became even brighter.

The blue cuticle on the upper body does not completely cover the body.

On the contrary, the line in the middle of the body, from the chest to the navel, is exposed.

Lan En raised his eyebrows and nodded at the other person's tall, straight and round figure.

But at the same time, the cuticles on Ah Xiu's hands, feet, shoulders and knees appear sharp and rugged.

The feet turned into claws, and two dagger-like weapons automatically appeared on the hands.

After a shout, Ah Xiu curled herself up in mid-air and hugged herself into a ball.

Then he directly crashed into the long chin of the horse-headed ghost who was struggling to death!
The horse-headed ghost's broken body tilted back as if it had been hit by a heavy uppercut.

When Ah Xiu was hit, her body, curled up into a ball, kept spinning.

This caused the sharp parts of her body to act like turbine blades, leaving hideous and cruel scars on the horse-headed ghost's body.

After that, Ah Xiu stretched out his body in the air, and held the two blue daggers in his hands before the horse-headed ghost's head fell.

It nailed directly into both sides of its head, nailing its head to the ground with a bang!
At this point, the horse-headed ghost had already died on the spot.

Its body, weapons, and armor all turned into black smoke and dissipated.

There was only a thing that looked like the 'deformed heart' left behind by the Bull-Headed Ghost, floating in the air along with the rise and fall of evil spirit.

Lan En originally thought that it was a big deal. After all, as long as the evil ghost died, he didn't care too much whether he did it himself or not.

But then.

Lan En, who was just nodding at the other person's figure, frowned within a few seconds.

Although the horse-headed ghost had completely disappeared, Ah Xiu still had no intention of coming out of her half-human, half-demon state.

Not only that
In Lan En's [Spiritual Vision], the demonic energy on the other party was becoming more and more vigorous, and the flow was disordered!
It manifested itself on Ah Xiu's originally quiet and gentle face, and her expression began to turn ferocious. Her blue eyes also began to glow red!

The feeling of that pair of red eyes is exactly the same as that of the horse-headed ghost that just disappeared!
"Fluff ball, don't come over here yet."

Lan En said this calmly, and at the same time, he thrust the greatsword on his shoulder into the ground with a "puff".

"Ah, don't you need help, meow?"

The fluffy ball was originally trotting on all fours, but after Lan En spoke, it stood up in confusion.

But just as Elu Cat's voice had just finished speaking!

"Dang!!!"

A sound different from that of [Muddy Flow·Destruction] chopping and smashing objects, a collision sound burst out from the collision of steel and spread out melodiously!

A ray of silver light poured out softly and lightly from Lan En's waist.

When the sword of the Lady of the Lake was unsheathed, the witcher's extraordinary swordsmanship was almost doubtful. The blade was made of light flowing like water, not cold, hard and solid steel.

Two blue daggers glowing with supernatural power chiseled over.

But long before they could chisel down, the long knife like water had naturally blocked their way.

Given Ah Xiu's floating state after transforming into a monster, any attacks she launches against humans should give her the advantage of being on high ground.

But in front of Lan En, even if she was floating, her head was just level with him.

Just as Lan En had worried, the pretty and charming half-demon's face before him had become so ferocious that even its canine teeth had grown a little.

"Is it the evil spirit that has clouded your brain?"

A long sword and two short swords were pressed against each other, making a faint "crackling" sound during the wrestling.

Lan En's hands were steady, and his knife was steady, too.

Behind his long sword, his cat eyes slightly frowned as he observed the demon hunter who had just fought side by side with him to kill the evil ghost, but now looked like a mad dog.

"Half-demon, half-human blood, holding dangerous power, the risk of losing control, and self-enhancement after losing control"

Lan En muttered calmly, while Ah Xiu, who had transformed into a monster, gritted his teeth and tried to stab the two daggers in his hands into the neck of the creature in front of him, but he could not get any progress.

"This really is like the treatment of a passionate protagonist, Xiu."

Unfortunately, even if the other party was awake, he couldn't understand Lan En's complaints, let alone now.

With a swish, the air made a swirling explosion!
