Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1590 1562. Collapse
But it didn't work out.

After the wandering monk’s staff was knocked away, he didn’t want to continue to argue and simply floated away.

But Lan En's sword was too fast and too accurate.

The staff that Youfang Monk withdrew was creating a crack in the air.

In the space cracks created by his secret method, a purple-black halo flowed continuously.

But at the same time, the thin blade of the Sword of the Lady of Lann Lake had already cut into the tattered monk's robe from the side!

The wandering monk's expression remained unchanged. He simply used his other hand and arm to forcefully block in front of his body.

He raised his forearm and blocked the path of the knife together with his upper arm.

Half of his forearm, including the wrist and palm, was cut off by Lan's long knife.

The upper arm folded behind was also cut in by Lan En in at least half.

But it was during this brief moment that the crack in space that he had just created with the tin staff suddenly moved forward and swallowed his body.

At the same time, Lan En's left hand was already pressing on the [Demon Wolf's Fang] on his lower back.

But in the end, he did not break through the space crack where the other party was hiding and chase in.

Lan En had already experienced this guy's skills in manipulating space when he first met him in Chang Zai Temple.

He did not simply cut through the space between his current location and his destination and arrive there in one step.

Instead, he first constructed a space of his own in the space cracks as a transit and channel.

Although Lan En didn't know what he could do in that space, logically speaking, it would definitely have many advantages over the normal earth.

And what the other party said before, 'I am immortal'.
I also don't know whether it's true or not, but considering what the other party has done, as well as their means and power, it can't be regarded as empty talk.

Lan En glanced sideways at the wrist and hand he had chopped off lying on the ground.

In the ochre-yellow and green flames, it was gradually dispelled and disappeared like ordinary foul air.

But the hand itself is definitely not dead yet.

"Sure enough." Lan En swung the blade in the air beside him as if to stimulate blood.

Then, the power of the guardian spirit that covered the whole body and the blade disappeared like a flame being extinguished with a Qilin's roar.

Arondite already had the power to destroy evil, and even if he did not use the [Light of the Two Sacred Trees] at full power, the scars caused were terrifying enough for evil things.

What's more, the blade just now also has the power of [Guardian Spirit·Qilin].

If an ordinary monster had been cut by the blade just now, all the foul aura of the monster would have been exorcised.

"It's not ordinary stuff."

Lan En was impressed by the extraordinary nature of the wandering monk.

And in the space crack that was flashing with black and purple light, Monk Youfang himself was also looking at his feet.

That was the stump of his upper arm that he had just chopped off with the tip of his staff like a gun blade.

The remaining upper arm, along with part of the shoulder, was chopped off by himself.

At this time, the khaki-green and green flames were rapidly devouring the remains that had separated from the body.

Soon, the wreckage that had no power to replenish was purified by [Thick Earth and Pure Air].

The wandering monk remained calm as he easily controlled the huge amount of foul and evil spirits and absorbed them into his body.

It was as if he had a natural control and dominance over these filthy things, and no matter how different the quality and quantity of these things were, they were all the same to him.

The arm reappeared, but Monk Youfang's expression did not look optimistic.

He tilted his head and looked at his arm, which corresponded to the place where it was cut by the demon hunter.

There was a knife scar on the middle part of the forearm and the middle part of the upper arm.

Compared with the one on his chest, the knife mark was much thinner and weaker, but it still flashed with a holy light like misty starlight.

The light was stimulated by his demonic energy and only flashed for a moment, and then a small sizzling sound like barbecue was emitted.

The corner of Monk Youfang's mouth twitched, but he said nothing more and walked deeper into the space rift.

Lan En didn't know where the wandering monk had gone.

For the time being, Lan En wouldn't really take it seriously unless there was a plan and means to completely kill him.

He had more pressing things to do right now.

With a snap, Ah Xiu grabbed Lan En's arm.

She had just protected her sisters during the sudden but short and fierce battle between Lan En and Monk Youfang.

At this time, she was still holding her sister, whose eyes, mouth, ears and nostrils were constantly oozing black liquid.

Saito Yoshitatsu looked like he was about to turn into something like oil and melt away!
Ah Xiu held Lan En's hand, her tender yet strong eyes now revealed pleading and helplessness.

"I know what you mean." Lan En glanced at Saito Yoshitatsu's condition and said bluntly, "But not now. Take her away first! This place is going to collapse!"

This place is really going to collapse.

At this moment, or if we go forward a little further in time, at the moment when the dust settled after Ah Xiu killed Yilong, this giant structure supported by the power of spirit stones was about to collapse!
At that moment, most of the monsters in the monster army suddenly stiffened, and then foul air like black smoke came out of their bodies, polluting the human world. If there is no corresponding means to deal with it, the area around Iwamura Castle will probably become a ghost den within a few weeks.

But that was all later. At the moment, this meant that those monsters were suddenly weakened to death!

These are all monsters that were quickly created by Saito Yoshitatsu using the power of spirit stones and secret methods.

After Yilong was defeated and was close to death, the wandering monk appeared and demonstrated his control over the foul and demonic spirits with a wave of his hand.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to use his staff to hold back Aarondite who was wrapped in [Thick Earth and Pure Air].

When confronting this divine weapon, every minute and every second was spent using demonic energy to create an evenly matched opponent!
The demonic energy of these quickly-formed monsters was taken away and squandered by the wandering monk.

The entire giant structure that is interconnected and crisscrossed also relies on the secret method performed by Saito Yoshitatsu.

At this time, the maintainer of the secret method was on the verge of death. It was not in conformity with the principles of mechanical structure and architecture. The structure supported solely by the flying bricks with the power of spiritual stones would of course collapse!

Ah Xiu pursed her lips and nodded, then hugged her increasingly weak sister in her arms and ran away.

"Your Highness! Your Highness?!"

The voices of Akechi Mitsuhide and Hanbei also rose and fell, echoing in this chaotic yet empty giant structure.

The structure here causes the sound to be reflected everywhere, making it difficult to tell where it comes from.

"Bring people down immediately! Evacuate!" Lan En didn't care which direction they were actually in, and shouted, "This place is going to collapse, retreat quickly!"

"Your Highness's voice! Where is it?"

"Follow orders, retreat quickly!"

This giant structure had only torn apart a section of the wall of Iwamura Castle, and the number of defenders brought along was not too large.

They were led by Akechi Mitsuhide and Hanbei to retreat in a hurry.

At this time, the scattered rubble had already fallen like large, destructive hailstones.

It hit the ground with a dull, heavy and continuous 'bang bang' sound.

"Kirin!"

Lan En rubbed the magic ring on his hand, and soon, a blue and white figure appeared, jumping closer on the messy and torn ground.

"Boss, we're here meow!"

The flannel ball held the unicorn's mane with one hand and placed its other paw on its head as if to block the rain.

It is cute, but it makes people wonder whether these little claws can really have any effect on the rubble that is beginning to collapse?

The fluff ball jumped onto Lan's shoulder out of habit, and the witcher had previously scanned this spectacular structure supported by spiritual stones with his eyes.

I immediately communicated with Qilin.

"Blow up these places above, and be more accurate, can you do it?"

Lan En planned to artificially break the top of the structure, where the force was most unreasonable, so that this unreasonable weight would no longer put pressure on the entire structure.

It will collapse anyway, but at least it can be delayed for a considerable amount of time.

At this time, Lan En and Mentos, who had transformed into architectural designers, repeated the calculations and verifications in their minds three times before finally handing the "construction drawings" to the contractor Qilin.

"Xilulu!"

Qilin raised his head.

Although it is usually very playful and lazy, it will take on the responsibility when something really happens.

Before, because I didn’t understand, I thought these stone beams were too brittle and didn’t dare to summon thunder.

Now that they had a target, without saying anything, the surrounding electronic environment began to become abnormal due to Qilin's efforts.

Arcs of electricity began to flash on the scattered weapons and armor on the ground, and the magnetic materials turned out from the ground began to fly automatically.

The dark clouds in the sky thundered down several times in succession, and the stone beams were broken or burned. The heavy structure even made the sound of the wind falling down seem so dull that it was terrifying.

The falling stone beam had a calculated falling process and did not hit the rest of the structure, it only created waves of soil on the ground.

The frequency of stones falling from the other stone beams also suddenly decreased a lot.

Lan En let Qilin use its amazing speed to run a trip on its own.

After confirming that there were no more people on the structure, they immediately evacuated.

The rebellion launched by Saito Yoshitatsu in Mino was basically put down after the enemy's main general was defeated by Axiu.

However, the end of the war did not mean that the situation had calmed down. On the contrary, the ripples on the lake surface only began to spread after the stone was completely submerged in the water.

At least half of Iwamura Castle was destroyed. Although there was no major population deficit, the Ando family's castle was destroyed during the Saito family's civil war, and the Saito family had to give an explanation.

After Meinong experienced a large-scale rebellion, the people's hearts and governance also needed to be sorted out from scratch.

But these can be discussed later.

The most important thing right now is
“Doctor! Where is the doctor?!” Saito Dosan yelled like a raging beast, “Yoshitatsu! Hold on! [Magic Medicine]! There must be [Magic Medicine] here! Ando, ​​give me the [Magic Medicine]! Now!”
