Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1704 1676. The Evil Ghost Appears
[Body Light], this kind of protective power, is not often manifested in Lan En.

Because it only responds to high-level, high-quality forces, ordinary threats cannot even trigger it.

And its expression is also very gentle.

In a normal lighting background, there is nothing special about Lan En turning on [Body Light]. It just appears that there is a thin, hazy light around him, like an illusion.

More often than not, people would wonder: Is it because this person is too beautiful that she or he looks outstanding in the eyes of bystanders?

However, against the background of the pale copper-green light column, this layer of light appears extremely eye-catching!
A layer of [Body Light] ignites from the fist and then covers the entire body.

The light that enveloped Lan's figure seemed to pull Lan into another layer, and the copper-green light beam could not touch him at all.

As a result, the demon hunter could now stand in the beam of light that could scare or exhaust people to death if it spread a little to the side. He looked up at the black cloud above his head in a thoughtful manner.

He felt the fear and exhaustion lingering in his body, but these emotions and feelings had no influence on his true inner self.

"He's been covered!" A roar came from somewhere in the chaotic battlefield, "Attack! Attack! For the Empire! For the Great Sun!"

A large group of remaining soldiers from the Dellani Brigade, with silver scorpion patterns vividly displayed on their cloaks behind them.

Lan En glanced sideways slightly.

"Brave." He first affirmed, then shook his head, "But stupid!"

There was a small 'bang' sound. It was the sound of Lan En pulling out the [Muddy Stream·Destruction] that he had inserted into the ground when he jumped down from the Qilin's back just now with one hand.

But after grasping the greatsword, the witcher raised his eyebrows and turned his gaze from the group of Nilfgaardian soldiers to his head.

The opponent's suppression force is a little stronger.

Is it really that intelligent? Or is it controlled remotely? Or did I trigger something?
I don't know. But you can try!
"Bang!!!"

A heavy, repressive and recognizable sound suddenly rang out! Just like the evening bell of a church!

[Water-Shaped Sword·Dragon Flash]!
The high-density, high-speed air blade sky that distorts the light has descended again!
The broad, brutal blade cheered! The air it drew up was not as sharp, thin, and precise as when the sword of the Lady of the Lake was used to perform this move.

But the sword it slashed out was an air blade more than one meter wide, and it contained extremely violent power!

A stone thrown from a trebuchet in mid-air was smashed into two pieces of different sizes by the air flow blade.

Not to mention the other things that were blocking the path! Both the man and the horse would be destroyed!
On the ground, there were horrifying traces of crushing and cutting, along with the extension of the airflow blade, which started in front of Lan En, and tore forward from where the dark sword had landed!
And in the black cloud above, as if angered by Lan En's actions, the power in the copper-green light column became even stronger!

Visually, the energy was pulsing in waves, flowing from the black cloud along the beam of light and onto Lan En!

Waves of energy exploded with a 'boom boom' sound, and spider-web-like depressions and fractures appeared on the ground beneath the demon hunter's feet.

The demon hunter himself did not show any signs of reaction amid the waves of attacks.

There was a look of thought in his eyes.

After [Dragon Flash] was thrown out, there was no pause at all!
After fine-tuning the angle, the demon hunter chopped down twice in a row!

“Bang!!! Bang!!!”

The heavy bell sounds accompanied by the tearing of the earth!
Three sword marks! Three twisted transparent sky curtains! Extending out like the claw marks of some giant beast! The ground around the demon hunter also became soft in this violent vibration, and stirred up violent waves like liquid.

Three consecutive [Dragon Flashes] and the torn earth shocked almost everyone.

Everyone looked in horror at the man who was enveloped in the copper-green light and just took two breaths.

But at this time, Lan En had already got the answer.

With a "crack", the dark sword body and the eerie bone-white blade of the greatsword pierced into the ground.

Everyone thought that this was at least a sign that he was exhausted.

But the demon hunter then grasped the hilt of the terrifying sword with one hand, and clenched his fist with the other hand, smashing it on the broad sword!

"Bang!!!"

As early as during the three slashes just now, Lan's reaction, observation and Mentos' real-time analysis began to work in an integrated manner.

They both discovered that the black cloud in the sky reacted the most when [Turbid Flow·Destruction] made a movement. When the airflow blade extended out and began to cause substantial damage to the Nilfgaardians, it was actually very calm.

So, after only three tentative strikes, Lan and Mentos roughly figured out why this thing had a stress response to his appearance.

The next step is easy to understand.

That black cloud was definitely not its true appearance, or rather, not its appearance when it released all its power.

Until now, Lan En could still feel that the force suppressing him was still rising with his movements.

It's stupid to allow the enemy to hide his true form in peace.

So there was this scene.

The demon hunter's fist slammed into the sword, the exploding sound wave vibration, and the physical vibration caused by the sword body inserted into the ground, all caused substantial diffusive ripples under Lan's feet!
It also made the black cloud above his head roll even more violently.

"Boss!" Qilin ran around quickly with a ball of fluff on his back, "Do you need help, meow? Let's crush it together, meow!"

The fluff ball shouted in a very imposing manner. However, the ancient dragon under its feet seemed much more stable when it landed after falling down.

"No, you two are not ready yet." Lan En said immediately.

At the beginning, when Lan En learned from Triss what impact this thing could have, he realized that what he learned from the previous world would be very professional and relevant.

But the fluff ball and the Qilin did not learn much in the previous world.

The two of them, especially Qilin, suffered several setbacks.

If you cannot achieve extraordinary control over your physical strength and energy, then entering this range will make you very passive and almost at the mercy of others.

"Got it, meow!" The fluffy ball responded without hesitation, "Then I'll leave it to you, Boss! We'll help you clear the area, meow!"

As they spoke, Qilin and the fluff ball felt something at the same time.

As soon as the kitten pulled the mane on the unicorn's neck, Gu Long's feet flashed with lightning and he moved sideways more than a hundred meters away!
They both have very keen senses.

Because the next moment, that thing finally reached its limit in enduring the noise made by Lan En and [Muddy Flow·Destruction]!
"."

As everyone on the battlefield stared in stunned silence, the beam of light that shot out from the dark clouds suddenly shrank back.

It seems like it has died down.

This brought a moment of dead silence on the battlefield.

"He saw it." In the Nilfgaardian command post, Menno Kuhoen held a telescope and said. His tone was not sure whether it was a calm acceptance of reality or a deep emotion that was not revealed.

But after a seemingly calm moment!

"boom!!!"

A huge and filthy force burst out from the black cloud like a waterfall pouring down!

The power in the rolling and swirling black clouds continued to condense, and the influence released by the power continued to expand outwards!
Finally, a huge and ferocious figure fell from the air and landed on the ground where Lan En was!
The earth and rocks that had been shattered by Lan En's three [Dragon Flashes] were now causing waves like a huge rock thrown into the water!
The demon hunter who was originally standing at the center of the landing point disappeared at the moment just now.

The smoke and dust cleared, and a figure that Lan En, Flannel Ball, and Qilin were all familiar with stood up from the ground.

It is half a body taller than Lan En now, and one of its arms is as big as him! A normal person is only the size of its palm!
On the body that is so strong that it is deformed, all kinds of distorted faces are intertwined to form patterns on the body.

His face was distorted particularly severely, half of it was filled with anger burning like fire, while the other half was filled with fear and resistance deep in his bones!
On the forehead, a huge and exaggerated crystal horn points straight to the sky!

This is a monster that is 80% similar to the monster in the magical Japanese Warring States world - [Ghost Ghost]!

"Roar!"

The roar filled with anger and fear spread out, making people feel an uncontrollable panic and fear.

On the spot, countless horses and people collapsed with weak legs and incontinence.

"How did this thing appear here, meow?!"

The fluff ball screamed.

"Whoosh!"

Qilin shook his head.

"We killed a Deinonychus here before. That's it."

Lan En, who was carrying the huge [Muddy Stream·Destruction], appeared more than ten meters away from the landing point of the vengeful ghost.

He carried the sword and paced to observe the "foreign monster" that jumped out from the black smoke and fog.

The reason why it is said to be only 80% similar to the vengeful ghost.

First of all, it is not a fiery red skin. Normal vengeful ghosts have red skin, and the cracks, lines and ghost horns on their bodies are golden crystals, that is, spirit stones.

But this time, its body surface was as black as the dark clouds in the sky just now, and those places that should have been glowing golden spirit stones turned into a copper-green crystal texture.

Secondly, it should have two large iron balls tied to its arms, at least two meters in diameter, but now they were bronze church bells of similar size.

It made a continuous 'bang bang' sound when it was shaking.

'Is it the result of the intersection of the celestial spheres?'

Lan En frowned and thought.

His spiritual vision was focused on this vengeful ghost, which was filled with resentful souls and filthy power, similar to the magical Japanese Warring States period.

But it’s not quite the same.

But no matter what, now that the other party has revealed himself, Lan En feels that things have become a lot simpler.

Moreover, although the vengeful ghost is dangerous, it is not difficult for him to deal with it.

That should be it, right?
