Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf.

Chapter 410 Breaking the situation
Remnants, manifestations of natural forces, have gradually emerged from the wilderness over time, and there are also theories that they came to this realm via the Celestial Confluence.

This is the definition given in General Knowledge of Monsters. Although it is a bit vague, one thing is certain.

All remnants are magical creatures with a strong connection to nature.

Deer-headed demon, goat-horned demon, Sharma...

Most of the remains are even worshipped as gods by the locals!

Reality is different from games. In games, the only difference between corpse-eating creatures, ghosts, remnants, and even hybrids is the numerical value. The maximum damage caused by non-targeted methods will be smaller. As long as the level difference is small enough, there is no monster that cannot be killed.

But the reality is different.

Monsters of various races have very distinct characteristics, so distinct that you simply cannot kill them unless you deal with them in a certain way.

The most obvious example is ghosts.

The level of the demons is actually not high according to the Demon Hunting Notes, but even if they can be harmed with the silver sword, it will be a very long journey without the use of ghost oil.

Ailin had a very strong premonition.

Or maybe it can’t be called a premonition, the extremely low values ​​of Demon Hunting that I have never encountered before have clearly shown...

The remnant may be a kind of monster that is more difficult to deal with than the ghost.

And he has no residual oil.

"What should I do?" Ailin muttered, turning around and slashing down.

Red light flashes.

Elsa was still like a dull knife cutting through cowhide.

The white marks on the tentacles seemed to be mocking him.

The same goes for the system prompts out of the corner of my eye.

[Demon Hunting] 2%
"Roar--"

The terrifying roars suddenly resounded throughout the Mahakam Mountains.

Ailin's sword-swinging movement suddenly froze, as if he was being watched by countless ferocious beasts lurking in the darkness, and the chill penetrated directly from his tailbone to his scalp.

He tilted his head.

It happened to meet a huge scarlet vertical pupil.

And it's not just the one eye.

Countless bright red vertical pupils, supported by the exposed pale bones and delicate muscle fibers, were also looking at him with cold eyes.

Ritual of Summoning now recovers from damage taken by Shimmer.

"roar~"

The "slow" corpse-eating creatures around seemed to be instantly energized.

The four thorn demons spread their arms and roared, ignoring the giant griffin that was harassing them in the sky and Vesemir who was amputating the limb of one of the thorn demons.

With red eyes and roaring, they rushed straight towards Ailin.

In front and behind the Spiked Demon are giant ghouls, corroded demons and ghouls who are still in the summoning ritual, seemingly to complete the ritual.

Although the number is not large, there are only about twenty or thirty of them in total.

But their postures are all as crazy as the Spike Demon's.

Crashing boulders, flattening bushes, and snapping giant trees...

When Ailin looked over from the corner of his eye, the black spikes on the giant ghoul were all broken, and the features of the rot demon, which were already similar to those of a disfigured corpse, became even flatter. The ghoul was covered with tiny scars and bleeding...

But this kind of reckless madness and hideousness is terrifying.

"Don't even think about it!"

Vesemir shouted loudly, bent the middle finger of his right hand, and pushed forward suddenly, causing the thorn demon that had just started to sprint to lose its balance and fall to the ground with a bang.

Then he ignored the thorn demon in front of him that was covered with thorns and difficult to kill for the time being, and rushed into the group of corpse-eating creatures in three or two steps.

With a twist of his right wrist, the sword swung in a semicircle, chopping off the head of a zombie that was blocking the way.

Then, without stopping, he kicked the blindly rushing Corruption Demon away, and while hitting another giant ghoul, he tripped the Spike Demon.

He spun gracefully in mid-air, switched the silver sword to his left hand, and bent the index finger of his right hand.

Igni Seal.

The dark golden cat's eyes reflected the distorted figure of the Corruption Demon.

The hot sparks touched the palm of his hand, igniting the corrosive demon he kicked away, and then he swung it in the opposite direction, igniting the two corrosive demons on the other side.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

There were continuous explosions and loud bangs.

In just a few moments, Vesemir had repelled two Spike Demons, three Carrion Demons exploded, and he killed five Ghouls and one Giant Ghoul.

But even so, there are still some that slip through the net.

The other two thorn demons led the remaining corpse-eating creatures and continued to rush towards Ailin.

at this time.

"Wow—"

The great griffin roared angrily, and faint green light could be seen flowing on its black wings.

She sprinted downward in the sky like a comet falling from the sky, and when she was less than three meters from the ground, she suddenly spread her wings.

The wind howled.

The strong wind pressure blew away the ghouls and carrion demons, forcing the giant ghoul to stop and hold its claws tightly on the ground.

The two thorn demons, whose IQs were not high and whose body control was not strong, were blown down directly.

But it's not over yet.

After the great griffin spread its wings, it hovered in the air for only a moment, then stretched out its sharp claws, grabbed an unstable thorn demon, and flew into the sky.

By the time the Spiked Demon thought of struggling, it had already flown to a height of two or three hundred meters.

The sharp claws that were stuck in the flesh loosened.

"Roar!"

The thorn demon fell vertically, waving its arms and legs wildly.

The gravity from the earth is impartial. No matter how rich the elemental favor is, when the height is high enough, it will cause fatal damage.

"boom!"

A deep pit was smashed into the ground, filled with smoke and dust.

After a while.

"boom!"

There was a loud bang.

A ball of green flame suddenly rose in the valley, and in the aftermath of the explosion, bright red spikes shot out like sharp arrows.

It pierced through all the zombies and ghoulish devils that had just been blown away by the wind pressure, and finally shot down several oak trees growing on the edge of the valley, nailing them directly to the cliff wall, corroding a large piece of the cliff wall before falling to the ground.

"Good girl!" Ailin couldn't help but exclaim.

After his claw failed to leave a scar on the big eyeball, he really didn't expect that the big griffin's performance would be so amazing. It actually killed the thorn demon first with its strength.

Faster than Vesemir with enhanced necrophiliac bio-oil.

But think about it, the Great Griffin is much stronger than Vesemir. The Great Griffin they killed in Vengerberg was finally defeated with the help of Demon Hunter.

Flying monsters naturally have a huge advantage over monsters on the ground.

What's more, the Spike Demon itself is not very intelligent. Its danger lies in its huge size, and the explosion and poisonous spikes when it dies.

The reason why Vesemir failed to kill the Spiked Demon was actually because of his self-destruction.

The support from the great griffin and Vesemir made Arryn feel a little relieved.

But with it comes tremendous pressure.

"Roar!"

The shouts and cries of killing on the battlefield in Ianna were so deafening that they could be heard clearly even in this distant valley.

But they were not able to stop all the corpse-eating creatures.

"Rumble~"

The ground was shaking slightly, but the amplitude of the vibration was increasing.

A large wave of corpse-eating creatures that were lured out are returning.

A monster tide of this magnitude could not be stopped by Vesemir and the great griffin.

"I'm the only one left." Ailin took a deep breath.

The countless pairs of beast eyes in the Demon Summoning Ritual were still staring at him, but there was no further movement, as if it only had the ability to drive monsters.

But no.

Not to mention that when he just landed, he was startled by [Demon Hunter] and was unleashed with a strong mental attack that made him dizzy even though he had built a divine wall.

The wooden amulet that Lisa gave her swayed in front of her chest.

"Click~click~"

Faint strange noises kept coming from the amulet, as if the rotten stairs were breaking due to the heavy weight.

This is not a good sign.

The vertical pupil that was staring at his figure and the countless pairs of vertical eyes were attacking him all the time. One terrible question after another kept appearing in his mind.

for example……

Will the corpse-eating creatures like the tide come back first, or will the amulet blessed by the goddess lose its effect first?

Or in other words…

In what ways would he fail... and die?
"crunch~"

[Demon Hunting] 4%
The shadow of failure seemed to be approaching with every fall of the sword.

Even the force of Elsa's spinning seemed to slow down.

At this moment.

"Om~"

His chest shook slightly, and a cool feeling rushed directly into Ailin's mind, making his mind clear.

"Mirage Pearl!" he exclaimed.

Cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.

“Damn it!” Ailin stared at the summoning ritual, which he had never taken his eyes off, in shock. “When did it affect me?”

The scarlet vertical pupils blinked, emitting a hazy and dangerous red mist.

"Click~click~"

The faint strange noises coming from the amulet became more frequent.

"We can't go on like this!" Ailin stopped swinging the blade.

[Demon Hunting] 4%
But half a minute had already passed.

The Demon Hunting state itself can only last for 450 seconds. If you continue to attack blindly like this, the progress of [Demon Hunting] will only be % when the time limit expires.

It’s too late!
"But how?"

He felt Balmer behind him again.

The sword in its scabbard remained motionless.

"Why?" Ailin didn't understand.

"Qiang!"

He suddenly pulled out the Balmo and slashed down with the sword.

This time, there wasn't even a white mark on the tentacles of the summoning ritual.

【Name: Balmer】

[Type: Strange Object]

[Functions: breaking steel, slaying demons, breaking armor, removing evil, destroying luck]

[Note: The story of this sword is even more legendary than that of its owner, Zatret Volta. Also, let me tell you a little secret: Zatret Volta is also a child of miracles.]

"Why?" Ailin asked again, not understanding, the simple long sword in his hand, "What about slaying demons? What about destroying evil?"

In broad daylight, he watched the summoning ritual from a distance, and Balmer was so excited that he knocked him on the back until it hurt.

Why is there no movement even though we are so close?

Changjian said nothing, which made him look even more like a fool.

"Wow~"

"boom!"

Trees were broken, smoke and dust filled the air, and the scattered debris hit the ground like raindrops.
The Great Griffin and Vesemir were fighting fiercely, buying him time.

However, under the gaze of countless eyes during the demon summoning ritual, he felt helpless and even a little desperate.

"and many more!"

Aelin frowned.

He felt as if he had grasped something.

"Qiang!"

Sheath the sword of Balmer.

"Under the gaze of countless eyeballs during the Demon Summoning Ritual... the gaze of eyeballs... eyeballs!!!"

He muttered a few words, then suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the summoning ritual, but not at the huge eyeball clinging to the elven tower.

But underneath, there were nearly a thousand strange vertical pupils between the pale bones and scarlet flesh.

“Just because a big griffin can’t tear the big eyeballs doesn’t mean the small eyeballs are equally tough!” Ailin’s eyes lit up.

He didn't know whether it was because of the inertia of the griffin's failed attack or the influence of the summoning ritual that he didn't think of this.

But he remembered it clearly.

During the day, corpse-eating creatures came from outside the valley and were crushed and decomposed by the tentacles without any resistance.

Then the eyeball was swallowed up and grew out of the mountain of meat.

Those nearly a thousand eyeballs seemed to come from ghouls, giant ghouls and spike demons.

"Roar!"

Ailin's burning gaze seemed to have stimulated the summoning ritual.

From the dark forest in the distance, roars were heard one after another.

The corpse-eating creature that was lured away was getting closer.

"call!"

Ailin let out a breath and held Elsa tightly.

"Give it a try!"

He shouted in his heart, and rushed towards the elf tower covered with hideous flesh and blood.

The tentacles that formed the ritual texture were at the sides, beside, and beneath the body.

The closer he got to the tower, the denser the tentacles that wriggled like intestines became. When he got within 20 meters, he had no choice but to step on the soft flesh that felt strange and rush forward.

On both sides were dark red pools of undried blood.

The indescribable stench of amniotic fluid, blood, and rotting flesh became increasingly strong.

“Click, click, click~”

When he was only ten meters away from the fleshy tower covered with eyes, the sound of the amulet's wood cracking became almost continuous, as if it could explode at any time.

But he didn't care. His azure cat pupils narrowed into a line and stared into the nearly a thousand eyes.

【Demon Hunt】Canceled.

Three servings of water ghost heart essence restore physical strength.

follow closely.

[Demon Hunting], stop on the ground, turn around and gather strength...

The adrenal medulla is stimulated.

After a large amount of adrenaline was secreted, the demon hunter's breathing became noticeably faster, and his heart and blood flow accelerated as if a river was flowing in his blood vessels.

then.

prick!
"boom!"

The tip of the silver blade pierced the air, creating a sonic boom, and turbulent airflow wrapped around the sword.

Look past.

The bright red blade seemed to be twisted by the enormous force.

"puff!"

The pleasant sound of flesh being pierced.

The tip of Elsa's sword pierced directly into the vertical pupil.

Turbid, translucent slurry mixed with blood spurted out.

"Roar!"

A terrified roar of a corpse-eating creature was heard behind him.

Judging from the footsteps, many corpse-eating creatures seem to have returned to the valley.

[Demon Hunting] 3%
"It works!" Ailin's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although the accumulated progress is not much, but 3% of one sword is more than enough to be fully accumulated before the demon hunting state ends without any accident.

"Pfft!"

A sword was drawn out.

Then he stared at the front with his scarlet vertical pupils wide open and stabbed three times in a row.

[Demon Hunting] 6%
[Demon Hunting] 9%
[Demon Hunting] 12%
Just when Ailin excitedly drew his sword and was about to stab again, his movement suddenly stopped.

Accident happened!
"Click~"

There was a loud sound of wood breaking in front of my chest.
