Chapter Eighty-Nine: Natural Predators
"Jinguji Chigusa, sage. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info Mu Feng, use your eyes to remember the next set of swordsmanship, this is the only one-sword swordsmanship that my father gave me, it may not be as good as my sister, but it should be enough for you. Chigusa hovered the rain cut diagonally on Mu Fengye's left waist, which seemed to be the time when the knife was not yet unsheathed, but the rain cut did not have a scabbard.
"Oh. β
I only felt that Chigusa's hand suddenly tightened, and a strong tearing sensation came from the right arm, and the blade drawn diagonally flashed, and then returned to the initial position, the time of this action was only a short fraction of a second, and it was possible to practice the speed to this situation, no wonder this arm that had not undergone training felt a little uncomfortable.
Chigusa's knife flash actually cut off the monster's two heads in less than a second, and at this time, Sakurama's arrow also shot at the third head at the same time, and the arrow pierced straight into the brain, what she didn't expect was that Chigusa could actually help her save two arrows.
"Whew!" The three heads in front of the seven-headed dog that had been revived by the fourth metabolic system had not yet healed, and as long as the two of them did not make a mistake, they would soon be able to kill all seven heads.
"Uhhh
The sword left three or four blood marks on the monster's body in an instant, and it stepped back in pain, watching as its fourth head was also crushed by Sakurama's arrow.
Each of Chigusa's knives can be stopped in the right place, Mu Fengye can feel it, her seemingly delicate palm actually has a lot of calluses that have been sharpened when holding the knife, but her usual maintenance is also very fine, put on ordinary people who practice kendo, I am afraid that the cocoon that is difficult to calm has occupied the entire palm.
"Ding!" Rain Choi suddenly touched something hard in the air, and there was almost nothing in this world that could make such a sound when fighting with Rain Cut, except for the adaptive Sun Rank and Takashi's black shield, but Chigusa's movements did not stop in the slightest, but slashed the knife more smoothly.
"That's ......" Chigusa was stunned suddenly, what he had just fought with Yukiri was a black blade on the paws of a seven-headed dog!
Sakuruma in the rear didn't dare to be in a daze, an arrow shot at its fifth head, forcing it to use the sixth metabolic system to restore the previously killed head, it would be bad to miss this opportunity, his own arrows were left with few left, and it would definitely be difficult for Chikusa to kill the seven-headed dog in a certain period of time.
A spark flashed again in the pitch-black mid-air, and Chigusa became more and more surprised, and her breathing was slightly faster.
"Is it ......?"
"Whoosh-"
After this arrow, only the last head of the seven-headed dog remained, and Sakuruma was unequivocal, aiming the remaining three arrows in the quiver at the same time at the two heads that were surviving and the two heads that were about to be healed by Chigusa before, and she was sure that she would be able to tell the winner with one blow, because she was in excellent shape now!
"Die. β
"Sakurama! Don't!" Chigusa seemed to react to something, and turned around and shouted at Sakuruma while protecting Mu Fengye!
Apparently it was too late for her voice to reach Sakurama's ears, and the three black arrows had already been shot out in unison, and their flight trajectory was very steady, and when they were about to nail the seven-headed dog's head, a few black afterimages flashed out of nowhere, cutting off all those arrows!
"What?!"
Sakurama's eyes widened as she looked at the arrows that had fallen to the ground, as well as the two heads that had healed and awakened.
"How could this be......" Mu Fengye also wondered, until everything went very smoothly just now, what was it that suddenly cut off Sakura's arrow at a critical moment?
"It's obsidian, obsidian like us. Chigusa was silent for a second, staring at the paws of the seven-headed dog and said, "That thing didn't exist before, probably it was activated after it was threatened with death...... It seems that God is not only making it more difficult. β
"Mu Feng, get out of the way!" Sakura called out for Mu Feng to retreat at night while taking out the branches hidden in the mouth of the socks to activate the activated weapon, these branches were only four, and it was not enough to kill the seven-headed dog.
Mu Fengye finally knew what it was that sparked with the rain cut just now, although they would still be cut off by the sharpness of the rain cut, but they were already close to its hardness, and ordinary obsidian weapons were afraid that they would not be able to pose a threat to it.
"Smack!" came the crisp sound of a branch breaking, and Sakuruma decided to repeat the trick and use its obsidian crystals to temporarily blind the seven-headed dogs, their metabolic system would soon repair the wounds, and it would not be a good thing to run as far as they could during this time, and it was not a good thing to be entangled in it.
"Chigusa, I'll hold it back, Mu Fengye's leg is injured, you go to the front and wait for me first." Sakuruma shot an arrow to hinder the seven-headed dog's follow-up, and then shot a second arrow as she retreated, "Quick!"
Mu Fengye believed in Sakura's skill, even if he couldn't kill it, he could get out by himself, so he followed the sisters of Jinguji Temple to the forest in front of him, and it seemed that it was too late to pursue the mark of the four palaces, so he could only avoid this catastrophe first.
After the three of them left, Sakurama didn't let go of an arrow, the arrow that was broken off the end was always on the bowstring, the last arrow left was the most important, nothing could be shot easily, once shot, she was completely in a situation of running out of ammunition, which was very fatal for an archer.
The speed of the seven-headed dog is not slow at all, Sakurama had to take this guy around the forest in order to help Mu Fengye and them buy more time, his agile body makes it impossible for the seven-headed dog to get close at all, if you let it get close, even a Mekai will not escape death, those seven heads will tear anything to pieces, you don't even know which throat you were sent into the stomach from when you were eaten by it!
"It's almost time, but I'm sorry, I'm not going to let you out of here alive......" Sakuruma's arrow, which had been hesitating for a long time, finally shot into the distance, and strangely she didn't aim at the seven-headed dog, because it was futile, an arrow wouldn't kill it, but what was attracted by this arrow was its natural enemy.
"fluttering ......"
The sound of wings flapping brought a gust of wind, there was not only flowing air in the wind, dozens of wind blades whistling in the face, Sakuruma had long expected this result, no matter what, the mutant Sylph would target the humans to hunt, and her purpose was to let its wind blades strangle with the seven-headed dogs!
"Roarβ"
Seven roaring heads rushed towards Sakuruma in a rage, but it collided head-on with a wind blade that was completely invisible to the naked eye!
"Uhhh
The wind blade neatly cut off three heads, but neither could Sakuruma, who couldn't see the seven-headed dog, and there was not only one wind blade, but the other slashed through her thigh, but fortunately the wound was shallow, and if she moved a little to the left, the entire left leg would be cut off.
"Uh......" Sakurama quickly bent forward and threw herself to the ground before the wind blade behind her could slash at her, and several winds whistled above her head, and she curled up at the same time to hold her breath.
"Squeak!" Sylph suddenly lost his target, Sakuruma didn't hear a wave, and there was silence in his eyes, except for the noisy seven-headed dog still barking.
Sylph didn't react to the blood, but the seven-headed dog could see it, but it didn't know that when it found Sakurama, it was also slashed by Sylph's wind blade, as if to vent its anger, I'm afraid Sylph thought it had lost its hard-won prey!
"Poofβ"
Bright red blood splattered Sakuruma nearby, her long silver hair was stained with this blood, and the seven-headed dog was no longer moving, as if it had been executed by Sylph on the spot, and the sound of "fluttering" wings gradually faded away.
"Whew...... Whew......"
By the faint light of the moon, Sakuruma slowly got up from the ground, and beside him lay the corpse of a seven-headed dog, its head had all been moved, and its body was chopped in two by the wind blade, revealing the heart that was still beating inside, but the beating of the heart was slowly failing, and it would not be long before it would die completely.
"Are you still hit a lot...... Sakurama touched her waist and arms, there was a piece of blood oozing from there, these injuries would soon recover, but this battle really made her tired, Obsidian absorbed her physical strength to the extreme, and now she really has no extra strength at all.
The three of them who were running wildly on the other side of the forest finally stopped, it was a small pond in the forest, there were no trees around it, and the moonlight invaded the ground unbridledly.
"Finally escaped...... Chie The numbness on her shoulder had disappeared, and her right arm was able to move freely, she hurriedly picked up a handful of water and applied it to the wound, relieving the hot pain.
"Sakurama hasn't come out yet. Mu Fengye looked back at the forest with some worry, the darkness made him feel deeply helpless, I don't know how Sakurama is doing now, whether he has successfully escaped.
"She should be fine, you see, she doesn't appear on the list yet, does she?" Chigusa opened the death list, and it was still lit up with those familiar faces as always, neither more nor less.
Mu Fengye had already sensed something, and did not say anything, just prayed in his heart that Sakura would appear soon.
"Rustling ......"
Soon after, there was some movement in the forest, Mu Fengye looked at it intently, ready to summon obsidian at any time, and when he saw the tired Sakurama holding the trunk of the tree and covering the wounds on his body in sight, his whole heart relaxed, and he hurried over to hug her.
"What happened to the monster?" An inexplicable sense of peace of mind arose, this was not the first time Sakurama had sacrificed herself to save herself, but there was a new feeling, which had never felt before.
"Silf was killed by the Silf I brought in......"
"Hmph, it's Sakura, but I don't owe you any favors this time. Chie exposed the wound on her shoulder and carefully washed it with the water from the pond.
"It's okay, I'm so tired, can you help me go over and rest for a while?"
