523 Proof of the Flame
"Whew!"
On the hospital bed, Gregory suddenly opened his eyes and sat up in shock, looking at Corey who had been awakened by himself...... There was a scream.
Perhaps the "dream" was too real to make Gregory forget the fact that he was covered with wounds, but as soon as he sat up, it was tragic, just one action of getting up, at least three wounds were torn, and the wounds that were pulled were so numerous that Gregory's screams were very long.
Hall, who had just found two mercenaries, was also alarmed, and broke into the hospital bed with the two mercenaries, only to see Gregory gritting his teeth and standing up from the hospital bed, holding a black iron rod from nowhere as a crutch.
"Huh? It's not ......"
The corners of Hall's eyes jumped slightly, as an archer, Hall's eyes were naturally excellent, and he could see at a glance that the iron rod in Gregory's hand was actually a somewhat strange long sword, and if he remembered correctly, this sword was lost by Gregory after it was used once when Gregory first came out of the city, how could it appear here again?
Hall vaguely remembered that Gregory seemed to have said that the sword was given to him by a witch, could it be that the witch sent the sword?
Thinking about it like this, Holden had a clear idea, as long as everything involves witches, no matter how strange it is, it is not surprising!
"That's right, that's the sword."
Gregory nodded, trying to pretend to be relaxed, but the muscles in his face twitched uncontrollably.
However, to Hall's surprise, in the time of just this sentence, Gregory's walking posture was much smoother, and even less dependent on the spiral black sword, if when he first entered the house, Gregory almost pressed his whole body weight on the sword, now this long sword only plays a role in stabilizing and balancing.
Could it be that Corey's medicine is working again?
However, this time Hall still guessed wrong, although the return of the spiral black sword to Gregory's side has nothing to do with the witch, but Gregory's recovery from his injuries is definitely the witch's handiwork.
Although the number of remnant souls in the black sword is not large, at least it has also absorbed the remnant soul in the body of a gray beast, and using the power of this remnant soul, although it cannot make Gregory heal, it can speed up his recovery, and speed up the speed at which the healing potion takes effect, as if the time is accelerated, and the injury that originally took two or three days to heal was almost healed in less than half an hour.
"Aha! Sure enough, Corey's medicine is the best! ”
At the dining table, Gregory stuffed half a bun in his mouth, and looked at Corey sullenly, but Corey gave him a blank look, reached out and stabbed half of the bun into Gregory's mouth, so that he couldn't make a sound at all.
After a big meal and drink, Gregory suddenly recovered, picked up the spiral black sword, got up and was about to walk outside the stronghold, and greeted the others with full of energy: "Go!" Kill the Grey Beast! ”
"But ......"
Corey wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Gregory waving his hand: "Don't worry, we will be on the edge of the stronghold, and we will kill some gray beasts to practice first." ”
"Okay."
Hearing Gregory say this, Corey has no reason to persuade him, now Gregory has the strength of the peak of the Seven Rings, even if the injury is not good, it is not something that a group of gray beasts can threaten.
"But you're going to use this sword?"
Hall asked with a rare opening, and Gregory nodded: "The sword before broke when I was fighting the big snake, and I want to try it with this sword." ”
Try the true power of the Black Sword.
Gregory thought in his heart, and subconsciously injected a trace of soul power into the black sword, and the spiral lines on the black sword suddenly lit up with red light, and in the next second, the red light broke away from the lines and turned into an illusory flame sword body.
"Huh?"
Corey looked at the red light surrounding the black sword, rubbed his eyes again, and finally made sure that he was not dazzled, but that this black sword had really changed into a red sword body!
It's just that this sword body is too "illusory", right?
The red sword body conjured by the black sword was like a phantom, with a transparency of almost 100 percent, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like something that can be used in battle, and it is not even as good as the sword qi condensed directly with soul power!
"Huh?"
Gregory also noticed the phantom sword body outside the black sword, and swung the long sword a few times, but the red phantom sword body was not as vague as an illusion, but like a real entity, as if a transparent long sword was recreated with the sword body of the black sword spiral as the core.
At the same time, a wave of realization rose in his heart, and he suddenly understood......
Uh, what's the coming of enlightenment?
Gregory froze, thinking for a long time, and only remembered that this sword seemed to be called "Evidence of Fire", but this was something that he had heard the witch say once before, and as for the rest, he only felt that he seemed to understand something, and as for what he understood, he did not know.
How so!
Gregory was immediately crazy, if he also had an attribute panel, it is estimated that he would understand, the comprehension of this thing has long been zeroed, enlightenment? Inexistent!
"Aha! The witch was right! ”
In the end, Gregory could only laugh dryly and move the witch out, anyway, the sword was given to him by the witch, and this kind of thing must have something to do with the witch...... Right?
However, this sentence dispelled the doubts in the hearts of Corey and Hall, and the two of them were immediately relieved, after all, this was the method that the witch taught Gregory.
Following Gregory, Hall, Corey, and the two mercenaries who had just recovered left the stronghold together, and shortly after climbing over the high wall, they encountered a group of gray beasts.
"The spiky bone wolf is still an undead species!" Looking at the more than a dozen wolf-shaped monsters that surrounded him, Gregory raised his hand to stop the others, "Leave these bone wolves to me, just try the power of this sword!" ”
With that, Gregory rushed forward with the proof of flames, jumped up halfway, raised his sword in both hands, and slashed at a skeletal wolf!
Click, click!
The two sounds were almost indistinguishable, and the skull of the bone wolf in the front suddenly turned into a cloud of bone fragments, but Gregory also stopped, just now, the red sword body conjured by the flame proof actually shattered first when it touched the bone wolf skull!
The skull of the bone wolf was not shattered by the sword at all, but smashed by force!
Gregory was immediately disappointed, this is both the so-called power of the witch?
Behind him, Corey and the others did not see the scene of the phantom sword shattering through a layer of gray mist, but cheered for him after seeing Gregory simply and neatly solve a bone wolf.
Hearing the voice behind him, Gregory smiled bitterly, he had already said the big words just now, why was he embarrassed to go back and ask for help?
"It's just a bunch of bone wolves!"
Gregory whispered to himself to cheer himself up, but looking at the bone wolves surrounding him, he couldn't help but tighten the hilt of the sword in his hand and put on a defensive posture, and at the same time, Gregory once again injected more soul power into the flame proof.
Call!
This time Gregory saw clearly, as if a flame had suddenly ignited, the red light and shadow first skyrocketed, and then under the restraint of some force, it condensed into a red sword body, but this time, it seemed to be more condensed than last time?
"Delusion? Or is it because this time there is a little more soul power injected? ”
Doubts flashed through Gregory's mind, but the wolves that gradually surrounded him forced him to let go of the problem and concentrate on dealing with the wolves in front of him.
I have to say that Gregory is a little less savvy...... A lot, but his fighting talent is absolutely first-class, when the two skeletal wolves pounced on him from the left and right sides, Gregory thought of a way to deal with it in an instant, his feet were wrong, his whole body twisted and spun, and the flame proof carried a red phantom sword body, like a burning fire sword, and swept past the two skullwolves in an instant.
Click, click, click!
After three almost continuing crunchs, the bodies of the two skeletal wolves flew upside down, except that the skull of one skeletal wolf was cut horizontally from the middle, while the other was smashed like the first skullwolf.
Shattered along with the bone wolf's skull, there was also the red sword body of the flame proof, but Gregory didn't have time to pay attention to this, his hands clenched the hilt of the sword, and the flame certificate ignited red light and shadow again, roaring towards the three bone wolves who pounced on them!
Gregory held the sword in one hand, and with the other hand against the sword, he pushed it hard, knocking out a bone wolf that pounced on it, and then the right hand holding the sword swung back, and the head of the sword hit the head of the other bone wolf, knocking out a piece of bone ballast.
At this time, the third skull wolf had already circled behind Gregory, opened his mouth and bit Gregory's neck, but Gregory seemed to have eyes on his back, and suddenly pounced forward to avoid the bite of the bone wolf, his left hand slapped on the ground, and his body suddenly turned around half a circle, and I don't know when he changed to the right hand holding the long sword upside down and waved it fiercely, and the evidence of the flame crossed a red trajectory, easily cutting off the neck bone of the bone wolf!
However, the battle was not over, the bone wolf who had just been knocked away by Gregory and the remaining seven bone wolves rushed towards him at the same time!
At this time, Gregory had just gotten up from the ground, and before he could even stand firmly, the fastest skeletal wolf had already arrived in front of him!
"Get out!"
Gregory shouted violently, holding the long sword upside down in his right hand, holding the sword head with his left hand, and slammed the evidence of flame into the ground, and in an instant, the red sword body turned into red light and shadow again, swinging outward like a ring of fire, instantly pushing all the bone wolves out!
"Hah!"
Gregory laughed, and the long sword in his hand once again transformed into a red blade, this time, instead of passively defending, he held the hilt of the sword with both hands and rushed towards the nearest skull wolf!
Click!
The bone wolf who was still rolling on the ground didn't even have a chance to react, and was cut open by a sword, and then the second and third, relying on his own speed, Gregory killed five bone wolves in a row, and the remaining three bone wolves finally stood up, "ho ho" and gathered together, which was actually a defensive gesture towards Gregory!
"Bullying the soft and fearing the hard."
Gregory sneered and rushed forward with his sword in hand again.
And in the rear, Hall frowned: "This sword limits Gray's combat effectiveness. ”
Cole and the other two mercenaries next to him also nodded in agreement, although these spiky bone wolves are more difficult undead species, their individual strength is equivalent to a weaker nine-ring professional, and Gregory is already a peak seven-ring swordsman, not much worse than the six-ring knight!
When facing a group of bone wolves, Gregory's most normal way to fight should be to use his soul power to condense a piece of sword qi and kill the bone wolf in an instant with a crushing attitude, instead of being like now, like a newly promoted nine-ring swordsman, relying on swordsmanship to deal with the wolves!
"Gray isn't going to be like a swordsman, is he?"
Corey frowned, but then he didn't mind, but compared to the swordsman......
"The swordsman seems to be handsome too?"
Holden was speechless, Cory, where is your focus!
Swordsman is a relatively common profession, most swordsmen use two-handed swords, and there are also those like Gregory who use longswords, which can be used to hold the sword in both hands or single-handed, and the fighting style is more flexible, but even swordsmen who use longswords pay more attention to strength when fighting, and the fighting style is usually wide open and closed to convince people.
The swordsman is different, it is said that this is a form of cultivation that has been handed down from another world, the weapon is a one-handed short sword or a bayonet sword, the fighting style is more about skill than strength, and when fighting, it is like dancing, beautiful and full of murder.
When evaluating the level of swordsmen, only the swordsman's swordsmanship skills are evaluated, so that most swordsmen's guardian badge level is higher than their strength realm.
"The swordsman's words are nothing, but they can make Gray more powerful, but ......" Hal paused, "I'm just worried, can Gray really learn those complex swordsmanship?" ”
This time it was Cory's turn to be speechless, he turned his head to look at Gregory who had just "killed" the last skull wolf, and finally could only nod heavily, Gregory's brain is really not suitable for learning such complex things!
"What a fool......," Corey covered his face, "the undead species will be resurrected!" ”
When dealing with the undead species, smashing the skull can indeed kill the death spirit species, but if you just cut off the head, this group of undead species will teach you how to be a human in minutes!
But this time it was Corey who underestimated Gregory's fighting instinct, and the two resurrected bone wolves quietly crawled behind Gregory, and before they could burst out, they saw a red light and shadow pass in front of them, and in the next second, four skulls rolled and fell to the ground.
