Chapter 12: The Night Demon and the Ghoul
In this way, he was facing this guy hidden in the shadows for another half a minute.
For a while, he couldn't help but lose his patience, or wanted to vent the pressure that had accumulated in his heart in less than a minute, and he was about to overwhelm himself, Ye Qi finally yelled: "Damn! You have a kind of out, what kind of ability is sneaky! β
However, just as Ye Qi's above words fell, a dark red phantus flashed in front of his eyes.
Ye Qi, who was so frightened that he almost let go, shot out the feather arrows from the longbow that was beaten into a full moon, but he was greatly relieved when he saw the dark red phantom of the human form floating in the air six or seven meters away from him in the distance.
While glad that he had encountered this monster, he was also glad that he didn't shoot the feathered arrows on his longbow.
Because,The monster that is doing various flying maneuvers in the air in the distance,It's a kind of existence with the scientific name "Night Demon.γ
Among the extensive information about the Night's Watch, this is judged to be a challenge level: 11 Night Demons.
It can be said that Ye Qi at this time can definitely be said to be an existence against the sky.
However, although the Daredevil's challenge level, that is, his own combat power, is very scary. It is almost the same as standing at the peak of the individual combat power of the whole human race, and there is a small group of strong people who exist in the flash gold class.
However, these nights only appear in the wilderness, and the wandering night demons have the characteristics of scaring travelers who walk alone in the wilderness at most as long as you don't provoke them.
At that time, Ye Qi, who heard that there was such a creature in the world of Aya in Black Rock Castle, was obviously very impressed, and at the same time, he muttered: "Isn't this a big boss who wanders in the wild at night and has passive attack characteristics." β
And the dark red phantom in front of him is obviously the big boss that Ye Qi said at the time that wandered in the wild at night and had passive attack characteristics.
Therefore, at first, he was glad that he did not shoot the feather arrow with the heavy arrow of Mitsubishi.
After all, if you shoot that arrow, not to mention that this kind of feather arrow without the slightest magical effect of enchantment, will have no effect on the night demon in ghost form.
If this arrow alone is regarded as an attack on it by this night demon, the consequences, even if the combat power has just been greatly improved, but in front of a creature like the night demon, Ye Qi, whose combat power is only at the "5 scum", will definitely be killed in an instant!
Therefore, after someone who was terrified, after inserting the feather arrow back into the quiver on his waist, he didn't wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and turned around and ran quickly into the distance without looking back.
As for the night demon who is still in mid-air, doing various flying postures, and is completely in a state of cuteness, let it die!
Half-loud, with a strange cry of "Hmm~", the night demon flew over almost against the scalp on Ye Qi's head. During this period, Ye Qi, who obviously felt a burst of negative energy invasion on the scalp of his head, and the biting chill brought by it, couldn't help but be so frightened that he subconsciously reached out and tightened the hilt of the Thors steel sword at his waist.
Looking at the night demon who was in various flying poses in the distance, Ye Qi couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.
After all, Billy's Fellow, who taught him this, hadn't said anything about it.
In this way, after more than ten minutes, I found that every time I ran a certain distance, this night demon would follow Ye Qi in the same way, and he was completely dumbfounded.
He didn't understand why this night demon was pestering him, so he could only pull out his legs and run in the direction of Black Rock Castle.
However, soon, as this night demon leaped over his head again, realizing that he couldn't outrun this night demon, and this night demon seemed to be teasing his Ye Qi, he couldn't help but pull out the Tors steel sword at his waist a little out of control, brandishing the long sword with cold light in the bright moonlight, and pointed to the night demon who was still fiddling with various flying postures in the distance, and roared: "I said that you have enough, and there is no end!" Believe it or not, Lao Tzu will directly kill you with a sword!! β
In Ye Qi's angry roar, staring at a pair of pitch-black, black hole-like eyes, he inexplicably looked at the former night demon for a while, and in the next moment, with a soft sound of "pop", he disappeared into the night.
"Is that okay?"
stared at the night sky where the strange night demon disappeared for a long time.
Although, in the bottom of my heart, I was a little confused about the series of things that happened after I met this night demon.
However, Ye Qi, who clearly knew that he had been delayed for a lot of time, finally put down the confusion in his heart and took steps in the direction of Black Rock Castle.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
At the same time, the other side was standing in the No. 2 watchtower among the four watchtowers on the wall facing the field of Black Rock Fort, looking at Jim who was staring blankly into the distance beside him, and the girl who felt a little irritable in her heart inexplicably, just said: "Jim, don't wait, that Kamit must have defected, how could he come back to die." β
Hearing that his friend on the side had pressed a defection charge on Ye Qi's head, Jim, who couldn't help but be a little excited, shouted: "Brother Ye said that he would come back at night, he must have encountered some trouble on the road and was delayed, how can this be regarded as a defection?!" β
As for the reason why Jim was so excited, it was obvious that among the Night's Watch legions, the punishment of defecting Night's Watch was too severe.
In addition, the night watchman in a certain place, as long as it is defined as a defection, then the night watch troops from all over the human race will hunt it down.
If you resist while being chased, the Rangers in charge of the pursuit have the right to kill you on the spot. And even if you give up resistance and are taken back to a certain place by the Rangers, the general who awaits you will be beheaded in front of many night watchmen!
So, as long as you're defined as a defector among the Night's Watch, you're often in a different place!
"Why can't it be counted, that Karmit left the station for no reason, and he is not a ranger, if he doesn't come back for three days, he can be defined as a defection!"
Although, it is understood that there is such a rule among the night watchmen. However, Jim, who also clearly knew that these regulations were often bound to the official night watchman who officially swore in to join the night watchman corps under the sacred tree, retorted: "But, Brother Ye, he has already told me that he has something urgent to leave and will come back at night, how can this be regarded as leaving the station for no reason." β
"It's two quarters of an hour at night, and has he returned? So, that Kamet must have lied to you, fool! β
"But ......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
At this time, Ye Qi, who was about to reach Bal City, on the edge of the barley field outside the city, was in trouble.
Feeling a chill on his back again, he thought it was the strange night demon who had returned, but he didn't pay much attention to it at first.
It wasn't until there was a crisp sound behind him that in the silent wilderness, the obviously abrupt branch was broken, and Ye Qi, who realized that something was wrong, heard the violent whistling sound behind him when the sharp weapon quickly crossed the air, rubbing against it!
With the help of 15 points of basic swordsmanship, with the help of the sense of imminent battle, Ye Qi, who rolled forward directly without thinking, came forward with an instinct, and after dodging this attack, it was as if he had been trained for a long time, and he did not choose to get up at this time in a hurry, half-squatting on the ground, he quickly pulled out the Tors steel sword on his waist, and his head did not return to the backhand gear.
"Whenβ"
For a while, the sound of the collision of sharp blades with sharp blades was transmitted far away in the silent field.
With the power of the attack of the attacker in the rear, Ye Qi, who rolled forward again, adjusted the posture of his body and stood up in a few steps forward with a quick rush, and only then did he have a chance to turn around and face the guy who suddenly attacked him.
As for why it was sideways and not head-on?
This is to better exert force, but also to reduce the range of one's own attacks, and use the long sword against the enemy's correct posture.
Having said all this, it seems that time has passed quite a short time.
In fact, it is not, from Ye Qi's attack, it has actually only been less than three seconds now!
As for Ye Qi, who had only been in Black Rock Fort for a few days and had practiced swordsmanship, why was he able to do all this in such a short period of time?
Obviously, all this is due to the help he received from his "basic swordsmanship" to 15 o'clock this afternoon.
Looking at this "immortal" who was three or four meters away from him, under the bright moonlight, the clothes on his body had been completely corroded by the loss of time, his body was **, his limbs were thin and thin, and he was holding a rusty long sword in his right hand, smelling the faint smell of corpses in the air around him, Ye Qi couldn't help but guess in his heart: "Zombies? Or is it a **? β
However, in the next moment, as this "immortal" raised his sword and quickly rushed towards him, Ye Qi, who found that its body was flexible and did not look like an "immortal" who had been buried in the ground for a long time, couldn't help but think of a term that the night watchmen often mentioned recently.
"Oh my god, it's a ghoul!"
"Whenβ"
With the answer in his heart, he held the sword in both hands to block the ghoul's head-on slash, and Ye Qi, who was slashing at the sword with great strength, suddenly held the hilt of the sword and pushed it forward, taking advantage of the force of the ghoul to lean back, he directly raised his foot and kicked it out.
"Before you raised your career level, I saw that you could only run away, but now you ......"
Ye Qi, who was talking to himself like this, stepped forward quickly, did not wait for the front to fall to the ground, and was struggling, and the ghoul who wanted to stand up stood up. Directly turned the blade of the Tors steel sword in his hand, and under the background of the moonlight, the blade that quickly slashed across drew a perfect blue half-arc in the night.
In the next moment, the force rose into the sky, and the ghoul's cloak and scattered head just rolled out of the distance.
"Successfully kill the ghouls. Obtain 10 Soul Crystal Shards! β
Listening to the prompt that suddenly appeared in the depths of his mind, Ye Qi, who muttered in his heart: "Sure enough", Ye Qi, by the moonlight, glanced at the black blood stains on the body of the Tors steel sword, and helped the alchemy glasses that were a little crooked in front of him because of the violent movements, and then continued the unfinished words before: "But now, if you come to one, I will kill one, come two, and I will kill a pair!" β
Someone who was self-absorbed picked up the longbow on the ground that he had just thrown aside.
Driven by curiosity, he wanted to go back to the ghouls and take a good look at these monsters, what exactly he looked like, but he heard strange movements.
Looking up, through the bright moonlight, he found that the figures in the distance were shaking, and a few of them were already rushing towards him, smelling the increasingly strong corpse stench in the air around him, how could he not know what these guys who couldn't see clearly for a while Ye Qi was running away.
There is no trace of the previous "domineering outside".
For example, the ghouls, who were agile and powerful in Billy's commentary at the time, were about thirty percent stronger than ordinary people, and with personal verification, he already knew that he could only deal with three at most at a time at this time.
After all, these ghouls have the property that if you don't cut off their heads, or blow their heads to pieces, you will be useless even if you slash them more.
Under such a bug characteristic, don't run now, but when.
