Durand naturally didn't know what someone who was even more narcissistic than himself said and did here three days ago, and how shocking the meaning behind what he said and did was.

He didn't know that Hedson hadn't left the Pastor City at all, but had been captured by three men of unknown origin and sealed in the hotel where they were staying.

In fact, when Durand was patrolling the city, he once passed by the humble little hotel. If he had unlocked the seal at that time and then checked it with the power of insight, he should have a considerable chance of perceiving something, but Durand could not remain unsealed all the time, so he only used the power of insight with the strength of level seven at that time, and naturally he didn't notice anything abnormal, so he missed the prey under his nose.

"Alright, let's go." Durand looked up at the snowstorm and the cold pasture in front of him, greeted Vivien, and was about to move, but suddenly frowned and retracted the steps he had taken.

"What's wrong? Any questions? The girl asked curiously.

Durand didn't answer, but glanced around with his eyes narrowed slightly, the seven-colored light in his eyes flickering, and after a moment his eyes suddenly lit up, he took a few steps in one direction, crouched down, put the dwarven musket aside, and then seemed to check something.

Vivien was a little confused by this series of actions, but she also knew that Durand would not do something meaningless, so she followed, crouched down beside Duland, and carefully observed Duland's actions.

I saw Durand groping in the snow and grass for a while, and when he touched a certain place, his face moved slightly, and then he hung over the snow with one hand. Immediately afterwards, an invisible suction force swept out of the palm, and a small thing was actually "sucked" out of the snow by him!

It's not quite accurate to say that it's a thing -- it's supposed to be a wisp of energy.

This wisp of energy took on a pure white color, as small as an earthworm that had shrunk more than ten times. Twisted slightly in Duland's palm. Vivien's face was surprised, she didn't know how Durand found such an inconspicuous wisp of white energy in the snow, and she had a new understanding of her teacher's ability in her heart.

"What is this?" The girl asked.

"Energy." Durand said, staring at the tiny white silk in his palm.

"Of course I know it's energy." The girl's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid that the white energy would be blown away in one breath, "I am asking, what kind of energy is this?" It's too faint. I can't feel any of the attributes. ”

Durand's brows furrowed slightly, and he said with some uncertainty: "It should be light energy, which is left by the light magician?" Or a light elemental samurai? Wrong wrong...... It seems that the nature of the energy is not quite the same, but it is very similar to the unique power of the sun elves, but what stupid sun elf would run to the outermost part of the ranch?? ”

This trace of energy is small and weak, like a candle in the wind, which may be extinguished at any time. Durand smelled the power of light in the extreme. In my impression, it is impossible for human mages and elemental warriors to have such pure power, and in the ranch, only the power attribute of the sun elves should be the closest to this wisp of energy, but there are some subtle differences that Durand can't say, which makes Durand a little confused in his heart.

I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't come up with a reason.

The wisp of energy that a narcissistic man had accidentally left behind when he was smug was finally exhausted. Dissipate with the wind.

"Whew-" Durand exhaled softly, and his breath turned into a cloud of white mist. Vaguely, he felt that this wisp of energy was unusual, but this time, the battlemage's unique instincts did not bring him any obvious sensations or signs, neither a strong sense of crisis like a pinprick or a nervous feeling that stirred his heart to beat wildly.

After a moment, Durand craned his brow again, putting the matter aside, but in his mind. There was a faint shadow that he didn't even notice.

……

……

In winter, the pastures are deserted, and what catches the eye is white except white. Durand and Vivien walked side by side, not very quickly, and along the way, Durand quietly observed the details around him. While talking to Vivian, he would occasionally demonstrate the use of the Orange Flame Ghost Slash in a diagram.

Time passed little by little, and neither of the master and apprentice was in a hurry.

Durand is not in a hurry because the task is simple, he just needs to make a patrol and see if there are any anomalies in the ranch by the way. This kind of task is actually the simplest - just go straight to the alien royal court of the full moon lake and walk around, if there is anything strange, there will definitely be some clues there.

Vivien is not in a hurry, because it is rare to have a time when Durand is free to teach her around the clock. Especially after seeing Duland's orange flame ghost slash, the girl really understood the true meaning of Duland's sentence "The version I taught you is incomplete". Looking at the orange flame ghost slash she cast, the girl has a kind of self that is still far away, far away...... A feeling of frustration far away.

“…… One of the key to the orange flame ghost slash is to be surprised. ”

Durand said slowly: "When you shoot, avoid letting your opponent see any omen, and don't shout to increase your momentum, such as this-" With a slight twist of his wrist, the odd-shaped long knife instantly condensed and formed, Durand lightly grasped the hilt, and with a light horizontal stab, the scorching blade silently broke through a large tree beside him.

The moment the blade pierced, a terrible scream suddenly came from inside the seemingly ordinary tree, and the cry was full of unspeakable pain and shock. The canopy shook violently, large snowfall and the trunk of the tree squirmed, slowly emerging as a huge face emerged.

It was a human-like old face, full of horror and pain, and the blade of the orange flame ghost was nailed right in the middle of the forehead of the face.

The faces in the trees hissed and screamed, "Human, you ...... How did you show me? Damn, damn! It's impossible!! ”

Durand pursed his lips, with a hint of disdain on the corners of his lips: "It's just the lowest dryad in the forest clan, you are only worthy of the level of the fifth level, is it a strange thing to be present by me?" ”

With a twist of his wrist, the blade rotated in the trunk for half a circle, and the dryad suddenly let out an earth-shattering scream. The screams stopped abruptly at the highest point, and the tree stopped shaking.

Durand pulled out the flame knife with a flat face, turned back to Vivien, who was full of surprise, and said, "See? Even if the enemy has already appeared, don't come out lightly, and then speak after you really succeed. Of course. When facing a truly strong enemy, it is not enough to succeed, you must completely kill the opponent, and then kill the second time, and then kill the third time before it is over. ”

Vivien's face froze. Nodding earnestly, he took these words to heart.

The girl was just about to say something, but her face suddenly changed, and she suddenly turned her head to look in one direction, and on a big tree not far away, there was a faint figure hiding from the canopy and heavy snow. Be careful to hide.

When the girl looked over, the man was about to pounce, intending to sneak up on the blind spot behind the side, but when he saw that Vivien had already appeared, the man immediately changed his mind and turned and fled.

Durand smiled and said, "Look. I just told you that don't show the slightest strangeness when the enemy is now, we could have waited for him to get closer, and then calmly killed him, but now we have to waste our body and energy to pursue him. This kind of mistake should be avoided as much as possible in the future. ”

The words fell, and before the girl could respond, she felt a sudden flower in front of her eyes, and Duland's figure disappeared from Vivien's eyes in a flash, and when she reappeared, she had already flashed behind the fleeing man.

Vivien turned sharply. I wanted to catch Duland's movements, but I only saw one last moment - Durand gently pressed against the back of the fleeing man, stretched out his right hand, and gently patted the man's shoulder.

The force of this palm is very light, really light. It was so light that it only knocked off a small amount of snow on the man's shoulder.

However, such a gentle tap happened to make the man's body slightly unbalanced, and then he stepped into the air and immediately fell from the tree. However, the man's reaction was also quite fast, and after landing on the ground, he rolled to the side, got up and continued to escape. However, his body suddenly froze, as a thick, dark barrel was pressed against his forehead.

Durand looked down at the skilled forest archer in front of him expressionlessly, and said lightly: "You'd better put down the blade hidden in your right finger, my gun is easy to misfire." ”

The forest archer's face flashed, and he said hatefully, "Ridiculous! Can I lay down my arms and live? ”

"At least live a little longer." Durand looked at him seriously and said, "Or die a little better." ”

The forest archer gritted his teeth and stared at Durand with bloodshot eyes, as if to imprint the other man's face in his mind. Eventually, however, he put down the wooden bow and the blade hidden between his fingers, and waited for his death in silence. Judging from the shock, insight, and almost artistic combat skills that Durand had just shown, the forest archers knew that they had absolutely no chance of being spared.

From Durand's pursuit to the subduing of this skilled forest archer with little effort, it took only a breath before and after.

It was only then that Vivien ran over and exclaimed, "Uncle, you are so strong! What was that? It's the one you slapped him on the shoulder, it's amazing! ”

"That's a combat technique." Durand said with a smile.

His robes rattled in the wind, but his spear-wielding hands were desperately steady. In a short period of time, the forest archers who were pressed against the head by the barrel of the gun were already sweating profusely, and they didn't dare to move at all. Although he didn't understand how this human could have such a terrifying dwarven weapon in his hands, he knew very well that this terrifying thing definitely had the power to blow his body to smithereens.

The forest archer was not afraid of death, and he knew his future fate long before he saw his parents captured by hunters. On this great 6 of human supremacy, the final fate will come sooner or later, it is just a matter of time, and in what way.

"It's just ......" the young forest archer gritted his teeth secretly, "...... I still have the task assigned by the patriarch to be completed, how can I die at such a time?! ”
