Chapter 182: Changes in Tomahawks
In fact, many people in this world are afraid of fire, because sometimes fire not only represents civilization, but also wildfires in the grasslands and forest fires in the forests, aren't they also manifestations of fire? Fire is not the element that makes up the world, it is the manifestation of a change that is violent, unreasonable, and difficult to communicate. What else is the same as fire? Yes, the feeding relationship between living things is also like this, violent, unreasonable, difficult to communicate.
Hungry creatures are not easy to mess with. Especially when the other party has already found food and is going to have a meal, the person who will disturb the other person's meal at such a time is generally called an uninvited guest. Lothar is now an uninvited guest, so he will surely be hostile and disgusted by the diners. What's special is that most of the time owners who have food to enjoy just want to get rid of those who disturb their eating. The one who was disturbed by the Earl didn't mind adding a dish to the table.
"Haas. "The roar drowned out the wind and the chirping of insects on the grassland at night, and the trail with blood stains and grass crushed brought Lothar here. The Count's torch was raised in his left hand and his battle axe was held in his right, and there was a slight glow on his chest, a talisman stained with the blood of the gray robe performing its task. However, at this point, the early warning effect provided by the amulet was not very good, and the creature that dragged away the corpse and the count were already staring at each other, one showing its fangs and the other showing its weapon.
Most cannibals don't have a keen sense of smell, probably because their sensitive sense of smell makes them unable to bite a completely lifeless corpse, which is the main reason why cannibals don't have an advantage over carrion hunters like vultures and jackals in the wild. Some scholars who argue that the corpse-eating creatures are naturally occurring have used this as a basis for interpreting the habits of these creatures as having to divert the source of food from exposed corpses after they could no longer compete with animals, and the funerary traditions of humans and other civilized creatures have given them such an opportunity.
In the past, when Cheese was so angry about this statement, Lothar thought that his idea was a little too extreme, and the ghouls that appeared in the blue lion seemed to him to be no different from natural creatures, but at most they were different in appearance and habits. But now, in the face of those eyes that shimmered with blood-devouring red, the Count understood why the Grey Robe insisted on attributing the appearance of corpse-eating creatures to a category other than natural factors. In nature, there really should be no such disgusting and disturbing existence. But then again, how can people know the idea of nature?
The thing was at least two meters tall when it stood up, and the visual impression was even greater when you count the thick tail. Its hands and feet are thick, reminding Lothar of a black bear in the forest, but compared to the black bear, the limbs of the creature in front of him are more slender and have little hair, especially the front end of the forelimbs is attached to a layer of carapace similar to a fingernail, and the front end of the carapace is four sharp cone-like claws, which are closed together to form a small shovel. The structure of the forelimbs indicates that this creature is good at digging, which is common among corpse-eating creatures, and in order to dig through a thick layer of soil, this kind of thing is generally not bad at digging into the ground. It's just that compared to most of the corpse-eating creatures, the creature Lothar now faces not only has powerful forelimbs, but its hindlimbs are also unusually thick.
In the era when so-called indoor fitness was not advocated and did not exist, observing people and observing animals were actually similar, and it was only necessary to look at the degree of muscle development and the developed parts of their body to basically determine what kind of way the creature relied to sustain life. From a warrior's point of view, Lothar is able to get a glimpse of the opponent's combat habits and the types of weapons he is good at using by the expansion of his muscles. And his current opponent is undoubtedly the most difficult one, because of its muscles, which are quite well-developed.
The Earl swallowed, fighting with inhuman creatures was no stranger to him, but anyone would be afraid when facing such a beast comparable to a bear lion, and it had nothing to do with experience. Especially, when the beast still has the arm of a corpse in its mouth. The arm had fallen off the main body from the pull that had been too hard, or it might have taken some time for Lothar to catch up with the guy. But this is not something to be thankful for, because it is already some distance from the market, and even if he is bitten in the throat here, there will be no help.
He doesn't need a helper either. The Fool's Justice has undergone a slight change after being used by Batuu, except for the blurred appearance of the lion carving, and the more important changes are internal. Warriors who are familiar with their weapons clearly know the structure and components of their weapons, which parts weigh how much, and which parts are long, only in this way can they find the most suitable position and point of force for wielding their weapons in battle. The appearance of this battle axe was clear to the Count's mind, but now it was a little subtle.
The reason why we say subtle, not good or bad, is because this change cannot be generalized. On the downside, the witch hunting knife infused with the power of the spirits had obviously changed, and the original clear familiarity was gone, and many times Lothar began to wonder if the weapon in his hand still had the power of the prey knife. But on the plus side, the weakening of familiarity is overshadowed by the oneness that never appeared in Lothar's training and actual combat, where he used to be him, and the weapon in his hand was a weapon, and now, the tomahawk sometimes seems to be an extension of the arm. This seems to be not a mere metaphor, the metaphor is a third-person perspective to describe the warrior's skillful use of his weapon, and Lothar now sometimes forgets that it is a weapon when he wields the Fool's justice.
He informed Cheese of this change, but the mage could not give a definite judgment, after all, the artifacts in this world that had been truly infused with divine power, even if it were only the divine power of a god formed by the gathering of spirits like spirits, would not be more than the witch-hunting knife. The witch hunting knife itself is already a mystery, and what will become of the witch hunting knife infused with divine power is a mystery within a mystery, and there is no way to solve it.
"Whew. "With a slight breath, the body is in a fighting state, and no matter what becomes of the tomahawk in his hand, it is Lothar's favorite weapon and his most reliable companion in the face of strong enemies.
The Count shook the torch, leaving its trail in the air, a naked provocation for a strong creature.
"Come on, let me see what you can do other than pick up corpses. ”
