Section D, Chapter 12: Dragon Hunter/Meat Ball-3 (Mad Dog)

After one last glance at Lusa, the angry knight straightened his left arm, put his shield on his chest and hurried up the stairs: "He's definitely at the top of the tower...... There should be no place to hide in this place. ”

"It's possible for him to jump straight from the top of the tower, knight. Mad Dog grabbed the dragon hunting arrow and quickly followed: "Have you forgotten the dragon knight who can't die?"

"Dragon knights are already highly resistant to falling, as they often have to jump from a high altitude on the dragon's back. Anusen quickly explained, "But the dragon hunters as infantry classes don't have this trait. ”

"So he has to go head-to-head with us?" Mad Dog narrowed his eyes, "We're two people this time, knight." It's good to divide the work - you go up to resist head-on, and I'll find an opportunity to sneak attack. ”

"That's it. The knight replied succinctly, and quickened his pace: "Hurry up, mad dog, get that guy out there, and we'll have to deal with that rotten lump of meat down there." ”

"Speaking of which, how did that guy move so fast?" Mad Dog asked puzzled, "I was in the warehouse before, and I couldn't see anything in the front yard." ”

The dragon hunter shot an arrow, and the ball of flesh moved as fast as hell. The knight raised his shield slightly, and turned around the corner of the stairs: "Now is not the time to talk about this, we have to-"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the whistling of arrows. Quickly raising his shield in front of the mad dog, the knight resisted the flying dragon arrows.

After a loud metal crash, the dragon hunter standing at the top of the staircase raised his bow and fired another arrow at incredible speed. Unable to stand still due to the shield's secondary block, Anusen leaned back and fell down the steps.

Hurrying back to the right before the knight could knock him down, the mad dog angrily drew his throwing knife and shot down a second galloping arrow. The dragon hunter let go of the bowstring and dodged sideways into the corner, nimbly escaping the sight of the two.

"Knight, what do you think I'm talking about?" Looking at the knight who got up from the ground, Mad Dog picked up the flying knife: "I don't dare to come up for melee combat like this, it's really a wreck." ”

"Alright, you don't underestimate the enemy. The knight gritted his teeth and kicked away the arrow at his feet: "Forgot the lesson of the dragon knight last time?"

Without further talking, the mad dog turned around the corner and charged upwards quickly. However, despite his readiness to dodge, he was not attacked as expected: the dragon hunter appeared to enter the room at the top of the stairs.

Looks like he wants to fight head-on...... Ceresya clenched the flying knife and looked at the knight behind him: "Knight, you go in first to clear the way." ”

Squeezing past the mad dog, Anusen slammed open the door with his shield and burst inside.

Scanning the room, Mad Dog was surprised, "He's probably hiding in the outdoor hallway, knight." ”

"No way. Anusen frowned, "You see, the door to the outside is locked. ”

"Hmm...... Truly. That's probably what he just locked up. Looking at the lock, Mad Dog listened carefully to the possible footsteps, and quickly locked the door behind him: "I locked this door too, the dragon hunter will definitely not be able to get out of here." ”

The stairs were narrow, and he had absolutely no chance of leaving before we entered the room...... Vaguely, Mad Dog was a little worried about Lusha's safety: he couldn't rest assured that he would leave her in the care of Danzi.

"Unless he teleports away...... knight looked around vigilantly, "Otherwise, he must still be hiding somewhere, waiting for an opportunity." ”

"It's like a coward's tactic - hide in a spacious room and wait for us to get close to him and stab him to death. Seresa narrowed her eyes and landed her gaze on the fire. A casual glance made him feel a little incongruous: "Hmm, this thing doesn't seem to be right......"

"What's wrong?" the knight asked, puzzled.

"These edges of the charcoal. Mad Dog crouched down and pointed to the part of the stove where the fuel was stored: "The burnt marks are unnatural...... If you look at the black parts, there is overlap. ”

"So what?" the knight cocked his shield and approached the mad dog alertly: he seemed worried that Celesa would be attacked.

"That is, they once stopped burning instantaneously for anomalous reasons. After that, it was lit for a while, and then it was extinguished again. Mad Dog narrowed his eyes and grabbed some of the ashes: "Judging by the freshness of the ashes, it was at least a week ago." ”

"Alright, I don't think you're saying that. The knight lowered his body: "We'll have to get the invisible dragon hunter out." ”

"Wait, knight. How do you want to move? act rashly, the enemy can stab you in the back with a dagger. Mad Dog raised his eyebrows: "Stay here, be patient...... Don't you want to know what I just said? Imagine that the guy who invaded Lucina's bedroom that night didn't end up trying to escape with stealth?"

"What's the matter?" asked the knight, puzzled.

"Don't you remember, when he was invisible, he released a strong gust of wind?" the mad dog threw down the charcoal in his hand and coughed dryly: "That level of wind can completely extinguish the burning charcoal in an instant." I'm afraid that a few days ago, this dragon hunter was invisible here. ”

"You mean the same kind of invisibility?" the knight's expression was extremely helpless: "What kind of associative thinking are you...... It's just a brain disorder, isn't it?"

"If I had my right mind, would I still be able to call a mad dog?" Selesa narrowed her eyes and looked around, "If I'm guessing correctly, he'll leave a mark just by becoming invisible." ”

Taking a deep breath, Cereya narrowed her eyes even wider, peering carefully into every corner of the wide room. Eventually, his gaze was locked on the door leading to the outer hallway.

On the gray stone slabs, the distribution of fine snow is extremely unnatural. They should be swept into the house by the wind when the door is opened, so that the snow foam should be fanned. However, the snowflakes at the very edge are evenly piled up here in a line as if they were being blown by the indoor wind in the opposite direction.

Is it right there...... Mad Dog thought to himself: We were quickly in the room. If he had been invisible there, he should have not moved to keep his footsteps from revealing his bearings.

Estimating the general direction, Mad Dog quickly threw three throwing knives at it. Sure enough, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded in an instant, away from the trajectory of the throwing knife.

Still want to run??Listening intently to the footsteps, seizing the moment it stopped, Ceresya threw the dragon hunting arrow in her hand with all her might.

The enemy immediately appeared and blocked the blow with the dragon hunting bow in his hand. Staring at the two of them with Youlan's eyes, he silently dropped the big bow in his hand and the quiver on his back.

Reaching for his waist, he slowly drew his weapon. Staring at his movements, Mad Dog couldn't help but be a little stunned.

The weapon he drew was actually a stabbing sword.
