Chapter 7: The giant frog fights the spider and flips its back
The only tavern in Snowy City where you can stay is called the Mare Banner.
Generally, the name of the tavern is not very formal, and it has a little sexual suggestion, but after Zhu Peng came in, he found that it was still good on the whole, the cleaning was clean, the layout was neat, and the food materials were enough. It's just that the house is small and the sound insulation is also very poor, Zhu Peng's ears and eyes are sensitive, and he listened to the downstairs talk and sang last night, and he listened to it for half a night, but he was helpless.
Dressed in heavy steel armor, in the rented room, Zhu Peng's left and right hands were faintly open between squatting, and the next moment, the two long swords were pulled out and slashed like lightning!
The Guold Frost Sword and the Purple Demon Pattern Silver Sword and the two newly purchased scabbards were run into each other, and Zhu Peng controlled them with exquisite power skills, which actually made the speed of the sword further accelerated, in the Dongying martial arts system, this is called the sword drawing technique, a force technique that further improves the speed of the sword through the run-in of the sword body and the scabbard.
There are already corresponding force techniques in the Chinese martial arts system, which may not be inferior to the so-called sword drawing technique, but it is necessary to kill the opponent at the moment of drawing the sword, at least to win enough advantages, this kind of mental swordsmanship is inevitably a little eager for quick success, so it is not very valued in the Chinese martial arts system, but this is the difference in the overall fashion of the two countries.
Although he used dual-wielding swordsmanship, Zhu Peng's body was covered with the heavy steel armor he had obtained from the Lord of Balguf in Snow City, because after all, he was from a hard qigong background such as cultivating the Golden Bell Jar, the Iron Cloth Shirt, and the Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Exercises, even in the wizarding world, he was the most top-notch group of third-order existences. Zhu Peng's exchange of minor injuries and minor injuries for the opportunity to directly kill or even defeat the strong with the weak is already instinctive, so he needs to be covered with heavy armor in this world, but it is due to the abnormality of his personal combat style.
Normally speaking, it is more cost-effective to wear a dual-wielding weapon or wearing light armor, and the double knife looks away, and the heavy attack exceeds the defense, obviously holding a high attack double knife, but because he is wearing heavy armor and can't catch up with people, it is more embarrassing. Of course, special treatment in special circumstances is not a generalization, but there are certain differences.
Zhu Peng made up for the impact of speed and agility with his own footwork and awareness, he squinted his eyes slightly with the sword in both hands, stepped down lightly under his feet, and the whole room shook slightly, and those wooden walls and thick pillars made a creaking sound, as if they were about to collapse in disrepair.
With the power of this stampede, the figure of the two-sword boy turned into a series of illusory shadows in this room, and his body was not enough, especially the two long swords in his hands, which flew smartly, flickering vertically and horizontally, just like two poisonous dragons that had been injected with spirituality, between the cold and the breathing, it was full of a thirst for blood!
Weapons are endowed with spirituality that belong to their own characteristics, which is also a manifestation of advanced martial arts cultivation.
Emei chasing the wind is short, the footwork is flexible, the recruitment is secretive, the time to avoid the heavy and hit the human body, it was the most suitable for the dagger to be double-wielded, and suddenly shot between a few steps, taking people's lives like mowing grass, the efficiency is amazing, but in this world, I am going to slay the dragon in the future...... Taking two daggers to slay the dragon is inevitably half the effort, and it is difficult to sustain after piercing the scale armor and muscle layer with the length of the dagger, so Zhu Peng relied on his martial arts wisdom to slightly modify the Emei Chasing Wind short fight to make it more suitable for his physical fitness and shooting style in this world.
Zhu Peng was flying with a sword in the room, stomping on his footwork, combing through the existing resources to increase his combat power to a relative limit, and the two women who were cooking in the mare banner kitchen below looked at the ceiling with some surprise, and dust fell from time to time.
"Boss, it's time to fix it, I feel that the house is a little unsolid. A tavern maid with a slightly reddened skin said.
"Huh, it's strange, you just rebuilt and strengthened it before you came......"
Exercise for a while, stop and think for a while, and then change the amount again, because the diet has been paid and explained, so it was sent in by the tavern maid one by one, every time she came in, she saw Zhu Peng sitting on the bed thinking about something, the whole swordsmanship correction process took Zhu Peng about two days, and then a strong heavy armor orc warrior with a steel hammer came to the door, and roared at the door of the mare banner tavern to challenge Cidis.
Originally, Zhu Peng opened the window and gnawed on the melon, intending to watch the excitement, and it was also boring to retreat in the small room for two days, but after the orc downstairs shouted for a while, Zhu Peng suddenly realized that he was Cidis, and quickly put the cut melon on the table, and then took out his two long swords and walked down.
When Zhu Peng walked to the tavern with a long sword, there were already a lot of people gathered there, and it should be a human nature to watch the excitement and not be afraid of things, especially for the medieval people whose daily life is not so colorful, and they have an unusually strong interest in brawls and duels.
"If you dare to insult the honor of your comrades, I, Vanuer, want you to kneel on the ground and admit your mistake. ”
"Shoot, no matter what you want me to do, after all, it is premised on winning me. The green-skinned and fanged orc on the opposite side seemed to be a hardcore brain-dead fan of the comrades-in-arms, and Zhu Peng was not interested in knowing how it would find its own details, because the opponent in front of him really couldn't arouse his great interest.
From start to finish, the battle was unusually fast.
The moment the heavily armed orc Vanuer raised the war hammer in his hand, it was over, and the two long swords crossed and fell on the orc's neck and throat like scissors, as long as Zhu Peng's hands were twisted and gently forced, Dapeng's blood would flow out...... There is a gap between the heavy armor and the helmet, and the two are not cast in copper and iron.
The heavily armed orc stood there with his hammer in both hands, neither advancing nor retreating for a while, the reddened qi and blood faintly appearing on the green-skinned cheeks, and the surrounding area was filled with the sound of admiration for the amazing speed of the black-clothed swordsman.
"No wonder Vanuer failed to join the comrade-in-arms group several times, but this wandering swordsman was directly invited and refused, the difference in strength is really too big. ”
"It's as fast as two lightning bolts, and in the blink of an eye, those two swords are on Vannur's neck, with the arrogance of rejecting the comrades-in-arms, and indeed with the corresponding strength. The sound of discussion around him made the heavy orc Vanur so angry that he almost snapped his hammer and begged for his own death.
However, the black-haired, black-robed and plainclothes young swordsman in front of it chose to put his sword back into its sheath at this moment.
"Your talent is actually quite good, but you haven't been properly trained, give me a squire for a while, and I'll help you bring out your talent. "Killing this orc on the street will only cause trouble for yourself, and the other party has no intention of killing. More importantly, Amira is now back to her comrades-in-arms to find her aunt, and Zhu Peng needs a companion to carry the spoils of war for herself, maximize her benefits, and reduce her total burden during the trip.
The process of subduing Wanur was not very smooth, it did not agree when Zhu Peng recruited for the first time, but accused the young swordsman in front of him of a despicable sneak attack, which was a typical self-abuse, Zhu Peng once again pulled out his double sword and beat it hard in the frontal battle with the sword face until he fell unconscious, and also made the residents of Xueman City really see what it means to be a mysterious footwork, superb swordsmanship, and the name of the Nether Swordsman Sidex is the first time to be famous in this world.
Two days later, Zhu Peng, who was lightly armed with only his own armor and double swords, arrived at the snowy Hanluo Mountains with the orc attendant Vanur carrying a heavy package behind him, where there was the dragon claw task of the grocery store owner in Ximu Town, the third ring of Zhu Peng's mission to destroy the bandits, and the dragon stone task explained by Fa Renjia, the court mage of the Longxiao Palace, the first two tasks were not enough, but the third task was related to the dragon that attacked Helgen, so Zhu Peng of this cold mountain range really had to come.
"Master, leave these thieves to me to take care of. "The tall Vanur was extremely cautious when he stood behind Zhu Peng, although it was only two days, but after being beaten by Zhu Peng eight times a day, Vanur was already convinced of the strength of his human master, the orc's mind is more simple and pure than that of humans, and Vanur did do it respectfully and loyally after worshipping.
Before reaching the peak of the Hanluo Mountain Range, the two encountered a bandit camp that occupied a high tower on the way, although the other party did not come out to plunder after seeing the tall body of the heavy orc Vanur, but in two days Vanur was already familiar with his master's mind.
For robbers, they have always been killed when they see them, leaving no one behind.
"Go, don't just know how to use your natural physique, use your brain to some extent, think back to the hammer routine I taught you, your orc physique is an advantage, but if you can't use it without permission, it will become the biggest bottleneck in your strength, which is why you can't be admitted to the comrade-in-arms group, that organization will not absorb low-level fighters who have no growth potential. "Although no one can stop the orcs and horses, Zhu Peng did not teach them to Vanur, because these are fundamental things, and it is possible to derive some techniques to improve the combat power level of the entire sky.
Although no matter how much this world is improved at present, it is impossible to stop the wizarding world, but after all, there is no need for that.
What Zhu Peng taught himself as an orc apprentice was just some improved and corrected hammer routines, which were suitable for Vanur's temperament, with quick results, and had the potential to be enough for Vanur to study and temper for a lifetime, but it didn't involve the fundamentals, and the hammer method of this grade in this world itself existed.
After receiving Zhu Peng's promise, Vanur put down the heavy salute on his back, lifted his sledgehammer and rushed towards the stone tower with a bloodthirsty rage, there were only three robbers in it, where was enough for the heavily armed orcs who had greatly increased their strength, and soon Vanur looted all the equipment and property inside, and then took it out, it respectfully bowed its head and presented it to its master with both hands.
"Keep walking, this is not the end. "The cold mountain range is cold and snowy, Vanur is fine, Zhu Peng is covered with a layer of black robe in addition to his armor to keep out the cold, in this world he does not have the physique of a Danshi who is not invaded by cold and heat, Vanur's physique is good enough, in addition to carrying the wealth scavenged by the robbers along the way, he is also burdened with a large amount of baggage food, so that Zhu Peng can boil soup and cook meat every night to swallow.
After gradually understanding the medicinal properties of the herbs in this world, Zhu Peng bought a lot of raw materials in the medicinal herb shop in Xueman City before leaving, and at this moment, he put them into the broth according to a certain proportion of the prescription, and the warm medicine mixed with the food, after eating, he cooperated with the wind and snow of the Hanluo Mountain Range to refine it.
Such internal and external yin and yang, fist and blood, internal replenishment of divine will, external strengthening of muscles and bones, and subtle changes in witch-eating magic, even if there is no supplement of essentia energy, Zhu Peng's physique is also improving at an astonishing speed, the vanur next to him is not smart enough, but the instinctive intuition of the orc is sensitive enough, it can vaguely feel that its human master is becoming terrifying, and even becoming more and more terrifying, and in the body that does not seem to be burly enough, there seems to be a terrifying giant beast in the process of breeding.
Therefore, Vanur became more and more respectful and docile due to fear, and did not dare to have even the slightest superfluous thought, the orcs, who were already proud to worship and follow the strong.
"You just wait for me here, there should be a sentry guarding above, if you see a large crowd of you, it will be troublesome. "With Vannu's five big and three thick body size, it is impossible to lurk and difficult to ignore, but if Zhu Peng is alone, even if he is discovered, he will not attract much attention, and he is also flexible in attacking and retreating.
The more the cold mountain range went up, the colder it became, the wind and snow gradually became faster, Zhu Peng tightened the black cotton robe used for the hood on his body, and stepped on the spacious staircase to climb alone, and when he was halfway there, an iron arrow shot from a distance, Zhu Peng looked directly at the arrow until it was swept away by the wind and snow, and crossed his side.
"Haha, this kid has been scared silly. On a cold day, I just used you to warm up. "From the platform at the top of the temple came down two men and a woman, one with a hammer in both hands, the other with an axe, and the female robber who fell behind used a bow and arrow, and she had shot the missed arrow just now.
Zhu Peng's body is not burly even if it is covered with steel armor, especially in the wind and snow, his face is slightly pale against the black robe, and he looks even weaker.
"Warm up? That's what I thought. As soon as the words fell, the black robe flew high like wings, and the archer with a relaxed expression standing at the end saw two cold rays flash, and the red blood fountain suddenly erupted like a mist, and the two concubines of the female archer almost simultaneously held their hands around their necks and struggled and writhed, and finally fell to the ground.
"Blood is spurting on your body, is it warm, but the blood will soon get cold, so I'll send you to a place where you'll never feel cold again." Standing beside the female archer with sharply dilated pupils, Zhu Peng swung out his sword and slashed her neck diagonally, so that at least she wouldn't feel too much pain.
(After all the things on their bodies are cleared, let Vanur come up and scavenge and clean them up...... It's been a long time since I've been able to meet a really interesting enemy.,The slightest weakness of the enemy will be believed.,The robbers of this world are really naïve and easy to deceive.。 Striding up the final staircase, Zhu Peng pushed open the door of the Hanluo Temple.
It is an extremely old and dilapidated building, and although you can faintly see the splendor of the past, it is now occupied by robbers and wild beasts.
The tasks of the grocery store owner in Ximu Town and the mission of the court mage in Xueman City are here, and by the way, there is also the third ring of Zhu Peng's serial quests, the first two require dragon claws and dragon stones, and for Zhu Peng, as long as all the things that can move in this are killed.
"What's that? Who are you?"
"Dying, please don't have so many questions. "The twin swords in his hands have never been sheathed before, and at this moment, the fire that is being warmed in the cave reflects the blood soaked in the long sword and the sword surface, flashing with a strange and terrifying light!
There were five robbers in the cave, men and women, and when they saw a teenager rushing up with two swords, they were stunned, and some didn't know what attitude to face, until the boy pounced and instantly killed an old robber who was the first to react, and these wolves reacted that it was not a little sheep bleating and running over, but a tiger cub, fierce and bloodthirsty, brave and new.
Draw out their weapons and cover each other when attacking, the remaining four robbers still have a certain strength, but this level of strength is just to make Zhu Peng, who has just corrected his swordsmanship, more excited to fight, the Guunod Frost Long Sword held in his left hand The sword path is mysterious, and almost all the four robbers present have been ordered with a sword in turn, although they are not seriously injured, but the chill on the enchanted sword penetrates into the whole body, causing their speed to drop significantly, and then the silver long sword in his right hand is fierce and fierce, and he kills these people with a flying eagle striking the temple with a sharp force。
Because the body was slowed down by the ice sword, the transition between attack and defense was naturally slower than usual, and not everyone could react and adjust quickly, at least none of the robbers present could do it, so they fell under Zhu Peng's double sword one after another, and the dark blue exploded one after another, Zhu Peng knew that the soul trap enchantment on the silver long sword was activated one after another, but because there was no soul gem on the body, it failed one after another...... The soul gem that can bind the soul of a human being is very expensive, of course it is nothing in the wizarding world, and Zhu Peng can't afford it in this world for the time being.
Twin swords stabbed the last robber on the top and threw him into the fire.
Standing between the mess and the piled up of corpses, standing alone with a sword, Zhu Peng was actually slightly panting, there was a wooden box on the side of the fire, which should be the property accumulated by the robbers, but it was locked, Zhu Peng didn't care about it anymore, it was still a little troublesome to split the wooden box with a long sword, and when his orc apprentice came in, let it be smashed with a war hammer, even if it was locked, it couldn't withstand a few blows.
Following the entrance of the cave blocked by the robbers, Zhu Peng walked in after recovering his physical strength, the underground space of the Hanluo Temple was quite huge, and it seemed that the entire mountain belly was forcibly hollowed out when it was built before, it is conceivable that it must have been a magnificent project with countless manpower and material resources at that time, but the power that established it in the past is now gone, and the underground building of the entire temple is also entrenched by trees, vines, beasts and robbers.
There is only one way, so there is no need to turn the labyrinth, when he walked to a grotto blocked by an iron bar, before Zhu Peng, there was already a corpse lying on the ground that had been shot into a honeycomb by a poisonous needle.
(After all these years, the defense system of the entire ancient tomb is still operating, but setting the mechanism in such an obvious position, in addition to the meaning of the trap, is itself some kind of implication, right?) Zhu Peng is not a robber with developed limbs and a simple mind, he is a legendary wizard with more developed limbs and a not simple mind. On top of the three reliefs of the fish, the serpentine relief in the middle has fallen, but it still faintly echoes the three mechanisms on the side.
Zhu Peng walked over, carefully pushed slightly, and found that it was indeed a mechanism that could be rotated, and after pushing the three mechanisms in turn, and also pushing them into snakes, snakes, and fish corresponding to the relief directly above, Zhu Peng walked forward and pressed the lever, and the iron bar door in front of him really opened.
"Interestingly, the design concept of the mechanism here is not to block foreign invaders, but as a test of observation and intelligence, in addition to the dragon stone and the dragon claw, is there something precious hidden in it, and it needs to pass such a test to be eligible for inheritance?" The swiftness and accuracy of the sword is the direction that Zhu Peng is currently majoring in, and this direction is easy to enter the evil path but also easier to achieve.
Walking down the wooden ladder, in the process, Zhu Peng found several broken soul gems, these light things Zhu Peng directly pocketed, all of them were searched by Vanuer, with its carelessness, it would definitely miss many small things.
"Who...... Someone is coming?Hacknier?Burjol?Thorin?" When Zhu Peng swung his sword to cut through the passage blocked by a thin cobweb, an unexpected voice came, and even Zhu Peng didn't expect that there would be someone who explored here before himself.
(The robbers outside died under the defenses, but he was able to get here first, in other words...... Traitor?) followed the shouts to explore the past, and in a room sealed by a thick cobweb, the constant cry for help came from a spider sac.
"Save me, save my brother, I want you to share the treasure, you can't think of what those Gunards are hiding under here. This guy's pig-like howl woke up the predators in the shadows, only to see a super giant frost-devouring spider that Zhu Peng had seen before in Helgen, but at least ten times larger, slowly descended, and Zel, the great swordsman of the storm cloak, who had escaped with Larov and Zhu Peng, died in the mouth of this kind of poisonous spider. Of course, the one that bit him was just the great-grandchild of the one in front of Zhu Peng, and if Zeer was bitten by the sneak attack in front of him, he was afraid that his head would be gone.
The cave is covered with spider silk and huge spider eggs, fortunately, it is also limited to the too large size, this super giant frost devouring spider can not crawl out of the grotto, if Zhu Peng goes back to the top to take off the bow and arrows, arrow by arrow and arrow continue to shoot, even the giant dragon will be consumed to this point under this absolute geographical disadvantage, if it does not escape.
(This kind of terrain can be attacked when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat...... Just take you to the test, the sword skills I prepared for dragon slaying. There was no delay in time, Zhu Peng directly rushed out with his twin swords and fought and killed the frost devouring spider with fierce swoop, there was a huge gap between the strength and tonnage of the two sides, Zhu Peng at this moment even if he was forced to force the potential to collide with the other party, in the moment before being bitten by the fang-like spider mouth, Zhu Peng's body center of gravity was biased to the right, his feet were pierced to the ground, and the entire center of gravity of his body shook with his body, and instantly slid sideways to the side of the big mouth of the frost devouring giant spider.
The long sword in his hand stabbed into the other party's mouth, the two sides collided diagonally, separated in embarrassment, and the jaw of the frost devouring spider was cut by Zhu Peng with a deep wound, but Zhu Peng didn't fall too cheap, his right arm was almost broken by a huge inertia, that feeling is no different from an ordinary person being hit head-on by a car in an instant, of course, Zhu Peng has never been hit by a car before.
Oscillating and stretching his right arm, the super giant frost devouring spider also stimulated its animal nature because of its injury, and slammed it up in a more ferocious posture after being injured, this time Zhu Peng did not move sideways and was hit diagonally again, but shrunk on the spot and swallowed his breath.
After swallowing his breath violently, his chest swelled up obviously, like a big toad bathed in the spring rain and trying to swallow it, before the super giant frost devouring spider pounced, Zhu Peng held the sword in both hands and turned forward violently, and the double swords in his hands were reversed, and with the strength of this big turn in the air, he stabbed into the head of the frost devouring spider, this time the two sides hedged quickly again, but Zhu Peng landed with some unsteady steps, and the huge frost devouring spider slipped out, and when Zhu Peng used the toad's body to gather a sword through the brain, it had already died directly。
"Whew...... Hu ...... "A short time of fighting, but Zhu Peng was sweating profusely and exhausted, but there was a satisfaction in his eyes after the battle, and after his eyes were slightly closed, it gradually subsided.
"You did it, you slaughtered it! God, let me down before anything else came along. The robber traitor wrapped in the spider sac roared, and Zhu Peng walked in front of him after a moment, recovering a little.
"Wouldn't it be more logical for you to betray your brother and deceive me again? Where is the golden dragon claw, I have searched all the way, and you are the last. "All the people before you have been killed by me, Zhu Peng unabashedly threatened the tall and thin man in the spider bag in front of him.
