Chapter Twenty-Four: The Blade of the Wind
Knock, knock, knock!
The burly man looks bulky, but his movement speed is not slow, and his body size of more than two meters makes him run, and the arc of each step is close to two meters, and the distance between him and the two is rapidly narrowing, and soon he is only less than ten meters away from the two.
"I can't run away!"
Knowing that there was no time to escape beyond the dense forest, Gray turned decisively and threw himself at the burly man.
If you can't escape, then fight!
His heart was pounding, as if it would burst like a balloon at any moment, but Gray held back the fear in his heart and threw himself at the burly man.
As an adult, at such a time, he showed a tough psychological quality, although it is very likely that he is not the opponent of the other party, but even if it is death, he must at least try to resist.
If you don't even resist, then you really don't even have the slightest chance of survival.
As he ran, he bent down and pulled a twenty-centimeter-long dagger from his left boot.
Because he was on guard, he was prepared for something, and this dagger was what he was prepared to deal with emergencies.
This is already the limit of what he can prepare, after all, he is only an illegitimate child, even if he is favored, it is only in the last three months, naturally there is no soft armor and other things with strong defenses.
Pulling out the dagger and holding it in his right hand, Gray's heart was beating wildly, but he couldn't help but feel a little trembling, nervousness, and an inexplicable emotion similar to expectation.
At this moment, the fighting talent of the original owner of the body that was fused by Gray was extremely active, eager to fight.
"Hmph, courage is commendable......"
Seeing Gray coming back at him with a dagger in hand, a sinister smile and a hint of contempt appeared on the burly man's face under the black cloth.
The bastard son of a minor nobleman who had not yet held a coming-of-age ceremony dared to resist him, a high-ranking blood warrior who had been in a hundred battles, but it was in vain.
Kicking the ground hard, leaving a heavy footprint in its place, his burly bear body popped out like a cannonball, leaped high, and then punched Gray from top to bottom.
"Hoo ......"
Looking at the huge fist as big as a sandbag, with a roaring terrifying wind, falling from the sky and pounding towards him, Gray's heart beat more violently, but the trace of longing in his heart was even stronger, and it was exaggerated, and it actually suppressed most of the tension in his heart.
Combat talent, born for battle, can only be fully stimulated in real battle.
Unlike the battle with Ellis, that battle was completely worry-free.
Because he knew that Viscount Ferguson would not watch him get injured or killed, but now it was different, there was no Viscount Fergus here, only an enemy who was full of murderous intent to himself and wanted to kill himself.
In this desperate situation, his fighting talent was stimulated to the greatest extent.
Sou!
The power of blood poured into his legs, and Gray moved sideways like a gust of wind.
Bang!
An iron fist the size of a sandbag smashed into the ground.
The ground trembled violently, dirt, weeds, and fallen leaves splashed, and a shallow dirt pit appeared on the ground, and the burly man half-squatted beside the dirt pit, and his fist with metal gloves was embedded in the dirt pit.
Sou!
Behind him, a figure appeared, it was Gray.
Different blood methods can cultivate different blood powers, and the blood methods cultivated by Gray through "Wind Wolf" have a mediocre increase in defense and strength, but the increase in speed is huge.
With the speed of this brief burst, he dodged the burly man's punch and circled behind the burly man.
Swish!
Holding the dagger in his hand, Gray's face flashed with a rare cruel color, and he mobilized the power of blood to pour his right hand into it, and stabbed the burly man in the neck exposed outside the battle suit.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary office worker, and he had never killed people in this life, but when he was cornered, even rabbits would bite people, let alone people.
At this time, it is you who die and I die, either you die or I die, Gray naturally doesn't want to die, so killing the other party is the only choice.
Shout!
The dagger quickly approached the burly man.
The physical fitness of the lower blood warrior is not bad, coupled with the small increase in the strength of the blood power, making his dagger very powerful, Gray estimates that as long as he can stab it, the burly man will definitely die.
However, at this moment, just as his dagger was about to stab the burly man, the burly man turned abruptly and looked at him with contempt in his eyes.
Then, the burly man's thick arm slammed out with a punch, and with a thunderous sound, he struck at the dagger that Gray had stabbed.
His gloves are metallic and he is not afraid of the sharpness of the dagger at all.
However, an unexpected scene reappeared.
Sou!
Gray's figure flickered again, quickly moving sideways to the side of the burly man, and the dagger changed to a stab, slashing towards the burly man's neck.
He used the last trace of blood power, and at this point, his blood power was all gone.
And the move just now was also in his calculations, and he was already preparing to mobilize the power of blood, otherwise under the fist of the burly man, he would not have had time to mobilize the power of blood.
That's right, he had already guessed that the burly man would be able to react and block his attack from behind, the previous attack was just a feint, this was his "killer move".
"Bad ......"
Gray actually changed direction halfway and appeared on his side, which really surprised the burly man.
It was too late to turn around and block it, and the burly man twisted his body, causing his neck to shift to a certain extent.
Burst!
The dagger slashed at the burly man's body, but because of the twisting of his body before, it slashed on the shoulder of the burly man's battle uniform, leaving a deep scratch.
Rumble!
Then the burly man's fist immediately reversed, and a punch was slammed into Gray, who was in his side.
Swish!
The hopeful blow was dodged, and the blood ran out, and Gray had no time to dodge, so he had to sweep the dagger out and block the punch.
Clang!
The iron fist collided with the dagger, and the terrifying impact passed from the dagger into Gray's right hand, causing Gray's right hand to become completely numb, and the dagger in his hand fell off and shot backwards, while he himself was staggered to the ground.
"You're so good, you almost hurt me......"
The burly man turned around and looked at Gray with a slightly surprised gaze.
The upper blood warrior faces the lower blood warrior, there is a gap of two levels, and under normal circumstances, it is definitely a completely crushing situation.
But he didn't expect that he was almost injured in the hands of the other party, if there was no protection of the battle suit, he would probably have been injured at this time.
Although he was surprised, the movements in his hands did not stop because of this, and after turning around, he suddenly smashed a hard punch into Gray's head, and the gray-black metal fist gloves quickly enlarged in Gray's eyes.
"Gray ......"
Caroline, who was rushing towards her, shouted anxiously, wanting to attack the burly man and force the burly man to give up attacking Gray, but it was too late.
There was a hint of hesitation as Gray pounced on the burly man.
Gray may not know the difference between the lower blood warrior and the upper blood warrior, but she has received the most orthodox training from the Ferguson family, and she knows that the two lower blood warriors can never be the opponent of the upper blood warrior.
Although after only a moment of hesitation, she immediately rushed towards the burly man, but it was this moment of time that made her have a gap between her and Gray and the burly man, and she could only watch the burly man's fist attack Gray.
"Is this the gap with the upper blood warriors?"
The fist kept enlarging in his eyes, and Gray frantically wanted to save himself, but the blood power in his body had been exhausted, and even if it was not exhausted, it was too late to mobilize in such a short period of time.
He had to lean as far as he could, but this movement, against the backdrop of the burly man's fist, seemed to be in slow motion.
It was obviously too late, and the fist was about to hit him on the head, and his skull would shatter and his brain would explode.
Swish!
Suddenly, in the mountains and forests, where there was no sound of the wind, there was a rustling of the wind.
"Drink—"
Then a loud shout came out, like a sharp wolf howl, and the sound had a terrifying penetrating power, which spread throughout the gravel forest.
Then, a cyan blade-like light appeared, shooting at an unimaginable speed, slashing at the burly man in the blink of an eye.
Burst!
The burly man's green suit, which was impenetrable to Gray's dagger before, shattered like papier-mâché, revealing a clear crack that spread across his torso.
Blood splattered from the cracks, splattering several meters away, and many of them splashed on Gray who was lying on the ground, staining most of his light gray riding outfit red.
The burly man flew upside down, slammed into a tree with a bang, and slipped feebly.
The masked black cloth fell, revealing a rugged square face full of fear, doubt, and abruptness.
"The wind... It... Blade? Is it ......, how to ...... Yes? ”
Due to the severity of his injuries, his voice was so choppy that even Gray, who was quite close to him, could not hear what he was saying.
Smack, smack, smack!
In the dense forest, a figure walked out, he was wearing a light yellow aristocratic suit embroidered with a wolf-shaped logo on the cuffs, his hair was full of blonde, and his face was clearly angular.
"Father's ......"
Caroline exclaimed, with a look of disbelief on her face, she really didn't expect Viscount Fergus to appear at a critical moment.
"Father's ......"
Gray, who had already stood up, was also full of surprise.
Although he had already guessed that it was Viscount Ferguson when he heard the loud shout and the cyan wind blade, he still couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Viscount Ferguson appear in front of him.
"Well, well done!"
Viscount Ferguson nodded to Gray and Caroline, and walked over to the burly man who had collapsed to the ground.
Only then did Gray notice that behind Viscount Fergus, there was another figure, also with blonde hair, but wearing a black riding suit, although his face was somewhat similar, but he was much younger, and it was Bernal.
Bernal...... Brother ......"
Gray shouted with a slightly glazed face.
Originally, he thought that all this was designed by Bernal, but now what happened?
Bernal actually appeared with Viscount Fergus to save himself, is the previous guess wrong, and the person who wants to kill him is not Bernal?
