Chapter 11: Shadow Flow Swordsmanship
Entering the mountain early the next morning, the convoy marched in silence for half a day, and at a fork in the canyon, it completely parted ways with the large army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The canyon is long, the interior is meandering, the ground is flat, the rock walls are smooth, and there are no signs of life.
This made the convoy move smoothly, and as the sun set, the convoy passed through the gorge and into a meadow full of green grass and wildflowers.
Compared to the Storm Belt, it is full of life and scenery, and the caravan that had been dull all day has also resumed a bit of bustle.
Once you've come here, you can't camp like you did before.
The servants took up their tools and dug a trench half a meter wide and one meter deep on the periphery of the camp, and put wooden barrels filled with fire oil into it, and cut down leg-thick tree trunks, which were nailed into a wall.
I have to sigh that the strong physique of human beings in this world is nothing more than some servants who have no fighting spirit, the whole trunk with a thick thigh, carried on the shoulders like flying, two axes can be cut off, one head sharpened, pick up the sledgehammer, five or six strokes can be firmly nailed into the soil, before and after only two hours, a decent camp is set up next to the small hill.
The attitude of the convoy as if they were facing a great enemy did not affect Wen Yuan, and after eating, Hans sent Wen Yuan back to the carriage and told him with gestures not to come out at night.
Wen Yuan nodded and went back to work on his own.
In the middle of the night, Wen Yuan, who was dizzy from the fall, faintly heard faint shouts and fights.
When he stepped out of the carriage again to prepare for breakfast, Wen Yuan keenly noticed that the convoy was missing three miscellaneous servants and one escort, and many people were hanging up the lottery.
This gave Wen Yuan another sense of urgency.
It's as if a voice is urging in his ear: time is running out, you have to prepare more!
It may be because he has completely entered the Granling Mountains, and the charging speed of the holy light in Wen Yuan's mind has become imperceptible, and it is meaningless to lie on the roof of the carriage and suffer again.
Wen Yuan thought for a moment, walked over to the nearest horseback guard, and signaled that he wanted to try.
No one in the convoy was unaware of the importance that the witch Caphora attached to Wen Yuan, perhaps thinking that befriending a big man would bring him good luck, and the guards were a little flattered and helped Wen Yuan onto the horse.
It is a docile creature, resembling a horse, but taller, with horns on its head and a three-inch stiff liner above its hooves, making it the easiest animal to ride in large-scale captivity.
With the help of the guards, after getting through the initial tense period, Wen Yuan quickly became more at ease.
Although the practice time is not long, and there is still no successful record, Wen Yuan has been able to clearly discover the changes brought to him by the secret technique of dogfish touching shrimp.
When he was on Earth, Wen Yuan's physical fitness was very poor, no matter what ball game he played, he was clumsy, and even if he played competitive games, he could only linger in the middle of the game. Further up, the consciousness can keep up, but the hands can't.
Such athletic talent should be considered relatively poor, and Wen Yuan knows this well.
After crossing over, he was first strengthened by the holy light to create a good body, and then strengthened by the temptation of the succubus.
But it didn't work.
Wen Yuan sometimes felt that this body was not his own, and it was awkward and uncomfortable to control, so he fell so earth-shattering on the first day.
However, after a few days, Wen Yuan really felt the progress, such as his hands becoming steady, his reaction faster, his movements more coordinated, and his body was no longer full of strength, but full of elastic relief.
For example, today, on a whim, I want to learn how to ride, although I have never been exposed to it before, but after careful observation, the conclusion that the body feeds back to the consciousness is "It's very simple, I can do it".
So Wen Yuan gave it a try, and it turned out that it was really easy to master the balance and rhythm.
It is said that, like the brain, the body has the ability to learn. Wen Yuan didn't believe it before, but now he found out that maybe it was true.
Six nights, more than 10,000 high-intensity exercises, constant injuries, healing, continuous detachment and recovery, made his whole person begin to glow with a kind of brilliance.
Like a billet, in the continuous grinding, little by little, began to have the appearance of a sword.
At lunchtime, Wen Yuan jumped off the horse, stumbled slightly, and then walked to the dining place as if nothing had happened.
Riding for too long made his inner thigh have some abrasions, and the fire hurts, but it does not affect his activities.
Wen Yuan ignored it, he had suffered more injuries in the past few days than in the past 30 years, and he had learned to tolerate the pain.
When you save up to affect the action, you can save a little bit of holy light energy, and the current situation is really to use one point, one point less.
At lunchtime, there was also a little episode.
After eating, before Wen Yuan was about to leave, Hans grabbed him and handed him a transparent crystal the size of a pigeon's egg.
Hans gestured for a long time, asking Wen Yuan to be careful in the afternoon, hold the gem and don't let go, and return to the carriage as soon as possible if there is danger.
Since the veteran thought that there might be danger in the afternoon, Wen Yuan didn't ride again, and sat down next to the driver's seat in his carriage, playing with the crystal that had just arrived.
The crystal is diamond-shaped as a whole, beautifully cut, and faintly exudes wonderful fluctuations, which is obviously a magical item.
Identifying magical objects is an extremely complex discipline that requires a wide range of knowledge, as well as a considerable degree of magical attainment, which Wen Yuan has not yet touched.
However, it is very good to judge that ninety percent is a protective item, which is from the hand of the butler or the witch Caphora, and is used to save his life.
It may not be able to be used, but if you are prepared, Wen Yuan put the crystal in his trouser pocket and began to close his eyes to recuperate.
I don't know how long I slept, but when Wen Yuan was woken up by the coachman next to him, a group of demon wolves embellished the convoy.
The convoy had stopped, and the guards were organizing the defensive line. Fortunately, it was detected early, and if it was attacked on the way, it would be a disaster.
Perhaps realizing that they had lost the opportunity to sneak attack, the demon wolves dispersed on the spot, half-surrounded the convoy, and slowly approached.
"Damn, these brutes, you thought you could sneak up on us like you did last night, come on, wolf cubs, and taste the power of your Uncle John!"
While thinking in pieces, Wen Yuan's coachman took out a crossbow from under the seat of the car and set up a twenty-centimeter-long pure steel crossbow arrow in the arrow trough.
Turning his head to look around, a total of twelve crossbows, around the assembled carriage, formed a network of fire, scattered around the side of the servants armed with steel forks and felling axes, protecting each other.
On the outermost periphery, the guards held knives, shields, and spears to form a semi-circular defensive line, holding on to the slowly approaching demon wolf.
The atmosphere gradually became solemn as the demon wolf got closer and closer.
The demon wolf, as the name suggests, is a demonized wolf, an ordinary monster that can be seen everywhere on the continent.
But in the Granling Mountains, a perennial area eroded by negative energy, the demon wolf is stronger and more dangerous.
This group of demon wolves, about twenty or so, each of them is more than two meters long, the shoulder height is more than one meter five, the body is as strong as a calf, the fur is smooth and black, the two turned out fangs are ten centimeters long, and the throat constantly emits a low roar, bringing strong pressure to everyone.
However, what is surprising is that the first to attack is not the demon wolf, but the archer Aaron!
To be honest, Wen Yuan didn't see what happened clearly at all, only to see a demon wolf fall to the ground with a scream, and then another black light flashed, and the head of another demon wolf not far away exploded into flesh and blood.
It was only then that the whistle of the bowstring breaking open reached my ears!
The two demon wolves fell to the ground, and the remaining demon wolves let out one after another and began to sprint, like a black hurricane, sweeping in.
The sound of buzzing crossbow arrows sounded continuously, and 12 steel arrows covered the two demon wolves that hit the head, no more, no less, exactly 6 for each head.
It was only then that I really saw the horror of the demon wolf.
The one on the left, immediately made a sharp stop and turned, and ran out diagonally, only the back was scraped, and the crossbow arrow swept along the shiny fur, and the force did not decrease, and it did not enter the grass, but it did not even leave a blood mark.
The demon wolf on the right was even more ferocious, and it accelerated again during the sprint, like a black lightning bolt that instantly passed through the rain of arrows, and it was unscathed!
Wen Yuan turned his head to look at the archer Aaron, only to see that his eyes were like lightning, wandering around, holding a feather arrow in his right hand, but he did not shoot immediately, but was constantly looking for opportunities.
Wen Yuan immediately understood that the two kills just now were not ordinary archery techniques that could be sent out at will, and to really fight, it was necessary to gather everyone's strength.
It was just a breath of time, and the demon wolves had already scurried within ten meters of the defensive circle, and at this time, Wen Yuan heard a loud roar, only to see the brute bull carrying a war hammer, passing over everyone, and meeting it alone!
"Ahh
With a roar, the brute bull rounded his arms and hit the demon wolf that was rushing head-on, and it was a hammer on the head!
The beast's reaction was incomparably nimble, with an afterimage, it jumped high in the air, not only dodging this amazing blow, but also leaping over a distance of ten meters and pounced on the guards in the back row.
Between the lightning and flint, I saw the seemingly empty hammer of the wild bull, smashed to the ground extremely violently, and let out a dull roar, a total of six demon wolves nearby, instantly fell to the ground, with the inertia of the sprint, the ground rolled towards the human wall like a gourd!
This is the extraordinary power of the "Earth Hammer"! An unguardable, powerful range shock!
At the same time, a shield in both hands stepped forward to meet the demon wolf that had swooped in earlier.
The huge impact force made him unable to completely unload even if he retreated and squatted, and fell to the ground on his back, pressed under him by the demon wolf and his shield.
However, the superb unloading skills still made the demon wolf get stuck in the neck by a steel fork before he could make any movements, and he was slammed to the ground!
The demon wolf was just about to struggle, but its front paws were only half raised, and the crowd was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, burrowing out a spear, piercing it through the eye socket, and shattering the brain!
"Oh yes, a good skin!"
Licking his lips excitedly, the man pulled out his spear, half-turned his body, and aimed at another demon wolf.
Almost in just a few breaths, the seven demon wolves that rushed over from the front had all been wiped out, but without a powerful martial artist like the Brute Bull, the situation on the flanks was not good.
Three on the left, four on the right, the first batch of demon wolves that rushed over, with only one impact, broke through the outer defense line and entangled with the guards.
Although they have an advantage in numbers and can weaken the speed of the demon wolf by containing multiple people, these are at most only the guards of the Myojin realm, and it is still very reluctant to fight against the strong body of the demon wolf.
It is often a blow that uses a fighting spirit, and is cunningly avoided by the demon wolf, and the attack that is not strong enough can only bring a shallow scar to the demon wolf at most, and once it is replaced, it is basically the end of being seriously injured and falling to the ground.
It wasn't until Aaron shot the two demon wolves again, and Hans, who was in the crowd, also took a cold breath and eliminated three of them, that the situation stabilized, and only two were left to survive, and their destruction was imminent.
At this time, more than ten seconds had only passed, and the remaining thirteen demon wolves had already started to sprint, and they were only less than 15 meters away from everyone!
There are still two in the defensive circle that have not been resolved, the formation has become chaotic, and more than ten guards and servants have been injured, and the situation is already extremely bad!
Wen Yuan is ready, as long as there is another demon wolf rushing to the front, he will obediently roll back to the carriage, and don't look at the rest of the excitement, he is really injured at this time, and he really can't do it.
Maybe he didn't want to see more losses, and the butler, who had been disappearing before and didn't know where to hide, finally made a move.
I only heard a hoarse and gloomy chanting mantra, and a black ripple that was no more than an inch wide and clearly visible to the naked eye exploded from the car array, passing through the gap around everyone like a living thing, without touching any human beings, but accurately finding a demon wolf, and then began to bounce between the demon wolves......
In the blink of an eye, none of the fifteen demon wolves were missed, and they were patronized one by one!
No matter what posture the demon wolf was before, whether it was near or far, now it fell to the ground, rolling and wailing bitterly, and the wolf's claws pulled the ground, but it was so soft that it couldn't even dig out a dirt pit.
Soon, he was shot one by one by the guards, and he was easily killed without much effort.
Wen Yuan's eyes froze, and he felt pressure in his heart.
Simply powerful is not terrible, powerful and weird is the most terrifying!
A mage who can do this level will definitely become a big trouble if the conflict is not resolved in the first place.
Secretly raised the danger level of the housekeeper, Wen Yuan made up his mind, as long as there was a chance, he would be the first to open the knife, and he would never be given the opportunity to release the spell.
In order to achieve this purpose, it is first necessary to find out the automatic protection spell of the housekeeper, as well as the stress mechanism and protection strength of the corresponding talisman treasure.
It just so happens that he has such a life-saving crystal on his body, and he is reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, and when he has a certain combat ability, it is necessary to go into battle in person, to experiment, and at the same time accumulate combat experience, which is a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.
Determined not to waste any more time, Wen Yuan quickly returned to his room and began the arduous masochistic exercises.
