Chapter 4: The Black Sword Case, the Power of Devouring

Next Chapter

As soon as dawn arrived, Jian Xiaozhi immediately opened his eyes, only to find that the mysterious girl had left. Jian Xiaozhi didn't care about the mysterious girl's departure, he was more concerned about the purpose of his coming to the danger zone.

It's dawn, and the mutant beasts that have been silent all night are starting to come alive. Being able to stay overnight without being attacked by mutant beasts is probably because the mysterious girl is helping him, but a new problem is coming, Jian Xiaozhi's only weapon under the attack of the bloodthirsty wolf before is also broken, and the iron sword with less than a foot of sword body left hunts mutant beasts, and the difficulty has increased a lot.

"Did you just give up?" Jian Xiaozhi was a little lost, the weapon is the second life for the hunter, and it is difficult to guarantee his own safety even if he loses the weapon.

"Squeak"

Suddenly, Jian Xiaozhi saw a half-meter-long toothed gray squirrel appear. First, his nose squirmed and sniffed whether there was any danger in front of him, but the residual smell of blood suddenly irritated the toothy gray squirrel. The two teeth were exposed, and after glancing at Jian Xiaozhi with a little scarlet pupil, he quickly stepped forward to hunt his prey.

Jian Xiaozhi gritted his teeth, and the size of the fanged gray squirrel in front of him had reached the half-meter level, at least it was lv3, and it could be the rat king of lv4. In his current state of eating empty hands, he couldn't win at all, and the remaining broken sword by his side was still unknown to be able to kill the tusked gray squirrel.

A roll, Jian Xiaozhi picked up the broken sword and immediately rushed in front of the tusked gray squirrel. Now there is no extra time for Jian Xiaozhi to breathe, and in the race against time, he made a decisive move.

Because of the excessive blood loss due to the injury, Jian Xiaozhi did not eat for almost a day, and the decline in physical strength was even more serious. Just running two steps makes me feel dizzy, and the feeling of not being able to lift my strength makes Jian Xiaozhi feel crazy.

They know a lot about the special sword of the toothy squirrels, and their most powerful weapon is the pair of front teeth, which can bite through a centimeter of steel plates. The second is their claws, which are less than five centimeters long, but they are as sharp as a dagger, and only a single claw can leave a scar.

The weakness caused by the drop in physical strength made Jian Xiaozhi's reaction slow by a beat, and the fanged gray squirrel rushed in front of him in the blink of an eye, stretched out his claws and grabbed Jian Xiaozhi fiercely.

Raise your sword to kill, however, the broken sword can't cut the tusked gray squirrel at all. At this moment, the attack of the toothed gray squirrel is already close, and it is too late to dodge. The broken sword blocked, but the fanged gray squirrel's claw strike caused the weakened sword to take a few steps back, and he fell to the ground unsteadily.

"Damn it"

However, after the toothed gray squirrel repelled Jian Xiaozhi with one move, he took advantage of the victory to chase after him, and the speed was three points faster. The fangs that opened their mouths and exposed had already come to Jian Xiaozhi's face, biting at any time.

Tumbling and rolling, Jian Xiaozhi had already rolled to the side of the extinguished bonfire. For the attack of the toothed gray squirrel, the broken sword in his hand is not long enough to fight back, and if he is suppressed, he will fail in the end.

Take the risk and grab the ashes of the campfire with one hand and scatter them at the tusked gray squirrel to form a cover-up effect. However, the toothed gray squirrel reacted quickly, changed direction halfway and continued to attack Kenkonao.

"Ding"

The broken sword slashed at the fangs of the toothed gray squirrel, but the hard teeth shook back at the moment of the slash, making Jian Xiaozhi's arm numb. Under the detachment, the broken sword let go and fell.

Is this the end of life?

No!

At least for the sake of Xiaoya, Jian Xiaozhi will definitely not give up easily. Even if you lose your broken sword, you have to kill the tusked gray squirrel.

Avoiding its edge, Jian Xiaozhi once again pulled away a short distance from the tusked gray squirrel.

This time, the toothed gray squirrel did not attack immediately, but was observing Jian Xiaozhi.

At this time, Jian Xiaozhi realized that the broken sword just now slashed at the fanged gray squirrel's plate tooth and caused it to be slightly injured, and the original white plate tooth had been half stained red with blood. If you face the attack of the toothed gray squirrel again, the number of times you can dodge with Jian Xiaozhi's current physical strength is really limited, and if you don't let go of that broken sword, at least there is still hope for victory.

Under the mocking gaze of the toothed grey squirrel, it attacked again.

The moment he dodged in embarrassment, Jian Xiaozhi found a black box lying there quietly not far from the bonfire. However, the black box had an inexplicable attraction, as if it was calling him to open it.

Although Jian Xiaozhi didn't know what this black box was, it could be judged by the black and shiny appearance that it was metal. If used as a weapon or shield, it can block at least a few attacks from the Toothed Squirrel.

No longer hesitating, Jian Xiaozhi immediately rushed in front of the black box.

However, the tusked gray squirrel immediately noticed Jian Xiaozhi's movements and attacked again.

"Get out of here!"

It's not wise to punch the claws of a fanged gray squirrel, but it's also a helpless move. It's better to be injured than to lose your life.

The moment the fist and the claw clashed, Jian Xiaozhi felt that his originally injured left hand had become stronger. Even in a weak state, he can exert 100% of his original strength, and all of this is due to the healing medicine of the mysterious girl.

"Bang"

The left fist was grazed by the claws, and blood flowed out, but it did not affect Jian Xiaozhi to approach the black box.

The moment he touched the black box, Jian Xiaozhi felt a force exhaust his body from the black box, and his originally weak body immediately recovered a lot. But Jian Xiaozhi found that the black box in front of him was heavier than he imagined, and he couldn't move his hand at all.

At this time, the tusked gray squirrel had already turned back and attacked Jian Xiaozhi again.

"Damn. ”

Jian Xiaozhi scolded secretly, since it is not possible to use one hand, then use both hands.

However, with all the strength of both hands, the black box was lifted for a few points, and if you wanted to use it to attack the toothed gray squirrel, you couldn't do it at all. At the critical moment, Jian Xiaozhi lifted the black box aside with both hands to block the attack of the toothy gray squirrel.

"Knock"

A crisp sound came from the black box, and the tusked gray squirrel's claws were broken in two because it grabbed the black box.

"It's ......"

In an instant, Jian Xiaozhi understood that this black box was not as simple as he imagined. After being attacked once by the toothed gray squirrel, the black box loses the support of the sword and falls back to the ground with both hands.

However, the moment it came into contact with the ground, the black box was opened. Lying in the black box was a pitch-black remnant sword, which deeply attracted Jian Xiaozhi.

On the other hand, the toothed gray squirrel with injured paws, at the moment when the jet-black remnant sword was revealed, seemed to have an inexplicable fear, did not dare to approach, and even began to retreat.

Jian Xiaozhi didn't notice the abnormality of the toothy gray squirrel, he had already calmed down in the remnant sword lying quietly in the black box. There was a voice in his head that kept telling him that as long as he picked up this remnant sword, he could kill the tusked gray squirrel, kill it.

However, Jian Xiaozhi didn't think much about it at all, and if he wanted to live, he had to pick up the weapon in his hand and kill the mutant beast.

When Jian Xiaozhi grabbed the remnant sword, he couldn't even feel the weight of the remnant sword, and it was clenched in his hand like a feather. But now was not the time for him to be suspicious, what he needed now was to kill the toothy gray squirrel in front of him.

Looking at the fanged gray squirrel that attacked him again, Jian Xiaozhi found that the fanged gray squirrel's eyes showed fear. Although he didn't understand, it was a good time for him to hunt.

With a swing of the remnant sword, a black sword shadow swept in front of the tusked gray squirrel. Before the toothy gray squirrel could react, he was killed by Jian Xiaozhi with a sword.

"This ......"

Jian Xiaozhi never thought that the sharpness of this remnant sword could actually make a sword to kill the tusked gray squirrel, and it did not drop blood.

Here's the problem, though. Jian Xiaozhi would never believe that this remnant sword was an ordinary sword, and the black sword box containing the remnant sword alone knew the value of this remnant sword.

Wait, Jian Xiaozhi suddenly remembered a person, that was the mysterious girl who was with him yesterday. Although she woke up again and found that she had left, there was a good chance that this sword box belonged to the mysterious girl. And just now Jian Xiaozhi also found that the fanged gray squirrel showed fear of this remnant sword, so that the girl could be analyzed, but why was it not attacked by the mutant beast last night.

However, Jian Xiaozhi couldn't understand why the mysterious girl left this sword box, because his iron sword was broken? This reason was not enough for the mysterious girl to leave this sword box, in the hunter is serious, the weapon is the second life, how could she easily leave a valuable weapon for him? But Jian Xiaozhi never imagined that the mysterious girl didn't care about this sword box at all.

Jian Xiaozhi returned to the sword box again, ready to raise it with both hands again, but found that the sword box had become lighter.

"Was it a delusion before?"

If you couldn't lift it because of weakness before, you can say that it was in the past, but the weight difference between the front and back is too much. However, Jian Xiaozhi found that this sword box seemed to be a set with the remnant sword, and the sword box was also equipped with a strap to facilitate Jian Xiaozhi's carrying.

However, in the moment on his back, Jian Xiaozhi found that the previous weight appeared again, almost bending his own.

"What's going on?"

Jian Xiaozhi was really puzzled and wanted to put down the sword box, but he found that he couldn't take the sword box off.

Is it because he took out the broken sword? Everything is a mystery, even if you want to, let's wait until you save Xiaoya.

Jian Xiaozhi came to the corpse of the toothed gray squirrel, ready to cut off some rat meat to satisfy his hunger. As for the broken sword not far from the corpse, Jian Xiaozhi still picked it up, how to say that this iron sword has been with him for three years. Even if it breaks, this is not the place where it was left behind.

At the moment when the sword was broken by the sword qi, an incredible scene appeared, the speed of the broken sword was swallowed by the remnant sword, and the gap that originally appeared on the remnant sword was also filled.

"What is this, what's going on?"

The remnant sword in his hand really made Jian Xiaozhi incomprehensible. The sword box that can't be taken off and changes in weight, whether it's a broken sword or a broken sword that can devour other weapons, all of this is an unsolved mystery for Ken Xiaozhi. And all of this is because of that mysterious girl.
