26. Rush attack

Ghouls resemble humans, with hands and feet, but walk on all fours like other beasts.

They look like human faces, but they don't see a trace of reason, and they are driven only by an insatiable desire for flesh and blood.

What you see is exactly what is written in the book, but it is more intuitive and terrifying.

The monster in front of Huck resembled a hunchbacked deformed man, his skin as white as a corpse, and the stench of rotting flesh all over his body.

The pitch-black pupils do not carry a single impurity, and exude a greedy and murderous glow.

Large bulging muscles could be seen on its limbs and back, and it was leaning over with its hind legs arched, exactly like a canine.

The front paws have four fingers, each of which has long nails that are jet-black like hooks.

Like most ghouls, ghouls' claws carry a variety of toxins, bacteria, and viruses, and scratches can cause fever, weakness, festering, and even death.

Compared to its chilling pupils and intimidating claws, its thick, black, blood-crushed jaws that reach the base of the ears are even more terrifying.

The yellowed rotten teeth are messily distributed in the big mouth, like maggots wriggling in the big dung, which makes people nauseous and choppy and chills at the sight of it.

A crossbow bolt was fixed on the monster's chest, but it didn't feel like it had any effect on its movements, and it didn't even look like it was hurt.

After a short confrontation, the monster could no longer contain its desire for flesh and blood, and it crouched slightly on its hind legs, and slammed into it.

Huck dodged the blow sideways, and the silver sword slashed, leaving a long trail of blood on the monster's body.

The ghoul landed heavily on the ground, and before he could stand still, he roared and turned his head and rushed up again.

Burst~

Flames erupt from the palm of his hand, crashing into the ghoul who turns back and completely submerging the monster.

The orange-red flames scorched its body, causing the monster to let out a roar of pain, and it began to roll on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on its body.

The power of Igna's flames was nowhere near as powerful as the sorceress's fireball, and after a few rolls, there were only a few sparks left on her body.

Taking advantage of the flames burning and wailing in pain, Huck took a stride to the left and swung his silver sword, making another hole in its body.

When he was still trying to take advantage of the victory, the ghoul nimbly took a few steps back and dodged the combo from behind...

During this time, Huck also tried Alder, but his magic seal level was still too low, and he could only make the ghoul stumble.

Although it can also be used as an opportunity to add a wound to it, this minor injury has no effect on the restorative ghoul.

One person and one monster have been fighting for a long time, but they can't help each other.

The ghoul was covered in wounds, but they were all minor.

It always uses its nimble movements to dodge deadly attacks after fatal attack.

Whenever it is too badly injured, it begins to dodge and wander, causing the witcher's subsequent attacks to be missed.

After the health was quickly restored, he pounced on it again.

In the process of entanglement, the witcher was inevitably injured, and several times, the sharp claws almost broke his stomach.

Seeing that the situation was deadlocked, the young demon hunter couldn't help but be a little impatient, and the dangers arose again and again, which made him begin to be afraid.

The monster is too agile to always make his inevitable attacks come back again and again, and then counterattack by surprise.

The wounds are increasing, and the physical strength is decreasing.

Gritting his teeth, Huck knew he couldn't wait any longer.

Taking advantage of the gap in the ghoul's dodge, he quickly summoned the panel and added the remaining two skill points to the 'muscle memory'.

[Muscle Memory (Level 4): Passive skill, increases reflex nerve speed by 80%. 】

Witcher swordsmanship techniques are mainly divided into light and strong strikes.

The former pursues the ultimate speed, and the key is to spare strength for each attack, which is characterized by swift sword momentum, smart moves, virtual reality, and unpredictable.

Its attacks are incessant, dazzling, and overwhelming.

The most typical representative is the demon hunters of the cat school, who usually wear only light armor and are famous for their light and swift, unpredictable swordsmanship and agile and light body skills.

The latter pursues stability, accuracy and ruthlessness, and strives to defeat the enemy with one move and kill with one blow.

The key is to leave no room for attack, go all out, and crush the enemy with an indomitable, swift and ferocious attack.

It is characterized by static braking, the move is simple and direct, straight to the point, it is difficult to change the move halfway, and it is often decided to win or lose after swinging the sword.

The most typical representative is the Bear School, which usually wears heavy armor and uses solid armor to ensure that they can swing the fatal blow.

The wolf faction is more modest, and both sets of swordsmanship will be involved, but neither pursues the ultimate.

Muscle memory improves the ability to reflex the nerves, and it improves the most for light strikes that pursue extreme speed, but it also has an effect on strong strikes.

After increasing his muscle memory to 4, Huck was noticeably quicker, and he immediately got rid of the passive beating.

As time passed, the scales of victory tipped in favor of the witchers.

After he figured out the monster's action habits and offensive routines, he was completely invincible.

Ghouls have a strong ability to regenerate health, and ordinary scars can heal completely in no time.

Although there are many wounds on its body now, they are all minor, and almost all of them are healing at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

After a long and fruitless battle, and at the same time realizing that humans are becoming more and more difficult, the monster's movements begin to become fierce and impulsive.

It was a little hysterical, desperate to tear apart the enemy in front of it at once.

On the contrary, the witcher fights more and more easily, advancing and retreating in moderation, both offensive and defensive.

From time to time, he launched a stormy rush that left several scars on the monster's body.

From time to time, he put away his weapon, and with his nimble and delicate steps, he dodged left and right, and in the crazy attack of the monster, he roamed with ease without hurting the slightest.

Emily, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, was extremely nervous at first, and tried to make a move several times, but was stopped by the old witcher.

When she saw the dangerous scenes again and again, she bit her lip and forced herself to look away, but the next moment she couldn't help but turn back.

Perhaps the quantitative change converged into the qualitative change, and at some point in the battle, the young witcher suddenly opened his mind and turned the situation around in one fell swoop.

One second he was still struggling to maintain the left and right blocks, and the next second he suddenly turned the defense into an attack, playing with the enemy in the palm of his hand.

Seeing the rapid growth of his beloved apprentice in actual combat, Viselmir was relieved, although he did not speak, but his excited expression revealed his mood at this time.

"Is that what you're trying to do and what you want?"

Emily covered her mouth and looked at the old man with a delighted expression.

"Only through life-and-death battles can we truly grasp the true meaning of battle, for him and for you, it's the same."

The demon hunting master, who was full of joy, pretended to be a high-ranking person, and took the opportunity to teach the female warlock two sentences.

He was overjoyed, and thought to himself, there are really not many opportunities like this!

"However, I still think you are so weak, I am a fireball, a matter of a few seconds, you have to fight hard for a long time..."

Hearing the sorceress's sarcastic words, Viselmir's face darkened, and he immediately said in a loud voice:

"Alright, don't play anymore, let's get rid of it!"

Hearing the teacher's words, Huck tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, and instead of continuing to swim, he rushed head-on.

Seeing that the humans were no longer dodging, the ghoul was overjoyed and immediately pounced with all his might.

The sharp claws were about to catch its prey, and it was ecstatic, but the next moment it was shocked to find that the human who was close at hand was gone.

Huck, who had teleported to the side, did not spare any longer, and the silver sword turned into a flash of brilliance and went straight to the monster's neck.

The ghouls, who couldn't dodge, avoided the vital point, but they were still seriously injured by a blow, and the monster, sensing the danger, turned around and wanted to run.

How could the witcher let him escape, and immediately launched a new round of fast attack.

His extreme speed and agile body skills made his attacks like a storm, and the sword light was like mercury pouring down, connecting into one piece, completely submerging the frightened ghoul in an instant.

By the time the silver brilliance faded, the monster that had been fierce and abnormal just now had fallen to the ground covered in injuries and turned into a corpse.
