Chapter 37: Werewolves
As Roy said he was the top fencing master in Europe, as soon as he made a move, he completely suppressed me so much that I couldn't hold my head up. I could only do my best, step by step, barely fending off his stormy attack.
Martial arts in the world, only fast is not broken. Li Mantou's swordsmanship is not necessarily very clever, but his attack speed is extremely fast, and each sword is powerful and heavy, which makes people unguardable. The slightest mistake will add a wound to my body. After a dozen strokes, I was already scarred and in pain.
Li Mantou seemed to be intent on torturing me, and each wound was not fatal, nor was it very big, but it hurt badly. His sword was heavy, and every time I fought with him, I had to be under tremendous pressure. So much so that later, I had to hold the sword in both hands to barely hold the hilt.
This necromancer was not the vampire, and neither the power of the Buddha nor the silver-plated Templar sword had any effect on him.
After a few more moves, I was exhausted, my arms were numb, and I was trembling so badly that I could only grit my teeth and stiffen. Li Mantou put away his sword, nodded very appreciatively, and said: "Young man, you are very good, in the long time since you came to China, you are the first person who can pick me up for more than 20 moves." Many swordsmanship masters can't even take my three moves. With your current cultivation, you can be very proud. ”
I smiled miserably: "Thanks to the praise, if you can't beat it, you can't beat it, you can only blame yourself for not being good at learning, less nonsense, and dying in the hands of a master like you, I'm worth it." ”
Li Mantou looked at me with interest and said, "No, no, no, I admire you very much, but I'm really reluctant to kill you." Let's talk about the conditions. ”
"On what terms?"
Li Mantou smiled: "You are a manufacturable material, I have never met a master as young as you." If you are willing to worship me as a teacher, not only can I teach you everything I have learned all my life, but even if I am in the future, you will inherit it, how about it? You don't have to doubt the truth of what I said, I don't need to deceive you, because you are too weak. Also, the ice ghost that you subdued was obtained by me when I almost lost my life, and if you are willing to nod, I will give it to you as a gift for the apprentice, how about it? ”
Li Mantou said, taking a ring from the ring finger of his left hand and shaking it in front of my eyes. The ring was inlaid with a sapphire the size of a peanut, dazzling, and it was thought to be the container he used to seal the ice ghost.
Not to mention this ice ghost, even this sapphire is already worth a fortune.
As soon as Li Mantou said this, there was an uproar in the audience. The fight had all stopped, and everyone looked at me, waiting for me to make a decision.
Roy was covered in blood, and all his clothes were torn, revealing his strong chest muscles. It's just that there is not a trace of wounds on his body, and it seems that the blood stains are all from Wang Yaoyu. At this time, Wang Yaoyu was extremely weak, and two female vampires were taking out plasma to feed him.
Roy was clearly victorious, and he looked at me breathlessly, his eyes complicated. Fang is the king of the roasted fish to tempt Roy, but he was killed by Roy. At this time, Li Mantou came to woo me, and the conditions offered were even more tempting. He and I have only known each other for less than a month, and we have not had a good friendship with each other, so he must have been worried that I would not be able to resist the temptation for a while, so he agreed.
And Kaka looked at me with a nervous face, his eyes were full of anxiety, as if to say, don't promise, don't promise!
I looked at Li Mantou with an eager face, smiled miserably, shook my head and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency can afford to look at you, and make you very frightened." It's just that I am shallow in school, and I am afraid that I will lose your prestige. Moreover, since Your Excellency is familiar with our Chinese culture, you should have also heard the saying that you will be a teacher for one day and a father for life. If I switch to them halfway, I will inevitably be scolded as a disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous rebel in the future, and everyone will be punished for it. Therefore, Your Excellency's kindness has been received, but it is difficult to obey it. ”
As soon as I said this, both Kaka and Roy, who had only listened, breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that I had not disappointed them.
The anticipation on Li Mantou's face immediately dissipated, and was replaced by disappointment. He all regretted: "It's a pity, it's a pity, since you don't want to join us, you're my enemy." I can't afford to leave the aftermath behind, so, today, I must kill you! ”
"It's just death, what are you afraid of, come!" I clenched the hilt of my sword and prepared to fight to the death.
Li Mantou stroked his stabbing sword, his face turned grim, and said: "I will give you a decent way to die, don't worry, after you die, I will scatter your soul and burn your body, and it will not fall into the hands of those with ulterior motives, and your soul will not be at peace." ”
As he said this, he turned his face and glanced at Li Dahong, this corpse chaser can do everything. And that Li Dahong knew that he was not his opponent, although he knew in his heart that this sentence was talking about himself, but he dared not speak out.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a sadness in my heart. Master said that I have the destiny of nine deaths and nine lives, can I really not resist it? Is fate really predestined and unchangeable?
As soon as I thought of this, a wave of grief and indignation surged in my heart, and it instantly poured into my whole body like a flood. Even if the wounds are all over the body, I don't feel pain anymore. I raised my head and looked at this giant Buddha that was grounded in the sky, and said with relief in my heart: "I don't know what year this Buddha statue was built, but as a disciple of Buddhism, although he is only a registered lay disciple, it can be regarded as seeking benevolence and benevolence if he can die at the feet of the Buddha." ”
When I think of this, I only feel that there is an invisible but very familiar force transmitted from the ground under my feet, all over my body, very comfortable, but also amazing, and I wonder where this energy comes from.
For a moment, I felt as if there was a pair of compassionate eyes watching me. When I want to feel it carefully, but I can't feel anything.
For a moment, all the fighting stopped, and Kaka and Roy stood behind me, looking at me with concern. From time to time, Roy looked up at the sky, worried. I closed my eyes and felt the familiar power. A heart gradually calmed down, as if it had settled down.
"Pick up!"
Li Mantou shouted, and the sword in his hand was like a poisonous snake coming out of a hole, like lightning in the sky, unspeakably fast. However, at this time, I really saw everything clearly. The trembling of Li Mantou's muscles when he took out the sword, the frequency of the trembling of the tip of the sword, and the air disturbance stirred up by the sword splitting the air were all clear.
As soon as my mind moved, the sword in my hand reacted immediately, striking swiftly. Just listen to the buzz of "dang", the two swords intersect, and sparks fly. My sword just hit the weakest point of Li Mantou's stabbing sword, and his sword was violently deflected.
Li Mantou immediately took a step back and looked at me with a surprised expression, wondering why I had suddenly become stronger. Don't say it's him, even I feel inexplicable.
This move gave me great confidence, so I opened my sword and began to attack. However, after all, Li Mantou is a master who has been famous for a long time, and he has extremely rich experience in facing the enemy, which is not comparable to a fledgling boy like me. After the initial surprise, he immediately changed his tactics and played steadily. After a few moves, I began to lose the upper hand again, and was suppressed by Li Mantou.
It was another hard battle, and I had no time to deal with it except to be tired. I wanted to channel that strange force, but I found that the more anxious I was, the more I couldn't do it. Seeing more and more flaws, the tip of the sword jumping in front of me was like a kiss of death, piercing me at any time.
After struggling to support more than a dozen moves, Li Mantou said as he made a move: "Young man, you are impressing me more and more, it seems that if I retain my strength, it will be disrespectful to you." Say goodbye! ”
As soon as his words fell, he suddenly took a step back, and the sword in his hand danced a sword flower, and stabbed me in the chest in a plain manner. In the eyes of the people around him, this trick was unpretentious, and even seemed a little clumsy. But only I could feel it in the middle of it, and the breath of death that came out of the slightly trembling tip of the sword had firmly locked on me, sealing all my retreats. No matter which way I dodged, it would hit the tip of the sword.
A heavy sense of powerlessness suddenly rose in my heart, and even a thought of giving up resistance came to my heart. The knight's sword in his hand flipped over and rested on the body of the sword, but it could not contain his sword momentum in the slightest. The sword sparked and stabbed straight into my heart.
At that moment, something suddenly changed around me. I only heard a deafening roar from my side, a big hand suddenly grabbed the shoulder strap of my backpack, and threw it back, I only felt that my body was light, and flew out four or five meters away with a "whoosh", and Li Mantou's sword pierced the air!
I struggled to get up from the ground, only to see that it was Roy who threw me out. At this time, Roy seemed to be in pain, and let out a low roar as he pulled the fur off his body. Immediately after, something happened that made me feel like I was dying.
Roy's body began to swell like a balloon, and thick black hairs grew all over his body. His face began to bulge, and his fingernails became sharp and long.
Kaka rushed over, pulled me up, looked at Roy in horror, and said in a trembling voice, "Oh my God, I should have guessed that Roy was the werewolf!" It's the fifteenth, and he's going crazy! ”
I hurriedly looked up at the sky, only to see a bright moon on the horizon, just in time to reach the full moon.
Roy, who was transforming, had not lost his mind at this time, turned his deformed face, and said to us: "Run with Qingqing, road!" If I lose my mind, don't forget the tube of medicine I entrusted to you! ”
I see, no wonder he refused to say the use of this medicine at that time, so it was!
"Run!" Kaka shouted, the two of us didn't stop, picked up Wu Qingqing and ran into the dense forest. At the same time, Roy, who turned into a werewolf, fought with the necromancer Li Mantou. Seeing this, the surrounding vampires, Li Dahong and others shouted loudly and chased after them.
