Chapter Eighty-Seven: Rune 1

Between the dark trees, the breeze blows and the leaves rattle together. Some white dandelion seeds slowly floated through the air and disappeared into the depths of the woods chased by some small bugs.

Quietly, a woman in a black suit appeared in the woodland, with a beautiful face, long red hair tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, and leather ties on the joints and hands, which had a wild charm.

"How's it going?"

The one who spoke was a silver-haired girl standing in the woodland, none other than Lucarin, Gehr's lieutenant, and the red-haired woman who appeared was Iona, another woman in the squad.

"Suddenly it was foggy, and I felt a little wrong, so I didn't dare to go too far. Iona patted the leaf attached to her shoulder and walked over to Lucarin.

"Fogging?" Lucarin's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she suddenly entered a state of distraction, and it took a while to return to normal, and she whispered with some confusion: "Probably not, the weather in the past two days is not like the weather that can fog, and the environment like the castle ruins is the emptiest in the vicinity, even if it is foggy, it shouldn't be there first." Then he turned his head slightly, facing the side and back. "What do you think, Ida?"

"En......" is a very nasal sound. When the mouth injuries sustained in the earthquake were far from healing, Date could only express her approval of Lucarin's reasoning in this way.

With Ida's support, Lucarin turned to Iona again, "Did you notice anything strange?"

"It's a little weird. Iona nodded, thought for a moment, and continued: "That fog is strange, like a wall, it has a strong sense of substance. I got closer, and it didn't feel like the clammy cold of an ordinary fog, although the temperature was not high, it was very dry, and it smelled of an indescribable fishy smell, and it was so thick and strange that I couldn't see my hand when I reached into the fog. By the way, I also heard a lot of people talking in the fog, and it was that kind of murmuring, which was very weird. ”

"I've heard of the fog, the cold, the fishy, and the inexplicable murmur, let me think about it......," Lucarine dragged her chin with one hand and began to pace in circles.

"By the way, Michian Island is Michian, the island of evil fog. I've seen relevant information before, usually it's a very ordinary desert island, but every time the moon is full, there will be this fog you said, exactly the same as you described, some people are curious to go in and explore, but most of them die inside, and they come out crazy, and the official has organized several expeditions, but it is the same result, it has become a worldly mystery, and it is listed as one of the most dangerous forbidden places. ”

Hearing this, Iona subconsciously raised her head, and what hung in the sky was a round moon that could no longer be round.

......Hearing Lucarin's words, Date anxiously wanted to say something, but she could only make an incomprehensible whin, but both of them understood what he meant.

"You can't go, and if it's dangerous, it's useless for you to go, just send one more. Lucarin said.

"Ida, I think Lucarin is right, it's not a good idea to rush in, it's probably not a good idea to get in, and probably people don't save them, but they trap themselves inside. Lucarine walked over to Date and blocked his way. "So what do we do next?"

"Wait, wait until dawn, according to the information from Michian Island, this fog will dissipate instantly when the sun comes out, and then we will go in. Lucarin looked up at the full moon and said in an unusually affirmative tone: "Trust him, he will definitely come out." ”

......

The crossed sword and the serrated dagger intersected again, and the spark with it was scattered at the touch of a button, and Pluto retreated into the darkness with the help of his strength again, and disappeared in an instant, no footsteps, no breathing, as if the wind melted into the darkness, and disappeared without a trace.

But Geer knew that this killer in the shadows was staring at him from the side, and once he showed his flaws, then the next moment a fierce and deadly offensive would come.

I have to say that Pluto is an extremely good killer, and he has honed his assassination skills to the extreme, so deep that he misses the essence of a blow and escapes, as long as he does not succeed, he will never rashly carry out the next attack, but first hide and protect himself, waiting for the next opportunity to come.

If you fight head-to-face normally, Geer is very sure that he will be cut under the sword within a few moves, and he will not even give the other party a chance to escape, but unfortunately the current environmental advantage is completely in favor of Pluto, this strange darkness can not only block the vision, but even the transmission of sound can be weakened, even with the assistance of the biological brain, Geer is difficult to find Pluto's trace, only when Pluto attacks, can he reluctantly make a relatively timely response.

But even so, every movement and step of Gehr is still carried out calmly, without the slightest panic. The greatest asset left by rich combat experience is to be able to maintain absolute calm in battle, regardless of the advantages and disadvantages in battle.

The hall was silent, and neither the attacker nor the attacked made any sound......

"Do you think you can survive this way? stupid~~"

Some hoarse voices suddenly came towards Gehr from all directions, and it was Pluto.

Gehr was not in the least confused by Pluto's first opening, and the cross sword in his hand flashed lightly in the air, and with the agile movement of his feet, he drew an irregular geometric shape in the darkness.

Puff puff!

The blade of the sword shook three times in a row, blocking the three flying knives that the lightning bolt shot at him.

One of the knives was lightly picked up at the top of the knife, and then Gehr's left hand grabbed it violently, and as soon as he grasped the knife, he threw it in the direction he had just confirmed.

"Huh?"

The throwing knife rotated violently, as if to twist the surrounding darkness, but it was easily dodged by Pluto, and the fleeting figure disappeared into the darkness again, leaving only a slightly surprised sound.

In terms of speed, Pluto is clearly a cut above Geer, and he can quickly dodge every time Geer is about to attack. After successfully dodging a few times, he also saw that he had an advantage in this regard, and some of the attack options were also a lot bolder, obviously Geer's sword skills could no longer put pressure on him, after all, no matter how strong the combat skills were, as long as they couldn't hit people, it would be a waste of effort.

"What's the use of not being able to hit anyone, you're dead......" Pluto once again surrounded Gehr from all sides with a sarcastic voice, clearly intent on disrupting his fighting spirit.

"Die!"

Gehr roared, opened another round of hidden throwing knives, and grasped the exact source of the sound, holding the sword in both hands, the figure was like a high-speed train, and rushed towards the source of the sound with a bang, the huge impact brought a violent whistling sound, even if this darkness has the ability to reduce the transmission of sound, it cannot block the impact of this sound.

However, it still fell short, and by the time Gehr attacked the identified target, Pluto was no longer there.

"It's over. A bloody glint gleamed in Pluto's pure white eyes, and his figure had already appeared behind Gehr.

He had already known that Gehr could find a way to determine his direction, so this time he deliberately made a loud voice again to attract Gehr's attack to lure the other party to reveal his flaws. The results were as he expected, if not better.

Pluto instantly approached Gehr, and his dual-wielding serrated dagger was like the fangs of a viper, stabbing at Gehr's neck without any sound.

From concealment to deception and closeness, and then to the assassination at the end, the whole process is extremely fast and smoothly connected, which is exactly the gap moment caused by the amplitude of Gehr's movements.

Just when the double dagger was about to touch the flesh and blood of Geer's neck, Gehr's back suddenly flashed a phantom, and a sharp cold light appeared, stabbing at Pluto's chest like lightning, unlike the previous attack, this stabbing could only leave a vague afterimage in Pluto's eyes, and the speed was almost doubled!

It turned out that Gehr suddenly replaced the cross sword with an inverted hand in the previous rush, and when he waited for Pluto to attack from behind, he suddenly barbed out from under the ribs, and also used a streamer, even if the attack distance was shortened a lot because of the barb, but it was still far longer than the two daggers, and it was unavoidable.

This is a trap to lure Pluto, and now the prey is powerless to break free.

Pluto's eyes widened to the extreme, bloodshot instantly densely packed, and he reluctantly twisted his body, his hands still handed out according to the original trajectory, hoping to fight for both sides.

But the next moment, Pluto heard a very familiar pop, it was the sound of steel cutting flesh, and then a sharp pain hit his right shoulder, and Gehr in front of him suddenly became short at this time, so that Pluto's desperate blow only crossed the top of Gehr's head and fell into the air.

Immediately after seeing Ge Meng's spin, Pluto felt his body light, and involuntarily flew out to the right of Lu.

Boom!

Pluto hit the column not far away, then slammed it to the ground, rolled towards Geer's feet, rolled a few times, and came to a stop about two or three meters away.

As soon as the tumbling stopped, Pluto propped up his body with his left arm that could still exert strength, and crawled forward like a cartilaginous animal, showing his strong vitality and tenacious desire to survive.

Gehr strode forward, wearing his specially made thick cowhide combat boots, and stomped Pluto's back.

Click!

There was a cracking sound, and the bones of the spine on Pluto's back began to shatter directly, and he actually turned over, curled into a ball, and his left hand still held the dagger and stabbed at Gehr's ankle.

If you are distracted by Pluto's tragedy and relax your attention, you are likely to be hit by his decisive blow that could cause serious injuries that could last a lifetime.

But in the face of Gehr, his attacks were just in vain, and in the line of his arm swings, the sharp blade of the cross sword was already waiting there.

The next moment, Pluto's broken left hand flew into the darkness with a dagger, and the crosssword did not pause in the slightest, piercing into his heart and stirring it viciously.

Pluto's body shook violently like a fish on the shore, and then there was a coughing sound in his throat, and his eyes were filled with blood, as if he had turned into a pair of rubies, and then his body collapsed to the ground limply, never to breathe again.
