PS: Thanks for licking the bookworm for the monthly pass

Tick...... Tick......

The sound of blood dripping is the same as that of water droplets, but the rhyme of the slow passage of life is irreplaceable.

The two stood back to back, and the two of them were connected by Gehr's rune sword Epheros, and relying on its support, the two did not fall.

Ikar Khan looked at the tip of the sword that peeked out of his chest, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face. He couldn't imagine that such a young man, who was less than half his age, would have the courage to face his blow, and indeed succeed.

With a slight movement of his wrist, Epheros, who had stabbed into Ikar Khan's back with his backhand, instantly withdrew and plunged into the ground with thin blood streaks.

Looking at the hole that appeared after the tip of the sword disappeared, Ikar Khan's throat made a coughing sound, but after all, he didn't say anything, staggered two steps forward, fell to his knees, and then fell to the ground head-on.

A blush slowly dispersed from beneath him, and the ambitious lord had ended his life in this obscure woodland.

"I won. ”

Seeing Ikar Khan fall, Gehr was also relieved.

At this moment, the pain temporarily obscured by the excitement and stimulation began to hit his consciousness continuously, not only in his right arm, but also in his left thigh, which was the wound left by Ikar Khan's fatal blow.

In the previous encounter, Gehr relied on the advantage of the first move to hit Ikar Khan's abdomen faster, penetrating his internal organs and quickly recovering and moving downward, accurately blocking Ikar Khan's last sword, but this sword was relatively hasty. The amount of force is also exhausted, so it cannot be completely blocked. It could only be offset, and it was still cut in the thigh at the end. Fortunately, Ikar Khan's strength was also insufficient. The wound only hurt the muscles and nerves, and had no effect on the bones, and thanks to Gehr's excellent recovery ability, he was able to return to normal again in a few days.

As for the sword that pierced Ikar Khan from behind, it was not to make up for the last sword, leaving him no life.

Ignoring Ikar Khan's body, Gehr tore a few strips of cloth from his armor and began to bandage his wounds. Although the close-fitting clothing was already soaked, Gehr's requirements were not high, and he just wrapped the wound to stop the bleeding.

After everything is taken care of. Gehr stood up and stared at the corpse of Ikar Khan for a long time.

Every time he was in the middle of death, Gehr never had the slightest fear, but had a special sense of excitement and excitement, until he slashed his enemy under the sword and won the final victory, and that satisfaction made him feel a kind of abruptness and intoxication, and this time was no exception.

Water droplets running on the surface of the skin. The breeze blowing, the constant pain in the wound, and the lingering smell of blood, all of which made him feel his presence intensely.

He exists in this world, there is no need to doubt it. So real, so sure, is no longer the self that was obedient to the machine in the previous life. It is no longer a consumable that will only rot slowly in the dirt with no future in sight, but Griezmann Wolfgang Kolbensen, who is now standing at the pinnacle of this world.

Suddenly. He had a glimmer of realization.

Is it the sense of accomplishment of defeating a strong enemy that drives him to become stronger, or is it the constant fight against a strong enemy in order to be stronger?

None of that matters. The most important thing is that he does exist, he has persistence, principles, feelings, ideals, and goals, and that is enough if he exists as a living person.

After that mental torture, he affirmed himself again.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Geer's face, and the smile was so real and natural, completely from the heart.

stepped forward to pick up Ikar Khan's sword, and sure enough, Gehr felt the soul energy that was about to move in it.

However, this time he did not absorb the energy, but extracted the memory imprints inside, which was not difficult for him.

Sure enough, Ikar Khan's memory imprint contains his most profound martial arts memory - D-level sword technique, Haifa Sand stabbing fencing technique. For this kind of combat skill, it is not very useful for Geer, it will only be used for reference, and it will not be specifically studied, because he already has his own way, and the meaning of collecting this combat skill is also more as a souvenir of killing strong enemies.

Maybe in the future, I can make a martial arts library in this world, just like a library.

Gehr thought.

Regarding the soul energy, Geer doesn't want to absorb it anymore, anyway, now the next module can't be opened, and it's useless to absorb it, plus after he knows the source of soul energy, he also subconsciously resists, he wants to become stronger, but he wants to become stronger as a person, not as a beast, and the latter choice has no meaning for him.

Another important reason is that after that spiritual trial, there was a vague sense of confrontation between the condensed soul crystals in his body and his original largest relying biological brain, which made him a little worried, but he couldn't even find the reason, let alone the solution, so he didn't want to continue to open the module until a definite result was studied, so as not to have some unwanted possibility.

At this time, it seemed that the effects of the previous heavy rain had disappeared, and the sun had peeked out of the heavy black cotton clothes, and even in this woodland, which was shaded by layers of tree canopy, you could see mottled spots of light dyed golden red.

A layer of white mist slowly rose, and there were sporadic and monotonous insect chirps, melodious and tactful, with a dreamlike feeling.

Gehr cut off the head of Ikar Khan, wrapped it in his clothes, carried it in his hand, stood up, made the next direction, and then went the way he came.

As time passed, the woodland began to come back to life, and the birds and insects began to chirp more, and all kinds of sounds mixed together, and there was a kind of leisurely silence in it, which made Gehr who was in a hurry start to relax.

After walking for more than ten minutes, and it was estimated that he would be able to walk out of the woodland for another while, Gehr suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, as if something was watching him.

At this point, he realized. The nearby sounds of birds and insects were gone, and the woodland was silent. There was a heaviness that began to condense in the air.

There are enemies!

Gehr immediately made his judgment and acted on it.

The corresponding module was immediately activated, and more than a dozen blue figures suddenly appeared in Gehr's field of vision. They lurked in the grass and moved silently in this direction, light and silent, like snakes moving silently.

Although I don't know where these new strangers come from, if they don't behave like good intentions, then they can only fight.

Call!

There was a loud whistling sound, and it was Gehr who threw Ikar Khan's sword, and the huge murder weapon spun wildly in the air, slamming into a bush, and then a scream rang out.

Gehr immediately pulled back. Hiding behind a large tree, he threw the cloth bag containing Ikar Khan's head out of the way.

Fluttering ......

There was a few faint sounds of breaking wind, and then the cloth bag fell out of thin air as if it had been hit by something, and rolled on the ground a few times to a halt, revealing the angry glaring human head inside.

Judging by the situation where this cloth bag was hit, this flying prop should be something like a blow arrow, but the amount of force attached to it is not small.

The rustling began to sound frequently.

Apparently these enemies had also discovered that they had shot the wrong target, and were ready to approach and use their superior melee to attack the opponents.

When a certain distance is reached, the rustling sound disappears again. But Gehr knew that it was not because the enemy had stopped, but because they had begun to surround him in a more cautious way.

“...... Three, two, one......"

Gehr silently counted down in his heart, and when the number returned to zero, he spun around like this right side pounced.

Clang!

A man in black watched in amazement as Gehr suddenly appeared. The two of them became face-to-face almost instantly, and the weapons in their hands became ornaments for a while. And at this time, Gehr held the long sword upside down. The hilt of his sword slammed into the Adam's apple of the enemy in front of him with a crisp click. The man in black's eyes bulged out as if they were about to fall. Then the next moment he fell to the ground limply.

Gell didn't stop, his shoulders pushed the corpse away, and Eferos swung forward, where a thin sword stabbed right in the sword.

After blocking the stabbing blow, Gehr swooped forward and burst into the enemy's arms, and the enemy staggered backwards, and Gehr slashed at the enemy, and the enemy's neck was cut in half, and only half of the sound was made.

After the two enemies on this side were killed, Geer's eyes suddenly opened up, and the encirclement of these enemies was instantly broken.

The other black-clothed men didn't expect Gehr to break through the encirclement so easily, and they hurried over from all directions in a hurry.

Gehr pretended to run forward two steps, then suddenly stopped, and made a 180-degree turn to the left, just like an eye behind his back, just avoiding the stabbing spander, and then Epheros handed it out, and the blade pierced the throat of the enemy in the back.

The enemy lost one more man.

Kicking the corpse in front of him out of the way, he had already pounced to the right when he slightly blocked the man in black who was following behind, and there was only one enemy in his field of vision, the weakest position.

Bang Bang!

Two consecutive sword clashing, and when he staggered past this enemy, Geer's sword had already grazed the enemy's neck, and at the same time he broke out of the encirclement again, causing a burst of exclamation from the remaining enemies, and began to stir.

With his super ability to control the overall situation, Geer took advantage of various advantages, never giving these enemies a chance to completely surround him, and firmly controlled the initiative on the battlefield.

In less than a minute of confrontation, the black-clad enemy was reduced by a quarter.

The rest of the people glanced at each other, not daring to disperse, forming a semi-encirclement, and slowly approaching Gehr in unison.

Gehr grinned, and excitement began to appear in his eyes again.

He slowly took two steps back, as if he was forced by these enemies, but at this moment, with a sharp kick of his right foot, a black shadow jumped out of the grass, directly piercing a caught off guard enemy on the left side of the formation, and it was the same standard of thin sword in the hands of these enemies.

At the same time, Gehr kicked at his feet again, and his body rushed out, extremely fast, and the direction was the left wing of the formation that had become a little chaotic because of the accident just now.

One of the remaining three on the left flank stepped back, intending to join his companions, while the other two charged towards Gehr.

Gehr turned sideways, dodging two thin swords, and Epheros stabbed through the abdomen of the man in black in front of him and threw it at the enemy on the side, and at the same time crashed into him, Gehr unexpectedly rushed towards the retreating man in black.

Poof!

The panicked enemy could not resist Geer's assault at all, and half of his body was almost cut off, and his body fell to the ground, and a large stream of blood bubbled out.

The rest of the enemy were stunned by Geer's ferocious attack, and for a moment they didn't know what to do.

Gehr was about to settle the rest of the people again.

Sou!

Gehr suddenly stopped rushing forward, and Everrose stood in front of him.

With a loud bang, a black cone landed on the grass, and Gehr was shaken and pushed several paces to the foot of a large tree with a dense canopy.

Just as he retreated to the edge of the tree, suddenly, a silver sword slashed silently at Gehr from above the side, and Gehr did not react at all. (To be continued......)
