Astartes of the Bear School Chapter 819

Chapter 819 Chapter 801. Challenge Dinosaurs

The flannel ball trotted on all fours, often running in front of the two demon hunters.

 Then he raised his little head and sniffed around. It seems that he is recording the monster smell of this world with his own nose.

The sound of its acorn shell armor's clanking sounds lively and pleasant.

 “Can this kitten really help?”

Geralt moved forward on the gravel-covered river beach one step at a time, joking to Lan next to him.

“I think the size of the velvet ball is about the same as that of a five-year-old child. With this kind of weight and muscle mass, it's hard to call it effective lethality, right?”

Lan En shrugged indifferently.

“Don't underestimate Ellu Cat. He is a powerful guy in his species, but he can hunt dragons on his own.”

“Dragon? Dragon-like creatures like pterodactyls and fork-tailed dragons?”

 “No.” Lan En said expressionlessly.

It's just that although the giant dragons in this world have wisdom and even magic, their vitality and defense are not much stronger than those of their distant relatives, namely the pterodactyls and the fork-tailed dragons.

"It's the kind of dragon with a body length of more than ten meters, a shoulder height of seven or eight meters, and a total weight of dozens of tons. Did you know that some fossils were excavated by Oxenford University during this period? They are different from the skeleton of the giant dragon. They named paleontological fossils that are at least hundreds of millions of years old 'dinosaurs'."

 Even a few strong humans, equipped with sophisticated weapons and equipment, and crossbows with sufficient range and power, can form a team to hunt the dragon.

 Steel arrowheads can pierce skin and muscles and get stuck in bone seams, and scaled skin cannot resist sword blades and hammer heads.

　　That is the famous Clynnfield Raider.

Lann glanced at Geralt strangely.

“Size and strength are not decisive factors in combat. I think witchers especially know this.”

“But I always feel that judging from the brain capacity of those skeletons, dinosaurs should not be without intelligence.”

“After all, among our predecessors, there are still people who have hunted real dragons.”

 But experienced hunters can eventually add up to a small amount and use their own attacks to wear away the monster's inexhaustible vitality and hard carapace.

 And in El Cat's hometown, the monster world. The dragons there have stronger vitality and defense. If they are hit by big arrows like siege crossbows, as long as they don't get hit too many times, it will be as if nothing happened.

“Most of the dragons they face like flannel **** are like that.”

  Don't look at the fact that witchers spend most of their time sleeping in the open air, far away from populated areas, and live like a savage. But they are actually the most highly educated people of this era.

“'Dinosaurs'? I heard Dandelion say a few words. He said that this is a great discovery in the history of biology, and it is proof of an era when all life has not yet developed intelligence.”

Even the professors and students of Oxenford will feel the ease and joy of equal communication when communicating with the witcher.

 So facing the hunters who are well prepared, one must die or die.

But the size difference between giant dragons and humans is real. An adult giant dragon can even be about the same size as a blue whale, and its mouth can allow two armored warriors to fight inside.

Although in the magical Middle Ages, dragons were not some irreversible natural disaster.

Geralt thought for a while and then nodded in agreement.

This kind of "equality" does not refer to status or worth, but to the knowledge reserves and intellectual development of both parties.

“And, is it really possible for El Cat to hunt something of that level alone?”

“The battle of defeating the big with the small, we carry out every mission. After all, even now, I cannot weigh more than a rock troll, but they will still die under your sword.”

“Experience and wisdom, with these two things, there is always a chance to bridge the gap in size and strength.”

“That's right.” Geralt agreed with Lan En's statement and tilted his head towards the excited flannel ball in front of him.

“So you're going to train it to be the kind of Elu cat that can take on dinosaurs?”

　　When Geralt reached the end of his sentence, he uncontrollably ground his back molars.

“It can't be considered training, let's make progress together.” Lan En's boots accidentally stepped into the water, causing a splash.

 “Don't you think that Linqiu's spirit is stronger than that of many famous human warriors?”

 “It will definitely be very powerful in the future.”

 “I heard meow!”

The flannel ball in front suddenly squatted down like an ordinary kitten, raised its head and meowed.

 “You're praising me for being awesome, right? Meow!”

 It looked very happy and beaming with joy.

 Its growing environment is not so much to hide.

“Yes, it's awesome.” Lan En smiled and waved to it, and the calico kitten jumped three feet high happily.

 “We're almost there.” Suddenly a sound of nose twitching came, and Geralt said in a low and hoarse voice.

Turning around, he saw that he was sniffing with his eyes closed and his head tilted up.

“I smelled the stink of that devil. Ugh, the smell of devil's excrement is still so disgusting no matter how many times I smell it.”

In fact, it is not only disgusting, demon excrement is also one of the raw materials for demon hunters to make alchemical bombs [Devil Dust]. This bomb has good toxicity.

 It is a stink bomb that can cause substantial damage.

 “Think on the bright side.” Lan En also sniffed the air, frowning while determining the direction of the smell. "This is the smell of alchemy raw materials, it's money."

“Oh, I didn't know you were so good at comforting people. I'm so touched.”

Geralt complained beside him.

“Then if you could learn more from me, wouldn't Yennefer have as many troubles as you?”

　Faced with Geralt's complaints, Lan silenced him with just one action.

Yes, the Wolf School is good at bad jokes and sarcasm, but the Bear School specializes in knowing punches.

Geralt made a stinky face and drew the silver sword from his back.

The two swords on his back are still the Valyrian steel swords that Lann brought him on the battlefield.

 For a witcher, it would be difficult for him to find a better sword.

The silver plating on the silver sword conceals the original pattern of Valyrian steel like black smoke and water ripples.

 Lan En's left hand has also grasped the handle and sheath of the Lake Lady Sword at his waist.

 “Flannel ball, follow me.”

 “I understand, meow!”

The two demon hunters made a series of gestures, and their bodies lit up with a golden glow of magic power.

  【Quen's Seal】.

Although I always felt that sending him and Geralt to deal with a croissant was a bit of a fuss.

 But caution is still the principle that demon hunters must abide by.

 “I don't smell other monsters.”

“Indeed, looking at the footprints, it is the only one here.”

 The two people nodded to each other after exchanging the information obtained by their respective demon hunter senses.
