Astartes of the Bear School Chapter 927

Chapter 927 909. Secret of Crystallization

 The blood-red figure behind Lan En made no sound.

 There was no heartbeat, no breathing, not even steps.

 It is like a humanoid body of air moving.

 In the absence of any movement, even with the keen senses of a demon hunter, it stands to reason that he should not be able to feel anything.

 However, as the blood-red figure approached step by step, Lan En was squatting on the ground checking the clues on the body.

The sharp dagger in Blood Shadow's left hand has been slowly raised, and he is about to stab it downwards into the demon hunter's neck.

The witcher, who was still using his fingers to check the knife marks on the corpse in front of him, suddenly felt like a frightened feline.

The body that had been crouching just now suddenly rushed forward, then put his palms on the ground and performed an extremely smooth low somersault. The positional relationship between the demon hunter and the blood shadow had become face to face.

The dagger in the blood shadow's hand was pierced into the air, leaving only a slight "crack" sound in the air.

The witcher's movements look like some kind of big cat, but in fact they are much sharper and faster than tigers.

 Mentos, which had always turned on its biological activity monitoring function, put a bright red warning mark on Lan En's retina almost at the same time.

 “Soul body?”

 At the same time, he began to actively adjust his breathing and mentality, calming down the life activities that had just been suddenly brought up by the [Song Gland].

And in this world, it seems that thanks to the specialness of their souls, the soul body not only does not need protection, but can also be used directly for combat?

In the Magical Middle Ages, some mages were able to travel in a soul state, but most of them would add a set of protective measures to their soul bodies.

Lan En stood up slowly while staring at the blood shadow. While questioning in a low voice.

 The next moment, he saw the silent attacker behind him.

 In the blink of an eye, the attacker and the attacked saw each other's eyes.

The [Song Gland] seems to be very sensitive to the power of these gods and ghosts, so it can automatically adjust its physiological state in times of crisis and send a warning to the body without Lan En's other senses noticing any abnormalities.

 She is just here to kill people.

 “Buzz~” A soft chirping sound sounded.

The other party didn't answer, but Lan En already had his own guess in his mind.

 The life and soul in this world are different from those in other worlds.

Lan En did not speak at first. He just looked up and down at the blood shadow that almost succeeded in the sneak attack just now.

The hairs all over his body stood up. Driven by instinct, Lan En made standard evasive actions without even thinking about it.

 The female blood shadow did not talk to Lan En, but walked cautiously and kept an appropriate distance.

The woman like the blood shadow obviously didn't expect such a reaction from the witcher, but not only did the blood shadow not expect it, Lan En himself was a little confused.

He didn't feel any abnormality at all just now, but the [Song Gland] implanted in the right half of his brain seemed to be out of control just now!

 Hormonal secretion and biological activities that were originally stable suddenly surged!

The female shadow did not answer, which meant that there was no need to say anything between enemies.

As for Lan En himself, even before the biological brain responded, he felt a sudden and unknown sense of crisis.

 A brilliant blue light lit up on the crystal ball head of the staff in her hand.

This blue light is not enough to surprise Lan En, after all, the magic in this world seems to be of this color.

 What really surprised Lan was.

 “Dingling bell~”

A sound of crystals clashing slightly emitted from the magical blue light of the female blood shadow.

This is not ordinary, bad street magic, this is crystal magic!

　　【Crystallized Daughter】Clinshid.

 Lan En immediately locked the identity of the female shadow in front of him in his mind.

 Crystal magic is an out-and-out advanced magic system.

In this world where the basic magic is soul magic, there once was a famous great mage in the mythical age, [Big Hat] Logan.

 It is rumored that he got a glimpse of the true meaning of magic through certain channels. Later, he kept his own knowledge, which is the most pure and advanced crystal magic.

 The crystallized old man Lan En had seen before was originally a pair of twins. They claimed to be Logan's academic successors, one stayed at Lothric's Great Library and the other was sent to assist the Farlan Undead Army.

　　【Crystal Daughter】Clinsid is an apprentice who studied magic with the old crystallizer of the Big Library in Lothric City and achieved great success.

She is also the fire girl of Prince Lothric. Priest Emma introduced this person to Lan En. After all, her position and relationship are so crucial.

Of course, there are countless magicians who want to increase their worth by establishing relationships with mythical figures like [Big Hat] Logan.

 But the apparent characteristics of power cannot be faked. Even if the magic of the crystallized elders is not pure enough and not close to the source, it still has the characteristics of crystallization, which is enough to be called precious.

 In the blink of an eye, a series of clues and pictures flashed through Lan En's mind.

Clincid stopped him in front of him, and the great library was distributed by the king to the sages. The princes accepted the teachings of the original sages and became a scaleless white dragon. The last breath of the king was full of crystals.

“Is it you, the sages, who planned to disrupt the order of the fire-passing ceremony?”

 Lan En suddenly spoke.

The tone was more of confirmation than inquiry. "The old crystallizer in the big library spread the knowledge of [crystallization] to the sages. And when the prince refused the fire-passing ceremony and the king was helpless and confused, you asked the king to find it in the big library. ' got that knowledge.”

"Furthermore, Oceroes got the inspiration for the dragon transformation experiment, but he also went crazy. I remember [Big Hat] Logan went crazy because he explored magic too far, right?"

“Although I still don't understand why the [crystallized] knowledge is associated with the white dragon, there is no doubt that even the discoverer, Logan himself, can't bear that knowledge!”

 Lan En's words are clearly enunciated, but his words are fast and dense, which is very impactful. Especially when revealing secrets like this.

The crystallized daughter holding the staff stiffened. She obviously didn't know how much information Lan En had obtained and how many things he had found. Only in this way can these information be connected together to form a logical chain.

 But as far as the conclusion is concerned, this is undoubtedly correct!

 But she immediately released the crystallized magic she had prepared with a more decisive attitude.

It is indeed different from ordinary magic. These blue-light soul arrows are covered with crystal clusters and are densely packed.

 But these magics can no longer hit anyone.

 “Oops!”

With the [Acceleration Spell] activated, Lan En keenly captured the moment when the other party froze because the secret was revealed.

Although Lan En has never been exposed to it, and he doesn't quite understand the power of the crystallized magic, one by one passes through the demon hunter's side.

 But they couldn't touch him.

No matter how powerful these magics are, they can't hit him anyway.

With Mentos' calculation power, Lann can predict the landing point of these crystal beams even earlier than Crynhild himself who released the magic.

And his movement efficiency obviously exceeded the expectations of the crystallized daughter in front of him.

With just a flash of smoke, Lan En's tall figure had already passed through the curtain of crystal magic and arrived in front of Crimhid.

At the same time, the Sword of the Lake Girl in his hand also swung past him with this rapid momentum!

The blade tore through the air, letting out a sharp scream.

However, Clinhide was quite steady. In front of this knife that could basically kill her immediately, she raised her left hand holding the dagger slightly.

And it seemed that he wanted to use the dagger in his hand to parry the long knife that Lan En had slashed at him.

 It is not normal for a mage to dare to use such a small knife to directly block a long knife that has already reached full inertia.

 Abnormality means danger.

 However, Lan En also recognized this hand gesture as early as the moment the opponent started to raise his hand.

He once fought against a Lothric knight captain sent by the prince on the high wall of Lothric, and on that occasion, the opponent showed a superb skill with his shield.

 Use a precise block to break the posture of the enemy who has already made a move.

The power of the enemy's attack is accurately distorted, turning it into an obstacle to controlling one's own body.

Although the mage in front of him was using a dagger, Lan En's swordsmanship skills still allowed him to see through the differences in weapons and see through the core idea of ​​the move.

 The moves that have been seen through cannot be called a 'threat'.

 With a "swish" sound, the sharp blade cut through the air.

The long knife with a graceful arc was originally rounded, but now it changed direction unexpectedly under Lan En's dexterous hand muscles.

 The blade is as lively and unpredictable as a carp jumping out of the water.

The blade that was cutting from the side turned around and turned into an upward thrust at high speed.

The arm that Clancyd held and swung out with the dagger left her body with the flash of clear sword light.

Clinhilde obviously didn't expect Lan En to be so fast, after all, his body looked very heavy.

 But in fact, Lan En's body is not only thick, but also agile and agile.

 After Clinhide's arm was cut off, she was stunned for a moment, and then the staff in her other hand quickly emitted blue light again.

This looks like it should be some kind of magic that can be activated quickly.

 But Lan En was not ready to give her a chance.

The dagger fell from the broken hand in the air, and while it was still spinning, Lan En caught it with his free hand without looking back.

Then he stabbed him sideways neatly.

 “Puff!”

The tip of the dagger pierced one side of Crynhild's slender neck and emerged from the other side.

The blood-red soul body seemed to be bleeding, and a handful of water-like souls splashed out from the breach in the direction of the stabbing force.

 The blue light on the opposing staff suddenly disappeared.

Lan En's face was calm. He had never dealt with a soul body, so he decided to make his method safer.

With a "stab" sound, the dagger stabbed into the neck was pulled out sideways by the witcher.

If the scene was a body, then after this moment, the cervical vertebrae should already be visible from the front.
