Chapter 820 802. Cooperation
At the entrance of the cave, the two demon hunters confirmed the direction of the wind, and their scent could not reach the horned demon's nose.
Then Lan En took a sip of [Enhanced Cat Eyes] for himself and looked inside.
"This culvert is not deep, at most seventeen or eight meters. The goat-horned demon is lying in the deepest open space."
"I understand."
Geralt began to adjust his breathing and the tightness of his grip on the hilt of the sword.
According to Lan En's observation of the terrain, although the culvert is uneven, there are gravel and wet puddles.
But the depth of seventeen or eight meters can still be crossed within three seconds given the speed of the demon hunter's surprise attack.
“This guy is really strong, no wonder Berengar couldn’t beat it back then.”
Lan said as he looked at the horned devil lying down in the puddle and resting inside. .
The demon's feces was casually excreted in a corner of the cave, and the smell was mixed with its own body odor.
Then he lay down in the dirty cave water, his fur soaked by the water into tangled strands.
And this brings out the longer-lasting flavor accumulated in the deeper layers of the fur.
This is the common working scene for witchers.
The flannel ball covered his little nose.
If it hadn't been a predator from the Miasma Valley in the New World, then 80% of them would have vomited right now.
It is rare for magical creatures to integrate into the natural ecosystem. After all, the magic of chaos itself can distort life.
So the smell of magical creatures is weirder and indescribable than that of natural creatures.
“Up!”
Lan En roared, and then the whole person disappeared like smoke.
Only the wind pulled by his large body's extremely fast movement was left, blowing Geralt's ponytail.
After using the [Old Hunter Leg Bone] multiple times and with high intensity to activate the [Acceleration Technique], Lan En has almost learned this ancient technique of the Yharnam hunters.
Now that he is using it, although the effect is not as good as the [Acceleration Technique] activated by the [Old Hunter Leg Bone].
But it can be activated without spilling blood on the leg bone.
Achieving the same effect as when using leg bones is just a matter of proficiency and time.
Clear silver light flashed out from Lan En's waist and bloomed in the dim cave.
As Lan En moved forward, this silver light left a trace of light in mid-air.
On the rough and slippery road, Geralt's armor-piercing charge took about three seconds to cross a distance of nearly 20 meters.
But Lan En only takes a moment!
“Oops!”
There was a sound of a sharp blade cutting into it.
At the same time, the horned demon's unique roar of pain erupted.
"Moo!!!"
A stinking rain of blood splashed out in large quantities. This was the rapid airflow blade wrapped around the blade after the horned demon was cut open by the physical blade. Brought out the blood around the wound.
Battles are always filled with all kinds of surprises.
Originally, Lan En's knife was aimed at the neck where the battle ended, but the lying demon moved his body slightly, and the knife hit his shoulder.
The extremely sharp Sword of the Lake Lady cuts from the outside of the shoulder and cuts all the way into the body.
The skin and muscles of the shoulder, and then the bones and blood vessels in the flesh and blood.
Until the end, because the blade went too deep, the horned devil's muscles tightened to the point where the blade could no longer go deeper, Lan Encai slightly relaxed his control on the blade, causing the blade that was originally cutting straight to tilt under the resistance.
Then let your own momentum bring it out.
After Lan En quickly passed by the horned demon, his boots stepped on the remains of the guy's usual food.
These nearly chewed skeletons look like water ghosts.
The remaining flesh on the skeleton and the spilled blood became a breeding ground for bacteria in this dark and humid cave. The bacteria secrete mucus as they multiply, turning the mess into a slimy, disgusting mess.
After stepping on it, his feet suddenly slipped, making him unable to stop. Although he did not fall, he was still sent to the edge of the culvert by the momentum.
But Lan En didn't feel any sense of danger because of the slippery ground beneath his feet.
Because a burst of orange fire has illuminated the entire culvert.
Geralt charged forward with his sword and raised his left hand, aiming at the horned demon.
Before the handprint of his left hand, a small orange Igni rune circle had been generated.
And from that magic circle, there is a steady stream of hot sparks and heat flowing out like a flamethrower.
This is a variation of [Igni Sign], and it is also the knowledge inherited by the Wolf School from the period of the Demon Hunter Order.
The sparks and heat flow generated by the chaos magic directly hit the face of the horned demon under Geralt's control.
The left side of its sheep face is quickly turning black.
The burning pain even temporarily overwhelmed the knife wound left by Lan En.
As Geralt quickly approached, the sparks and heat ejected from the seal on his hand further reduced the ineffective escape.
The magic power he sprays is in a cone shape, and the closer it gets, the more concentrated it will be on the Horned Demon.
The left eye on the sheep-horned demon's face has been roasted dry by Geralt's seal.
“MOO!!!”
It howled miserably, and in pain, its strong claw muscles tightened, and it was about to swing out!
“Pfft!”
But Geralt had no intention of giving it a chance to react.
The silver sword with Valyrian steel as the core is pointed upward in Geralt's right hand.
As the magic power in his body was exhausted, he had already rushed to the side of the Horned Demon under the suppression of the variant [Igni Seal].
On the side where Lan En cut off most of his shoulder, the Horned Demon couldn't even raise his hand.
Geralt had noticed this a long time ago, so he thrust his silver sword at the abandoned side.
From the left side of the horned devil's ribs, insert it diagonally upward towards the heart!
It’s just that because of the exhaustion of magic power, the demon hunter has entered the low period of magic power, and even Geralt fell into a feeling of exhaustion.
The sword did not completely pierce the strong muscles of the Horned Demon. Instead, it was stuck by the muscles and ribs.
And Geralt didn't seem to be bothered by the stabbing that didn't kill him in one hit.
“Flannel ball!”
At this time, Lan En, who had just hit the culvert wall and stopped, shouted without looking back.
“Meow!”
Following Geralt, there was also an Elu cat who rushed in!
Its agile body is petite and flexible.
When Geralt was exhausted from the low period of his magic power, he did not stab the long sword directly into the heart of the horned devil.
Using all four limbs, the flannel ball quickly jumped up from behind Geralt, using his body as a bridge!
Then his two small paws stepped on the weighted ball at the end of the hilt of the silver sword and kicked hard.
"Pfft!"
"Moo~"
The kitten jumped up in the air, and the silver sword pierced directly from the horned devil's chest to the back back.
Afterwards, Geralt took two steps back, and the kitten landed lightly on the ground. After taking two steps from the four-legged state, it returned to the bipedal state.
The strong and sturdy horned demon fell to the ground, causing a splash of sewage into the puddles in the culvert.
