Chapter 1322 1294. [Water-Shaped Sword]
The bright moonlight illuminated by the two swords reflected on the filthy pool of blood.
It seems that even this crazy and crazy scene has added a touch of tranquility.
In the distance, the fire in Yanan was getting bigger and bigger, and the fire reflected half of the sky from bottom to top.
The ashes of the burned wooden building are now falling like warm snowflakes.
Ludwig seemed to have a premonition that he didn't have much time left.
After controlling the deformed beast claw to shake out a sword flower, it was confirmed that Lan En had also refocused his attention, and the moonlight sword in his hand suddenly made a light straight thrust.
Starting from a low position, stabbing straight towards Lan En's body.
At this time, the sword in Ludwig's hand fit his body shape. The sword was almost as wide as a normal person's height.
Out of a tentative mentality, Lan En did not dodge directly when faced with this sword.
Instead, he raised the moonlight sword in his hand, and while turning sideways, he blocked it diagonally.
"Buzz~"
The two sword blades shining with bright moonlight rubbed against each other, but they did not make a sharp and sharp sound like steel.
On the contrary, even the sound of collision had a hazy feeling.
A handful of magical blue light points suddenly exploded between the ice blue sword blade and the cyan blue sword blade.
The blades struck each other, but Ludwig, who now stood upright and was as tall as a Barbarian, almost synchronized with Lan and reacted to resist the impact.
The demon hunter's already solid footsteps suddenly sank a little further, and the sound of rock cracking was heard under his feet in the blood pool.
The arm that Ludwig used to stab was deflected by Lan En's block from the side, tilting sideways.
The demon hunter noticed something almost as soon as the swords struck each other. At the same time, his amber cat eyes raised his head and looked at his opponent.
Judging from his size and weight, there is no doubt that Ludwig, who has been twisted into this appearance by lycanthropy, has the upper hand.
But now, his strength performance is almost the same as Lan En.
The left eye, which had only a trace of human appearance, looked at the demon hunter calmly in the moonlight.
Lan En just narrowed his eyes slightly, and his expression became much more serious.
Even in a deformed posture, do you still want to fight the last battle as a human knight and with human swordsmanship?
Speechlessly, both of them understood what the other meant.
Next, only the sword can speak!
Using the inertia of being deflected laterally when he stabbed, Ludwig's clawed wrists rotated.
What followed was a blow back to the opponent!
The cyan sword blade left a dazzling afterimage in mid-air, accompanied by plankton-like light spots.
But even in the process of Ludwig's quick and smooth return and attack, he still couldn't make Lan En's eyes fluctuate.
Ludwig enjoys a heroic reputation in Yharnam, and people praise him for his noble conduct and superb swordsmanship.
However, after all, this is only limited to the praise of 'One Yanan'.
Lan En’s swordsmanship has spanned several worlds!
“Dang!”
His eyes remained motionless, so calm that he seemed to be doing nothing. But Lan En's hand had already controlled the sword in his hand, and it was positioned at a subtle angle at a subtle time.
[Water-Shaped Sword·Dengli]!
Different from the collision between steel, dazzling sparks will erupt in a circle under the unique swordsmanship skills.
Between the two moonlight swords of different sizes, a circle of dazzling light of ice blue and cyan blue burst out during this collision!
Born out of [Ash Mingryu], the swordsmanship is like the water of Ashe Ming, but Lan En's own skills have already broken away from the stereotypes and surpassed the barriers.
This swordsmanship was even praised by Ulmo, [Lord of the Waters] in the world of Arda.
Not only is it no longer appropriate to use the title "Ash Ming-ryu" again, but it even disrespects Ashina Isshin, who taught him swordsmanship, and himself.
So Lan En temporarily called his swordsmanship [Water-Shaped Sword].
For example, [Carp Climbing] is originally a relatively basic technique in [Ash Mingryu], which allows the swordsman to bounce back the enemy's blade beautifully like a carp jumping out of the water.
And through this process, one's own power penetrates into the movement of the enemy's body, accumulating like this until the last moment, like sand being continuously added to the operation of a machine, eventually causing the enemy's posture to collapse.
This skill was originally only a swordsmanship that could fully display its unique characteristics when mortals clashed with real steel blades.
But now, even if they are two extraordinary and magical weapons, Lan En can easily control the interaction between them to achieve the effect he wants.
With a 'crash', Ludwig straightened up and stepped on several horse legs on the ground. At this time, he involuntarily took a few steps back before barely standing still.
An enemy who was about the same height as a Barbarian Jaw Dragon and wielded a huge long sword that was as wide as a man's height was actually bounced back by Lan En after slashing down!
Ludwig's left eye could not help but widen slightly even in the pain and exhaustion of animal transformation!
He is a master of swordsmanship, but precisely because he is a master, he can feel the disharmony in his body at this moment. The flesh and bones, which were already distorted by the lycanthropy disease, now seemed to have been mixed with sand during exercise, causing something subtle to go wrong.
That’s not all!
Use strong skills to insert into the enemy's attack rhythm and block Ludwig's slashing Lan En.
At this time, he also turned back the moonlight sword that was originally blocking his head and put it to his side.
And a burst of blood burst out from under his feet, and the demon hunter's body disappeared like the wind mixed in the blood.
[Acceleration Technique]!
There was a sound of ‘rubbing’ and he was approaching quickly!
And the big sword that shone with ice blue light was slashing out without mercy at this time!
【Water-Shaped Sword·Big Cut】!
First, the ice blue sword blade struck the blade that Ludwig quickly blocked in front of him with a 'buzz' echo.
That huge and violent power almost seemed out of proportion to the bright and quiet sword blade!
Ludwig's palm against the back of his sword blade and his supporting elbow all caused a 'bang' in the air during this violent and sudden impact, shaking the air. Muffled sound.
There are also white air waves.
The glorious Yharnam swordsman thought that although this sword was powerful, it was over.
It can be followed by "呲呲呲"!
The violent air pressure brought up violent air currents. These invisible blades driven by the blade through the skill of [Air Flow Blade] were like waterfalls rushing down, impacting Ludwig's somewhat lax defense just now. Sword face.
The amount of air brought up by this sword was so huge, and the airflow blade was so continuous, that on the surface of the blue moonlight sword, there were light spots like fluorescent creatures. One after another they exploded due to the impact.
The originally gentle and calm moonlight now became a little dazzling due to the concentration of light spots!
Ludwig's beast-like claws were now shrouded in light.
Lan maintained control of the subsequent airflow and wanted to continue to suppress Ludwig.
But the frantic air current blew his hair, which was like molten silver, and his amber cat eyes suddenly shrank in the dance of the hair!
Because Ludwig, who was originally suppressed by the subsequent airflow blade of [Great Cutoff], suddenly hit it hard at this time.
He briefly pushed away the continuous airflow blade, then held the moonlight sword upside down and pointed at the ground, but gave up his entire chest and abdomen as if it didn't matter!
Yes, he will indeed do that. Because this was his last battle as a member of the church and as a glorious swordsman.
Although both of them have a moonlight sword in their hands, regardless of the differences between the two swords, their control over the swords is not at the same level.
Before this, Lan En had only used his moonlight sword during weapon maintenance.
In Ludwig's previous emotion, this sword should have been in his hand even at the beginning of his hunter career, and he has been using it.
In terms of mastering the power of the moonlight sword in his opponent's hands, Lan En was far behind him.
What is now presented to the demon hunter is this gap in control.
The continuous airflow blades condensed out of thin air and cut into Ludwig's chest and abdomen, turning it into a piece of minced meat almost instantly.
The stinky blood belonging to the Yharnam beasts flowed out thickly.
But there was only solemnity on Ludwig's face, which had been distorted by skull deformation.
He held the moonlight sword upside down, with the tip of the sword pointing to the ground. The crystal-like sword body of the sword looked like an upside-down Christmas snow globe.
Deep within the sword body, those light spots like starlight dust fell towards the tip of the sword.
The large light spots that exploded from the sword due to resisting the airflow blade also converged towards the tip of the sword pointing to the ground.
The gathered blue light gradually overflowed the sword body! The light falls down like water!
“Crack!”
“Drink!”
Finally, Ludwig tried his best to shout in a human voice and thrust the sword into the ground!
Things only happen in an instant.
Taking the place where Ludwig inserted his sword into the ground as the starting point, the blue moonlight formed a circle with a radius of ten meters and burst out from under the ground!
“Hoo!”
The energy of the moonlight spurted upward, and the blood in the blood pool within the range first began to flow upward as if it was driven by the wind.
Then it was evaporated into nothingness, and the rocky ground was even exposed in the circle! It wasn't until the light faded that the blood in the blood pool began to flow again.
If the person was standing in this range just now
But as early as Ludwig gave up resisting the subsequent airflow blade of [Great Cutoff], Lan En had already cautiously retreated.
So this sudden range attack did not hit Lan En at all.
It just made him stop controlling the subsequent airflow blade of [Big Cut].
But his attack was interrupted, and Ludwig, who was also a master of swordsmanship, was about to start his attack again.
The tight switching of attack and defense rhythms is the same basic skill in sword fighting.
Just now, Lan En didn't know what kind of power Ludwig would use, so he dodged and retreated to open a huge distance.
But after the big sword was inserted into the ground, Ludwig was now so far away from him. While the tip of the sword was still inserted into the ground, Ludwig changed his grip to an overhand grip.
Looking at the posture, it looks like he is about to strike with a dragging sword.
At such a long distance, that is
Lan En, who had just stopped and stood firm in the distance, reacted almost instantly, and immediately turned to the side again without thinking. Sidestep!
