Chapter 1345 1317. Sickle
“It is indeed a scythe!”
When the blade in the hand of the [First Hunter] slit the air just in front of Lan En’s eyeball, This was the witcher's first reaction.
At that time, Lan En saw the fatal wounds on the orphans of Kos and decided that they could not be left behind by ordinary weapons.
The slender and curved blade was originally a tool used to harvest crops, but it also made great achievements in harvesting lives.
The old hunter, or rather the oldest hunter in Yharnan, lowered his head.
The brim of the top hat cast a shadow, making it difficult to see his slightly drooped old face.
The large trench coat with tattered edges on the back swayed like a demonic shadow with teeth and claws.
Old and skinny. But with a coldness and danger that is the same as the sickle in his hand.
This sense of danger made this old man, who was missing one leg and almost staggering when walking, make his originally inconspicuous figure even more eye-catching!
The condensed and crisp murderous aura on his body even gave Lan En the illusion that his body was burning quietly.
Above the quiet and beautiful sea of flowers, a huge and low-hanging full moon emits light that is almost like the gentle sun.
The figures of the old hunter and the demon hunter turned into a wisp of smoke almost at the same time, and then reappeared in human form after an instant.
The result was that the relative position of the two people almost did not change, but they suddenly moved a certain distance in the direction where Lan En was originally.
Lan En retreated, while Geman attacked.
The old but still cold scythe, the inward curved blade brought a sharp and sharp wind.
Even if they are tilted upwards, the white flowers on the ground are entangled with scattered petals by the wind, and are carried by the blade to fly.
Under the moonlight, it is quiet and beautiful.
Flying along with the petals, there were also a few strands of hair that were like molten silver and shone in the moonlight.
The witcher carefully stepped on the uneven sea of flowers and moved his steps.
At the same time, his fingers touched the smooth cut hair on the side of his neck.
“You want to cut my head off with the first blow?”
Even though the blade passed diagonally upward from the side of my neck against my skin, and then brushed my eyelashes, The entire head was almost cut in half diagonally in an instant.
But Lan En spoke unhurriedly, even with a comfortable smile.
"A little too impatient, old guy."
The moment the sharp blade rubbed against his skin, Lan En suddenly seemed to have entered his comfort zone.
On the contrary, he began to feel peaceful and relaxed.
Some people are naturally immersed in the art of swords.
But Geman is like the original template for the image of the Yharnam hunter.
He is speechless and unable to speak during the hunt. He only thinks about using his skills and blades to make the target's blood spray out from the skin and veins.
The more the merrier!
The silent Geman held the scythe and used his single leg and wooden prosthesis to move closer to Lan En.
If it hadn't been for the almost no warning [Acceleration Technique] just now, and the sudden burst of speed to dodge and approach, maybe someone would have seen him as a disabled old man with weak legs and feet.
When Lan En and Maria use [Acceleration], there will be spiral wind winding around their legs, which is considered a technical feature.
But Geman, the founder of [Acceleration Technique], has no trace at all on his body.
It was as if this swift movement, like blue smoke, was as common to him as the usual Yharnam hunters' dodges.
German, who was silent, approached Lan En at a certain distance with a deep and shallow kick, and then carried the crescent moon-like sickle behind his back.
And the legs are slightly bent, like compressed springs.
The sickle is a unique and rare weapon type.
Due to its limited shape, the weapon usually has to be carried behind its back to perform a charged slam attack by just pulling back with both hands and twisting the waist.
One hand is holding the end of the handle on the shoulder, and the other hand is diagonally below the waist, holding the handle near the head of the knife.
There is no doubt that this is the posture of the sickle preparing for a powerful attack!
“Hu~”
The crescent moon-like blade brought up a fierce wind!
The sickle looks slender and slender, but due to the abnormal center of gravity of the weapon, it is actually a heavy weapon when used, similar to the logic of a two-handed battle ax and a two-handed war hammer.
If you want to attack continuously with this kind of weapon, it is definitely faster to swing it in a circle than to overcome the inertia and close the knife after one strike, and then strike again!
Lan En's beautiful eyes reflecting the moonlight narrowed slightly.
Sure enough!
The old hunter had no expression on his face, but one second he was still charging up a powerful attack from a distance, and the next second he was already in front of Lan En very quickly!
The sound of the wind couldn't even keep up with the flying petals following his speed! The first blow of the slender sickle was sudden and swift, swiping diagonally downward from Geman's right shoulder to his left waist.
The blade emitting cold light left an almost dazzling mark in mid-air!
That is the 'full moon' left behind by a perfect slash.
But the next moment!
“Dang!!!”
Fierce sparks spread out in a circle the next moment after the 'full moon' appeared!
The intense brightness is really dazzling now!
If the first cut can make a perfect mark, that means no one was hit at all!
After learning the [Acceleration Technique], as well as many battles and cooperation with the Yharnam hunters, the clean and neat dodging skills learned by the demon hunters can be said to be authentic at this time.
He just moved sideways simultaneously in an instant, leaving himself out of the attack range of the sickle's diagonal slash.
But the sickle was guided by Geman's hand like an arm, and when he swung it out smoothly for the second circle and slashed, he, who had already left the attack range, dodged again and crashed into it!
Those eyes faced the sword directly, but they only felt happy!
The clear silver light around her waist flashed away.
【Water-Shaped Sword·Dengli】!
Insert the enemy's moves into the gap, and then flick the blade away like a carp jumping out of the water!
The first time you dodge is to be 100% safe and directly leave the enemy's attack range.
The second time he dodged and rushed in was for a sure attack! Now that the moves have been used, the rhythm and direction of the attack cannot be changed even if they want to.
Then the successful flick of the knife is inevitable!
Sure enough, after the long echoing "dang" sound, the cold and dancing sickle like a crescent moon seemed to suddenly get stuck in operation!
While the trajectory of the swing was originally smooth and smooth, Geman himself leaned back almost uncontrollably!
In the shadow of the brim of the top hat, even with the indifference of a Yharnam hunter, a look of astonishment could not help but flash in his eyes.
This is a technique that Geman has never seen before.
Just the collision of weapons can disrupt the movement of his body. It is like running water that penetrates all the way!
But it’s not over yet.
The transition between movement and stillness between the two reached an extremely intense state almost in an instant.
An ordinary [Wei Mingren] swordsman would have to use [Climbing Carp] at least several times before he could break the enemy's posture.
But Lan En is much simpler.
【Alder's Seal】!
After successfully casting [Climbing the Carp], Lan En's left hand immediately left Arondette's knife handle and aimed at the staggering old hunter.
The left hand has already made a hand seal. Before the hand seal, a rune composed of chaotic magic emits a cold white glow!
"Bang!"
The impact of the mental transmission composed of chaotic magic power was deliberately neither too concentrated nor too divergent under Lan En's control.
And it was like a punch that rushed out, with enough impact to shake the body.
The amber cat's eyes scanned Geman's body instantly, and the Mentos in the brain simultaneously combined with the subject's sword fighting experience, and in the blink of an eye, completed the transformation of Geman's body at this moment. Force analysis.
At this point, the flaw that was forcibly created has been completely caught!
Once [Climbing Carp] flicked the blade, interrupting Geman's rhythm of movement.
Once [Alder's Seal] accurately impacted the old man's shoulder socket, the impact was just right so that he did not fly backwards. Instead, his muscles all over his body lost control in an instant, and he involuntarily knelt down!
At this point, even Geman has reacted.
Is he being shot? !
Yanan’s [Number One Hunter] was [gunned]!
Geman is undoubtedly a man with extraordinary talents in fighting skills.
The techniques with the same effect as the [Block] in the Fire World and [Ash Mingryu]'s posture collapse were completely developed by him.
That’s why it was most difficult for him to believe that one day he would be executed as a gun rebel.
But the facts are the facts.
Lan En's eyes narrowed, and then the Lake Lady's Sword, which had deflected the sickle blade just a moment ago, aimed at Geman with a pleasant sound of the blade shaking. head!
Stab forward!
But even though all the muscles in his body were instantly knocked out of control, Geman still looked at the blade that was stabbing at his head indifferently.
He reluctantly tilted his head back in the blink of an eye, almost as if he was about to fall down.
What is the difference between falling down in a fierce sword fight and dying? What's the difference between being stabbed directly in the head?
But in Geman’s hands, this action can make a difference!
The extremely sharp divine weapon seemed to cut through the air. The tip of the knife that was originally aimed at the head now went straight into the collarbone at the base of Geman's neck.
The skin, muscles, and bones were cut apart along the way.
German, who fell backwards, was indeed unable to fight back.
But of course the blade of a knife is extremely sharp, but what about the back of the knife?
There was an unusual feeling in Lan En’s hand holding the knife!
In this brief moment when he couldn't control his body, he fell to the sky and there was no hope of help.
But if you use the knife that stabs your body, things will be different immediately!
When Lan En stabbed, the blade was downward and steady.
German used the blade he thrust in and Lan En's solid arm strength.
The weight of his body as he fell backwards rested on the back of the blade that was thrust in!
Lan En's knife prevented him from falling!
