Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 295 294. Entity

The next day, just like in Oriden, Lan woke up in the village elder's house.

But unlike Oriden where there are just water ghosts, there are evil beings in this village that can attract ghost dogs. Lan En didn't allow himself to perform [Memory Diving] as usual when he went to bed last night.

Early in the morning, before the sun was still high, Lan En had already packed up his equipment and walked onto the field that had been abandoned for two years.

This field is not far from the village. Even if you turn your head, you can still see the smoke coming from the village chimney, no more than seven or eight hundred meters away.

The presence of daytime demons at this distance could indeed scare the entire village into silence.

About half a kilometer away in the opposite direction of the village is the corner of the Brok Leon Forest.

"Okay, let me see"

Lan En's boots with cladding plates stepped on the dry and cracked field without any hesitation.

It made a 'clicking' sound like dry soil being crushed.

The field had been abandoned for two years. No one dared to cultivate it because of the monsters, but it did not become overgrown with weeds.

There is obviously no shortage of water here, and there is even a big forest not far away. But the fields seemed to be in constant drought.

"Supernatural power, no doubt about it."

Lan En murmured, first squatting down and pinching a handful of hardened soil, then stood up and looked around.

Beyond the ridges is lush weed ground.

He walked for a while and came to the corpse in the field.

This was the only victim, the widower. He died two years ago when the demon spirit first appeared, and until now no one dared to take the risk to collect his bones.

The body had been exposed in the wilderness for two years, so logically there should only be bones left.

But now, the dry and dehydrated muscles and skin clung to his frame, and the clothes and body tissues were in a state more like weathering than biodegradation.

If Lan En were to describe it, it would be as if it had just been dug out of a pyramid.

The dehydration technology of pharaoh mummies is not as good as this.

Lan En took out the dragon bone dagger with a calm expression and began to make "caracara" signs on the dry and crispy corpse.

"Myolysis occurred before death. He was forced to perform excessive exercise, which caused the muscle fibers to collapse. Did the demon spirit dance to death?"

The tip of the Valyrian steel seemed to lift off parchment, exposing the remains of muscle inside.

Lan En's biochemical knowledge easily recognized the traces of muscle dissolution.

Various signs made Lan En certain that the type of demon spirit entrenched here was the day demon spirit.

"Mentos, retrieve the monster information. I remember that the demon spirit will not be far away from my corpse during the day?"

Lan En half-crouched in front of the corpse, but his eyes began to search for traces on the ground around him.

"Sir, day demons are not trapped around their own corpses. According to the data, what keeps them lingering is the resentment left in the place of death. This is not necessarily a burial ground, but it must be a crime scene. Discovery scene.”

"Thanks for the correction."

Lan En expressed satisfaction with Mentos' correction in his mind. On the other side, he was trying hard to use his extraordinary senses to see if he could grasp the clues from two years ago.

Although this is a bit unrealistic, you have to try.

And just when Lan En lowered his head to search, the temperature in the field began to rise, like boiling a frog in warm water.

The hot air evaporating from the ground is entangled with the cold air in winter, causing the refraction of light to become distorted and blurred.

The vertical pupils of Lan En's cat's eyes began to narrow in the eyes that he originally lowered his head to search.

"bass!"

There was a sharp sound of a blade being unsheathed. That was the sound of Lan En suddenly pulling out the Sword of the Lake Lady from his waist, and then slashing horizontally towards the back!

The sound of rags flying in the air was heard.

The figure floating in mid-air was slashed across the chest by the Lake Lady's Sword in Lan En's hand, but because it was not in material form, it caused no effective damage at all.

So even though his reaction couldn't keep up with the speed of the knife, he still drifted away on his own.

After Lan En made a horizontal slash, he turned his body around and faced the 'floating object' head-on.

It was like a corpse that had been pulled out half-burnt in the fire, with tattered clothes and tattered body.

His hair seemed to be floating in water, his entire chin disappeared completely, and a long, ulcerated tongue hung out from his throat.

——Day demon spirit!

After it fully appeared, Lan En felt his mouth began to go dry in the windy winter.

"It's not that it can't be cut at all, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to hide just now."

If it were an ordinary demon hunter who saw the daytime demon for the first time and saw that his attack had no effect, he would probably start to panic and then lose his cool.

But Lan En's eyes narrowed slightly and he always remained calm.

Mentos combined with his own observation ability and quickly noticed details that were easily overlooked.

During the day, the demon spirit seems to be incompatible with the material world. On the edge of its silhouette, the color of the surrounding scenery will turn into a vague gray-white color.

It's like a conflict of painting styles.

But when Alondette slashed across the chest, although the demon spirit in the day seemed not to care at all, the gray and white color suddenly disappeared in the path of the long knife.

It has not been restored to its original state until now.

The [Evil-Destroying] attribute of the Sword of the Lady of the Lake is not given in vain. It is just that it cannot be encountered on the material level, so it is a bit weak now.

"Flat cuts can hurt it, but the efficiency is worrisome."

Lan En quickly clarified the situation.

The day demon spirit, which had already lost its mind, was screaming and rushing towards the demon hunter.

Stepping sideways, Lan En nimbly dodged and avoided the direct attack.

Along the way, he quickly corrected his direction after moving sideways, holding Arondette in both hands and raising it above his head.

[Wei Mingli·One word chop]!

There was a loud sound of "Bang!", which was the roar caused by the violent flow of air driven by the blade through swordsmanship skills.

But when it hit the demon spirit, it didn't feel like hitting an entity. Instead, it made a whistling sound like a weapon being wielded in the air.

The rotten female corpse floating in the air screamed with her throat missing her jaw, and her helpless rotten tongue flicked in the air.

A circle of sound waves that almost turned into a transparent sphere centered on it and spread to a radius of three meters.

Within three meters, sound waves of this intensity can even cause physical damage. Three meters away, ordinary people would feel dizzy even if they just heard it.

Demon hunters are not ordinary people. They are created to deal with monsters.

"[Aden's Seal]!"

Lan En stood outside the substantial sound wave, calmly sheathed his sword, and made a series of handprints on the ground with one hand.

Then runes exuding violet magic aura emerged from the ground and formed a circle.

[Arden's Seal], its effect is similar to a magic barrier or trap, which can cause enemies in the circle to receive a stagnation effect, and force demon enemies to materialize.

The scream of the demon spirit has come to an end, and the [Aden Seal] just happens to trap it inside.

What originally looked like a body with poor TV signal reception now appears as a 'high-definition' entity.

The Witcher, who had already lowered his center of gravity, was holding the scabbard with his left hand and the hilt with his right hand.

The cat's eyes were nailed on the demon spirit's body, and with a smooth sliding step on his feet, he maintained the ready posture of Iai Slash and got close to it.
