Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 368 367. Quick and Slow Knife

The winds in Yharnam are cold and damp. They travel through the winding and rugged streets, bringing out the smells hidden in the corners of the city.

And when the wind passed through the cemetery of Orton Chapel, these messy tombstones turned the passing wind into a strange whimpering sound.

Because the bridge to Church Town was blocked by what Henrik called a "monster", the old hunter could only take Lan En on a small path.

Last night they passed through the church town and the Orton chapel to the cemetery behind.

This path now leads directly to the cemetery.

When the witcher and hunter reached the edge of the cemetery and were about to enter.

The witcher was the first to twitch his nose, sensing something was wrong.

Then the Yanan hunter, who was particularly sensitive to blood, gritted his teeth the next moment.

"The smell of blood is too strong. Gascoigne has already started working on the spot?"

Lan En said in a guessing tone.

But an old hunter like Henryk can already tell directly what happened.

"Gascoigne is not a fool. He knows the severity of this hunting night. As long as his mind is normal, he will never stop hunting in one place and let the smell of blood accumulate."

In other words, Gascoigne, who has already done this kind of thing, is probably out of his mind.

Lan En's face darkened along with Henryk's.

"You mean he has turned into a beast?"

"I don't know." Henrik took a deep breath, "Let's go and take a look first. Even if you pull out the weapon, you can transform into a beast. As long as you have high-quality blood, you can bring it back even if it's not serious!"

Then there's nothing to worry about.

Amidst the pleasant sound of metal friction, Lan En drew out the Sword of the Lake Lady from his waist.

He didn't go to such trouble to help just to watch the tragedy!

The two opened the iron gate of the cemetery. Amidst the creaking sound, the tall man in the depths of the cemetery turned around.

He was chopping up the motionless corpse of a lycanthropic patient with an axe, like a butcher chopping meat and bones.

It didn't look like he was hunting a threat, but more like he wanted to let out more blood.

Gascoigne's bandaged face turned around. Although his eyes were covered, Lan and Henrik could feel that they were being watched.

"Monsters everywhere"

Gascoigne murmured, and violently pulled out the ax blade that was stuck in the broken ribs.

"Sooner or later you will also become monsters."

Lan En and Henryk looked at each other, and then shook their heads in a low voice at the same time.

Seeing a priest who was originally polite and gentle turned into a person who kept wagging his nose in search of blood, which made Lan En feel very bad.

"Just inject him with high-quality blood?"

Lan En's boots advanced slowly on the dirt road of the cemetery, and the long knife in his hand was unconsciously waving gorgeous sword patterns.

Henrik followed him, saw blade unfurled from the start.

The unfolded saw blade will reduce the attack speed and move flexibility, but the unfolded blade has no serrations and will not cause the ferocious saw-tooth tearing damage to Gascoigne.

"This is true according to previous experience, but you also know that tonight is different."

Too many things that went against common sense had happened tonight, but no matter what, they had to make Gascoigne obedient first!

"Bang!"

The huge trumpet musket sprayed out a large amount of shotgun!

Lan En and Henryk's originally slow but steady pace suddenly started.

The fighting styles of the Ursine witchers and the Yharnam hunters also differ from each other.

Lan En's hand seal had been made before, and after the chaos magic was poured into it, the yellow light of [Quen's Seal] flashed across his body.

Then the tall and strong man rushed straight towards the barrage.

Amidst the clanging sound, the long sword of the Elf standard was like a shining curtain of light, and the ammunition directed towards the vital parts exploded with sparks and bounced away.

The remaining shotguns pose no threat to [Quen] and heavy armor.

Lan En is like a chariot that drives directly towards the target!

Henrik has a faster and more efficient fighting style. This style has been passed down since the early days of the Yharnam Hunter profession.

During the battle, the hunters, who at best wore coats as armor, looked more like a group of bloodthirsty phantoms.

They are accustomed to using high-speed and flexible side dodges to avoid direct attacks.

But it was precisely because of side dodging that Lan, who was equipped with heavy armor, was one step ahead of Henryk and had a close encounter with Gascoigne.

Lan En's starting hand was to hit the ball with a weight on the handle of the knife from top to bottom.

Gascoigne's level of lycanthropy is not yet high, and he retains his complete hunting skills.

Therefore, when faced with this 'simple' offensive, he instinctively turned into an afterimage——

Hunters’ iconic step-side dodge!

The distance of the side dodge is not far, only about two steps.

Because hunters crave blood, they also crave a fast-paced attack to make the prey bleed as quickly and as early as possible.

The purpose of moving a short distance is to counterattack faster.

While the ax blade was moving sideways, it had already begun to lift!

The heavy ax blade hung down to the soil of the cemetery. The power that had begun to transform into a beast made this move not only lift up a large area of ​​soil and rocks, but also the stinky blood that had infected the soil.

But just when the corners of Gascoigne's mouth unconsciously opened because of the blood that was about to come.

"Pfft!"

The blade penetrated the flesh, and the sound of blood spraying suddenly exploded!

Gascoigne's sickly grin froze at the corners of his mouth.

Because the blood spurted out from his chest!

A large amount of blood was taken out of the body by the chaotic airflow of the air blade, and even formed a small rain of blood.

Under the rain of blood, Lan En's cat eyes looked at Gascoigne calmly.

It seemed like everything was planned.

After he arrived in Yharnam, Mentos began to formulate combat plans against local enemies.

There are not only monsters here, but also hunters.

The hunters' flexible dodging skills were of course taken into consideration by Mentos in the battle plan.

After deliberation and discussion with the subject, the response method it came up with was—quick and slow knife!

Use direct attacks to make the hunters who meet you for the first time use dodge.

But the process of hitting the weighted ball down can itself be regarded as the preparation process for slashing.

Therefore, after the weighted ball hits the ground, the subsequent blade slash will be extremely fast!

And relying on Lan En's on-site judgment, there is a high probability that this knife will be directly stuck in the moment when the hunters' center of gravity is unstable after they duck!

After dodging the first blow, the man reacted and saw the second blow. They will also eat hard because their center of gravity is unstable and unable to move!

You like to dodge, right?

Kill at first sight! If you dodge, you will die!

Lan En sneered and raised his feet without looking. The thick leather boot soles accurately stepped on the handle behind the ax blade.

"Bang!"

Gascoigne's ax blade suddenly became weak due to the cut, and Lan directly stepped the ax blade back into the dirt!

Henrik's belated moment also arrived at this moment.

He used his momentum to slash the unfolded meat saw knife!

Amidst the heartbreaking sound of bones shattering, the blade on the smooth side of the saw cut directly into Gascoigne's shoulder blade!

Originally, after a moment of confrontation achieved a suppressive effect, the battle was considered over.

Just wait for Henrik to inject Gascoigne with a blood collection bottle to see the effect.

But suddenly Henryk and Lan smelled a familiar stench at the same time!

Their eyes raised and widened at the same time.

The blood flowing from Gascoigne's wound was quickly becoming thicker and smellier!

"Ooooooo!"
