Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 522 523. Secret Footwork

This time there was no need to argue with Lan En, Fu Bai automatically found a hotel.

She quickly packed away the small baggage she was carrying, and then helped Lan En tidy up the straw bed covered with sheets.

She looks like the lively and capable little girl she was before.

But Lan En was leaning at the door of the room, watching Fu Bai busy inside, and suddenly said something.

"Are you still thinking about the boy you saw on the road?"

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Fu Bai, who was immersed in his work in the room, suddenly lost his smooth and skillful movements.

After she was stiff for a while, she turned her face to Lan En, who was leaning against the door.

"If I told you 'no', would you be able to see through it immediately?"

The little girl's face looked a little depressed.

Lan En stood up straight from the door frame, walked into the room, and looked at Fu Bai with an expression that said, "You should understand even if I don't speak."

"Okay, okay." Fubai covered his face helplessly and said in a muffled voice.

"That kid does make me care a little. Because he reminds me of the time when I first wandered to Kefalonia."

"Tired and hungry, my parents were taken to his coral palace by Poseidon. I didn't know which one would come to me first, the next meal or death, until Cassandra took me home begging on the street, like feeding me Feed me like a kitten.”

The little girl's voice revealed memories and pain. She had already suffered a lot in her short life.

"So." After a brief silence, Lan En spoke first. "What are you going to do? Regarding that boy, and although we haven't seen it, there must be a large number of children in the city of Athens who are in the same situation as him?"

"What?" Fu Bai raised his face from his palms and looked at Lan En in shock.

"How? No, I can't do anything. I'm just a little hick girl from Kefalonia."

"Besides, you came to Athens to do something, right? I can't give you any extra trouble."

Fu Bai originally wanted to say 'causing trouble'.

But before she could finish speaking, Lan En interrupted her with emotionless remarks.

"Pull it down, where are you talking about the hammer? You said 'can't do it' and 'don't want to do it', but you must have rushed up when you saw it. I have already seen how strong your mobility is."

"Wait!" Fubo seemed to hear something from Lan En's tone. Her downcast expression showed confusion at first, then surprise and joy. "You mean you can help me?!"

"Don't even think about it." Lan En ruthlessly rejected Fu Bai's tearful eyes. "Tomorrow I will start teaching you [stealth footwork] and basic punches and kicks. You have to learn the skills to solve the troubles you have caused for yourself."

"Woohoo!" the little girl cheered immediately.

Kassandra was taken in by Marcos, so when she saw the wandering Phoebe, she took in the little girl.

Phoebe was taken in by Cassandra, so when she saw children in Athens who were still struggling to survive, she also wanted to help others.

This is a natural and beautiful kindness.

On the other hand, Lan also thought of a great detective who was famous in his hometown world and his Baker Street Orphan Investigation Team.

If the orphans wandering in the market could be gathered together, they would become a group of high-quality intelligence collectors.

Maybe they can help their investigation with regard to the 'religion' and the 'blood worshipers'.

"This place is very suitable for training, but...why do I feel like I'm doing Cat Pie?"

Lan En stood in the fisherman's area of ​​Athens and muttered to himself. The second half of the sentence was lowered by his voice, so Fubo was looking at him with a puzzled look.

The Fisherman's Quarter is located in the city of Athens near the Port of Piraeus. There is a large shoal formed by the overflow of sea water. People living here can catch fish as a supplement to their lives, hence the name.

But because Athens is a large inhabited city, and because of the war, the consul Pericles also gathered farmers and hunters outside Athens into the city to protect them from being ravaged by the Spartans.

Therefore, the population in the city has exploded to more than 200,000, close to 300,000!

The huge population and the domestic waste produced have made this already unclean water area even dirtier and smellier.

Therefore, residents living here can only install wooden boards and stone slabs on the water to isolate themselves from the smelly water in the shallows. But as a result, the already spacious building became even more crowded.

Some two houses even share a wall, and the narrowest streets can only allow two people to pass side by side at the same time.

In the world of magic, demon hunters of the Cat School love this urban environment for their apprenticeship training.

They are also the only school of witchers that train their apprentices in an urban environment.

On the side, Fu Bai was tying his sandal laces again and adjusting his small leather wristband with a look full of anticipation.

"The roofs here include tile roofs, clay roofs, stone roofs, and roofs with no roof at all and just a few horizontal wooden poles. They are made of various materials, terrains, and conditions."

Lan En crossed his arms and spoke calmly about the training process he had formulated.

"I want you to run up here without any scruples, but you can't let the people living below find any clues. By then, you will have completed the [Stealth Footwork]."

"Of course, if someone is found jumping around on the roof of your house and wants to beat you up, then just treat it as a good time to practice boxing and kill two birds with one stone."

As Lan En spoke plainly, the anticipation on Fubo's face solidified and stiffened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The demon hunter waved his hand: "Don't worry, we won't let you run wildly at the beginning. You can start by walking slowly. Running silently is just the final goal."

Then Fu Bai's stiff face relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay." Lan En clapped his hands, indicating that the training was officially underway. "Now, climb up."

So the little girl jumped up lightly. With the attainment of [Light Body Technique], she could jump so high that her soles were about 1.5 meters above the ground.

He stretched out his hand and hooked onto the edge of the wall made of clay mixed with gravel, and then turned over.

Lan En looked down there for a while. Fu Bai was carefully stepping on the roof of someone else's house while avoiding the gazes of passers-by.

The first time she tried, she stepped on the roof of a tiled house until it made a clicking sound.

Thanks to the fact that the owner of the house seemed to have gone out to do some work, no one noticed him immediately.

Fu Bai was also very self-aware, so she quickly jumped onto the roof of the nearby clay house, making her footsteps small enough to be tolerated.

Seeing that the little girl's training was on track, Lan En turned and left the fisherman's area.

Fubo is training, but he also has his own business to do.
