Chapter 27 27. Swamp Witch
The appearance of the water ghost and the swamp witch are quite different, and they appear to be reproductively isolated.
But St. Hyre of Dresden recorded his own speculation that the Swamp Witch was the wife of multiple water ghosts.
It is rumored that the swamp witch will disguise herself as an old lady to lure travelers into her lair, but in Lann's opinion, only drunkards who are so drunk that they can't control their hands and feet will fall into this trap.
After all, even a blind man can smell the stench of a swamp witch.
Lan En's eyes were sharp.
Because its even more impossible for him and Bernie to retreat quietly now.
Because the water ghost lives in the water all year round, his eyesight has deteriorated to a level similar to cataracts.
However, while the swamp witch possesses combat power that is superior to that of the water ghost, she does not suffer from even this shortcoming.
Its perception range and strength far exceed those of water ghosts.
The young man completed his observation in the blink of an eye, while Mentos' computing power was enough to complete the situation analysis at a glance.
Lan bent down again and walked back to Bernie.
Facing the old hunters hopeful look, Lan calmly explained the situation to him.
"Don't think about retreating quietly. There are only seven of these water ghosts nearby, not many in number, but there is a swamp witch inside. If we make a wrong step, if it barks, countless water ghosts around will act like mad dogs. Chase us.
We will definitely have to fight this time, but I need your help this time. Only by working together can we have a chance to get out of the woods alive.
This should have been a despairing statement, but under Lan En's calm tone, Bernie himself didn't know that he could be so calm.
"you say."
Bernie swallowed, tightened the rope on his long leather gloves, and took off the bow from his back.
Lan Ens explanation was not slow, but methodical and clear.
"I will be responsible for charging and melee combat in a moment. You can show up after you hear the cry of the water ghost."
"After you emerge, you will see a conspicuous target. It is human-shaped, larger than a water ghost, and covered with wrinkles and warts. That is the swamp witch. You have to shoot at it, but don't shoot in a hurry. Wait for it to bend down and follow the target. When it picks something up from the ground, shoot an arrow to interrupt it."
Shoot at the torso, but dont shoot at the vital points. It reacts quickly and its skin is very strong. Your arrow is not made of silver, so dont even think about hurting it. Just help me contain it.
Rapid speaking speed can make people's brains work quickly and even forget fear.
Detailed information can give people confidence and courage. At least Bernie feels that his hand with the bow is steadier.
"Understood!"
Lan En nodded, moved sideways lightly, slightly away from Bernie, and then made a stroke with his left hand in the air.
A golden magical light flashed on the surface of the body.
Going to Quen before the war is a cultivation of the Bear School.
Exhale the last breath of air from your chest and take another deep breath.
Suck~bang!
At the moment when the lungs are filled with fresh oxygen, the muscles and bones work together and the soles of the feet touch the ground!
The center of gravity was suddenly shifted to the upper body by the skills of [Bear School Swordsmanship].
Almost instantly, the combined weight and armor reached over a hundred kilograms and reached the top speed!
This reaction force is really huge and sudden.
So much so that the buckles on the boots, which are responsible for fixing the armor and leather, even made a mournful scream in Lan En's ears as the metal and leather were tightened!
Like a cheetah, the charging posture with its center of gravity leaning forward can even disturb the branches two meters away with the wind!
Whoa?
A water ghost turned its head in confusion, but just halfway, a silver sword tip with cold light pierced its throat.
Bernie could see clearly from a distance that even when he was charging forward, the long sword in Lan En's hand was as steady as "gliding" in the air!
The sound of an object of more than a hundred kilograms violently hitting the ground completely covered up the sound of the sword blade piercing flesh.
But blood still spurted out.
Having rushed into the attack range of the water ghosts, Lan En's eyes were calm and determined.
The water ghosts immediately entered an attacking posture after the first victim appeared. The two water ghosts who were standing relatively close to each other immediately rushed toward the Lan En monster, screaming!
Leaping into the air, the shadow of the water ghost enveloped Lan En.
Now, the long sword in the young man's hand is piercing the middle of the water ghost's neck, and the corpse of the monster that is twitching and dying has become a burden that hinders the action.
But the charge has not stopped yet!
The young man was facing the two water ghosts and didn't even slow down!
It passed by the water ghost whose throat was stabbed, and the silver sword was still fighting against the cervical vertebrae at the back of the water ghost's throat.
The hands holding the sword and the silver sword itself naturally lag behind the charging body.
Does he have to rely on physical collision to face the monster's claws?
No, of course not!
Hands behind - part of the energy storage!
"ha!"
A loud shout! The muscles and blood vessels of the two arms holding the hilt of the sword were congested and swollen in an instant!
The extent of the muscle bulge cannot even be covered by the bloated and thick cotton armor!
The leather and cloth made a squeaking sound as they were stretched.
The center of gravity begins to shift, and the sword's momentum changes from "thrusting" to "slashing".
The silver sword, with its different cervical vertebrae, was swung directly by Lan En!
The dying monster was forcibly lifted half a foot high by the force of the silver sword!
The cervical vertebrae play the role of drawing the sword and hitting the scabbard, and the friction between it and the blade accelerates the completion of the energy accumulation.
The water ghost was stabbed through the throat. At this time, its back and neck were in an awkward convex arc.
Then when Lan Ens sword speed reached its maximum, Pfft!
The "cervical vertebrae" that served as the scabbard were directly chopped open, and the body broke out!
The silver sword that had completed its acceleration, carrying frightening silver light and the dirty blood brought out by the blade, passed straight past the bodies of the two water ghosts in mid-air!
The speed was so fast that the sound of entering the flesh could not even be heard.
A water ghost was cut open in the thin line of silver light, its arm connected to half of its shoulder and head.
The other one jumped so high that its entire white belly was opened sideways.
Cervical vertebrae Iaihe!
There are only four left of seven!
Because Lan En's attack was so fast and fierce that the blood of the three monsters was spurted out of the body at almost the same time.
The thick fishy smell instantly filled the entire puddle in the forest.
Even the water ghosts who like fishy food were briefly dazed by the smell of their own blood.
The dirty blood did not touch Lan En's body because it was blocked by a thin layer of golden magical aura.
But at the next moment, Lan En's cat eyes shrank sharply.
With a sound of "Boom!", the golden magic aura first shook and shone like ripples on the water, and then suddenly shattered!
An impact that was not blocked came from behind the left shoulder.
This force was so fierce that even the remnant after it was offset by Kun En's seal caused Lan En's upper body to twist around half a circle!
Whoa whoa whoa!
That sound is different from the cry of the water ghost, just like the mocking of an old woman.
Swamp witches are good at throwing. On the tidal flats near the water, they usually throw mud pellets to obscure people's vision, and then use their terrifying claws to tear their prey into pieces.
But in this forest, it can easily pick up stones that are much more threatening than mud balls!
The flow of the center of gravity was broken by external forces, and Lan En simply gave up his standing posture.
An extremely relaxed forward roll, leaping more than two meters, temporarily widening the distance from the enemies.
But the first thing the young man thought of at this time was not himself, but his companions.
Bernie. Why didnt you shoot it?
Standing back up, Lan En could only tell Mentos to use the corner of his eye to observe his companions, his eyes not daring to move away from the strangely smiling swamp witch.
