Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 192 The Sharp Sword
Emerald Field.

As the sun disappeared over the western horizon, Thorne stood on a large rock, where he waited.

The afterglow of the dusk gradually disappeared, and his shadow became longer and longer.

He just stood there quietly until the entire Emerald Field was shrouded in darkness.

"Zheng!"

Thorn's hand slid directly to the position of the sword hilt at his waist, the unpretentious scabbard showed its sharpness, and the cold light flashed from the sharp blade, converging on the devil rune on the edge of the sword.

As the night deepened, Thorn left the stone that had stood for a long time. Under the blessing of the Shadow Hand School's stance skill "Shadow Beloved", his body was as silent as a shadow, just like a man in the autumn wind. A flying leaf is inconspicuous.

Thorn walked along the mountain path, so agile that even the gravel and rough ground did not slow him down.

He moves nimbly through the woods, so silently, thanks to his Forest Walk feat, that most forest beasts, even wary felines, don't hear or notice him. Come, and if the wind hadn't carried his scent, the animals would never have known he had passed.

"Sand! Sand! Sand!"

After a while, he came to a small forest. He jumped from the branch of a big tree to another. ground.

"boom!"

Thorne jumped down from under the big leafy tree, his expression gradually regained his composure, and the palms that were holding the sword hilt were no longer bulging with blue veins.

From the moment he left Upper Falls, he knew he needed a kill to ease his restlessness, so he came here, that's all.

I don't know why, but he is so eager for a killing, a hearty battle, because of his arrival, the wilderness tonight is destined not to be peaceful.

Following the trails of humanoid activity on the ground, Thorne made his way through a small valley and a grove of woods until he spotted a campfire close enough that he could see vague figures moving.

Thorne knew right away that they were vicious gnolls by their height, bushy manes, and moving steps.

The two gnoll guards seemed to be arguing. The first humanoid creature among Thorne's ranger enemies was the gnoll, so just by virtue of their squirming throats and expressions, they could understand what they were saying.

From their irritable facial expressions and the shape of their mouths, we know that one of them should be leaving temporarily, while the other started to complain, complaining about standing guard for a long time. I think it's uncomfortable to stand there like this.

Thorne squatted behind a bush not far away, with a cruel smile on his face. At this time, he didn't want to use any skills, but just wanted to use his fighting skills with the Demon Slaying Sword in his hand to fight with one sword at a time. Eliminate all the enemies in front of you.

"Always let me stand guard alone." The wolf man with the spear was left alone in the same place, so he kept complaining. He looked back at the camp, and there were many wolf men gathered there, some lying on the ground Resting, some are chewing rotten food, but he is the only one standing guard here foolishly.

The imbalance in his heart made it impossible for the wolf man holding a spear to stand guard with peace of mind. He complained and muttered while pacing back and forth, looking back at the wolf man eating by the campfire from time to time.

When the jackal just turned around to be on guard, he suddenly saw a clear and stern face in front of him, with long black and messy hair fluttering in the wind, and sharp eyes looking straight at him, which made him shiver uncontrollably. .

The Gnoll who reacted was about to reach out for his spear when he saw a cold light coming from left to right. The Gnoll subconsciously raised his arm to block it, but his speed was too slow to keep up with Soo En wields the speed of the long sword.

"Pfft!"

Just as the jackal was about to scream, the sharp blade with scorching breath immediately cut a fatal gash in his throat.

Rolling blood soaked the rough leather armor and thick mane of the wolf man. The wolf man covered the fatal wound with his hand, but the sharp long sword in Thorne's hand slashed across the wolf man's body one after another, Every sword is not enough to be fatal, he just wants to vent the endless anger in his heart.

The dying Gnoll turned around and wanted to seek support from the camp, but the blade hit his leg taking advantage of the situation, and the sharp blade easily severed his muscles and tendons.

Just as the Gnoll guard was about to fall to the ground and end his brutal life, he felt a hand grabbing him the moment he fell, causing his body to fall quietly to the ground without making any sound.

Gnoll was still alive, though he couldn't breathe.

——"One ring of magic: no trace!"

Accompanied by the faint green light emanating from the wooden holy emblem, Thorne was enveloped by an invisible energy. Then he glanced at the dying wolf man, picked up the spear on the ground, and left without a sound.

Under a big tree not far from the Wolf man camp, two Wolf men were talking about something.

A gnoll with a ostentatious expression on his face seemed to be saying to his companions: He deceived another gnoll standing guard, that guy is still standing guard stupidly, but I can be lazy here, hahahaha.

"boom!"

At this time, a spear flew quickly through the woods between the two of them, and stuck straight into a big tree.

"Ow!"

The ostentatious wolf man saw the familiar spear and roared angrily. He recognized the owner of the spear and thought that it was the guard wolf man who attacked him, so he wanted to teach the spear owner a lesson. .

So he pulled out the spear stuck in the tree, and prepared to go to find the bad luck of the wolf man standing guard with his companions, so that he could understand what would happen if he didn't stand guard properly and annoyed himself.

Just as the two jackals turned around and were about to leave, a black shadow appeared in front of them. Thorne casually leaned against a big tree, staring at the two jackals as if they were dead.

The scarlet pupils of the two gnolls were filled with icy eyes, messy long black hair and sharp blades.

"Ow!"

The two wolf men roared angrily, one wolf man waved a spear, the other wolf man showed its sharp claws, and rushed towards Thorne with a ferocious smile.

The jackal spun the spear skillfully and nimbly, and threw it down with all his strength, trying to stop Thorne who was demanding his life.

Thorn's figure moved slightly, dodging the falling spear, and stopped in the middle of the two gnolls. The spear and sharp claws slashed at Thorn's thin body again with a piercing sound.

Thorn, who stood still, blocked the spear with one long sword, and quickly swung the other short sword twice to block the two attacks of the wolf man's claws.

"Pfft!"

A scorching cold light flashed, and the whole body of the wolf man holding the spear was split into two, and the painful wailing echoed in the wilderness.

"boom!"

At the same time as the wolf man fell to the ground, Thorne exerted force with his right foot and kicked another wolf man who raised its sharp claws and was about to attack again.

The wolf man who had been kicked in the abdomen staggered back a few steps, and was about to attack again, when his scarlet eyes suddenly noticed the body of the wolf man divided into two, looking at the separated body of his companion and howling in pain lying on the ground.

"Ow!"

Gnoll let out a low growl, turned around and ran away, screaming in fear as he ran towards the camp.

"It turns out that you are also afraid sometimes."

Seeing the wolf man leaving, Thorne did not chase after him. He wanted the escaped wolf man to go to the camp to report the situation here, causing panic in the wolf man's heart.

Thorn let the fleeing gnolls escape back to the camp where the bonfire was lit, and used his climbing skills to hide in the shadow of a big tree near the camp. While quickly scanning the surrounding terrain, he checked the gnolls Quantity in the camp.

High-spirited howls spread into the Gnoll camp, and the Gnoll immediately scattered the filthy food and carrion on the ground, and most of them took up weapons.

"boom!"

Noticing the panicked wolf man, Thorne just jumped into the camp carelessly.

The moment his feet touched the ground, those jackals standing outside immediately spotted him, and they shouted and screamed. A jackal even threw a spear at him.

Thorn easily dodged the clumsy flying spear, and could have caught it unscathed if he wanted to.

"Pfft!"

A jackal roared and rushed towards him first. Thorne showed no fear, and the demon-slaying long sword drew a deadly cold light from under the mace that the jackal was about to block.

"thump!"

The jackal wailed and fell to the ground on his back.

With the fall of the first gnoll, Thorn's figure quickly appeared in the scarlet sight of all gnolls, and his eyes immediately focused on the four gnolls who approached him first.

"Clang clang!"

The sharp blade in Thorn's hand moved forward and backward, one sword after another to block the advancing spear.

Although his demon-slaying long sword could cut off the sharp spear easily, he just wanted to play tricks on the wolf man, so he was not in a hurry to cut off the spear.

When he noticed another wolf man who was approaching, Thorne immediately separated the spear with the blade of his sword and stabbed it, then used the short sword in his left hand to fly the spear high, and his footsteps suddenly The forward rush made the wolf man in front lose his balance, and the cold light of the blade quickly cut the wolf man's throat.

Thorn's nimble figure continued to move forward without slowing down. In the blink of an eye, he approached the second gnoll in this way. He turned and spun, and once again swiped away the length of the gnoll in an instant. Sword, when he was about to complete the roundabout, the long sword in his hand pierced the wolf man's heart quickly and powerfully.

Then Thorne stepped over the body of the wolf man.

A stick was swept towards him, and he felt the sound of the wind breaking through the air. Thorne's expression remained unchanged. He slowed down, and then jumped up, jumping higher than a spear stuck in the ground.

He stood firmly on the wooden club that attacked him with his feet as if they were rooted, and lowered the weapon with his own weight.

"Pfft!"

The long sword swept across, and the head of the wolf man shot up into the sky under the eruption of blood.

At the same time, another wolf-man holding a spear followed closely. Thorn stared at him indifferently. The back of the Demon-Slaying Sword slapped the spear in the wolf-man's hand continuously, making it impossible for him to lift it. Hands holding the spear together.

Thorn, who had had enough fun, flashed to the side, and the dagger instantly sank into the body of the wolf man. The wolf man staggered forward and fell to the ground. Left and right, the dead can't die anymore.

Thorne walked over the corpse of the gnoll and rushed towards a pair of cooperating gnolls.

Thorn lowered his body and used his knees to make an emergency stop. At this time, the wolf man also responded, and the sword and spear struck at Thorne at the same time. The moment Thorn's knees hit the ground, he suddenly moved forward. Roll on the spot.

"Pfft!"

With the scorching wind sound, the Demon Slaying Sword slashed across a cold light, and with the wolf man's mournful howl, four bloody thighs were scattered all over the ground.

Thorne's long sword swept across two cold lights, and the screams stopped abruptly.

Thorn walked away again stepping over the corpses of the two gnolls.

Inside the Gnoll's camp.

Facing the crowd of crazy wolves, Thorne moved instinctively to avoid all kinds of deadly attacks. Whenever he dodged an attack, the long sword and short sword in his hand could quickly make a fatal counterattack.

A stream of blood spattered, and the jackals gathered around him fell to the ground crying or lying on the ground struggling in pain.

At this time, Thorn seemed to be in a land of no one, and the blood-soaked ground was full of jackal heads, severed limbs, and corpses that had turned into two pieces.

"Ouch..."

A cry of begging for mercy came out from the mouth of the ferocious jackal.

The remaining gnolls already knew that they couldn't stand against the enemy with long black hair and double blades, so they all chose to lie on the ground trembling.

The cold light of the Demon Slaying Sword flickered frequently, and the heads of jackals shot up into the sky.

After the scuffle, the air was filled with a disgusting smell of blood. Thorne pointed his sword, and a raging flame burned in the Gnoll camp.

Under the light of the fire, his figure gradually disappeared into the thick night
