Chapter 4 The Silent Swordsman

Chapter 4 The Silent Swordsman
Macken raised the blood-stained sword silently, and took half a step back.

The few Lve Shadows around him seemed to have sensed his weakness, disregarding the companion who had just been beheaded, and slowly approached him on all fours.

But before these Lve Shadows could jump up with all their strength, Macken immediately took a step forward and swung the slightly retracted chopping sword vigorously.The blood-stained Karal Zhanjian exuded a faint light, and danced in a bright red arc in the air, splitting the few leaping shadows that had just jumped up around Macon in two in an instant!
——Arc cut!

This is Karal's military swordsmanship, which can get a level of strength bonus at the moment the attack is judged to be successful, and can also achieve the terrifying effect of cutting the enemy in half in the early stage.It's a pity that unless you are a master of weapons, you can only use the unique single-edged sword of Karal in your right hand to exert its full effect.

But at the moment when the arc of the sword flashed, a slightly stronger wolf-headed Lve Ying slyly bent down to avoid Macon's attack.

Then, with force from his front paws, he rolled and leaped from the ground in a strange movement, and with his barbed hind feet, he slashed towards Macon's head that was frozen in the air——

But at this moment, a round shield with edges full of sharp blades made a terrifying buzzing sound, spinning at high speed and cutting the wolf's head in half. Under the high-speed rotation of the blade, the black internal organs contaminated by magic were glimpsed. It squeezed out from the incision and lost its life without even making a cry.

Afterwards, the slender iron chain connected to the center of the shield was straightened violently, and the shield that was still rotating at high speed was pulled to draw a large circular arc, cutting or forcing the ghosts around Macken and Kluveen. retreat.

Finally, Macken, who was able to spare some space, let out a breath, and the black rune on his face retreated to his right eye.While guarding each other with Kluveen vigilantly, he backed away and whispered, "Thanks."

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

There was an almost mocking smile on Kluveen's fat face, and he used the iron chain to guide the shield to spin and fly back.The shield that stopped rotating was full of shallow scratches, and the blade with some internal organs became overheated due to the high-speed movement, and the pieces of meat rolled on the blade made a sizzling sound.

"You'll hit the head when you fight... You won't be able to get rid of this problem until you die." Kluvien looked vigilantly at Lve Ying, whose number continued to increase, and rubbed his fat, blood-stained fingers on Macon's body. , "However, pay attention to me a little bit, now you are not in the Hyena Legion, but there are not so many shield dancers to protect you from going crazy."

While the two were talking, a new silhouette appeared from the shadows. More than 20 pairs of dark green eyes stared coldly at him from afar, looking like a large field of fireflies from a distance.

Quantities are three digits.The ever-increasing number of snapshots gave Macon the feeling of meeting wolves in the deadwood wilderness when he was a child.The horrific feeling frightened him, and even the sword in his hand seemed to be a little unsteady.

Shaking his head slightly, he let go of the ominous feeling in his heart.Suddenly Macon heard a rush of footsteps behind him.

Lve Ying, who was also attracted by the new prey, also turned her head away.Almost instantly, Macken heard the sound of teeth fighting coming from behind.

Probably An Ruosi.

He couldn't help but sigh.

After all, he is an academic wizard.The purpose of vacation practice is to increase actual combat experience. It is not surprising that you are afraid of being like this when you encounter Lve Ying.After all, it was Lve Ying.

If I hadn't been an assassin at the White Tower and joined the army before, I'm afraid I would be like this now.

"Miss Claudia, please give this Mister Wizard an encouragement."

A soft and hoarse voice came from behind, and the overly neutral voice made it difficult for Macken to distinguish between men and women.

But when he realized that this voice had never been heard before, he immediately realized that it was probably the voice of the black robe that Kluveen had rescued.

"But... encouragement is used to shield the pain, and An Ruosi..." came the voice of a young lady pastor.Putting it together with that neutral voice, you can immediately hear the lack of confidence and hesitation, "I used two one-ring magic spells on you just now, and now the power is not enough..."

"Trust me, Miss Claudia."

The neutral voice came slowly.

"The magic of encouragement is a pain-relieving effect that was only developed in the 891 year of the divine calendar. Before the end of the undead war, it was mainly used for the low-level fighters of the friendly army to resist the fear halo on the opposite side. It is used to resist the plunder of shadow creatures Courage works just as well. Didn't you learn it in the temple?"

"Is...is that so? Well, I believe you."

Miss Pastor sounded like she had never heard anything like that.But she hesitated for a moment, and then decided to do what the black robe said.

Then, a golden light flashed behind him, and the teeth-stinging fighting sound stopped immediately.Not only that, even Macon felt that his shrinking heart calmed down a lot when he was illuminated a little bit by the light.

...What is the origin of that black robe!
Such an understanding of the divine arts in the field of war, wouldn’t it be the lunatics from the Withered Vine or the Deadwood family...

Macken, who was also from Caral, couldn't help being curious about the black robe behind him.If it weren't for the aggressiveness of these glimpses in front of him, he really wanted to turn his head and see what the black robe looked like - he was too busy judging the direction to go before, and he didn't have the chance to see the one whom Kluveen boasted about. What can Hualai's "good-looking boy" look like?

But at this moment, the pleasant hoarse voice came again: "The gentleman holding the sword in front...Look at the curse mark on your face, you are a silent swordsman, right?"

Hearing his words, Macken's heart was shocked, and he could hardly grasp the sword for a moment.

Silent Swordsman is a profession that was only developed by the R&D department of the White Tower the year before last.At present, only the Karal military assassins who have official cooperation with the White Tower can change jobs.

This particular class may not be as dangerous as the Shadow Warrior or the Poisoned Claw, but for Macon, who often completes assassination or scouting tasks, becoming a silent swordsman is much more useful than mastering the shadow power of the assassin class .

The Silent Swordsman is characterized by complete silence in attack and action.The black curse mark on the silent swordsman's face is the source of the enchantment's power. The silent curse mark will gradually fade and disappear with the opening time. Before it disappears completely, a very thin layer of silence enchantment will be covered around the weapon and body of the silent swordsman , both actions and attacks will become silent.

Although it's not as useful as it is for humans, it can be considered a sharp weapon for Lve Ying, who only uses his ears and eyes to lock the target, when combined with the slightly delayed stealth.

——But the point is, the news about this profession should still be at the top secret level!
Macken was startled, and killing intent suddenly appeared in his heart.But just as he was about to turn around and silence him, he immediately recalled it.

Considering the influence of the Druid Sect in the Principality of Caral, it seems that it is not surprising that a black robe knows...

As the only professional killing institution for scholars like druids, it is impossible for the black robes not to have their own news channels.

From this point of view, it doesn't seem so strange to know the information about the Silent Swordsman.

The moment he heard the black-robed druid's words, Macken's thoughts turned back and forth.He thought it best not to say anything at this time.

It seemed that there was no response, and the hoarse and soft voice sounded again behind him:

"Then, please turn off the curse seal first to save energy. Listen to me, I have a plan to wipe out all Looping—"

The voice behind said so, and took a step forward slowly.

The next moment, a dark green halo shone from behind Macon, quickly gliding along the ground.

Immediately, all Lve Ying seemed to be frozen in place, frozen in place.

It's a group monster immobilization technique!
Macken was overjoyed, relaxed and turned around.But just in time to see the black robe pull down the hood.

There is a hint of weakness in the delicate face, which is lovely, the fat-like skin is almost transparent due to lack of blood, and a pair of smart black eyes are full of confidence.This beautiful creature like a puppet of the Suze Empire is wrapped in a black robe that is one size bigger, exuding an almost magical charm, which makes people unconsciously have a good impression of him.

No wonder Kluvern thought he was a girl—

Contrary to Macken's own expectations, he didn't realize the slightest fear and awe when he saw the black robe for the first time, but such an almost disrespectful thought popped up in his mind.

Seriously, it's quite beautiful.
