Lord Hunter needs a commission

Charlotte's pale golden pupils froze.

In the attack just now, at least nearly one-third of his sword energy suddenly deflected out for no reason and cut the concrete floor under his feet.And the remaining two-thirds, each sword qi enough to cut through the bulletproof armor, were all swallowed up by the force field shield without exception.

Except for more than a dozen cracks on the force field shield, Charlotte did not cause any damage to the sneak attacker.And taking advantage of the moment when Charlotte's offensive was blocked, the sneak attacker retreated outside the flames, and disappeared from Charlotte's sight as if he had merged with the darkness.

"Advanced Shield of Shadow and Shadow Walk? Are you a shadow mage?"

Standing on the sword, Charlotte brought his perception to the highest level, and he recognized the ability displayed by the sneak attacker just now.The one that emerges from the shadow and dissolves into the darkness is the magic-like ability Shadow Walking, and the force field shield that blocked his lore blow is a supernatural ability of shadow energy.

According to the data in memory, in the old era, the above two abilities mostly appeared among the shadow mages who used the shadow magic net.However, in the century when both the magic net and the shadow magic net have been annihilated, any individual who can drive shadow energy, whether it is a natural ability or acquired mastery, is called a shadow mage.

This is a tricky object. Most of the shadow energy is weird and difficult. Not only is it common to manipulate undead, but it can also create all kinds of illusions that are false.

In addition, when the sneak attacker emerged from the shadow, he didn't even make a sound when he swung the scimitar in his hand. If it wasn't for Charlotte's more sensitive perception, it would be difficult to guard against his sneak attack.

To deal with this kind of guy, it is best to put it under the light, or use a strong light to dispel the surrounding darkness and shadows to force it out.However, for Charlotte, neither of the above solutions holds.

To make matters worse, the current dark environment is precisely the opponent's home field.

The sneak raider, who entered the darkness, stepped into the shadow world and disappeared from the material world.When he appeared again, he had escaped from Charlotte's perception and flashed into the complex terrain.

But this does not mean leaving, on the contrary, with the help of shadow walking, he can emerge from the darkness or shadow anytime and anywhere, and launch a fatal blow to Charlotte.

The looming killing intent in the air stimulated Charlotte's spirit and consciousness, making him dare not be careless.

roar~

Just as Charlotte was on guard against the attacker who might swing a deadly knife from the shadows at any time, a deep roar broke the tranquility in the darkness.

Booming and booming sounds came from behind, and the rapid voices alternated. A strong figure was rampaging in the dark environment, smashing all the obstacles encountered along the way and rushing towards Charlotte.

"What is this?" The dark vision allowed Charlotte to see the charging monster clearly while turning around.

It was a full three to four meters high, with thick brown-gray muscles all over its body, especially its hands showed a strange mutation, becoming extremely huge.When it is vertical, it can touch the ground, allowing this monster to run wildly with its hands and feet when it moves.

roar~

The rushing humanoid monster roared, swung its huge arms, and slammed down on Charlotte.

With a bang, the monster's attack fell through the air, but the fist that hit the concrete floor tore the entire ground apart, and the flying gravel shot out, like bullets flying towards the surroundings.

Charlotte took off on the spot and leaped into the air, dodging the powerful punch.

Turning around in the air, the long sword stretched out and fell from the sky. With the advantage of going from top to bottom, Charlotte stabbed several swords and landed on the monster's back.

A series of clashing sounds of gold and stone rang out, and Charlotte was surprised to find that when her thrusting blade landed on the monster, it only burst out orange sparks but failed to penetrate its body.

But at this moment of distraction, the attack came again.

Just when Charlotte hadn't retracted her sword and was still in mid-air, the figure in a black cloak suddenly emerged from the darkness above Charlotte, slashing head-on with the black scimitar.

Not only that, there was a whistling sound, and an arrow pierced the darkness with slight blue particles and pointed at Charlotte.

【Heart High-Sword Xiang】

In the middle of the air, Charlotte's figure, who should have nowhere to rely on, suddenly twisted in the air, and the long sword in his right hand was lifted suddenly, turning into a flash of light and pointing at the scimitar that cut down Charlotte from above.

At the same time, she shook her free left hand in the air, and through gestures, Charlotte activated the Kunen Seal and formed a golden light curtain covering her body out of thin air.

Nourishing~

The long sword and the scimitar collided, and the blade swung slightly against the blade of the scimitar, deflecting it out.And the arrow that came from the lasing hit Charlotte's left shoulder, blocked by the faint golden light, and flew out with all his strength.

At the critical moment, Charlotte defuses this fatal siege with great danger.

However, before he could catch his breath, a huge and heavy fist hit Charlotte with a howling wind.

The golden curtain of light covering Charlotte's body with the Kunn Seal shattered in an instant, and the heavy fist landed firmly on her body. With one blow, Charlotte was blown away by more than ten meters and knocked over. unknown machinery.

"Ahem~" Leaning on the long sword, Charlotte got up on her knees and coughed in a low voice.

The weight of this punch is not light. From the fact that this monster can smash the concrete floor with one punch, it can be seen that an ordinary person would definitely be smashed to pieces.Even though her body was very strong, Charlotte still felt tightness in her chest, and all the muscles and bones of her body were aching.

roar~

The monster that blasted Charlotte away roared wildly, and its invulnerable body rushed towards him again like a train.And the sneak attacker, who was elusive in the darkness and shadows, once again showed his figure, and the scimitar in his hand swung down again.

Another arrow followed in the darkness, and shot at Charlotte's head.

Suddenly, Charlotte fell into a desperate situation.

But facing the scene in front of him, there was no panic in Charlotte's eyes, only a flash of thunder flashed in the pale golden eyes in an instant.

Boom~!

In the sky outside the factory, thunder exploded out of thin air, a dazzling thunder tore through the dark sky, and fell from the sky like a scorching blade, falling into the factory.

A house in the factory was instantly pierced by thunder, illuminating the darkness in the house and dispelling all the shadows it passed by.

The electric current that sprinted like a dragon and snake gathered on the long sword in Charlotte's hand one after another.

Electricity is hidden in the sword, and the current is like a sword. The dazzling sword light is accompanied by thunder and lightning, and rushes towards the attacking enemy.

[Xinren-Sword Emperor]——The king is in the world.

Chapter 19 Psionic Swordsmanship

Under normal circumstances, Charlotte cannot dream.And once he had a dream when he fell asleep, then he had entered the dream of a certain creature.Most of these creatures are human beings, or seem to be human beings, and during this process, Charlotte will communicate with these individuals to a certain extent.

As for the communication method?

Well, either she was hacked to death by a double-edged knife like she saw Maria for the first time; or the two parties sat down to talk calmly and explained the whole story.

This wonderful ability cannot be controlled independently at all, and every time it is passively effective.That is to say, in the illusory dream, Charlotte would not have died in the true sense, otherwise he would have died so long ago that even his bones were turned into ashes.

Of course, this ability is not without benefits.

At least when entering those talkative people, such as people in the good camp in layman's terms, most of them will listen to the whole story, and then wait for the end of the dream after talking for Charlotte to leave naturally.

There are also some who are not hostile to Charlotte, but are more or less curious about Charlotte's ability to connect to other people's dreams and the world he lives in.For example, the demigod Wentian from the alien plane who taught him swordsmanship - Nangong is one of them.

However, most of these existences and individuals know that the world they live in is not the only one.As the demigod Wentian-Nangong said, the worlds are as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River. As the apex of one world, even if they cannot leave the plane they are in, they can still understand the existence of the other world.

During the conversation with the demigod, Charlotte shared the past and history of the world he knew, and the demigod also reciprocated by instructing him in swordsmanship, which eventually led to the birth of the heresy of the cat griffin taught by the wolf school. .

The swordsmanship that Charlotte is currently using is taught by the demigod himself. It is called "Psychic Swordsmanship (Heart Sword God)", which contains various philosophical concepts of life values ​​and values. Every swordsmanship can Randomly create a sword energy equivalent to a plastic force field, and introduce a special psionic power into it, producing powerful lethality and even directly affecting reality.

This legendary swordsmanship is divided into eight types of moves, the first six are just the usual introduction of psychic powers to generate sword energy with different abilities.And starting from the seventh type, this legendary sword technique will become extremely dangerous and its power will increase greatly.

The seventh form, Xinren-Jianhuang-attach the mind to the blade, forming a special force field to pull the thunder in nature to strike down, and then mix this high-temperature lightning into the sword energy and swing it out, thus greatly Amplitude increases the user's speed, strength, attack range and destructive power.

However, guiding the thunderbolt to fall on him is an extremely dangerous move. If he fails to resist the baptism of the thunderbolt and control this energy, he will be smashed into coke by the thunderbolt at worst, or suffer serious internal injuries at the least.

The real ultimate move that kills one thousand enemies and harms eight hundred.

Even if her own bloodline transformation has a certain resistance, after Charlotte pulls the thunder, she can hardly hold back the electric energy that is crazily flowing in her body, and can only quickly turn the electric energy into sword energy and swing it out.

The sword energy with high temperature and lightning, along with Charlotte's long sword, formed a blue-white light.

The closest one was the humanoid monster who punched Charlotte hard and was able to resist Charlotte's blade and sword energy with his body.Because of its large size, it became the first target of the sword energy containing powerful electricity.

It was almost as easy as cutting butter, and the blade directly cut through the indestructible body. In less than half a second, Charlotte swung dozens of sword qi and chopped the humanoid monster to pieces.

Then he turned around, and the sword light shot at the sneak attacker who was using the scimitar.The sneak raider, who could slip into the shadows and blend into the darkness, was no longer hidden by the flashing thunder.

Unable to dodge or stop, He once again summoned a force field shield shining with purple-black light.But this time, this shadow shield formed by supernatural abilities could neither deflect Charlotte's attack nor counteract the electric force that came along with the sword energy.

As soon as it came into contact, the shield was instantly torn, and then the sneak attacker was also submerged by the sword energy, and his entire body was burned into coke and fly ash by lightning.

As for the arrow that shot at Charlotte's head, it had already been wiped out in the raging lightning.

But Charlotte has not forgotten the existence of an enemy.

With the help of the environment illuminated by the thunder, Charlotte locked onto the shooter, a middle-aged man in leather armor, who was hundreds of steps away from him.

After watching Charlotte behead his two companions, the shooter backed away quickly and unhurriedly. While backing up, the longbow in his hand was pulled away by him, and an arrow with azure blue magic particles He has already put it on the bowstring.

However, before he could let go of the bowstring, Charlotte walked over a distance of hundreds of steps with lightning, and raised the long sword in his hand, letting him follow in the footsteps of his companions.

……

After beheading the last enemy, Charlotte let out a long breath and put the long sword on the ground to support his body.

Although there is still electricity in the body, the pain can be overcome with patience.

After a little adjustment, Charlotte took action again.

Even if there is no light source and plunges herself into darkness, dark vision still allows Charlotte to see things in the dark clearly.So at first glance, he saw the broken and extinguished lantern. "The lantern is gone!" Sighing, Charlotte shook her head. After confirming that there were no enemies around, she bent down and began to check the three dead enemies.

Now, he knows why some hunters disappeared here.If they encountered the attack of these three guys here and were caught off guard, they would probably be killed on the spot.

Sneakers who can sneak into the shadows, archers who are suspected to be archers, and humanoid monsters with huge bodies and strong defenses, which are deadly enough for most hunters.

Especially this humanoid monster, depending on the situation, can completely ignore small-caliber bullets. Unless it is a large-caliber weapon or high explosive, there is no way to break through its body and cause damage to it.

I'm afraid even if he was allowed to face the regular federal army, if he hadn't used heavy firepower to cover and kill him at a long distance, once he got close to him, he would have to pay a considerable price to deal with this guy.

If it weren't for the power of the seventh form of psychic swordsmanship far surpassing the first six forms, otherwise Charlotte would have nothing to do with this guy for a while.

Except for the remains of this humanoid monster, the other two attackers had already been charred in the lightning, but these two guys were also professionals who had mastered certain skills.

It's no wonder that Novigrad's hunters will be planted here.

only……

After checking, Charlotte stood up again, and turned her vision to the darkness not far away.The kind of negative emotions transmitted in the air, the looming source of negative energy has not disappeared.

Holding the blade, Charlotte quietly took steps forward, step by step.

The hunt isn't over yet.

Chapter 20 The Dungeon Boss of Rushing Street

Benitedo's hand, which was preparing the test tubes, trembled unavoidably with a loud thunderclap.This shake prevented him from grasping the test tube held by two fingers immediately, so that the test tube filled with blood-like bright red liquid fell down and smashed to pieces on his left foot.

He raised his head, under the slightly sloppy blond hair, a pair of bloodshot eyes revealed fierceness and anger. "Damn it." He glanced at the bright red liquid flowing all over the floor, and cursed, "Damn Talos, damn thunder, why is there thunder when it doesn't rain recently?" While cursing, Bei Nitaido took out an empty test tube from the cardboard box next to the table with a heartbroken heart.

At this time, the bright red liquid flowing on the ground has begun to evaporate for some reason.Seeing this, Benitedo hastily pulled the stopper away, and handed it to the bright red liquid on the ground, and then the liquid seemed to be attracted by something, surged up from the ground, and flowed into the test tube.

【Magic trick】

A trick that is so simple that every apprentice would use it. After all, this trick is not very useful, it can only deal with some things that are within reach.It is still within the scope of this trick to pull the liquid up from the ground, but if you say that using this trick to change the form of matter is completely impossible.

After all the bright red liquid had been poured into the test tube, Benitedo stopped the trick and firmly plugged the stopper into the test tube mouth.

However, looking at the bright red liquid that was measured in less than two-thirds of the previous test tube, Benitedo showed a heartbroken expression on his face.

This is money!

Although this bright red liquid is just the product of his failure to refine the fifth element during his experiments.But in any case, this is also the fifth element of a low-quality low-profile version.Although it is far from comparable to the original version, it still has a lot of effects.

At the very least, the liquid in this test tube can delay aging and heal injuries. As long as the person is not directly dead, drinking it can restore life. Even if it is said to be the legendary panacea, some people probably believe it.

Even though this liquid is a product of failure, it can be traded to those aging rulers in the city!At least those great people who have enjoyed almost everything, but have not yet enjoyed death, will do everything possible to use this liquid to delay the moment of enjoying death.

More importantly, this is the source of funds that the adult provided him.

Even if both he and that lord really cared about the bright red stone rather than this inferior product, it is not so easy to extract the stone.The failure rate has always been high, and the materials and equipment that need to be spent are also high. Neither he nor that adult will sell some successful stones to those big shots who should have died long ago, so they have to use these failed products to make use of them. The residual heat is gone.

Those ignorant guys can't see the knowledge in it, and basically think that these liquids are the miracle stones in many stories, and they can't wait to break their heads and snatch all these liquids back.

Therefore, one-third of the test tube measurement was lost at once, which made Benitedo feel heartbroken.

"What's going on?" Putting away the failed but valuable product that took three days to produce, Benitedo angrily walked to the window of the warehouse and looked out. "Damn weather." He turned around muttering, and walked back to the experiment table.

But when he passed by the table with a crystal ball on the way, Benitedo seemed to have noticed something and stopped, and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain covering the crystal ball.

"Asshole, I knew nothing good would happen." Looking at the cracks all over the crystal ball, Benitedo angrily threw the curtain in his hand like trash, then reached out and swept the crystal ball away. It fell to the ground and smashed to pieces. "After dawn, I must set up a [Defensive Lightning Energy Barrier] here, so that every time there is a thunderstorm, those useless spirits will be wiped out in large numbers."

This crystal ball is the core of the monitoring system installed by Benitedo in the factory.And the monitoring he chooses are many spirit bodies without ego, that is, some ghosts.

Although these ghosts can't even maintain their bodies, once they are exposed to sunlight, they will disappear immediately.But placed in this abandoned factory, it would be a good idea to serve as an eyeliner for monitoring.

However, other flaws of these ghosts are also very large.

Not only can it not survive in the sun, but even in the event of a thunderstorm, it is very likely to be affected by thunder and lightning, and it will be directly ashes.

If it was as expected, the thunder just now was probably caused by a bolt of lightning.There are not a few abandoned steel machines in this factory, and it is not surprising that they have become lightning guides. If a bolt of lightning really struck the factory, it would not be surprising that all the monitoring ghosts would be wiped out all at once.

After being angry for a while, Benitedo calmed down, and without thinking too much, he picked up a staff that was leaning on another table.

"ID: Benitedo."

Two light blue rays, extending from the pattern on the shoulders of Beniteto's robe, linked to a huge book placed on the table where the crystal ball had been placed.
