Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 356 355. Crazy hunter

 “Pfft!”

 A smooth and silver blade pierced the human body cleanly.

 The sound of blood being squeezed out of the body was brief and quick.

The lycanthropic patient was panting and still holding the pitchfork and stabbing forward after nailing the person to the wall. The head of a blade was exposed from his mouth.

The blade of the knife was not stained with blood, and it shattered its teeth and gums, which had begun to become deformed.

  The lycanthropic patient was still twisting and twitching under the deformed vitality, but after the knife head was twisted ninety degrees, it completely collapsed.

 Dogs affected by lycanthropy become larger, more ferocious, and more sensitive.

One of the dogs, which had torn off a piece of its forearm, sensed something was wrong and whimpered in confusion.

 “Wooing?”

 At the next moment before it has time to raise its head.

 “Boom!”

 A boot with an external plate armor stamped directly on its neck!

With the violent force and heavy weight, this kick made the dog's neck press against the wall, and the cervical vertebrae made a crisp sound.

 The cervical vertebrae, crushed and deformed by the force, pierced its rotten skin, and the stinking plasma that burst out was squeezed onto the wall in a sputtering pattern.

Lan En calmly stabbed out a steady and precise knife in an instant, and kicked the neck of a sick vicious dog.

The other two reacted at the same time, shook off the lifeless flesh and blood in their mouths, and pounced on Lan En.

The witcher used his peripheral vision to determine the location, then clenched his free hand into a fist and said, "Bang!"

The iron nails on the fists of the studded leather gloves were pushed into the head of a mad dog in mid-air by the violent force.

 The nails tore flesh, and the fists crushed bones.

 “Wuka!”

 After the mad dog screamed in mid-air, Lan En's fist directly pressed its mandible and hit the wall!

The lower half of the mad dog's mouth was completely shattered into a ball, and thick blood mixed with bone debris flowed and sputtered out.

 He retracted his fist and raised his forearm to block the side of his neck. The last mad dog happened to be knocked away by the forearm wearing a steel protective gear during the process of retracting his fist.

At this time, the bright silver blade was finally pulled out from the back and mouth of the lycanthropic patient.

Like a whip, the blade drew a full and graceful arc in the air.

　　Swiping horizontally from the chest, the entire mad dog was cut in half by Alondette's blade.

Lan En subconsciously flicked the blade, and the minced meat and thick blood hanging on the knife were thrown to the ground with a "slap", and the Lake Lady's Sword became spotless again.

 Only the golden runes on the blade lit up.

The witcher's big hand suddenly moved its palm back and blocked the air beside him.

He received a brown glass bottle the size of a beer bottle. The mouth of the bottle was sealed with a piece of burning cloth.

 This is a homemade Molotov cocktail.

 Those who are not yet highly lycanthropic can still use the tools they used when they were humans, and their hand bone structure is not so distorted that they lose their human shape.

 So to a certain extent, it is difficult to say which one is more destructive than patients whose lycanthropy has developed to a later stage.

Lan En didn’t even look at it and directly caught the Molotov cocktail without frightening the lycanthropic patients who had just arrived.

There were four or five of them, most of them wearing shabby top hats or straw hats. It looked like they were living a hard life in Yharnam. In this sudden night of hunting, they became sick very quickly.

Most of them are holding pitchforks, bone-chopping knives and other living tools, and one of them is holding a long musket in his hand.

That was the only thing Lan En paid some attention to.

The witcher watched calmly as they rushed toward them with a low roar, and then the moment the musketeer raised his finger, he threw out the Molotov cocktail in his hand again.

 The glass bottle was shattered by the bullet just at the muzzle of the musket.

 The Molotov cocktail exploded in mid-air has a wider killing area than being thrown directly.

 The gasoline in the bottle immediately enveloped all the lycanthropic patients. In Yanam, people believe that ‘when hunting wild animals, you should use fire’.

This understanding is so paranoid that every household will stockpile dangerous flammable materials.

 But this is indeed a rule of thumb.

The lycanthropic patients who were on fire panicked and released their weapons, then screamed and rolled, and finally turned into a charred corpse paralyzed on the ground.

“Huh~ It seems that the flames are indeed a special attack. It feels like the reaction of ordinary people to being burned is greater than that of ordinary people.”

 Lan En whistled, taking into account the trajectory of the Molotov cocktail, the shooting time of the musket man, and other factors.

 Then a Molotov cocktail that combined all the information perfectly enveloped all of them.

This gave Lan En a sense of satisfaction in achieving his goal perfectly according to the plan.

But the matter was not over yet. Behind the burned-to-death lycanthropes, a figure stepped onto the ground where the flames of the Molotov cocktail gradually subsided.

The top hat, the light gray stand-collar trench coat, the tight-fitting suit vest inside, and the scattered belts and metal gadgets hanging on the body for the convenience of hunting. There is no doubt that this is a hunter from Yanan.

 He lowered his head, the brim of his top hat blocking his face.

In terms of dressing sense, his hunting attire has a "fashion sense" that belongs to the Victorian era.

 Lan En tentatively named him ‘Fashionable Hunter’ in his mind.

 “Are you a hunter out for hunting?”

The witcher took the lead in showing a friendly gesture. Although the blood on the opponent's coat is very thick, it is not surprising that the Yharnam hunters always work in this manner.

 Lan gradually approached and then stopped at a safe distance.

 The judgment of the safe distance is mainly based on the length of the opponent's weapon. The stylish hunter's weapon is a sturdy-looking steel cane, which is about the same size as a long sword.

 The front end is bladed for stabbing, and although the back section is also bladed, it is not very sharp and seems to be mainly used for whipping.

 The safe distance Lan left was more than enough.

And he has shown that he is a normal person. On the night of the hunt, this is almost proof that he is of the same kind.

But after Lan En spoke, the fashionable hunter never meant to respond.

Instead, he replaced the steel cane in his hand with an underhand grip.

Lan En's eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing this, and the handle of the knife that he had been carrying casually was re-held in his hand.

Sure enough, when this stylish hunter raised his head, thick black hair had begun to grow on most of his face!

The eyes have also collapsed into scattered pieces!

 “Shua!”

At the same moment when the stylish hunter raised his head, the cane he held in his hand suddenly emitted a spark of mechanical movement, and then a soft and swift steel reflection caught Lan En's eyes.

The witcher was originally standing loosely, but in an instant, he turned sideways very smoothly.

That steel reflection rubbed against his armor and was blown into the air!

 “Tch, I knew it.”

 Lan curled his lips.

“How can you Yharnam hunters use an ordinary walking stick?”

The witcher's cat eyes looked at the steel reflection in the stylish hunter's hand.

The originally integrated steel cane has been split into sections one by one, and the fractures of each section are sharp bevel cuts.

 Through a thread that is not just a steel wire but some other material, the sharp steel bars are locked together, turning them into a soft saw-toothed steel whip.

 Just now, the townspeople who turned into beasts threw Molotov cocktails.

 Now he is a beast-turned-out-of-control hunter who wants to use his hunting skills on humans.
