Astartes of the Bear School

 Chapter 391 390.Shadow of Yanan

“You don’t have a good relationship with your alliance leader? No, you don’t want me to have more contact with him.”

 Lan followed Henryk and said belatedly.

 The old hunter did not refute this, but nodded straightforwardly.

"Just like what I told you in the chapel, you should not come into contact with the complicated forces of Yharnan. Although I agree with Walter's hunting philosophy and have had many good cooperations with him, he is also a human being like you. "Outlander"

Henric said as he glanced around alertly.

"But it has nothing to do with whether he is a good guy or not. He is a persistent person who will tell any hunter he meets for the first time about his hunting philosophy and hopes that the other party will join the alliance. You have to leave the mud pit of Yharnam eventually, so it's best Don’t have anything to do with any of this.”

Henry pulled Lan and hurried away from Walter. This kind of care and care was close to treating him as a young man who was not familiar with the world.

 Worried that he would be involved in trouble, worried that he would take a detour, worried that he would not be able to escape.

Although Lan En is confident in himself, he accepts such kindness.

“You just said that Walter is also a foreigner? Indeed, the clothes look like the sheriff of a big city.”

The young man pushed aside the bushes in front of him and talked as he walked.

“It’s not the Sheriff, it’s the Gendarmerie.” The old hunter corrected Lan En’s speech error.

"It is said that he and his colleagues came to Yharnam in pursuit of a beast, but they were all eaten by the beast in the end. He who survived was eaten by the beast. Such rumors are the favorite of the Yharnam people. Barbaric And the prejudiced foreigners cannot understand Yanan. Therefore, they put their flesh and blood in danger. Listen, how happy this is."

Henric couldn't help but have a sarcastic tone when telling this story.

 He was not mocking Walter, he was mocking the people of Yannam.

Lan En curled his lips: "Well, it seems you were right the night I first came here. The jokes that the Yannan people like are all in this tone."

Henric had teased Lan when he first used [Igni] to ignite the Molotov cocktail and burn the entire house into flames.

 Said that his recklessness today will become a new topic of discussion among the people of Yannan.

—

 The second half of the Forbidden Forest has become the territory of poisonous snakes.

 The venomous snakes here are so dense that they are terrifying.

Lan En was once chased by venomous snakes outside the city on the night he first came to Yanan. Although he escaped smoothly immediately, the sight of those huge venomous snakes rolling into a ball while crawling was still fresh in his memory.

 In the second half of the Forbidden Forest, this kind of tangled snakes has even become something that can be seen everywhere.

 There are also some that are even bigger and appear to be huge snakes entangled by older venomous snakes.

 In this kind of snake group, the body of one snake is often thicker than that of a human being.

The old and relaxed scales have even grown into a sliced ​​fungi, as well as the eggs of parasites.

After seeing their bodies, Lan En’s increasing sensitivity to aesthetics even made him feel a little nauseous.

 “They’re too ugly.”

The young man complained in a low voice.

 The old hunter skillfully walked in front, bypassing snake groups one after another and finding the correct passage.

This woodland was also home to Alliance hunters before, a pair of brothers who raised venomous snakes, which made Henryk very familiar with the terrain.

Hearing the young man's complaints, the old hunter rudely shot back.

 “Is there any beast in this world that is not ugly?”

The hunters of Yharnan have a hostility to wild beasts that is engraved in their bones.

 But Lan En did often see wild beasts with natural beauty in the wild.

 For the hunters of Yharnan, this is probably an unimaginable scene, right?

After bypassing large swaths of venomous snakes, Henryk took Lan to a square that looked ancient.     This is a rare stone ground in the Forbidden Forest.

 Large stones make up the ground of the square, with moss and vines climbing on the ground and stone pillars.

 After walking here, Lan could clearly feel Henrik breathing a sigh of relief under his mask.

“The most difficult walk has been completed. To be honest, even I am reluctant to enter the forbidden forest, because the road in the forest is always difficult to find, and the trees and stones look exactly the same.”

Henric took the lead to walk to the gate at the other end of the square, while turning back to Lan En.

 Walking through the Forbidden Forest is a very annoying thing for an experienced hunter like him.

But fortunately, when this door is opened, they can enter the range of Byron Weiss.

Although the academic palace has been isolated from Yanan for a long time, even his senior qualifications have been somewhat forgotten.

 But when I think about it, he should still be the one where people are thirsty for knowledge and the professors are wise and polite.

While thinking about the last time he entered Byron Weiss, Henrik's eyes couldn't help but have a look of reminiscing about the past.

 But Lan En, who was following not far behind him, suddenly shrank the vertical pupils of his eyes into a thin line!

From his perspective, when Henryk passed the shadow cast by a stone pillar, a blade of a tachi suddenly appeared from the ordinary shadow that was originally born from the moonlight!

 Dark and erratic. A tachi blade made of shadows!

The blade was coming from the side and was about to penetrate the back of the old hunter who was turning around to speak!

 “[Alder]!”

 “Bang!”

Under the astonished eyes of the old hunter, Lan En's palm emitted a burst of cold white magic light, and then the physical impact brought by the chaotic magic directly hit Henryk's body, knocking him away!

 “Stab!” The sound of a sharp blade piercing the flesh and splashing blood almost sounded at the same time as the sound of the seal striking.

It's just that the position of Henryk, who was knocked away, has changed. The blade that was supposed to penetrate his chest now just shaved off the outside of his arm, drawing out blood.

 Lan was not sure whether the enemy was the type that had an incorporeal body and only materialized at the moment of attack. After all, the shadow's appearance looks very ethereal, and it doesn't look like it can take simple physical attacks.

To be on the safe side, the target he used [Alder's Seal] to promote was Henryk.

The old hunter was pushed by the impact of the seal and rolled backwards on the ground, and then he supported the ground and stopped.

 Plenty of experience and skilled technology allowed him to understand the current situation in an instant.

 The hunter's pistol in his hand was already positioned the moment it stopped, aiming at the 'thing' that attacked him.

 The old hunter waited deliberately for a moment, and then fired with a bang, blasting out a hazy black mist on the black figure.

“It’s not a virtual body, physical attacks are effective against it at all times!”

Henric calmly informed Lan of the enemy's intelligence.

He not only adjusted his combat status in an instant, but even after rolling, he immediately understood why Lan En pushed him instead of the enemy.

 And he immediately made a tentative attack and achieved results.

After saying this, the old hunter, who was already in combat mode, narrowed his eyes slightly between the three-cornered hat and the mask.

 He didn't even look behind him, and immediately used the Yharnam Hunter's signature dodge movement.

Less than half a second later, a hot fireball passed through the afterimage left by Henryk's khaki coat and hit the stone slabs on the ground.

 Two other shadowy human figures stepped out from the shadow of the stone pillar in the distance.
