Soul echo

Chapter 3 Encountering Aberrants

A cloud of blood burst out from the giant eagle's left wing, but compared to its huge body, this injury is really nothing to mention.

The hoarse and distorted scream turned into a wave of air and blasted towards the ground. The warrior and the demon hunter jumped to one side respectively, avoiding danger.

The wind that rolled the dust hit the two of them, but they were unmoved, and adjusted their postures almost at the same time, ready to fight.

The giant eagle was flying in the sky, and the demon hunter shot its right wing again, turned his head and smiled at Zhong Ye, "Hey, come and help me!"

Amos backhanded the pistol back into his waist holster, Zhong Ye frowned slightly, and sighed helplessly: "Aren't you afraid that I'm also an abyss monster?"

"It's a big deal, one fights two!"

The demon hunter laughed and ran towards Zhong Ye. The giant eagle swung its wings and rushed down from the air.

Zhong Ye straddled his legs, put the long sword aside, and lowered his arms. At the moment when Amos jumped up, his arms suddenly exerted force and swung upward.

The boots stepped heavily on the warrior's palm, and the witcher, who was supposed to fall, soared into the air again.

Chanting a mantra in his mouth, Amos raised his left hand to hold the void, as if pulling something, and the light of the seal lit up on the back of his hand.

The giant eagle's body sank suddenly, frightened it hurriedly flapped its wings, but found that the muscles of the wings were as stiff as stones and could not move.

Amos let out a roar, the muscles in his left arm tensed instantly, and the blue veins hidden under his sleeve kept beating, pulling the chain of nothingness, pulling the giant eagle from the air, and making it fall to the ground.

- Bang!

The huge body fell to the ground, stirring up waves of smoke and dust. Zhong Ye blocked his face with his left hand, dragging half of his sword to charge.

The closer he got to the giant eagle, the more anger and hatred came from nowhere, the more overwhelming his heart, the anger rose, and the resentment boiled.

Before the giant eagle fell, he memorized its posture when it fell, and calculated its movements after it fell, so he broke through the dust and fog, raised half of his sword, and cut off the blade without hesitation.

The blade of the sword sliced ​​through the misty dust, and his eyes suddenly opened up, and a wing covered with feathers appeared in his field of vision.

The half-handed sword's edge broke Zheng Yu's connection, and the down feathers and half down feathers were powerless to stop it. Seeing that the long sword passed halfway and directly sank into the muscle of the giant eagle's right wing, Zhong Ye immediately frowned.

——This kind of injury is not enough!

Just as Zhong Ye thought, before he could pull out his long sword, the demon hunter's seal lost its effect, and the power circulated in the giant eagle again, causing it to flap its wings and struggle screamingly.

With half of the sword stuck in the muscle of the giant eagle's right wing, Zhong Ye held the hilt tightly with both hands, and his body was naturally swayed by this powerful force.

He didn't panic, let his body be shaken, and used his strength to swing his legs under the giant eagle's wings, pedal hard, and pulled out the long sword before the giant eagle swung its wings.

Relying on his powerful waist and abdomen muscles, Zhong Ye turned over in the air and landed lightly. When he looked up, he saw a wing sweeping towards him.

Too far to the right, the two claws of the giant eagle to the left, but he had no choice.

The warrior rolled on the spot, the huge wings barely swept across from above, and then he heard the voice of the witcher from the back of the giant eagle.

"Uh oh..."

There seemed to be excitement and excitement in the voice, anyway, Zhong Ye didn't hear much fear from it.

When he got up, the sharp claws did not arrive as promised, and the giant eagle became extremely manic, constantly shaking its body, and even flapping its wings, stirring up another wave of dust, and then soared into the sky.

It's just that before it reached the sky, a burst of flames exploded from its back, and the figure of Amos also fell from the sky, and the smoke and dust curled up his temple hair. He slowly drew out the pistol, raised his eyebrows at Zhong Ye, "Pleasant cooperation."

Zhong Ye didn't say anything, but turned to look at the giant eagle.

The flames failed to ignite the monster, but completely tore one of its wings, causing it to fall again with thick smoke.

Zhong Ye and Amos charged at the same time, their figures disappeared in place as if teleporting, smashed through the dust and fog, jumped up one after another before approaching the giant eagle, and cut out their sword blades in the air.

The sword edge cut into the muscle texture of the giant eagle, and the long sword was dragged by them, plowing two long slits on the giant eagle's back.

"Jump!" the witcher suddenly yelled.

Without thinking, Zhong Ye jumped to the ground together with Amos.

Behind them, the giant eagle that should have been seriously injured suddenly stood up proudly, its feathers stood up like steel needles, its muscles and skin continued to swell, bone spurs burst out of its body, and it became out of eagle shape in just a few seconds.

Amos raised his pistol, but shrugged his shoulders at Zhong Ye, "Look, aberrants like this, if they can't win, they'll play tricks."

boom! boom! boom!
The three bullets were fired in a zigzag shape, forming a pentagram with the previous two bullets.

The demon hunter took back his pistol and long sword, and said with a playful smile, "Can I do you a favor?"

Zhong Ye waved his half-handed sword, looked up at the deformed body, "You trust me that much?"

"No more than ten seconds, I believe you can."

Before he finished speaking, Zhong Ye rushed over.

The original giant eagle has now turned into a two-story-high monster covered with bone spurs. Its muscles are exposed, its head has disappeared, and various eyes have grown out of its body. very disgusting.

Facing such an unprecedented monster, Zhong Ye didn't feel fear, only anger in his heart, but strangely, he could still remain calm.

The muscles on the monster's body were wriggling. In order to attack Zhong Ye, it grew several limbs of different lengths and thicknesses.

One of the limbs was like a stick, slender and long without half a joint, and the other was full of muscles, but it looked extremely heavy, so it could only hang down on the ground and drag it slowly.

Several limbs gathered from all directions as if they were hugging each other. Zhong Ye didn't dare to touch its sharp edge, so he turned sideways over one of the limbs. broken.

Suddenly, several bone spurs wrapped in skin were shot out by the deformed body, Zhong Ye dodged in time, but was still scratched by two bone spurs.

The wound is numb and itchy, you don't need to think about it, there must be something wrong!

"What if I get hurt?"

While shouting, Zhong Ye stabbed out the long sword, piercing an eyeball, and attracted the attention of the deformed body.

At this time, the deformed body grew many tentacles, whipping the air around it and making a loud explosion.

The tentacles were ejected, Zhong Ye somersaulted back, took a glance at the wound on his arm, and saw countless granulation sprouts growing out of it, wriggling continuously.

"Help you heal later!"

The demon hunter shouted loudly, hastily congealing the spell.

Zhong Ye was fighting with the mutant. Although the earth's martial arts were useless for this monster, he still firmly grabbed the mutant's attention by virtue of his powerful body functions and senses.

He had never felt that 'ten seconds' was so long, but when the time was up, a pentagram appeared on the deformed body.

"Sealing seal." Amos' voice came from behind Zhong Ye, and he walked slowly, and took out a silver sphere and a needle filled with blood from his waist pocket.

The activities of the aberrant body were completely sealed, its time seemed to be stopped, and its movements were frozen in the last second.

The demon hunter handed the needle to Zhong Ye, "This is my blood, injected into the wound, it can alleviate your abyssal infection, and then cure it. Now I want to get rid of this mutant first."

Zhong Ye glanced at it, then injected blood into the wound with his backhand, and asked curiously, "Are all the mutants so strong?"

"No, this one is about to become an abyssal monster." Amos approached the deformed body, squeezed the silver ball with his palm, the ball softened, and a little liquid leaked out.

He hummed a ditty and used the liquid to draw runes on the deformed body. The eyeballs on the deformed body turned and focused on Amos.

After injecting the demon hunter's blood, the granulation buds on Zhong Ye's wound withered, and the numbness and itching were relieved a lot.

At this moment, Zhong Ye narrowed his eyes after thinking about it, "Ten seconds?"

"hey-hey."

Amos carefully put the half-sized silver ball back into his waist pocket, "It's not half a minute yet..."

As they spoke, the aberration dwindled under the influence of signs and runes, shrinking in size.

In the end, the deformed body was condensed into a palm-sized sculpture. The witcher put it away in a cloth bag. Although the volume was reduced, the weight was only reduced by half. If it wasn't for the magical effect of "ignoring weight", He really couldn't bring it back.

"Let's go." Amos put the bag close to his body. Although this is dangerous, it can also ensure that the deformed body cannot break the seal.

"You don't care about your horse anymore?" Zhong Ye tilted his head.

"Rapunzel will come back by itself... Well, isn't it coming back now?"

Following Amos' line of sight, Zhong Ye saw a horse running towards them in the distance, and couldn't help sighing: "Yes, not only did I come back, but I also brought back a group of enemies."

The demon hunter smiled and patted the warrior on the shoulder, and said in relief: "They are much easier to deal with than the one just now. People in our business need to learn to maintain a good attitude, otherwise they will be crushed by the pressure sooner or later."

"But I didn't intend to join your business..."

Having said that, Zhong Ye still gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, and together with Amos went forward to slaughter the deformed group.
