Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 429 428. Bear and Gryphon

"We'd better go our separate ways."

In the dark underground mausoleum, the humid and dirty air was mixed with the choking smell of dust and some kind of putrid stench. It seemed that even the thick stone walls were leaking water.

Although the royal tombs use large blocks of tightly stacked marble, they are spacious and solemn. But now it seems that the sudden heavy rain some time ago really ravaged this place.

In the mausoleum, two pairs of shining cat eyes looked at each other cautiously and alertly.

continued the measured voice.

"Although I have never been in contact with you, I have heard of your name. To put it simply, it is not good."

With a "sting" sound, the sparks brought by the flint ignited a torch wrapped in oilcloth, and the smoke of burning inferior grease began to spread with the light.

The person holding the torch was a man wearing medium-weight leather armor.

It was the cooked leather of dragon creatures, including pterodactyls, gliding lizards, fork-tailed dragons, etc. It can effectively improve the circulation and transformation efficiency of chaotic magic power.

For witchers, it means increasing the number of spells.

His face could be vaguely seen in the flickering firelight. He had a beard on his face, and under the thick beard were the scars left after the chickenpox healed.

For a witcher who cannot get sick, this is a strange mark.

Hanging around his neck was a sharp gryphon head pendant.

"We have all received this task, and we all want to earn this money, but this does not mean that I will trust you. Your names make me unable to trust you. Take this, this is what I can help you with. A little help. After that, we each rely on our own abilities."

After saying that, the demon hunter of the Griffin School took out another torch, lit it and handed it to the other side.

The firelight swayed closer, illuminating another person.

It was a tall man wearing heavy armor. He seemed to be nearly 1.9 meters tall and strong.

He didn't have a beard, but anyone who saw him would think: If this man had a beard, he would definitely look like a rude man.

The heavy armor was similar in appearance to the Advanced Bear School armor worn by Lan En, except that the protective parts were thinner and had fewer parts.

——That is an enhanced level Bear School armor.

Around his neck was a snarling bear head pendant exactly like Lann's.

"I'm fine, thanks for the torch."

The demon hunter of the Bear School, Gerd of the Arc Coast, shrugged and said indifferently.

As a member of the Bear School, he is used to having a reputation similar to that of the Cat School.

Although he retained his feelings under the mutation of the Bear School's mutation formula, people have to believe him if he says it.

Demon hunters are professional hunters who walk on the edge of a knife. The cost of trusting a similar person with a bad reputation in an already dangerous mission is so high that they don't even think of trying. There will be.

Sure enough, although the demon hunter of the Griffin School looked a little surprised after Gede thanked him, he finally chose to cautiously distance himself from Gede face to face.

It wasn't until the tiny light from the torch was about to be submerged in the vast darkness of the mausoleum that he turned around and strode away.

This is evident from the reputation of the Bear School among demon hunters.

That ‘gryphon’ seems to be called Cohen?

Gede held the torch and shook his head in the empty and damp tomb.

The gryphon's hatred and distrust of the 'bear' has a historical origin.

Because the original split of the Demon Hunter Order was directly caused by the attack on the "simple chivalry" by the "ruthless self-interested people" headed by Anahad, the founder of the Bear School.

The group of demon hunters with the "simple chivalry spirit" in the original Demon Hunter Order formed the later Griffin School.

Just look at Cohen and you will know that when faced with the hated and distrustful Bear School, he would even take the initiative to prepare a torch and give it away.

Not to mention the generally indifferent demon hunters, even ordinary people can be considered to be quite decent.

I hope this griffon with "quite a character" will not be so unlucky.

Gede held up the torch and thought so.

At the same time, he also began to explore the depths of the tomb.

Many of humanity's great cities were built on the remains of elven cities.

Just like the sewer system in Novigrad, it is rumored that carriages can even pass through it. However, most human rulers do not care about such facilities. They are traces left over from the elven era.

Sintra is no exception, but they built the underground part of the city's ruins into a royal mausoleum.

"Okay, the mausoleum transformed from the elven ruins is really bullshit."

Gede stepped forward through the mud and puddles, holding a torch and stepping forward.

As he moved forward, he tilted his head and spat, muttering with an ugly expression.

According to experience, there will be many magic mechanisms and traps in the elven ruins, and the mausoleum is a place easily occupied by monsters. Both places are troubles in the eyes of demon hunters.

And now this task, in Gede's eyes, is equivalent to two pieces of shit coming together.

"Damn it, that palace steward didn't tell me that!"

Gede's left hand held a torch to provide brightness for his vision, and his right hand slowly pulled out a sharp silver sword from behind.

There was a layer of faint yellow oil on the sword, which was obviously coated with sword oil.

But Gede's face was still ugly.

Because the [Evil Spirit Oil] on his sword was aimed at demon spirits, but what appeared in front of him...

"Wow wow wow!"*N

A whirring sound suddenly sounded from the dirty pit, and then several blue palms with scales and webbed fingers emerged from the pit!

Immediately afterwards, a tall, stooped old woman emerged from the pit.

These are a bunch of water ghosts and a swamp witch!

"Raining? How the hell can you do this when it rains?!"

The corners of Gede's mouth twitched.

But he also understood at this time that it was impossible to avoid the war.

In the dark and unfamiliar terrain, the consequences of losing yourself may be worse than fighting monsters.

Therefore, the demon hunters of the Bear School did not even have time to temporarily put down their torches and put a [Quen's Seal] on themselves.

He could only use this armor to face the monster.

"Bang!"

Taking a pre-emptive strike, Gede kicked the water ghost away from him before he could stand upright from the pit.

He must prevent monsters from forming a swarm advantage, otherwise his enhanced armor will not be able to withstand a few scratches.

Then the silver sword in his right hand, following the movement of his waist, arms, and wrists, was thrown sideways like a whip!

With a "swish" sound, the silver sword made a big gash in the neck of a water ghost.

The foul-smelling monster blood spurted out, and the water ghost rolled and twitched like a fish in the mire.

After instantly killing a water ghost, Gede immediately waved the torch behind him twice.

The screaming water ghosts originally wanted to rush forward, but the fear of flames made them hesitate.

And with this little time, Gede repositioned his center of gravity caused by the swing of the sword like a whip.

The swordsmanship of the Bear School has always been good at this.

And just when the monster group and the demon hunter were in confrontation again, the roar of another group of monsters rang out in the dark distance.
