Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 583 584. Shooting

When Lan En, Geralt, and Gerd came to this hotel at the fork in the road.

They were seeing a mobile barber holding his tool cart open, his body tensed, shaving the head of a woman with a bonnet tied around her neck.

Next to her stood three men scattered.

All leather vests, light attire. They are each stroking their shaved heads.

The free barber allows them to give full play to their creativity.

Some of them had a mohawk, and some had their heads shaved.

But at the same time, apart from the various new hairstyles of these people, Lan En could also vaguely see the quality of this group of people from their subconscious postures and positions.

The men used the hotel houses to block most of the shooting directions.

They should be very familiar with the performance of various types of crossbows, so even if they subconsciously position themselves, they avoid the angles that can be threatened by crossbows of various strengths.

Based on the performance of the existing crossbows on the market, if you want to sneak attack them with cold arrows from a distance, you have to stand within their field of vision to have a feasible angle.

This is the embodiment of tactical literacy.

Geralt slightly raised a branch in front of his eyes and whispered to the side.

"Their center of gravity is on the front half of the sole of their left foot, which is the easiest position to react in time."

"Being able to maintain this state naturally during daily rest, it seems that they are indeed on the same level as the group we first met. This is a special force that has been assembled!"

Geralt's tactical thinking is different from Lan En, who has been involved in the interstellar war in [Memory Dive] for a long time.

The first thing he paid attention to was the opponent's swordsmanship level, while Lan En first noticed the shooting angle.

This is caused by differences in understanding and experience of war, and it cannot be said that one is better than the other.

"Then let's go now." Gerd looked at Geralt and Lan with questioning eyes, and his palms eagerly touched the hilt of the steel sword on his back.

He had just acquired the Valyrian steel sword, and he had yet to use it against a worthy opponent.

Lan nodded to both of them.

——

The barber is making patterns on the shaved half of the woman's head as per the woman's request.

This woman should be a mixed race, one-quarter elven blood.

The barber was anxiously imagining how these guys who killed a gangster with ease would treat him after the incident.

On the other hand, he noticed the corners of the woman's mouth that opened when she laughed.

There are no canine teeth in the mouth, which is proof of the elven blood.

According to the elves, canine teeth are an incompletely evolved savage feature.

But now, this woman who does not have "barbaric characteristics", the actions she makes are not civilized.

There was a snoring sound in her throat and nose, and then she tilted her head and spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm mixed with snot into the mud on the ground.

This was already the countless mouthfuls she had spit out.

People who take anesthetic powder will have uncontrollable secretion of saliva and nasal discharge.

The jar of high-quality anesthetic powder these people found from the body of the 'Long-tusked Rat' was actually consumed by them in less than an hour!

They were highly excited because of this, their hands and feet moved abnormally quickly, and their eyes were blurred and shining.

The barber is really scared.

Although this group of people agreed to leave intact after providing services, everyone knows one thing -

Even demon spirits won’t believe what someone addicted to anesthetic powder says!

These people can lie without blinking even in the temple!

But the mixed-race woman under the barber's razor spit out thick phlegm and runny nose again, and looked up in the direction outside the hotel courtyard.

Her eyes, which were a little nervous due to drug addiction, were confused at first, and then suddenly widened as if she saw clearly!

"Aha! Two 'guests' are here!"

The three men standing scattered in the yard suddenly changed their movements.

The originally sloppy stance became sharp and threatening due to the tightened muscles.

Their positions did not change, but their palms were already resting on the hilts of the swords at their waists.

Nervous eyes stared at the two figures who were gradually approaching.

They were two figures carrying two long swords like bows and arrows.

If it were before that incident that spread across the continent, they guys from the south might just be confused and laughable about it. But now, anyone who cares will understand what kind of person these two swords represent.

"It seems like we got lucky today? First we got a can of high-quality anesthetic powder for free, and now there's a target coming to our door?"

Brass, who killed an entire gang with a sword, showed a big smile.

As the leader, the man in the cloth hat also took a lot of narcotic powder, but he was still rational.

"The premise is that they are really demon hunters, and not swindlers who want to deceive farmers in this chaotic world so that they can have more girls in the village and ask for more coins."

After the man in the cloth hat finished speaking, he tilted his head and spit out a mixture of thick phlegm and snot. He changed his tone to a less hostile tone and shouted to the two figures who were still approaching.

"Who is coming? If you are a friend, you might as well come over and drink a glass of vodka. The war is chaotic, and it is not easy to meet good people. I'll treat you."

The atmosphere is very strange, both inside and outside the hotel courtyard.

So much so that the barber stopped subconsciously.

Gerd and Geralt kept walking.

The bearded demon hunter had a crack in his thick beard: "Vodka? I like it."

"But at least, it can't be vodka with other additives."

The witcher walked close enough that the people in the courtyard could see the silver pendants around their necks.

So the 'friendly atmosphere' that was originally pretended disappeared in an instant.

The moment when the strange eyes of the anesthetic powder met the cat eyes of the demon hunters.

"Collapse!"*4

The sound of a bowstring playing! All four hand crossbows were activated with long preparation!

The short but still full of lethality of the crossbow arrows went straight towards the target!

But surprisingly, no one was hit by the four rapid-fire attacks!

The two demon hunters quickly dodged sideways, which was not unusual.

After the story of the witcher spread widely, people have become somewhat accepting of this once shocking behavior.

But the people on the opposite side actually responded to the sudden crossbow arrows in the space of a few seconds!

Gede's crossbow arrow was fired at the woman who was least able to move, but the elf-mixed woman turned around with a grin.

Although the razor in the frightened barber's hand made a gash on her forehead, the crossbow arrow heading towards her pierced the barber's work cart with a 'dou' sound.

The actions of the other person are even beyond the scope of ordinary people.

Helis, who was sitting with Brass drinking, used a dagger that was close to a dagger to directly knock down the crossbow arrow fired by Geralt in mid-air with a flash of silver light!
