In the Blade
Chapter 67: The War of Top Predators
When two top predators go to war, who will die first?
No one knows the answer. After all, this question is too vague. They are two top predators, but their tonnage, strength, fighting style, and even fighting ideas are all unknown. In this situation of knowing nothing, how can we judge whether these two top predators will win or lose?
But no matter who wins or loses, there is always one thing that can be determined.
That is, all the other creatures around them will definitely die.
"Hehehehehe——"
"Kill kill kill kill kill——"
Another round of desperate fighting. This is the countless number of times the two sides have fought, or fifty times, or a hundred times. Anyway, no one will remember this number, and even the two sides will not care about this.
After all, a life-and-death fight does not allow for any distraction.
"Zheng——"
The blades of thirteen bone scimitars crossed with six short blades with blood stains, and both sides were unscathed for a while.
But after a fight, neither side had the intention to turn back and fight again.
Instead, they seized the time to kill the grassland fleeing soldiers in front of them.
Thirteen bone scimitars swept across, and more than a dozen grassland fleeing soldiers who had just gathered together were torn into pieces by the bloody monster bird, and Du Chengfeng was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. The short blade was clamped between his fingers like a sharp claw. With just one pounce, he cut off more than twenty heads.
Not enough, not enough.
If you want to kill the other party, it is still not enough to rely on this accumulation.
"Next time we meet, I will definitely eat you!"
"It should be me who eats you."
After the monster bird took off, Du Chengfeng also turned around, and the two sides left.
Just like it has always been.
The bloody monster bird could not kill Du Chengfeng, who was full of evil spirits, and Du Chengfeng could not reach the bloody monster bird flying in the air, which directly led to both sides starting to constantly forage for food and constantly looking for any target that could be used for killing.
As long as they kill more, they can become stronger and kill the mortal enemy.
They all think so.
But as their prey, the grassland fleeing soldiers of the Qingyang tribe were limited after all.
"I should have known not to clear the field earlier..."
In a bandit stronghold hidden in the mountains, Du Chengfeng, who had returned to rest, was sighing.
It was indeed a pity. After all, there were not many living people in the entire Jizhou area at the moment. Jizhen had been killed by the grassland soldiers when the city was broken by He Xiqing, and the villages and towns below had already fled south at the beginning of the war. As for the swordsmen and rangers left by Governor Liu as a civilian resistance force... they were driven away by Du Chengfeng himself.
Facts have proved that although the swordsman named Cui Yuan had a more psychotic mind, his execution ability was outstanding. When he was asked to clear the field, he really drove away all the swordsmen and rangers, leaving no one behind.
This also directly led to the fact that even if Du Chengfeng wanted to kill a few people in the name of a duel, he could not find an opponent.
"Brother Du, what's wrong?"
Carpenter Li, who came to deliver food, also heard Du Chengfeng's sigh and couldn't help but comfort him.
"If, I mean, if it really doesn't work, you should run quickly, go to the south, go to Yanzhou, if it really doesn't work, go to Jiankang, go to the capital... There will always be someone who can deal with that monster, there will always be..."
"You think too much."
Du Chengfeng shook his head repeatedly.
It's not that he hasn't thought about escaping, but now the so-called Dachen in the south has even the border troops being beaten by the monster - as we all know, the border troops guarding the border are often the most capable teams. Even the border troops can't stop the monster, how can we expect the southern part to be able to stop this thing?
What's more, this monster can become braver and stronger with each battle.
Now is the best opportunity. He and the monster can't kill anyone. In other words, the monster can't continue to grow at least for the time being.
And now, the two sides are competing in speed and familiarity with the surrounding environment.
Whoever can first let the sword and weapon evil spirit on his body overwhelm the opponent will be the final winner.
"I'll go out and take a look. I remember there are still a few robbers' dens..."
As he said this, Du Chengfeng took the food and ate a few mouthfuls hastily.
And Li Mujiang also saw the scales vaguely exposed between Du Chengfeng's sleeves.
"Brother Du, what are you..."
Li Mujiang grabbed Du Chengfeng's wrist. He couldn't believe what he saw.
"How come there are scales on your hand... on your arm too?"
"Ah, it doesn't matter."
Du Chengfeng pulled down his sleeves, but didn't care much.
"If you want to defeat the monster, it's natural to become a monster... Although I don't know why I became like this, it's okay, it feels pretty good."
As he spoke, Du Chengfeng gathered his evil spirit, which made his eyes as red as two ghost lights in the dim cave.
"How about it, very handsome?"
"..."
Li Mujiang didn't feel handsome at all. It was as terrifying as facing some large cats.
"Oh, by the way, this is for you."
Without looking at those eyes, Carpenter Li took out a well-carved handle from his back.
After getting the handle, Du Chengfeng's eyes lit up, and then he took out the broken axe from the saddle bag, knocked out the wood chips inside, and put it on the handle.
Yes, the axe is convenient in this respect. Even if the handle is broken, you can still use it with another one.
But it can only be used.
It may be a good tool for chopping wood, but Du Chengfeng can no longer feel the cold air from Mobei.
Just like the two swords.
"I'd better leave it with you."
With a sigh, Du Chengfeng handed the axe to Carpenter Li.
Then, he picked up the two swords from his side.
Du Chengfeng had been repairing the two swords since he came back from the attack on the Qingyang tribe. The Yang clan members provided the tools and set up a forging workshop in the robbers' den. With the half-baked forging skills of a grassland blacksmith, he also reconnected the two broken blades.
But I don't know if it was because the craftsmanship was too simple or because his skills were too poor. The two long swords had been reconnected, but there was still no movement.
Even if Du Chengfeng took them out to kill people, it would be the same.
Even worse.
Although they were stained with blood as before, the two swords became more and more dull. If it weren't for the weight in his hand reminding him that the two swords had not changed much, Du Chengfeng would even think that he was holding two crudely made pieces of iron.
When they chopped down the fleeing soldiers on the grassland, the two sharp blades that could easily cut through bones and flesh broke on the spot with a clang.
It was as if the two swords were already dead.
Although Du Chengfeng also felt that it was a bit inappropriate to describe the sword as "dead", the feeling these two swords gave him was indeed a lifeless look.
In the past, the heavy sword always wanted to cut something and wanted cheap wine, while the horse-breaking long sword was always entangled in those difficult-to-pronounce names of moves, or let Du Chengfeng recite the remaining few lines of poetry - Du Chengfeng once thought that this was quite troublesome, a sword was a sword, just need to chop it.
But now, when he holds two swords, no one will bother him anymore.
"I... go out for a while."
Du Chengfeng put down the two swords and stood up.
Fortunately, after adapting to the evil spirit entering his body, it doesn't matter if he uses other weapons, just like the 17 short swords on his body. Although they are ordinary goods that have not killed many people, when he uses them, a set of close combat is also extremely sharp.
If there must be a problem, it is that he has killed too many people.
Even if Li Mujiang didn't remind him, he would have seen the changes in his body. Obviously, excessive use of evil spirits is not without cost. A large amount of evil spirits poured into his body, not only making his spirit become a tight string, but also his body itself is developing more and more in the direction of inhumanity.
"So, what is this so-called evil spirit of swords and weapons?"
Du Chengfeng can't quite understand what this strange power is now.
This thing seems to be able to enhance combat effectiveness, can make people chop out huge sword lights, can make weapons use various strange abilities, and even cause the body itself to deform - it sounds like the legendary magical internal force that can do everything.
But compared to the so-called magical internal force, this strange power is more fierce and bloody.
It can even turn people into non-humans.
At least he finally knew why He Xiqing became like that, after all, he is also changing in some unknown direction.
"At that time, will I be as crazy as He Xiqing?"
Du Chengfeng frowned.
I don't know, he can't think of the answer to this question.
But for now, this is not something that needs to be considered.
"Ah hehehe——"
The piercing howl resounded through the sky, and thirteen huge bone scimitars instantly dug a big hole in the mountain.
And Du Chengfeng, Carpenter Li, and the villagers of Yangjiabao who were hiding here were also exposed.
"Hey, hehe! I found you!"
In midair, the monster named He Xiqing flapped its wings.
"You saved a lot of delicious food!"
"I'll eat you first."
He reached into his outer robe with both hands, and when he came out, he had six sharp knives.
Clamping the knives between his fingers like claws, Du Chengfeng lowered his body, revealing his increasingly sharp canine teeth.
Then, he pounced out like a hungry tiger.
The second update is here, everyone go to bed early.
