Wizard, I have a different world

Since the discovery of the black stone vein under Black City, Black City has become the private territory of Grand Duke Taidal.

The cruel and crazy Grand Duke Taidal forced all the people in the city to become miners to mine black stone for him.

Those who can leave have already left.

Those who cannot leave are also trying to leave.

Such a big city has become a deserted city in a short period of time, and it is inevitable that some good things will be left behind.

The once valuable handicrafts, precious metals, etc., are far less valuable than meat strips that can fill their stomachs in the eyes of people who have problems eating and drinking.

Carl walked around the market and exchanged the remaining meat strips for a few "exquisite gadgets".

He was born in an aristocratic family, participated in various exhibitions, and had a certain appreciation of luxury goods.

The few things he got should be able to exchange for a lot of money.

"It's time to go!"

Wrapping the things in linen and carrying them on his back, Carl once again told Cologne to pay attention to the movement of the breathing method, and then stepped away.

‘Thirty gold coins can buy a nice middle-class house in Signo City. If you choose a remote area, you may even be able to buy a single-family house.’

‘Hmm…’

‘Although the atmosphere in Black City is depressing and there are many inconveniences, it is very convenient to make money.’

Touching the bulging package on his back, Carl’s mouth curled up subconsciously, and he was a little excited.

‘In addition to making money, it is more convenient to obtain breathing methods here than in another world. At least there is a way.’

‘It’s not like…’

“Hmm?”

While he was thinking about it, Carl’s eyes shrank, and the whole person suddenly rushed forward, and at the same time, he grasped the sword and swung it back like a conditioned reflex.

“Shua!”

“Puff!”

The sound of breaking through the air and tearing cloth sounded.

Carl felt a pain in his back, and the broadsword seemed to be slashing on something. The things in the package were scattered all over the ground, and the heavy clock made a loud bang.

Without time to check if the things were damaged, he turned over and stood up from the ground, turned around and held the broadsword across his body.

Fierce Wind Sword Technique - Iron Gate Style!

"Shua!"

A black shadow rushed forward, as fast as an arrow shot from a bow, and hit the broadsword with great force.

"Dang..."

"Hmm!"

Carl groaned, staggered back two steps, and the attacking object was knocked away by the broadsword.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the true face of the black shadow finally appeared in front of him.

It was a dog-like creature, and its black hair was easily overlooked in the dark sky.

It was it that attacked him from behind just now, and fortunately the package on his back and the soft armor on his body did not hurt him.

Dog-like?

Carl's eyes twitched, and he subconsciously looked at the street.

Sure enough!

The corpse on the ground when he came here had disappeared at some point, and there was a half-dead creature in front of him.

I was careless!

I was so happy that I forgot to observe the surrounding environment. You know, this is the Black City where people can die at any time.

Half-dead creatures are the specialty of the Black City.

It is said that the Black Stone Mine contains "dead air". As the mine is excavated, the air leaks out, and the corpses infected by the dead air will be "resurrected" and become half-dead creatures.

Not only corpses,

If living people stay in the mine for a long time, they will be distorted and mutated, completely losing their minds and turning into monsters.

After the mutation, the speed and strength increase greatly, and they don't feel pain, only have the instinct to attack living things.

It is similar to the impression of zombies, but much more flexible than zombies.

I don't know how many "half-dead creatures" are hiding in the Black City, which makes this city more dangerous and terrifying.

"Woo..."

The "hound" covered with rotten flesh opened its mouth, revealing its hideous fangs, and its eyes were as red as blood.

"Swish!"

It pounced again, and its speed was still amazing.

But this time Carl was prepared, slipped his feet and dodged sideways, and at the same time chopped it down fiercely.

"Puff!"

The broadsword cut through the fur of the "hound", penetrated into the rotten flesh, and collided with the bones inside.

The impact caused the 'hound' to roll to the ground, and Carl also felt his arms go numb, with a warning in his heart.

'Such a fast speed, and not bad strength, the key is..., this thing has no vital points of living things. '

The 'hound' that was hit by the sword just rolled over and stood up as if nothing had happened.

The crack extending from the back to the abdomen seemed to have no effect on it.

"Hah!"

Carl shouted in a low voice, exerted force on his feet and rushed forward, and the broadsword in his hand rolled up a gust of wind.

Rage!

This is a killer move in the fierce wind sword technique, which can use the power of the human body to strengthen the sword and increase the attack power.

In order to practice this move, Carl spent a lot of energy.

The half-dead creature is not tired, but he is not. If he can't fight quickly, he will die when his physical strength is exhausted.

So after a brief thought, he took the lead in launching an attack.

"Woo..."

The 'hound' whimpered, and seemed to have sensed the threat of this move, and jumped to the side with all four limbs on the ground.

It can also be seen from here that the half-dead creatures in the Black City have not completely lost their minds. At least they have retained some of their instincts before they died, and know how to avoid danger and seek good fortune.

"Dang!"

The broadsword slashed the ground, making a crisp collision sound, but strangely it did not leave a deep mark.

Fake move!

Carl's seemingly fierce attack was just to expose the flaws of the "hound" and take the opportunity to raise his arm to launch a surprise attack.

But seeing his arm tremble slightly, a rapid recoil force made his body lean back.

Sleeve arrow!

"Shua!"

"Shua!"

Two shadows flew out from his sleeves, and in a flash, they penetrated the throat and front leg joints of the ‘hound’.

Cologne did not exaggerate. The power of the sleeve arrow was extremely amazing, and it was difficult for the knights and servants to avoid it at close range.

But this level was far from enough to kill a half-dead creature, and at most it would make the ‘hound’ lose balance.

“Hmph!”

Carl’s eyes turned red, and the whole person rushed forward suddenly, and the broadsword in his hand actually swung out several afterimages.

Combat skills - Fierce Wind Slash!

Knight-level swordsmanship has a matching combat skill that can maximize the lethality of swordsmanship.

Generally speaking.

Only knights and servants and even knights can master combat skills.

Because combat skills are very complicated and require high physical fitness, it is difficult for ordinary people to master them.

Of course, there are exceptions.

Just like Carl.

With the help of that mysterious place, he has absolute rationality and subtle control over his body, and he mastered this style of Fierce Wind Slash.

The two afterimages and the broadsword crossed and fell in the air, and the hound's forward body suddenly froze.

The next moment.

Several fine cracks appeared on the hound's body, and then scattered into pieces all over the ground.

In this situation, even a half-dead creature would die.

"Huh..."

Carl exhaled a long breath, and his hands holding the sword trembled slightly, as if he couldn't even hold the broadsword.

"Go!"

At this time, he was almost exhausted, and his heart was full of fear. He bent down and wrapped up the scattered things on the ground and rushed forward.

When he returned to his "residence", closed the door and lowered the railing, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Pah!"

Patting his forehead lightly, Carl spoke after realizing it:

"Half-dead creatures will leave some things after death, which can be exchanged for black stone. I forgot to check it just now."

Having said that, it is impossible for him to go back.

After calming down, I passed through the mysterious place and returned to my residence in Signo City. Before I could pack up the things I had gained from this trip, a familiar voice came from the living room.

"Uncle, why is he here?"

Please collect it!
