Russell feels that his condition is getting worse and worse, and the arm wielding the silver sword is getting heavier and heavier.
Just as he managed to resist the blow from a branch, another branch was pulled from top to bottom. He saw that he could not dodge, and he felt the strong wind above his head. It was foreseeable that this blow would definitely kill him.
Russell felt extremely uncomfortable:
Am I going to die here today?
They say that demon hunters don't live long. I didn't believe in evil in the past, but I didn't expect that it would be my turn.
It's a pity for my junior brother, he is still so young, and as an elder brother, I didn't protect him.
His eyes were fixed on the branch that was about to be pulled off, but unexpectedly, the branch as thick as a python only stopped a few inches above his forehead.
"What's going on?"
Russell took a tentative step back. The branches were motionless and seemed to be slowly withering.
"Why does it smell like smoke?"
Russell followed the smell and looked up, only to see a fire burning on the crown of a 20-meter-old tree. A fiery red figure was inserting a long sword in his hand and sliding up the trunk of the tree.
The anthropomorphic face of Leshen below has a ferocious expression, and it is driving its arms composed of several branches to attack the fiery red figure, but it cannot hit the agile figure on the tree trunk at all.
"Let me tell you, it turns out that the totem is hidden in the canopy of the tree. This Dick must have drunk [Blizzard Potion]. No wonder he is so fast. It seems that nothing will happen to me."
Russell felt relaxed and simply dropped his sword and sat down, quietly watching Dick's performance.
Dick quickly slid to the side of Leshen, waving the blade and moving around him like a ghost.
As the tree crown was burned, Leshen lost its rebirth power and its mana was greatly reduced. In addition, Dick was in good condition at this time, and it only lasted for a moment before reaching the end of its strength.
The left hand spurted out a large piece of Flames again, hitting Leshen's anthropomorphic face. Before the latter could cry out, Dick stabbed out several swords in a flash of lightning.
After a few breaths, the place became extremely quiet except for the crackling sound of the burning tree.
Dick looked outside and saw that the birdcage had disappeared, and at the same time, a prompt to kill Leshen came on the panel.
My mind relaxed, the whole world became hazy, then gradually became clearer, and the wonderful feeling just now disappeared.
"The effect of [Blizzard] disappeared. Although it only lasted for a minute, it seemed to be just right."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dick's eyes went dark, and severe pain spread throughout his body.
"Dick, lie down and rest quickly. [Blizzard Potion] is to stimulate your body's full potential. It places a heavy load on your body. Yes, just lie down like this, and the pain will stop after a while."
Russell stood up slowly and spoke a reminder beside Dick.
After a while, Dick no longer hurt, and he knew that this was [Intermediate Self-Healing] taking effect.
Regardless of the hunger that consumes a lot of energy, Dick started to view the panel:
Kill White Wolf X26 and get Energy Points X60.
Kill Leshen X1 and get Energy Points X60.
Complete the commission and get Energy Points X60. This time you get Energy Points X180. The current total is Energy Points X300.
"Not bad." Dick smiled.
"Dick, why are you giggling?"
"Nothing."
Dick stood up and saw that the big tree more than ten meters in front of him had been burned to ashes. Fortunately, the other surrounding trees were not close, otherwise it would not have caused a bush fire.
After Leshen was eliminated, the surrounding temperature also dropped.
Dick looked at Russell: "What a hearty battle!"
"Really? But I always feel that my demon hunting this time is not very satisfying. I seem to have only killed a few White Wolf and crows."
Dick patted Russell on the shoulder. "Why do you care so much?
"Isn't your purpose also to give me more experience in hunting monsters so that I can survive better? Haven't you already accomplished this goal?"
"That's what you said, then let's go."
"There is one more thing that has not been done yet, please wait."
"What are you waiting for?"
Dick walked to the pile of ashes in front of Leshen, gently opened it with his hand, and took out a red crystal as big as a fist.
"Look."
"Is this [Leshen's heart]?"
"Not bad." Dick replied.
"Leshen Heart can be used as an energy stone and is also a good material for alchemy. Many alchemists buy it at a high price.
"I don't know how to use it, but I know its value, and it's worth 100 Kelang."
Then, Dick handed this heart as hard and warm as a stone to Russell.
"Dick, what do you mean?"
"Fisher gave me 300 Kelang as a commission fee. I originally wanted to give you half of it, so I'll just give you this heart and treat it all as a commission fee. I don't need this thing anyway."
"Dick, I don't want it. Originally I just came out to help casually this time. If you want to thank me, treat me to a drink later."
"This..."
"Don't be polite to me, maybe I will ask you to help me in the future, also for free."
"Okay then, Russell."
Dick was no longer polite and put his heart in his bag.
"Master Demon Hunter, are you done?" Banyan's voice came from the distance.
"These woodcutters are quite brave." Russell laughed, and then said loudly, "It's solved, come over!"
"Okay."
After a while, with the help of the woodcutter, Dick moved the wolf carcasses back to Odinburg, except for the few that were given to Banyan, and made a small profit after selling them to the merchant.
It was only noon at this time, and then he and his senior brother went to the tavern for dinner, which was the 'There Is a Tavern' before.
When I opened the door, it was already full of guests.
Dick smiled and said, "Hey, it seems there is no room yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, a guest casually turned around with a wine glass in hand. When he saw Dick, he couldn't help shouting "Ah".
"I said, what are you yelling about?" asked the companion next to him.
The man realized that he had lost his composure and quickly turned his head, but lightly poked his companion.
The companion didn't take it seriously at first. When he turned his head, he also opened his mouth wide. Just as he was about to scream, he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand.
Then he put down his wine glass and suddenly stood up. "My wife came home and asked me to have dinner, so I'll leave first."
The movement at their table obviously attracted the attention of guests at other tables.
Only then did those people discover the arrival of the two demon hunters.
"Oh, my head hurts today. I have to go back first."
"My butt hurts today and I have to go home to recuperate."
"My dog has given birth to puppies, I have to take good care of them."
The reasons are varied.
In a moment, there were only two guests left in the tavern, and they were still two old men drinking in a corner.
Dick smiled helplessly and looked at Russell: "It seems that what happened yesterday frightened the residents here. Just find a seat and sit anywhere."
"Then come to the corner. There is no draft in the corner and it will be warmer."
The two walked to the two old men. Dick sat down at a nearby table and looked at the two old men politely. "It won't disturb you if we sit here, right?"
"No, no, no." An old man had drunk so much that his tongue was a little big.
"Why didn't you leave like those people just now?" Russell asked.
Another old man was also drinking and his face was red. He smiled and pointed at Russell, "Do you think you can scare us away just by your cat eyes?"
"We are almost 150 years old together, and we only have a few years left to live. My old cold legs hurt every day. I can feel a little more relaxed after killing me with one sword."
Dick chuckled secretly, and then shouted loudly towards the bar, "Boss, take your order."
"Here we come." The boss walked out of the bar helplessly and ran all the way to the table of the two demon hunters. "What would you like to have?"
"Just five pounds of good meat and two pounds of good wine."
At the end, Dick added, "Don't worry, we won't cause trouble.
"You see, the two of us chose to sit in the corner. My senior brother also considered it for you, so that the guests who come in again will not easily notice that we are here and will not be scared away."
"Thank you both very much."
Feeling relieved, the boss turned back to the bar and ordered the waiter to serve the food.
