"You're finally here, Lord Hanzo. There were also the two warriors here.”
An old man with a walking stick stood in front of the window and greeted the three people who entered the room. Originally, Luo Lian thought that he would beat around the bush, but she didn't expect that under certain circumstances, it was very difficult for people to hold their temper.
"I heard that both of you are capable people who can subdue demons and monsters…"
William was stunned. First of all, he did not understand what Loraine was saying. He could not accept Loraine admitting that she was so capable. Therefore, the ghost hunter that Kuroda Osamu had mentioned remained silent.
Realizing that his words did not have any effect, the guard could only continue,
"Actually, my son, Changzheng, went to crusade against the thieves, but there's still no news of him.”The old man paused for a moment and stomped his walking stick heavily."Even with my old bones, I can't save him. This matter…can I ask you to do it?”
"Dare I ask, where is Lord Chang Zheng?”
"It's in the mountains in the north."
After obtaining a very vague location, Hanzo led the two people who did not know the way to the mountains behind him. He led the two people to the entrance of a tunnel. After explaining that he had other things to do, he retreated into the shadows.
The two of them jumped into the tunnel. Lorraine began to observe the surroundings. Suddenly, a voice sounded in her ear,""Cat clock, Hanzo's hobby is really strange.”
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Loraine knew that the cat-shaped translator was about to attach itself to William.
Compared to Lorraine, who knew the truth, the cat's words gave William a fright.""I know the aura of his guardian spirit like the back of my hand.”
"Hey! Luo Lian." William looked at Lorraine in surprise and pointed at the white cat with black spots.""Your cats can talk!”
However, the next moment, William knew the truth. A large number of light spots appeared around the multi-colored cat. The tail on its butt split into two in the light. It was as if it was stretching. A double-tailed cat-like guardian spirit wearing a scarf and a one-eyed eyepatch jumped out of the multi-colored cat. After that, he decided on his own,"Let me possess you!"”
It flew around William a few times, as if the chief surgeon was looking for the best position to operate on. Finally, it seemed to have found a satisfactory position. The cat accelerated and crashed into William's body.
Seeing this scene, Luo Lian couldn't help but sigh. My little wood spirit is still more obedient.
In a flash, Nekomata floated behind William like a spirit. He said proudly,""This way, you can understand the language of this country. Thank me properly!" He looked as if he could not wait to be praised. He was just short of sticking his face to William and asking for a reward.
Luo Lian couldn't stand the human-like expression on a cat's face. She didn't want to find out if Hanzo was abusing animals or if cats were born like that. Luo Lian only wanted to complete the mission given to her by the Kuroda Guards before nightfall.
"Are you saying that you are very familiar with the aura of Changzheng's guardian spirit?”
" Hmm…" A regretful expression materialized on the cat's face."Although it's not very clear, I can feel the aura of an expert. But…let's just follow this aura and search for it.”
He couldn't understand why there were so many wild samurai entrenched in this godforsaken place.
As soon as they entered the tunnel, two wild samurai rushed over with their weapons.
William did not take out the cross spear on his back. Instead, he chose to pull out the double blades at his waist. Lorraine did not know how William had learned the Kodachi Nito-Ryu from a crew notebook. He had used the two weapons that were only two-thirds the length of the odachi as if they were tornadoes. Perhaps the English sailor who wrote that notebook was Great Mage Merlin, who had enchanted it with magic. The two sabers clashed against the scythe, and the clanging of metal rang out endlessly. The two of them were fighting in an extremely lively manner.
On the other hand, it was much quieter here. The tachi and spear were in a tit-for-tat battle. You advance and I retreat. No mistakes could be made. If you were not careful, you would be taken away. There was not even a chance for you to regret. Luo Lian felt that this stalemate was not a solution. She took a step back and sheathed her saber. Taking advantage of the opportunity when her opponent was about to advance and stab, she quickly drew her saber. The Combined Chop did not hurt anyone. Instead, it was Luo Lian's lapel that was cut. However, the Iai had achieved its goal this time. The tachi collided with the wooden handle of the spear. Unfortunately, the quality was not good enough. It did not cut off the handle of the spear, but was embedded in it. There was no possibility of retracting the spear, and the combat distance was shortened to a situation that was beneficial to Ro Lian. He held the saber with both hands to resist the opponent's downward pressure, then lifted his leg and gave a cold kick to the crotch. The resistance disappeared. He grabbed his spear and drew his saber. With a sudden stab, he cut open his stomach.
The battle on the other side had also come to an end. After the iron ball on one end of the chain was knocked away by Ruthless, the enemy could not readjust his attack in a short period of time. He could only die under William's dual blades.
After that, Lorraine and William dealt with wave after wave of attacks from the wild warriors. They were also complaining. The limestone mountain had been meticulously carved by the cold wind and cold water for thousands of years. The natural maze created was really a headache. The winding path at the edge of the cliff had already caused Loraine's acrophobia to almost flare up. She was also worried that bats would fly out of nowhere and that bandits would shoot all kinds of arrows and black guns.
They finally arrived at a relatively empty cave. Before they could admire the strange natural stone pillars in the cave, a group of shouting wild warriors had already rushed over.
"Half each?" Luo Lian secretly gathered her strength and prepared to join forces. At the same time, she played a trick and suggested a division of labor. However, this was simply impossible. Do you think these criminals who have been mingling in the black zone all year round are a big cake without an owner?
William did not answer. This Englishman, who was more old-fashioned than the Japanese, was used to expressing his wishes with his actions. He grabbed the cross spear on his back and clenched it tightly with both hands. The tip of the spear was pointed forward like a mad rhinoceros charging into the bandits. It ruthlessly stabbed into the chest of the first enemy, piercing through his heart. He relied on his strong arm strength to lift the enemy's corpse and threw the corpse out with a flick of his spear, smashing it into the bandits who surrounded him from the left. He knocked them unconscious on the spot and slowed down the wild samurai's encirclement. After throwing the spear, he retracted his strength and instantly burst out with his spear. He swept to the right and cleared the enemies close to his right. A set of clean and nimble spear techniques easily scattered the enemies who were charging in groups, and the unfavorable situation was stabilized a little.
Naturally, Luo Lian wouldn't just stand by and watch the show. With a full-strength attack, she decapitated a reckless fellow who was wielding his dual blades. Without sheathing his blade, he raised his blade and charged forward, escaping the encirclement. With his right foot in place, he exerted strength with his left foot and quickly turned right. He took the opportunity to cut the enemy's arteries with the Reverse Kasaya Slash from left to right. He continued to run and adjust his position. He turned his knife, the blade facing upwards, and forced the long spear wielding bandit into the range of his knife. Then, he slashed from bottom to top against the wind, cutting through the cloth, tearing the muscles, and harvesting the head. He swung his katana and drew a blood moon on the ground. He sheathed his katana and looked for the next suitable harvesting position.
Logically speaking, humans might bully the weak and fear the strong, but to these outlaws, this place was their stronghold. They would definitely not allow Luo Lian and her brother to enter, so their goal was to eliminate them. There was no difference between who went first and who went last. In addition, the two people's fighting methods were completely different. One relied on the lower part of the attack to quickly move his body, and from time to time, the slippery enemy, while the other was a boorish man who waved his cross spear in the air and confronted him head-on. In a situation where they were outnumbered, they would definitely prioritize eliminating the guy who was playing with them like a spinning top. Moreover, due to the scattering of responsibilities, the strength of a single enemy's attack was actually reduced by quite a bit.
Therefore, compared to the time when she had to face the two wild samurai individually, the current situation was much more relaxed for her.
William was in the middle of the open space, fighting tirelessly against the enemies who used all kinds of weapons. Every time he grasped the right timing, he would use Whirlwind to scatter the enemies. Lorraine was wandering between the stone pillars. She used her vision to look for the enemies who had been tortured by William until they were exhausted. She steadily killed the enemies and killed them.
It was unknown how much time had passed, but when William pulled out the cross spear from the last enemy, the surroundings were already filled with corpses. The splattering blood had changed the color of the surrounding stone pillars. The ground was also soaked in blood, giving off a gloomy and sticky feeling.
After a battle, it was inevitable for the two of them to be injured. They simply bandaged their wounds, took some immortal medicine, and took a breather. The two of them continued to advance into the depths of the darkness.
