Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1327 1299. Clergy Beast

The steps in front of the cathedral in Mission Town were built very grandly during this period.

The scattered clergy were standing near the door outside the church.

They had obviously been ordered to guard the door here and prevent the contents from coming out. At the same time, they could not let anyone, including themselves, see what was going on inside.

That is the deepest and most untouchable secret belonging to the Healing Church.

All insiders will be eliminated as ordered by Archbishop Lawrence in his last human roar.

But these are just clergymen used to guard the door. How could they stop Lan En?

"Bang bang!"

At the end of the stairs extending upward, the luxurious and heavy door of the cathedral was still shaking, making a crashing sound from the inside out.

And on top of the steps, there was a sound of '呲'.

Lan En released his hand, which was originally holding the shoulder of a clergyman. The dragon scales on the hand armor made a soft sound due to the change in the opening and closing angle of the palm.

Alondette, whose blade was as clear as silver lake water, was smoothly pulled out from the opponent's chest.

The splattered blood was not even stained by the armor due to the sword wielder's excellent skills.

The clergyman who was released from his hands rolled down the steps with his limp body like mud.

There was no one blocking the way in front of Lan En, so he immediately went up and pushed open the door of the cathedral.

There is no difference from the ‘future’ Yanan.

After opening the door inside the cathedral, there is still an upward staircase.

There are creepy statues on either side of the staircase.

Like the head of a walnut that has been hollowed out and carved, golden spears are stuck in the skinny arms, pointing diagonally upward.

Weird and chilling.

But above the stairs, there was an extremely explosive movement!

"Ouch!!"

The violent beast roared, and the sound sounded familiar to the demon hunter who had just entered.

Lan En stood under the stairs just after entering the door, unable to see clearly what was happening and what the scene was above.

But he only saw that as the chaotic roar of the beast echoed endlessly in the echo structure of the cathedral, the firelight that was reflected on the ceiling of the cathedral and then scattered became hotter and hotter!

"Bang!"

This time there was a muffled crash.

A black shadow flew directly from the stairs and hit the door that Lan En had just opened.

Unfortunately, the place where the black shadow hit was supposed to have a relief, but it was still a flat facade. But after Lan En opened the door.

"Crack!"

The black figure hit the edge of the opened door directly, and his head was shattered on the ground.

Finally, like a broken water bag, it hit Lan En's feet with a juicy sound.

This is an old hunter, wearing a wide-brimmed hat that has softened and furred.

Not only was his head smashed into pieces, but there were also burn marks on his body.

The smell of blood, the smell of roasted proteins, the strange smell of wood, leather, and even stone being cracked by high temperatures all began to rush into the demon hunter's nostrils.

The roars of wild beasts, the excited growls of hunters, and the sounds of metal and flesh tearing against each other are endless.

But in this chaos, Lan En seemed to be mentally prepared.

With a calm expression, he quickly climbed the stairs and took in the entire cathedral above the stairs.

And the most conspicuous thing in sight was, without a doubt, a beast.

A flaming beast!

"Ouch!!"

Just like the clergy beast that Lan once hunted with Henryk in Yharnam in the 'future'.

The huge body was so dry that the bones were exposed, and the hair was so thick that it was scary.

The wolf has strong and ferocious antlers on its head. One hand is shrunken, but the other hand is abnormally strong.

It's just that this side of the cathedral is different from the clergy beast Lan En has seen before, in that it's burning!

It's not the kind of burning that gets hurt by fire because of hunters' penchant for using fire.

Instead, its own chest, bones, and hair all seemed to be flowing with hot lava!

Glow, get hot, catch fire!

If the common sense of the Yannan people is: to deal with wild beasts, use fire.

Then Lan En felt that this common sense would probably not apply to this beast.

How much fire can be as high as the temperature on its body now?

And because of its appearance in the cathedral, the Healing Church sealed the entire cathedral's clergy beast.

In Lan En's speculation, there is only Lawrence! "roar!"

Lawrence roared angrily, its strong arm slapped the ground randomly, and after falling suddenly, an explosive wave of fire spread out.

There was a "squeaking" sound as the protein was quickly burnt and the body fat was boiling!

But no one here screamed.

In other words, nothing emits a 'human scream'.

"Ah!" He roared in a confused and meaningless voice.

The hair on the crazed hunter's face grew thicker, even though more than half of his body was burned by the flames.

But he still didn't notice or didn't care. A steel claw hammer immediately hit Lawrence's palm that was on the ground!

There was a blast of "Bang!"

The hammer with a mechanical structure on its head is an explosive hammer!

The deformed mechanism weapon produced by the Yanan Hunter Workshop made a spiderweb-like dent on the marble floor of the church through Lawrence's claws!

This style of grafting the violence of gunpowder weapons onto deformed weapons is a unique combat weapon style created by a group of hunters in Yanan known as the "Gunpowder Keg Gang".

But this hunter who was obviously abnormal, after he hit Lawrence's claws with a cracking sound of bones cracking, he suddenly knelt down with a 'pop'!

It was a hunter holding an extendable hunting ax similar to Gascoigne's.

He raised his ax high from behind, with a cheerful and distorted smile on his face. As soon as the hunter from the Powder Keg Gang hit the hammer, he immediately slashed it in the back!

The hunter of the Powder Keg Gang has gone crazy, and the spine of his back is exposed from the blurred flesh and blood!

His whole body immediately knelt forward uncontrollably.

The guy holding the hunter's ax immediately came closer and opened his palm like a claw!

"Pfft!"

A huge burst of blood! As the ax hunter thrust his hand from the back into the gunpowder keg hunter's waist, it exploded!

The hunter's special gloves stirred the internal organs and blood vessels in the body, followed by wild and cruel pulling!

Under the special technique, the degree of blood bursting was greatly enhanced, almost comparable to the blood rain brought out from the enemy's body by Lan En using the airflow blade!

The hunter's long and blood-red tongue licked the blood splattered on the side of his face and the corner of his mouth.

Under the brim of the hat, there was only an addictive light in his eyes!

Lan En once had an encounter with two high-level vampires and a group of blood-sucking creatures in the magical medieval world while searching for the master-level equipment blueprints of his Bear School.

But to be honest, even those brainless blood-sucking creatures who are addicted only to blood are far less crazy and morbidly thirsty for blood than these Yharnam hunters!

This doesn’t even mean that hunters are ‘blood-sucking creatures’. They are thirsty for blood. Even if it has nothing to do with physical needs, they will continue to pursue the smell of blood because of psychological needs.

This is simply a ‘bloodthirsty monster’!

There are a lot of old hunters in the cathedral now, but Lawrence went crazy here for a while and was not captured, because these hunters themselves have been lost in the sweet taste of the blood of the Son of God!

They don't want to think about anything else right now, they just...just want to bleed!

Own or others, as long as there is this sweet smell of blood!

But Lan En only finds the smell of blood disgusting!

"[Alder]!"

"Bang!"

The Witcher, who had just walked up the steps of the cathedral, pressed his left hand on the ground with his handprint!

Suddenly, a circular shock wave composed of chaotic magic, accompanied by the sound of air surging, suddenly spread from the point where the handprint landed!

Burning ashes on the ground, broken stones, and fragments of prayer benches scattered on the ground.

The advanced form of the seal obtained from the knowledge of the Wolf School was instantly dashed away!

In the chaos, the advanced form of [Alder's Seal] can not only impact in a single direction, but also appear in a circular shape like an explosive air wave.

The knowledge of the seals retained by the Wolf School, as well as Lan En's own chaos magic reserve far exceeds that of a normal demon hunter.

[Smaug] On the armor, Berengar worked hard to improve it, using master-level blacksmith techniques to superimpose several layers of sigil strength increases.

At this moment, even the old hunters who had already entered the state of lycanthropy were unable to stand under the impact and fell into a rolling gourd on the marble floor!

The flames that originally spread on the ground were also extinguished due to the short-term lack of air caused by [Alder's Seal].

The sound of metal rubbing against the mouth of the alchemy leather bag came gently from Lan En's waist.

The [Holy Moonlight Sword] wrapped in cloth appeared in Lan En's hand in its normal form.

And he held the hilt of the sword upside down, pointed it at the head of an old hunter lying on the ground at his feet, and stabbed it right through!

Yharnam hunters obviously have no way of dealing with enemies while lying down.

The hard sword blade that was not wrapped in cloth passed through the wide-brimmed hat and head, and the old hunter's body immediately stopped moving like a rag doll.

After all, not just any hunter can have the quality of Ludwig's blood, receive such high-quality and high-frequency [blood therapy], and bear the curse of the blow that killed the Son of God.

Even if his head is cut off, he doesn't know if he will die.

But because he was cautious about [Blood Therapy], when Lan En pulled out the [Holy Moonlight Sword] from the opponent's head, he took advantage of the situation and flicked the sword.

"Stab" sound.

The sword blade that had just been pulled out of his head slashed across the old hunter's neck and chopped off his head.
