To reach Byron Weiss Academy, they had to pass through the Forbidden Forest, which was not an easy route.
When Fangzheng and Eirinn left the cathedral again, the dusk had turned into night. The whole of Yanan was shrouded in silent darkness. The Forbidden Forest was incomparably dark. Other than the light from the torches along the way, it was almost pitch-black, and nothing could be seen.
Danger lurked in the darkness as well.
"Hiss!!"
A coiled snake hissed and sprang out from the bushes. It stretched its head out to bite Fangzheng, but its body was split in half by a shadow of a sword while it was still in the air. The snake's body was still writhing on the ground like a disgusting large earthworm.
"Why did you come to Yanan?"
Asked Eirinn, who was following behind Fangzheng, as he continued to move forward with his sword on his shoulder.
"Since you said you're not here for the blood treatment, why did you come to Yanan? And how did you get involved in this nightmare? "
"Would you believe me if I told you that I'm just unlucky?"
Fangzheng turned his head to look at Eirinn and shrugged. Eirinn snorted softly.
"If that's the case, then you're really unlucky …. By the way, who are you? You can't be an ordinary traveler. I can see that you're very skilled. I've never seen such skills even among the Hunters. And your fighting style is also very strange …. "
Eirinn carefully observed Fangzheng's weapons as she spoke. Fangzheng was carrying a greatsword in his right hand, while his other short sword was hanging on the left side of his waist. She had seen warriors who used dual swords before. The most famous Maria of the Church of Healing was one of them. Eirinn herself also knew how to fight with two short swords.
But Fangzheng's fighting style was different from theirs. His swordsmanship gave Eirinn a sense of indescribable grandeur. Whenever he swung his sword, Eirinn felt as if she had been transported into an era that could hardly be described with words. A heavy feeling of pressure washed over her, almost suffocating her.
Ordinary people could not remain calm in the face of such grandeur. Eirinn suspected that most people would lose their will to fight the moment the outsider held his sword.
Of course, that was only for ordinary people. As for the others ….
"Over here!!"
Shouted a villager holding a torch and an axe as he charged at Fangzheng. As for Fangzheng, he didn't hesitate to cleave at the villager. But this time, the villager did not fall. On the contrary, his body swayed slightly. Then, Fangzheng saw the villager's head suddenly open. Several snakes darted out of the villager's head like petals and opened their mouths wide to bite Fangzheng.
Admittedly, this change was indeed unexpected, but Fangzheng was already used to this kind of surprise attack. Facing the bite of the snakes, Fangzheng leaped to the side to avoid them. At the same time, he raised the short sword in his left hand. Several sword flashes appeared in the air, crisscrossed to form a barrier, and cut off the heads of all the snakes that pounced at him. Then, Fangzheng thrust the sword in his right hand and penetrated the villager's chest.
The villager screamed and fell to the ground. At the same time, the snakes that had darted out quickly retracted their heads.
"I've seen my fair share of monsters, but I have to say that the mutation of these guys is really disgusting."
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Fangzheng could not help but comment. In all fairness, among the worlds that Fangzheng had transmigrated to, the Dark World and the Dark World were among the most bloody and cruel, but when it came to disgusting people, the Dark World was the only one.
"You've seen your fair share of monsters?"
After witnessing Fangzheng's strength, Eirinn had basically become a salted fish shouting 666 behind him. Perhaps because she had relaxed a lot, she even began to be in the mood to gossip.
After all, the Hunters that Eirinn had seen before were either here for blood treatment or for some other purpose … But this outsider was different. Eirinn felt that compared to the Hunters, his attitude was more like a tourist. This made Eirinn a little more curious about this outsider. Who was he? Where did he come from? What experiences did he have?
Eirinn had been in Yanan for too long, so long that she had almost forgotten about the world outside Yanan. It was not until Fangzheng's arrival that Eirinn remembered that Yanan was not the only place in this world.
"More or less. There are all kinds of monsters. Some are powerful, some are scary, and some are disgusting … But relatively speaking, this place is the most disgusting."
Fangzheng was not lying. In terms of disgusting, the Protozoa in the Dark World were also disgusting enough. But strictly speaking, the Protozoa in the Dark World were just a little disgusting. They were like flies or maggots. Of course you would find them disgusting and uncomfortable. It was an instinctive human reaction.
But the monsters in this world were different. They were not as simple as looking strange and unacceptable. On the contrary, they were mutations that were based on human cognition. This feeling was even more unacceptable than pure mutated creatures.
For example …
"Buzz!!"
Just as Fangzheng and Eirinn turned the corner, a dark shadow suddenly jumped out from the bushes nearby. It made a buzzing sound like a fly and pounced on Fangzheng. It looked like a large humanoid fly with a skinny body and slender limbs.
But the most unacceptable part was its head!
On the head of this "person", the part above its mouth was completely occupied by eyeballs. And these eyeballs were not of ordinary size. On the contrary, they were as big as water balloons. The countless eyeballs squeezed together looked like the compound eyes of a fly from a distance!
Not only that, the mouth of this "person" was also sharp like a mosquito's mouthpiece. Fangzheng could almost imagine how it would attack the enemy … Well, it was not good for his appetite.
Although the monster looked disgusting, it did not have much defence. When it pounced on them, Fangzheng had already sent it flying with a slash of his sword. He then went up and chopped off its head.
"Disgusting. I'll definitely have nightmares if I look at this thing too much."
"We're in a nightmare now, foreigner."
Eirinn, who was following behind Fangzheng, complained unhurriedly. Fangzheng just shrugged.
"Well, I can only say that this is really a nightmare … Hmm? Did you hear that? "
At that moment, Fangzheng suddenly heard a faint crunching sound not far away. It sounded like some kind of beast gnawing on something. Upon hearing the sound, Fangzheng and Eirinn looked at each other, drew their weapons, and carefully walked towards the source of the sound.
When Fangzheng and Eirinn bypassed the woods, a mill appeared in front of them. In the small courtyard in front of the mill, a man was kneeling on the ground with his head lowered, seemingly devouring something.
Hmm … Why does this scene look so familiar?
If it wasn't for the fact that it was impossible, Fangzheng really wanted to switch out and see if he had been transferred to a Resident Evil scenario …. Back then, the charming zombie who looked back and smiled at everyone was the symbol of Resident Evil ….
At that moment, the man seemed to have heard the movement behind him. He turned around and looked at Fangzheng and Eirinn, then hurriedly stood up.
"Oh … Sorry, I didn't expect anyone to be here …."
"Me neither."
Fangzheng narrowed his eyes at the man in front of him. The man looked slovenly. Apart from a jacket, his whole body was wrapped in bandages.
"I, I'm a survivor …."
Facing Fangzheng's scrutinizing gaze, the man appeared a little nervous.
"In fact, I'm looking for a safe shelter. I don't know if you can help me. I don't want to stay in this terrible place any longer …. If I stay here any longer, I'm afraid I won't live for long …."
"You're right."
But as soon as the man's voice faded, Fangzheng raised the weapon in his hand and aimed it at him.
"You really won't live for long!"
Before the man's voice faded, Fangzheng pounced forward like a whirlwind. The greatsword in his hand cut through the air and slashed straight at the man's neck. At the same time, Eirinn rolled behind the man like a ghost. She instantly unsheathed her twin blades and stabbed at the man's back.
Faced with the sudden attack from Fangzheng and Eirinn, the man panicked. He hurriedly raised his hand to block Fangzheng's blade. With a dull thud, the greatsword in Fangzheng's right hand slashed deeply into the man's raised right arm, leaving a wound so deep that bones could be seen.
"Roar —!!"
