Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 328
[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 328]
“I’m trying too,” Dubois said.
“Let’s hurry up, they don’t have much patience.” Luo Dan smiled.
He carried a banjo on the outside of the cloak, a leather scabbard on his waist, showing the silver hilt, and a short crossbow hanging on the back of his hand, like a well-mannered demon hunter.
“Are they a bunch of bad guys?” Dubois thought of Ciel’s warning to himself that he might be in danger there.
“The brothers in the broken robe are still very kind.” Luo Dan stopped, turned to look at Dubois, “”
“Why didn’t you cut off your black robe to join them?” Dubois asked.
“Because this is what Master Grani tied for me.” Luo Dan proudly raised the corner of his cloak, “I was one of the first few people to join the church. In terms of seniority, I was the oldest group of people. We worked together back then. A lot of big things happened.”
“event?”
“We took all the thieves’ unions in Ash Tree Hall. From the boss, to the cadres, to the thugs inside, all of them were burned to ashes by Master Grani.”
“So ruthless!” Dubois was a little surprised. He had heard of this and thought it was the result of the guards’ fight against evil.
“They provoke us in the sanctuary, which is what they deserve. We played them around and took back what they stole from the sanctuary, and this cloak was one of them. And in the sanctuary. Those gold and silver wall decorations were all taken back by Master Grani himself.” Luo Dan said.
“What about your qin? Your qin… I’ve never seen it like this.” Dubois looked at the banjo behind Luo Dan.
“This is what Master Grani stole from hell, you know?” Luo Dan said, “It’s completely different from other musical instruments in this world.”
“Master Grani… Been to ‘Hell’?!”
“Yes, he brought back a lot of things from hell. It’s amazing. He is the strongest, most terrifying, and the best demon hunter in the world.” Luo Dan said.
“Wow…” Dubois heard that Ciel had done a lot of things, but it was the first time he knew such details.
Luo Dan walked hundreds of steps forward, and then stopped by leaning against a tree.
Dubois looked past the trees that covered each other and saw several tents, fires were lit in the middle, and the smoke rose into the sky.
“That’s the Broken Robe brothers.” Luo Dan pointed to them.
“Aren’t you going with me?”
“I’m not Brother Broken Robe. I neither join them nor defect to Ines. I’m a free demon hunter, a ranger who fights demons, a ranger.”
“Isn’t it dangerous to be alone?” said Dubois.
“Master Grani also took risks by himself,” said Luo Dan, “Although I was not the first to join the church, I was definitely the first to see him. In the village, I was in a daze, and I always wanted to do something. As soon as Master Grani appeared, he killed the river troll who had been in trouble for many years, freeing everyone from fear. As soon as I heard the demon, my legs became weak, and I didn’t keep up with Master Grani’s footsteps, otherwise I would be the first disciple of Master Grani.”
Speaking of the back, Luo Dan’s voice sounded a little lonely.
“Oh…” Dubois didn’t know how to comfort him.
Luo Dan glanced at Dubois and laughed again.
“No,” Luo Dan said, “if you think about it carefully, there is nothing to regret. Ciel treats us equally and has taught us many things. He has always been uninhibited, free, active, and brave. My greatest ideal is to become Just like him! Go now, join Brother Duanpao, and complete the task given to you by the master.”
Dubois nodded, then slowly walked towards the tents.
Demon hunters, wearing black half-cloaks, sit or stand around the fire.
They had heard the movement before, and when they turned around, Dubois was stared at by them and his heart was pounding.
“Are you the recruit Luo Dan said?” Enzo stood up and glanced at Luo Dan by the tree in the distance.
Luo Dan waved to him, but Enzo ignored him.
“It’s me.” Dubois tried to straighten his chest.
“What do you know?” Elijah sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at Dubois with gloomy eyes.
“I…I…” Dubois pondered for a long time and didn’t understand what he would do. He moved slowly, but he felt that his brain was still bright, and things were clearer, “…I am more…smarter?”
“The brain can’t fight, say something useful.” Enzo shouted.
Dubois looked nervously at Enzo, who was wrapped in a black cloak, with solid iron armor hidden under it, and he was quite well equipped.
It’s over, if they were kicked out because of their incompetence, wouldn’t it betray Master Grani’s trust?
Never let the master down!
“I’m strong-willed,” Dubois said, “and I’m not afraid of the devil.”
“The will is useless, you just give us more mouths! Kid! Go back and forth from where you come from!” Enzo scolded.
“He was recommended by Luo Dan, and he must have his advantages.” Hugo said.
Dubois looked at Hugo.
It was a middle-aged demon hunter, his face was gray and dirty, the same color as his temples, and he replaced his right foot with an old wooden stick, the end of which was worn away.
Dubois couldn’t believe that the other party was Hugo. He heard that the other party had personally trained dozens of hunter recruits with both swords and crossbows. He was also proficient in swordsmanship, but now he is no different from an ordinary uncle.
“It’s like Luo Dan is our member.” Enzo said disdainfully.
“…Luo Dan is our member.” Hugo said, “Luo Dan has lived with us for many years, and so are you. We belong to a church.”
“The place we lived in is a big hole now!” Enzo said, “Don’t try to teach me a lesson like an instructor, understand? You’re just a cripple now! Don’t blame me for not respecting you, you treated us as human back then. see?”
Hugo looked down, and finally couldn’t help but glance at Elijah.
Elijah turned a deaf ear, just watching the fire.
So Hugo shook his head and said nothing.
“If Xia Er was here, I would never see you become like this.” Luo Dan couldn’t help but approach them.
“Oh? Hunter Luo Dan is back to talk to us again. It’s an honor.” Enzo said.
“I think you deserve to be beaten.” Luo Dan walked towards Enzo.
“Speak to me with honorifics.” Enzo snorted coldly, clutching the hilt of his sword.
“Don’t mention Ciel’s name.” Elijah raised his head, and Luo Dan couldn’t help but stop.
“You dare not face him, do you?” Luo Dan asked, “Elija, you are Ciel’s apprentice, so you think everything you do is right?”
“I know Shire best, I know what he wants,” Elijah said.
“Then what do you say? See if he agrees or not!” Luo Dan was indignant.
Elijah stood up slowly.
Luo Dan’s expression gradually softened, and he felt apprehensive.
As an elite hunter in the post-Charr era, Elijah is absolutely superb. He was trained by the Charr himself, and he learned Storm Sword from Francesre in Rain Bay Hall. The West Coast Spell, with many strengths, diligent training, rich experience, is absolutely second to none.
“Charle wants me to be a strong man, stronger than him, more able to fight against demons than him. What he wants is for me to surpass him and inherit his work and mission after his death. I will do as he asks,” Elijah said, “That’s enough.”
Luo Dan frowned.
“You misinterpreted what Charles meant,” he said.
“Oh? I’ve been with Ciel through danger. He says I’m his most loyal follower. Over the years, I’ve led our small group of loyalists to stay true to our hearts and refuse to corrupt. What about you? What have you done, Luo Dan, you hide in the forest and do your own thing, you won’t even cut off your cloak to show your attitude.” Elijah said.
“Oh, it’s always like this, endless quarrels.” Claire sighed, reaching out and pulling Dubois aside.
“What do you want me to do?” Dubois was quite nervous.
He looked at Claire. She was beautiful, but she had no time to dress up, and her skin was rough from the lack of maintenance.
“To arm you, of course.” Claire took out a sword from the camp box and gave him a black cloak of Demon Hunter.
Before Dubois was happy, Claire swung her sword sharply again, severing the cloak Chilla.
“That’s how I added a new person.” Enzo was still skeptical, “Can he be useful?”
“Each of us can,” Elijah said calmly. “We were driven by Ines to hide in this forest, but it was only for a while, and we would soon be able to escape Ines’ siege and go to someone else. A place that is willing to accept us.”
“Yes, our future is very bright. Welcome to join us. From now on, we will be brothers in broken robes who advance and retreat side by side!” Claire smiled and patted Dubois on the shoulder.
“We set out late at night,” Elijah said. “Maybe find a way to go south, over mountains and elf lands.”
Dubois remained silent and walked up to an elderly hunter, who was lying on his side, peeling apples with a knife.
“What am I going to do?” Dubois felt that the other party was experienced.
“Save your life.” Du Wen took a bite of the apple. It was very hard and crunched when chewing. “Run when you are in danger, hide behind other people, and don’t try to fight recklessly.”
“Ah…” Dubois thought he would hear some more positive responses. How did such a decadent and lack of fighting spirit join the hunter organization?
Towards the end of the night, Dubois lay on the grass with his hands behind his head, thinking about the task Charles had given him.
I have to find out if they are good or bad and tell Ciel.
Dubois thought.
Mr. Grani now needs a group of reliable demon hunters to inherit the mission of demon hunters. He wants to use an invincible spirit to clean up all the messes in the world, and bring peace to our world. Such a great cause, if there is me. The servings are great!
Can people give me a page of the biography of Mr. Grani in the future?
Half a page?
… In order to be able to do big things with Mr. Grani, I can’t screw things up, but I have to dive in and do a good job of screening, and at the same time, I have to be careful to avoid accidents.
When they were sleeping, they were suddenly awakened by a cry.
“Ah!” cried Claire, who was in charge of the vigil.
“There are enemies?”
“What’s wrong!”
People got up one after another and soon discovered the source of the vision.
They turned their heads and looked into the depths of the twilight forest, and they all saw a beam of blood-red light reaching the sky with extraordinary momentum, illuminating half of the night sky.
Elijah’s expression changed especially violently. He took a deep breath and stumbled a few steps in the direction of the forest.
“What is that?” Enzo was puzzled.
“Divinity.” Elijah looked at the bloody light that shot up to the sky. “Master Grani and I have seen similar powerful treasures in the elf territory of Redwood Mountain, but at that time it was a green flash…”
“It sounds strange, what’s the use?” Claire asked.
“A great power that brings us close to the transcendent, the nature of God,” Elijah said. “We have to find it.”
“Look? There are only a few of us, and it’s almost winter, isn’t it bad to find something to eat?” Claire questioned, “Is the divine nature as amazing as you said?”
“Yes.” Elijah nodded, “Master Grani… After he returned from practicing in Redwood Mountain for a few months, his temperament has changed. It seems that his knowledge has increased and he has become more intelligent… This is all divine power. The role of… I must get this ray of divinity, so that I can really keep up with the pace of Ciel!”
“Enough, Elijah! You’ve led us through so many years, you’ve done a good job, and you’re not divine.” Claire said quickly, “Who knows what the risks are there? This kind of thing Suddenly appearing in the world, there must be countless people fighting for it! Adventurers from all walks of life, Red Blade Rangers, people pretending to be Ciel, and even the Sanctuary of Ines! Everyone will fight!”
“Staying still will only allow Ines to find and kill us all one day,” Elijah snorted coldly, “Stop talking, we’ll go now.”
“…” Claire was silent.
“Are you coming with us?” Elijah turned to ask Luo Dan.
Luo Dan froze for a moment and shook his head.
“No,” he said, “it’s enough to have Dubois with you.”
Others have turned to Dubois.
Sensing the suspicious eyes of others, Dubois couldn’t help but shudder.
This old man is too expressive, isn’t this disadvantageous to me?
I hope you don’t think too much…
“Enough?” Enzo frowned.
