Chapter 4: Violent Beasts and White Sail Swordsmanship

Seeing that Graeme was about to follow in the footsteps of his companions because of his carelessness, the hunter's pupils narrowed as if he had seen the scythe of death fall on his head.

"Woof woof woof, woof woof woof"

The black hound is desperate, and when it detects danger, it pounces in front of its owner.

"Bang!"

"Ouch"

The heroic hound was clearly no match for the ferocious predator. He was knocked away by a claw and fell to the ground, wailing.

But its actions were not without rewards. Graeme seized the brief opportunity and rolled on the spot, avoiding the fatal blow to his neck. He barely escaped with his life at the cost of losing a piece of flesh on his arm.

It fell to the ground silently, and the big black cat made a move to pounce again. Graeme, who already understood the gap between him and it, closed his eyes and waited for death. He could almost smell the fishy wind brought by the big cat on the tip of his nose.

"Whoosh!"

An arrow shot through the air.

"Bang!" Deda shot into the ground between the big cat and Graeme. The strong force caused the arrow to penetrate into the ground, leaving only a tail feather that buzzed and vibrated.

The big black cat was startled, turned its head and glanced in the direction of the arrow, with a humanized hesitation in its bright yellow eyes, spread out its long limbs, and quickly ran up a big tree and disappeared.

Inside the canopy.

Seeing the person coming, Graeme showed a look of joy as he struggled to stand up from the ground while gasping for breath.

"Brother, thank you for saving my life!"

At this time, the tenacious hound also stood up and ran to Graeme, sticking out his tongue.

"And you, my old man Jim! You are my savior."

He took out a roll of gauze from his backpack and asked Graeme to bandage it himself. Regardless of reminiscing about old times, Alvin asked in a deep voice: "Have you seen what it is?"

"It was a black leopard. At that time," Graeme held the gauze between his teeth and bandaged himself skillfully, while gritting his teeth and angrily telling Alvin the experience of the two of them tracking along the way.

"And it was very fast and cunning. Colin was directly attacked and bitten to death by him because he was unprepared. If he hadn't been afraid of it running away at the beginning and waited for someone to surround him, he would have killed this abominable beast long ago."

"Evan, let's work together to kill it!"

"No, Gray! We'd better leave quickly, this shouldn't be a leopard." After a pause, Ivan frowned: "This should be a ferocious beast!"

After experiencing the systematic teachings of the old butler Leo, Alvin's understanding of the world is far beyond what ordinary hunters in small places can match.

Maybe their ancestors have never encountered ferocious beasts, but there is a high probability that they will come back and pass on their valuable experience to their descendants if they don't have the chance.

Maybe Leopold's upper-class people knew it, but the isolation of blood and status determined that no knowledge and experience would be casually leaked to the bottom of society.

This is also where Ivan is grateful for his origins. Reborn in this era, if you start as an ordinary civilian, the difficulty will be simply hell. When you reach adulthood and can move freely, you may not be able to understand what kind of country and world you live in.

.

Judging from the digital vision and Gram's description, it is very likely that it is a violent lynx.

"Lynx?" Graeme looked in disbelief when he heard Ivan's judgment.

Of course he knew the bobcat. The bobcat is also called the lynx. You can often see bobcats in the mountains when hunting in the woods. But those are medium-sized cats that are no taller than a human thigh and not as big as a hunting dog. And that one can

The difference between a guy flying up a tree with an adult in his mouth is really huge.

It was difficult for Alvin to explain to Gram, who did not have any extraordinary common sense. The violent creatures were originally just ordinary animals, but affected by the mysterious factors floating in this world, after undergoing passive extraordinary transformation, if they survived

It will become a ferocious creature whose size, strength, speed, and intelligence far exceed those of its kind.

This peculiar existence has existed since ancient times.

According to Leo, the old butler who is an official knight, it is through the study of this magical phenomenon that humans have developed a method to use special exercise methods and magic potions to actively trigger the physical violence and become a powerful knight.

It's just that one is active and the other is passive. They are both physically violent. Human knights are much more powerful than ferocious beasts of the same level.

The lynx, which was originally only a medium-sized cat, has grown into a ferocious predator larger than a cheetah, and with the physical increase brought about by its ferocious transformation, it is far beyond what ordinary people can deal with.

Unfortunately, the ordinary people here also include Aiwen himself, a little trainee knight.

"Maybe this cunning beast's escape is just an illusion. The intelligence of ferocious animals may not be as good as humans, but we can no longer treat it as an ordinary beast."

Ivan's mouth is also bitter now. If he knew that what Graeme and the others were provoking was a ferocious beast, he would not have followed him at all. Even if the two of them were tied together, they would only be serving food to the ferocious beast.

That's all.

As for why he was able to scare away the opponent with a feather arrow in the first place, Ivan guessed that this was just a hunting instinct of this nocturnal animal, which habitually hides itself even when faced with weak prey.

"Then let's go back first. If we inform the city hall that there is a fierce predator here, the consul will probably send a musketry team to kill it."

The attribute of recklessness is not a characteristic of a hunter, and Graeme is a qualified hunter. After a brief battle between heaven and man, he nodded fiercely and decided to leave first, and then leave for the musketeers stationed by Leopold.

Serve as a guide and come to trouble this beast.

"Woof woof woof, woof woof woof"

The two men and the dog had just taken two steps when the hound Jim suddenly ran forward two steps, baring his white fangs and barking towards the forest again.

Seeing the big cat jumping down from the tree without concealing it and walking slowly and gracefully like an elf in the forest, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time.

"Fight for it!"

Since this beast was not going to let him go, Alvin was also aroused with ferocity, walked to the front of the team, and slowly unsheathed the sword at his waist.

When encountering each other on a narrow road, the brave will win, Ivan believes that.

"Wait a minute, Alvin." Graeme, who was standing behind him with his bow and arrow ready for support, suddenly spoke in an excited tone and spoke very fast.

"Maybe we don't have a chance. I don't know about other places, but this mountain forest is where I grew up. All the adult bobcats here have long dark bushes on their ears. But this one doesn't!

Look, there really isn’t one!”

Ivan's eyesight is better than that of Graeme, and he discovered this earlier than the latter, but he is far from having the rich experience of Graeme.

The lifeless situation finally had a glimmer of hope. Ai Wen felt relieved and returned to his normal state of mind.

Strictly speaking, the big lynx is still a cub and not very courageous, but after a successful hunt, it discovered that this two-legged animal is not powerful. Although smart but not experienced, the young predator decided not to go around in circles.

, directly turn all the remaining two-legged monsters into reserve food.

Ivan made a gesture of support, raised his sword and stepped forward to meet the ferocious lynx that was approaching step by step.

Standing five steps away from the ferocious lynx, Alvin squatted slightly with the sword in both hands, the blade of the sword at eye level, and assumed the horizontal sail stance used in white sail swordsmanship to deal with agile enemies.

White Sail Swordsmanship is a superb swordsmanship used by the ancestors of the Garriott family when they were young to cross the sea. It originated from the ship fighting technique used by sailors when fighting on surface ships, and was later perfected by swordsman masters of the past generations.

When it was passed down to Ai Wen, it was already a superb swordsmanship that could be used in surface combat on land and ships, and it was extremely influential along the Black Sea coast.

Although I don’t understand why this big cat showed up on its own initiative, it does not prevent Aiwen from testing it next, holding the sword tightly and slowly approaching.

"hiss!"

The big lynx is obviously still far from being a patient and qualified hunter. As soon as Irvine approached its attack range, the big lynx turned into a black shadow and flew towards him.

"drink!"

Ivan dodged with subtle and dexterous movements, and then instantly turned around and let out a loud roar. The strength of his whole body was connected with his right foot on the ground through his honed swordsmanship instinct. The long sword in his hand pierced the air and let out a loud roar.

A perfect thrust of the sword, chasing the big lynx's back as if to pierce it directly.

The big lynx's body didn't sluggish at all when it hit the air. The hunting instinct in its bones made it make the most correct choice and did not choose to dodge.

The huge but very dexterous body suddenly exerted force, kicked off the ground with its hind legs and flew into the air again, twisted its waist to pass the stabbing sword, and rushed towards Ivan's face again.
