Chapter 56: Igni Sign

The beast's head looked a bit like a wild boar, but its skin was a pale white. It was more than four meters long and two meters tall.

He has four long fangs in his mouth, a row of white bone spurs on his back, and densely packed eyes on both sides of his belly.

These eyeballs were flashing a faint red light and were rolling around.

Wherever his gaze went, those who made eye contact shuddered violently.

Clown felt as if countless tiny reptiles were crawling over his body, and he inexplicably felt a chill.

"@%￥..."

The monster opened its mouth and roared, and another indescribable, sickening howl rang out.

"Ah", "Roar", "Meow"

The shrill cries of various animals followed closely, and wild beasts kept jumping out of the gray fog.

There were mountain cats with half a head, brown bears with green tentacles on their heads, giant wolves that were two meters tall when standing upright, and all kinds of deformed and grotesque beasts.

In the gray fog, the sound of drums beating like raindrops rang out.

To the rhythm of the drums, the beasts let out low roars and approached the crowd.

The commotion in the crowd became even worse. There was a stampede in the crowd, and there were cries, shouts, and curses all mixed together.

A tall and thin patrolman saw this situation and subconsciously raised his pistol and pulled the trigger.

As if receiving some signal, the patrol officers opened fire one after another, forming a simple firepower network.

Amid the loud gunfire, the wild animals were shot one after another, but no casualties were caused.

The bullets penetrated their flesh, causing only thumb-sized wounds from which green mucus oozed.

In the firelight, the mucus reflected dark green light and shadows.

A bobcat was shot in the eye socket by a semi-automatic rifle. The bullet passed through its head, opened its skull, and exploded the brains inside.

The bobcat was beaten back and crashed into the monkey running wildly behind it, then fell to the ground and never got up again, but this was the only result achieved by the patrolmen.

As soon as the strange monster jumped out, Nick used his spiritual power to release the burning weapon enchantment for the demon hunter and the warrior.

The iron of his tower shield burst into flames, radiating intense heat.

"We can't rely on the patrol team, we can only rely on a few of us," the priest held up the flail, a dark red light shining on his body, surrounding him and slowly disappearing into his body.

"I'll deal with the biggest one."

Before he finished speaking, his figure had already rushed out. He strode forward with big strides, and the ground shook.

"Alan, protect yourself," Geralt turned and warned his student, holding the sword with both hands and shooting it out like a javelin.

Crown raised his revolver and shot at the eye sockets of the smaller beasts.

After observing yesterday and just now, he found that only by hitting the heads of these mutant animals could they cause casualties.

It is not easy to kill those large animals with one shot by hitting their heads. Yesterday, his bullet hit a giant wolf's eye socket, but the wolf did not fall down, but just moved a little slowly.

“Bang, bang.”

Six bullets, two of which hit the target's eye sockets accurately, killing two bobcats.

"Huh!" He bent his arms and blew gently towards the gun barrel.

Putting the revolver back into the holster, Crown swung his sword to meet a monkey with two bulging eyes.

Two thumb-thick green tentacles connected the monkey's eyeballs and eye sockets, giving the monkey a 360-degree field of vision. In its hands, it was holding a rotten baby's head.

The fragile organs that need to be protected grew outside. This mutation is destined to be eliminated first. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Clown's face.

He jumped up nimbly, swung the weapon in his hand in a flaming fan shape, and one of the vines of the monkey's eye was cut off.

Feeling the pain, the monkey frantically clawed at the person who hurt him.

Its pain did not last for a few seconds. Crown spun around and slashed horizontally, throwing the monkey's head into the air and green blood spurting out like a faucet that was not turned off.

There were many mutated wild beasts, about a hundred in total, and a few people were unable to intercept them all. Many beasts pounced into the crowd and started a ruthless killing.

If these people had courage, they could still put up an effective resistance. However, few dared to turn around and fight the mutated beasts, and the townspeople suffered heavy casualties.

When the ordinary mutant beasts were dealt with, the square was filled with corpses.

Both Crown and Geralt stepped forward, ready to help the priest deal with the powerful monster.

The battle between Nick and the monster continued. The heavy flails hit the monster's body, but were blocked by a layer of gray film and did not leave any scars.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Gray light would sometimes be emitted from the monster's eyeballs, and when the light hit the priest's body, it would be absorbed by a layer of red light shield.

"They are wearing spiritual armor. When fighting against priests or warlocks who use spiritual power as their main means of attack, the battle will not begin until that layer of turtle shell is knocked off," the demon hunter explained, pointing at the two people fighting. "Do you have any elemental attack methods?"

Clown shook his head. His spirit master ability had not been developed at all. Currently, it could only be used to delay the enemy's attack, which was considered a defensive skill.

"Then you should stay on the sidelines. The Spirit Armor has a significant weakening effect on physical attacks. Relying solely on the elemental damage provided by the weapon enchantment will not be of much use."

Geralt gave instructions, put on a silver sword, took out a small bottle, quickly smeared something on the sword, and pounced on it.

The long sword shone with a cold light, and there were strange symbols engraved on the sword.

These symbols flickered continuously, emitting a deep blue.

Klauen followed the witcher's advice and took a few steps back. Fortunately, he had not seen the witcher's real fighting style.

As Geralt rushed towards the monster, a spherical, faint yellow light emanated from his body.

At this time, Alan came over, his face covered with sweat, but he was very excited.

He pointed at the teacher's back and said, "The light just now is the seal of our demon hunters, the Quen Seal. It can absorb a certain amount of damage and is most effective against physical damage, but it is not so effective against spiritual damage."

Klauen nodded, his eyes still fixed on the movements of the priest and the witcher.

The boy thought he was worried now, so he smiled and comforted him: "Relax, the battle just now was just a warm-up for the teacher. The heavily armored crab spider, which is larger than this monster, is no match for him."

With Geralt's joining, the monster was defeated step by step, and the gray light film on its body kept flickering and dimming.

In his spiritual perception, Clown felt that something was spying on him and there was a slight pricking sensation on his body. He looked around suspiciously but found nothing else.

The demon hunter suddenly dodged to the monster's belly and made a strange gesture with his hands.

Flames gushed out from his hands like a fire dragon, rushing towards the monster.

The light film on the monster's body dissipated instantly, and a fishy burnt smell came out.

At the same time, the iron ball on Nick's flail seemed to have just been taken out of the furnace, shining with a fiery texture and hitting the monster's head hard.

"That's the Igni Sign, which can cause fire damage," Alan pointed at Geralt and said excitedly, "If I become a real demon hunter, I can also use it."
