Chapter 229 Blacksmith Andre
This hunk who came from nowhere was a big guy with a lot of muscles.
Looking at the standard boxing movements, the taut posture and the bulging muscles, you can tell that this is a fighter of extremely high purity and a well-deserved strongman!
A flying kick could leave two deep footprints on the hard body of the Ideal Version of the Limb-Replaced Noble. This was not something that an ordinary fighter could do, not to mention that a hard shell had been transplanted on the body surface of this Limb-Replaced Noble!
The blacksmith Andre, or Andre of Astra, is a blacksmith character that appeared in both the first and third generations of Dark Souls. Generally speaking, he is probably the first blacksmith that most players encounter, and he leaves a deep impression on people.
Just like a normal blacksmith, if you give Andre materials, he will help the undead forge or repair weapons. He has a generous personality and will always ask the player not to die after forging. If he can meet the player alive, he will happily say "That's great". In general, he is a very friendly old uncle.
If he was just friendly, he wouldn't be as popular as he is now.
Once you hit him a few times, you'll immediately understand why he's called the Boxing Champion!
Andre has a series of unique action modules in the game, such as boxing and flying kicks. These moves have extremely fast attack speeds, powerful impact and super high damage, especially the flying kick. Even Javier, a heavy-armored warrior holding a shield, will be kicked and staggered. If he is hit by a few more punches, he will be knocked off balance!
This is simply Petite Hollyroo!
The mysterious blacksmith, no one knows why he has such powerful fighting power, but on the other hand, if his fighting power is not strong, it would be impossible for him to successfully survive from Soul One to Soul Three.
And now, this boxing master was arranged here by Gong Qiying as a "blacksmith". Boxing was secondary, and the main purpose was to make up for the defect that no adventurer could use the forging stone.
In Lienia of the Lake he is just a blacksmith, but Andre may appear in other sets in the future, giving people a chance to get to know him better.
The same goes for the Rogues/Shrimp Brothers, their appearance here doesn't mean they won't appear somewhere else in the future.
After all, the Sion dungeon is not like the Soul Game where not talking to an NPC will cause all the side quests to be interrupted and the character to disappear. Useful employees should be used all the time.
"Who is that guy?"
Kunan couldn't help but scream out. If it weren't for the mask covering half of his face, people would probably have seen his facial expressions.
The original size of the Limb-Replanted Noble was very large, and with Gong Qiying's drastic modification, its actual size is almost as large as that of the Pyroxenosaurus. Even Andre looks quite petite compared to him.
What is this equivalent to? It's probably equivalent to a bug kicking over a human child that is 10 times bigger than itself. Is your bug called Kabuto?
Andre's sudden intrusion shocked everyone so much that Liznai even held back the magic spell she was chanting halfway through, which almost caused her magic power to go out of control.
"You" Weinmah felt that she should say hello to the other party at this time, but the limb-replacement noble had already climbed up and rushed towards Andre with a roar.
She quickly released magic, [Intermediate Water Element Control] + [Low-level Soil Control] + [Intermediate Hardening] and [Low-level Plant Growth Technique], which suddenly gave life to the mud on the ground, and it all wrapped around the crab legs of the limb-removing noble, unable to break free for a while!
Why does hardened mud have such hardness? Of course, it is because there are a lot of plants mixed in the mud. The older generation knows that when building a house, you should add some weeds to the mud to improve its stability and firmness.
This did limit the monster's movements, but Andre didn't actually need her to do so.
He stepped forward and threw a powerful, simple and rough uppercut at the limb-replacement noble.
“Ouch!”
The limb-reattached noble was extremely scared. In its eyes, Andre's punch was accompanied by the BGM of "One Punch Man". If it was hit, its skull would probably fly off like Kennedy's.
But there was someone to help pick up Kennedy's skull, but it didn't. So at the critical moment of life and death, it burst out with extremely fast speed and barely raised the shield before being hit by the fist.
"Bang!"
The dull sound and the terrifying force caused the body of the reattached noble to lean back uncontrollably, but the hardened mud wrapped around his lower body prevented him from maintaining his center of gravity and falling down. He even bounced back, about to face Andre's next punch.
This scene was full of déjà vu, and Kunan seemed to have seen it somewhere before.
By the way, isn't the limb-replaced noble now like a sandbag? A sandbag that won't fall down!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Andre used a series of ordinary punches! The shield of the limb-jointed noble had a lot of dents!
“Wow, wow!”
Every time he threw a punch, the elves would exclaim "Wow!"; his powerful attacks were truly a spectacle to behold.
It’s not that they are slacking off, but they can’t get involved in a battle of this magnitude.
The limb-jointed noble used almost all of his arms to hold up the big shield to resist Andre's attacks, and his crossbows and other weapons fell to the ground. At this time, the elves could sneak over and steal a few slashes, but it always felt that the damage caused was not as good as Andre's punch.
Who on earth is this old man?
"Okay, that's great."
Kunan's eyes were shining as he stared at Andre, he also wanted to have such fighting power!
Melgar looked at it for a while and said, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to just watch here?"
As she spoke, she slowly approached the limb-jointed noble. The rapid-fire crossbow that the noble had dropped on the ground did not disappear. Perhaps she could steal it? The dungeon would not allow adventurers to steal precious weapons like the Crucible Knight's greatsword, but the rapid-fire crossbow should not be a problem, right?
Besides, the limb-removing noble was fighting Andre and should have no time to pay attention to this place, so -
"Huff, huff!"
Just as she bent down to pick it up, a familiar voice suddenly came to her ears.
When she looked up, she saw a wild boar with green plants on its back rushing towards her!
Wait a minute, isn't this the mushroom pig that was just chased by the elves? Why does it seem to have grown bigger and faster?
Now is not the time to think about these things, get out of the way quickly!
Melgar felt threatened by the Mushroom Pig and quickly flew to the side to avoid the Mushroom Pig's straight charge. However, the opponent changed its offensive and turned around and did a sideways attack just when Melgar was about to dodge it!
“Ah!”
It was a perfect hit! Melgar was instantly knocked away. She felt her internal organs tumbling in mid-air, and she almost vomited her breakfast.
Hey, where am I flying to?
She looked up and found that she had drawn a perfect parabola in the air, and the end point of the parabola was right between Andre and the limb-transplanted noble!
The limb-replacement nobleman separated half of his arm and was talking to Andre. If she had chosen to fall in during this time period!
At this moment, many images flashed before Melgar's eyes, including the first time he rode a wooden horse as a child, the first time he ate dessert, the first time he
Shit, why did the flashbacks suddenly start before my eyes?
"Ah!" She closed her eyes in horror.
If the weapon she used was a bug stick, she should have been able to dodge it, but unfortunately she only had an ordinary stick in her hand.
"Um?"
Andre discovered Melgar's "missile" and kicked away the limb-replacement noble's shield with all his strength. While the other party was stiff, he slapped Melgar back with a slap. At this time, a pair of wizard's hands caught her steadily while she was flying and pulled her away from the battlefield.
“Will you dare to run around again next time?” Weienma glared at her.
"No, I don't dare anymore." Melga shivered and it would probably take him a while to recover.
"Gah!"
The limb-jointed noble suddenly screamed and finally broke free from the restraints. It ran towards the distance of freedom and escaped directly.
The result was a victory for boxing.
"Too amazing." The other elves were all amazed at Andre's strength and were about to go up to talk to him, but he didn't even look at them. He turned around and walked away, muttering "Where's my hammer?"
Hammer? Could he be Andre the blacksmith?
Melgar immediately stood up, took out the hammer that the gangster gave her from her arms, and shouted: "Here is your hammer!"
Hearing this, Andre quickly appeared in front of her. His tall figure brought a full sense of oppression, forcing her to take a step back.
Is this guy really a blacksmith? Does he mean he is a craftsman who treats monsters as if they were iron to be forged?
"It's really my hammer. Where did you find it?" Andre took the hammer and looked at it carefully, showing a surprised expression.
I guessed it right! Melgar suddenly felt that it was such a coincidence, and this fate was really wonderful. He immediately told everything he knew.
The elves looked at her nervously, afraid that she might say something wrong and be attacked by Andre. After all, the strength of this shirtless man was obvious to everyone.
After listening to her whole story, Andre laughed heartily.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect to leave it there. I've lived too long and have become confused. Thank you so much for helping me find the hammer."
“This is what we should do.”
Melgar showed an expectant look. This could be considered as completing the afterimage event. Would he get any reward?
Could it be that I was taught the blacksmith's boxing skills? Although I have no interest in boxing, I will accept any powerful moves.
"I'm Andre, just an ordinary blacksmith,"
Andre put the hammer in his pocket and said:
"Now that I've found the hammer, I should go back to the blacksmith shop and continue working. As a reward, how about I help you forge the weapons in your hands for free?"
Forging weapons? This is a statement that really fits the identity of a blacksmith.
Hearing this, some of the elves showed interest, because he was also a weapon forger.
Since he is so good at boxing, his blacksmithing skills should be good too. Melgar thought this reward was not bad and readily agreed.
"Well, I'm going back to the town in front of the academy next. Come find me when you want to forge weapons."
Andre turned and left, looking quite happy to have found his hammer.
Melgar suddenly remembered that the gangster had told them to invite the blacksmith to have a lobster dinner with them if they found him.
She turned around and exchanged glances with everyone. As long as they followed Andre, they could reach the town in front of the college.
It takes no effort!
After Kennedy's skull was knocked off, someone immediately crawled over to pick it up. So the question is, is his skull considered a decoy skull?
