Bear School Astartes-Chapter 771 - 754. Dragon Jade Burning

The current situation is one of the most difficult to handle during a confrontation.

It’s like two boxers getting into the ring, differences in tactics, technique, and style can be easily managed.

As you fight, you can adapt more.

But if suddenly one side takes steroids directly on the platform or drastically raises their weight class...

This situation can’t be dealt with by ’adapting while fighting,’ if mishandled, you might be crushed to death!

Within the , Lann maintains the magic seal with one hand while pulling out a cone-shaped crystal from the alchemy pouch with the other, handing it to the now slightly recovered Three-Floral Kitten.

"Kitten, I need you to hold this, soon..."

The deer-headed beast’s sonic attack immediately consumes one of the dragon jades in its body.

Immediately after, it embraces its arms and vanishes into a cloud of black mist again.

With the oppressive use of dragon jade, the deer-headed beast gains a comprehensive enhancement.

Its teleportation is extremely abrupt, with agility far surpassing before.

When it reappears, the deer-headed beast is already standing behind the thin layer of golden shield.

It seems to replay its trick, raising one claw high, as if preparing to smash the ground.

Then, the raised claw directly descends onto Lann’s !

But this time, the motion is at more than double the speed of before!

The Demon Hunter’s trick is like a thin veil in the face of such level power.

In an instant, the explosive sound of the shattered magic seal erupts.

Even with the Demon Hunter’s neural reflex, it only allows him to react at the last moment to the deer-headed beast’s surge in speed.

He can only instinctively kick the Three-Floral Kitten at his feet in the opposite direction and then uses the explosive recoil of to sidestep.

Lann, flung by the recoil, is about to draw the Lady of the Lake’s Sword from his waist.

But the bright silver light stubbornly refuses to flow out from the scabbard. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Because before Lann’s hand could grasp the hilt, the deer-headed beast, fixated on him, had already pressed its skeletal claw onto his wrist.

The Grandmaster effect of the Bear School armor is triggered on Lann for the first time.

This effect is: When breaks, the scattered magic power is recycled, and when sufficient, a new is automatically generated.

Prior to this, after obtaining this Grandmaster armor, Lann had never encountered an enemy that could break his and leave him no reaction time to set up another one!

Under the , the deer-headed beast’s capabilities are amplified to a terrifying degree!

Thankfully, the Grandmaster armor of the Bear School prevents the deer-headed beast’s ability from taking effect, which automatically grows roots into the enemy’s body upon contact.

While killing the roar dragon with two jabs, the deer-headed beast grows roots into its body weighing at least several tons, forcibly separating the skin from the subcutaneous muscles.

But on a creature of Lann’s size, it probably only needs to grow tens of kilograms of roots to completely destroy Lann’s body’s structure.

Now, the tiny roots composed of chaos magic power are blocked outside by the magic of . Although they continuously emit ’crackling’ sounds, and the bone in his wrist moans due to the enormous grip, at least it hasn’t shattered.

Lann’s right hand is pinned by the deer-headed beast, but as it is about to smash this Demon Hunter, Lann deftly releases his grip on the hilt.

Moving his right hand, which was holding Aron Dite’s hilt outward, his left hand catches the trajectory just right and draws the bright blade in reverse.

With a crisp, sharp ’whoosh’, he reverses his grip, slicing upwards from below, severing the deer-headed beast’s arm at the elbow that was holding Lann’s wrist!

The divine power within the Lady of the Lake’s Sword, even without any added moves, can cause significant pain to an ancient evil like the deer-headed beast.

On his arm, the pressure exploding from continues, Lann shakes his hand forcefully to free his wrist from the beast’s claw.

Meanwhile, the Three-Floral Kitten, kicked aside by Lann, also lets out a "meow!"

Leaping onto the deer-headed beast’s shoulder from behind, wielding weapons in a frantic scratch.

The deer-headed beast shows no concern for this kitten’s attack, it could stand and let it hit all day.

But as the deer-headed beast considers it an ’important asset,’ it wants the kitten to stay alive.

Bothered by the kitten’s antics, the deer-headed beast waves a claw, and the heightened magic power effortlessly sprouts extraordinarily durable roots from within the rocks.

These roots break through the surface leisurely, thus lack the lethality.

They merely lift, bind, and suspend the fluff ball in mid-air.

The furry Three-Floral Kitten’s limbs struggle on the roots, ’meow-meowing’ furiously yet helplessly against them.

Simultaneously, the large-scale roots generated by the tremendous magic power encircle the space Lann maneuvers, trapping him inside.

The deer-headed beast’s severed arm regrows through the twisting of vines.

Meanwhile, his body continuously opens and closes its claw, driving towards the trapped Lann.

The claw that constantly loosens and tightens seems to gleamingly convey to Lann: I don’t plan to let you die easily.

Surrounded by enemy roots, Lann does not show the desperation and frenzy the deer-headed beast anticipates.

In contrast, after examining the approaching deer-headed beast with his deep eyes, the Demon Hunter puts his long sword back into its sheath.

Has he given up resisting?

The deer-headed beast tilts his head, the hollow eye sockets in the stag’s skull lock onto Lann.

Its life is long and rich with experiences, enough intelligent beings have died in its forest to build a substantial graveyard.

It had seen various humans’ reactions when death was upon them.

But this time is different...

After sheathing his long sword, the Demon Hunter begins to loosen his neck, and shoulders seemingly relaxing after intense exercise.

Even so, everything truly is not over yet.

Under the deer-headed head skull, the sound of cold wind whines, even with its current explosive enhancement, it starts feeling a bit cautious.

"You feel something’s off?"

Lann speaks with a smile, seemingly understanding the deer-headed beast’s emotion from that white skeletal face.

"But the question is: why do you think... I would act alarmingly before my plan is completed?"

Seeing the Demon Hunter smile, the deer-headed beast suddenly senses uncontrollable stiffness in its rear shoulder!
