A man and a beast looked at each other like this:.
Ivan held the sword motionless, his back already wet with sweat.
It's been so long; why hasn't the Shadow Leopard taken the initiative to attack?
The shadow leopard stood there looking at Alvin, yawning from time to time, revealing a scarlet tongue and a pair of white dagger-like teeth.
It's definitely not possible to just waste time with it here, you have to take the initiative!
Having made up his mind, Aiwen observed the shadow leopard in front of him more attentively, and took advantage of the moment it lowered its head: now!
Ai Wen suddenly burst out and rushed in front of the Shadow Leopard. He stabbed the dagger in his hand hard at its head, hoping to kill it with one blow!
However, the reality is cruel. Faced with Ivan's attack, Shadow Leopard took a step back with an astonishing reaction and dodged the dagger. At the same time, his front paws grabbed Ivan's other arm!
He rolled back in embarrassment and spat out the grass blades in his mouth, but Aiwen launched another attack, the man-made sword constantly competing with the claws sharpened by nature.
Only a moment later, several scratches appeared on Alvin's chest and arms. Although they were not fatal, the scratches continued to hurt, impacting Alvin's nerves!
In exchange, a bloodstain appeared next to Shadow Leopard's right eye: Alvin almost succeeded!
Taking a deep breath, Ivan launched another attack, stabbing the dagger towards the Shadow Leopard's fatal spot. The air twisted, and the Shadow Leopard disappeared out of thin air!
Ivan ran over and waved his dagger, but the Shadow Leopard disappeared without a trace!
Did you run away? Alvin stood there. Suddenly, just like at the beginning, the Shadow Leopard appeared out of thin air again!
Ivan was caught off guard and could only protect his head with a dagger in a hurry!
The huge body impacted Ivan, and Shadow Leopard grabbed Ivan with his claws and threw him out. He fell heavily to the ground, followed by another fierce attack!
Another lazy donkey rolled and hid, and Alvin quickly stood up. The clothes he was wearing had been scratched by the shadow leopard and were in tatters!
The pain in his body continued to stimulate Aiwen, and Shadow Leopard pounced on Aiwen again when he saw his condition.
"Draft it? Let's fight!" Ivan shouted, facing the sharp claws. He rushed forward!
The back hit the shadow leopard with all its strength, and Ivan, who had no armor to defend himself, was suddenly torn open with three deep wounds!
Enduring the severe pain in his back, Ivan used strength again and knocked Shadow Leopard to the ground!
Letting out a whimper, it understood that the person in front of it was someone not to be trifled with. It turned over and prepared to escape. Ivan tensed his muscles: He still wanted to run! ?
Regardless of the condition of the wound, Aiwen picked up the dagger and chased after him!
The shadow leopard repeated its old tricks, the air around its body twisted again, and it was about to disappear into the air again!
Ivan's heart was as urgent as fire, and he kicked his legs with all his strength. The huge reaction force sent his body into the air, and a deep footprint appeared on the hard ground!
Drawing a parabola in the air, Ivan landed exactly where the Shadow Leopard was about to disappear. He roared and grabbed the Shadow Leopard's tail, pulling out its entire body that was about to disappear!
The shadow leopard opened its bloody mouth and turned around to bite Ivan's head. However, Ivan climbed onto its back, held the dagger in both hands, and stabbed the shadow leopard hard in the eyes!
The body that was struggling like crazy suddenly stopped, but Aiwen still held the hilt of the sword tightly, his hands soaked with blood, and he lay on the shadow leopard's body. The dagger penetrated its brain, and no animal can suffer serious damage to the brain. Not dead yet!
The temperature under his body gradually dropped, and Ivan slowly climbed up. His hands were sticky and smelled of fish. He tried to pull out the dagger with force, but the hilt was very lubricated. He tried several times without success. .
Looking at the silent surroundings, Ivan was worried that the strong smell of blood would attract other beasts, so he had to carry the entire leopard carcass on his shoulders.
After stumbling down the mountain, it was already late at night when we arrived at the village!
After throwing the leopard carcass in the small square in the center of the village, Ivan was exhausted, so he just laid on the fur and fell asleep.
Alvin slept in the soft fur on the shadow leopard's belly all night.
In the early morning, the first villager to walk out of his house went for a walk in the small square. When he looked up, he saw a huge shadow leopard lying in the middle of the square!
Ivan felt someone poking his nostrils, and he opened his eyes with some difficulty: What appeared in front of him were Wendy's big, bright eyes.
"Wendy...you woke me up from my sleep again!" Ivan said in a depressed voice as he pushed aside the grass branches in front of him.
"Of course I didn't mean it!" Wendy shouted.
Ai Wen raised his head. A large number of villagers had gathered in the small square, and everyone was discussing the shadow leopard.
Slowly sitting up, Alvin smelled his creaking nest. The smell of sweat combined with the smell of blood overnight made him unbearable!
Quickly crawl out of the shadow leopard's body. Captain Murphy was already sitting on a chair on the side waiting for Alvin: "I asked Wendy to wake you up!"
Captain Murphy stood up, came closer, and said to Ivan: "I thought you were just going up the mountain to check on the spot, but I didn't expect you to bring Narova's body back!"
"Isn't this an ordinary shadow leopard?" Ivan asked, scratching his head. He felt that his scalp was itchy, maybe there were lice on it.
"You can tell by its size that this is no ordinary shadow leopard. Before I came to Dawn Village, Narova was already famous in the village!"
"It came and went without a trace, causing the village to lose countless sheep. Many master hunters once came here just to catch it! You did what they failed to do!"
Alvin thought to himself: Do I still have the talent to be a hunter?
Captain Murphy saw that he was a little distracted and patted Ivan on the shoulder: "Let's not talk about Narova for now. What you have to do now is take a shower. Look at your clothes. I can already guess what happened in the battle last night. It's so intense!"
Ivan stood up, with deep wounds left on his back and other parts of his body by Narova's claws! Captain Murphy picked up the Holy Deed and applied a series of holy light spells to Ivan. The pain caused by the scratches slowly disappeared!
"Go take a shower first. I will dispose of Narova's body properly. There will be a result you are satisfied with!" Captain Murphy smiled and patted Ivan's shoulder again.
…
I took a hot shower and put on clean clothes.
Ivan was checking the wounds that had been treated by Captain Murphy. A voice came from outside the door: "Ivan is at home? Captain Murphy asked me to call you to the meeting hall!" Ivan looked out the window and it turned out to be the garrison team. One of the team members: "Thank you for reminding me, I will rush there right away!"
After closing the door, Ivan immediately ran towards the meeting hall.
Walking into the conference hall, Ivan found that there were already many people in the room: Captain Murphy, Priest Minara, and someone Ivan didn't know appeared on the forum together: The man's beard and hair were white, and he was named Ereda. In terms of human lifespan, God knows how old he is!
Captain Murphy saw Ivan as soon as he entered the door: "Ivan, come here!" Captain Murphy waved his hand vigorously to signal Ivan.
When Ivan came to the forum, Captain Murphy patted the table: Please be quiet. I summoned everyone today to announce that Ivan killed Narova.
Captain Murphy shouted, and several guardsmen from next door worked together to carry Narova's body to the meeting hall.
With a bang, Narova's heavy body was thrown to the ground, and the meeting hall fell silent!
