Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 21 21. Skill Analysis

With two snaps, Lane and Bernie jumped from the boat into the muddy beach.

"This is where fish schools are abundant outside the fishing ground. It's easy for you to find water ghosts here. Those beasts don't even bother to avoid people now."

Lan En's nose fluttered, and all kinds of fishy smells were mixed in the steamy wind.

The smell of the tidal flat is not good, fishy, ​​bloody, seay
If you change to a pampered master, you can let him eat breakfast for nothing at the first breath.

Through the witcher's mutated senses, he could feel these scents lingering around him like a multicolored halo.

Finally, after careful discrimination, he chose his target from among them.

——A disgusting smell like fish, shrimp, and seaweed mixed together and rotting.

This is the smell of water ghosts.

After concentrating on one scent, the air distributed by this scent is like a streamer, which is "highlighted" in the demon hunter's field of vision.

The rest of the messy smell is filtered out.

Of course, being able to find the correct trace so easily is also thanks to the frequent activities of this group of water ghosts, which caused the smell of this place to be too fresh.

Logically speaking, these smells alone were enough for Lan En to find the group of water ghosts directly.

But he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he turned around and asked Bernie, who had already started to remove the bow and arrow from his back.

"Can you track down the group of water ghosts?"

Bernie glanced at the young man in surprise, isn't this your job?
But didn't say much.

"These obvious footprints, as well as the broken scales of the water ghost, but any individual will do."

"." Mentos in his mind issued a series of ellipsis with unknown meaning.

Lan En looked at the tidal flat in front of him expressionlessly.

All kinds of strange messy marks are scattered on the black and smelly mud.

Caused by wild animals, drifting objects, and water ghosts.
In the eyes of those who have no tracking experience, this is just a mess of mud.

The scales of the water ghost were indistinguishable from the scales of the fish, and the so-called "obvious footprints" could not be seen under the clutter of traces.

I'm really sorry for myself!

The corner of Lan En's mouth twitched faintly.

"Very well, I need to adjust my combat status, and I will leave the tracking work to you."

There wasn't too much explanation, and it happened that Bernie didn't want to ask too much. Anyway, this job was actually very easy for him.

So the man with long leather gloves came forward and began to naturally survey various traces, and use them to formulate the direction of travel.

In Lan En's mind, Mentos also started to work according to Lan En's plan.

"New Analysis Item - [Trace Detection]

Skill Source - [Fisherman Bernie]

In the process of information integration and analysis, the current progress is 1%. "

"The results of the analysis will be passed on to me in the evening. I don't want to be overwhelmed like a shaken Coke bottle when I deal with water ghosts."

"Yes, sir."

Mentos' intelligent voice is as good as it sounds.

The process of transferring knowledge by the intellectual brain cannot be changed because it has no authority.Suffering is certain.

But it’s okay to pick a time to suffer.

The communication in my mind was very fast, and Bernie was still looking down on the mud.

Lan En didn't understand at all why he could always get rid of various subtle traces.

For example, seeing a shallow scratch on the mud, or finding clues in the pile of footprints that have already been messed up, and then adjusting the direction decisively.

The adjustment in that direction was much more precise than the scent he caught with the witcher's sense of smell.

Lan En followed behind and sighed. The extraordinary senses also need knowledge and experience to use them more efficiently.

Every qualified demon hunter is an out-and-out master of pursuit.

Although I don't regret killing my teacher myself, but because of this, I need to make up for my lack of experience and ability.

In a world with backward productivity, even the crafts of butchers cutting meat and coopers hooping wooden barrels are inherited from family, or can only be learned by apprentices with money and effort.

Not to mention hunting and tracking, the ability to feed a large family.

But fortunately, Lan En's good partner allowed him to extract and summarize nutritious knowledge only by reading.

"Your tracking method seems to be different from mine."

Following Bernie, Lan En tried his best to pretend to be knowledgeable.

Whether it is right or not, anyway, confidence is enough!
"It's like just now, you are looking at the scratch on the mud, and we usually focus on the mess next to it."

Bernie thought back to the "messy" that came out of the young man's mouth.

Isn't that the trace of dead fish or rotten meat or something, dragged into the hole by crabs?

What use is this for tracking water ghosts?

Bernie had doubts, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense.

After all, who knows what the tracking skills of other demon hunters are?

Maybe they can use crabs for divination?
"The scratches are the traces of the water ghost's toes rubbing against the ground. There are webs in their fingers, and the traces are obviously different."

Bernie answered questions honestly.

"[Trace Detection] is undergoing skill calibration

In the process of information integration and analysis, the current progress is 9%. "

"Sir, I advise you to keep trying to ask questions."

The beep of Mentos put Lan En in a good mood.

Of course, the brain can extract a skill from a person just by observing, but if the skill holder explains the skill information, the progress bar will of course accumulate faster.

But Lan En didn't intend to keep asking.

Asking a sentence or two is a technical exchange. If you ask too many questions, doesn't it mean that you don't know anything?Pure and pure.

The tracking process was not long, and when they arrived at the small slope about 200 meters away from the place where they landed, the chirping of the water ghost could be easily heard by ordinary people.

After crossing this slope, you should be able to see groups of monsters.

Bernie turned to look at Lan En, the meaning was obvious——

Then it's your job.

The young man was completely different from the previous tracking process, and stepped forward without hesitation.

The bright silver sword of the Xiong School was unsheathed amidst the low and gentle sound of metal friction.

The gentle voice indicated that the hand holding the sword was very stable, and even Bernie felt a sense of peace of mind.

"Put away your bow, there are only five water ghosts in total, I can handle them. We have never cooperated, and your arrows may interfere with me instead."

So Bernie put the bow and arrow back on his back.

He used to have some doubts about Lan En's tracking skills along the way, but now that the young man directly stated the exact number of these water ghosts, he completely threw away his doubts.

The young man walked unhurriedly through the small slope, gesturing in front of him with his free left hand.

The golden magic aura was fleeting, and a magic rune of the same color began to wander around Lan En's body.

"Queen."

Lan En, who changed his outfit all over, planned to use a more aggressive fighting style this time.

The good equipment gave him a lot of confidence.

In this case, the spherical [Quen] of applied school knowledge is not suitable, but the original version is more beneficial.

The screaming at the bottom of the small slope was suddenly quiet, and five pairs of dead fish eyes without eyelids stared round, looking at the figure slowly walking down the slope.

then
"Wow!!!"*5
