Demon Hunter: I have a red gourd

Chapter 17 Wolf Assassin

After eating and drinking, Philip went to find his fiancée Anna, while Ivan knelt on the soft bed in the room, closing his eyes and meditating.

The silver sword and armor are being repaired at the blacksmith shop, and there's nothing else for me to do right now, so I might as well continue challenging the dungeon.

With Guangzhi's strength, it doesn't matter whether he wears armor or not. If he gets hit, he will be killed instantly without using Quen.

[System, I want to challenge the copy: Guangzhi].

Opening his eyes, Ivan found himself back in the lush courtyard.

The wolf demon in monk's robes was still sitting cross-legged on the cushion at one end, silently reciting scriptures with his eyes closed.

Is the system simulating a simple copy, or a complete world? This thought suddenly occurred to Ivan.

If it is a complete world, then it is necessary to explore it.

After all, the Black Monkey World and the Demon Hunter World are two completely different levels of power.

If one could find elixirs, immortal wines, or even martial arts techniques here, then returning to the Demon Hunter world would be like a direct dimensionality reduction attack, wouldn't it?
So this time, he did not choose to walk towards Guangzhi, but instead slowly retreated until he reached the outside of the courtyard.

"I can actually get out!" Ivan's eyes lit up with excitement. He looked around. The towering courtyard walls were covered with green ivy, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of green grass.

He walked forward. The path under his feet was dappled with sunlight, and a few birdsongs could be heard faintly in the distance.

He had not taken a few steps when he suddenly heard the sound of wind. Ivan instantly felt the approaching crisis and subconsciously raised the Quinn shield.

The golden shield formed a circular protective layer around him, and Ivan quickly turned his head to look at the source of the wind sound.

"Dang, dang, dang!" Several darts hit the shield and bounced weakly to the ground, making crisp impact sounds.

Ivan stared into the distance, only to see a wolf demon lurking in the shadows. He had thrown the dart just now. It was very thin, much smaller than Guangzhi, and held a double-edged dagger in its hand. It looked like an agile enemy.

"Are there other monsters?" Ivan assumed a fighting stance and slowly drew the steel sword from behind him.

The wolf demon let out a deep roar and transformed into a dark shadow, rushing towards Ivan. Its movements were so fast that it was almost impossible to see its trajectory. The dagger in its hand flashed a cold light in the sunlight.

However, Ivan was no longer the same person he had been before. He twisted his wrist, and the steel sword drew a semicircle, accurately blocking the lightning-fast knife. At the same time, his other hand struck the wolf demon's abdomen with the force of lightning.

boom!
The shockwave sent the small wolf demon flying, sending it tumbling into a nearby tree. It seemed completely unprepared for Ivan's attack, and the brief dizziness slowed its movements.

Ivan would not miss this opportunity. He quickly approached and swung his sword straight at the wolf demon's neck. However, it woke up at the last moment and quickly rolled over to avoid the attack. The steel sword slashed the ground, splashing a cloud of mud.

"Not bad, quite agile." Ivan smiled and quickly took a step back. He raised his left hand and changed his gesture. "So, can you dodge this move?"

Before he finished speaking, a fan-shaped flame gushed out from his hand, instantly igniting the wolf demon's hair, and the flames illuminated the surrounding shadows.

The Griffin School's ability to control sigils is the best among all schools. For the Igni Seal that releases fire, Ivan can not only condense the flames into strands to enhance the power and duration; he can also release them in a fan shape as he is doing now to increase the attack area.

The wolf demon screamed as it was driven back by the flames, waving its dagger wildly in an attempt to fight back. In the firelight, Ivan slashed down with his sword, directly severing one of its arms.

The wolf demon, having lost an arm, completely lost its threat and tried to escape, but Ivan would not give it this chance.

He rushed forward, and the steel sword stabbed straight from above, accurately piercing the wolf demon's chest.

The wolf demon let out a final howl, then collapsed to the ground, the light in his eyes gradually dimming.

Ivan picked up the red gourd hanging around his waist and uncorked the bottle.

[Spiritual Essence +400, Unlock Avatar: Wolf Assassin]

"So much spiritual essence? And he actually unlocked the avatar right away!" Ivan was shocked, unable to hide his surprise. An ordinary water ghost only had 10 spiritual essence points, and his points were accumulated from killing water ghosts over the past three months.

And now, this little demon doesn't seem to be several times stronger than the water ghost, but its spiritual essence is as high as 400!

Can you say it's worthy of being a system-produced copy? I made a killing!

With a slight sound, smoke rose, and Ivan turned directly into the appearance of the wolf demon he had just killed.

"What a lithe body!" Ivan hopped a few times, quickly adapting to the wolf assassin's shape and movements. The flexibility of his bones and the elasticity of his muscles made him look satisfied.

He glanced around, his eyes fixed on the towering courtyard wall, then suddenly moved close to the wall, his fingers and claws deftly grasping the cracks in the rough bricks and stones, and his body climbed up the wall like a lizard.

The Wolf Assassin's lightness and agility grant him an almost uncanny ability to move, each step silent and leaving no trace. Perhaps the agility of a Cat School demon hunter is no more than this.

After climbing to the top of the wall, he grabbed the eaves with both hands, jumped lightly, and stood steadily on it.

Ivan tried to adjust his posture, feeling the balance of this body at a high altitude. Every inch of muscle was obeying his will. This was a feeling he had never experienced before, even after he mutated and became a demon hunter.

Not far away, several jars were quietly arranged in the open space. He pulled out the dart from his waist, narrowed his eyes, and shook his wrist lightly.

The darts cut through the air like an arrow, hitting all the jars accurately. With crisp cracking sounds, pottery fragments scattered everywhere.

"Sure enough, this body was born for assassination." Ivan muttered to himself, then jumped down from the high wall. When he landed, he rolled lightly to relieve the impact. His movements were smooth as if it was instinct.

He chose a direction and rushed forward quickly before the incarnation lasted.

I just stepped out of the house and encountered such a surprise. If I could explore the whole world, how much would I gain?

After running about two hundred meters, Ivan was moving at full speed when suddenly an invisible force blocked his path. He was caught off guard and crashed into it with a dull thud, as if he had hit a solid wall.

Ivan was knocked back a few steps, raised his hand to rub his forehead, and looked at the empty space in front of him in astonishment.
