As agreed before the fight started, Cardiff allowed Kroger to strike three full blows. And at the end of the three strikes, he punched back.
Kroger the Butcher was defeated, defeated by the power of no pretense. He was upright, aboveboard, and most powerless.
This also shows the huge gap between the two.
At the edge of the dojo, Kroger pressed his right hand heavily on the handle of the black butcher knife. He couldn't help but feel helpless in his heart that he was indeed old. If he was still in his prime, the outcome was still uncertain. He paused slightly,
Suddenly I realized that I seemed to have put Ka Xiu and his peak strength on the same level for comparison.
This is a subconscious recognition.
To put it simply, Kroger the Butcher was defeated with one punch.
Not far away, the tall figure on the ring walked over step by step.
His back is to the circular sunlight behind him, and the black outlines on his neck and shoulders look even more rugged and tough, further highlighting his strong inverted triangle figure. This is already a perfect body structure in a certain sense.
Including Herb, the five people's eyes were filled with a hint of surprise.
Herb always knew that Ka Xiu was not weak and had a mysterious trump card hidden in the dark. But he did not expect that such a situation would occur today.
He originally thought that Card Xiu could at most compete with Kroger, who had retained his strength, for a while. He showed his outstanding talents and won the appreciation of many old hunters.
Unexpectedly, in the face of the neutral faction of the old hunters, Kroger, the former number one shadow hunter butcher, was killed by Cardiff in front of him.
This was far beyond what Herb had originally envisioned.
Next to her, Fengyu Elaine has not come back to her senses until now. She looked at Kaxiu who was walking step by step like an iron tower, and cursed in her heart.
The rumors coming out of the headquarters of the Dark Hunting Organization are getting more and more bottomless. How can a master of Ka Xiu's level still be afraid of royal assassination and assassination?
In addition, the identity of this black and bronze hunter is also speechless. Being able to defeat Butcher Kroger's butcher's knife head-on in a one-on-one discussion, isn't this the strength of a shadow hunter? What is this? A black and bronze hunter, white
Yao level hunter, dark gold level hunter, shadow level hunter.
It spans almost half of the hunter levels in the hunter association.
That’s not how you hide your strength. Shadow-level hunters wear the skin of a black and bronze-level hunter and specialize in fishing. Elaine was a little angry because she almost became that fish. As her thoughts changed, Elaine recalled the time before Herb
What he said on the stairs, the original unclear logic of Jue Li suddenly became clear. Herb said that he couldn't teach Ka Xiu at all, it was true.
Even Kroger, who was once the strongest, couldn't be Cardiff's teacher.
In the entire dark hunting organization, I am afraid that only the Shenghui Hunters and the Black Agency Chiefs have this qualification. As for the other strong men, they can only be considered as equals.
Beside, under Jem's iron mask, his expression gradually became fixed.
"With such strength now, the Shadow Hunter seat is definitely within his grasp. In fact, in another five to ten years, he has the hope of becoming a Holy Hunter. Twenty years later, he will be the only one who will be the head of the Black Agency.
Given his position, it is not impossible to command the entire empire’s dark hunting organization.”
Kames, the combat sword, had the same idea, and narrowed his right eye slightly.
"Snapped."
His shoes hit the ground, and Ka Xiu stopped in front of him like a statue.
Butcher Kroger put away his butcher knife and stepped forward with a depressed expression: "I really can't be your teacher. You are much better than I thought..."
"In one month, the Shadow Hunter position will definitely be yours."
His tone was affirmative, and his expression was filled with relief. The relief was because the card repair supported by the old hunters had a high probability of becoming a shadow hunter. The disappointment was also simple, no one likes to be defeated by the juniors face to face.
Just when Kroger looked complicated, Card Xiu suddenly said.
"Do you feel it?"
"What?" Kroger was slightly startled.
He looked down at the fist marks and bruises on his chest and said doubtfully.
"Did you show mercy just now? I know this, you... hmm?"
Kroger suddenly realized something. He quickly looked down at his heart. The black liquid that the butcher knife had transformed into quietly gathered into a ball.
"The side effects of an all-out explosion are gone!?" Lan
Kroger was once a shadow hunter. He was very powerful, and the calamity accumulated in his body was also deep enough. When he was young and strong, it was nothing. Once he got old and frail, the calamity became somewhat uncontrollable.
Especially when Kroger fights with all his strength, the beast transformation caused by the disaster will almost bottom out. But just now, he not only used the Iron Fist with 100% effort, but also used the strongest move at his peak.
Butcher's knife. After the battle, Kroger's ability to suppress the disaster in his body should be reduced to a minimum. Even if he has a strong will, he will inevitably lose his mind and become irritable and violent for a short period of time. But now, he feels nothing.
His heart was quiet, even with a hint of bitterness after defeat. The tendency of the black fluid that should have covered his body and turned into a metal destroyer to attack did not appear. He quickly sensed his body.
"The disaster accumulated in the body has been reduced?!"
This is definitely a surprising discovery! It is not that the Dark Hunting Organization has not studied the beastization of hunters, but there is no way to solve the problem from the root. It can only suppress the symptoms but not the root cause.
The reduction of disasters is undoubtedly a fundamental way to curb the beastization.
"You..." Kroger looked forward with a shocked face.
"I don't know...have you ever heard of Miwu?"
****************************
Half an hour later, both Kroger and Kashu put on new clothes.
Moreover, they discussed many things with each other, including but not limited to the secret martial arts world of the Empire, dark creatures, dark hunting organizations, holy spring water...
It was necessary for Cardiff to show his ability to expel the disasters accumulated in the bodies of these old hunters. However, he did not say it was the effect of the wisdom runes. Instead, he attributed it to the magical secret martial arts.
Anyway, the effects of secret martial arts are all kinds of strange. Some mysterious ancient inheritances are even more strange, such as the hand of the black devil that can absorb life.
It’s not surprising that a secret weapon that can ward off disasters will appear.
After all, no one in the secret martial arts community of the Hongli Empire knows how many secret martial arts techniques are inherited and how effective they are. Let alone the secret hunting organization.
In addition, Card Xiu also changed the conditions for the secret weapon to be more reasonable. He said that he and the old hunter must compete and fight, and the disaster in the old hunter's body was automatically stimulated without the instinctive suppression. Card Xiu took action at this time
, so that you can blast it out in one move.
In fact, the basic conditions of this statement are correct, but the process is wrong. If the old hunters want to activate the disaster, they do not necessarily have to fight with Card Xiu. They only need to consume their own strength until they can no longer suppress the disaster.
.And when Card Xiu took action, he did not blast out the disaster through the power of the secret weapon, but directly absorbed the disaster airflow overflowing from the body surface.
In short, Card Xiu gained the trust of this group of old hunters.
Throughout the afternoon, in the ring deep in the dojo, there were constant figures competing.
Iron Face Jem, War Sword Kames, Wind Whisperer Elaine, and even Blood Ax Hebdu all had a friendly discussion between seniors and juniors with Card Xiu.
At first, each person goes up one by one, taking turns to recover their physical strength.
Later, a group of people came together, which was more efficient.
There is no doubt that whether it is one by one or five people attacking, the result will not change. After the battle, the only figure standing in the ring will always be Ka Xiu, as if he is on an unshakable peak.
Being besieged by four dark gold-level hunters has a pretty good training effect on the soaring physical strength. Don't get me wrong, this is not referring to the fact that five old hunters join forces to pose a threat to Card Xiu and can evenly defeat him. It is to talk about how Card Xiu can fight in one afternoon.
In a period of time, he could defeat these old hunters hundreds of times and still be able to control his strength. He would not use excessive force and directly break one of the old bones into pieces, causing accidental casualties.
In the dojo, five figures fell around the ring.
Only Ka Xiu's tall body still stood firmly in the middle.
"Is this your limit? It's a bit disappointing..."
His indifferent gaze swept over the people on the ground, and his tone was serious like that of an instructor. Card Xiu did not hesitate to criticize, even though these people were already in their seventies and eighties, they were seniors with a glorious past. The opportunity to eliminate the influence of disaster and beast transformation was right in front of him.
, they couldn't continue to get up. You know, concentrated will can break through the stubborn stone. After just one afternoon of sparring, is the physical strength almost unbearable? Lan
What Card Xiu did this afternoon was at the request of these old hunters. Kroger and the others said they would keep fighting until Card Xiu had no strength left, and also proposed strategies such as wheel battles and group fights.
At that time, the five old hunters were still very excited. After all, they finally saw the hope of getting rid of the physical disaster. There was excitement in their eyes.
But now, it's like a puddle of dead fish, losing its highlights.
"Cough cough cough..."
On the ground, Kroger's limbs twitched and he took a deep breath.
"Give us another five minutes..."
Next to him, Kames gritted his teeth and quickly regained his strength. It was really embarrassing to be scolded by a junior. But who told them to boast about Haikou a few hours ago, and even shamelessly used siege tactics later.
I didn’t even want to show off my old face, but it still didn’t end with dignity.
On the side, Elaine complained in her heart.
Who knew that Ka Xiu's physical strength was as endless as that of a monster.
It's hard to show fatigue after four or five hours of high-frequency fighting without rest.
All I can say is that there are too many "surprises" in Kaxiu's body.
The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and there was a faint smell of grass in the air. The southeastern location of the Hunter Association was the house of the old hunter Herb.
A bald old man with a cane appeared at the door.
He knocked gently.
With a creak, the door opened.
An old face poked out, with a bruise around the eye socket.
None other than Butcher Kroger.
"Hey, what? Did you get beaten?"
The old man with a cane said strangely, with a surprised smile on his face.
"Hey, Rudy, please come in first..." Lan
Kroger shook his head and turned to lead the way.
The two came to the second floor, and Rudy met the remaining old hunters.
They all looked half-dead, lying motionless on the sofa. Some wanted to moisten their mouths with tea, but raised their hands and put them down again.
"What's wrong? Everyone, after not seeing each other for a few years, is it like dying?"
Rudy is also an old hunter. It can even be said that he is the oldest of all the people here, almost eighty years old. As a result, when we met today, we felt that everyone was much older and more tired than him.
He knew everyone here well, so he didn't mind joking.
"Hahaha, Elaine, why is your face swollen? Who disrespects the elderly so much?" After hearing this, Elaine's eyelids twitched and she tilted her head.
"Hey Kames, why are you limping? Isn't it possible that your legs are broken? You are so old and you can do so much." Kames remained silent after hearing this.
"Boy Jem, aren't you just fifty? Last time we met, your arms and legs were still strong. Why is it so difficult to pour a cup of tea now?"
Jem glanced at Rudy, and he didn't know what expression was behind the mask.
In a short period of time, Rudy made fun of everyone present.
Except for Herb. It's not that they don't know each other well, but they know each other too well.
Last month, the two brothers were drinking in a pub in Feilengcui.
Rudy walked step by step to the middle of the living room with a cane, and glanced at everyone with a somewhat gloating look: "Hey, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are all here..." Lan
At noon, on the second floor.
An old figure occupied the entire sofa, and the sound of sighs filled the living room: "Oh, oh, oh...my hands, my old waist, my feet. My old bones are going to fall apart, this brat
…”
"You were told to fight for four hours, but you really held me back and fought for four hours! I'm eighty years old, how can I compare with your body like an animal... Good guy, it's more exciting than gambling with your life when you were young.
It’s also tiring…”
The other two sofas were filled with other tired old hunters.
Although they were feeling sore, their eyes looked at the miserable state of Rudy who was about to lose his breath, and their ears listened to the endless moaning. They felt inexplicably much better, and they always felt that there was a surge of strength in their bodies.
After a short rest, the old hunters finally recovered most of their strength.
Either eat, sleep, or take a bath.
Suddenly, there was another knock on the door on the first floor.
Elaine happened to be free after eating on the first floor, so she went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a rather charming and delicate face was revealed.
"Claire? Why are you here?"
Elaine was a little surprised. She knew Claire. In other words, she knew Claire's grandmother. In terms of seniority, Claire wanted to call her aunt.
"Auntie? Why are you here too?"
There was a surprised expression on Claire's face. She had met Elaine many times when she was a child, and she still remembers calling her: "I came here to find Bai Kui. Why did he leave the nursing home? I heard that Bai Kui went to Grandpa Heb
This is coming, so I came to see him today. My uncle told me that I must protect Bai Kui and prevent a second accident..." Lan
Hearing this, Elaine opened her mouth, but the words could not come out. Protect Bai Kui? Does that kid really need someone to protect him?
