I can go back to the mysterious age.

Chapter 398 Answer me, reptile! (4000)

"A dark-gold-level hunter was seriously injured, and three white-level hunters died. Tsk, the difficulty of the first round of the shadow hunter qualification competition this time is not low. It is much more difficult than mine..." Jem clicked his tongue .

"Of course, your time was 20 years ago. In the past ten years, the activity of dark creatures in the entire empire has increased significantly, and the emergence of dangerous individuals is almost [-] times to twice that of before. .As the head of the branch, you should be very clear about it. You won’t really retire after you arrive at the branch, and become the shopkeeper.”

Cames, who is quite familiar with Jem, joked.

"Hey, can't I enjoy my retirement? Besides, the Ford County branch I'm in charge of is really quite peaceful. In recent years, the activity and danger of dark creatures are at most one or two layers higher than before..."

Jem defended himself.

Seeing that the topic was going off track, Kroger pointed to the mission file and said.

"The last operation of the Hunter Association failed. The strength of this ghoul-like dark creature should not be underestimated, and it is quite dangerous even for dark gold-level hunters. Of course, Bai Kui, you don't need to think about this issue. The difficulty of the mission is only It's about how to find the dark creature hidden in Fei Leng Cui, if it doesn't show up for ten days, it will be troublesome..."

Ka Xiu nodded slightly, this is indeed worth noting.

However, he actually had a solution.In the past half a month, Kaxiu and the ghost iron knight have been in frequent contact in the calamity world.I have learned more about the Black Rain Villa at its peak. For example, there is a black bait wood that emits a strange fragrance inside the Black Rain Villa.

Passing through the corridor, Kaxiu felt the smell of blood getting stronger and stronger in the air.

"So, are you that ghoul that wandered around the fourth district of Fei Leng Cui for half a month?" Ka Xiu looked at the lizard man, his breath remained unchanged.

For the next few hours, until twelve noon.

Stop at an open door.

"Giggle...why aren't you afraid? Little snack..." The lizardman's eyes were bloodshot, with a sense of madness.He said to himself as if he had a nervous problem: "You hunters are the most delicious food! Far more delicious than ordinary humans! Let me do the math..."

There were signs of gnawing on the body of the deceased, quite like the work of a ghoul.

"I ate two Baiyao-level hunters and more than a dozen black-copper-level hunters. Unfortunately, I haven't eaten dark gold-level hunters. I think they will be more delicious! Heck, heck, heck, heck..." The lizardman laughed.

With a bang, it hit the ground.

Kashu narrowed his eyes, walked to the window, and slowly closed the curtains.

He checked the wounds, and they were all killed with a single blow.

On the second floor, there was a faint smell of blood in the air.At the corner of the stairs, several guards stood upright and stood guard.They glanced at Kashu's hunter logo, then looked away, without any movement.

Simpney Street, No. 114, this is a meat processing plant.

Kaxiu nodded, and walked towards the hotel without hesitation.

Its overall shape is like an elongated version of a human being, with a height of two meters.

The corpse in the Lizardman's hand was torn into two by brute force, and the blood mist and internal organs exploded.The whole room was shocked, and a figure ran wildly.

Apparently something horrific had happened inside.

He walked around the footprints and looked up.A half-abandoned wooden workbench, as if it had been knocked over by something huge.There is also a bent iron frame next to the workbench with scratches on it.It seems to be caused by some kind of metal utensil, or sharp scales.Kaxiu looked at all the traces, and finally shifted his gaze to the wall.

He slowly stretched out his arm and pressed it against the wall.

"Ghoul?" The lizard man was taken aback for a moment.Today is the second time it committed a crime in the past two weeks, the previous time was in a residential area.But if it could scare the hunter in front of him, the Lizardman wouldn't mind admitting it.

The lizard man suddenly turned his head and looked to another corner of the room.

Buzz...

"you!!!"

According to the movement track of the dark creature codenamed Ghoul, Kaxiu circled several ranges on the map of the fourth district of Fei Leng Cui.This is where he thinks the dark creatures are most likely to appear again, there are three in total.

"I'm leaving." Kaxiu put on a hunter costume and left Heb's house.After the Hunter Association asked about the details, he got detailed information about the entire process of the mission.There were seven homicides in total, all in the fourth district of Fei Leng Cui, where all the Happy Streets were located.So two of the victims were prostitutes from Pleasure Street.

"It's a pity that it was discovered. Why did you get a black copper-level snack? It's far from enough to get stuffed between your teeth!"

After the investigation in the morning was over, Kaxiu stood at the end of a happy street and decided to go to the nursing home to ask the seriously injured dark-gold hunter.

The light in the room was much dim, and the door was closed.This room was already a confined space, filled with a strong smell of blood.

Kashuu's eyes became serious.The spiral pattern in front of me is almost the same as that on the old tree next to the knight's castle.

Perhaps some information about the ghoul can be obtained from the other party's mouth.

The lizardman looked at Kaxiu who didn't move a step in doubt, with a disappointed expression on his face: "Why aren't you scared at all? Quickly show a desperate expression! A black copper-level hunter is no different from ordinary people in front of me. It's food. My favorite is the smell of despair before dying, this kind of food is the best, the tastiest, the sweetest..."

Perhaps, it was a one-way disaster tunnel.A dark creature ran out of the calamity world, and then carried out a hunting and massacre.

The lizard man showed his figure in the mist, but there was no sign of Kaxiu in front of him.It lowered its head in astonishment, looking over its left shoulder.The whole arm and part of the body were torn off by a huge brute force.

Kaxiu saw that there was a fenced area at the darkest end of the warehouse.Apparently, all traces are there.He strode over, and gradually smelled a disgusting strong stench.It's like the smell of crushed bugs mixed with the smell of rotting meat.

Kashu walked over without changing his face.He stopped suddenly and looked down.It was a footprint, a footprint sunk deep into the ground.It is twice the size of a normal human foot, and there are four claw-like toes in the front that are dug into the concrete floor, and the depression is very obvious.

Kaxiu traveled to seven places and observed all the crime scenes.

"Disaster tunnel?"

"Which room on the second floor, I'll go and see."

He went straight into the warehouse.

The whole pattern is about the size of a wheel and is deeply baked into the wall.

There was a big pool of blood, spattered around the edges.The color had turned dark brown and looked like a large blotch on the surface of the wall.

Then, step by step, he walked towards Kaxiu heavily.It didn't make a move, but picked up the corpse next to it, and gnawed slowly.

It persisted in asking this question, extremely persistent and crazy.

This is a middle-aged man with a beard and a slightly fat body.

A large pool of green blood piled up on the ground into puddles.

It's almost nine o'clock in the morning and the sun is shining brightly.But the interior of the warehouse was extremely dark and gloomy, with black spots on the white walls, and there seemed to be solid dirt and green moss in the corners.Rows of shelves are covered with a layer of greasy grease, showing a dark yellow color.Next to the shelves are metal hooks hanging from the railing above, which are used to hang the meat.

The snow-white bones covered with tooth marks and a pile of viscera inside are quite shocking, and ordinary people may vomit on the spot.Kashuu remained expressionless.

Display the hunter badge and the investigation document issued by the Hunter Association.

He looked at the pool of blood accumulated on the ground in the corner, slowly raised his head, and looked at the ceiling.It was no different there than usual, except that following the gaze, a drop of blood fell out of thin air.

"Giggle..."

The lizard man made a strange cry, with a human expression on his face.

This dark creature was exceptionally proficient at deliberately creating murders and then sneaking up on the staff of the dark hunting organization at the scene of the crime.

He had a faint feeling that he might be lucky today, maybe the mission target hit the door by himself.Coincidentally, the location of this hotel is one of the three areas that Kaxiu circled before.The place where the ghoul is most likely to hide and commit crimes again.Plus the description of the guard just now.

Kashu stepped over, showed the hunter's sign to the guards, and asked what happened.The young guard brought his officer.

He planned to first understand the specific circumstances and location of the serial murder case, and roughly infer which area the ghoul was in.

With a loud bang, the entire wall on the second floor of the hotel vibrated.

Now that his strength has recovered, he doesn't worry about how dangerous the mission target is.Let alone an A-level task, Kaxiu is not afraid even if it is an S-level task.The only trouble is how to find the other party.

The gravel powder exploded, and sunlight leaked in through a hole the size of a person.

Only a piece the size of a thumb is needed to attract dark creatures.Of course, the spread of aroma is not very wide and has limitations.

Then fish with black bait wood.

A passenger had a frightened expression on his face, and his complexion was white.

The two arms are not thick, but slender.But the palm at the end is three inwardly curved claws, the sharp tips are hooked on the fleshy membrane.

I am afraid that there is more than half of the probability that it is the target that Kaxiu is looking for.

Although the sound is very soft, it can still be heard.

Blood overflowed from the big mouth, as if swallowing a whole orange.

With a crash, something invisible seemed to move on the ceiling.Finally, it fell down, revealing its full body shape.

With three or four quick strokes, the force was continuous and swift, and a large piece of wall dust peeled off, with dark brown blood.The thing under the filth was exposed, and it was a spiral pattern, like the shell of a conch.

It was a dark creature that looked half-human, half-lizard. Its skin was dark green like moss, and its joints had a circle of horny protrusions.

This is the first serial murder case, which happened fifteen days ago.

Walking all the way in, the miserable scene came into view.

There were two corpses in total, one was lying on the bed, and the other was sitting upright on a chair.The lower half of the body lying on the bed was gone, and the cross-section had rough traces of brute force tearing, and the bed sheet was stained red with blood.The head sitting on the chair was cut off by the claws, and half of the upper body was gnawed clean.

This time, the speed was extremely fast, and he suddenly rushed to Kaxiu's position.

Six ferocious and deformed hooked claws cut through the air suddenly!

"Of course it's me, giggling... so are you scared?"

The head of the dark creature is an enlarged version of the lizard's head, the distance between the eyes is quite wide, and the eyes are huge.There is an unspeakable sense of horror.

"Dear Mr. Hunter, a murder occurred on the second floor. A total of two adult males died. They looked miserable, with half of their bodies eaten away. We have reported it to the Hunter Association for processing..."

Kashi said with a blank face.

The only difference is that the pattern is too small and rough.

10 minutes later, the fourth district of Fei Leng Cui.

He saw a pool of thick blood slowly flowing outward on the ground.

"I decided to taste your brain!"

"Did dark creatures enter the surface world from the deep calamity world, hunting and eating?" He frowned slightly and left from the warehouse.

After leaving the Hunter's Association, he got into a black carriage.

Kashu stepped forward, narrowing his eyes slightly.

Ka Xiu looked at the other party quietly, from what he said just now.

"Cackling! Interesting hunter..."

Both found something, but the spiral pattern was gone.

Its lizard-like mouth was split open to reveal jagged teeth with bits of meat between them.The scarlet tongue sticks out in the air, and its surface is full of bumps like tumors.Ugly and stinky.

The footsteps moved away, and they had just walked about a street away.Kaxiu suddenly saw a building in front of him was blocked, and guards in blue and black uniforms stood around.Evacuate all guests from the building.

"The last one in the corridor on the second floor." The captain of the guard answered truthfully.

In front of the light blue rectangular warehouse, four guards in alternating blue and black costumes guarded the door.Seeing Kaxiu approaching, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Since you are that ghoul, now tell me what is the swirl pattern on the wall of Vic's meat slaughterhouse. If you answer to my satisfaction, you may be able to live for a while longer. "Kaxiu pulled gently with his right hand, and the curtains were completely closed.

Due to the mission rating is dangerous "A" level.So the place where the crime happened is still preserved, guarded by soldiers from the security department.Kaxiu decided to take a look first, and contact the ghost man through a special channel by the way.

Walk forward, through the hotel lobby, and up the stairs.

Hiss.

There was a tall figure standing on the edge of the sun, holding bloody limbs in his hands.The whole person is as expressionless as a statue.

He slowly stretched out his right hand forward, and the limbs of the lizard man he was holding upside down began to disintegrate.Small pieces of scarlet flesh fell like snowflakes.

"Answer my question, I don't want to say it a third time, crawler..."
