Start a Core Pod

  Chapter 499 Follow the clues

  In fact, when Anthony left, Duanmu Huai had been following him. Relying on the skills of the Raven Guard, it was of course impossible for Anthony to find Duanmu Huai.

   To put it bluntly, Duanmuhuai is using Anthony to fish for law enforcement.

   Duanmu Huai didn't care about this, after all the players have said that one of the three artifacts in this world is a friend.

   Friends are not for cheating, why keep them?

   But now that this guy has come out, Duanmu Huai is naturally not welcome!

   "—————!!"

   The monster attacked by Duanmu Huai suddenly let out a scream, then stood up from the ground, twitching its nose and facing Duanmu Huai. However, it didn't take a SAN hit because of it... for the simple reason that this thing has no eyes at all! Naturally, it was impossible to see Duanmu Huaihuai!

   "This, what the **** is this?"

  At this moment, with the help of the flashlight, Anthony also saw the monster's appearance clearly, and immediately screamed. Under the brilliance of the flashlight, they could clearly see in front of them a humanoid monster about the height of a person. Its body and limbs were similar to those of a human being, except for its weird head—— There is only one mouth, and the part above the nose is bare, which looks very strange. Especially when it opens its mouth to reveal the tongue and teeth inside, it is even more weird.

  The fingers of this monster are very slender, like dry branches, which look disgusting.

   Not only that, I saw the monster's body swaying, and then turned into a transparent form again like this, and disappeared into the darkness. Only the sound of hurried footsteps wandered back and forth beside them.

"What should we do now?"

  If Anthony is the only one, perhaps he is on the verge of collapse at this moment. But fortunately, Duanmuhuai was still by his side, so Anthony hurriedly leaned against Duanmuhuai, looking around vigilantly, and asked.

   "Don't worry, a bunch of beasts, just kill them."

Facing Anthony's question, Duanmuhuai seemed quite calm. If other people said this, Anthony might not be relieved, but thinking about the scene where Duanmuhuai threw the other party directly... Well, Anthony thinks this The big man is still very reliable in speaking.

   "Slap! Slap! Slap!"

At the same time, the monster hidden in the darkness sped up its pace and rushed towards the two of them again. Then it roared and suddenly appeared from the side of Duanmuhuai, screamed and stretched out its sharp claws, stabbing Duanmu Huai's chest!

   "Die!!"

  However, Duanmu Huai let out an angry roar in the face of the monster's blow, then suddenly raised his right hand, punched out, and hit the monster's head directly. Then he smashed it to the ground heavily. There was only a popping sound, and then Anthony saw that monster's head was directly scattered on the ground like an apple under Duanmuhuai's fist, turning into several pieces.

  The monster let out a howl, then jerked its body and became silent.

  “………”

  Seeing this, Anthony was stunned. Although he had expected it before, with Duanmuhuai's physical strength, it would definitely not take too much time to deal with such a monster. But what Anthony didn't expect was that this man was so ruthless that he smashed the monster's head completely with one punch!

  However, before Anthony could breathe a sigh of relief, suddenly, from all directions, there were low-pitched roars again!

   "This, what's going on here?"

  Hearing the roars one after another, Anthony became nervous again.

   "Obviously, there are more than one of them. Maybe it's because I killed one of them, so these guys started to get angry..."

   "Then what to do?"

  At this moment, Anthony also understood. Obviously, this group of monsters is like a pack of wolves. If one wolf dies, the remaining wolves will certainly not let it go!

   "It's easy."

  While speaking, Duanmu Huai clenched the cane in his hand, and swung it suddenly!

   "Just kill them all!!"

"Roar---!"

At the same time Duanmu Huai said this, as if the other party understood what he meant, the low roar suddenly turned into a sharp cry, and the next moment, dense footsteps sounded from all directions, towards Duanmu Huai He jumped in the direction where Anthony was!

  What happened next, Anthony didn't know how to explain it at all. He could feel those terrible monsters surrounding him, and he could even feel the fishy, ​​disgusting horror exhaled by the other party. But he couldn't see what those monsters looked like at all, he could only see Duanmuhuai clenched his fist in one hand and holding the stick in the other, waving it around angrily.

  However, he didn't look like he was waving his cane at all. In fact, every time Duanmuhuai waved his cane, Anthony could hear a "bang", like the sound of some animal being hit hard. Immediately afterwards, the harsh scream turned into a miserable wail. Duanmuhuai's whole body seemed to have turned into a crazy storm that could not stop spinning, and he seemed to be in the eye of the storm. Looking around, except for the torn pieces and the howling wind rolled up by the storm, See nothing, hear nothing.

"boom!"

The cane in Duanmuhuai's hand swung down vigorously again, and it hit the monster's head. The thick, sturdy cane smashed the monster's head open like a walnut from the middle like a hammer, and then it wailed. , fell to the ground without moving.

   "Humph! Trash!"

   Duanmuhuai stepped on the monster's corpse, and then looked around. As the last monster was killed, the entire exhibition hall became silent again. Perhaps because the monsters were all dead, the space that seemed to be closed had returned to its original state, and the lights that had been extinguished had also been turned on again.

   "Woo...knot, is it over?"

  Feeling the lights suddenly turned on, Anthony also opened his eyes and looked around. After seeing the surrounding scenes, he couldn't help but gasped.

I saw that on the ground not far from the two of them, there were corpses of such terrifying monsters everywhere. Some of them had their heads smashed, and some were directly torn into pieces. As many as ten...

   Can this be done by one person? ?

  Anthony looked at the corpses of those monsters on the ground in surprise, and then at Duanmuhuai beside him. Although Anthony also wanted to help when he was attacked. However, due to the darkness around and the translucent shape of these monsters, Anthony couldn't find a chance to shoot, and Duanmu Huai basically killed them all by himself.

   Unexpectedly, he was actually so good at fighting.

  Although he had expected it, Anthony still couldn't believe it when he saw the corpses in front of him. You know, even if it was a crowd of dozens of people fighting, it might not be so easy to kill them, let alone those translucent monsters.

   "Aren't you hurt?"

"fine."

   Duanmu Huai waved his hand.

   "How to deal with these corpses."

   "I'll take care of it."

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Anthony also hastily took out his mobile phone to make a contact. Generally speaking, the corpses left in such incidents will be completely destroyed. These monsters are no exception, but... it's probably the first time they have encountered so many at one time.

   No, it should be the second time. After all, in the previous report of the Innsmouth dossier, there were reports that hundreds of corpses of half-human, half-fish monsters were found.

Um………

  Thinking of this, Anthony looked at Duanmu Huai with a strange expression.

   Could it be that he killed those people?

If it were other investigators, Anthony would probably not have such an idea. However, now that Anthony witnessed how Duanmuhuai chopped melons and vegetables and killed these transparent monsters hidden in the space, his Thoughts suddenly changed.

   No matter how powerful those half-man, half-fish monsters are, they can't be more powerful than this, right?

"What's wrong?"

   "Oh, nothing."

  Seeing Duanmuhuai looking at him, Anthony also coughed in embarrassment, and changed the topic.

   "I have already contacted the logistics personnel, and they will arrive in a while... So, is this matter resolved?"

"of course not."

"No???"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Anthony was dumbfounded. He looked around in surprise, not knowing what to say for a while.

   This has killed dozens of them, and they haven’t been killed yet? How much do you want to kill?

  But soon, Duanmuhuai's words answered Anthony's doubts.

   "It's impossible for this museum to hide dozens of monsters, so obviously, they should have been teleported here through a certain door, and we have to find that door."

"makes sense."

  At this moment, Anthony also came to his senses. Indeed, as Duanmuhuai said, this museum cannot hide dozens of monsters. They must come from somewhere. It's useless to kill more here if you can't figure out where they come from.

   Soon, the two started looking again.

Fortunately, perhaps because these monsters were completely wiped out, this time, the two of them found a destroyed oil painting on a corner of the wall of the exhibition hall without spending much time——on it was a painting of a monster without eyes. , a monster with its **** mouth wide open.

   Obviously, this is the monster.

   And under the painting, its origin is written.

   "Empty Ghost" - donated by Christine Sellers, Department of Art, Miskatonic University.

   "Obviously, we've found a clue."

  Looking at the title under the painting in front of him, Duanmu Huai said lightly.
