It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

The falling dog-man suddenly looked up, with a hint of confusion in his turbid blood-red eyes.

It was clearly the one that jumped down from the roof, but this human landed on its own head.

However, its wild instinct drove it to respond.

The slender waist twisted vigorously in the air, and the dog-man's body turned over in an incredible way.

The deformed head successfully avoided the butcher's knife, but the equally deformed hind legs brought itself to the door.

The serrated blade sliced ​​through the dog-man's hind legs effortlessly, the thick hair and hard bone covering it offering no resistance.

This is the real damage, the most real damage.

"Ow!"

Amid the dog-man's painful howls, two beast-like residents armed with machetes rushed forward.

They were very fast and rushed in front of Liu Zheng before he landed.

The slender and twisted arms due to the mutation were extremely powerful, and the machete made a whistling sound in the night wind.

At this moment, Liu Zheng's two tentacles were worn out from using the Serrated Butcher Knife technique.

Faced with attacks from both sides, it seemed that all he could do was close his eyes and wait for death.

"Mr. Liu Zheng!"

Anko screamed when he saw this.

He didn't expect that after forty years, during the second Pale Night, these beasts not only did not become weaker, but became much stronger.

If they had had such strength during the first Pale Night, there would be no way I would have survived.

If this stranger died, they would undoubtedly lose a great helper.

Moreover, if Liu Zheng gave the order, the powerful cat would probably not help them anymore.

There are only two outcomes for the Anko family: become food for wild beasts or...

Become a beast.

"No!"

Anko did not accept this result.

He swung his arms vigorously and threw the boning knife in his hand away.

Over the past forty years, he has often been immersed in the shadow of that night.

Although for some reason Anko did not participate in those hunting skills training, he also had his own way of practicing in private.

That's the flying axe.

Although he is now using a boning knife, decades of practice and the boiling blood in his body still allow him to perform beyond his normal level.

The boning knife spun in the air for a few weeks before hitting one of the beastmen squarely on the back of the head.

The sharp tip of the knife instantly penetrated his skull and grew out of his mouth.

The sticky black brain tissue dripped drop by drop along the tip of the knife onto the blue slate.

"Well done."

Liu Zheng waved the third tentacle, whipped another beast-like resident away, and then praised.

He didn't expect that this pot-bellied tavern owner could do this. It made him look at him with new eyes.

"careful!"

Along with Anke's warning, there was a slight sound of wind behind him.

Liu Zheng didn't even turn his head and just bent his legs and raised them.

The scorpion swung its tail and its right hoof hit the dog-man in the face.

The protruding face was kicked directly into a dent. The super high strength and true damage added by the legendary vest made his kick as powerful as a kick from a warhorse.

The dog-man struggled to jump up using the strength of his front limbs. Under the attack from below, he flew high into the air and then fell heavily to the ground.

"Oh!"

After a dull thud, dark crimson blood spread out under the dog-man's body like paint spread on a canvas.

However, the terrible beast still did not die.

Its muscles were trembling, its wounds were sealing, and its blood was coagulating at an alarming rate.

The hair near the wound grew wildly, like sutures in surgery, wrapping and stitching the wound together.

At this rate, the dog-man can recover his combat effectiveness in less than five minutes.

“How can you survive so well?”

Liu Zheng exclaimed in admiration.

If its hind legs had not grown out, and what grew on its body were not tentacles but hair, he would have suspected that At's transformation into a beast was the work of his nominal mother goddess.

But no matter whether this beast disease was caused by an evil god or an experiment by some crazy scientist, it was just a dish once it entered the kitchen of the bloody restaurant.

Liu Zheng walked up to the dog-man, then swung the butcher knife and cut off its head.

The dog-man's deformed body twitched a few times, then stopped moving.

However, the hair is still growing, as if the body is still alive.

"By the way, are these hairs on the purchase catalog?"

He took out the list that White Feather Chicken had given him and checked it carefully.

"Holy crap, it really exists. Who on earth is eating this kind of thing?"

Liu Zheng was speechless.

If people eat this, then can't the seaweed on his head also be made into a dish?

Hiss, no wonder he always felt that the white-feathered chicken was looking at his head.

Despite all the complaints, Liu Zheng still obediently took the butcher knife and started cutting the hair.

These hairs are tougher than they look, and because they are soft, they are harder to cut than bones.

However, in the face of real damage, even the toughest hair can be easily harvested like leeks.

He rolled up a tuft of hair and rubbed it in the tentacles, feeling a slight tingling sensation.

The hairs were actually piercing into his flesh.

But that's all. With its extremely strong physique and the carapace of the black goat kid, even a needle would have a hard time piercing it.

Liu Zheng took out a portable cold storage, put the dog-man's head, legs and hair into it, and then put the chef's hat directly on his head.

Anyway, it was clear that there were extraordinary powers in this city, and Anko should have understood the current situation and would turn a blind eye to some less important things.

Sure enough, when the tavern owner saw the chef's hat that suddenly appeared on his head, his eyes twitched and he chose to ignore it.

Liu Zheng shook off the blood on the butcher knife and looked at the remaining beast-like resident.

His physique was much weaker than the dog man. After being blown away by Liu Zheng, he struggled for a long time before getting up.

Looking at the headless corpse on the ground and then at the terrifying serrated butcher knife in his hand, the beastman screamed and fled to the end of the street, running even faster than when they attacked Liu Zheng.

"interesting."

Liu Zheng said with interest.

It can talk, has tactics, is afraid and can run away. Apart from the mutation of its body, it seems to be no different from humans.

Or rather, a beast that is too smart.

However, after seeing so many strange species in the metropolis that are smarter than humans, these beasts are just a little interesting.

"What are we going to do with these bodies, Boss?"

He pointed at the corpse of the dog-man and the beast-like resident.

"Hunters of the church usually choose to burn them."

Anko said somewhat unnaturally.

"Then burn it."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Since he has obtained the ingredients, he is still responsible for cleaning up the mess.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't bring any fuel when I went out."

Anko said awkwardly.

On the one hand, it was because I was in a hurry to go out, and on the other hand, I was rejecting it deep down in my heart.

"The residents here should always have fuel at home."

Liu Zheng asked.

"Yes, there is usually fuel available."

Anko nodded.

On the one hand, it is used for daily life, and on the other hand, the residents of At are prepared for the Pale Night.

"That's fine."

He randomly picked a room with a red light on and knocked hard on the door.

"Open the door, fellow."

He shouted loudly, knocking on the door so hard that it shook.

"Who are you? And why are you knocking on my door?"

A man dragged his heavy feet to the door and asked.

The voice was old and hoarse, sounding like an old woman.

"I am a stranger sent here to do some shopping. I have just killed two wild beasts and would like to borrow some fuel and fire from you to deal with their carcasses."

Liu Zheng said truthfully.

"Strangers! Go away, leave here, you are not welcome in my home. You strangers will only bring disaster!"

The old woman shouted.

"Why does she hate outsiders so much?"

he asked over his shoulder.

"Because the church's hunters are usually recruited from outsiders, and the church's hunters' duty is to kill wild beasts."

Anko replied somewhat awkwardly.

"Shouldn't they thank the Church Hunters then?"

Liu Zheng was puzzled.

Without teaching hunters how to kill wild beasts, it would be difficult for the residents to do so on their own.

"After all, those beasts were once their relatives or friends. To them, the church hunters are also their enemies."

"Besides, the church hunters' style of action is sometimes quite rough."

Anko sighed and began to explain things to him.

Days like this when large numbers of beastmen appear actually happen every once in a while in At City, and are called the Night of the Wild.

The Blood Healing Church will find out the arrival of the Wild Night in advance through some method, and then inform the residents of At City to prepare in advance.

The residents would prepare weapons, food and fuel, close the gates, seal the entrances and stay indoors when the wild night comes.

The church would send out hunters to patrol the area and knock on residents' doors to inquire about their situation.

Once the residents do not respond or make abnormal noises, the hunters will break into the house and hunt the beast-like residents directly after discovering them.

Those who are sent to do this kind of hard work are usually novice hunters.

Due to their lack of strength and experience, they are often very nervous and unable to control their hunting desires. They are prone to extreme behavior when dealing with beast-like residents or ordinary residents.

This also objectively aggravated the resentment of the residents of At towards the church hunters.
