753. Chapter 752 The Witch Hunt Begins


"It's quite well-equipped." Lin Yi picked up the shotgun from his seat and played with it casually in his hand.

After playing around with it, I discovered that according to the judgment of Samsara Paradise, this thing can actually be regarded as a blue-quality weapon.

Although the structure of the firearm is very rough, its lethality is almost the same as that of purple-quality weapons.

Su Xiao reached out and grabbed a diamond. After looking at it for a while, she stuffed it into Melody's mouth.

"It's useless. It's not like I've never eaten this stuff before. It's really not very useful." Melody muttered dissatisfiedly. She only held the diamond in her mouth for a short while and then gave it to her with a pop. Spit it out.

The space inside the carriage is quite spacious, with a width of about two meters and a length of three meters.

After folding the seat flat, it is no problem for people to lie down and rest inside.

Eminem sat at the front of the carriage as the driver, and actually didn't use it to drive the Dockens away. With the witch Melody around, just giving an order would make the three docile Dockens move in a fixed direction.

Lin Yi took out a very simple map. This was the first time Lin Yi saw a map after arriving in this world.

This thing is definitely a strategic material. The Holy Healing Church has a clear rule that even if a witch hunter is defeated in the battle, he must try his best to destroy this map before dying.

60% of the Dark Crow Continent is recorded on this map. What’s even more valuable is that this is a map from 6 years ago. Don’t think that it’s that long ago. Considering the current level of technological development in this world, the frequency of map replacement is so high. It's already quite remarkable.

The carriage moved forward steadily and soon arrived at the city gate quickly.

As soon as the city guards saw the seal printed on the carriage, they let it pass without saying a word. Even if the sensor crystals they held in their hands were giving an early warning that there was a witch in the carriage, they did not stop them at all. mean.

Melody stuck her head out of the car window, winked at the squad leader who had captured her when she first entered the city, and made a face.

The next moment, a hand gave her a loud bang.

Then, this hand grabbed Melody's back collar and pulled her hard back into the car.

Seeing this scene, the corner of the squad leader's mouth curled up.

"Before going to the west, try killing two witches first?"

Su Xiao felt confident, so the two began to screen the batch of reward orders closest to the Holy Healing Church.

After screening, the Incinerator human gathering place located thirty kilometers away came into their sight, and was finally selected by the two.

This is the territory governed by the famous white witch, who pays a large amount of tax to the Holy Healing Church every year.

According to the information provided by the local intelligence organization, there is a black witch hiding in the incinerator gathering place.

There is a reason why we chose such a far away place.

If it were any closer, the residents there would all be under the direct management of the Holy Healing Church.

Any dangerous witches would have been dealt with by the witch hunters long ago, so the two of them chose a place so far away.

Su Xiao reached out and handed a reward order to Melody.

"Do you recognize this witch?"

"Of course, Feast Witch Keith, no witch knows her bad reputation. This old monster has the habit of cannibalism. It is said that her favorite thing to eat is the flesh and blood of the White Witch." Melody said, unable to bear it. I shivered.

"It just so happens that the target we have to deal with this time is her." Su Xiao said calmly.

"You don't mean to..." Melody's eyes widened and she swallowed mid-sentence. She had already vaguely guessed Su Xiao's plan.

"No, can we start with something simpler, like me? It's not good to come up to do a witch of the level of Feast." Melody tried to look at Lin Yi, hoping that Lin Yi could persuade her. I advise Lidya Su not to make such a big deal when you come up.

Lin Yi seemed to have not heard Melody's words and ignored her at all.

He took a look at the reward order for Feast Witch Keith, and, well, it was indeed quite strong.

According to the information from the Holy Healing Church, Keith is a third-stage witch with a bounty of 128 gold coins and a magician.

The enemies Lin Yi and Su Xiao had encountered before were all from the elemental system, but the two of them had already experienced the spell-based attacks at the Holy Healing Church. They were indeed very strange, but there were ways to deal with them.

The feeling of riding in a carriage on the road was not pleasant. The road was bumpy and the speed was not too fast.

The road conditions in the Dark Crow Continent are really bad. Not only are they poorly built, but few people maintain and repair them on weekdays. As a result, the carriage they are riding in cannot move fast at all. stand up.

Just like this, they wandered all the way until the morning of the next day, when Lin Yi and Su Xiao finally successfully arrived at the Burner Human Gathering Area.

Melody opened the car door and saw that she had put on a rather cool backless dress. Her figure was curvy and eye-catching.

"The Incinerator Human Gathering Place is right in front, do you need to inform the White Witch Lord?"

With the temptation of gold coins, Melody has already devoted herself to the work of the witch hunter's assistant.

"No need." Su Xiao responded briefly, and then asked, "How much do you know about Feast Witch Keith?"

"Not much. She is an old woman. Of course, in the eyes of most people, her appearance is extremely beautiful. This is the natural advantage of a conjuration witch."

Melody's tone was a bit envious. The life span of a witch is two to three times that of ordinary people.

Most witches can maintain their youthful appearance well in the first half of their lives, but once they reach a certain age, they will begin to age rapidly.

If the difficulty of hunting witches is 10, then 60% of the difficulty lies in finding witches.

There is basically no difference between witches and ordinary women in appearance. Unless you have close contact with them, it is really difficult to identify them.

Su Xiao jumped off the carriage, while Lin Yi took out two shotguns from the mezzanine behind the carriage, and carried several potions of different colors.

The two of them were going to try the effectiveness of the weapons here on the witch first. If it didn't work, they would have no choice but to rush up and cut the witch into pieces.

The White Witch Lord who governs the Incinerator Gathering Area has made great contributions to the Holy Healing Church, so he has legal territory in the Central Plains.

The scale armor worn by the soldiers of the Holy Healing Church and the weapons they used were all developed by this white witch.

It didn't take long for several people to arrive near the incinerator gathering place.

What is surprising is that the city wall here is not very tall, only a few meters high at best, but the equipment equipped on the city wall is extremely advanced.

After seeing the three people, several soldiers guarding the city wanted to approach and ask, but they were stopped by their captain, who immediately expressed their relief.

The captain noticed the witch hunter marks on the hands of Lin Yi and Su Xiao.

When it comes to dealing with witch hunters, all gathering places and kingdoms are given unconditional permission.

If anyone dares to reveal the news that the witch hunter has entered the city, it is a serious crime.

As soon as they entered the city, a few people smelled a strange smell, as if something had been baked for a long time and was burnt.

Su Xiao released the detection props, and a tablet appeared in her hand.

Lin Yi also put on his monocle and began to observe the surrounding environment.

After a while, Su Xiao and Lin Yi looked to the right at the same time, as if some kind of invisible eyes had just appeared, but this feeling only lasted for two or three seconds.

"Illusion?"

"No, it should be the ability of the witch."

In the laboratory, a witch wearing pajamas and a lazy expression was breathing heavily. The moment she looked at Su Xiao and Lin Yi, she felt as if she was being targeted by some kind of beast.

"Is this a white-level witch hunter? Have today's witch hunters become so terrifying?"

This witch was the white witch from the gathering place. After she noticed that a witch hunter had entered the gathering place, she wanted to investigate, but she was discovered by Lin Yi and Su Xiao.

"Woof."

"Found it?"

"Woof."

BuBoWang said to follow him, and Lin Yi and Su Xiao walked toward the inside of the gathering place with a confused Melody.

It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive near the abandoned warehouse.

Lin Yi pulled out a shotgun and then threw it to Su Xiao. Su Xiao held the loading part of the shotgun with one hand and gently shook it up and down to complete the loading operation.

"Wait here."

Su Xiao glanced at Melody. He was not afraid of Melody running away. He put an alchemy bomb in Melody's stomach. As long as she dared to run away, Melody would explode from her abdomen like a firework. .

Almost five minutes later, several sword energy pierced the ceiling of the warehouse.

Then, an extremely huge sword flashed through, neatly splitting the entire warehouse into two.

With a loud "Bang!", the wooden door of the warehouse was slammed open, and Melody outside the door was so frightened that she took several steps back.

I saw a woman in ragged clothes, her arms cut off at the roots, rushing out of the warehouse.

Several holes appeared on her body, and black blood was continuously flowing out of the holes.

There is only one emotion in the other person's eyes, and that is fear.

Dark soul threads suddenly appeared on this woman's ankles. As the dark soul thread continued to shorten, the ragged woman fell to the ground, holding the ground tightly with both hands, as if making a final struggle.

"Help me! Help me!" The woman scratched the ground too hard, and her fingernails drew several bloody traces on the ground.

Melody has also recognized the identity of this woman. She is the target of this operation - the feast witch Keith.

"Pfft!"

After the sound of blood splattering, the warehouse instantly became silent.

The woman's arms exposed outside the warehouse door quickly withered, and the skin lost its original luster, and finally turned into a skinny and bone-like appearance. This was the true face of the feast witch Keith.

After killing the Feast Witch Keith, the two walked out of the warehouse. There was a large space underground in this warehouse. For ordinary people, it was Hell's Kitchen. Even adults with mature minds would be frightened and paralyzed to the ground if they entered there. .

If it were a soup cook, this scene would feel very familiar.

[You have assisted in killing Feast Witch Keith. 】

[You get 0.2% of the source of development, and now you get 2.0% of the source of development in total. 】

[You gain 160 points of Holy Healing Church reputation, current reputation: 330/100 (white level). 】

[Special reputation mission: Witch Hunter (2/10). 】

……

[Tip: Hunters can choose one of the following rewards. 】

A. Treasure Chest·Gold (This treasure chest has received an additional bonus, and the treasure chest reward has been increased by 50%)

B. Spell resistance (unique to this world): Resistance to curses, corrosive abilities, etc. of spell witches is increased by 10%, and there is a lower chance of saving.

Tip: This ability is only valid in the Crow World. After leaving the Crow World, it will be converted into abnormal attribute resistance at a certain rate.

……

Lin Yi chose spell resistance, and Su Xiao also chose the same choice.

Although spell resistance is only useful in this world, Samsara Paradise also said that this thing can be upgraded to other abnormal attribute resistance in equal proportions after leaving this world. It is very troublesome to improve this thing.

"Is this... over?"

Melody stepped forward to check on Feast's body. The notorious ogre witch was found dead like this. She even sent out a cry for help before she died, as if she had seen something terrifying.

Due to the loud noises that were heard before, the surrounding civilians had already dispersed.

At this moment, a soldier in scale armor hurried over. After making an initial assessment of the situation on the scene, they quickly retreated, then began to block off the surrounding area and dispersed all civilians within a few hundred meters, thus forming a A line of defense.

This is not to prevent Su Xiao from escaping, but to help Su Xiao block it. Witch hunters have a high reputation among the people.

Lin Yi came to the corpse of the Feast Witch, extracted blood, palm prints, and picked up a few black crystals from the corpse. With these three items, he could prove that he had killed the Feast Witch Keith.

"Your reward."

Su Xiao tossed Melody a small bag of gold coins. Compared to verbal promises, heavy gold coins are often more motivating.

This was indeed the case. Melody smiled like a flower and stuffed the bag of gold coins into her arms.

"There should be some belongings in Feast's residence. Leave them to me."

Melody quickly ran into the warehouse, and the Booboo Wang not far away smiled evilly. When it entered the feast witch's lair, the scene inside almost made it vomit out everything in its stomach.

Five minutes later.

"Ugh~"

Melody bent down, holding one hand on the wall, and pressed the other hand tightly on her chest. Big tears kept rolling down her cheeks, which was caused by severe retching.

"Even...the black witch, the feast is too cruel, this guy deserves to die here!"

The scene she witnessed a few minutes ago made Melody doubt her life.

There were several soldiers near her who were also retching. These were soldiers who had been on the battlefield. You can imagine how appalling the scene in the Feast Lair was.

"This Mr. Witch Hunter."

A white witch with an ugly face spoke. Her name was Aine Claudia, the lord here, and the big shot Melody wanted to pretend to be.

"This is my thank you."

Aine Claudia handed over a wooden box. As she spoke, the soldiers had begun to process the remains under the warehouse, and the cries of the family members of the deceased could be heard endlessly.

After returning to the carriage, the two reviewed the entire battle.

The attack method of the spell witch is very similar to that of the perception contractor. At the beginning, you can't see where the other party is, and then you will find that a lot of negative conditions appear inexplicably on your body.

Lin Yi did not rush to find out the negative status at that time. Instead, he and Su Xiao pretended to be unconscious and lay down on the floor, thus successfully attracting Keith out.

After the other party revealed his figure, Lin Yi used the purification technique to expel the negative influences from their bodies.

It must be said that the attack method of the spell witch was indeed quite strange, but it was completely restrained by Lin Yi.

As long as she wasn't a level five conjuration witch, Lin Yi was absolutely sure that she could kill her opponent.

"It seems that the witch's overall combat strength is mainly supported by the elemental system."

After this period of research, Lin Yi finally understood the divisions within the witch system.

In the entire system, the elemental witch is equivalent to the warrior role in the war mage and priest system. Not only does it have high output ability, but it is also very frank and has strong damage resistance in the avatar state.

Conjuration witches are equivalent to mages. Their attack damage is extremely considerable, but when it comes to close combat, their combat effectiveness is simply vulnerable, and their attack methods are particularly weird and unique.

The White Witch is similar to a priest, a completely auxiliary profession. Even after incarnation, it has little lethality in most cases. Instead, it has many healing effects and can provide effective support to teammates.

After figuring out these relationships, Lin Yi and Su Xiao almost knew what strategies they should adopt when facing different types of witches.

"Where do we go next?"

Melody led a small bag of gold and silver jewelry onto the carriage. It must be said that this woman really wanted money. She actually ran back to the warehouse midway and plundered a lot from the pile of bloody corpses. money.

"Go straight along this road and go directly to the West District." Su Xiao spread out the map and pointed to a main road leading to the West District.

……

One day later, in a deserted rock city.

Wisps of green smoke were slowly rising from the houses that had turned into charcoal.

When a few people arrived here, half of the city of Nickodoro had been burned to coke, and it was a dilapidated scene.

In the magnificent hall, an old man with a sallow complexion was sitting on a chair.

He was covered with a blanket, and there were several attendants standing beside him. The attendants held various bottles and jars in their hands, and fed the old man a mouthful of the contents from time to time.

"Master Witch Hunter, you are finally here."

The old man sat up tremblingly, but after trying several times, he could not complete such a seemingly simple action.

"Plague?"

Lin Yi came over to check the old man's body and found that the old man was not suffering from the plague, but that there was some kind of vitality in the body that was constantly devouring the old man.

Lin Yi released a healing spell on the old man, temporarily helping the old man recover some of his physical strength.

Purification techniques are useless for this state. To put it bluntly, the old man's current situation is not affected by some conventional negative state. As long as those parasites still exist in the body for one day, the old man's vitality will continue to be sucked out.

Only by cutting off the main body of the parasite can the old man truly recover.

"Thank you, my lord."

After the old man felt that his body had regained strength, he waved his hand, and the attendant on the side brought a glass bottle. There was a black beetle in the glass bottle, which was about the size of a soybean.

"Once bitten by this insect, you will die within 3 to 5 days. Yes, I was also bitten by this little thing."

The old lord lowered his head and signaled his attendants to open his shirt. On his chest, a black pattern that resembled a sea urchin appeared. This pattern looked like a black tattoo.

"I ordered half of the city to be burned. Unfortunately, those little things were not killed. Lord Witch Hunter, no matter what you do next, please blame me. It must be them to avenge my people. It can’t be wrong, it must be..."

Lin Yi took out a scalpel and inserted it directly into the old lord's chest.

This move made several attendants stunned. They subconsciously took out their weapons and aimed them at Lin Yi.

In their hearts, the life safety of the old lord is undoubtedly the most important thing, and there is no room for any mistakes.

At this tense moment, the old lord waved his hand, signaling the attendants not to attack Lin Yi.

Lin Yi turned the scalpel, and then dug out an egg from the old lord's chest. Inside the black egg, something alive seemed to be wriggling. (End of chapter)
