[Tip: The reputation of the hunter Holy Healing Church has reached 430/100 (white level), and you can be promoted to the witch hunter level at the Holy Healing Church headquarters or branches in any city. 】
A. You get 2 golden treasure chests and 1 legendary treasure chest.
B. Spell resistance (unique to this world): Resistance to curses and corrosive abilities of witches of the spell system is increased by 25% (15% of spell resistance has been obtained. The higher the basic resistance, the more difficult it is to increase it later. big).
Lin Yi naturally chose the spell resistance. There was no need to worry about the treasure chest. In this world, witches can be seen everywhere. After all the spell resistance was filled up, Lin Yi and Su Xiao went out to find a few witches to explode the treasure box. That’s it.
Su Xiao chose the legendary treasure chest and 10% spell resistance. For Su Xiao, earning paradise coins is not as easy and satisfying as Lin Yi. The golden treasure chest is optional, but the legendary treasure chest must be obtained.
After collecting the blood, palm prints and incarnation fragments of the three witches in order, Lin Yi and Su Xiao left the castle directly and drove the carriage towards the outside of the city.
Lin Yi and Su Xiao were attacked, and the mastermind behind them must have been secretly instigating them. Seeing such a big commotion in the castle, Lin Yi and Su Xiao knew that the other party would definitely choose to leave.
"Woof!" Bubu Woof barked briefly.
After hearing the sound, Eminem whipped his riding whip and drove the carriage towards a suburb outside the city.
Within ten minutes, several people left the city and arrived near a farm.
As soon as they arrived near the farm, Melody couldn't help but hurriedly lay down by the window of the carriage and vomited violently.
There is a stench that permeates the neighborhood, and weeds are growing wildly on the farm's crop fields. It is a desolate and messy scene. It seems that no one has taken care of it for a long time.
After leaving the carriage, Su Xiao and Lin Yi put on gas masks to block out the stench.
As for Melody, it's better to let her stay in the carriage to avoid suffering this fate again.
After entering the farm, Lin Yi finally found the source of the stench.
Inside the manor of the farm, there were a lot of cow carcasses lying in random directions. These carcasses were stacked on top of each other and had begun to rot and deteriorate, emitting bursts of unbearable rancid smell.
On the corpse, Lin Yi saw some insect eggs glowing red.
Apparently, the carcasses of these cows were the breeding ground used by the witch to cultivate black fish insects.
There are three wooden houses built on this farm.
After using various detection methods such as infrared, thermal induction and sound waves to conduct inspections, the two determined that no one was present in these houses.
Su Xiao strode forward and kicked open the door of the wooden house with a bang. Fortunately, no trap was triggered.
Everything in the wooden house had been evacuated, and a black and red array was outlined on the ground. The black and red color is the color of blood after it dries.
After preliminary observation of the array diagram, Su Xiao was able to determine that the black fish insects were cultivated from here.
[Tip: The hunter has triggered a side mission. 】
[Side mission: The origin of the black fish insect. 】
Difficulty level: Lv.33
Mission introduction: Find the origin of the black fish insect, destroy it and kill the breeder of the black fish insect.
Task period: 2 calendar days.
Mission reward: Dark Crow World reputation +2 points (small fame), soul crystal (large) × 3
Task penalty: 50,000 park coins will be deducted. If the park coins are insufficient, equipment and props of the same value will be deducted.
……
Lin Yi and Su Xiao had not expected this unexpected surprise, so they immediately took over this side mission.
Originally, Lin Yi and Su Xiao were still hesitant, wondering whether to spend a lot of energy tracking this witch.
But for the sake of the (large) soul crystal, even the king of heaven, I, can't save her today.
Lin Yi and Su Xiao's eyes changed color at the same time. Su Xiao used the Devouring Core, and the power of the abyss possessed by Lin Yi had an extremely keen sense of vitality.
In Lin Yi's sight, an extremely strong red mist was lingering in the room, and then turned into a long silk thread, pulling out a trajectory before leaving the farm.
This red mist represents the life force collected by the witch.
With a bang, the wooden floor beneath Lin Yi and Su Xiao's feet shattered, and the two began to follow the traces left by the witch.
As for the carriage, with Amu and Bubuwang there, Su Xiao and Lin Yi wouldn't worry about not being able to keep up.
Arriving in the wilderness, large tracts of weeds appeared in front of them.
Su Xiao released his breath directly, and countless small animals and various poisonous insects that were hidden in the grass fled in all directions, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The two then continued to follow the witch's escape route.
After about three hours, the two finally successfully arrived at a gathering place of humans.
Although this place is called a gathering place, it is not the territory of witches. There are no towering walls and no lords here.
A railway passes through this town, and there is a ticket office in the town.
It is precisely because of this convenient transportation that many businessmen are attracted to gather here, making it a lively and slightly chaotic scene.
The closer we get to this gathering place, the more intense the color of the red mist that represents vitality becomes.
It can be seen that the witch named Mira has slowed down.
She probably didn't think that the enemy could track her. She had destroyed everything in the farm that could track her, leaving only the formation diagram. Its purpose was just to attract the enemy's attention and mislead them.
Arriving at the train station, Lin Yi asked the staff.
I learned from the staff that a train just left here ten minutes ago.
This place is located in the suburbs, and the frequency of trains coming and going is not high. There are only one or two trains throughout the day.
There is no doubt that the witch named Mira is definitely on top of the train that just drove away. The next thing the two need to do is to start chasing the train.
Fortunately, the trains in the Crow World are not very advanced, and their traveling speed is almost the same as the speed of the locomotives during the Industrial Revolution. If it were a modern high-speed train, the two of them would be too exhausted to catch up with the locomotive.
After chasing like this for about half an hour, a locomotive emitting billowing black smoke finally appeared in their field of vision.
Lin Yi and Su Xiao began to accelerate forward, and at the right moment, they suddenly landed on the railing of the last carriage, and then turned over neatly and successfully climbed into the rear carriage of the train.
Inside the train, Lin Yi saw a surge of vitality.
It was obvious that the witch they had been tracking was on the train at the moment.
After observation, this train has a total of 15 carriages. Except for the cockpit in the front and the coal bunker used to store coal, there are only 13 carriages that can accommodate passengers.
The witch named Mira that they have been tracking is hiding in one of the 13 carriages, but it is not yet clear which section it is.
The vitality breath of the other party was like smoke, spreading over the entire train, as if someone had sprayed perfume in the train, and the faint scent could be smelled everywhere.
As a result, it is obviously impossible to identify which carriage the witch is in by tracing her vitality.
Moreover, the current situation is that the enemy is in the open, while Lin Yi and Su Xiao are in the dark. In this case, the most appropriate way is to carry out a sneak attack in secret.
Entering the carriage, Lin Yi found that the last carriage was empty. There were no seats at all. There were many wooden boxes of different sizes placed on both sides, with an aisle in the middle for pedestrians only.
A guard pointed the shotgun in his hand at the two people. In this era, although taking the train can be regarded as a convenient and fast way to travel, due to extremely backward communication methods, train hijacking has become a lot of illegal activities. A good deal in my eyes.
As time passed, the conductors on the train were replaced by burly men, and everyone was equipped with guns to ensure the safety of the train.
As soon as the shotgun in the guard's hand was aimed at the two of them, he quickly put it down.
Because he saw the ring on Su Xiao's hand. Few people would not recognize this ring. It represented the identity of the witch hunter.
"Is there a witch on the train?" The strong man couldn't help but swallowed. He took another look at the dusty appearance of the two people, and it was obvious that they were chasing the train all the way.
For two witch hunters to go to such great lengths to hunt down, there must be a witch on this train.
Lin Yi didn't speak, just nodded.
"Diamond?" Su Xiao's eyes suddenly turned to the shotgun held in the bearded hand and asked.
"Iron sand..." the bearded man responded briefly.
"Then guard the back door of the previous car. If you find anyone jumping out of the car during this period, just shoot, bang."
"Understood!"
The bearded man began to take off his coat as he spoke. Seeing his actions, Lin Yi understood what the other party meant, which made him pretend to be a flight attendant.
"Be sure to kill the witch on the train."
The bearded man's bite muscles bulged out when he spoke. It didn't take much to know that someone in his family had been killed by a witch, so he had such a deep hatred for witches.
Lin Yi then changed into flight attendant clothes, while Su Xiao stood behind Lin Yi with a shotgun, just like a bodyguard.
After taking off the ring, Su Xiao skillfully replaced the iron sand bullets originally loaded in the shotgun with diamonds.
Although the ammunition made of diamond is not particularly lethal, it has an extremely critical role, that is, it can affect the witch's ability to control the avatar. When fighting with the witch, it can be regarded as an item that can take the lead. It’s a powerful weapon for the machine.
The bearded man looked up and down at how Lin Yi and Su Xiao were dressed at the moment, and then motioned for them to wait a moment. Not long after, I saw the bearded man pulling another steward from the car in front.
"This is Matt, my colleague." Big Beard introduced.
As soon as Matt entered the car, he immediately took off his clothes and handed them to Lidya Su.
"Passengers are in carriages 3 to 14, please be careful on the road."
Matt said this when handing the clothes to Lidya Su. Everyone here knows that every time a witch hunting activity is carried out, it is a matter of putting the head on the waistband. No one can say for sure. Can it be successful in the end? "Yeah."
After knowing the key information, the two people left the rear compartment and began to move towards the passenger compartment of the train.
Opening the iron door of Carriage No. 14, Su Xiao and Lin Yi, carrying shotguns, walked into Carriage No. 13. Carriage No. 13 has been used to carry passengers. There are seats on both sides of the car, and one seat can seat two or four people. Sitting opposite.
The train was speeding along the tracks, making a deafening roar.
It felt very noisy when I first got on the bus. After a while, I got used to the roar and even felt that the sound was good. At least I wouldn't be lonely on the journey.
Starting from Car No. 13, there are no iron doors on the front and rear sides of the car, and this continues until Car No. 3. As for the coal bunker in No. 2, the train driver will scold anyone who dares to climb up, and will not listen to any explanation.
After Lin Yi and Su Xiao entered the carriage, several passengers in the carriage subconsciously raised their heads and glanced at them.
After seeing the steward uniforms they were wearing, they lowered their heads one after another, and each of them hurriedly rummaged in their pockets, apparently looking for tickets.
On this kind of train, there is no corresponding situation of ticket seats at all. Passengers only need to buy a ticket and sit down in any empty seat, which is very convenient and casual.
Su Xiao calmly took out a cigarette from his pocket and guarded the flammable and explosive items. It was normal to smoke a cigarette.
The passengers were all silent, some were taking a nap, and some were reading newspapers. The newspapers published by the Holy Healing Church should not be thought of as something that ordinary people could afford. Those who read the newspapers were all wealthy people.
After casually checking the tickets of a few people, Lin Yi shook his head and indicated that there was nothing wrong with this carriage.
Su Xiao nodded, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stamped it out, and headed towards Car No. 12.
After some observation, nothing was found in Car No. 12.
Su Xiao observed No. 11, No. 10, No. 9, and No. 8 one after another. The men simply skipped them, which greatly reduced the difficulty of finding witches.
When Su Xiao arrived at Car No. 7, he found that this car was extremely noisy. Several passengers were gathering to gamble with a few copper coins. The specific rules were unknown.
Lin Yi took a look at Car No. 7 and found that most of the people participating in gambling were men, while women were extremely rare.
In this way, it helped them rule out the possibility of a witch in this carriage in advance.
Entering Car No. 6, as soon as they stepped into the car, the two of them looked at each other at the same time.
In this compartment, all the passengers are sleeping soundly.
You know, there is no partition between Car No. 7 and Car No. 6. The noise in Car No. 7 is so loud that it has no impact on the sleep of the passengers in Car No. 6.
Obviously, there must be some problems with Car No. 6.
As usual, Lin Yi began to randomly check the tickets of the passengers one by one.
Although the passengers who were shaken awake were very angry, they did not say anything after taking out their tickets. After all, ticket checking is the job here.
They walked forward, and within a few steps, the two of them passed by a young woman.
The young woman is wearing a black and red dress, her skin is fair and can be broken with a snap of her fingers.
Just a few meters away, Su Xiao's fingers moved. The next moment, the handle of the shotgun was held in his hand, and the belt on the gun was directly torn off.
The black gun was pointed at the young woman. At this moment, the young woman suddenly opened her eyes.
Bang!
With a loud noise, the gunpowder exploded instantly, and thick white smoke surged out from the muzzle of the shotgun. The white smoke was also mixed with a large number of shining yellow crystal flakes.
Hundreds of sharp diamond fragments sprayed towards the young woman like raindrops.
The young woman reacted very quickly, stretched out one hand forward, and a ball of energy emitting a strange green light appeared in front of her.
The diamond fragments were submerged in the green dim light, and most of them were successfully blocked by the dim light. Only a few fragments penetrated the dim light with strong impact and sank into the young woman's body.
The young woman groaned, and the blood vessels in her neck swelled rapidly, like small green snakes twisting under the skin.
At the same time, purple light came out from the depths of her eyes, and there was a strong aura of coldness and evil in that light.
There is no doubt that this woman is the witch Mira they are looking for.
Although Mira blocked the large diamond fragments, she could not ignore the impact of these fragments.
Under the force of this impact, the back of the seat behind her broke instantly, and her entire body fell backwards uncontrollably.
The reason why the passengers in this carriage fell into a deep sleep was due to Mira's influence.
During this period, Mira was constantly running around, so she inevitably felt sleepy and exhausted.
In order to allow herself to sleep peacefully and not be disturbed by the passengers in the same carriage who looked like ants to her, she resorted to various means to make most of the passengers in the carriage fall into a deep sleep. among.
After the deafening gunshots, all the passengers who were sleeping soundly were awakened by the sudden loud noise. Everyone had a confused look on their face, and they obviously didn't understand what happened. .
At this time, Lin Yi was naturally not idle either. He opened his fingers and the dark soul thread appeared on Mira's body, tightly binding Mira to the seat in the blink of an eye.
Lin Yi randomly took out his own spray gun and fired a shot at Mira.
This time, Mira had no chance to resist.
Dozens of diamond fragments carried a powerful impact and shot straight into Mira's body.
In an instant, Mira's body slumped down like an old rag doll.
The scarlet blood also gurgled out from the many wounds on her body, dyeing the black and red dress she was wearing a bright red, making it look particularly dazzling.
"Damn it, you think you can kill me like this?"
Mira looked at the muzzles of the two men and immediately controlled the power of the elements. Under the impact of this power, the seat was instantly destroyed to pieces, and sawdust scattered everywhere.
Lin Yi used to rely on the dark soul thread to tie Mira tightly to the seat. Now that the seats are gone, the dark soul thread that bound Mira has naturally lost its focus.
After getting out of trouble, Mira didn't dare to delay at all. She turned over and quickly rolled towards the back of a row of seats.
At this time, she no longer cared about the dignity of being a fourth-stage witch, and rushed to the back of the car while crawling.
Mira had just summoned up enough energy to rush out of the carriage. At this critical moment, three bullets struck her in a zigzag pattern.
She quickly shrank behind the seat. She was only one step away from the carriage door, but if she rushed over, she would be shot at least a few times, or even a dozen times.
When, when, when...
There were three crisp sounds, sparks flew, and the three bullets punched three transparent holes in the side wall of the carriage. The metal around the holes was slightly deformed, which showed how powerful the impact of the bullets was.
At this time, Mira, Lin Yi and Su Xiao were about ten meters apart.
Due to the shot Lin Yi had just fired, the diamond fragments loaded in the gun had a great impact on Mira, causing her to be unable to use her incarnation ability normally.
To be more precise, even if she forcibly uses her incarnation ability at this moment, the incarnation summoned by then will not have any substantive effect. Instead, it will only consume her own power in vain.
"Witch hunter, if you dare to take a step forward, all the humans in this carriage will die..." Mira hid behind the seat and roared at the top of her lungs, trying to threaten Lin Yi and Su Xiao so that they would not dare to continue. approaching.
When, when...
Two more gunshots were fired, and sparks flew up.
The two bullets grazed the side of Mira's face and flew past, and the whistling airflow even picked up a few strands of her hair.
Her originally fair face was trembling constantly at this moment. It was obvious that threatening the two of them with the lives of those civilians seemed to be of no use.
Smoke was constantly coming out of the wounds on Mila's chest and abdomen, which looked quite strange.
The diamond fragments in her body are slowly dissolving at a speed visible to the naked eye. Once these diamonds are completely dissolved, Mira will be able to use her incarnation ability again.
But the process of dissolving diamond was obviously very painful. The expression on Mira's face began to twitch uncontrollably, and her brows knitted tightly together.
Just when Su Xiao was about to step forward and kill Mira, Mira suddenly waved her hand, and a green crystal emitting a strange light was thrown towards them.
Lin Yi immediately released a powerful shield to block Su Xiao. Almost at the same moment, the green crystal suddenly exploded violently.
With a loud bang, the green solution splashed and dripped around like raindrops.
In just a very short period of time, a large area of the iron sheet on the carriage floor was corroded by the highly corrosive green solution, and the sound of corrosion was endless. If it was directly hit by this green crystal, the consequences would be absolutely devastating. No joke.
"Ah!!"
A burst of frightened screams suddenly sounded in Car No. 6. The civilians who had been frightened by the sudden battle were now running desperately towards the front and rear cars, just wanting to escape from this dangerous place as soon as possible.
With a scream, the civilian was caught in front of Mira, with a look of pain on his face. He felt the blood in his body being quickly withdrawn, his head was dizzy, and his body began to feel cold.
As blood was continuously drawn from Mira, the gunshot wound in Mira's lower abdomen began to recover rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, many diamond fragments in her body that had not yet been completely dissolved were slowly expelled from her body under the influence of this drawn power.
But at the next moment, a large amount of blood spattered on her face. Looking closely, the civilian she caught was shot through the head by Lin Yi with a bullet.
Mira threw the body aside angrily. Just when she wanted to capture another civilian, her stretched out arm was pierced by a bullet. Because the movement of stretching out her hand also exposed the position, a bullet hit the back of her head.
There was a buzz in Mira's head, and the surroundings became dead silent. She turned her head and looked at a little girl in the corner beside her. This was her 'insurance'.
After a moment, Mira, whose hands were full of blood, dropped the child's body and touched the back of her head. Her broken skull had recovered.
The passengers in the carriage turned into birds and beasts and dispersed. In an instant, only Lin Yi, Su Xiao and Mira were left in the carriage, still standing in a stalemate. (End of chapter)
