Chapter 56 Hunter-Xiao En
Don’t come over!
There was a hint of panic in the monster's scream. It wanted to escape, even if it was to escape back to the spirit world.
But Xiao En will not let it escape.
"Do you only dare to bully mortals?" A cold smile appeared on the corner of Xiao En's mouth.
In fact, monster creatures are not that scary, because when you become one of the monsters, they will start to be afraid of you.
Under the tug and pull of two invisible hands and two black tentacles of evil thoughts, the headless lantern man was completely dragged out. The invisible hands pulled out each of its intestines, filthy Mucus invisible to the naked eye is flowing everywhere in the room, and the black tentacles of evil thoughts are even more brutal, directly wrapping around half of its body, and even the bones are twisted to a certain extent under the tightening. This kind of flesh-and-blood transformation spell, especially It's a tentacle type with very high additional strength attributes.
"Gemma is a wizard who specializes in the transformation system. The transformation spell on the flesh side can also directly harm the spirit body."
The extraordinary nature of the source of this spell may be the tentacles of scavenger insects, as shown above Evil thoughts attached with negative energy.
The two five-meter-long suction cup tentacles move on their own, like sharp black meat whips, and will not affect Gemma’s other movements at all. As long as she can maintain her concentration in casting, she can even perform additional Use other spells.
ah!
Amidst the screams that sounded like a night owl, the rickety lantern monster was dragged out of the crack in the spiritual world by two wizards and slammed into the center of the ceremony.
A flash of cold light suddenly appeared.
Benjamin pulled out the streamer at the moment Xiao En took action. The silvery white light flashed past. The lantern holder, who had lost half of his body, was divided into two halves again. One of his pale arms flew towards Xiao En, as if trying to strangle him by the throat.
——Dimension jump.
Xiao En's figure suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, two invisible hands had blocked the enemy's pale hands that could move on their own after being chopped off.
At this time.
An activated intestine wrapped around Benjamin's arm like a rope, and squirmed along the arm towards the neck, like a black poisonous snake. The moment it came into contact with his body, the negative energy emerging from the intestines began to absorb Benjamin's physical energy, making him tired and tired. At the same time, a little trace of aging appeared on Benjamin's skin, just like age spots, a piece of withered and lost Vibrant skin emerges and spreads.
This is negative energy erosion, which will take away the vitality of the target. After all, reality is not a game. It is not as simple as losing blood. It may cause permanent aging.
A feeling of regret filled the room.
Benjamin didn't care about this. He directly tore off the tough black intestine with his bare hands, and then thrust the stream of light in his hand straight into it. The blade penetrated the monster's lower abdomen and came out at the chest cavity.
Gemma seemed to be affected by some negative emotions, and the second spell was not cast.
Bang!
Xiao En drew his gun, locked the target with his spirituality, and exploded the human head 'lantern' it was holding with one shot. This ghost thing kept making a piercing scream, affecting the two wizards. The spell-casting rhythm interrupts their spell-casting concentration state.
A silver-white bullet shot out. The moment it came into contact with the monster, the bullet erupted with a strong energy wave. The head was like an exploding watermelon, and it was all over the room. Splatters of flesh and blood. When the extraordinary relic inside the bullet was activated, there was only a moment of white light shining, and the power was greater than imagined.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Under Benjamin's stream of light, the lantern monster in front of him was quickly dismembered, and then the ground was covered with horrific pieces of flesh and blood, but it was still not dead. The severed pale hand was still crawling on the ground and torn off. His intestines were squirming like an earthworm. Although his body was cut into a human stick, the lantern holder was still trying to assemble his broken body and get up.
"The characteristics of the undead wandering soul?"
"Is it the evil spirit from Sleepy Hollow?" Xiao En frowned.
Sleepy Hollow is one of the landmarks of the spiritual world.
Just like Candlekeep, Sleepy Hollow is also a famous place in the spiritual world. It is said that thousands of human heads can be seen rolling in the valley from time to time. The birth of this place has something to do with the traditional human beheading behavior. Although the guillotine has been abolished in many places, the headless ghosts still linger in Sleepy Hollow in the spiritual world.
He turned around and motioned for Gemma to go out first, then glanced at Benjamin next to him, and said solemnly: "I'll handle it."
"Be careful of the explosion."
Benjamin He nodded quickly, left the room, and closed the door.
Da.
Xiao En took out a bottle from his shirt pocket, and then opened it. A hint of sulfur smell spread, and as he snapped his fingers, a chaotic blue flame spread in all directions, and the raging flames swept across the entire place like a wave. In the room, the violent explosion directly shattered the doors and windows.
"Ahem!..."
Xiao En, who was so dashing just a second ago, walked out of the room a little disgraced. Although the flames summoned by the Explosive Flame Technique would not hurt him, , but the aftermath of the explosion made him miserable.
"Be careful next time you use this spell in the room."
Xiao En patted the dust on his body. The corpse of the lantern holder on the ground had been completely charred. The power of the explosive fire spell was indeed It was very big, and the entire area of about six meters in diameter was completely burned.
——Endless Regret [Extraordinary Relic].
Under the slight excitement of knowledge, a strange dark blue intestine was left behind. There is no doubt that this is the extraordinary relic condensed after its death.
“Does this mean your intestines are full of regret?” Xiao En suddenly thought of a cold joke.
He thought about it and decided not to tell Benjamin this cold joke because Benjamin might not understand it.
“Huh?”
Gemma's surprised voice came. In her hand, she held a piece of broken scalp, which also had a strange spiritual light.
Two extraordinary relics?
This is a very rare thing, unless the headless lantern man has swallowed some other strange creature before.
“The spiritual light of this relic is relatively weak.” Gemma appraised it and said.
Her identification skills seem to be a little different from Xiao En's, because Gemma uses spiritual light to identify extraordinary relics.
——Lantern’s scalp [extraordinary relic].
Creatures in the spirit world are more difficult to deal with. They should be considered elite monsters in the weird country, because they can change reality and reality, and it is difficult to kill them with ordinary firearms. Extraordinaries on the Ranger path, such as Hank, will be at a disadvantage against incorporeal monsters unless they use special bullets.
"Take care of it first and seal the relics."
Benjamin glanced at Xiao En and after confirming that he had only made himself disgraced, he immediately said to Gemma: "Give it to me first. The people from the logistics department will take care of it to see if the contamination on it can be cleaned up.”
The extraordinary relics that Xiao En obtained previously have been cleaned, and the remaining consciousnesses of strange creatures are still on them. .
For example, the piece of 'Endless Regret', that dark blue intestine, will be shrouded in the negative emotion of 'regret' as long as you get close to it. Wizards who extract extraordinary relics to obtain spells will also be slightly mentally polluted. Generally, the degree of pollution of extraordinary relics that have been processed will be much lighter, which is equivalent to an additional purification ritual.
"He is also a poor man."
Xiao En took out a stick of incense and lit it, which was a sign of homage to the other person.
After all, we are all seniors.
When it's time to take action, he will never be lenient, but after handling it, he still has to be careful.
This man was also a decent person during his lifetime, but unfortunately he failed to survive the inner demons in the end.
Supernatural people must learn to accept that as their strength increases, they will turn into monsters little by little, because they originally used the power of monsters.
“It is better to have people without spiritual vision, such as those extraordinary beings who are born ‘illiterate’.”
Click on the barbarian path here, because their mid- and low-sequences rarely get out of control. Less brains are good.
The next finishing work is the logistics department.
Benjamin stayed to take charge of the aftermath, while Xiao En and Gemma reported back to the headquarters first. People from the logistics department would repeatedly inspect the scene to erase all traces of the supernatural.
It was already half past seven in the evening when everything was done.
When Xiao En returned to his residence, he bought a flavored burrito and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and ate them while walking. "Today's monsters haven't made me try my best."
"If it's a one-on-one challenge, I should be able to handle it."
Xiao En evaluated his own strength in his mind. He found that the ability of the wizard path was indeed more flexible and changeable than the extraordinary people of other paths. Xiao En still had some strength left when he started today. He had never used invisibility, but with this kind of monster There is no need to hide and seek when fighting.
With human extraordinary beings as imaginary enemies, Xiao En's combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.
"I wonder how Hank is doing?"
"How about inviting him to the Roman Palace another day? Have some fun and relax?" Xiao En took out the key and opened the door.
There was a sound of footsteps at the top of the stairs.
A middle-aged man with an elegant appearance walked up. When he saw Xiao En, he nodded slightly to indicate that he was the neighbor who lived opposite him.
"It's better to keep a proper distance from ordinary people."
Xiao En nodded in response and quickly closed the door. Extraordinary people are indeed not suitable for getting too close to ordinary people. Hank's wife is an ordinary person. He finally made the decision to divorce. He must have been struggling and hesitating for a long time, so much so that he still can't let go of everything.
“Fortunately, I didn’t think about getting married.”
Xiao En took off his coat and made himself a cup of strong tea. He wanted to drink some green tea and would see if he could buy it another day. get.
More than a month passed quickly like this.
Xiao En still couldn't come back in time to invite Hank to the Roman Palace, because Hank applied for a long vacation the day after the incident to go back to his hometown. His hometown is a small coastal town in the Naples area. place.
…………
In a dark and cold cemetery.
As the dark clouds surged, a faint gleam of moonlight emerged. In front of a newly buried grave, a group of weird, rickety creatures that looked like slender hunting dogs were digging into the grave in front of them. They had similar features. They have human limbs, but they are crawling. Their rickety bodies are like hunting dogs, covered with black hair. Their abdomens are bulging, and their sharp claws seem to be tearing something. The air is filled with the smell of blood and decay. The faces of these monsters have six human-like outlines, but their cloudy eyes glow coldly in the dark night.
A breeze blew.
The leaves not far away stirred, and then a shallow footprint appeared on the ground. No living creatures could be seen in the empty wilderness. A eating monster looked back warily. After discovering anything, he lowered his head again to chew something.
In the darkness, a figure that was more profound than these monsters was slowly approaching. With a clicking sound, several monsters raised their heads warily.
But it's too late.
Xiao En's figure suddenly appeared, and then appeared across the cemetery in front of the group of monsters. A cluster of faint blue flames suddenly appeared, followed by an extremely violent explosion and rising flames. With him as the center, it spread in all directions.
The rolling heat wave turned everything within a six-meter diameter into a sea of fire.
Boom!
The air waves of the explosion directly overturned these monsters, and even the tombstones that collapsed were shattered into pieces. The burning fire made these monsters let out a shrill scream, and the flames burned in them. The fire spread all over their bodies, causing them to roll all over the ground, trying to put out the ignited black hairs.
Bang bang bang!
A burst of fierce gunfire rang out, and calm returned after just a few seconds. Xiao En put away his weapon expressionlessly, blew away the smoke from his fingertips, and waved not far away: "Notify the people in the logistics department."
“Come here and clean up.”
………………
Wetland Town.
This is about thirty kilometers away from the city of Dorne. It is a small town within the jurisdiction with a population of less than 120,000.
The moonlight is brighter tonight.
In the southwest of the town, there are several figures running wildly on the spacious streets. The surrounding doors and windows are closed. Clusters of torches can be seen in the distance. At the corner of the street, a dark and sturdy figure flashes. It passed by, running at an astonishing speed. It flew along the vertical wall, and jumped over the obstacle. When it landed, it revealed a furry and ferocious face that looked like a wolf, with a snarl at the corner of its mouth. There were residual filthy blood stains.
Behind it was William, who was chasing after him. Even with his strong physical strength as a warrior, he could not catch up with this fast-running humanoid monster.
"Sean. It ran to the right." William held a strange metal box in his hand.
This is a small strange object, blessed with communication skills.
Under the light of the bright moon.
Xiao En's slender and tall figure appeared at the entrance of the street not far away. He was wearing a large black windbreaker. His hairstyle had also changed slightly from the past. It was a bit like the side-swept back hair of the Hong Kong style in his previous life, and his handsome features were in the shadows. It emerges with a mysterious and decadent atmosphere, as if it were an exorcist coming out of the darkness.
"Understood."
Xiao En raised his finger and moved it for a moment. With a click, the lighter in his hand went out. His figure flew up the stairs and soon arrived. Rooftop location.
In front of him, there was a gap of nearly ten meters between the two buildings facing the street. Xiao En judged the monster's escape route, visually measured the distance between the buildings, then took a deep breath and began to accelerate. Ben, the moment he reached the edge of the building, his figure leapt out, directly spanning more than half the distance.
It is almost difficult for a transcendent who is not enhanced by flesh and blood to rely on physical strength to fly such a long distance.
Xiao En's figure began to fall after the inertia was exhausted. It was four stories above the ground. If he fell, he would basically not die or be disabled.
——Dimension jump.
Xiao En's figure suddenly disappeared between the flying floors, and appeared directly on the roof of the opposite building the next second. Without any pause, he took out a modified short-barreled shotgun. , determined the general location, relied on spirituality to lock the target's escape direction, then quickly climbed over the fence on the roof, and jumped to the opposite balcony.
Although Xiao En is an extraordinary person who can cast spells, the physical fitness of any extraordinary person is far beyond that of ordinary people.
“Hoo!”
Xiao En looked at the street on the ground. His current position was about twenty meters high, four and a half floors high. After taking a deep breath, he jumped directly from the top of the building.
The wind howled.
During the extremely fast falling feeling, Xiao En tightened his grip on the short-barreled shotgun. The moment he was very close to the ground, his figure suddenly disappeared, and the next second he appeared out of thin air in the street. Lane exit.
Flash to the ground.
"Good evening." Xiao En looked at the aberrant wolf running out of the alley, and pulled the trigger in its eyes full of horror and disbelief.
Bang!
The close-range enhanced shotgun shot directly smashed the monster's ferocious head. Its broken and strong body relied on inertia to fly several meters. The moment Xiao En sideways dodged, it directly hit him hard. There was a pool of filthy and foul-smelling blood on the wall.
"Done."
"Notify the people in the logistics department."
Xiao En put away the shotgun in his hand and tidied his windbreaker, which was stained with There were bloodstains on him. After all, he was an extraordinary person in the wizarding path. He was not agile enough to avoid the blood spraying in front of him.
He took out his lighter, turned it around in his palm, looked at William running across the street, raised his eyebrows and said, "Call it done."
"Let's go have a drink later?"
< br>William looked at the pool of black blood in the corner, shrugged and said, "Okay. Just take a break."
"How many times has this been your mission?"
Xiao En thought for a while and said: "Including the time in the university town, this should be the sixth time."
A breeze blew by.
The figures of the two people gradually disappeared across the street. About fifteen minutes later, some men in black, obviously dressed in the logistics department, came to the scene and began to clean up all traces of supernatural existence nearby.
