The Divine Hunter Chapter 10: Mutated monster
Twilight envelopes the earth, and the first quarter moon hangs high in the sky.
Maribo under the moonlight is divided into two very different halves. One half is located within the towering city wall. The exquisite buildings are brightly lit, the taverns are bustling and noisy, and soldiers patrol the streets.
Half of the city wall is located outside the city wall. Collapsed house walls, broken and cracked ground with overgrown weeds, domestic garbage left by homeless people and beggars, dirty beds can be seen everywhere, and there are huge craters everywhere that look like meteorites hitting the ground. , the howling of wolves and wild dogs sounded from time to time in the dark corners, and insects chirped among the shrubs and sparse poplar trees.
What is even more terrifying is that a ravine spanning a hundred meters has broken the entire old city into pieces. Even the moonlight cannot illuminate its details, like a giant python dormant in the darkness.
Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
One after another, black shadows jumped across the ravines, landing silently like antelopes jumping over the ravines. Their cloaks absorbed the moonlight, making them as black as night.
The figure is ghostly and disappears in the blink of an eye.
Buzzing…
They discovered a black winter entrance beside a patch of red roses in the southwest of the crack.
"The Thirteenth Sewer in the Old City."
Roy and his companions exchanged glances.
Invariably, the five fingers are outlined.
The golden and jet black shield covers the thin leather armor.
Gulugulu.
The cat swallowed the magic potion,
The pupils are dilated, easily penetrating the night, and seeing the night as day.
Roy took the lead and walked down the creaky old wooden ladder.
Just two seconds later, he landed smoothly. A pair of silver-gray pupils flickered, illuminating a dark and ancient corridor. The side walls were pitted, hung with vines and weeds, and covered with slippery moss.
The old city has been abandoned for many years, but it is connected underground to the sewers of Maribo City and accepts domestic garbage and sewage in the city.
As a result, it is dark, humid, and emits a strong odor.
……
Both sides of the corridor lead to unknown darkness, bringing in rotten, stench and fermented air.
A dark, sticky river flows in the central ditch of the pipe, mixed with all kinds of garbage, rotten food residues, excrement, and all kinds of strange floating objects: boots, tattered clothes, and the bones of small animals.
Kyyan and a reluctant Triss were arranged to guard the entrance to prevent unexpected situations.
Eleven demon hunters, Coral, and Kalkstein walked on both sides of the passage, cautiously, with gentle steps, trying to stay quiet.
Roy squatted half-crouched like a hunting cat, and with a thought, the demon hunter's senses were activated.
A criss-crossing and radiant ribbon appeared in mid-air.
Represents the scent of mice, lizards, poisonous snakes, cockroaches... small animals and insects.
But unfortunately, none of them are related to demon hunters and warlocks.
He was not discouraged. The four great masters were all experts at concealment, and it was commonplace to eliminate traces neatly.
So according to the instructions on the sewer structure diagram, we headed towards the center of the sewer, the area with the largest space.
After a quarter of an hour of marching, the dark corridors branched off from time to time, but the demon hunters did not divide their troops into separate groups. This was a dangerous act in a strange territory.
It was unusually calm along the way.
Not to mention the water ghosts and ghouls that often appear in the sewers... there are only a few larger rats, but plants and herbs in the dark ecology can be seen everywhere, thriving and thriving.
"Crack!"
Ochs, who was at the front of the team on the left, suddenly stopped, controlled the trembling Snake Pie pendant around his neck, and made a stop gesture to everyone.
Squatting down, his left hand was less than two feet off the ground, and his fingers quickly made an Alder gesture.
The wind is blowing.
The dust and mud on the ground were blown away, revealing a circular array, compact and compact, like a disk.
There are several ancient characters engraved in it, vaguely arranged in the shape of radiating flames. Just looking at them makes people feel a little burning.
"Fire rune...the simplest magic trap." Kalkstein in the crowd glanced at it and explained in a suppressed voice...
"So we are in the right place!"
Roy suppressed the excitement in his tone and his eyes flashed with excitement.
"Ordinary people, including most demon hunters, are not capable of creating magic traps... It can only be the work of Idalan or Arzu." Seret looked at the brothers solemnly, "Be sure to be more careful next time If something goes wrong, don’t be stingy about teleporting crystals!”
The darkness ahead hid unknown dangers. In less than ten minutes' journey, everyone discovered more than 30 mechanisms.
Not only the magic traps of flame, explosion, frost, and ecstasy, but also trigger-type traps and steel traps made of ordinary materials...
Fortunately, the team includes both Oaks and Seret, demon hunters who are proficient in all kinds of traps, as well as Coral and Kalkstein, two experts in the field of magic.
They can always avoid the mechanisms in the most subtle way, keeping them in their original position silently, and advancing covertly and quickly along the way.
In the ditches along the way, excrement began to increase, including undigested rats and snakes, as well as the bones of cattle, sheep, pigs, and other large domestic animals.
These things are very likely to appear in the sewers, so who brought them in?
Everyone's steps became more cautious.
In front of the passage near the 30th corner.
The two demon hunters at the front of the team stopped at the same time, controlled the shaking pendant around their necks, controlled their breathing, and everyone remained quiet.
Look ahead.
Abnormality occurs in dim vision.
A standing human figure is projected on the wall at the corner.
The lines on the back, legs, and hands are clearly visible.
However, it was too strong, with a height of nearly three meters, almost touching the ceiling of the sewer. Its slightly stooped back formed a toned inverted triangle, and its muscles were so exaggerated that they seemed ready to explode at any moment.
It has no neck, and its pointed head is directly connected to its back and bent forward, forming a cone-shaped projection.
It is reminiscent of a mouse head magnified a hundred times. From the changes in the projection on the wall, we can see that its slender snout opens and closes, and the wisps of steel needle-like beards at the corners of its mouth tremble.
A pair of paws are holding something and gnawing at it.
Kaz Kaz.
There are bursts of chewing sounds that are almost unnoticeable, but if you listen carefully, they make your scalp numb.
The expressions of the demon hunters became very exciting.
Judging from that weird projection, I can’t figure out what kind of monster this thing is even after racking my brains.
The differences with ghouls, water ghosts and bat-winged demons are very obvious.
But this time, they couldn't get around it any more.
……
Everyone crouched down and pressed against the wall, slowly moving in that direction.
The mass-produced silent cloak with double seals perfectly covers body odor and footsteps.
The humanoid creature was completely revealed in front of everyone, a living rat-man, with no hair on the body of a sturdy man, and his skin was covered with a layer of black and thick mane.
A black snake-like tail behind him wrapped around his left leg, tightening and loosening.
The eight nails on the two front paws were like eight daggers with cold light, flowing with blood. They were inserted into the body of a goat that had been dead for a long time and had turned black. He held it in his arms.
The scarlet eyes are full of greed and cunning.
As the big mouth of the blood basin opened and closed, a row of jagged and sharp saw-like teeth gently tore off a **** piece of hairy meat from the goat.
While chewing, he stretched out his barbed tongue to lick and clean the blood-stained mane on his body.
……
Roy glanced at the people behind him, grabbed the hand crossbow from the void, and pulled the trigger without aiming.
Whoosh
The bowstring hums.
The arrow tore through the dirty air in the sewer and drew a straight line of silver light.
The moment the arrow hit his body, the rat man stood upside down with his mane covered in hair.
It’s like turning into a short-haired hedgehog!
"Bang!"
The tail whip whipped out like lightning, so fast that it outlined a series of afterimages in mid-air.
Bah!
The invincible crossbow arrow was actually knocked away by its tail!
The half-cut tail fell to the ground.
It had no time to react further.
A dangerous **** light spurted out from the junction between the tail and the arrow, instantly wrapping the rat-man, who was so strong that it almost occupied the entire sewer, into a cocoon of blood!
A figure standing with a sword was reflected on the wall.
The sword blade pierced the air, making several dull sounds in succession.
The sky is full of blood, sword light, and runes complement each other.
Crash.
A large piece of steaming flesh fell to the ground.
Head, chest, abdomen...
The mutated body possesses both strength and agility. Before it could show its power, it was chopped into several pieces by a long sword.
The ugly rat head rolled to Roy's feet, with a fierce expression on his face.
Kill the Ratman transformation, experience value +300, Demon Hunter lv13 (17000/14500
……
"Huh..." Roy breathed out and shook off the blood on the tip of the sword.
Squatting down, he skillfully put on a pair of leather gloves and stirred the pile of **** corpses. A large, oval-shaped red mutation-inducing substance soon appeared in his palm.
And a long metal plate.
It is deeply embedded in the flesh and blood of the rat man's back, and a line of unknown text ULExIX0008 is engraved on the surface.
"No. 8..." Leisuo took out another long metal plate from the storage ring, "The number of the multi-legged monster we found in Amer Mountain back then was 22 No., the letters are the same."
"These modified creatures belong to a series." Geralt nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, the creator is Arzu or Idalan, experts in the fields of mutation and biological modification!"
"A master-level flesh and blood transformation product, but it is not just a splicing of flesh and blood. The reaction on the body seems to be similar to the mutation of a demon hunter. Maybe this cute little body is really a mouse." Kalkstein held up the mouse. The human's big plush head rubbed its saw-like yellow teeth, then he grabbed a pair of tweezers and several test tubes from the air, and took out some body fluids, beards, and body tissues.
Koen's three-color shining pupils stared at the still bottomless tunnel behind the Rat Man, which was dark, smelly, and filled with a strange mystery.
It was like a bottomless abyss, and I couldn't help but tense up.
"Guys, I have a feeling this is just the beginning, there are more disgusting scraps to come." Eskar said.
"Kill this pet." Coral brushed the fluffy red hair behind her head, worry appeared on her pretty face, "Arzu has probably discovered our invasion! Set up a dragnet."
"It's not certain who will deal with who." Lambert's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc.
……
Eskar's crow's beak takes effect when passing through a fork in the road full of pipes.
An overwhelming number of mutated creatures emerged from the dark silhouettes.
"Bang!"
A blazing sword light danced in the dark sewer.
Opposite it is a thick tail, covered with dark green square scales, with a strong wind like a steel knife scraping bones, and it collides hard with the steel sword.
Blood splatters!
A corner of the tail was cut open by a sharp sword, but the huge force on it knocked the steel sword back.
Then a man stood up, more than two meters tall, holding a monster with a flat and long head, roaring like thunder, and rushed towards the direction where the steel sword was swung.
The tail swinging crazily from side to side turned the ditch into a mess!
A pair of dark hook-like claws in front of him waved horizontally.
Bang!
The sound of gold and iron clashing, the blade of the sword rubbing against the **** claws continuously, sweat and blood flying all over the sky.
The burst of fire illuminated the dark sewer.
And the cold face of the bald man.
The left hand quickly outlined the light blue seal!
Press the ground!
Magic pours out of the spell.
Bombardment.
The crocodile man was pushed by Alder and stumbled backwards.
Ta-ta-ta!
Dirty water splashed everywhere.
Lesuo strode forward, raised the steel sword with both hands and aimed it at the crocodile man's chest and abdomen, slashing from top to bottom.
"Wow"
A slanted **** was opened in Bai Shengsheng's abdomen, and blood flowed horizontally.
But it seemed to feel no pain, its body only swayed slightly, and it immediately stared at the cold-blooded animals and predators, with its unique bulging amber pupils, and waved its arms and claws and its horn-covered "steel" tail to the prey. The demons fought continuously.
Bang bang!
A frighteningly strong wind blew in the sewer.
Two figures entangled together!
Rotate and collide!
The sparks and explosions were continuous.
The steel sword was blocked three times by its hard **** body.
The fourth time.
The bald man suddenly dug his toes into the ground, jumped up, and jumped over the steel tail that swept the ground with the agility of an ape.
Lightly landed.
The long sword stabs continuously.
The first blow hit its weakest protected nose.
The second blow hit its protruding left eye, and penetrated its barren brain with overwhelming force.
In the dark sewer, two huge figures stood facing each other.
Quiet for a moment.
Poof!
The crocodile man fell heavily to the ground face to face. Dust and sewage filled the air. His tail barely touched the ground and swept twice due to a nervous reaction, and he was completely calm.
"Boom!"
A dazzling fire suddenly lit up at another corner of the passage where the bald man was.
Keen of the Griffin Faction waved his hands in a dizzying manner, and a crimson inverted triangle was suspended between his two palms.
The blazing flames roared out, forming a cone-shaped flame area on his chest.
A monster with an extremely irregular shape, constantly changing and squirming, like two sesame seeds growing out of a pile of mud. When grilled by flames, it emitted a pungent stench of **** and urine~IndoMTL.com~ lay exhausted on the ground, It quickly melts into a black corrosive liquid.
……
On the other side of the corridor, two people from the Cat School surrounded a monster with its skin peeled off and its back covered with sharp bone spurs.
It is similar to the Bloodthorn Corpse Demon, but it has anti-arch legs like a bat-winged demon and abnormal jumping ability.
He kept making eardrum-piercing screams and jumping up and down in the narrow passage.
But he was trapped in the sword net by two figures one behind the other, his skin cracked and stained red with blood.
……
The four people from the Wolf School, with their faces covered with black veins, were besieging a mutated rock troll with fangs and claws and a turtle shell like hard horn on its back.
Stepping on a flexible pace, the seals and swordsmanship work together seamlessly.
The troll's angry roar became lower and lower, gradually becoming desperate.
……
Coral and Kalkistan are protected in the center by the demon hunters, taking on the responsibility of assisting and repairing leaks.
The whole body is filled with dazzling magic light, and the hands are outlined, and the magic is used at every opportunity to interfere with and immobilize the various monsters that are fighting with everyone.
……
As for Roy, he was walking among the mountains of corpses and sea of blood with a stern expression.
The floor was covered with corpses, grotesque monsters, and mutated monsters.
Either died from a headshot by a black arrow, or was pierced by blood and light, split in half by a **** slash, or smashed into pieces by a black dragon... No modified creature was his enemy.
He holds the crossbow with his left hand and drags the sword with his right hand.
Striding like a meteor.
Blood slid down the tip of the sword.
The blood around him condensed into flames, burning quietly.
The figure walked through the dirty and evil dark corridor without stopping.
Come to a wall of moss and vines at the end.
Five fingers outline the dark Kelamp seal.
The illusion is dispelled.
A pale electric light rushed toward me!
