The Divine Hunter Chapter 61: Plan to kill evil spirits
After half a day, no complete body was found in the mine.
Roy's entire figure looked like he had just been fished out of a sea of blood from a mountain of corpses. The linen lining, outer leather armor, and trousers were all stained with blood, minced meat, and soft tissue. His originally clean face was not spared either. There was an extremely unpleasant smell of sweat and fishy odor that made his nose numb.
He couldn't help but want to take out some water and wash it off.
"Kid, don't waste clean water. We have to stay in Smirk for at least a week, and every drop must be saved!" The demon hunter who was sitting on the ground wiping the sword of Guwyshir shouted to stop his behavior.
This guy's appearance is not much better either. His body is covered in evil ghost flesh and blood, and he looks like a giant bald man soaked in flesh and blood.
But he ignored it.
"I can tolerate the dirt and smell. But at least let me wash my hands." Roy thought of some possibility and couldn't help showing a look of disgust on his face. "I don't want to accidentally clean the devil's mouth while eating. Swallow the flesh and blood into your mouth."
"Heh... then you can use it as you like." The demon hunter said nothing, turned away, and started stroking the sword again, "There will not be enough drinking water by then... Although the blood of evil spirits is worse than horse urine, But quenching thirst in a short time is not a problem."
"Okay, you win." Roy gritted his teeth and gave in helplessly. It is obvious that thirst is more deadly than hunger, and clean drinking water is indeed precious. "If you don't wash it, I won't wash it. I can't bear it for a week!"
"To be honest, kid, now you have some of the temperament you should have, and you look more pleasing to the eye!" Lei Suo said seriously, "If you can't even stand this filth and stench, how can you become a A qualified witcher?"
In order to comfort the boy, he gave another example,
"Do you know the Corruption Demon?"
"I read from my notes that a carnivore creature looks like an ooze monster," Roy's attention was immediately diverted and he recalled, "It feeds on carrion, human corpses, and waste...it lives in many places. In wet and dirty environments such as sewers, swamps, and wetlands."
"I'll tell you something specific," the witcher frowned, remembering a bad experience, "Years ago, when I was just twenty years old, I had just left Visgaard for a few years, and I was very ambitious. I searched for monsters all over the world, preparing to show off my skills and make a name for myself. Finally, I found a commission to eradicate the Corruption Demons on the banks of the Alba River... Based on the traces of the corpses, I traced their lair."
“The environment they live in is filled with rotten, soft and bloated corpses, the excrement of various creatures, and messy moldy waste, full of bacteria and venom... It is a big pit filled with black and green liquid. ," the demon hunter showed deep fear in his eyes, "The stench is indescribable, it is simply more disgusting than a cesspool!"
"Did you jump in?" Roy found something and couldn't help but feel a hint of schadenfreude in his tone.
The demon hunter closed his eyes and said with a sigh on his face, "I gritted my teeth and jumped in, successfully killing three rotten demons. But no matter how many times I took a shower afterwards, I could never wash away the stench... …No woman wanted to talk to me for a whole year!”
"One year," Roy was horrified. "You mean, that smell lasted for a year?"
"To be exact, Oaks and Serrit can still smell it."
"Um..." The young man's face was dull, and suddenly he felt that the sticky flesh and blood on his body was no longer so pungent.
"This is by no means an isolated case. I have met at least seven or eight demon hunters," Leisuo said in a profound tone. "They are all elites of the school and have had the same experience - jumping into the lair of the rotten demon. ”
Roy had a bad feeling.
"I think a real witcher must have at least such an experience before he can grow up," the witcher's amber pupils locked on the boy, "Even if you are unlucky enough to not meet a rotten demon, you should find a real one. Shit pit, conduct a trial."
"I promise, Leisuo!" Roy yelled with panic on his face, stopping him from what he was going to say. He felt uncomfortable thinking about that possibility, "I will never waste any drinking water, please don't Tell me about the cesspit trial!"
"Yes! There are still a few evil ghosts whose hearts have not been processed yet!"
The demon hunter looked at the busy figure of the young man, curved his mouth, and nodded.
……
It was unknown whether it was day or night in the cave. The two roughly estimated the time, took turns meditating and watching, and spent the first day of the Smelk Mine.
That night, more than a week had passed. Roy took the second prodrug under the supervision of the demon hunter. The pain this time was far less than the first time he took it, and his abnormal reaction was much weaker. , gritted his teeth and pushed hard for ten minutes without falling unconscious during the whole process.
Except for a cold sweat and slight muscle soreness, there were no sequelae.
He then went into meditative rest. After waking up, the fatigue was gone, and yesterday's pain seemed like a futile nightmare.
The sticky blood and flesh all over his body, including his hands and face, dried and caked together in the cold mine.
The demon hunter moved his hands and feet a little to feel it, and most of his physical strength was restored. The wounds left by the evil ghost began to heal, and there was no serious problem in moving his body.
He started giving orders to the teenager again,
"Guweixir lent it to you first, and now I'm dragging two, no, three corpses here to chop them into pieces."
"Chop it into pieces?" Roy was a little afraid of the witcher's whims, "Lesso, you don't want to conduct any meat trials again, do you?"
"The meat is not for you to eat, but if you want to try the ghost stew, you might as well try it."
"You should keep it for yourself and enjoy it!"
With the bonus of killing skills, it is no problem to chop up a short humanoid corpse. Roy chopped several corpses into fist-sized pieces of meat from head to toe, and then rolled them into tent cloths. 4 piles.
The paralysis poison had been dried and turned from dark green to translucent jelly. The two of them applied the steel sword and the ancient Weishir sword, and then poured in the three piles of minced meat.
As for the last remaining pile.
The witcher's muscular hands put a handful into the pile of meat, and then poured the stinky flesh and blood that had been fermented for a day towards the young man.
The vigorous rain of flesh and blood chilled Roy to the core, and even his hair was not spared this time.
He was stunned.
Do you want it to be so exciting?
These broken pieces of meat and soft tissue smelled worse than the excrement in the latrine. The young man let out an angry roar from his throat, and then a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind,
"Okay, I know what you're planning! What a crazy plan!"
"But can you inform me in advance next time?"
……
A pile of minced meat was placed at the entrance of a tunnel lined up.
Then the two of them took a bag and drilled along the tunnel.
The circular tunnel is extremely simple and rough, surrounded by moist and cold clay. The environment is narrow and dark. The tall Leisuo must lower his head, tighten his body and move forward in an extremely awkward posture.
It is similar to the walking posture of evil ghosts.
As for Roy, who is less than 5.6 meters (1.7 meters) in height, he doesn’t have the trouble of being tall. He can move freely in and out of the tunnel. From time to time, he touches the surrounding walls with his palms. The surface is smooth, and he doesn’t know whether it is painted on What is it wearing? It has a strange elasticity and warmth.
I couldn’t help but whisper,
"I have an ominous feeling. We seem to be standing in the mouth of a monster, feeding deep into its esophagus. Will the plan succeed?"
"Shut your crow mouth. If you can't deceive the evil ghost, I won't be able to protect you this time!"
After walking forward for another two minutes, the two looked at each other, held their breath, and squatted down.
In front of the narrow tunnel, subtle footsteps came, and a moment later a strange evil ghost emerged from the corner.
It has pointed ears, a bald head, and a set of fine sharp teeth. Compared with ordinary evil ghosts, it has an extra red streak on its ugly cheeks.
At this moment, it was crawling like a spider, crawling forward using its hands and feet.
Such an appearance and movement reminded the boy of a creature called "Gulu".

……
It noticed the movement, raised its head and turned its turbid, pale eyes around the two of them. It sniffed the air with its dark nostrils and smelled a strange smell of the same kind. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed across its ugly face. Human doubt.
The two of them stared at each other in a stalemate for five seconds. The evil ghost warrior in the distance actually accepted their existence and turned around to leave.
Roy put away the hand crossbow, touched the fresh flesh and blood on his body, and said in deep thought, "As expected, the evil ghost warriors regard us as their own?"
"Let's talk after we get out. Now that this thing has appeared, it means we have found the right way. This is not far from its 'home', so we can lay bait."
"Yeah."
The two took out the minced meat from the bag, retreated back, and scattered it left and right along the way until they returned to the entrance of the spacious mine tunnel, where a whole bag of minced meat had already been spread out.
Roy breathed a sigh of relief.
"Will evil spirits be fooled? Can't they even taste the flesh of their compatriots?"
"We killed so many yesterday, didn't you notice that they were all so hungry that they were all skin and bones? Obviously, there is an extreme lack of food in the Smirk Mine, and the evil ghosts have not had a full meal for a long time. At this time, I would thoughtfully offer them a fragrant meal 'You think they can't bear the fresh meat?"
"Humans will kill each other when they are hungry, let alone this group of more ferocious and animalistic 'beasts'. Otherwise, the Smirk Mine would not be so clean."
"But I still don't understand," Roy nodded, "What is the principle that deceived them? Just this flesh and blood?"
"Water ghosts can't see far, and evil ghosts also have a defect in their eyesight. They can only see a rough outline of anything, and most of them rely on their sense of smell and hearing to judge the target. And we are all covered with messy, foul-smelling evil ghosts. Body fluids and flesh and blood are equivalent to a layer of natural camouflage. If you are far away, it is not surprising to be mistaken for the same kind."
Roy was impressed.
Leisuo used a simple corpse of an evil spirit in various ways: alchemy materials, camouflage colors, poisonous bait, none of it was wasted. Even if he has difficulty walking, he can still rely on his rich experience and knowledge to use his brain to deal with monsters.
I am too young in comparison.
These are things that cannot be learned in books. He lowered his head and memorized them carefully.
"I haven't recovered my strength yet. I'll leave Gu Weishir to you this time. You'll take action later. Don't let anyone go!"
The two of them were clinging to the wall near the entrance of the cave, one on the left and the other on the right. The demon hunter was holding a steel sword, and Roy was holding an ancient Weisir sword. Not long after, the expected rustling sound came from the tunnel, from far to near.
First, one or two sporadic evil ghosts were lured into the tunnel by the smell of flesh and blood~IndoMTL.com~ curiously leaned in front of the piece of meat and sniffed it, and soon they began to swallow it with big mouthfuls.
Then a rapid and continuous running sound broke out, not just one person, but a group of them!
A group of pale-skinned humanoid creatures rushed out of their home and pounced on the food in the tunnel!
"Hululu..."
The fishy smell of meat drove the evil ghosts crazy. They got down on all fours and greedily chased the scraps of meat along the way like reptiles. The smelly saliva slipped from the corners of their mouths, and their scarlet tongues greedily licked the scraps of meat, forgetting everything. Swallow and chew.
I gradually ignored the changes in my body.
Under the influence of the paralyzing poison, their bodies and senses slowly became dull, and they clumsily relied on instinct to crawl out of the dark tunnel. There was also a bag of peeled minced meat, exuding an alluring aroma.
The deformed head faced downwards and poked out of the hole. It squirmed and didn't realize the crisis at all. It turned to look at the unusually tall "similar" next to it, with a hint of trance on its ferocious face...
Leso glanced at Roy, who instantly straightened his body and his knuckles turned white.
"Good opportunity!"
He took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly focused. The Guweixir raised above his head swallowed up all his strength, and he slashed down suddenly. The sharp blade cut off the evil ghost's cervical vertebra smoothly. , amidst the vigorous blood, the huge head still maintained a blank expression, and instantly separated from the body and fell off the platform.
Gu Lu Lu rolled into the pile of corpses below.
Roy then kicked the mutilated body aside to keep the tunnel open.
A hot sweat broke out from the back of my neck, and my face turned red!
It turns out that killing a monster can be so easy!
