The Journey of the Demon Hunter

"Actually, I don't know."

The hunter’s voice is more honest, neither the hoarseness of Father Gascoigne nor the indifference of the crow hunter, but rather like an uncle who was a traveler or cargo merchant the day before. He just put on the hunter’s clothes today. With the look and posture of the weapon, Zelin can be sure that he is a good combatant, at least a hunter who knows how to use the weapon.

"Um... I was looking for the blood of the bleak, and I came here by accident. You may not believe it, the doctor drove me out first, do you know the blood of the bleak?"

"Well, let me think about it." Zelin touched his chin, and the light gray stubble began to emerge restlessly. "You are in such a huge city as Yanan, just walking around, just perfectly ignore everything. The house walked to the door of the clinic with the open door, and then walked casually, and then walked to the second-floor stairs of the clinic and saw the closed wooden door there, and then walked casually, knocking on the door without the oil lamp hanging on it. , Maybe I can just walk around and find the dim blood in your mouth, oh~ it seems I should follow you and try to find useful things, for example, a long sword as sharp as moonlight."

"Um..." The strange-looking man lowered his hat. "Well, you really don't believe me, I really don't know why I appeared in the clinic."

"It's okay. You don't believe it when you say it. In fact, I don't know why I came here at this time." Zelin curled up his mouth. "The only thing that can be described is that he woke up inexplicably and found himself lying there. On a sailing ship that is about to sink, the surrounding water ghosts are waiting for you to jump down and provide them with a perfect and sumptuous banquet. Although some trolls say that a dry fellow like me is definitely not tasty, it is really sad." The demon hunter curled his lips, and he suddenly realized that he was saying too much, "What do you say you want to find in the clinic."

The hunter previously said that he wanted to go to the second floor of the clinic, but was rejected by the female doctor, which shows that the clinic is still safe and sound. Now Zelin was standing at the only entrance of the clinic, and no one could sneak in without him noticing. There is no more work for him to do next, when Gascoigne and his daughter come here, the rest are all the duties of a female doctor. Since the situation was not so tense, Zelin became very interested in the new hunter in front of him. He is indeed a hunter, but he is so unlike a hunter, maybe he can learn a lot about Yanan from him.

"I'm going to find bleak blood, do you know?" the hunter repeated patiently.

"I don't know." Zelin shrugged, bleak blood? It sounds like something from a legend, maybe it is Yanan's local metaphor. The other party is either telling the truth or just prevarication. Since he didn't want to go into details, the demon hunter's forcible questioning was meaningless, and he could get no other result except to provoke a stranger. The hunter goes to look for the bleak blood. The demon hunter wants to ensure that the people he knows live and wait for the portal to open before they can go back. There is no conflict between them. Why bother for yourself? "I haven’t heard of any bleak blood. , But if you are looking for blood, why not try your luck in Mission Town, didn’t you come from Mission Town?"

The hunter shook his head.

"There is a lot of blood in the church town, but it has not been supplied for Yanan for a long time." Zelin recalled Yusevka's narrative and gave it to the hunter as much as possible. "If you want to find blood, you can go to the church. To the town, it’s not far from here. Going all the way to the southeast, there is a stone bridge connecting the church town. As for other roads, I’m sorry, I’ve only heard that there is a sewer that can also be reached, but I don’t know the exact location. Yes, your mask really doesn’t fit, why don’t you take it off?"

The hunter seemed to have accepted Zelin's suggestion, and he pulled on the mask, but then Zelin regretted it.

"Uh...I think you should put on the mask." Zelin rubbed his eyes. If he only looks at the appearance of a person, then the man in front of him must be a handsome man with his chin removed. Unfortunately, this is just Assuming "I mean, you can take it off when indoors, such as when there is no one else."

"Thank you for your suggestion." The hunter nodded. He seemed to move his lips tangledly. As for how he could see, the chin could be seen even if it was hidden by the mask. He seemed very upset that Zelin had an opinion about his chin. Fortunately, his hair style was rather modest and not a weird airplane head. "The doctor at the clinic told me that if you see a sane person, tell them about this place, User. Fuka Clinic will help them, you know, if you are not a hunter, she should let you in for refuge."

"I know..." Zelin sighed, but suddenly, he realized what was wrong.

Chapter 98 You Are Very Talented

The hunter also had to search for him, just like the advice given to him by the demon hunter, he decided to try his luck in Church Town. It takes only fifty steps to walk from the entrance of the clinic to the stairs on the second floor. Zelin came here without a few steps. The steps are intact, and the wooden door is intact. If you don’t count its dilapidated appearance, it is indeed intact, knock. The handle of the door is not wrong, but it is different from the description of the hunter. There is no questioning voice behind the door, but it opens directly.

Amelia's gray eyes looked straight at him.

Zelin also looked at her directly, but not her eyes, but the antlers that she shouldn't have existed. Of course, the appearance of the silver-haired bishop has not changed much, otherwise the demon hunter would not just stand in front of her and look at her, but put his hand on the hilt of the sword. Except for the antlers that are about two palms long, Amelia’s silky silver hair has become like weeds, and almost all the ends of her hair drag on the ground. Presumably she will no longer worry about the situation without clothes, because these gray hairs are completely fine. As clothes wrapped around the body, if you have to describe it, then Amelia is now the general appearance of a human but with the characteristics of an Aries monster.

Amelia raised her eyebrows, moved her eyes from Zelin's eyes to her hands, and then returned to the original position.

"Please maintain absolute peace of mind..."

"What's going on here, what's going on, I see..."

"And relative silence."

"..."

Zelin shrugged and looked at sister Yusevka who was lying at the door. Her hands and feet were still tied together. I really don’t know how she got from the third floor to the second floor, but if she was tied up, she would be sure. Nothing can be done. But what is going on with her, the demon hunter's question is obvious.

"She? She squirmed like a bug." Amelia replied blankly.

"You didn't stop her?"

"She can't do anything." The silver-haired bishop turned and walked towards the second-floor hall. Zelin noticed that her posture was a little bit wrong. Like the old soldiers whose legs were cut off in battle, he limped, but Her long hair curled her calf just to block her vision. It was obvious that Amelia didn’t want other people to see this place. Different."

"So you just let her wriggle all the way to the entrance of the stairs on the second floor, and also say strange things to the hunters who come to the clinic to knock on the door, such as hoaxes such as shelters." Zelin followed Amelia into the clinic, by the way. Yusevka, the restless sister, brought it back. The temperature of the incense in the air has faded a lot, although he remembers that before leaving, Yusevka told him that there was still a lot of incense here, enough to last until the sun rises the next day, but now it seems that something is wrong. The incense is consumed faster than expected.

"Listen, I don't want to talk about shelters, Amelia, the streets are very dangerous." Zelin said with some disapproval. Exposed, the body kept sinking but the feet could not reach the bottom. At this time, someone stretched out a hand to them, but in fact the person who stretched out the hand did not have the strength to pull them up. There was no food in the clinic, no clean water, and not enough. In fact, some people’s homes are safer than clinics."

Zelin has sheltered non-human races facing the danger of slaughter. Some of them deserve protection, and some of them are undoubtedly their actions and robbers, but sometimes... the shelter will perish with the asylum seekers.

Amelia walked to the corner of the hall without saying a word and sat down with her legs. When Zellin walked in, Yusevka smiled and blinked at him, and then proceeded to clean the blood therapy equipment. As discussed before, Zelin looked for someone and the female doctor prepared blood therapy. Although it was not clear why the preparation time was so long, there was still enough time. The only thing to worry about is that Amelia's spirit is very low. Although the hair grows to cover almost half of the bishop's face, Zelin can imagine what she should be like at this time without seeing the expression.

"Why did Amelia become like this."

This sentence was certainly not addressed to the silver-haired bishop, but to Yusevka.

"I don't know." Yusevka shook his head. "I just played cards with her, and then... I don't know how long time passed. I won another round and then noticed that there was no incense smell in the air, wow~ It was a terrible feeling, and it frightened me. I thought that the incense could burn until noon the next day, so I ran to the stove and put the rest of the incense into my mind. I was afraid that if it was too late, I would let it. The beasts noticed here."

"So when you come back..."

"When I came back, she was lying on the ground, her head covered with her hands and became like this." Yusevka sighed with lingering fear. "I thought she was infected, but she stood up and told me. She is fine, she still remembers who she is. I really didn’t expect...it’s impossible, it’s simply a miracle. She obviously didn’t receive blood therapy, and she lost so much blood. The blood given by the church is obviously very little in her body. May be able to resist..."

Ze Lin pursed his mouth and began to think about the possible connection between these things. People here say that incense can drive away beasts. Assuming that this sentence is correct, and considering the connection between parasites in the blood and animalized plague, a relatively correct conclusion may be drawn---incense can be Suppress the activity of insects. In addition, many parasites in Amelia's body died because of the potion, so she would become this way when the incense smell was weak.

Of course, if he wants to talk about natural sciences, then there will probably be a bunch of technical terms that Zelin doesn’t understand at all, such as incubation period, but he looks like those dressed in Osenfurt or Blue East University. Black robes, professors who are immersed in their own thoughts all day long? No, it's not like it at all.

So he let go of his head wisely.

"You just said that you two were playing cards? Did you take my cards?"

Zelin noticed another unusual place.

"Well, yes, sorry. Although, even though I have never figured it out, I'm really stupid." Yusevka smiled embarrassedly. "I just drew out the seven eight o’clock every time. Cards, and those cards with a sun painted...Every time I throw a card out, Amelia is very upset that she has lost again..."

"You haven't drawn a card for one point or two?"

"Are there such cards?"

Zelin took a deep breath, "Amelia has been losing since I left until the incense burned out?"

"Uh, uh, almost..."

"Yousefka, you are very talented. Would you like to learn how to play cards with me?"

"This...I'm really sorry, I know you are a good person, Zelin, but I think there will be many patients who need help when the night of hunting is over. Maybe after all this is over, I will give the doctor to Other sisters in the church, go to other places to relax, but it's not now." Yusevka's eyes flickered, but he still tactfully refused.

Zelin sighed regretfully, what a pity.

"Well, if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time."

Forgetting the time, it is estimated that there will be some time before Gascoigne and his daughter arrive, Zelin walked to another corner, kneeling on the ground with his legs together, closing his eyes and preparing to enter meditation. He felt very tired. Although he knew that the time was only midnight, his physical fatigue told him that after a long time, he had to rest, otherwise he would not know if he could swing his weapon until the next time he encountered an enemy.

The stove became more vigorous, and the smell of incense began to permeate the clinic again.

Yes, the smell of incense.

It should be the smell of incense.

But what poured into the lungs was the scent of lilies that pinched people's hearts and souls.

Chapter 99 Sorry, the negotiation broke down

An unknown fragrance of flowers permeated the air. Very sweet, a floral fragrance of lily and rose. Looking around, there are some stone paths paved with slabs around. There are many familiar but unnamed Spanish moss and big trees growing around the stone path. Looking up, you can vaguely see a small wooden church going up the stone steps.

Someone is watching him

Zelin slowly and naturally turned his head and looked around. The sweetness of the sea of ​​flowers lingers around the tip of the nose. The refreshing fragrance contrasts sharply with Yanan's disgusting rancid smell. The moon is farther and brighter in the sky, but it casts a hazy feeling, as if a piece of low-quality glass is blocking the air. Smelling the smell in the air, the neck muscles of the demon hunter tightened involuntarily, as if there was a sweet but deadly poison around them.
