Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 123: Bloody Hands (for collection)

Views:

A pair of hands plunged into the icy cold stream, the flowing water washed away the blood on the hands, and then melted into a dark red blush. Leon didn't stand up on the edge of the rocky beach until his hands were washed clean. He casually picked up the beheading ax and "cut it ruthlessly", the surface of the ax was covered with a large amount of blood, and even some flesh. Leon threw the ax to a guard casually, and someone helped him clean the battle axe.

On the rocky beach, three multi-horned lions lie on the ground. Their heads were all cut off by the beheading axe, and they rolled far away. Between the body and the head, a clear bloodstain was the connection between the two. Multi-horned lions live in packs, usually in groups of two or three. These three dangerous species were targeted by Leon during hunting, but instead became trophies in his name.

At the beginning of the fall hunt, Allen was in the lead for a time. But when the rich men like Leon entered the forest hunting area, they quickly overtook them. After all, they have the convenience of guards. Even if the guards only serve as auxiliary tasks for protecting and searching for prey, it is much more convenient than Allen who acts alone.

It was already afternoon, and the leaderboard of Autumn Hunting was updated ten minutes ago. William's Paul still maintains the leading momentum, followed by Leon. Allen, who was still in third place in the morning, has dropped to seventh place. Among them, apart from the fact that the children of the aristocratic family have the convenience of guarding, the most important thing is that Alan's collector made him lose it casually.

So far, even if he kills 10,000 dangerous species, his ranking will only gradually be squeezed out.

Leon sat on a clean rock with his legs crossed, waiting for the guards to collect information on the triangular lion and decompose the corpse. The fourth-level dangerous species of the triangular lion has already begun to form source jade in the heart/heart of the body. Yuanyu is a kind of energy crystal, which is used by dangerous species to drive ability, and its function is similar to the engraving of human beings.

It's just a fourth-order multi-horned lion, and the resulting jade is only the size of a fingernail. After recovery/recovery, purification, and processing/processing, the source jade can be made/made into raw materials for those energy-conducting textures of magic weapons. Of course, the energy-conducting patterns made/made of Yuanyu will only be used on high-end weapons. As for the low-grade magic weapon, it is made of artificially synthesized materials that can withstand the user's source power output without being damaged.

If it is the "Original Jade" extracted from the dangerous species above the tenth rank, it will have some special abilities. For example, the Eye of Shadow, one of the prizes of this autumn hunt, is to increase the affinity of the source force that is compatible with it, so as to achieve the purpose of accelerating the speed of source force cohesion.

In addition to Yuanyu, the bodies of high-level dangerous species also have their own magical functions. Like these three multi-horned lions, after the curved horns of their heads are crushed, they can be used as raw materials for magic armor. Even, hormones used as medicine can be extracted from their sexual organs, which can enhance male masculinity, and they are also very popular in Babylon.

Under the skillful techniques of several guards, all the valuable things from these multi-horned lions were extracted, so a guard stepped forward and said: "You can go, Third Young Master."

Leon nodded, took the beheading ax cleaned by the guards, and jumped off the stone. Putting the tomahawk on his shoulder casually, Leon walked along the stream, and suddenly frowned: "Is there any news about Alan?"

"No, but I heard not long ago that Master Diego of the Grant family just transferred Langdon, the captain of the family's guard," the guard replied.

"tune

Move the captain of the guard? Leon shook his head: "Why is this Diego crazy? Is he planning to use the captain of the guard to deal with Allen?" If this is the case, Allen should be proud. Hey, the captain level is a level 20 awakener... "

The guard nodded in agreement. Leon looked into the depths of the forest: "I hope that kid Allen won't run into Diego recklessly. No matter how powerful he is, he can't deal with a level 20 master. But that guy's personality is really worrying." .”

When Leon was worried for Allen, the latter returned to the place where he hid the supply backpack. The fir trees here are tall and tall, and when the wind blows, golden leaves will be shaken from the crown of the trees and fall to the ground, becoming a member of the forest carpet. At this moment, the afternoon sun is just right, the light is bright, and the fallen leaves on the ground are even more illuminated, glowing with a golden light.

Allen's backpack was in a dead fir tree hole three meters away, and he walked straight towards the tree hole with a straight/knife. After taking three steps, he stopped abruptly, and Allen looked around vigilantly. The surrounding environment was obviously normal, but there was an uncomfortable feeling in his heart. It was an intuition of perceiving danger. During the period of living with wolves, Allen relied on this intuition to avoid hunting from powerful and dangerous species many times.

Now, he understands better that this intuition stems from the connection between all things.

Everything in the world seems to be an independent individual, but in fact it is related to each other. It is like the wind blowing the leaves and falling, if there is no wind blowing, how can the leaves fall to the ground? Therefore, the intuition of danger comes from subtle changes in the environment, which is reflected in the five senses, forming a spiritual touch beyond the senses.

At this moment, a violent wolf got out of the grass on the left side of Allen. But he didn't know what was going on, and suddenly ran away with his tail between his legs. In an instant, Allen didn't hesitate anymore. He turned around and flew over, and in a blink of an eye, he rushed a few meters away, landed on a grassy slope, and the figure disappeared. Almost at the same time as Allen was moving, the tree hole where the backpack was located suddenly exploded with force, smashing the edge of the tree hole so that the bark flew, and a figure flew past the ground, only a line slower than Allen, and swept across the grass slope .

He landed on the ground and was about to rush forward, but suddenly stopped.

A seemingly absent chill crawled up his back like a little snake. He chuckled, and straightened his body up little by little with extreme slowness, for fear of causing any unnecessary misunderstanding. Alan Zhi/The knife has been unsheathed, and the blade is pointed at the man in front of him. The tip of the knife trembled slightly, and every time it trembled, the chill on the man's back would change subtly, making people wonder where Alan would land when he really attacked with the knife.

"Who are you? Did Diego send you?" Allen said in a deep voice, his speaking speed was unhurried and his tone was steady, without any emotional fluctuations at all.

If this person wants to guess his mood from his voice, it will be a waste of time.

But the man asked irrelevantly: "Is it because I'm old, or is it that the young people are so powerful now? I think I'm very good at hiding, and I don't let my murderous intentions out, and the surrounding environment hasn't been damaged at all. But you still notice it. , this is the first time I have encountered it in my bloody career."

"So you are a bloody hand?" Allen was slightly surprised. When he went to the surface to hunt the black widow more than a year ago, he heard Lieutenant Ron mention this killer. At that time, Forlan Town, which was fighting with the Black Widow, was behind the figure Bloody Hand. I never thought that I would bump into it today

.

After Allen finished speaking, it was the bloody hand's turn to be surprised: "Have you heard of me?"

"So what? Who asked you to kill me?"

The bloody hand suddenly smiled sinisterly: "So you don't know who is going to kill you, you are such a poor brat. It doesn't matter if I tell you, anyway, you are going to die today, so that you can understand. Listen up boy, Those who want to kill you are the people of Bethkind!"

"What?"

The moment he heard Alan's exclamation behind him, the bloody hand knew that the opportunity he was waiting for had come. Allen was agitated by this answer, which was the best opportunity to fight back. With a sharp laugh, he turned and pounced. Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, he saw that Alan had already slashed at him with his sword. The straight/knife has a fierce momentum, and the blade brings out several sources of force. After the long knife, Alan's eyes were calm, not half distracted by what he said.

The bloody hand is waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, and Allen is also looking for an opportunity to make a move!

Seeing Alan's eyes, the bloody hand knew he had been fooled. With his senior qualifications as a killer, Alan had the upper hand twice in a row, and his words were enough to be laughed to death. At the moment, the bloody hand felt depressed and unbearable, he snorted even more, and the palm was like a knife, and the source force surged up and slashed with the knife. First cut Alan's blades of origin power, and then knocked on the blade of the straight/knife.

Ai Lun's tiger's mouth shook violently, and he almost couldn't hold the straight/knife steadily, so he gave Xueshou a hand knife and slashed away. Allen retreated without chaos, and the blade cut out pieces of moon discs, blocking the approaching route of the bloody hand, allowing the two to return to the confrontation.

Only then did Allen see what the bloody hand looked like.

Xueshou is a middle-aged man with a moderate build and a sallow complexion. A pair of triangular eyes with blue under-eye bags, seems to be someone who has drunk too much. His gray and gray hair seemed to rest on his head like a clump of withered hay. A huge scar on the left started from the center of the brow, crossed the eye socket, and ended on the left cheek, almost wanting to cut off half of his head. This scar had gouged out a large piece of his flesh, and took away one of his eyes.

A prosthetic eye was installed in the bloody hand's left eye, purely for decoration.

The stab wound on the left cheek not only took away his left eye, but also knocked out his left facial nerve. When the bloody hand laughed, the smile was very weird, even a little scary. Just like now, although he was smiling, the muscles on the left side of his face did not respond at all. The bloody hand said: "It's a pity, if you are at the same level as me. No, as long as you are five or six levels higher, the knife just now will have a completely different ending."

How could Allen not know that he has the upper hand no matter in terms of strategy, mind or timing of shots. However, the source power gap between him and Xueshou was as high as 7 levels, but Xueshou forced him back with a single blow, and almost even bounced the straight/knife.

Everything is always relative, rank is not everything. But if the level difference drags too far, that power can destroy everything. Just like how clever an ant is, it can be crushed by an elephant stepping on it. Even though the gap between Alan and Bloody Hand has not been as big as an ant is to an elephant, it is an indisputable fact that Alan is not as deep as Bloody Hand in terms of source power!

As the bloody hand said, if the gap between Allen and him is not that big. Then with the knife just now, maybe Allen would cut off his palm instead of being repelled by him with his strong source power.
