Same scent, same taste.
Kaxiu was 100% sure that this man named Yun had an obsession antique. Just now, the two of them were fighting fiercely, and he focused on the battle and did not notice the bitter taste.
Now that things are quiet, the bitterness becomes more pronounced.
Kaxiu glanced at Yun obscurely, focusing mainly on the pockets on his coat. Finally, he fixed his gaze on Yun's neck. There was a jade carving strung together by a red string, which was green in color but seemed to be faintly shining.
Across from him, Yun noticed Kaxiu's gaze. He picked up the pendant on his neck. It was an oval jadeite. There was basically no carving on it, only a vortex-like cloud pattern in the center. It was about a quarter of the size of a palm, with a warm color and a faint green light emitting from the inside.
"I feel I need to explain. I was hiding in the dark just now not intending to launch a sneak attack or anything. It was because the Emerald of Doom I was wearing reacted half a minute ago, so I followed you all the way out of curiosity." Yun said slowly and seriously.
"Emerald of Doom?" Kaxiu asked tentatively.
"Oh, I've just introduced myself. I'm an explorer. I found this jadeite in the ruins of the legendary ancient kingdom of Aruk, Lane County, in the north of the Red Lebanese Federation. It is a gem with magical powers that can detect bad luck near the wearer." Yun looked at Kaxiu as he spoke.
There was no change in the other person's expression, but this was normal. After the fight just now, Yun knew that Kaxiu must not be an ordinary person and must have some extraordinary power.
"Is this the bad luck you mentioned?"
Kaxiu took a step to the side, the fierce aura on his body gradually faded, and the two of them quickly walked out of the alley.
On the ground, the Red Eye Demon Shadow was trying to get up, but a big foot suddenly stepped on its back.
With a thud, he was pressed to the ground by a huge force.
"Oh? A new kind of evil spirit that I've never seen before." Yun's slightly surprised voice came from the side. It was obvious that this man who called himself an explorer had seen something similar somewhere before.
"If it's an evil spirit, then it's no wonder. The Doom Emerald is very sensitive to the breath of these things." He muttered to himself.
"Evil spirits? Is that what you call them?" Kaxiu turned around and said, "I call these things dark creatures..."
"If I'm not mistaken, dark creatures and evil spirits should be the same thing." Yun told Kaxiu what he knew and expressed his goodwill to him: "I accidentally joined the treasure hunter industry more than ten years ago. This is a group of people who are keen on discovering legendary ancient ruins and ancient treasures all over the world. They are explorers among explorers. Treasure hunters roam in remote wilderness, dangerous jungles, mysterious seas, and thirsty deserts. They always encounter some strange phenomena that are difficult to explain, and even strange creatures that have never been discovered..."
"The most dangerous kind are what we call evil spirits..."
"Things that are actively aggressive and possess extraordinary powers beyond humans are generally classified as evil spirits." Yun's eyes seemed to be recalling the past: "For example, five years ago, I encountered a group of extremely ugly black goblins in the dense forests in the south of the Principality of Amadon. They would actively hunt for human or animal heads and build their nests with human heads. The brain is the food of these black goblins and their goblin cubs..."
"Black elf!"
Kaxiu immediately reacted after hearing the description. He remembered that when he first took on an extra mission at Black Rain Villa in the past, one of the missions was to capture the black elves.
This elf is the same thing as the fairy that Yun mentioned.
"Can I take a closer look at this thing?" After Kaxiu digested the information, Yun pointed at the magic shadow with some curiosity.
"Of course." Kaxiu had other ideas in mind. He slowly reminded: "But be careful. Forget it, no need..."
Click, click, click, click, four times in a row.
A very crisp bone fracture.
The demon's eyes widened red.
The limbs were removed at once, and the originally strong and sharp claws fell down, as if they had lost all their strength in an instant.
Kaxiu didn't care about that. Although the recovery ability of the Phantom was not as good as that of the Blood Clan, it was also very strong. Such injuries like broken hands and feet were nothing but a drizzle for them.
In fact, dark creatures have a unique mechanism, just like human adrenaline. When they are hurt, the pain is greatly reduced. In simple terms, they rarely feel pain.
"ah!!!"
The demonic figure on the ground, who had almost become a human stick, sang loudly.
The whole person was like a carp doing somersaults, the hot sweat that kept pouring out soaked his clothes, his facial features were distorted, and he was breathing heavily.
"Um... Mr.... Mr. Kashu. Did you use too much force? This evil spirit seems to be about to faint."
Yun pursed his lips and reminded after hesitating for a moment.
"Mr. Yun, you must not have mercy on these dark creatures. They are very cunning! I know them well. These creatures have a bloodthirsty effect that blocks pain. Not to mention removing its limbs, even if I cut off all five of its limbs, it will not feel any pain. Now it is just acting to gain sympathy."
Kaxiu responded confidently, saying that he had been a night-time resident in Black Rain Villa for several years and had already grasped some of the same characteristics and patterns of dark creatures. He was definitely not wrong.
"But...but, it seems to have started rolling its eyes..."
Yun pointed with his finger in good faith.
"Ah?" Kaxiu frowned and raised his right hand.
The Red Eyes demon was being held by the scruff of his neck like a dead dog, his eyes rolled up, drooling from the corners of his mouth, like an idiot. His body couldn't stop shaking, and he looked extremely painful.
"Gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
The demon shadow with a deathly look on his face was foaming at the mouth, and he suddenly shuddered and fainted, as if he was in a last hurricane of urinating.
"..." Kaxiu was silent for a while: "That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that the quality of dark creatures nowadays is much worse than before?"
"Don't pretend! Get up!"
Bang! A big blow hit the demon's face directly.
There was a red slap mark on the brown-haired man's cheek, but he was still unconscious. He shook his head twice to stop moving.
"I seem to be really dizzy... cough cough, but it's not a big problem."
Kaxiu coughed twice to hide his embarrassment: "Mr. Yun, why don't we go to your house to research it first. Although this area is relatively remote, it is a residential area after all. I'm afraid someone will come over because of the loud noise just now." He glanced at the half-collapsed wall.
"Well... I'm afraid it's a bit inconvenient, as there are elderly people and children sleeping at home. How about I go to your place..." Yun responded.
When Kaxiu heard this, he suddenly remembered something. He had been to an old man's antique shop before. There were two people in the antique shop. The owner, the old man, and a little girl. There was also an uncle Yun who was doing business everywhere, but he was away all year round.
So that Uncle Yun... is the Yun in front of us
Most likely.
Yun also said that he was not from the Red Li Federation, but it just so happened that the whole family in his father's antique shop were from the Star Blue Empire of Star Blue Rock Continent.
There are many strange and varied antiques in the old man's antique shop. There are busts, broken iron swords, ceramic pots, old books, music boxes and so on. I'm afraid they are all things that Mr. Yun brought back from various strange relics around the world. Including the cross star coin...
As a result, Kaxiu became even more interested in Yun.
Or maybe he is more interested in the ruins that Yun has visited and the antiques he has obtained. Maybe he is obsessed with antiques...
Kaxiu's expression did not change, he just nodded and agreed. It can be seen that Yun is also interested in the Red Eye Demon Shadow in his hand, which is a good thing.
Immediately, the two who were entangled in fighting no longer had the tense atmosphere before. At this moment, they walked along the alley towards Kaxiu's house, one on the left and one on the right, and kept chatting.
Kaxiu was standing on the left, so he deliberately threw the magic shadow over his left shoulder so as not to disturb the conversation between himself and Yun.
The two chatted a lot along the way.
Kaxiu also revealed some of his information, saying that he was the only descendant of a secret martial arts school and had come into contact with dark creatures. Yun also revealed the source of his martial arts, saying that he did not have a master or a school.
As a treasure hunter wandering around the world, Yun has had many fantastic experiences and even got into a lot of weird troubles. Some of them have been solved, and some are still being solved.
Part of his secret skills were obtained from some mysterious relics, and part of them came from strange hermits. For example, in the Yana United States of North Reef Island, Yun met a strange wizard in a village next to the Ten Thousand Mountains in the east. The wizard asked Yun to help him find something in the mountains, and the reward was a strange totem.
This totem can grant Yun superhuman powers.
In addition, there is Yun's hometown in the west of the Xinglan Empire, a desert Gobi that has been sparsely populated for thousands of years. Yun, who came here to explore, found two strange buildings on the hillside of a cliff, with two old enemies in them. They competed every day, with different martial arts, but no one could beat the other.
Yun was also used as a prop for the competition. One taught him the Sharp Wind Power and the other taught him the Rock Motion Power. In the end, Yun learned the Sharp Wind Power first, and the other old man lost. When he lost, he jumped off the cliff on the spot, while the old man who used the Sharp Wind Power laughed and said that he won, and then died of joy.
There were many such experiences. Yun only chose to tell Kaxiu some of them, because he could feel that this man wanted to make friends with him, and his emotions were very sincere.
Yun was also very interested in Kashu's mysterious background.
Until he returned to the single-family house, Kaxiu felt that the man beside him was not simple. His experience was even more exciting than his own, who had the ability to rewind. However, Yun did not have any cheats, and it was a miracle that he could survive many near-death experiences. The dangers he had experienced were no less than Kaxiu's.
In the dim alley, on the left is the white wall of a house.
Kaxiu glanced at the cloud next to him and threw the magic shadow over: "I'm so sorry, I didn't bring the key."
There was a sound of something heavy falling to the ground from the other side of the wall.
cloud:…
This way of entering is somehow a bit like a thief.
Click. Click.
The two men landed dejectedly and stood in the spacious courtyard.
Yun's expression suddenly changed, and he raised the green jadeite around his neck. The green light inside flashed faster and faster.
"More smells of doom?"
Kaxiu's eyes flashed and he suddenly clapped his hands.
"Come out, guys."
Immediately, two figures came out of the window next to them. They were Magician Bess and Catwoman Haisha. They had changed into normal clothes and walked towards this side step by step.
"Yun, is that the doom you feel from them?"
Kaxiu glanced at the black-haired man next to him.
The jadeite in his palm was gradually flashing, and the frequency was obviously faster than before. Yun nodded in confusion: "It should be these two... evil spirits?"
"Hahaha... yes and no."
Kaxiu laughed at this moment, as if confirming a guess that he had in his mind for a long time: "They are not the so-called evil spirits, but new humans who have stolen the power of evil spirits."
Dark creatures and Hellraiser have the same origin!
Originally in Black Rain Villa, Kaxiu had already had some doubts about this, such as the dark flow that was grafted onto the organs of dark creatures.
But others, such as the special mercury of the mercury flow and the beast blood of the half-beast flow, do not look like the products of dark creatures.
Now another idea came to Kaxiu's mind. The raw materials for making special mercury and beast blood came from dark creatures.
The Nightmare is essentially an imitator of a dark creature, a guinea pig used as an experiment in the Black Rain Villa, where people were restrained and enslaved.
After the disappearance of Black Rain Villa, these mice did not die together like previous generations due to special reasons. Instead, they survived and began to reproduce.
Thus, what we now call new humans came into being.
These new humans also have the aura and characteristics of dark creatures, which is why they were detected and warned by the Emerald of Doom.
Ten minutes later, in the basement of a single-family home.
The lights were bright, and the five people gathered here. In the center, the Red Eye Demon Shadow, whose limbs had been removed, lay on the ground with a deathly pale face, surrounded by everyone, observing and sizing him up.
“Ouch!”
The demon shadow that was originally lying flat suddenly struggled violently.
Kaxiu and the other four turned their heads and looked at the catwoman Haisha at the crotch. She felt everyone's gaze and raised her right hand that was digging at her crotch, with an embarrassed expression on her charming face.
"I just want to see if the body structure of this dark creature is the same as that of an ordinary human. Don't get me wrong... I'm just curious..."
"Ahem." Kaxiu coughed twice and brought the topic back to the previous one: "Mr. Yun, I have told you everything I should tell you, and I have touched everything I should touch. Can you... ahem..."
"Take it and return it to me later." Yun threw the Doom Emerald around his neck directly to Kaxiu. He squatted down again with a solemn expression and began to study the mutated claws of the Demon Shadow.
Pop.
Kaxiu reached out and pinched the warm jade.
Suddenly, the warm feeling turned into a cold feeling. A trace of cold air began to penetrate into the skin of the palm from all angles.
