Led by the tall young man, the crowd moved quickly among the rocky ruins. Along the way, they saw some huge new footprints, about the size of a bathtub. It is not difficult to imagine what kind of giants passed here.
Du Dian smelled the smell left on the footprints, and through the tracking of the smell, he smelled the source of the smell at a distance of about twenty-five miles to thirty miles, which was extremely strong and moving slowly.
The tall young man took Du Dian and others along the opposite side of the footprints, and stopped at a broken street, saying: "Take a break first, Du Dian, come and look at the map, wait a moment It's up to you to track down the corpse eaters."
Du Dian heard the words and stepped forward to check.
in vain-
The tall young man suddenly turned around, pulled out a dagger in his hand, and stabbed at Du Dian's chest and heart!
This sudden change shocked Du Dian.
There was a sharp bang!
Du Dian flew out and fell to the ground.
The tall young man was a little stunned, looking at Du Dian's chest, where the black hunting armor had been punctured, but... the inside was extremely hard, like a layer of steel!
This sudden turn of events completely stunned the three hunters, swordsmen, and thieves nearby.
"Team, Captain..." The huntress was a little confused.
Du Dian was horrified, and looked at the tall young man in disbelief. The next moment, he thought of a thought in vain, and suddenly his whole body became cold. He quickly got up from the ground, turned around and ran away!
This hunting mission is simply a cover!
In other words, the target of the hunt is not the corpse eater, but him!
Seeing Du Dian running away, the tall young man hurriedly said to the three swordsmen: "Catch him, this is the mission of the consortium, you must kill him!"
The three swordsmen looked at each other, but did not move.
The tall young man didn't care to tell them more, and quickly chased Du Dian. He thought that after a successful sneak attack, he would explain to them slowly, but at this moment the sneak attack failed. If Du Dian, a newcomer, ran away from him, then It's a big joke, and it will also anger the people above!
Whoosh!
The tall young man ran at full speed. Although he was a knight, his agility was no less than that of thieves and hunters.
Du Dian felt the figure that was getting closer and closer, and was terrified in his heart. He was fighting an intermediate hunter. He had no chance of winning at all, so he hurriedly threw out the life bag on his back. Although there was still a bomb inside, it was too late to ignite it. , is just cumbersome.
run!
Du Dian ran desperately.
Whoosh!
In vain, a sound of breaking wind rushed over.
When Du Dian heard the wind, he instinctively wanted to look back, but an alarm bell sounded in his mind in vain. He didn't care to look back, and his body took the lead in hiding to the side.
Although he hid quickly, a piercing pain still came from his back, as if a truck hit him from behind, his body fell forward involuntarily, rolling several times on the ground continuously.
At this time, Du Dian saw the tall young man quickly approaching, and also saw the tip of the gun penetrating from the back to the front abdomen.
"Uh ah..." Du Dian's eyes were red, enduring the severe pain, he held the spear with his backhand and pulled it out from his back, and blood gushed out and splashed on the ground.
"Huh!" The tall young man snorted coldly, rushed to Du Dian quickly, and kicked him out.
Du Dian rolled sideways suddenly, grabbed a handful of mud with his backhand, and threw it at the tall young man's face.
The tall young man hurriedly raised his hand to resist, but stepped on the ground. When he looked around again, Du Dian had already got up and continued to run forward.
"Damn boy!" The tall young man gritted his teeth, grabbed the spear that Du Dian threw on the ground, aimed at Du Dian who was running, and threw it away.
Du Dian clutched the wound in his abdomen and endured the severe pain. Although he was running, his mind kept on keeping an eye on the back. When he saw the other party picked up the spear, he immediately knew that he was going to throw the gun again. He immediately endured the fear and continued to run along a straight line Go, and in a sudden moment, roll sideways and dodge.
With a whoosh, the moment he dodged, the spear whistled past him and shot into the distance.
Du Dian's beating heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then gritted his teeth and ran towards the street next to him.
The tall young man froze for a moment, as if he didn't expect Du Dian to dodge suddenly. He saw him running in a straight line foolishly, and thought that the shot would surely hit him. Unexpectedly, the other party's actions deliberately led him to misjudge!
"Damn it!!" The tall young man reacted, and suddenly became angry. He stopped picking up the spear and quickly chased Du Dian around the corner.
Du Dian only felt severe pain in his abdomen. During the running process, something seemed to leak out of his body, which made him feel terrified in his heart, so he could only hold his abdomen tighter.
"What to do, what to do!" Du Dian was a little flustered. He knew that it would be a matter of time before he was overtaken. It's too close, it's impossible to get rid of him!
Whoosh!
The tall young man chased after him quickly. He looked at Du Dian who was running away with one hand covering his side and the other moving the air. He was also a little frightened in his heart. Such a speed is definitely not something a newcomer possesses. Compared with many junior hunters Veterans are faster, not much inferior to him.
The two were running on the mossy, stagnant, and muddy streets, and the distance was getting closer and closer. Soon, Du Dian smelled each other's scent, and the position three or four meters behind him was already within reach!
Is this the end...
A trace of despair flashed in Du Dian's heart. In vain, he saw a puddle next to the road ahead. This is a sunken street. The accumulated rain filled it, with fallen leaves and black rot floating on it, and the accumulated water was turbid.
Du Dian gritted his teeth and jumped.
With a plop, he fell into the puddle.
The tall young man stretched out his hand to grab the air, was slightly taken aback, and stopped quickly, looking at the puddle with an area of only seven or eight square meters, his eyes darkened, "I wanted to leave you as a whole body, but you are looking for death yourself, it's too cheap in this sewer monster."
He looked at the surface of the water and waited. Ten seconds later, a lot of blood floated up on the turbid water.
…
Du Dian plunged into the puddle. The first feeling was cold. The puddle was deep. He swam quickly and burrowed into the puddle, fearing that the tall young man would also jump down.
After swimming for a while, Du Dian suddenly saw a black shadow swimming towards him quietly and quickly, hardly causing too much water fluctuation during the swimming.
Underwater monsters! Du Dian's pupils shrank, and he suddenly remembered that this is a sewer, which is now filled with stagnant water, and there must be many monsters living in the sewer for a long time.
Thinking of this, he felt chills in his heart.
At this time, the black shadow was about four or five meters away from him, swimming towards him like a hungry tiger.
Du Dian tried to open his eyes. In the turbid water, he felt pain in his eyes, but he still didn't dare to close them. He saw the black shadow clearly. It was a crocodile-like monster with scales all over his body and a long front mouth. There are six claws under the abdomen, which are extremely sharp, and it is estimated that they can tear people into pieces in an instant when they are caught on the human body.
Du Dian kicked on the water with both feet, trying to escape in horror, but the opponent's underwater acceleration was too fast, and he approached with a forward rush, biting Du Dian's left leg fiercely with a big mouth full of fangs.
A sharp pain came from his left leg, and Du Dian shook it in pain, but the other party was biting tightly. He suddenly thought of the dagger beside his leg, took it out hastily, and bent down like crazy to stab it in the head.
The dagger stabbed one after another, and the monster's tail swung violently in pain, and the surrounding water was turbulent.
Du Dian stabbed wildly, and a lot of blood floated from the monster's head. It didn't take long before the opponent's tight bite gradually loosened. Du Dian hurriedly opened its upper and lower jaws, pulled out its legs, and felt a burst of suffocation in the chest cavity. Feeling, knowing that the time to hold his breath is approaching, he hastily looked to the left and right.
Soon, Du Dian found a hole in the wall and swam over in a hurry.
This hole is a drain leading to the sewer. Du Dian pulled a few rotten steel bars across the hole. The steel bars were broken with a slight pull, and Du Dian immediately drilled into it.
The hole was facing upwards. Du Dian looked inside for a while, and finally surfaced. He couldn't help panting, and at the same time, he saw the surrounding environment clearly, which turned out to be a moss-covered toilet.
…
…
The tall young man watched the water in the puddle rush rapidly, and a large amount of blood floated out as it continued to flow, dyeing the muddy water light red.
At this time, the huntress and the others chased after him, looked at the faded blood in the puddle, looked at the tall young man in surprise, and said, "Team, captain, why is this?"
The tall young man turned his head to look at them, and said indifferently: "This is a task from above, and it was issued by the Bron family. Each of you will get a hush money of 1,000 gold coins. It is best not to reveal what happened today, otherwise I will I can't keep you either."
The three huntresses looked at each other.
…
…
Du Dian didn't dare to break the toilet. It was less than 20 meters away from the tall young man, and it was easy to alarm him. He vaguely remembered that there were several dilapidated and collapsed buildings nearby, and he should have come to one of the buildings along the sewer.
He panted lightly, not daring to make his breath too loud, his body was still soaked in the water, his palms tightly covering his flanks. After soaking in the water, he felt more and more pain from the wound on his back, and it seemed that blood was constantly flowing from it.
After a while, Du Dian smelled the scent of the huntress and others approaching, and immediately held his breath, sank his head underwater again, not daring to make the slightest movement, for fear that some of them would have the magic mark ability of the perception class, and his position turn up.
When he couldn't hold his breath again, Du Dian carefully floated his head out of the water, controlled the chest cavity to slowly draw in a trace of air, and slowly alternated the air in the lung lobes. At the same time, he smelled their scent and felt that they were still in front of the puddle. , I couldn’t help feeling a little nervous, feeling that it was still too dangerous to be here, so I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth and sank into the water, and continued to swim along the hole I climbed up earlier, praying secretly in my heart that I would not encounter any underwater monsters again.
Swimming against the wall of the sewer, although the light inside was dim, fortunately his vision was not affected by the darkness. After swimming more than ten meters, he saw a huge group of monsters like aquatic plants still in the water from a distance, with aquatic plants floating all over his body. like touch.
The other party also seemed to smell the bloody smell emanating from his body, and immediately swam over slowly.
Du Dian hurriedly stopped in fright, looked left and right, saw a hole similar to the previous one again, and immediately drilled into it.
After entering this channel, Du Dian quickly swam up, and there was still a toilet on the surface of the water, but the toilet had been smashed long ago, and the surrounding was flat. Du Dian saw a rotten black skeleton not far away, The ground is full of rotten dust and some unknown monster feces.
At this time, Du Dian smelled the tall young man and others in front of the puddle, turned around and returned along the original road, as if he was concerned about the underwater monsters, and gave up jumping in to search. After all, Du Dian was seriously injured, and there was blood on his body , the hope of surviving underwater is close to zero.
Moreover, although these hunters often go outside the wall to hunt monsters, they don't know much about the structure beneath the ruined city.
Du Di quietly felt them walking away, and his tense heart relaxed. At this moment, he suddenly felt a pain in his foot, followed by countless cold, soft and slippery things entangled up, and along his legs all the way Climb and wrap around your upper body.
Du Dian suddenly thought of the water grass-like underwater monster, and hurriedly crawled out of the toilet in fright.
Although the area under the toilet is small, the surrounding ground has been soaked in water, and the concrete has long since rotted. Du Dian pushed hard and broke a hole.
He crawled out and looked back, only to see that the tentacles on this waterweed-like monster were like green snakes, with sharp mouths opening at the top, gnawing on his body. It was not bitten too badly because he had to block it with his battle armor.
Du Dian only felt his scalp numb, and he stabbed wildly with the dagger.
The monster was in pain, and the green snake-like tentacles on its body bit Du Dian's face.
Du Dian hurriedly waved the dagger and cut it off.
The monster screamed in pain, the tentacles wrapped around Dudian's body suddenly retracted, the body slid and climbed into the puddle at the toilet, and the blood at the break floated on the water.
Du Dian saw that it was scared away, and he was relieved in his heart. He didn't dare to stay here any longer, and climbed out of the collapsed building carefully.
"The wound must be treated as soon as possible." Du Dian felt the severe pain in his thigh and back, his face was ugly, but he didn't dare to stay here for a long time, lest the other party suddenly turn back.
He took off the hunter armor on his body and threw it in the stagnant water on the side of the road, then took out the soaked gauze from the first aid kit to wrap the wound, and found some vine green leaves, crushed them and pasted them, allowing the plant juice to mix with blood. Odor, inhibits diffusion.
Then wash off the blood on the hunter armor, smear it with mud, and wear it on your body. The rotten mud smell wafts from your body.
"You must leave here as soon as possible. Once you are targeted by some large monster, you will die." Du Dian was extremely nervous. The lurking method of covering up the smell is only relatively safe, but in front of some super hunter monsters. Pretense is pale.
In a blink of an eye, two days passed.
At the border of District No. 2, Du Dian appeared here. From the surrounding buildings, one can vaguely see the flags of the Mellon Consortium and the badge patterns of fuel sprayed on the ground, symbolizing that this is the domain of the Mellon Consortium.
"The front is District 6, from District 6 you can go to District 9."
Du Dian passed by a flag, clutching his abdomen, and limped into Area 6. In the past two days, he hardly dared to clean up the wounds on his body. The hemostatic medicine in some bottles and jars has some effect, but the wound is too infected by the disaster water and has rotted, so it must be cut off and bandaged.
And cutting off the festering tissue also means that there will be a bloody smell.
In a dangerous area like District 2, Du Dian could only endure the rotten wounds, and only hoped to return to the cleaned District 9 as soon as possible, which was the closest safe area to him.
"Unexpectedly, his purpose was to kill me, not to test me..."
Du Dian was on his way, but his heart was full of pain and sorrow. He thought that this father-in-law, who had never been masked, was really merciful, and he didn't dislike his civilian status as Jenny said. Unexpectedly, he was too naive. , also overestimated their own value.
In the eyes of the other party, he may be a humble little bug, how could he allow such a bug to drag his daughter down
"Jenny probably didn't know about this..." Du Dian recalled Jenny's happy appearance before leaving. Judging from her every move, it was obvious that she was also kept in the dark, which made him feel much better.
"Before returning to the wall, you must improve your strength as soon as possible, otherwise you will be secretly assassinated by the assassins he sent from the consortium, and even the court will not be able to help you. At most, the consortium will lose one assassin." Du Dian thought Secretly said: "As long as he is careful about his schemes, even if he is a nobleman on the bright side, he has no right to kill me. After all, there are many nobles who have been executed in the history of the court. He dare not take such a risk!"
"At that time, I will raise the position of priest and take Jenny away." Du Dian secretly made up his mind.
Thinking of this, Du Dian immediately wanted to increase his strength urgently. The first thing he thought of was the cold crystals collected in Area 9. The only way to quickly increase his strength was to absorb the cold crystals!
