In Heather Anna's reluctant farewell (mainly for Vivian), the group left the shelter. The real Athens outside is still sunny, prosperous and peaceful. No one would have imagined that a thrilling battle would have taken place in the shadow of this seemingly peaceful city. The demon hunters have not completely evacuated the city. After the ancients desperately expelled them from the sanctuary, some demon hunters have established some new strongholds in the city. These strongholds will last for more than a hundred years to monitor and suppress The development of the shadow shelter. However, it is impossible for the demon hunters to fight in again for the time being—the shadow interlayer has been restarted, and the casualties of the demon hunters in this operation are also not small, and it is impossible for them to pull up a team of fighters like they did in the age of mythology. With armies of churches and exorcists coming to wipe out an area, plus they have to monitor other parts of the world for heterogeneous activity, large-scale operations like today's are not so easy to organize.
Just like Hesianna said, everything will continue as usual, only a new batch of dead souls will be added.
For fear of being discovered by the demon hunters in the city of Athens, the group did not stop longer, but directly went through the formalities and boarded the flight back, but this time there was an extra person in the team: Hesperis walked with everyone.
"Are you sure you have a way to dispel the demon hunter's power?" Hesperis was still a little skeptical of Hao Ren's promise. She left Athens with the group of people because of Vivienne's guarantee. Thinking of the hole in her head that has been tossing for thousands of years, she felt that this matter was not reliable.
Hao Ren looked at the gorgeous sash on Hesperis' head and smiled confidently: "Don't worry, we have professional equipment here."
It was not Hao Ren's whim to propose to help Hesperis heal his injuries. In fact, he wanted to take this opportunity to study something.
Hao Ren has always been interested in the power of demon hunters. He heard some things about the training of demon hunters from Nangong Wuyue and Nangong Sanba, and found many doubts: the training of demon hunters is more Most of it is to cultivate their mind and knowledge about "monsters". And more than half of their various skills and magic are not acquired through training. These powers come from innate talent, and a newborn demon hunter possesses these things from birth. Whether it's exorcism power or space teleportation, even those complicated spells. According to common sense, these things that should be mastered through acquired learning are actually the result of heredity. It is for this reason that demon hunters are a group that values "talent", a freshman hunter with excellent blood and strong talent. Demons will receive extremely special care, because as long as they grow up healthy, their strength can far exceed those of mediocre hardworking people-this sounds unfair, but it is their family that has not changed for tens of thousands of years. specialty.
This fact made Hao Ren have great doubts about the race of demon hunters, and he wanted to study this aspect. It just so happened that Hesperis had a thousand-year-old brain hole in his head. This was a sample of power left by an early demon hunter with pure blood and excellent talent. There was nothing more suitable for research than this.
Of course, Hao Ren also took many other research samples from the Shadow Sanctuary: some demon hunter blood, hair and tissue samples, weapons, and body strengthening potions commonly used by demon hunters. Taken out of the portable space, these things can occupy at least two bookshelves. Before leaving, Heatherana murmured, saying that Hao Ren had finally done something related to human wizards—began to be interested in corpses...
Hao Ren didn't think this was something to be happy about. He felt terrified when he walked with so many hair-raising things stuffed in his portable space, and Doudou's protest was also serious: the little guy was also in the portable space She was staying in the house, and there was a pile of debris next to her fish tank. The little guy felt that his sea view room was seriously threatened, so that Hao Ren had to post a picture of SpongeBob SquarePants around Doudou's fish tank...
Needless to say, the journey in the middle is basically spent in Lili’s balabala. The last group of people landed at a remote small airport, changed to the airport bus and ran to the city. Then change to a broken bus and run to the south of the city. Change to a more worn-out bus and go to the southern suburbs, the bus in the middle is broken, and a group of people have to trek home for 20 minutes between the desolate and old streets, only Hesperis has experienced strong winds and waves I was quite calm on the road. If you want to change to a girl with a normal view of the world, you should start to suspect that Hao Ren is a human trafficker who specializes in trafficking women in the mountains and start planning to call the police. Finally, when the Hao family's old house finally appeared in front of everyone, Hesperis breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately... I thought I was going to live in a cave..."
Hao Ren raised his eyebrows: "What do you imagine my house is like?"
There was no joke on Hesperis's face: "You don't mind. I'm not being sarcastic—I know a lot of human wizards who live in caves. They behave eccentrically and like to do some very dangerous research. Places with many people Don't let them stay at all. But there are fewer and fewer wizards these days... "
"Because the witcher strangled too hard?"
Vivian spread her hands beside her: "Because the tourism industry is too developed, the people who dig rocks are becoming more and more cruel. These days, there is no way to stay in the mountains. Last year, there was a wizard in Zhejiang who was doing experiments in the cave. Blown up to death—and now he's in a lawsuit with the owner of the quarry."
Hesperis sighed: "Those who can't hide themselves these days are basically dead."
Hao Ren thought about it for a long time, and felt that the main reason why those wizards couldn't get along was that their minds weren't active enough—if they used the time they spent on magic to do a little research on how to make money, they would have enough holes to be a coal boss in Shanxi. If it doesn't work, you can go to Shennongjia to challenge the limits of the human body!
Of course, what happened to the wizard had nothing to do with his group of people. Hao Ren quickly put this matter behind him, and led a group of people back to the big house he had been away for a long time. As expected, another cloud of dust accumulated in the house, but it was much better than the last time I ran to another world for more than half a month. Vivienne started to tidy up the house in a hurry, and even Betsy went up to help. Hesperis looked at Vivienne in amazement and asked, "This is what you usually live in." place?"
"How is it? It's not bad!" Vivienne had just found a rag and was going to fetch water to wipe the table. Hearing this, she proudly showed off to Hesperis, "The living conditions are much better now than before!"
Hesperis didn't know what he was thinking, but just looked at Vivienne with a strange expression: "...it's not quite what I imagined, but it's really much better than I imagined anyway, it seems that you are very satisfied with the life you have now. satisfy?"
"Of course I'm satisfied, it's peaceful, it's lively, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and fun things often happen, it's much better than running around like before," Vivian replied while busy, and then started yelling in the water room , "Hey... why is the water cut off?"
"Maybe the pipe is frozen," Nangong Wuyue ran towards the water room covered in moisture, "Don't panic, I'll help! What kind of water do you want? Pure or mineral? Alkaline is also fine..."
Hao Ren hurriedly reminded from behind: "Be quiet! You almost flooded the kitchen last time! By the way, give Doudou a bath..."
Hesperis looked at the daily life of this family in amazement. The daily scene of this small "shelter" was obviously different from what she imagined. There was no intrigue in the shadow fortress, no layers of institutions, a large group of people of all races There were no fights among the different species, and this place didn't feel like a shelter at all to her, but more like an ordinary... common people's house.
Hao Ren's voice interrupted her thinking: "Then what, are you tired? If you are not tired, let's go to the basement for a scan first, and I will make a treatment plan for you."
As soon as Hesperis nodded, he heard Lily say with a serious face: "Basement physical examination. avi?"
Hao Ren slapped Husky on the head: "Can't you usually watch something positive? By the way, you are here to help. You are idle anyway."
Hesperis followed to the basement in a daze, but he was dumbfounded when he saw the scene inside.
"You... are you sure you are a wizard?" She stared at Hao Ren, "You should tell me about the treatment plan first, so I can be mentally prepared." (To be continued~^~)
