Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 239 "Disease Spreaders and Alchemical Plants"

The next morning.

Bisji's "Magic Beautician Miss Cookie" reduced the pressure on Xiaodi and Menqi, so they recovered the "Sleeping Girl" and prepared to set off.

After getting out of the cave, the nightly army of hundreds of ghosts from last night had disappeared, but their marching footprints were left on the ground, and there was order in the chaos.

The sky outside was still gray, with large groups of gray-white cumulus clouds covering the sky, blocking the sunlight, making it look like it was still night.

The gray-white "Aurora" in the distant sky has not dissipated, and everyone is walking in that direction.

As people with telekinesis abilities, they were as light as swallows and shuttled so fast between the gray and white rock formations that they could barely see their figures.

In less than half an hour, they came to a simple stone bridge formed by miraculous craftsmanship and looked at the scene in the distance.

I saw all the walking dead in the wilderness gathered here.

They were bustling and arranged in a clever ring formation, completely blocking the path forward of Germain's team.

Not only is the road blocked on the ground, but there is also no way to go in the sky.

Those resentful spirits were floating in the sky filled with gray smoke and dust, looking like schools of sardines gathering on the sea. They looked terrifyingly spectacular.

And at the very center, guarded by evil spirits and walking corpses, there appeared a gray-white plant that looked like a spear, piercing the sky.

There are many black balls growing on the skin of the "gray-white spear", which are densely packed and swaying up and down like sarcomas.

There are two huge "branches" at its bottom, bending downward, like a pair of thighs, supporting its huge body to stand up.

This is the target of Germain's team - "disease spreaders".

When Germain put down the telescope and turned around, the others were sitting cross-legged on the stone bridge, eating biscuits and making a clicking sound.

"What do you think?" Germain asked, "this huge formation next to the Disease Spreader?" "

Xiaodi adjusted her glasses: "It feels like a believer coming on a pilgrimage."

"I feel more like an evil sacrifice site." Bisji took a bite of the sandwich biscuit with some jam on the corner of his mouth. "You see, the cultists are offering their bodies and souls."

"What you two said can actually be regarded as the same statement." Men Qi sat cross-legged, bending forward, holding his chin with one hand and placing the other flat on his thigh.

Bisji curled his lips: "How can holy prayers and evil sacrifices be confused? Although I have never seen Xiaodi pray, is she a half-believer? You are insulting her faith."

Xiaodi stroked the reverse cross necklace on her chest: "I don't think it matters. I believe in God because I grew up in the church. The old priest protected me and taught me theology."

"Don't be like this, Xiaodi, if you say that, the old priest in Meteor Street will cry." Bisji couldn't help complaining, "I suddenly realized that we are full of weirdos."

Jin listened to the three women easily changing the topic and coughed quickly: "Let's get back to the current situation. My idea is that this is both a sacrifice and a kind of protection."

"Protect?" Bisji became interested and raised an eyebrow, "Protect what? If your ancestor didn't deliberately mislead us, then it should be immortal."

She spread her palms and said, "I really can't figure it out. What kind of protection does an immortal 'disease spreader' need?" "

"The answer to this question should be related to how to obtain "Alchemy Plant"..." Jin pointed in the direction of "Disease Spreader" and "Sacrifice Array", "We can get "Alchemy Plant" by attacking it. plant". "

Bisji didn't say anything. She took out her handkerchief, wiped the stains at the corners of her mouth, and listened quietly to Jin's next words.

“We have to go back to the ‘disease spreader’ itself. " Jin said, "It is actually a "philosopher's stone" that alchemists dream of. "

"The "Philosopher's Stone" as spoken by alchemists is a miracle that can be transformed into the "four elements of wind, water, fire, earth" and can make people immortal. "

“I think that just as the ‘bloodletting therapy that cures all diseases’ probably comes from the ‘bloodthirsty apostle of pain’, the ancient legend of the ‘philosopher’s stone’ comes from the ‘disease spreader’. "

"'Disease Spreaders and Alchemy Plants' can indeed make creatures immortal, but at the cost of turning the soul into an eternal wraith and the body into a walking zombie. "

"It can indeed be transformed into the "Four Elements", but the price is to absorb many resentful spirits. By consuming them, the power of the "Four Elements" can be transformed. "

"In this regard, the evil spirits are not immortal, because the "disease spreaders" can control their power of life and death. "

"Wraiths are consumables for the "Disease Spreader", and during the period when it absorbs and consumes the wraiths, it is the most vulnerable, so it needs so many walking dead to surround and protect it. "

"So, now is the best time to attack?" Bisji asked.

"We have to wait a little longer." Jin pointed to the sky above the "Disease Spreader", "Do you still remember the 'Aurora' you saw last night and this morning?"

"Remember." Bisji nodded.

"Now that 'Aurora' has disappeared, and the 'Disease Spreader' has not moved. I guess that is the external manifestation of its absorption of resentful spirits. "

"The "Disease Spreader" should be digesting the power of the vengeful spirit that it has absorbed, so it has to stop. "

Jin said firmly: "As long as the 'Aurora' appears again, the 'disease spreader' will make big moves, and it is very likely that it will not be interrupted at will." We can take advantage of this opportunity to attack. "

"If that's the case..." Germain interrupted at this time, "Now is the time."

When everyone heard Germain's reminder, they all turned their heads in surprise, and then they saw a gray-white "aurora" appear in the dark sky, which was more dense than the original dust.

And this "grey aurora" is spit out from the sharp point above the "disease spreader", which makes it look like a chimney.

The next moment, those fish-like resentful spirits twisted into huge whirlpools in the air.

With screams and howls of "oooooo" and "uhhhh", they penetrated into the black sarcomas on the skin of the "disease spreader".

After a while, the "Disease Spreader" began to tremble, and more black tumors grew.

These sarcomas that make people suffer from trypophobia are about to completely engulf the skin of the "disease spreader".

"It seems we have to hurry up." Jin said, "If my guess is correct, when there are enough black sarcomas, the "Disease Spreader" is fully charged and it is at its most powerful. "
