"Put down your sword, you can't go in with weapons."

"of course."

Passing the "Black Eagle" on his waist to the soldier, Lu Qi immediately said, "Can I go in now?"

"Go in, the mayor should be in the hall."

Stepping into the hall, Lu Qi quickly saw the mayor of Lynch Town—a middle-aged man with a thin body and no smile.

Seeing Lu Qi's strange face, the mayor who was sitting at the desk and dealing with paperwork asked casually:

"Young man, what do you want from me?"

"I'm Alex from Zawada, and I'm here to help you out of trouble."

"Trouble? You mean?"

"Trouble in the sky, Gryphon."

Hearing this, the mayor's reaction was the same as the two soldiers at the door. He was taken aback for a moment, then put down the quill in his hand, looked at Lu Qi for a while, and then asked suspiciously:

"You mean, you're going to kill that griffin? Alone?"

Nodding his head, Lu Qi maintained a calm expression, "I am a ranger who travels around the world, and I can also be regarded as a bounty hunter. Destroying wild animals is also within my business scope."

Although for Lu Qi, a young man who intends to single-handedly fight against the griffins, there are some.However, the person who can become the mayor of a town is not an ordinary person.

Even though he was very disliked by Lu Qi in his heart, the mayor still told the other party with relatively tactful words:

"It's not that I don't believe you? It's just that this griffin is too ferocious? It's not just staying in the forest? It has already started attacking the caravan. Just the day before yesterday, a caravan carrying seven or eight people was attacked. Only A young man survived. If you were to go alone? You would undoubtedly die."

"Trust me? I've dealt with more trouble than a flying beast"

"This"

Seeing the hesitation of the mayor, Lu Qi naturally understood what the other party was worried about. Wasn't he afraid that he would get the bounty? Turn around and run away.

In order to dispel the other party's concerns? Lu Qi couldn't help but said:

"Of course, actions are always more reliable than words. When I bring back the head of the griffin, it's not too late for you to consider giving me the bounty."

Hearing that there is no need to pay a deposit first, the mayor seemed relieved immediately, and then said:

"With this beast? What help do you need?"

"I'm curious, should there be a garrison in Lynch Town? Why didn't the army go out and hunt it down?"

"I also thought about doing this, but? The garrison has a mission and cannot be easily transferred. In desperation? I can only issue a commission? Ask for help from mercenaries or bounty hunters like you."

"So?" Lu Qi touched his smooth chin? Then he asked, "Tell me all the information about this griffin first, so that I can make some preparations in advance."

"A week ago, a hunter who lived near the forest outside the town was found dead somewhere in the forest, beyond recognition. In order to investigate this matter, I organized a hunting team and went to the forest."

"However, five or six people were all missing. We didn't know what happened until two days later, when the griffin attacked a caravan and left survivors."

"Since then, the griffin has become more rampant, and began to attack caravans and plains on roads and fields. So far, more than 15 people have died under the claws of this beast, including two knight"

"oh, I understand now"

Lu Qi was very impressed with Geralt's mission to kill the Griffin, the first boss in the true sense of "The Witcher III: Wild Hunt".

He still remembered that Geralt used a special herb to attract the griffin into the trap he had set.

The name of that herb seems to be called

"Chamna! I need some cascara and a live sheep. Also, I need to go to the scene where the griffin attacked the caravan."

"Chamna? I'll send someone to the herbalist and ask."

After all, the mayor raised his voice and shouted outside the door:

"Jacob!"

Hearing this name, Lu Qi's eyelids twitched, almost thinking that the shit-stirring stick of the Nighthawk Gang had also traveled here.

While thinking wildly, a blond young man with freckles on his face walked in, wearing a brown shirt.

"Your Excellency, you called me?"

"Well, take this Mr. Bounty Hunter to the outside of the city, where the griffins attacked the caravan."

Blinking his eyes, he looked at Lu Qi, the blond brother bowed slightly, and responded:

"As ordered."

Following the little brother with the same name as the London shit-stirring stick, after getting back the long sword from the soldier, the two of them headed out of the city non-stop

. . .

After walking for about 10 minutes, I finally came to a messy crime scene.

"It's here"

The blood-stained ground and broken tree trunks can still be seen at the scene that has been hastily cleaned up.

A few pools of blood that have darkened, you can see that the griffin

"Your Excellency, is your team going to hunt griffins?"

"Not my team, but me."

"You mean, you plan to hunt griffins alone?!" Closing his mouth that was opened in surprise, the blond boy looked at Lu Qi who was squatting on the ground, checking the scene, and couldn't help sighing:

"Wow, then you must be a very good bounty hunter."

"how do you know?"

"You know, it takes a lot of courage to face a griffin alone. Such a brave person must be a very outstanding person. If it were me, the moment I saw the griffin, I might have been too scared to move. , let alone draw a sword to fight with it.”

These words made Lu Qi raise his head involuntarily, and looked at this blond boy who was definitely not over 20 years old and had fuzz around his mouth.

"Hearing it all, I feel like a fearless warrior taking on a mighty monster. However, the truth is, I just don't take it seriously"

Hearing this, the blond brother was taken aback for a moment, and just about to speak, Lu Qi preempted him and said:

"You don't have to accompany me, go back first. I need someone to search for all the traces left by the griffin."

"Well, take care, the griffin may be looking for food. The last time it came out to attack the caravan was at this time."

"If that's the case, I'd love it"

After watching the blond brother leave, Lu Qi turned around and stared at the messy scene, the corner of his mouth curled up:

"Okay, let me see, what clues did you leave me?"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Qi's black eyes suddenly turned into white ones!

Chapter 536 Detective Lu Qi

Under the eagle eye vision, any information is clear at a glance.

Gryphon claw marks, human footprints, and

"Um?!"

At this time, a bloodstain left on the ground and extending outward attracted Lu Qi's attention.

There wasn't much blood, it was in the shape of drops, and the color was a little darker than human blood.

The human beings attacked by the griffins were either cut into several pieces on the spot, or were blown away, splashing blood everywhere. It was impossible to leave such regular sporadic bloodstains.

From this, it can be seen that this is definitely not left by the human being torn into pieces by the griffin, but more like what the griffin was injured!

Considering that the attacked caravan consisted of seven or eight people with a certain ability to resist, it is not impossible to cause bleeding damage to the griffin.

Seeing the bloodstains heading towards the forest, Lu Qi blinked, and followed the bloodstains without hesitation.

The bloodstains left by the griffins were not many, and they were very secretive.However, under [Eagle Eye Vision], there is still nothing to hide.

Fortunately, there has been no rain in this area for the past two days, otherwise, the bloodstains would have been washed away, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Following the blood trail and going deep into the forest, Lu Qi soon came to a slightly steep hillside.

Climbing over the rock wall, Lu Qi came to the end of the bloodstains - Griffin's lair!

However, everything in front of him made Lu Qi frowned and murmured:

"I see"

On a relatively flat open space, a huge griffin corpse was already lying.

Looking closely at the appearance of the griffin, Lu Qi found that the neck of the griffin seemed to be wearing an off-white scarf, with lush hair.Appearance? It looks like a cat's face? With an eagle's sharp beak, it is very unique.

This griffin had obviously been dead for more than a day or two. The body exuded a strong rotten smell, which attracted a large number of flies, and even hatched maggots could be seen from the wound.

As for the fatal wound that caused the Griffin's death, it was obviously the arrows piercing his body!

The line of sight skipped the various piles of bones scattered on the ground? Lu Qi looked directly to the side? A few human corpses lying on the dried blood.

To say it was a corpse, a more accurate term would be fragments of a corpse.

Judging from the clothes on a relatively intact corpse and the bows and arrows scattered on the ground? These humans? They should be the hunting team sent by the mayor to investigate.

After synthesizing all the clues at the scene, a relatively complete and logical story was pieced together in Lu Qi's mind:

First of all, the hunter was attacked by a griffin? Unrecognizable, it was the cause of the incident.

In order to investigate, the mayor sent a hunting party into the forest.

After some searching, the hunting team accidentally discovered the griffin's lair, and set fire to kill a sleeping or resting griffin.

Then? They don't know? Griffin is a male and female pair? They have been together since childhood.

Another griffin, who went out to look for food, just came home and found that his partner had been killed by humans, so he went on a killing spree and killed the entire hunting team.

In the end, the grievous griffin, in order to retaliate against humans, began to leave the forest and attack humans!

Going around to the other side of the griffin's corpse, Lu Qi also found some white eggshells left in the grass nest made of branches.

"Could it be that Griffin has children?!"

Whispering, Lu Qi searched again, but did not find the body of the griffin cub.

Silently writing down this detail, Lu Qi casually collected a few feathers from the dead griffin, then turned and left.

. . .

It was evening when we returned to town.

On the way to the mayor's house, Lu Qi faintly heard the passing residents discussing the topic of griffins:

"The griffin just attacked people again"

"Ah, where?"

"On the field outside the city, Henry of the Weta family was bitten off half of his body by a griffin. That scene was really terrifying."

When he came to the mayor's house, the mayor, who was talking to his servants, his eyes lit up, and he immediately greeted him:

"Your Excellency Alex, you came just in time! The griffin just attacked civilians outside the city again!"

"I heard, where did it attack"

"On the field west of the city, one was killed and one injured. By the way, how is your on-site investigation going?"

"Basically completed, I have a general understanding of the situation of this beast."

After all, Lu Qi told the mayor what he found in the griffin's lair.

After listening to the whole story speculated by Lu Qi, the mayor couldn't help cursing in a low voice:

"Those damned idiots! Why did they make such a big mess?"

After scolding a few unlucky guys who had paid their lives as the price, the mayor couldn't help calming down, and looked at Lu Qi:

"Your Excellency Alex, we have prepared the medicinal herbs and live sheep you want, you see"

Obviously, the griffin's attack again made the mayor even more anxious, wishing to deal with this trouble immediately.

Although I don't know how good Lu Qi is, whether he can kill the griffin.However, the mayor, who was devastated by the griffin attack, had no choice but to act as a living horse doctor, pinning all his hopes on this calm black-haired man.

"Don't worry, at noon tomorrow, I will set up an ambush to lure the griffin over and hunt it down."

"Then please!"

"By the way, I have already told the proprietress of the tavern that all your consumption in the tavern is free of charge. Please take a good rest."
