God-level Demon Hunter

Roy's veiny left hand grabbed the attacking claw, and his right hand grabbed a stuffed crossbow out of thin air. With five fingers clenched tightly, he poked the arrow into its eye socket first.

"Woo-woo-"

The boy hunter made a strange cry like a crying baby, white smoke billowed from its eyes, and dark green blood flowed out. It suddenly burst out with a huge force, broke away from Roy's hand, screamed frantically and rushed to the side into the tunnel.

In an extremely awkward posture, it wriggled in the tunnel like a slippery loach, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Roy, you take Tom out first, and give this thing to me!"

Cadel dropped his words, and chased after the blood with a dagger and a torch.

"Huh... so dangerous, I almost capsized in the gutter!" Roy breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, the sharp claws almost scratched his throat, and everything would be meaningless by then.

"Are you... injured?" A weak greeting came from the side.

"Tom, don't worry, I'm fine." Roy wiped the cold sweat off his face, and quickly rescued the boy from the sticky vomit. It also looks a bit like soft boiled cheese.Roy casually rubbed a ball the size of a fist and stuffed it into the space.

Then he climbed out of the tunnel with Tom on his back.There was no setback on the way, and the boy hunter ghost didn't know which tunnel was driven by Kadel.

Roy rushed to the entrance of the tree hole smoothly, dragged the vines up the slope and handed Tom to Vivien outside.

Surprised and delighted, the woman quickly put on a coat for the shivering boy.

"Roy, you found..."

"There's no time to explain now. The monster hasn't been solved yet. I have to help Kadel and take care of him!" Leaving a sentence behind, without waiting for her to ask, Roy returned to the tree hole.

Following the blood trail, he found the opposing sides in the deepest part of the fifth cave. Kadel and the boy hunter were both wounded. The former covered his bleeding abdomen with one hand, and shook the torch with the other hand to protect himself. His face was pale. Apparently it won't last long.

The boy hunter was also uncomfortable, blinded in one eye, and Kadel cut dozens of fine wounds on his body with a dagger, but these wounds did not bleed anymore.

Obviously, the salt on the weapon is far from enough to kill.

Thoughtful, Roy called out the hand crossbow.

"Whoosh—" A cold arrow hit the Boy Hunter's knee. It trembled all over, half-bowed, opened its bloody mouth at the sneak attacking Roy, let out a threatening growl, and was about to pounce.

Roy ignored it, pulled an arrow, and another arrow hit its other knee.

In a few seconds, the boy hunter became crippled. Even if it could heal itself, it would take time, at least it couldn't move faster in a short period of time.

"Principal Kadel, get behind me!" Roy continued to shoot the monster's legs while stepping back.

Kadel was puzzled when he heard the words, but he still followed Roy's words, maintained a defensive posture, and slowly retreated with him.

The scene at the moment has become two people retreating into the tunnel, while the boy hunter is hiding in the innermost part of the lair, separated by a distance of twenty or so, the ugly face like a skeleton grinning at them continuously, and the black claws like a ghost Waving frantically in the air, making a threatening gesture.

It is like a mad dog provoked by humans. Even though it is full of anger, it still dare not rush over because of the weapons and torches in the hands of humans.

When the distance between the two parties reached thirty minutes, a green glass jar suddenly appeared in Roy's hand, and he charged forward and threw it forward. The glass jar drew a straight line in midair and hit the child hunter.

"boom--"

The glass shattered, and there was a short and violent detonation in an instant. The entire lair burst into incomparably gorgeous flames. The fire snake jumped and twisted wantonly, the air seemed to be ignited, and the temperature rose several degrees.

The child hunter ghost in the center directly turned into a human-shaped torch, with astonishing heat and light, and walked towards Roy and Kadel step by step with pain and wailing. However, most of its legs had been crippled, and it couldn't catch up at all. The speed at which the two retreated.

The power of the Dancing Star is so amazing that even the sparks falling from it will quickly ignite the dead branches and leaves around it.

The fire grew stronger and stronger, and behind the tunnel, the entire nest was ablaze.

It walked in the lair of flames for about 2 minutes, exhausted all its strength and fell to the ground, turning into a pile of coke.

"Kill the boy hunter.

Get 100 experience points. "

Having retreated to the entrance of the tree hole, Roy heaved a sigh of relief.

"We have to hurry up and take out the bones of those poor children!"

Chapter 28 Closing

In the courtyard of the Cadell House, the moonlight illuminated four incomplete skeletons, most of which were slender and stained with pale yellow.

The headmaster, with a white bandage wrapped around his waist and abdomen, turned his sharp gaze back and forth several times, and a trace of confusion appeared on his pale face due to blood loss.

"Evidently I have killed that monster, why can't I remember at all? Besides Tom, what are the names of these four children?"

"Although it's not mentioned in the notes..." Roy pursed his lips, "but I think this kind of forgetfulness is irreversible, even if the child hunter is dead. Only people like Tom who survived and stayed in the real world The traces can be repaired." The five-pointed star on Roy's left sleeve was restored to its original state.

Cadel shook his head, seemingly dissatisfied with the result.

"At least we saved little Tom," Roy said, "and from now on, the children in the school will never be threatened by monsters again."

It was amazing to say that one hour after the two men took out all the bones in the tree hole, the tree hole at the root of the hornbeam closed again.At this time, Roy tried to sprinkle salt on it, but he could no longer summon the tree hole, and the horned tree seemed to have completely lost its magic power.

Roy had a vague feeling that the underground space where the boy hunter lived before might not be inside the Horn Tree, but a different space.Soon after the child hunter ghost died, the magic power to maintain the space gradually dissipated, and it was naturally difficult to find the tree hole.He originally wanted to go back and cut off the tongue of the charred corpse.Oakes had said it was worth a fortune.

But now it seems that there is no chance.

"How is it? Do you have any new discoveries?" Vivien walked over from the house with a tired and sad face.The relative who was looking for so hard turned into a skeleton without a sound, and even the memory of him could not be retrieved.

Two years of hard work seemed to be in vain.

"Can you identify the identities of these children?"

"I'm afraid I can't... Now it seems that forgetting is irreversible." Roy noticed the other party's ugly face and said comfortingly, "Sister Vivien, 'he' has been released from the magic cave in the tree hole, and may have entered Reby We also avenged Prophet Oda’s country, and recovered, uh… his bones, and finally we can find a burial place for him. Don’t be too sad.”

Vivien covered her face and took a deep breath, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Actually, when I saw the notes, I guessed that he was gone, I just couldn't accept it for a while... But you are right. His soul must be has entered the kingdom of the prophets. I will find a good place for his bones."

After a brief silence,

"Let's talk about being happy... how's that kid Tom?"

"I just took a hot bath for him and applied some ointment. He fell asleep again." Referring to the survivor, Vivien's eyes finally brightened a little. "He is lucky, there are only a few scratches and bites on his neck, and he has no memory of the whole process of being taken away, he only remembers that he fell asleep and saw you and that monster when he woke up..."

"The boy hunter would give him nightmares for days and nothing else."

"That's good." Roy looked at the sky again, "Let's talk about the rest tomorrow, and I should go back to the mill."

"Wait, Roy." Cadel asked suddenly, "Where did you get the bomb you used on the boy hunter?"

Roy noticed the anticipation in the opponent's eyes, and he understood that this member of the revolutionary army should have the idea of ​​"Dancing Star".

"That's a special alchemy bomb made by the demon hunter..." Roy lied, "Only those who are recognized by the demon hunter can activate it. It's a self-defense gift from the teacher. It's the only one, and it's useless when it's used up." gone."

"Really?" Kadel couldn't hide the disappointment on his face.

……

Back at the mill, Roy found Toya by the pond. At that time, the girl was staring at the reflection on the water in a daze, her face was lonely, and her back exuded loneliness.Roy thought, if she was in the Cadell House, she would definitely not be able to escape being hunted.

"Sorry, I'm late today." Roy walked up to her and sat down. The girl's shoulders trembled, her round face showed uncontrollable surprise, and the end of her words trembled slightly, "It's okay, I can I understand...you also have a job in the city, so you are very busy today, right?"

In fact, she was terribly afraid in her heart. She always had a strong worry that the happy time in the past half month was just her illusion.Today, when she found out that Roy didn't return to the mill on time, her worry reached its peak, and she was filled with despair.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm!He's back... This friend really exists.

Toya felt a breath of relief in every cell of her body.

Roy shook his head, "It's not because of work. During this period of time, I encountered a strange incident in Cadell's House. It is related to the magic I mentioned last time, and it is also about the group of neglected children. Do you want to listen."

"it is good!"

……

In the early morning of the next day, Roy woke up at four o'clock on time after finishing his meditation, and first disposed of the body of the bald man in the space.

Then he rushed to the bazaar in the city of Edelsberg, right here, at the herbal medicine stall that he had served for more than half a month, he still had a bill to settle.

However, when he squeezed through a bunch of bare-armed coolies and came to the herbal medicine stand, he found that the building was "empty".

Not to mention the stall owner Tross who set up two rounds for him in the lower city, even the shelves were removed.turned into a vacant lot.

Reluctantly, he asked Emil who sells barbecue... but the other party gave him an answer that surprised him.

"Ask Uncle Tross? I thought he told you that he left Edsberg with all his family and property yesterday morning after setting up the stall."

"Moved away with your family?"

He has been operating in Edsberg for more than ten years, so he is willing to give up everything?

Scared of me a teenager?

I can't justify it.

"Who told you that he has opened a herbal shop in Edersburg for more than ten years?" Emil was surprised, "He just came to the city to work for two months, not much earlier than you. After all, the business is actually pretty good , why did you suddenly move away..."

Who is this guy?Professional liar?

Roy pondered for a long time, only remembering his wretched smile, and felt a little guilty for no reason.

Just go!

Now that the job at the herbal shop fell through.He allocated more time in the morning to the poultry stall. After killing the monsters under the tree hole, the experience value reached Lv2 (820/1000). If there is more business during this period, it may be raised to Lv3 in less than a week .

……

In the afternoon, the Cadell House is still as peaceful as it used to be. The children are playing happily under the hornbeam tree. They seem to be completely unaware that the boy who is staring alone at the door of the classroom has gone and returned.

Ignored, still ignored, nothing has changed.

"Tom, go and join them." Roy touched the boy's blond hair and encouraged him, "You have already escaped from the mouth of a ferocious monster and crawled back from the brink of death. What else is there to be afraid of?"

"If you want to be noticed and make more friends, you have to take the initiative to fight for it. Looking around like a fool has no effect. Whoever dares to bully you again, at worst, fight him!"

With a sudden move, Roy pushed the stunned boy into the crowd.Watching him blushing and awkwardly greeting the students around him.

Cadel quietly came to Roy's side, her complexion was not very good, she was injured enough last night to support her for a while.

The principal kept everything about the horned tree and the monsters living under it.

The traces of the dead children have not been recovered and are still forgotten by the world.Even if it were made public, what else could it cause but doubts and troubles?

"This morning, Vivien and I buried the bones in a nearby cemetery." Cadel paused, "There is one more thing. Roy, anyway, because you helped the school solve this hidden danger, Vivien asked The bodies of their loved ones were returned, and those poor children were seen again. I thank you for them. I know the rules of the witcher... I will pay you a reward. How about 100 crowns?"

In fact, one hundred crowns is not enough for the material cost of Dancing Star.But that's about all Cadell can give.

"This amount of money is not enough." Roy glanced at the boys and girls running in the courtyard, and a soft spot in his heart was suddenly touched, "Give me a meal instead."

"Then please be sure to accept this gift, Roy."

Vivien quietly walked out from behind Kadel, took off the silver pendant on his chest, and hung it around his neck

There is gratitude in the beautiful eyes, "Trust me, it will bring you good luck and blessings..."

Chapter 29 Mana Erosion

A week later, Roy sat in the barn at the mill, mentally betting on the template:

Personal Level Lv3 (0/1500)

Possess skill point 1, attribute point 1

If it was changed to before, he would continue to concentrate resources to improve the superior attributes, and still add attribute points to the perception of 7 points.

But recently his thinking has changed, he realized that every point of improvement in strength should be a preparation for the green grass trial.

No matter how high he superimposes his perception, if he fails to survive the green grass trial and dies, then everything will be in vain.According to what Lei Suo said before leaving, the apprentice's will to survive and the body's resistance to poison will all affect the survival rate of the trial, the higher the better.

The attributes corresponding to these two indicators are Will and Constitution respectively.The former Roy is only 4.8, which is less than 5 of the average level, and the latter has just reached the standard because of the herbs he swallowed.

So from now on, the attribute points and skill points he gained from leveling up should be used as much as possible to improve these two attributes.

Roy glanced at the skill bar.

Meditation Lv1: This is the practice of the body and the mind. Through meditation, the body and mind can be adjusted to speed up the recovery of injuries, magic power and physical fitness.At the same time, slowly improve the coordination ability and increase the affinity for chaotic energy.

Note: Every time this skill is improved, physical and mental attributes will be permanently enhanced.

The demon hunter Leto is old enough to be his grandfather, but he has not been able to train meditation to level 10. The difficulty can be imagined.The most important point is that it can permanently enhance the mind and body... Thinking of this, Roy focused his attention on the plus sign behind "meditation". Immediately, the handwriting of Lv1 was blurred and faded, and it became Lv2 after a few seconds.

Roy then added willpower to the attribute points.

In an instant, a warm current surged through the limbs, and every piece of skin, muscle, bone, and blood vessel was activated, like a tree root pierced into the soil, quickly absorbing nutrients and becoming tougher and stronger.

And the brain in the skull, the most mysterious area, was also moistened, surrounded by a cool breath, as if there were countless small hands gently stroking, every cell screamed comfortably .

Roy opened his eyes suddenly, and a star-like light flashed in them.But it only lasted for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Meditation Lv1→Lv2

Spirit 6 → 6.5
