Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

Chapter 173 Hunting Black Fang (6k4)

About half an hour later, the law enforcer walked out of the door of the "Treasure House of Rings" again.

"All the items listed in the legal document have been sorted out."

The law enforcer said to Luo Xiu, "According to Lord Landauer's instructions, you can choose and take away part of it yourself, and we will organize soldiers to escort the rest to the church in Sina City."

"Okay." Luo Xiu nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."

The law enforcer turned sideways, made a "please" gesture for Luo Xiu, and then walked in front, leading Luo Xiu into the "Treasure House of Precepts".

Crossing the threshold of the ocher door, Luo Xiu entered the "Treasure House of Precepts".

All the sorted materials were placed on the ground in the treasure house courtyard according to categories, and the entrances to each storage area used for storage were sealed by barriers. Luo Xiu, as an "outsider", could not pass freely.

So he stopped looking around, walked to the organized supplies, and selected the parts he wanted to carry with him.

——3 pieces of "master" quality extraordinary equipment, 5 third- and fourth-level spiritual crystals, 20 bottles of high-level potions and 100 platinum coins... After selecting these, Luo Xiu stored them all in his bracelet and said to Shili. The law enforcer standing by said:

"Okay, please send someone to transport the rest to Sina City."

"Do you have a blank piece of paper? I'm going to write a statement to the church."

"..."

"Yes." The law enforcer nodded and said, "Please wait a moment."

After saying that, the law enforcer retreated to the other side of the storage warehouse and disappeared into the barrier.

After waiting for a moment, his figure appeared again, holding two blank pages of golden paper and an ink pen decorated with gold ornaments in his hand.

Luo Xiu took the pen, wrote down a rough explanation, and then handed them all back to the law enforcer and said, "Send the covering letter. Our bishops and priests will understand what I mean."

"Okay." The law enforcement officer nodded, "We will carry out the execution."

Luo Xiu felt very comfortable after leaving the Ring Treasure House with the selected "subsidy".

New equipment, spiritual crystals and potions... This instantly gave Luo Xiu a lot more props to use in battle, giving him a full sense of security.

It was already afternoon, so Luo Xiu turned to a deserted alley and "used" the third-level and fourth-level spiritual crystals first, so that his "skill" and "skill" slots were +10 respectively, becoming More abundant.

At the same time, Luo Xiu carried out another "equipment replacement" for himself.

The "Mysterious Rune Armband" he had been equipped with for a long time was replaced by the "Giant Bracer", which is a "Master" quality wristband made by the craftsmen of the "Giant Clan", which can greatly increase the "Strength" attribute and Physical damage bonus and large damage reduction.

At the same time, Luo Xiu was equipped with the "Wolf Knight Leg Armor", which is one of the master-quality equipment favored by the supreme "Throne Knight Candidates". It can greatly increase agility and greatly improve the release efficiency of skills.

However, although they are all "master" quality equipment, there is still a big gap between them and equipment of the same quality forged by the dwarf Mir himself - with the professional bonuses of the dwarf master craftsman and "rune blacksmith", Equipment of the same quality forged by Mir will be much stronger than others and more cost-effective.

This is one of the reasons why Luo Xiu likes to find Mil for customization, but generally does not go to the official extraordinary market to buy extraordinary equipment or props.

——But free prostitution is justice! When Luo Xiu equipped these "master" quality equipment, he still felt a sense of refreshment.

There is one piece of "master" quality equipment left, which is a dagger-type weapon. Luo Xiu is going to leave it to Indis, and by the way, he will also inherit the "secret rune bracelet" to his "dependent" ".

After quickly completing the absorption of spiritual crystals and replacement of equipment, Luo Xiu took out the "Silver Dial Compass" and began to observe the movement of the dial needle in the plate.

It was afternoon now, and it was too early to return to Wolfhound Tavern. Luo Xiu decided to do something.

——The first official contact with the executioner’s “black teeth”!

From the reaction of the silver dial compass, Luo Xiu knew that the group of "black teeth" had also just arrived in Songyuan City. Before they have a firm foothold, quickly launch the first wave of sweeps against them, and the benefits will be the greatest!

Those "black teeth" never imagined that the target they originally regarded as "prey" might actually "hunt" them in turn!

When thinking of this, Luo Xiu had a smile on his face. He touched the slightly raised corners of his mouth with his fingers and walked deeper into the alley, his back disappearing around the corner.

Songyuan City, Iron Cross Street.

Guilford Lane.

This is one of the earliest alleys in Songyuan City. Although the floor decoration on both sides of the alley has faded and decayed, some silhouettes of the past history can still be seen in it.

It is said that this alley was named after Guilford, a big businessman from the "El Dorado". He once bought the permanent land use rights in this neighborhood and built a luxurious manor house on it. .

As for this big businessman of the older generation, he uniquely discovered the color value of "Guilford Lane" and built it into a unique style street. This originally remote deep lane has become an attraction. The "Red Light Street", which was frequented by many wealthy businessmen, nobles and officials, became famous for a while.

However, with the promulgation of the new imperial decree, the color industry was shut down and banned in large areas, and the industry in Guilford Lane quickly declined.

Guilford himself was regarded as the "culprit" of betrayal by some color industry businessmen who had suffered losses due to the new order. One day, Guilford was found dead in his mansion. The cause of death was unknown.

But it was clear to anyone involved that Guilford had been killed by an assassination. Officials speculated that businessmen whose profits had been damaged paid for the murder, and officials eventually closed the case and executed a businessman in the color industry.

It is said that since then, Guilford's mansion has become a "haunted house", and nearby citizens can often hear inexplicable howling, but every time the garrison officer comes to check, he has not found any clues.

Because Guilford Lane has lost its value, the manpower and material resources required to rectify this remote neighborhood are too great, and there are no middle-class or above civilians living nearby. In addition, no one has actually been harmed by the "haunted house". Therefore, Songyuan The city's garrison officers gradually gave up on completely solving the "haunted house" and instead allowed it to exist.

Guilford had no heirs, and his family relatives were far away in the Golden Kingdom. Although the Songyuan City Government Residence did not take back his land deed, his manor and mansion also quickly fell into ruins and became the ruins it is today after being neglected for many years. A scene like a dead building.

At this time, deep in Guilford Lane.

In the already dilapidated manor, four shadows were dormant.

No one knows, but this is actually one of the strongholds where the "Black Fangs" hide!

The four Black Fangs who are now dormant here have only one purpose for infiltrating and temporarily stationing here.

Find and kill the "priest" and get the fragments of a codex from his hands!

"I really don't know why Mr. Kross cares so much about this matter..."

A deep and hoarse voice came from the black mist cloak.

"...'Mist Demon'."

Beside Black Fang, codenamed "Mist Demon", a scarred sword-faced man with all white pupils said sullenly, "This is not something you should consider. I just want to kill him quickly and then go back."

"...Yes. You are right, 'Razor'." "Mist Demon" smiled and said, "It's just that sending four of us 'Black Fangs' out, no matter what, I always feel... it's a bit too exaggerated. ”

"You are new to us, Mist Demon. This is not an exaggeration."

"Razor" rolled his eyes, and blood oozed from the scar on his face, which looked extremely terrifying. He said in a cold tone:

"Me, Gargoyle and Viper, we have all experienced something like this."

"The continuous dispatch of more than four 'Black Fangs' shows that Sir Koros considers the situation to be serious. However, the fact that no 'Haws' have been dispatched yet indicates that it is not serious enough to require Sir Koros to take action..."

"..."

"Tsk, you really know a lot." "Mist Demon" smacked his lips.

Opposite "Mist Demon" and "Razor", the other two Black Fangs remained silent and did not join their conversation.

Suddenly, the "gargoyle"'s body moved. He quickly reached into his black robe and took out a shining silver compass.

"...The target moved, very quickly." The gargoyle spoke, his voice was extremely low, accompanied by the sound of bubbles bursting, as if what he was talking about was not a living person, but a corpse.

"The target has moved?" Razor and Mist Demon looked over at the same time, surprise flashing in their eyes.

Suddenly, a "buzzing" sound came from the silver dial compass in the gargoyle's hand. The compass began to tremble violently, and the surface temperature also began to rise rapidly.

"He's getting closer!" The gargoyle shouted in surprise, his voice suddenly rising several degrees.

However, just as the Black Fangs were thinking about the strange behavior of the "target", the Gargoyle saw that the "Silver Dial Compass" in his hand, the dial needle condensed with mercury in the plate, suddenly exploded at the next moment, dispersing into silver liquid. Sedimented in the grooves, all movement is lost.

The spirituality attached to the mercury has failed! They completely lost track of their target! When the scene suddenly happened in front of them, Gargoyle, Razor and Mist Demon, they were all dumbfounded at the same time.

Hiss, hiss... A real poisonous snake emerged from the cloak of "Venomous Snake". It spat out red messages at the surrounding black fangs, and its vertical pupils symbolizing cold blood were gradually dyed with golden color. Go deep red!

"Ero is telling me of danger..."

"Venomous Snake" made a sharp but unassuming voice and said to the surrounding Black Fangs, "I have a guess that the target may..."

——Bang! ! !

Before "Venomous Snake" finished speaking, the vision of all the Black Fangs was instantly deprived of dazzling white light. Then, they heard the sound of glass breaking.

On the exterior wall of the manor house, the colored decorative glass that had accumulated dust was instantly shattered by lightning. The shards of glass flew out, leaving shallow scratches on the bodies of the Black Fangs inside the house.

"...coming towards us."

Feeling that his vision was gradually recovering, "Viper" finally spoke the second half of the sentence completely.

However, when his vision recovered, he saw a horrific scene——

As the leader of their "Black Fang" team this time, "Gargoyle"'s cloak hood has been torn, and his head has disappeared, leaving only the decapitated neck, with blood spurting out!

In the "Venomous Snake"'s frightened eyes, he saw the culprit who killed the "Gargoyle".

A figure wrapped in a pitch-black cloak and wearing a black-patterned puppet mask suddenly appeared in front of the "Black Fangs" without knowing when!

This uninvited guest held a scarlet scythe in his right hand, and there was still blood on the blade of the scythe. That was the blood of the "Gargoyle"!

In his left hand, he was holding a gorgeous green staff. "Venomous Snake" could feel that the staff contained a very terrifying aura. If he was slightly touched by the staff, he might die from the poison!

Black Fang, codenamed "Venomous Snake", who was associated with poison, rarely showed a look of fear on his deep purple face corroded by poison gas.

"…Heh. Hiding in such a place."

Under the black-patterned puppet mask, Luo Xiu said lightly and teased.

He broke the glass wall of the mansion with the "Thunder of Judgment", and then used the shared ability of the "Nightmare Wolf" to quickly move through the shadows. The moment before the Black Fangs' deprived vision was restored, he came to their center.

"Gargoyle" was the leader of the Black Fang team this time. He just took out his "Silver Sundial Compass" to observe, which made Luo Xiu's first target of attack, and locked him.

"Hand of Judgement" started, Luo Xiu's right hand began to burn the holy flame, and at the same time, the "Demon Flame of Destruction" of "Ancient Heritage" was activated, and the Moon-Cutting Scythe in his right hand suddenly emitted a terrifying scarlet flame!

Then, when all the "Black Fangs" lost their ability to move, Luo Xiu transformed the sickle in his hand into the "beheading" form of the red moon. The power of his sickle slash at this time immediately separated the head and body of the "Gargoyle"!

The first Black Fang was beheaded, and the Silver Sundial Compass in his hand rolled to the ground with his head. The blood and turbid liquid smeared bloody and terrifying patterns on the ground.

When the "Gargoyle" was attacked and killed, the "Viper" closest to him was stunned by fear, and the "Mist Demon" and "Razor" were the first to react. They immediately manipulated their spirituality and attacked Luo Xiu!

The Mist Demon turned into black fog, and the interior of the mansion was suddenly filled with darkness. The scars on Razor's body suddenly broke open, and the blood gushing out gathered in his left hand, forming a scarlet sharp knife.

Rumble, a thunderous sound came from the thick fog filled with the Mist Demon. Luo Xiu suddenly felt a turbulence in his mind, but the absolute advantage of the spiritual level allowed him to quickly return to a clear state of mind.

Luo Xiu raised his hand at the same time, and a burst of brilliant golden light floated, quickly dispelling the thick fog of the Mist Demon.

——"Burning Feather Raven" Fog Night! It burned with golden holy flames and flew towards the corners of the room where the black fog was swirling.

"Ugh, ahhhh!" A wailing sound came from the corner. It was the painful wail of the fog demon when its body was burned by the holy flame.

Luo Xiu no longer paid attention to the fog demon's movements. He glanced at the black tooth codenamed "Razor".

In Razor's hand, the strange long knife with scarlet flowing had already taken shape. A ferocious smile appeared on his face. His pupils turned bloodthirsty scarlet at the same time, and he slashed at Luo Xiu with the knife.

The blood curtain flowed from the blade, and Razor suddenly jumped up. The sharp knife in his hand drew a string of blood flowers, and those blood curtains approached Luo Xiu's position at the same time.

"... Are you a 'bloodthirster'?"

Luo Xiu looked at Razor and said with some surprise.

That was the forbidden spell of "Blood Eater". Only the "bloodthirster" of the fate of [Red Lotus] could control it, and only the non-human race could become a "bloodthirster".

In other words, the "Black Fang" in front of him, with all white pupils and scars on his face, is actually not a human, at least not a pure-blooded human race... Is the standard for selecting "Black Fang" in the Dark Principality so broad? Luo Xiu thought while casting the next holy spell on "Razor".

——"Prison Evil Temple"!

"Razor" was still jumping in the air, and suddenly a golden ring appeared under his feet. Countless thin lines emerged from the ring and tightly bound his ankles.

The next moment, an illusory golden spear rushed out of the ring and completely penetrated "Razor" from the back to the chest!

The change suddenly occurred, but "Razor" did not feel the pain of being injured, and a wild laugh appeared on his face, "Is that all! Just..."

"Razor" had just cut out all the blood curtains, waiting for those blood curtains to be cut down on the enemy in front of him with his last slash.

However, Razor failed to make the last cut. He just wanted to swing his arm, but found that he could not move!

In an instant, the wild smile on Razor's face turned into horror. He tried to struggle to swing his arm, but failed twice and three times.

Luo Xiu's sickle flashed, and the "blood curtains" touched by the sickle blade were broken in an instant, turning into mottled spirituality and disappearing.

In Razor's horrified eyes, Luo Xiu slowly hooked the sickle on his neck.

"...Isaac is right."

Luo Xiu said in a cold tone, "You are indeed insects."

-Wow!

The scarlet sickle blade suddenly chopped down, and the neck of "Razor" was instantly empty, the head rolled off, and blood gushed out.

"Razor"'s headless body gradually fell down, losing all vitality.

After killing the second Black Fang, Luo Xiu turned his eyes and looked at every corner of the room.

The black fog spread by the "Mist Monster" had been completely extinguished by the holy flames of the "Burning Feather Raven". There was still a faint wailing sound coming from the corner, but the sound was very low.

Luo Xiu raised his hand, and a ball of light containing the power of annihilation appeared in his palm, and he threw it towards the source of the sound.

——Sizzle… a burning sound was heard, and the wailing sound from the "fog demon" disappeared immediately. The last trace of black fog also completely disappeared, and a thin, dry, charred corpse appeared on the ground.

"Burning Feather Raven" Wu Ye, then called back all the fire feathers that filled the entire room. It flapped its wings and flew up, landing on Luo Xiu's shoulder.

Four Black Fangs, Luo Xiu killed three of them in an instant, and the last Black Fang "codenamed" Viper took advantage of the gap between Luo Xiu being entangled by the fog demon and the razor to hide.

However, "Viper" was not really hiding.

——Sizzle! There were bursts of breaking sounds in the air, and just behind Luo Xiu, a fang dagger with a strange dark green flow was suddenly attacking him!

"Viper" looked crazy, holding the poisonous dagger with both hands, waiting for this sure-fire blow.

The dagger was infinitely close to the waist and abdomen of the enemy in front of him. The corners of the "Viper"'s mouth began to rise, and he could not help imagining the scene of the enemy's vitals being severely injured and falling in a pool of blood for him to slaughter.

"Viper" was very confident. The dagger in his hand was tempered with the venom of his life snake "Ero". Its toxicity was enough to kill the extraordinary people with the second destiny in an instant. Even if the extraordinary people with the third or fourth destiny were completely pierced by his dagger, they would suffer from the erosion of the venom and lose their ability to move in a short time!

However, the fantasy of "Viper" did not come true. The tip of the dagger did touch the mysterious enemy in front of him. However, the position where it pierced was full of spiritual ripples, and did not send back the real feeling of piercing.

"Viper" pupils shrank, but he did not give up.

This is just that the damage of piercing is offset by "spiritualization"! Many extraordinary people have similar means to be immune to damage! "Viper" thought so, and at the same time he pushed out all his spirituality and poured it into the dark green dagger in his hand.

His natal snake "Ero" quickly jumped out of his cloak and drilled into the "dagger", making the dark green on the dagger even deeper and more weird.

The dagger is also the container of the venomous snake "Ero"! A rampant smile appeared on the face of "Viper", and extremely strong poison was emitted from the dagger in his hand.

However, in the next moment.

"Viper" saw with his own eyes that the "venom" formed by the spirituality and "Ero" did enter the enemy's body, but it was quickly dissipated by an unknown force.

All the "venom" was ineffective, which made the rampant and ferocious look on the face of "Viper" quickly dissipate, turning into despair.

"Why... why!" "Viper" roared angrily, and the enemy in front of him finally turned around.

——Swish! A deep red light flashed, and both hands of the "Viper" were cut off at once. Half of his arm fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and stopped at the feet of the "Viper".

"Viper" looked at everything happening in front of him in astonishment. He did not understand and could not accept the scene in front of him.

He failed, but he did not understand why he failed. It was not until the severe pain of his arm being cut off surged into his brain that he clearly realized the real desperate situation he was in.

"Uh uh ah ah ah ah ah!" "Viper" screamed in pain, and at the same time he knelt on the ground and in front of his two broken arms, his eyes full of fear and despair.

"Do you know why I kept you until the end?"

From under the enemy's mask, a cold, emotionless voice came out.

"Viper" looked up in astonishment, but saw that his enemy did not give him the last blow, but turned around and walked slowly towards the door of the room.

Why did you keep me until the end... "Viper" began to repeat this question in his mind.

He soon got the answer.

The mysterious enemy had walked to the door, raised his arm, and gently turned the handle.

"Only you, hehe... Only you, it's impossible to hurt me..."

He left this last sentence, then opened the door and walked out alone.

What does it mean...? "Viper" was a little confused.

But... he just let me go like this? Just like this...

A lucky thought emerged in Viper's mind, and he was just about to feel lucky for his escape from death.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from Viper's ears, and countless tiny, terrifying, and weird tides appeared in front of him at the same time.

- Demon spiders! Colorful demon spiders! All colorful demon spiders!

At this time, Viper could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, and he began to struggle violently, trying to escape from this visible hell.

However, the frenzy of demon spiders was faster than his movements.

They quickly climbed up the body of "Viper", and their sharp teeth began to bite his flesh and blood crazily, and injected a large amount of fierce poison into his body.

“Ah…ah…ah…” “Viper” was quickly overwhelmed by the pain. His wailing gradually weakened, and finally completely disappeared.
