The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Qin Zhibo stood on the open floor, looking at the chaotic creation in the sky in disbelief.

It was a snake, maybe a python, but it was larger than a python and closer to the legendary "dragon".

It is about ten meters long, with a diameter of more than two meters at the thickest part of its body. There are two pairs of flying wings on its back. Its whole body is like black rubber, and it is accompanied by appendages with huge hooks and claws.

Qin Zhibo looked up at the big snake, and the big snake also looked down from high in the sky.

Is this the horror hunter?

This thing is bigger and more terrifying than what Koizumi Hongzi described. It is not ugly, but it is extremely gloomy.

Just like its name, it looks like a hunter stalking its prey. Its eyes, which are very small compared to its body, emit dark red light.

Qin Zhibo: Will -10

On that weird and twisted head, the wide open mouth has two rows of gums and teeth that protrude outward like alien shapes, which is obviously more conducive to attacking prey.

In the bloody mouth, the building bit off from the villa has turned into a cloud of dust, dispersed in the air.

Only the body of the bandage geek Takahashi was the only "real" one. It was chewed repeatedly by those sharp teeth, and dirty blood flowed slowly on the pink gums.

Finally, Takahashi was swallowed, and you can imagine how his broken limbs slipped into the belly of the giant snake.

Takahashi is dead, and too dead to die.

But now the problem is how to send away the invited "god".

Suddenly, the black body of the giant snake began to twitch strangely, and the long and high-speed twisted body actually produced a phantom, like a gray mist shrouding the body.

That weird head was no longer staring at Qin Zhibo, but in another direction under the balcony.

Qin Zhibo thought for a moment and thought it was Suzuki Ayako who had regained consciousness and ran out from the first floor of the villa, allowing the horror hunter to change his target.

Qin Zhibo turned to the balcony and looked downstairs, but did not see Suzuki Ayako running out of the villa.

Instead, a figure was standing in the dim and dusty space.

He put his hands in front of him, and under his palms was a pitch-black cane. His body was a darkness deeper than this space.

That man covered in pitch black!

Qin Zhibo looked shocked, unexpectedly meeting him here again.

Who is he?

Qin Zhibo didn't dare to move and stared at the owner of the body carefully.

For some reason, Qin Zhibo intuitively believed that this unknown existence was a threat to him.

What's even more unfavorable is that the terrifying hunter floating in the air seems to be under his command. In front of the dark man, even the fangs in his mouth are restrained, waiting for the master's orders like a servant.

Suddenly, the dark figure opened its mouth.

The dark teeth were exposed from under the equally dark lips, which made his expression a little hearty, but also a little playful, which was very strange.

Kaka.

The teeth of his upper and lower jaws collided twice, making a clicking sound in this silent space.

Although the principle of making sounds is very simple, it felt like a bone-chilling chill in Qin Zhibo's ears, like fingernails rubbing against a blackboard.

Different from Qin Zhibo's reaction, the terrifying hunter floating in the air seemed to have received some order from the voice.

The giant snake stirred its long body, and emitted a huge and harsh hissing sound from its foul-smelling snake cavity.

Hiss—hiss—

Although the sound was very loud, it did not cause any echo in this unknown size of space.

The giant snake suddenly aimed at Qin Zhibo's body and flew towards him, its height dropped rapidly, and its alien-like giant mouth actually wanted to swallow Qin Zhibo in one gulp!

Qin Zhibo quickly dodged to avoid the attack, and barely managed to roll away when the attack came.

But a big hole was made in the villa by the giant snake, and even a corner of the first floor was knocked open, and the scattered parts turned into dust.

The villa lost most of its structure and began to rapidly disintegrate and collapse.

In just a few seconds, a two-story villa of several hundred square meters was completely reduced to dust floating in the air.

Qin Zhibo jumped to the ground before he lost his footing.

Without the obstruction of the obstacle, Suzuki Ayako also saw the giant snake in the sky and screamed in surprise.

"ah--!"

Even though her screams were very shrill, they still couldn't attract the horror hunter's attention.

The hunter swooped towards the ground, intending to attack Qin Zhibo again.

Qin Zhibo looked around with a solemn expression. At this critical moment of life and death, he could only choose to run towards the dark man.

Since the terrifying hunter was ordered by him, the hunter would definitely not attack him personally.

Now that there is no shelter around, this is the only hope!

Qin Zhibo ran towards the dark man like crazy, while the giant snake behind him kept making loud hissing sounds and chasing him.

Just when Qin Zhibo was less than five meters away from the man, the man leisurely raised his cane and pointed at Qin Zhibo.

Suddenly, Qin Zhibo felt that his body could not move.

After rolling his eyes, he realized that this was not an illusion. His body seemed to be under a restraining spell, and he could not move while maintaining a running posture!

The dark man's face showed a smile again, and his black onyx-like eyes reflected Qin Zhibo's frightened face.

The terrifying hunter behind him was desperately seizing this opportunity and swooping towards Qin Zhibo's back!

If you are bitten by that thing, you will definitely die!

This thought arose in Qin Zhibo's mind, but even so it was of no use.

His body was firmly fixed, and his muscles could not resist this unknown magic.

The huge gap in strength made Qin Zhibo feel a little desperate for a moment!

This kind of despair was only felt when facing Baron Samedi...

Qin Zhibo: Will -25

But at this moment, the dark sky in the space seemed to be torn open by the outside world, and several nearly elliptical light spots shone down.

The light spot shone on the terrifying hunter, and the giant snake's body quickly stopped, screaming and twisting its body, as if hot boiling water had been poured on it.

The giant snake twitched and twisted crazily, its figure gradually blurring, until it suddenly collapsed into a small ball of black material and disappeared completely.

Without the cooperation of the giant snake, the dark man also put down his cane.

As the cane fell, Qin Zhibo's body suddenly unshackled and fell freely to the ground.

At this moment, because he had exerted too much force, his body was temporarily a little weak. He could only lie down and look up at the dark man who was still standing.

"We will meet again..."

"Because I am one of the thousands of incarnations of Nyarlathotep, and I am the lurking chaos."

The rumble of the statement shook his heart, like a demonic sound filling his brain, making Qin Zhibo feel dizzy, with all kinds of indescribable screams lingering in his ears.

After he regained some sense, Qin Zhibo put his hand on the ground and looked around, only to find that the figure of the dark man had disappeared.

The incarnation of Naiya... Latotip?

Qin Zhibo thought of the time when he escaped from death in the hands of Baron Samedi, and he had heard this ancient and taboo name.

Nyarlathotep, the lurking Chaos, the God of Thousand Faces.

Thousands of appearances means no appearance...

Qin Zhibo only belatedly realized at this time, and remembered that Koizumi Hongzi said that the terrifying hunters were the servants of the "faceless god".

The faceless god is Nyarlathotep!

He came into contact with the magic circle that summoned the terrifying hunter, and this was how he accidentally triggered the appearance of Nyarlathotep!

[Congratulations on obtaining 100 Mysterious Mythology Knowledge and Skill Proficiency! 】

The system's prompts just showed that Qin Zhibo's idea was correct.

That dark man is one of the incarnations of Nyarlathotep.

Qin Zhibo twisted his body and sat on the ground with his buttocks, his hands hanging weakly on his sides, and his empty eyes staring into the void.

At the edge of his field of vision, there were signs of tentacle-like dead branches emerging, which was a sign that his willpower was on the verge of collapse.

Nyarlathotep, the God of Thousand Faces...

Being an enemy of such a god is really a dangerous thing.

The key is that Nyarlathotep claims to have tens of millions of incarnations. Maybe he will provoke him without knowing it.

Moreover, he had no clear means to compete with him. The dark palm that appeared when he fought against Baron Samedi last time did not help him this time.

I am being targeted by gods...

Just when Qin Zhibo was thinking about this matter over and over in his head, trying to find a way to redeem himself, several hazy figures came running into the dark space.

Those figures were extremely fast, almost flying past the ground, accompanied by an unpleasant gurgling sound.

A gray dog ​​head first came into view, and then other dog heads stuck out from the darkness.

It's a ghoul!

Although Qin Zhibo is in a bad state now, he can still recognize the types of these monsters. They are the ghouls he has not seen for a long time!

They all have rubbery gray skin and have a stooped body shape. They can walk upright on two legs, but when they are faster, they run on four legs, like wild beasts.

Its most eye-catching feature is the hideous-looking dog head.

Unexpectedly, just after seeing off the King of Hell, another imp came!

And these little devils are a hundred times more difficult to deal with than the King of Hell!

I can't guess what the gods are thinking. They come and go as they please, but these carnivorous monsters will definitely not leave without harvesting something.

Qin Zhibo forced himself to get up from the ground, his nerves tense again, and he was ready to make the final resistance without weapons.

And several kobolds seemed to understand that the "food" in front of them would not obey obediently, and they all bared their teeth and claws wandered around their bodies.

But at this moment, there was a "gurgling" sound in the darkness.

"Gugu--"

"Gulu, Gulu."

The ghouls were startled for a moment, looked at each other, and even retracted the fangs sticking out of their lips.

They retreated to both sides, and another hazy shape came out of the darkness.

This is probably a ghoul too.

The reason why it is "probably" is because its skin is different from the slightly translucent gray rubber of other ghouls. The texture of its skin is opaque and somewhat rough, somewhere between flesh-colored and gray.

Its dog head is also different from the abominable dog heads of other ghouls. The upper and lower jaws of this dog head are not too protruding, and appear to be more restrained, and the skin has fewer wrinkles.

It looks like it has some human characteristics!

Looking at the information floating above his head, Qin Zhibo was even more surprised.

"Matsumoto Ryohei?!"

"Mr. Qin, I didn't expect to meet you here."

The ghoul spoke human language, and it turned out to be fluent Japanese.

"Are you really Matsumoto?"

Qin Zhibo couldn't believe it and glanced at him up and down.

The dashing art gallery director from the past has turned into this image, somewhere between a human and a ghoul.

His bones are slightly stooped and he wears simple clothes, which makes him less abominable compared to other ghouls.

"Why is this happening? You didn't leave suddenly..."

Qin Zhibo still couldn't believe the huge changes in Matsumoto Ryohei, and shook his head in disbelief.

But Matsumoto Ryohei was very relieved and even smiled at ease.

"I wouldn't have believed it before."

"But this is the real me. Whether you believe it or not, this is the fact..."

He looked around and said, "But this is the territory of demons and ghosts, and it's not a good place to talk. Let's get out of here first."

"Come, come with me, my friend, and go up there, and I will keep you safe."

Qin Zhibo thought for a while, he had not completed the task yet, and he still had many things to ask this old friend for advice.

"Okay, but I have to bring others with me."

The "other people" Qin Zhibo mentioned were Hondo Yingyu and Suzuki Ayako.

He looked back and found that Hondo Eyou was still lying on the same spot, but Suzuki Ayako had disappeared for some unknown reason.

Qin Zhibo looked around and couldn't find Suzuki Ayako.

There was no other way, Qin Zhibo could only carry Bentang Yingyou on his back and follow the ghoul team in a certain direction.

…

Following the ghouls around three times in the dark space, an upward stone staircase appeared in front of them.

This is something Qin Zhibo has never encountered before when he explored this space.

The stairs are slightly higher than those normally trekked by humans, and require a long stride to ascend.

It was difficult for Qin Zhibo to use his strength to carry Bentang Yingyou on his back, so he could only tie him to himself with his coat and forcefully carry him on his back.

Originally, Matsumoto Ryohei said that two ghouls could help carry it, but Qin Zhibo was a little worried.

Have you ever heard of beating a dog with a meat bun?

After climbing dozens of stairs, Qin Zhibo, who was almost exhausted, saw a glimmer of light.

At the top of the stairs was a cave, emitting a faint light.

Qin Zhibo thought he had returned to the cemetery behind Suzuki Villa, because he came down from there. Now that he went up from below, he should have returned to the cemetery.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel happy that I was willing to die and live.

But when Qin Zhibo poked his head out of the hole, he found that it was not as simple as he imagined.

The cave is not in the familiar valley, but a dark green plain that exudes endless light.

The plains are dotted with a large number of strange relics from the earth - ancient tombstones.

Matsumoto Ryohei stood next to Qin Zhibo, extending his slender nails to introduce Qin Zhibo.

"Friends, welcome to the dreamland."

The chapter name cannot contain the word "kill". The last chapter was blocked for me.
