Su Xiao can be sure that he will meet other spell witches in the future. Besides, this kind of witch is too weird. He will inevitably leave hair and blood stains when he fights. Lose.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao decisively chose reward b. In this world, he can get many treasure chests, and there is no shortage of this golden treasure chest.
"Is this the end?"
Melody stepped forward to check the body of Sheng Yan. This notorious ogre witch actually stood up like this. Before she died, she even called for help. It seemed that she saw something terrifying.
Due to the previous loud noises, the surrounding civilians had turned into birds and beasts, and a soldier wearing scales rushed over. After initially confirming the situation, these soldiers retreated, sealed off the surrounding area, and dispersed all civilians within a few hundred meters, forming a The line of defense is not to prevent Su Xiao from escaping, but to help Su Xiao block it. Witch hunters have a high reputation among the people.
Su Xiao came to the corpse of the feast. He extracted blood, palm prints, and picked up a few pieces of black crystals from the corpse. With these three items, he could prove that he had killed the witch of the feast, Keith.
"Your reward."
Su Xiao threw a small bag of gold coins to Melody. Compared with promises, heavy gold coins are more likely to generate motivation.
The fact is indeed so, Melody smiled like a flower, and stuffed the bag of gold coins into her bosom.
"There should be finances in the feast's residence, leave it to me."
Melody ran into the warehouse quickly, and Bubuwang not far away showed a smirk. After entering the feast's lair, it almost vomited out.
five minutes later.
"vomit~"
Melody leaned on the wall with her body bent, and pressed her chest with one hand, and teardrops as big as beans rolled down, which was caused by retching.
"Even if it's the black witch, the feast is too cruel, this guy deserves to die here!"
The scene witnessed a few minutes ago made Melody suspicious of her life. There were several soldiers near her who were also retching.
"Mr. Witch Hunter."
A white witch with an ugly complexion spoke. Her name is Ani Claudia, the lord here, and the big man Melody wanted to pretend to be.
"This is my thank you."
Ani Claudia handed over a wooden box. While she was speaking, the soldiers had already begun to dispose of the remains under the warehouse, and the crying of the family members of the deceased could be heard endlessly.
Soon, the perimeter of the blockade was full of civilians. After confirming that there was no magic mechanism underground, Su Xiao walked out of the warehouse.
Just after walking into the crowd, a 5 or 6-year-old girl blocked Su Xiao's way. She looked up at Su Xiao, her big eyes were very pure.
"For you to eat."
The little girl handed over an apple-shaped fruit.
"Thank you," Su Xiao slowly disappeared into the crowd after taking it
In front of the carriage outside the city, Melody crossed her arms and looked at Su Xiao with a smile.
"How about it, it feels good to be admired."
"It's not me that those common people admire, but witch hunters. That is the honor of witch hunters."
"The feast is notorious. There are not a few white witches and witch hunters who died at her hands. Besides, you are not a witch hunter."
"Who knows, stop talking nonsense and continue on your way."
Su Xiao entered the carriage. Although he is a witch hunter in name, he has his own purpose, which is a bit different from those witch hunters who fight for their beliefs. Although they are all doing the same thing, this is the one that Su Xiao accepted. The main cause of shriveled apples.
Witch hunting continues. Su Xiao's next goal is Nick Dodo City. Recently, several witches have come there, and they seem to be secretly preparing for something
A day later, in a deserted rock city.
Green smoke slowly floated up from the charred house. When Su Xiao arrived here, half of Nick Dodo City had already been charred.
In the majestic hall, an old man with a sallow complexion was sitting on the seat. He was covered with a blanket, and several attendants beside him were carrying bottles and cans, giving the old man a sip from time to time.
"Master Witch Hunter, you are finally here."
The old man sat up tremblingly, but after trying several times, he couldn't complete this simple movement.
"Plague?"
Su Xiao stood in front of the old lord.
"No, it's much more terrifying than the plague, it's insects."
The old lord waved his hand, and the attendant on the side brought a glass bottle, and there was a black dragon in the glass bottleA beetle, this thing is about the size of a soybean grain.
"Once bitten by this kind of insect, you will die within 3 to 5 days. Yes, I was also bitten by this little thing."
The old lord lowered his head and signaled his attendants to open his skirt. On his chest, there was a black pattern that looked like a sea urchin. This thing was like a black tattoo.
"I ordered half of the city to be burned. Unfortunately, those little things were not killed. Mr. Witch Hunter, no matter what you do next, please blame me for the crime and avenge my people. It must be them. It can't be wrong, it must be"
The old lord grabbed Su Xiao's clothes, his body gradually weakened, and the attendants on the side turned their heads, tears in their eyes, which shows how popular the old lord is.
"Let me sleep for a while."
"?"
Several attendants were taken aback for a moment, they thought the old lord was dead.
By observing the old lord's symptoms, Su Xiao found that it was indeed not a plague. The thing on the other's chest looked like a mark of magic or witchcraft. This thing was gradually absorbing the old lord's vitality and giving birth to something.
Su Xiao pierced the old lord's chest with his fingers like hooks.
"you!"
The attendants immediately turned red. At this moment, they chose to forget Su Xiao's identity as a witch hunter. The key is to save the old lord.
Su Xiao pulled out his two fingers, and he held an egg the size of an egg between his fingers. There was a living thing wriggling inside this black egg.
With a puff, Su Xiao crushed the black egg, and a sweet smell permeated the air. This thing contains a lot of vitality, so the smell is certainly not unpleasant.
The old lord opened his eyes again, his body was completely weak, but soon, he snored, and he slept very sweetly, his life was intact, but the absorbed vitality could not make up for it.
"Black fish and insects, is the purpose to collect life force? If you infer this way"
Su Xiao got a general idea of ??the situation in 'Nick Dodo City'. There are several elemental witches collecting vitality. The black beetle is called 'Black Fish Bug', which is an aquatic insect that lives in the belly of a fish in the river. After the transformation of the witch, This thing is transformed into a 'collector'.
The modified black fish worm will die immediately after laying eggs. Its young eggs will not hatch, but will continue to absorb the vitality of the host. This kind of young eggs belongs to the form of energy. If it weren't for Su Xiao's Qingsteel shadow ability, he would not be able to catch this at all. thing.
"How many rivers are there in the city? The water flow is gentle and clear."
"There is only one such river"
A young attendant took a step forward and answered Su Xiao's question.
"Where does more than 30% of the water in the city get from?"
Su Xiao was verifying his conjecture. When he was reading books in the library of the Holy Healing Church, he had mastered a lot of knowledge about hunting witches. Witch hunting is not something that can be done with strong combat power.
"More than 70% are."
"Seventy percent"
Su Xiao pondered for a moment, and basically judged the level of the witches in the city. If it was a fourth-stage witch, not to mention that 70% of the drinking water was taken from that river, even if it was only 40%, there would be no living people in the whole city within 3 days. It's that scary.
But there is one thing Su Xiao can't figure out, that is, how could a few third-stage witches have the courage to kill a big city with a population of over 10,000
