Chapter 627: The Situation
Qinlun City, the periphery.
At this time, outside the original city wall, there was already a shanty area like a refugee camp.
This is the retreating northern demon hunters, as well as their families and subordinates, spontaneously forming a certain settlement area.
The Holy Lance's big victory last time, as well as the headquarters' accumulation of prestige over the years, have already planted a deep-rooted consciousness in their minds.
Before the world is destroyed, the headquarters here must be the safest.
All kinds of people poured in with their families, causing the entire Qinlun City to be overwhelmed.
Fortunately, the demon hunters are self-reliant, and soon found a way to support themselves.
Are all the houses in the city full? No problem, just pitch a tent outside the city.
As for the dirty and messy?
Sorry, in this era, most civilian areas basically look like this.
Even though the gathering of many demon hunters brought a lot of pressure to the local law and order, the power of the large number of people still made the demon hunters feel a sense of security.
It's a pity that, in Fang Yuan's view, this sense of security is like soap bubbles, which will burst with a slight prick.
"In troubled times, only by relying on your own strength can you truly ensure safety."
Holding a scribbled map in his hand, Fang Yuan squeezed into the city, searched for a long time in a residential area, and finally found the address left by Joke.
"Although I know he is trying to save rent, but moving to such a remote place..."
He was a little speechless, and stepped forward to knock on the door.
"Hulk! You are finally back."
It was Aunt Sophia who opened the door. Seeing Fang Yuan, her eyes turned red.
"Something happened, why didn't you tell me?" Fang Yuan frowned at this atmosphere.
"What? Hulk, didn't you come here after receiving a note from us?"
Aunt Sofia patted her forehead.
"This damn communication speed, forget it...what happened."
Fang Yuan felt that he should have just missed it, but due to a subtle whim, he might have come a little earlier than they expected.
"It's Imen, something happened to her!"
Aunt Sophia couldn't hide her sadness, and brought Fang Yuan to a room: "Go and have a look."
Fang Yuan pushed open the door, and the first thing he saw was Pete.
This kid has completely lifted the restriction on his right hand. At this moment, he looks like a hungry wolf guarding his own territory, and may rush to fight the intruder at any time.
Of course, after seeing Fang Yuan, his expression finally softened.
"You didn't tell me that this kid is a monster!" Maria said angrily, and it seemed that something unpleasant must have happened between her and Pete: "If Dad didn't let me tell, I just need to go out and shout , countless demon hunters will chop him into meat paste, hum!"
It's a pity that Pete didn't even frown at her threat, but just looked at the woman lying on the bed.
"Imoon..."
Fang Yuan took a step forward.
I saw this young and hearty female thief, who had fallen into a deep coma at this time, her brows were tightly frowned, and her breathing was short. No matter how you looked at it, she looked like something was wrong.
"Uncle Jock has gone out to find a doctor."
Pete stared at Fang Yuan and said something slowly.
"Why did she become like this?" Fang Yuan's eyes shone with a golden light, and his expression was a little strange.
This Aimeng doesn't seem to have been hit by some vicious trick, but it's more similar to... the awakening of blood?
Although she has the devil's blood in her body, it has always been hidden, but now, after encountering some stimulus, she immediately activated it.
For ordinary people, this is good and bad.
Once he can survive, he will become a real blood descendant of the magician, and his strength will increase greatly.
Of course, the activation of the blood is also a dangerous process, and it is also accompanied by the attack of chaotic will. If Aimeng cannot survive, he may even degenerate into a monster!
"It's just that... even I am only now able to activate the blood in her body. How could this happen suddenly?"
Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, then looked at Pete: "Before her accident, did anything unusual happen? For example, did she come into contact with any strange objects or people?"
"have!"
Pete thought for a while and said softly: "My sister met a man with purple eyes at the market. She seemed to be very scared, and she developed a high fever after returning..."
"The man with the purple eyes?"
Fang Yuan glanced at Pete, and saw that when he mentioned the other party, he was also agitated, and he couldn't help but feel the truth in his heart.
There are not many existences that can make even a voodoo corpse feel scared, with natural coercion, even among the night family.
'The demonization has already begun. At this time, it is not a question of whether I want to experiment on her, but if I don't, there is a half chance of Aimon becoming a monster! And, what's more troublesome is that this is Qin Lun, and not far away is the holy mountain! '
He stepped forward and lifted a little sheet.
Immediately, on the skin at the bottom of Aimeng's neck, purple patterns were seen.
A subtle demonic aura has been slowly rippling, getting stronger and stronger.
"It must be transferred immediately, no matter the next experiment or her depravity, it will release a terrifying demonic aura... I don't want to be an enemy of the entire demon hunter!"
Fang Yuan came to a conclusion seriously.
Immediately, Jock barged in: "Hulk...you're back? I called some doctors over!"
"Thank you, but she doesn't need it at the moment."
Fang Yuan closed the door politely, not even asking the other party to go in and have a look.
After all, the doctor who often deals with demon hunters may also be a former demon hunter. If he goes in and finds the abnormality of Imon and Pete, hehe... is that silence? Or silence it?
"Get me a carriage, and I'll take them out of here."
Fang Yuan said in an undeniable tone.
"Okay...okay."
Once he showed a serious look, even Jock didn't refute, but obediently obeyed.
Fang Yuan returned to the house and glanced at Aimeng: "She will be fine, I assure you, and put on your seal, don't you want to be surrounded by a group of demon hunters?"
"Will she...will become like me?"
Pete glanced at his right hand. At this moment, there were suction cups emerging from it, with a strange sense of terror.
"That's just the worst case scenario!"
Fang Yuan said truthfully: "I am sure that she can control the power in her body while retaining her human identity."
"Thank you, sir!"
Pete was silent for a while, and immediately began to put the metal shackles on his right hand one by one.
"Put it on, it was originally prepared for you."
Fang Yuan threw out two armbands: "I call them 'Rings of Concealment'. They are low-level magic weapons. Their only function is to cover up the dark aura on your body. Unless you are face-to-face with the titled demon hunter, you should not be seen through."
After getting ready, he stepped forward, picked up Imon, and got into a carriage with Pete.
"Get out of here, the farther the better."
Accompanied by Fang Yuan's order, the carriage started driving immediately, and left Qinlun City without any danger.
"Um?"
The smooth process made Fang Yuan somewhat unexpected.
"Isn't the devil's intention to stir up her bloodlines to create chaos? A demon with good intentions?"
He had an inexplicable premonition.
The existence that activates the blood in Aimeng's body will definitely be found again.
However, not necessarily malicious.
...
After the carriage left the city, Fang Yuan directly threw out a money bag and drove away the thankful coachman, and drove the carriage by himself onto a small road.
After walking for another half a day, a farmhouse appeared in front of my eyes.
However, the farm was dead silent. The farmers who used to plow the land, the peasant women who worked, and even the children who played, all disappeared. Only a few wild dogs wandered around the village, and all kinds of poultry roamed the streets unscrupulously.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan sighed.
When the demons besieged the holy mountain back then, they mobilized a lot of cannon fodder from nearby.
Although he was hit by a mental spell, there is still hope of being rescued, but what if he has been killed or burned to ashes?
This is the tragedy of being a commoner in troubled times.
Even if you have nothing to do with the world, disaster will come to you one day.
However, Fang Yuan only felt a little emotional, and immediately found a farmhouse, moved Aimeng in, and began to arrange the alchemy circle.
Because he went down the mountain with an ulterior purpose before, these materials were prepared, and Pete next to him was stunned when he saw it.
"Anyway, the blood of the demon in her body has been activated, so there is no need to obtain demon materials. If she does not become a demon hunter, she will even degenerate into a monster!"
Fang Yuan put on gloves for himself, and immediately took out a huge syringe: "Peter, do you want to save your sister? If you want, let me draw as much blood as possible."
This kid not only has amazing willpower, but the most important thing is a kind of alcohol produced in the body, which is the best blood vessel inhibitor.
Otherwise, even if his will is superhuman, he can't confine the voodoo corpse to his right hand, and even tends to become his own weapon.
"bring it on!"
Little Pete was very brave. Even when he saw his blood being sucked out by a large tube, he didn't change color at all.
Instead, it was the changes in Aimeng's body. After injecting a large amount of urgently purified alcohol, it finally stabilized slightly.
"With her will, she still can't defeat chaos after all!"
But Fang Yuan saw the clue.
If it wasn't for him to stop it in time, this female thief might really turn into a monster.
Even, even though she was suppressed at this time, a little scale appeared on her cheeks, and there were even two more bumps on her forehead.
"Demonization?"
Fang Yuan smiled, drew a precise ritual on the ground, and injected Mithril and various materials.
After two hourglass hours, a complex magic circle emerged, shining with mysterious light.
"Although there is no way to reproduce the ancient rituals, there should be no problem with the one I formed with the help of black magic!"
Fang Yuan cheered himself up, and his spirit suddenly lifted: "It's started!"
