Chapter 500: Following the Clues
In fact, when Anthony left, Duanmu Huai had been following him. Relying on the skills of the Raven Guard, it was certainly impossible for Anthony to discover Duanmu Huai.
To put it bluntly, Duanmuhuai is using Anthony to fish and enforce the law.
Duanmu Huai didn't care about this. After all, the players said that one of the three artifacts in this world is a friend.
Friends are not for cheating, so why keep them?
But now that this guy has come out, Duanmu Huai is naturally not polite!
“——————!!!”
The monster attacked by Duanmuhuai suddenly let out a scream, then stood up from the ground, twitching its nose and facing Duanmuhuai. However, it has not been hit by the SAN value because of this... The reason is very simple, this thing has no eyes at all! Naturally, it is impossible to see Duanmuhuai!
"What the hell is this?"
At this moment, with the help of the light of the flashlight, Anthony could clearly see the appearance of the monster, and suddenly screamed. Under the brilliance of the flashlight, they could clearly see that what was in front of them was a humanoid monster that was almost as tall as a person. Its body and limbs were similar to those of humans, except for its weird head--its head. There is only a mouth on the top, and there is nothing above the nose. It is completely naked and looks extremely weird. Especially when it opens its mouth and exposes its tongue and teeth, it makes people feel even more weird.
The fingers of this monster are very slender, like dry branches, which makes people feel sick.
Not only that, the monster's body swayed, and then it turned into a transparent form again and disappeared into the darkness. Only the sound of rapid footsteps wandered back and forth beside them.
"What should we do now?"
If Anthony was alone, he might be on the verge of collapse at this moment. But luckily Duanmu Huai was still by his side, so Anthony hurriedly got closer to Duanmu Huai, looking around warily while asking.
"Don't worry, they're just a bunch of beasts, just kill them."
Facing Anthony's inquiry, Duanmu Huai seemed quite calm. If anyone else had said this, Anthony would probably not be relieved, but thinking about the scene where Duanmu Huai smashed the opponent out just now... Well, Anthony felt This big man's words are quite reliable.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!!"
At the same time, the monster hidden in the darkness accelerated its pace again and rushed towards the two of them. Then it roared, suddenly emerged from the side of Duanmu Huai, screamed, stretched out its claws, and stabbed Duanmu. Huai’s chest!
"Die!!!"
However, facing the monster's blow, Duanmu Huai roared angrily, then suddenly raised his right hand, punched out, and hit the monster's head directly. Then he slammed it to the ground. There was only a popping sound, and then Anthony saw the monster's head splitting directly on the ground like an apple under Duanmuhuai's fist, turning into several pieces.
The monster wailed, then twitched and became silent.
"……………………"
Seeing this, Anthony was shocked, although he had expected that with Duanmu Huai's physical strength, it would not take too long to deal with such a monster. But what Anthony didn't expect was that this man could be so cruel and completely smashed the monster's head with one punch!
However, before Anthony could breathe a sigh of relief, suddenly, low roars came from all directions again!
"What, what's going on?"
Hearing the roars one after another, Anthony became nervous again.
"Obviously, there was more than one opponent. Maybe it was because I killed one of them, so these guys started to get angry..."
"What should we do?"
Now Anthony also understood. It was obvious that these monsters were like a pack of wolves. If one wolf died, the remaining wolves would certainly not let it go!
"It's very simple."
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai clenched the cane in his hand and swung it suddenly!
"Just kill them all!!!"
"Roar-----!!"
Just as Duanmuhuai said these words, it seemed that the other party understood what he meant. The low roar suddenly turned into a sharp cry. The next moment, dense footsteps sounded from all directions, heading towards Duanmuhuai. He pounced in the direction where Anthony was!
Anthony didn't know how to explain what happened next. He could feel those terrifying monsters surrounding him, and he could even feel the fishy, disgusting and terrifying breath exhaled by the other party. But he couldn't see clearly what those monsters looked like. He could only see Duanmu Huai making a fist in one hand and holding the cane in the other, waving it around while roaring.
However, he didn't look like he was waving randomly. In fact, every time Duanmuhuai waved his cane, Anthony could hear a "bang" sound, like the sound of an animal being hit hard. Then the ear-piercing scream turned into a miserable wail. Duanmu Huai's whole body seemed to have turned into a crazy storm that could not stop spinning, and he seemed to be in the eye of the storm. Looking around, in addition to the torn pieces and the roaring wind swept up by the storm, Nothing is seen, nothing is heard.
"boom!!"
Duanmu Huai swung the cane in his hand again and hit the monster's head. The thick and sturdy cane was like a hammer, directly smashing the monster's head from the middle like a walnut. Then it wailed and fell to the ground without any movement.
"Humph! Trash!"
Duanmu Huai stepped on the monster's body and looked around. With the last monster killed, the whole exhibition hall once again returned to silence. Perhaps because all the monsters were dead, the space that seemed to be closed was restored to its original state, and the lights that were originally extinguished were also lit again.
"Woo... End, is it over?"
Feeling the sudden light, Anthony also opened his eyes and looked around. After seeing the surrounding scene, he couldn't help but take a breath.
On the ground not far from the two of them, there were corpses of monsters with terrifying shapes everywhere. Some of them had their heads smashed, and some were directly torn into pieces. There were dozens of them roughly counting...
Can one person kill them? ?
Anthony looked at the corpses of the monsters on the ground in surprise, and then looked at Duanmu Huai beside him. Although Anthony wanted to help when he was attacked. However, due to the darkness around him and the fact that these monsters were translucent, Anthony had no chance to shoot, and basically Duanmu Huai killed them all by himself.
Unexpectedly, he was so good at fighting.
Although he had expected it, Anthony still couldn't believe it when he saw the corpses in front of him. You know, even if dozens of people were fighting, it would probably not be so easy to kill them, let alone those translucent monsters.
"Are you not injured?"
"It's okay."
Duanmu Huai waved his hand.
"How to deal with these corpses."
"I'll take care of it."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Anthony also hurriedly took out his mobile phone to contact. Generally speaking, the corpses left in such incidents will be completely destroyed. These monsters are no exception, but... It's probably the first time to encounter so many at once.
No, it should be the second time. After all, in the previous file report of Innsmouth, there was a report that hundreds of half-human, half-fish monsters were found.
Hmm………………
Thinking of this, Anthony looked at Duanmu Huai with a strange expression.
Could it be that he killed those people?
If it were any other investigator, Anthony would probably not have such an idea. However, now when Anthony saw with his own eyes how Duanmu Huai killed these transparent monsters hidden in the space, his thoughts suddenly changed.
No matter how powerful those half-human and half-fish monsters are, they can't be more powerful than this, right?
"What's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing."
Seeing Duanmu Huai looking at him, Anthony also coughed awkwardly and changed the subject.
"I have contacted the logistics staff, and they will arrive in a while... So, is this matter resolved?"
"Of course not."
"No???"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Anthony was stunned. He looked around in surprise, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Dozens of them have been killed, and they are not killed yet? How many should be killed?
But soon, Duanmu Huai's words answered Anthony's doubts.
"This museum can't hide dozens of monsters, so it's obvious that they must have been teleported here through a certain door. We must find that door."
"That's right."
At this moment, Anthony also came back to his senses. Indeed, as Duanmu Huai said, this museum can't hide dozens of monsters. They must come from somewhere. If you can't find out where they come from, then it's useless to kill as many as you can here.
So soon, the two began to search again.
Fortunately, perhaps because these monsters were completely destroyed, this time, the two did not spend much time and found a destroyed oil painting in a corner of the wall of this exhibition hall—a monster with no eyes and a bloody mouth was painted on it.
Obviously, this is the monster.
And below this painting, it is written about its origin.
"Empty Ghost"—Donated by Christine Sellers, Department of Art, Miskatonic University.
"Obviously, we have found a clue."
Looking at the title under the painting in front of him, Duanmu Huai said lightly.
