Chapter 987 The Demon Hunter’s Mutation

The first ones to notice the abnormality were the large heterogeneous families located on the Greek Peninsula. They discovered that the hunters who were on hunting missions all over the world were missing. Later, investigators reported that they had found the witcher stronghold that had been deserted. , a few days later, the same news came from sanctuaries in northern Europe and North and South America: the witcher was missing.

In Europe, Asia, America, and even in the inaccessible Arctic Circle and the Antarctic region where hunting activities are the most secretive, demon hunters evacuated their positions as if they received the same order at the same time. Due to their weak position in information resources, the Alien Family was unable to determine the evacuation movements of the demon hunters. By the time they reacted, the hunters had disappeared. They could only judge based on the remaining clues that they had evacuated in an orderly manner. Scale transfer. So far, only a small-scale werewolf family in South America has sent out news that they encountered a hastily transferred team of witchers, but those hunters were in a hurry. Although they had obviously captured the werewolf's aura, there was still no outbreak of any kind between the two sides. conflict.

Various reports about "disappearance of hunters" appeared on the desks of patriarchs of heterogeneous families around the world within a few days. Whether they were traditional families living alone in seclusion or shelters huddled together for warmth, they all received this information one after another. The big families sent their most elite investigators to confirm the authenticity of the news, and the death squads returned safely without exception after venturing into areas controlled by demon hunters. They only found some residual traces of magic, and Vacant strongholds left behind after personnel transfers. Then the families who kept in touch began to communicate with each other, and the news spread from shelter to shelter, and eventually, around the world.

The witcher disappeared.

By the time Hesiana called, the Athens Sanctuary had completed a search of the entire Greek peninsula, and the aliens had taken intensive actions that had not been seen in thousands of years - in the days when the Witchers were on the move. They didn't dare to do this here, and the search result was "The hunter has disappeared." Several heterogeneous families in the Asian region are also taking actions on their own. Although their progress lags behind that of the European and American regions, it seems that the results are no different.

Vivian told Hao Ren in detail the news she heard from Hesiana, with a hint of uneasiness in her voice: "I feel like something is wrong."

"Of course this is not right," Hao Ren threw the backgammon pieces on the table. "They can't leave the earth. And you said that a family in South America witnessed the transfer of the demon hunter team?"

"Well, I heard Hesiana said that they are a werewolf family, and they have some connections with the former Hall Finley family, so they can talk to the Athens Asylum." Vivian nodded lightly, "They are with a group of evacuating demon hunters. Got it."

"This means that the demon hunter did not disappear out of thin air, but ran somewhere." Hao Ren touched his chin, "No more information?"

Vivian shook her head: "No. The aliens are at a disadvantage to the demon hunters, especially in terms of intelligence. Because the demon hunters have divided and blocked the entire world, the alien families are basically in a quite closed state, and they can still maintain contact with each other. It's easy to say, but it's impossible to go to the place where the witcher is on guard to get information. Everyone only got the news after the witcher suddenly disappeared, and there was still a big delay in the news. By the way, Hessiana also asked us about What’s going on with the witcher?”

Hao Ren thought for a while: "There's not much movement among the demon hunters here. One is watching TV with his sister, and the other is selling food outside..."

Vivian suddenly glared: "I'm not talking about these two! I'm talking about Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi!"

Hao Ren suddenly reacted after being reminded by Vivian. He slapped his thigh and said, "I'll go find them!"

"Wait, I'll go with you," Vivian said, putting on the coat she just took off. "There will be someone to take care of you on the way."

"No, just walk to the city. It doesn't take much effort." Hao Ren stopped Vivian and pointed to the circle of hungry people staggering around in the living room. "You should cook at home. Look at this A house full of people crying out for food.”

Vivian turned her head and glanced, and the first thing she saw was Lily lying on the sofa, watching TV and stuffing potato chips into her mouth. Noticing Vivian's gaze, the husky girl raised her tail and shook her head: "Hurry up and cook, I'm hungry! What are you two whispering about?"

Vivian's mouth twitched and she nodded to Hao Ren: "...Okay, go and come back quickly."

Hao Ren turned around and patted Doudou, who was still holding the chess piece on the table next to him: "Good boy, Doudou, I'm going out and I'll be back soon."

Just when he was about to go out, "Go" suddenly ran downstairs with a clatter. The silly cat purred and shouted: "Big cat, what are you doing? Go and buy me dried fish?" "

"I just know how to eat," Hao Ren glared at the cat demon, "I'm going out to do some errands."

"Then I'll go with you!" The stupid cat couldn't help but jumped over, with a cat's unique stubbornness and stubbornness on his face, "Eat delicious food!"

Hao Ren thought for a while and realized that the cat was of no use if she stayed at home anyway. It would take a lot of effort to persuade her to stay, so he didn't say anything and just asked the cat girl to change into the clothes for going out. Then the two of them had a great time. He walked out the door and headed straight to the city.

If he was correct, the two "regional demon hunters" Yagyu and Zhao Xi should still be working in the previous shopping mall. He had seen them there at least a month ago when he went shopping in the city.

After Hao Ren went out, Doudou was still holding the chess piece and was stunned for a long time. Then she patted her tail and said, "Dad is really bad at chess! I still have to let him!"

On the other side, Hao Ren, who had already gone out, of course had no idea what his precious fish daughter was talking about. He drove his own car, Beidou Star, and went straight to the city. In a hurry, he arrived at the place where Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi worked when they were living as ordinary people. shopping mall. He still remembered the store where Zhao Xi sold mobile phones, but the facially paralyzed female hunter could not be seen behind the counter.

"Are you looking for Zhao Xi?" Another clerk at the mobile phone counter was a little surprised when he heard Hao Ren's purpose. The young girl with many freckles on her nose couldn't help but look at Hao Ren a few more times. She probably didn't expect that she was usually taciturn. Zhao Xi, who had few friends, actually had an acquaintance. "She hasn't been here for several days. She took a long leave from the boss."

"Take a long leave? When did it happen?" Hao Ren's heart moved. The news that "the demon hunter disappeared" seemed to be being confirmed. "Did you say when she would come back? Where did she go?"

"A week ago, I don't know where she went," the freckled girl said, looking Hao Ren up and down with suspicious eyes, and her tone was a little more wary, "Who are you? Are you looking for something to do with her?"

Hao Ren noticed that the other party was already wary of him, a stranger who suddenly came to ask questions, so he smiled: "I am her friend. I have come here to look for her several times before, but the last few times you Not even here - the girl next to me has seen me."

"Oh, I've seen you. You've been here several times." Another clerk recognized Hao Ren, "But we really don't know where Zhao Xi went. She doesn't usually talk to people, and she never said Matters at home."

"Hmm..." Hao Ren touched his chin, "Do you know that there is a manager named Yagyu on this floor?"

"Manager Liu? He hasn't been here for a few days. It's said that he took a long leave because of something going on at his hometown," the freckled girl from before said, "It's almost like he took a leave together with Zhao Xi."

Hao Ren understood this and nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand. Thank you very much."

After leaving the place where Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi worked, Hao Ren took a breath and was sure of one thing: at least in this city, the demon hunters responsible for garrisoning had left.

But it doesn't "disappear into thin air".

"The two of them left after asking for leave, which shows that they did not leave in a hurry, and they also made plans to come back. Everything was planned. It sounded more like they left calmly after receiving the transfer from their superiors," Hao Ren analyzed, "But I don't know if the demon hunters in other places are the same."

"Go away" Listening to Hao Ren's analysis, he stretched out: "So it's delicious?"

Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, looked around him, and then realized that the only one who could listen to his analysis was this cat, so he slapped his face: "...How the hell did I want to bring you out."

"Because this cat is so cute and adorable. So is it delicious?"

Hao Ren: "..."
