Chapter 68 Bounty Mission: The Murderer of the Massacre

Han Xing observed the corpse on the ground and came to a conclusion.

This should not be the corpse of a child, but another race in this world, the dwarfs.

"Dwarf?"

Han Xing's tone was a little puzzled.

On the side, Zhang Lianmeng looked at him with curious eyes.

Han Xing did not explain, but continued to check the ground around him.

It would have been better if he hadn't looked at it. When he looked at it, he immediately gasped.

The ground of the cave was full of bones of various beasts and humanoid creatures. These skeletons had different features. Some had horns on their foreheads, and some had wings on their backs. The height of the skeletons ranged from two or three meters to one or two meters.

There was no doubt that these corpses were special creatures in this world.

Among them, Han Xing also saw several corpses that had just died not long ago. Their deaths were very strange, and the surface skin was intact, and even a trace of blood could not be seen.

However, the flesh and blood on their bodies seemed to have been drained, leaving only a thin layer of human skin covering the skeleton.

Han Xing turned around and asked, "Does the person you found in the Goblin camp last time look like this?"

Zhang Lianmeng nodded like a chick pecking at rice. Although she was still very scared, she didn't know why Han Xing felt a sense of security next to her.

Han Xing clearly felt that this cave was a bit weird.

And so far, there was no clue to trigger the next step of the hidden task, nor any traces of ancient weapons.

Han Xing began to continue searching in the cave.

After half an hour, they went around in a circle, but found nothing except the skeletons of hundreds of corpses.

However, he did get a little information, that is, the area of ​​this cave is really large.

Conservatively estimated, the diameter is at least more than two kilometers.

And at this moment, Zhang Lianmeng suddenly pointed to the front and said, "There seems to be something painted on the wall."

"Huh?"

Han Xing hurriedly looked in the direction she pointed, and indeed saw some graffiti-like patterns.

Looking closer, Han Xing found that the style of these patterns was realistic, more like murals.

Han Xing walked to the beginning of the mural, which depicted an elf man with pointed ears and slender limbs.

He sat on a high branch, smiling, overlooking a village below.

In the second mural, the style suddenly changed, as if the elf man was bullied by several other elves, trampled underfoot and beaten.

In the third mural, the elf man retreated into his small room, silently shedding tears, and a middle-aged elf with a terrifying face stood at the head of the bed, looking at him with a weird smile.

In particular, the deep pupils of the middle-aged elf were painted very vividly, and Han Xing could feel the creepy feeling from the mural.

The fifth, sixth, and even dozens of murals behind were all pictures of the elf boy being bullied.

From his youth to his youth, the elf man had been bullied by other elves, and his temperament became more and more gloomy.

But the strange thing is that in each picture, there is a middle-aged man with a scary face, hiding in the corner and watching silently.

Until the 30th mural, the elf man knelt beside his bed, and lying on the bed was the middle-aged elf who often appeared in the picture.

Looking at the dying appearance of the middle-aged elf, the elf man not only did not feel the slightest heartache, but showed a relieved smile.

However, even after the elf died, his situation did not seem to get better.

He still endured the insults and beatings of other elves.

And what's more terrifying is that the elf man still felt that the pair of scary eyes were staring at him.

That guy, didn't he die a long time ago?

He thought so.

Until the 53rd mural, an elf girl with a gentle smile on her face appeared. She was like a beam of light shining into the darkness, and also illuminated the life of the elf man.

She was friends with him for a short two days, and then she left.

Whenever the elf man felt that he could not hold on any longer, he would think of the smiling face of the elf girl, and the corners of his mouth would unconsciously reveal the same smile as hers.

However, when he saw the elf girl appear again, she had walked with an elf who often bullied him. The psychological defense line that the elf man had finally built was torn apart at this moment.

He ran to question the elf girl, but was ridiculed and beaten in return.

The elf man fell to the ground covered in blood. Indistinctly, he seemed to see the shadow of the middle-aged man appear again, and squatted and whispered in his ear.

The elf man went crazy.

He returned to his room, drew a strange magic circle, and then cut his wrist and let the blood flow.

In the magic circle, a phantom of a terrifying existence appeared. The elf man knelt respectfully to him when he was dying, and he also gained powerful power.

The elf man went to find the girl with a smile on his face. He thought that after he gained power, he would be able to regain her recognition.

However, the girl was so scared when she saw him that she stepped back repeatedly. Her eyes were as if she was looking at a monster.

It was only then that the elf man saw what he looked like now.

His dark brown hair began to fall off in clumps, and then his eyebrows, which fell off with a slight touch. In the end, even the hair on his body fell off completely.

He stood on the street like a naked monster, accepting the strange looks of his peers.

However, the changes were far from over.

After the hair fell off, his nails also began to fall off, and sharp claws grew. At the same time, his nose became as swollen as that of a grunt.

Not only that, his arms were also attached to his body, and a pair of huge flesh wings grew.

At this moment, he changed from a noble elf to a hideous bird.

The elves quickly called in guards to hunt this monster.

When the sharp spear pierced his chest, the elite man widened his eyes, and the fear of death made him subconsciously wave his flesh wings.

At this time, he found that he actually flew up.

The elf man began to spread his wings and run wildly, his eyes full of hatred and anger.

He rushed to a secret place in the center of the town, carried out a huge golden cannon from it, and began to frantically wash the town.

Countless elves died tragically under his artillery fire, and the town turned into a sea of ​​fire.

After doing all this, the elf man turned and ran away.

And he was naturally wanted by the elves.

In the process of fleeing, the elf man was desperate and found an ancient magic circle.

And the place where the magic circle leads to is called the Land of the Gods Abandoned.

That place seems to scare the strange bird.

However, in order to survive, he finally opened the teleportation array.

At the end of the picture, the elf man found a suspended island and went into the forest.

But what he didn't notice was that there seemed to be a black shadow that followed him to the island.

...

After reading this, Han Xing seemed to understand something, and he seemed to have some bad premonitions in his heart.

He said in a serious tone: "It seems...something went wrong."

Zhang Lianmeng looked nervous, and her body was shaking slightly, "What went wrong?"

Han Xing frowned, "So far, we haven't found any clues about the hidden mission."

"Speaking of which, when I touched the metal fragment, the system didn't say what this was a hidden mission, but just said that the metal fragment could be used to open the stone door."

"In other words, what the NPC told you might be false, and we were fooled!"

"What?" Zhang Lianmeng trembled, her face full of disbelief.

And at this moment, a pair of red eyes suddenly appeared in the depths of the dark cave.

From time to time, there were terrifying wind sounds coming from behind.

Han Xing obviously realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "There is a monster, run!"

But now, it's too late.

A terrible monster came from behind with a whistling wind.

Han Xing quickly took out the legendary quality Moon Crown Longbow and instantly entered combat mode.

But at this moment, a terrible hurricane hit him head-on.

Huh——

Han Xing and Zhang Lianmeng were blown back more than ten meters by the hurricane.

The dark flint torch fell out of his hand.

With the fiery red light, Han Xing finally saw the creature that attacked them.

It was a terrifying bird with a body size of more than two meters, a pair of huge flesh wings, and no hair on its body.

It was exactly the same as the monster shown on the mural.

Just at this time, the system prompt came.

[You have found the hiding place of the elf traitor Caleb, and the bounty mission "City Massacre Murderer" is automatically triggered. You can complete the mission according to your own choice. ]

[Option 1: Kill the strange bird Caleb, take its head to the Elf King's Capital, and collect the bounty. ]

[Option 2: Go to the Elf King's Capital, tell the Elf Guards where Caleb is hiding, and help them capture Caleb. ]

Please note: Because you are in the "Land Abandoned by the Gods", the "Elf King's Capital" map has not yet been opened, and this mission cannot be completed for the time being.

"Damn, this is the real hidden mission!"

Han Xing turned around suddenly and met the monster's bloodthirsty eyes.

Without thinking, he shot a wind-chasing arrow.

Ding!

Seeing the arrow coming, the strange bird flapped its wings, and a hurricane rose, blowing the arrow aside.

This arrow did not have any effect, and Han Xing's heart sank.

It was at this time that he finally saw the attributes of this monster.

[Strange Bird Caleb (One-star Leader-level Creature)]

[Level: lv10]

[Attributes]: Strength 94, Agility 132, Spirit 105 (-30), Constitution 76 (-30)

"It's actually a level 10 leader-level creature!"

Han Xing's face changed wildly!

...
