Chapter 370 Start Killing (4000)
Something unexpected happened to Kaxiu.
He originally thought that the holy spring water was just a unique life energy that could be used to strengthen the body and nourish the spirit. However, he never expected that drinking a certain amount of holy spring water to condense the holy marks would actually have an effect on the fighter's spirit!
Although it is not clear what is going on for the time being, there is one thing that does not need to be questioned. More holy spring water must be obtained.
Not only to restore strength.
But also for the higher level changes of the secret martial arts boxing.
Kaxiu had a hunch that this holy mark born from the holy spring was definitely a good thing, at least for the Nandou boxing.
In the end, he studied and tested it again. Then he called the doctor of the sanatorium and expressed his intention to be discharged.
After an examination, Kaxiu left the ward smoothly.
Before leaving the sanatorium, he found a mirror.
In front of him was a young man about 1.75 meters tall, with a slender figure and frail body, the common weak body of an illusionist.
Bai Kui's appearance was outstanding, and it could be called exquisite. The blue peach eyes are narrow and long, like a lake with light waves. The nose is straight and the corners of the mouth are naturally upturned, giving people a kind of deep meaning that seems to be smiling but not smiling. The facial contours are soft and yin.
Especially the blue sunflower pattern under the right ear, which contrasts sharply with the cold white skin, giving it a sense of evil charm.
The half-long hair, golden in color, has already covered the earlobe.
Bai Kui was born with a good appearance, no wonder he had several confidantes in subsequent memories. Of course, Bai Kui is still not as handsome as Ka Xiu, after all, that is the handsomeness after the transformation of the golem secret weapon.
Five minutes later, a figure walked out slowly at the door of the sanatorium. It is nine o'clock in the morning and the sun is very strong.
The temperature in summer is very high, and the green plants deliberately planted on both sides of the road are more and more lush, and there are occasional signs of wilting leaves.
Ka Xiu walked towards the direction of the organization headquarters in his memory.
It is now the end of the Red Le Empire, and the walls and buildings on both sides also have a strong style of that period. For example, the colors tend to be bright yellow and blue, and the stripes tend to be square.
At a glance, you can often see the pointed eaves on the top of some buildings, or the religious symmetrical patterns on the doors and windows. The view turns to the street, passers-by dressed in old-fashioned clothes hurriedly passed by, and occasionally there were carriages driving.
Kaxiu looked and walked towards his destination.
Soon, he came to the depths of the sixth district of the imperial capital. Just like the barracks, a large area of buildings was divided into restricted areas.
Only those who show the badge of the members of the Dark Hunter Organization can enter.
Kaxiu naturally had no obstacles and went straight in along the main road. As he got closer to the headquarters, the small yellow-gray tiles turned into large floors, and the walls on both sides became higher.
A minute later, he passed through a semicircular arch.
The environment in front of him suddenly became clear, and it was a clean and tidy fountain square with flower beds planted with green trees and red flowers.
This is one of the four intersections of the headquarters of the Dark Hunter Organization.
In addition to this square, there is another square in the center of the headquarters. It is a transportation hub with main roads leading to different areas. They are the logistics department of the agency, the Holy Mu Cathedral, the weapons workshop, the hunter hall, and the headquarters building.
These are the five most important buildings. In addition, there are some other areas, such as the training camp exercise room.
In addition, there is a temporary living area in the area where the hunter hall is located, which is used by hunters who have settled or are waiting for tasks to rest. This is the area that Kaxiu came to when he entered the headquarters.
He wanted to thoroughly understand the internal situation of the Dark Hunter Organization.
Coming to a building similar to an apartment, Kaxiu took out Bai Kui's hunter badge and asked the front desk to register a room. Then, he walked directly to the hunter hall.
As soon as he entered the front door, a young man came towards him. Seeing that the other party was staring at him, Kaxiu frowned slightly.
He thought that inexplicable trouble was coming.
Unexpectedly, the young man had a good attitude and asked about the situation of his last group mission. And how did one of the female hunters named Sana die? What killed her?
It was a piece of cake, and Kaxiu naturally answered them one by one.
The young man nodded in thanks, and then walked out of the Hunter Hall. He seemed to be a close friend of the female hunter Sana. He asked Kaxiu these questions perhaps for revenge, or just to know an answer. But none of this mattered to Kaxiu.
He came to the Hunter Hall to choose some tasks.
Soon, Kaxiu came to a large hall. There were also more than a dozen hunters standing quietly in the hall, looking at a wall. On the surface of the wall were white papers posted.
The papers wrote various tasks, danger levels, and rewards.
If you want to do that task, just take down the white paper and go to the task exchange office to register. The staff there will give you detailed intelligence information about the task.
Kaxiu glanced at the left side of the first floor hall, where he just came in. There is a spiral brass staircase that obviously leads to the higher level of the task hall.
Bai Kui is a "C" level hunter, so naturally he is on the first floor, taking on the simplest tasks with the lowest level "D" level hunters.
"C" level and "D" level hunters are collectively referred to as black copper level hunters.
"B" class hunters are called Baiyao class.
"A" class hunters are called Dark Gold class, a total of fifteen people. Six of them are special, five shadow hunters and one holy hunter.
Based on past experience, Kaxiu speculated that this so-called dark gold hunter might have already approached the fighter level. And these six shadow and holy light hunters might all be fighters.
It will be easier to push down.
The white obsidian hunter corresponds to the middle and late stage of the boxer, and the black copper hunter corresponds to the boxer and the early stage of the boxer. This is a rough and simple judgment made by Kaxiu based on Bai Kui's strength.
While thinking, he scanned some of the tasks on the task wall. The titles were all in bold fonts.
"Investigate the serial perverted murder case in the fourth district of Florence!"
"The disappearance of passers-by at night in the first district of Florence!"
"Dark creatures are suspected to appear in the sewers of the third district..."
These tasks are basically extraordinary events within the city of Florence, and do not involve other areas. The difficulty is obviously very low, after all, the headquarters is in the sixth district of Florence.
Kaxiu glanced at them, mainly looking at the rewards at the end of each task. One unit, 0.5 units, one unit... There are few tasks that can exceed two units of holy spring water. Some even don't have spring water, but other things.
For example, money or something.
Among them, there are some exceptions. That is a team-based task, which can generally be issued across a level. That is to say, it includes the Black Bronze level and the White Obsidian level to form a hunter team.
The last mission of the original owner Bai Kui was like that.
Kaxiu stood there, looking at the rows one by one, without making any expression. The hunters next to him changed one or two groups, but he was still motionless like a log. Kaxiu didn't turn around until a female figure appeared at the entrance of the hunter hall.
The person who came was the girl Rose who had just met not long ago.
As a Black Bronze hunter, it is not possible to receive some well-paid tasks in the task hall. Even if you can accept three tasks at the same time, the holy spring water is not enough for Kaxiu. He is now very interested in the holy marks.
And the holy marks are a phenomenon that only appears when the body drinks the holy spring water to a certain degree of saturation. Every holy mark on the back of the hand means that you have drunk a considerable amount of spring water.
Therefore, the amount of holy spring water must be large.
Kaxiu didn't want to waste time and dawdle in the black bronze level mission. So he directly used another method.
Rose is a white obsidian hunter, and can take missions in the second floor lobby, where the mission rewards are more generous than those on the first floor.
Of course, Kaxiu didn't mean that Rose would take the white obsidian level single-person mission on his behalf, and then Kaxiu would do it himself. What he meant was that Rose would take the white obsidian level team mission and then recruit team members. The only person to be recruited is Kaxiu.
That is, two people will complete a multi-person team mission.
So as to achieve the greatest efficiency and the most generous reward.
Rose still takes her own share, and Kaxiu takes all the other shares. If the team mission originally requires a nine-person team, the reward is nine portions of holy spring water. Now it becomes two people, Rose takes one portion, and the remaining eight portions are all Kaxiu's. This is good for both parties. Rose doesn't seem to have taken any advantage, but in fact, completing the mission safely is the biggest advantage. She doesn't need to do anything at all, just leave everything to Kaxiu. Moreover, this way, the task will be completed very quickly.
Kaxiu told Qiangwei about this matter an hour ago.
Qiangwei agreed of course, and she still wanted to become Kaxiu's apprentice. And taking the task was just a piece of cake.
"Master Bai Kui, just wait for me for ten minutes." At the staircase of the Hunter Hall, Qiangwei put one hand on the brass handrail.
A pair of bright big eyes looked straight at Kaxiu.
"Just call me by my name, go."
Kaxiu ended the conversation and repeated the question of the title. He found that the girl named Qiangwei in front of him seemed to have a great interest and desire in illusion practice.
That's why he had an unimaginable enthusiasm and respect for Kaxiu, who was suspected to be an illusion master. I wonder what her expression would be when she learned that Kaxiu was simply and roughly activating illusion?
Seven minutes later, a figure came down the stairs again.
Fifteen minutes later, Kaxiu and Qiangwei walked out of the Hunter Hall. They received a Baiyao-level team task with the most generous rewards, twenty units of holy spring water, eight people.
Excluding the 2.5 units of Rose, Kaxiu can get 17.5 units of spring water if he completes the task. Compared with the tasks on the first floor, the rewards are completely different.
It takes more than a dozen tasks on the first floor to be comparable to the second floor.
Returning to the hunter's temporary residence, Kaxiu recalled the content of the Baiyao-level team task. What a coincidence, it was the new version of the previous task of the original owner Bai Kui after the reset.
"Abandoned Knight Castle"
Location: Far County, Rika City, ten kilometers east of the suburbs.
Time: Within twenty days.
Information: There is a group of dark creatures with deformed bodies in the Knight Castle, and there are many Baiyao-level individuals. Half a month ago, a mixed team of seven was defeated. It is recommended that the newly formed hunter team be composed of Baiyao-level hunters.
Reward: 20 units of holy spring water.
In the room, Kaxiu recalled the scene of Bai Kui encountering these dark creatures. Not very strong, no particularly strange abilities, but outstanding physical strength. Even if his strength has not recovered yet, he can still solve it easily.
After completing the mission of the Dark Hunter Organization, Kaxiu can not only obtain the holy spring water, but also obtain the life vibration energy. It will take a while for the body to recover to the point where it can use the spirit. And if the spirit can be used, the strength will recover faster. It won't take long to fully recover the combat power.
Time flies, and it's noon.
Rose with a full set of equipment appeared in the central square of the Dark Hunter Organization. Kaxiu had nothing prepared and was unarmed.
The two did not waste extra time and took a carriage directly to Far County. Far County is very close to Florence.
It is only less than 60 kilometers away.
If the carriage takes the main road, it will only take a few hours.
The sun was strong and hot at noon. On a wide earth-yellow road between the woods, a black carriage drove towards the distance.
It was five o'clock in the afternoon, close to dusk.
Kaxiu had brought Rose to the eastern suburbs of Rika City, where there was originally a small village. But with the appearance of traces of dark creatures a year ago, the entire village was gradually abandoned.
The sky was reddish with clouds, and the afterglow shone on half of Kaxiu's face. He raised his head slightly and looked at the ruined castle halfway up the mountain, his eyes glowing red.
In the real world, Kaxiu wanted to find dark creatures to hunt and devour, and he needed to form his own forces to collect intelligence.
In this time of retrospection, the Dark Hunting Organization he joined was the official extraordinary force of the Empire, which was largely aimed at dark creatures. The relevant information was very abundant.
It seemed that he had killed a lot during this period of time.
Next to him, Qiangwei took a look at the dim sky and the setting sun, turned to Kaxiu and said, "Master Bai Kui, the sun is about to set, and it will be dark in half an hour at most. It may be difficult to perform illusions when the light is not sufficient. Should we find a place to spend the night on the spot, or go to the abandoned village for one night..."
This is the case with illusionists, with many restrictions. The main means is to create illusions for the enemy through vision, which is the most intuitive. Other hearing and smell should be put in the back row.
Once it gets dark, your vision is blocked. The opponent can't see your figure or your illusion movements clearly. The effect of their spiritual guidance will be greatly reduced, and they may not even cause any harm.
So, Qiangwei told Kaxiu to come again tomorrow.
But Kaxiu didn't want to waste that time. He cast illusions directly through his spirit, which is different from the rules and logic of normal illusionists. It is not affected by light.
What's more, a small nest of dark creatures, how can it last until night? Not to mention half an hour, a few minutes is enough.
"You stay here, I'll be back soon..."

The input method cramped today, and it was stumbling to death.
