Chapter 171 Friendly Questions
Dick sat up suddenly, his eyes glowing in the darkness. He looked around at the rough castle wall and said self-deprecatingly, "It seems that I had a dream."
Then, he heard the cry of some monster downstairs, which was almost the same as the sound made by the royal griffin in the dream.
Dick tried to twist the flesh of his right hand with his left hand.
"Hiss, it hurts. Barbara is not here either, which means it is not an illusion. What's going on?"
Dick quickly came to the weapon rack, picked up the steel sword and shook the sword body. The sword energy attached to it. He went out with his upper body naked and found that the doors of several rooms next to him were also opened. Russell, Harden and Raven just walked out, all with puzzled faces.
Dick was about to ask what happened, and Russell looked over in disbelief.
Russell was the first to speak in surprise: "Dick, you actually mastered the sword energy?
"Okay, now your strength should be much stronger than the two of us. You should be the fifth person in the Demon Hunter Cult who has mastered the sword energy. "
Dick swung the sword again to cancel the sword energy, and then said: "It doesn't matter. Should we go downstairs first and find the source of the sound?"
Several people nodded.
Dick quickly came to Riven and said: "Riven, you can be the last one of us, otherwise if there is an emergency, I won't be able to take care of you. "
Then, Dick walked in front of the others and went downstairs first.
They searched for the source of the sound and found that it came from the basement.
Dick shook the sword again, filling it with sword energy, and slowly and cautiously opened the iron door of the basement and looked inside.
In the corner, Alexander, wearing a hood, was huddled in the corner, shivering.
He looked around the wide basement and suddenly raised his head, only to see a monster with trembling wings floating in the air near the ceiling.
When the monster saw Dick had found him, its wings shook more violently, and gray-yellow feathers kept falling, trying to rush out of the door.
Dick stared at the monster for a long time without drawing his sword. At the same time, he blocked the actions of the two fellow demon hunters behind him who wanted to attack. He slowly said, "Are you... Carter? "
"Master Dick..." Carter still flapped his wings, not daring to descend.
He was naked from the waist up, and there were two needle holes on his chest with rubber tubes that had not been removed. Blood was constantly oozing from the tiny holes in other parts of his body, which should have been caused by the violent removal of the needle holes.
"When did you wake up? You...what's going on?" Dick asked again.
"I just woke up not long ago, and then I found that I turned into a monster. I actually grew two wings. Master Dick, what should I do? Please...please don't kill me."
Russell and Harden looked at each other and took back the long swords in their hands, while Dick simply threw his long sword in a corner and raised his hands to indicate that he was not a threat.
"Child, come down, we won't hurt you."
"You promise?" Carter shrank back.
"If we really want to hurt you, even if you keep flying in the basement, you can't beat our three elite demon hunters. However," Dick still put his two fingers together to swear, "I promise not to hurt you. "
Hearing this, Carter flapped his wings and slowly landed. Seeing the confused look in the child's eyes, Dick sighed and stretched out a hand.
Carter closed his eyes in fear and stepped back.
Dick did not say anything, but just covered his head with his big hand and gently stroked it, "Don't be afraid, it's safe now."
"Is it safe? Then, then I have become a demon hunter now?"
Dick looked back at Riven, who also looked a little surprised, but still nodded slowly:
"It should be the dragon's tears potion that accelerated his fragrant grass trial process, and he has a good root bone, so he should have completed the transformation. Look at his eyes, and they have become cat eyes like you. "
"Then what's the matter with his pair of wings like a griffin? "
"I don't know, I went to bed early last night. Only Alexander was guarding him. "Dick looked at the warlock apprentice in the corner.
Alexander had already stood up. Seeing that several demon hunters were looking at him, he hurriedly said:
"I don't know anything. It's possible that the mountain god part of the herbal decoction of the Lynx School has taken effect, so his body has become a monster."
Dick was about to ask, but Carter on the side said: "Master Dick, I, I'm hungry."
"You don't have to call me Master. From now on, you will be my junior brother. Just call us by our names."
"Okay, Dick, I'm hungry."
Dick tried again, "What do you want to eat? Do you want to eat fresh raw meat?"
"Why should I eat raw meat? I want to eat grilled pork chops, which you eat at noon. Although I am in the basement, I can smell the aroma of Master Harden, oh, the delicious food made by Harden. "
Dick was relieved after hearing this and looked at his two fellow brothers.
The three of them nodded in unison:
If Carter is not interested in raw meat like the monster, it means that his mutation only produced an extra pair of wings, and there are no other side effects.
"I remember there are some ingredients in the kitchen, and they will be ready soon." Harden said with a smile.
"Carter, then you go out with the two brothers first, and I will chat with Alexander for a while." Dick said with a warm face.
Then several people took Carter out of the basement. Seeing that everyone had completely disappeared at the stairs, Dick closed the iron door, then came to Alexander with a frosty face and looked into his eyes without saying a word.
Being stared at by the cat's eye that was almost a slit, Alexander couldn't help but feel a little flustered: "Dick, what are you going to do?"
Dick suddenly stretched out a hand, pinched Alexander's delicate neck, and pushed it hard behind the wall. With a "plop", some small gravel fell from the rough rock cracks behind him.
Alexander's face flushed, and he tried hard to use both hands to move the thick hand pinching his neck, but it was in vain. The big hand did not move at all.
Dick just watched Alexander struggle in pain:
At the beginning, his face was flushed, and he was resisting himself with all his strength.
As time went by, his eyes became blurred, his pupils turned up, and only the whites of his eyes were exposed like a dead fish, and his hands slowly drooped down.
Only then did Dick withdraw his hand, and Alexander immediately collapsed to the ground, gasping for air and coughing hard.
After a long while, he stood up in fear, and said with trembling lips: "Dick, what do you want to do?"
"Now I ask you, during this period you are not allowed to ask me any questions, nor are you allowed to say any extra words, understand?"
"Understood."
"Snap!"
A crisp slapping sound exploded in the basement.
"You!"
"Snap!" Another loud slap.
