Chapter 11 The Animal World
When Hugo entered the state of madness possessed by the blasphemy, whether it was physical, strength, or mental power, he reached a state of peak of his previous behavior, not only freed himself from the control of the storm, but also accurately and quickly found the person who was secretly controlling the storm.
So Hugo did not hesitate to draw his bow and arrows, ready to kill him in one fell swoop.
Since Hugo learned that the Nine Divisions had something to do with Yuan Jing, Hugo's attitude towards the Nine Divisions has changed greatly, except for Zhilan, who is special, and Hugo is not prepared to show mercy to any other hunters.
Black arrows burst through the air, making a piercing hunting sound in the air.
The arrow broke through the raging wind, and the direction of the target did not change in the slightest, as if it were in another dimension.
It was too late, but a deafening roar burst out, and a half-waist of a building dozens of meters away from Hugo exploded, and countless gravel dust spread.
As the dust slowly fell, the wind that surrounded Hugo dissipated, and there was a faint trace of coolness in the air.
Hugo stared at the broken waist of the building, his expression indifferent but equally thoughtful.
The swiftness and power of Shicai's own arrow can completely kill and turn people into pieces, but Hugo also sensed that although his attack completely interrupted the opponent, the aura released by the opponent did not subside, in other words, the opponent was not killed by himself.
"It's kind of interesting. A faint sneer appeared at the corner of Hugo's mouth, and in the next moment his body had disappeared into mid-air, appearing on another path downstairs, where Hugo saw a staggering figure running in a hurry, obviously the other party had dodged his attack, but he was not completely spared.
Hugo still had a sneer on his face, a black long sword had been embodied in his palm, and then his wings spread behind him, and with the advance of a gust of wind, Hugo quickly narrowed the distance with the other party.
The person who fled in a hurry felt the fierce wind behind him, and knew that danger was coming, and immediately he gritted his teeth and turned around.
As a gust of wind gathered, a faint form of wind spear had condensed into her wounds, and when Hugo approached, he used all his strength to pierce the spear towards Hugo.
The other party's reaction was not unexpected by Hugo, if he just blindly ran away, then it would only be certain death.
But her resistance was just a death struggle in Hugo's eyes. Judging from the abilities displayed by the other party, there should be some similarities with Rackber's blasphemer abilities. This ability can be very powerful in some cases, but it can be extremely weak in melee mode.
Hugo swung his sword with his arms outstretched, and the black sword dragged the pitch-black shadow like the giant scythe of death to meet the sharp spear of the wind.
The tangible sword and the invisible spear touched together, releasing a strange popping sound, like a thousand catties of giant gates crushing a cloud of air.
The reason why Chitose Hara called Hugo the "Night King" was not only because of his ability at the time, but also because of the weirdness and strength of his strength.
So far, no one has been able to define Hugo's abilities accurately, and although Hugo himself knew that his power came from the black heart in his chest, he did not know what substance it was made of.
The last time in the consciousness space of the fragment of the stone inscription of Tritogreia, although Hugo saw the "Night King", the consciousness body of the origin of power, but due to the special situation, Hugo did not have time to ask him more about himself in the future, and he thought that the next time he communicated with the "Night King", it may not be what the situation will be.
But no matter what, Hugo, who is now at the peak of his blasphemy possession, is by no means comparable to the other party.
The spear of the wind crumbled and disintegrated as the black sword advanced, and the wind turned into a chill.
At the same time as the wind dissipated, Hugo also saw the other party's face clearly through the surrounding lights, it was a young woman about twenty years old, full of black hair, her appearance was very delicate, and she had the temperament of an oriental beauty.
But this does not affect Hugo's "spicy hands to destroy flowers", at this time in his eyes the other party is just a place that must be killed.
Seeing that Hugo's black sword was about to slash at the neck of the black-haired woman, the latter also gave up the idea of resisting as if he was dead, and subconsciously closed his eyes.
At this moment, a figure rushed from the other side of the path, and its lightning speed even Hugo could not help but be surprised.
In the next moment, the figure had stopped in front of the black-haired woman, and took Hugo's black long sword with his bare hands.
Hearing only a loud sonorous sound, the long sword in Hugo's hand froze, and he couldn't move forward in the slightest.
Hugo subconsciously snorted, being able to stop his long sword with his physical body can be said to be a somewhat incredible thing.
But soon Hugo also reacted, and from the sound just now, his long sword was like colliding with an object like metal, otherwise he would not be in that kind of sound.
Could it be that someone who came to him was also wearing some kind of armor like "Arthur"?
Just when Hugo was a little puzzled, the man had already reached out and passed under the armpit of the black-haired woman, held her body up, and then jumped backwards, and under the force of this jump, he actually withdrew from a distance of nearly seven or eight meters.
Hugo also calmed down at this time, and did not immediately continue to chase him, but gazed at the other party with interest.
Seeing that Hugo was not chasing, the person who came immediately put down the black-haired woman in his arms and asked, "Is there a big problem?"
The black-haired woman escaped death, her spirit was in a trance between the ups and downs, and she just shook her head when she listened to the other party's inquiry.
Seeing this, the visitor exhaled lightly and said, "It's okay, you leave quickly, and I'll leave it here." ”
The black-haired woman's eyes widened and said, "Don't, this person is too much..." Speaking of which, I also had a little past fate with him, and I really want to catch up with the old days at this time. ”
The black-haired woman frowned, but she only nodded in agreement when she looked at the other party's light but unwavering expression, and then the black-haired woman glanced at Hugo vigilantly, and then turned around and fled again.
Hugo stood in place, his huge demonic wings had already folded and faded, and he looked at the young man in front of him, who was also dressed in black, and suddenly felt a little familiar in his heart.
Although he did not know the name of the other party, Hugo was sure that he must have been in contact with him, and not only once.
The young man in black took a few steps forward at this moment, and the distance between him and Hugo was much closer, and then he said, "Hello, Mr. 'Pulsatilla', we have met again. ”
At this moment, the impressions of the past flashed through Hugo's mind, and Hugo suddenly remembered when he had met each other.
The first time was in a dimly lit alley where Sayuri was rounded up by the same terrier.
The second time was in the ruined ruins of Tianying.
One moment Hugo saw the other party was a corpse, and the next time the other party became his enemy.
The young man in black didn't know what Hugo was thinking, and just stated his lines indifferently.
"There were opportunities for us to meet each other head-on, but unfortunately we all missed it in the end, but today I can make up for this regret. Now allow me to introduce myself, my name is Ikawa, and I am now the Hunter Sheriff in the Nine Divisions. ”
"Ikawa..."Hugo muttered the name, obviously this person's name did not appear in Hugo's mind, but the strength shown by the other party just now told Hugo that this person could not be ignored.
Hugo said: "After what you just said, I am also impressed. But if I'm not mistaken, our first meeting didn't seem pleasant. ”
Ikawa nodded indifferently and said, "That's right, in fact, the so-called first encounter should be accurate when you only saw me, because I was already a dead man at that time." ”
Ikawa's words made Hugo more confirmed his memory, recalling the scene at that time, Ikawa should have experienced the same way of death as himself, being pierced through the chest by Sayuri and destroying his heart.
But judging from the fact that Hugo was able to have a conversation with him at this time, Ikawa was not completely "dead" at that time, and it can be said that he was forced to "resurrect" by someone, and Hugo instantly had the answer in his mind.
Immediately, Hugo shook his head and sighed: "I have always underestimated Yuan Jing too much. ”
There is no doubt that Yuan Jing is the "St. Peter" who created miracles.
Ikawa said: "I prefer to call her a doctor rather than call her by her name, and many comrades also call her that, of course, more people like to call her a black doctor behind their backs." ”
Hugo nodded and said, "The latter name is more accurate." After that, Hugo stared at Ikawa and said, "I'm curious about what method Yuan Jing used to revive you, and I feel a rather strange aura on you." Neither blasphemer nor very human. ”
Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Ikawa's face.
Actually, I don't really belong to either of the two. With that, Ikawa stretched out his hand and spread his palm to Hugo.
Hugo saw that there was a black knife mark in the sad part of Ikawa, there was no blood, and no white bones were revealed.
Seeing this, a thought came to Hugo's mind again.
War Righteous Remains!
This devilish technology, which has long been resisted by humans, Hugo was finally able to see it with his own eyes.
Ever since Hugo became a desecrated, the term war has been a frequent part of his life.
After Haruki was defeated and fled in the First Battle of Rooftop, the Metropolitan Police Department of Public Security announced that Haruki was a transplanter of war relics, thus covering up the fact that he was a desecrater.
After the confrontation on Dunke Island later, Hua Lian revealed to Hugo that Zhuang Ze had a team completely formed by the transplanters of war relics, which was the biggest capital for Zhuang Ze to dare to resist Tianying head-on.
Even so, this is the first time that Hugo has seen it with his own eyes and has some sensory awareness.
Ikawa withdrew his palm and said, "How is it?" Hehe, to be honest, I never thought I would be a war transplanter a long time ago, it's like a story from a dark fairy tale. ”
After that, Ikawa looked up at the sky that was obscured by dark clouds and the moonlight and continued, "Of course, my body is not entirely composed of war corpses, and it should also possess some characteristics that a blasphemer possesses. All in all, I'm a monster in this world that is more monster than a desecrater. ”
Hugo frowned slightly when he heard this, and then said: "Listening to your tone, it seems that you are very dissatisfied with Yuan Jing." ”
Ikawa grinned and said, "Are you dissatisfied? maybe, many times I resent her for turning me into this monster form that is neither human nor ghost." But there are times when I am grateful to her because she has given me a new life and allowed me to continue to live. ”
Hugo said: "This kind of life giving sounds more like manipulation, who knows if she did anything to your brain when she resurrected your body." ”
Ikawa smiled, "Who cares? There is indeed one thought in my mind, that is, I love her very, very much, and I can sacrifice myself and give everything for her." I don't know if this was her doing, but I really don't care. ”
Hugo sneered: "Sad. ”
Ikawa nodded and said, "Indeed, you have this qualification to laugh at me. In your perception, perhaps the meaning of life itself lies more in the pursuit of freedom and ideals, and you dare to rebel against everything. But that's not my point of view, in my thinking, the whole human society must operate under some kind of regular order in order to develop, and the reason why human beings are different from animals is not only that they can use fire and make tools, but that they can reasonably control their desires. ”
Hugo sneered: "So you became the minions of the so-called 'hunters'?"
Ikawa said, "My philosophy is not to stand on the side of a single force, but to stand on the framework of humanity as a whole. ”
Hugo said, "So, you chose to become a hunter because we blasphemers have become a destabilizing factor in the whole society?"
Ikawa said: "That's the truth. ”
Hugo said coldly: "Bullshit!"
Ikawa said: "Maybe in your eyes there are 10,000 reasons to rebel against the world, but in my eyes you are just a person who can't control his desires. ”
Hugo said: "In your eyes, my humanity is closer to that of animals?" Ikawa nodded.
Hugo laughed when he heard this, and Ikawa watched Hugo's laughter, his face did not change in the slightest.
After laughing, Hugo's expression returned to coldness.
"It seems that you have been brainwashed by Yuan Jing to a great extent, don't forget, no matter how human beings evolve, their essential definition will not change, and your so-called animal nature will live forever with human nature, just like light and darkness, one will never replace the other. ”
"And whether it is dinosaurs or humans living in this world, animal wildness will always penetrate into society, that is, the law of the jungle!"
Hugo sneered: "Hmph, human society, in my eyes this is just an animal world. ”
