Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 3 Companions
"It's time to finish this hunt. ”
The purple-eyed man said in the direction where the monster was, and then casually glanced at Xia Zuo and Andrew next to him, and sighed lightly, his gaze stayed on Xia Zuo's body for a while.
"I didn't expect to meet a companion here. The man in black with purple eyes smiled at Xia Zuowei.
Companion?!
Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, Xia Zuo glanced at the purple-eyed man carefully, but he still couldn't see that he knew the purple-eyed man.
Of course, if you have to say it...... I may know a certain aura from him, and it always feels a little like my uncle's......
Xia Zuo couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Andrew, who was on the side, seemed to relax because of the relief of the crisis, leaning against the wall, his gaze resting on the purple-pupiled man, and after a short moment, he withdrew his gaze without a trace.
"But...... Let's get rid of this prey first, where are you going to run this time?" The mysterious man with purple eyes glanced at the monster that fell to the ground next to him, and approached the monster named "Tooth Blood".
"Ah......hh Damn ......" the tooth roared in anger, then jerked up from the ground and quickly rushed to the window, trying to escape from the house.
The purple-pupiled man's eyes narrowed slightly, and in a flash, he intercepted the tooth blood seed at a speed that Xia Zuo and Andrew couldn't observe, and stretched out a hand in time to grab the tooth blood seed's right arm.
"Ahh......hh
The purple-eyed man seemed to have completely ignored the strange nature of the previous ghost-like nature of this tooth and blood species, and could directly touch it and even cause damage to it.
"It's really terrifying, but I won't let the tiger go back to the mountains this time. The purple-eyed man smiled slightly, a strange black-purple light seeped out from his arm, and then his arm shook hard, smashing the tooth blood seed to the ground, and there were several more conspicuous cracks on the floor, and the tooth blood seed screamed, and the black blood splashed from the tooth blood seed to the ground.
"That's amazing...... Xia Zuo exclaimed from the side.
Andrew looked at the purple-eyed man dumbfounded, and after a while he came to his senses, Andrew secretly said to Xia Zuo, "Little Xia Zuo, this person's strength is so terrifying, could it be that he is also a monster in human skin? ”
"Just like that monster......" Andrew couldn't help but glance at the monster tooth and blood seed that was being played with by the purple-eyed man in his palm.
"No, it won't. Xia Zuo suddenly smiled, Xia Zuo suddenly remembered the old hunter's posture, "Uncle, he...... But it's stronger than this man......"
"It's not that he has the power of a monster or a monster who kills people's flesh and blood, the key is to see what kind of heart he has. Xia Zuo smiled, "That's what Uncle said...... He's going to save us, he shouldn't be bad, and besides, he looks so much better than that monster that we shouldn't have a chance to escape if he really wants to target us, right?"
"That's what I said. Andrew couldn't help but shrink his neck, and then suddenly remembered something, and asked Xia Zuodao.
"Speaking of Xia Zuo, he seemed to say that you were his companion just now, right?
"No, I can confirm that I don't know him. Xia Zuo was convinced that although Xia Zuo had wandered around when he was young, he had only a handful of friends during this time.
Later, Xia Zuo was adopted by the old hunter, and since then he has lived in the mountains for a long time, and the people he knows are basically limited to people from the villages near the mountains, and there is no one who knows anyone like the purple-eyed man.
"So I'm waiting for him to solve my problem. Xia Zuo looked at the purple-eyed man, then patted Andrew, "Let's wait for him, I don't think he needs our help." ”
The purple-eyed man's side.
The purple-pupiled man saw that the tooth blood seed was powerless to resist, and seemed to be about to take out something, however, before the purple-pupiled man took out the thing, the tooth blood seed suddenly oozed a black mist from his body, and the mist wrapped the tooth blood seed, and the eyes of the tooth blood seed suddenly lost their light, and in the next second, the body of the tooth blood seed seemed to be about to fall apart in an instant.
Just before the body of the tooth blood species was about to be completely wiped out, the purple-eyed man took out a small black cage that seemed to be made of metal out of nowhere, and quickly opened the cage.
The cage seemed to release a suction force, trying to suck the tooth blood into the cage, but the speed at which the tooth blood seed body fell apart was too fast, and the cage only had time to suck a small part of the tooth blood into the cage.
The body parts of the tooth blood species that were sucked into the cage suddenly shrank and were firmly imprisoned in the cage.
"Oops...... It's a pity. The purple-eyed man shook his head regretfully, then smiled and put the cage away.
"I've been waiting for a long time. Only then did the purple-eyed man turn his attention to Xia Zuo and them.
"It's good that you're here this time, otherwise if this tooth and blood species preys on ordinary humans and regains its strength, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to do. The purple-eyed man smiled.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot to introduce myself. The purple-eyed man tidied up his clothes a little because of the battle just now.
"My name is Fred Tanagus, a member of the Soul Hunter Team 'Night Veil', please take care of me. Fred smiled.
Fred had just finished introducing himself, and Xia Zuo was about to ask Fred about other things, when Fred suddenly paused, Fred took out a small notebook from his body, and one page of the note oozed a faint light, Fred turned the polished page and glanced at it, and then closed the note.
"I owe you a favor this time, and next time you have something, come to the 'Dark Night Veil' to find me. Fred seemed to have something to do, and smiled apologetically at Xia Zuo.
"By the way, remember to tell your ordinary friend not to talk about it everywhere, it's not a good thing after all, although even if you say it, it will only be regarded as a city monster. Fred jumped to the window and reminded Xia Zuo with a smile.
"Wait a minute, just now you said that I am your companion, and Andrew is an ordinary person, do you mean that I am not an ordinary person?" Seeing this, Xia Zuo hurriedly asked.
"Don't you know that you're not an ordinary person? You're just like us, you're all the same kind and all of you're a companion. Forget it, next time I have a chance, things are a bit rushed. ”
"Sorry, then see a friend next time. Fred tightened his top hat, smiled and saluted to Natsuzo, then jumped off.
"Aren't they ordinary people, the same kind......" Xia Zuo paused, glancing at the scars he had just left in the battle, which were slowly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Maybe I should have noticed it a long time ago...... Not only in this monster attack, but I was actually aware of it a long time ago, but for various reasons, I didn't believe it.
Me...... I just want to live well.
What are not ordinary people...... It is precisely because I am not an ordinary person...... That's why those things happened...... Will my uncle say that I don't fit into the outside world......
"Natsuzo, what's wrong with you? Don't overthink it. Andrew suddenly patted Xia Zuo on the shoulder.
Andrew didn't seem to find Shazzo so strange.
"Ah, uh, it's fine. Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and then smiled lightly.
But...... Maybe that's good...... At least I still have the strength to protect my friends.
Monster power...... Isn't it nice to do human things?
"Speaking of Xia Zuo......" Andrew suddenly stopped talking, and looked around several times.
"What?" asked Xia Zuo.
"The house we rented...... It's almost in ruins now. Andrew couldn't help but cover his face.
"Ah???h
"I was going to stop that guy just now and make him at least lose the door, after all, that door seems to be the one he kicked badly......"
"But he's running too fast...... I really didn't have a chance to stop it. ”
"I remember he just said that we can go to the 'Night Veil' to find him, then we can go there and ask him for compensation...... Anyway, we risked our lives to help him drag on for a while, we can't afford not to pay him this little bit......" Xia Zuo suddenly had an idea and said.
"The question is...... Xiazuo, we ...... I don't even know where the 'Night Veil' is??!"
