Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 19 Stealth
Ian silently infiltrated the dilapidated building, while Xia Zuo and the others followed Ian slowly so as not to make too much noise, and kept a distance of about ten meters.
The dilapidated building was dim and quiet, and only the occasional mouse cries could be heard.
"Fortunately, I didn't stalk my prey cautiously when I hunted before, otherwise I would have been prone to getting out of my way now. Xia Zuo thought to himself.
Ian moved swiftly through the ruined building like a ghost, without making a sound, before pausing slightly.
Ian: He discovers an underground passage.
There were only a few dimly lit lamps in this underground passage, and the silence was eerie, and the sound of water dripping from an unknown corner could be heard.
Ian turned his head and gestured to the crowd, putting his index finger to his lips, motioning for Natsuzo to calm down and not act for a while.
After confirming that Xia Zuo and they were quiet, Ian's soul seeped out a stream of energy, gently enveloping Ian, at this moment, Ian's figure quietly changed, and then merged into the shadow in the dim light, Ian seemed to really become a shadow.
Extraordinary ability, "shadowing"!
This is Ian Hawke's extraordinary ability! This ability, also known as shadow or shadowing, can make itself blend into the shadow to achieve all kinds of strange operations, and also has the function of reducing the sense of presence - Ian's usual low sense of existence is also due to the influence of his extraordinary ability.
Ian turned into a shadow and silently jumped to the shadow of the lamp at the end of the passage.
"Shadow Jumping"! comes from Ian's development and application of the extraordinary ability of "Shadowing", which can silently jump between different shadows, which is a very useful ability.
Underneath the lamp was a dilapidated door.
In front of the door, a monster with blood-eyed eyes stood guard - a common tooth and blood ghost.
And Ian could feel that not only in front of the door, but also behind the door there was a tooth and blood spirit.
If the movement of the tooth and blood in front of the door is too large, it will make the tooth and blood behind the door react, and then it will be considered a complete stab in the hornet's nest.
The corners of Ian's mouth rose slightly, it just had to be difficult to be interesting.
Ian began to condense the power of the soul in his body, and clenched the soul dagger in his hand, which was affected by Ian's extraordinary ability and could not be detected by the ghost.
Ian held the dagger in his hand and gently swiped it towards the neck of the tooth blood seed, the soul dagger contained a large amount of soul energy, and easily killed the ghost, Ian gently caught the dead tooth blood seed and placed it on the ground.
This ghost does not have the special black mist that came out of the previous one, it seems that this blood demon soul does not control all the tooth and blood species, this should be because the strength of this blood demon seed is not enough, in addition, it may also be because this blood demon species feels that these ghosts can't make any waves in its territory, and those tooth and blood species that go out to hunt are out of its sight, and it must use the black mist to control the outsiders.
Ian looked at the door, his black star-like eyes glowing faintly.
"Night Pupil" is another Ian's extraordinary ability, as a veteran soul hunter, Ian obviously can't have only one extraordinary ability.
The pupil of the night allows Ian to see clearly even in the dark, the so-called dark vision. In addition, the night pupil also has a certain degree of clairvoyance, and with this ability, Ian can see that the tooth blood spirit behind the door is resting.
Ian stretched out his right hand, and the energy from the soul crept up to his right arm silently, causing the right arm to begin to "spiritualize".
"Soulization", also known as "soulification", or "soulification" for short, is one of the two states of the soul, which can transform the target into a soul-like state like the soul, and briefly become an extraordinary substance, so that it is not affected by ordinary substances and cannot be touched by ordinary substances.
Ian wanted to use this ability to make his right hand pass through the door silently and attack the tooth blood species behind the door.
In addition, the two states of soul matter are the aforementioned "soul bodyization" and the special "materialization".
In most cases, the soul is in the first state of "soul body", like those tooth and blood soul ghosts, they are creatures composed of soul matter, so they are usually in a state of "soul body", they cannot be affected by ordinary substances, but they can actively affect ordinary substances.
The second state of the soul: the "materialization" of the soul, at this time the soul has a substantial body and can be touched by ordinary substances, which is a relatively rare special situation.
And there are many kinds of these special situations, such as the soul essence that was originally soul body was materialized into solid crystals by soul craftsmen through special methods, and made into soul weapons.
For example, soul creatures are usually in a state of soul bodyization, so when will they be in a state of materialization? The answer is when they are about to die or are dead.
For soul creatures, maintaining a state of soul body is as simple and natural for them as ordinary creatures breathing air, and if they can't even do this kind of thing, they are nothing more than exhausted, not far from death, or already dead.
In the previous battle on Art Street, Andrew was suddenly able to touch the tooth and blood soul ghost because the ghost was too injured to maintain the soul body normally.
In short, the soul is usually a state of "soulization" that cannot be touched by ordinary matter, and it may also be transformed into a state of "actualization" that can be touched by ordinary matter due to various special circumstances.
However, neither the soul state nor the materialized state can change the essence of the soul as a supernormal substance.
Souls can affect each other no matter what state they are in - that is, the embodied soul can still touch the soul-incorporating soul, and the soul weapon can be used by ordinary people and cause damage to the soul-like creatures, which is exactly this principle.
With a dagger in his right hand, Ian Spirited silently walked through the door, and then stabbed the tooth blood ghost behind the door.
The tooth and blood ghost's eyes widened suddenly, and then let out a feeble roar, and its body went limp, and when it was about to fall, it was caught by Ian's hand through the door, and fell gently to the ground.
Ian withdrew his right hand, and then gently opened the door, behind which was still a silent passageway, but he could faintly see some light ahead, and he should be almost to the location of the blood demon seed.
Ian turned around and nodded at Natsuzo.
Xia Zuo and the captain slowly approached Ian.
"Xia Zuo, you can confirm again. Ian gestured down the aisle and said softly.
"Good. Natsuzo nodded slightly, then closed his eyes again.
In Xia Zuo's sight, the black and white world reappeared.
In the passage in the black and white world, there was a line that Xia Zuo felt familiar to him, and it went straight through the depths of the passage.
"That's right, it's inside!" Xia Zuo said in surprise in his heart, and then Xia Zuo opened his eyes and nodded lightly at Ian and the others, "That monster is inside." ”
"Good. The corners of Fred's mouth lifted slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had been enduring it for a long time, "It's finally our turn to play." ”
"Don't get too excited. Arnos spoke out against Fred.
"Understood, Captain. Fred smiled lightly.
"Then let's go. Ian said, and the group adjusted slightly, and then began to go deeper.
"Finally...... We've come this far. ”
Xia Zuo sighed in his heart.
The decisive battle to hunt the blood demon seed ghost has begun.
