Chapter 353: Xenomorph
When the sky outside the window gets darker, the number of customers in the tavern becomes more and more numerous.
The death of the Archbishop and the Baron's son did not stop the drunkards, and the seats on the first floor were full, including well-dressed nobles and celebrities, as well as businessmen who had recently entered the city.
The brewed wine was put on the table one by one, and the bustle of the tavern contrasted sharply with the hustle and bustle outside, and after nightfall there were more and more guards in the streets, and every two or three minutes one or two guards passed by the tavern with oil lamps.
Gu Yun looked at the roof boredly, the moon was in the sky, and only a slight outline could be seen on the roof in the distance.
After some time, his eyes were drawn to the creatures that flew through the rooftops.
"Who runs on all fours?"
He asked, and the shadow moved extremely fast, leaping over several rooms, leaping from a great height and disappearing into the depths of the alley.
"Werewolves?"
Vera glanced at the night sky, it happened to be a full moon tonight, and the blood flowing in most of the werewolves should have become ready to move.
"What, what did you find?"
Marianne asked, stopping her deduction of the spell.
"I just saw a werewolf jump off the roof."
Marianne:......
Vera: ......
The response was mediocre.
"It's normal for a hunting werewolf to jump down from a high place to attack when they find their prey."
"He's probably just an ordinary werewolf, maybe he's been killed by a nearby witcher."
With that, the two continued to bury their heads in the research at hand.
To be honest, they don't have any interest in werewolf attacks, and they might as well continue to study the reverse magic of life.
Cases of werewolves eating people happen every day, and really smart people definitely don't wander the streets on a full moon night.
However, the legend of the stone ghost mask still made them a little interested.
"I'll go over and see the situation myself, and you can continue to ambush here."
"Oh."
For a whole afternoon, Marianne and Vera were immersed in studying spells, and the two of them did not say a word except for the exchange of technical terms, which made Gu Yun feel very bored, and he could not appreciate the pleasure of witches from obscure spells.
After entering the research state, even Vera seems to be a different person.
After flipping out of the window, Gu Yun directly climbed onto the roof and walked quickly across the roof according to the direction in his memory.
He quickly understood how werewolves moved, and the roof not only kept moving in a fast straight line, but also had a clear view of the pedestrians and carriages on the street, which was an efficient way to hunt.
The only drawback may be that it is a bit expensive.
ββWhen Gu Yun rushed to the scene of the crime, two silver arrows were pierced on his buttocks.
Since these arrows flying from everywhere did not kill him, he did not bother to dodge at all.
When the guards and witchers with torches in their hands watched Gu Yun fall to the ground, they were all stunned by his appearance.
Silver weapons are lethal weapons for both vampires and werewolves, and if a man has two silver arrows tattooed in his buttocks, it is a testament to his status as a good man.
In the world of witchers, the certification of silver weapons is much more powerful than words.
The only problem is ......
Can an ordinary person still maintain Gu Yun's calm state after being unfortunately injured in the buttocks?
They watched in horror as Gu Yun pulled out two silver arrows and threw them on the ground, witnessing this scene, they could only sincerely admire the master who came all the way from the headquarters for being a ruthless character.
Gu Yun looked around the scene, he didn't seem to have such good luck when he saw the werewolf before - the body of the werewolf that was motionless on the ground was stuck with dense silver arrows, and when he arrived, the guards had already spread haystacks on its body and prepared to be cremated on the spot.
It seems that Marianne's guess was correct, and the werewolf seems to have been shot into a sieve by the witcher before committing the crime.
"You...... You okay? β
The demon hunter, who was still holding a light crossbow in his hand, asked Gu Yun with concern, "There is wound medicine in the guild, anyway, let's go and deal with the wound first." β
Light crossbows and silver arrows were important inventions of the era, as they were not only easy to carry, but also capable of inflicting damage directly on evil creatures from a distance, and were carried by almost every witcher.
And when they see something moving at high speed on the roof, a normal demon hunter should react in the same way as him, shooting him with an arrow first.
"No, this little wound has healed."
"Don't be reckless, if you leave it alone, there will be a risk of infection in the wound, a friend of mine died of wound infection because of negligence after being bitten by a wild beast!"
The demon hunter with a light crossbow in his hand accentuated his tone, in fact, he could understand Gu Yun's mood at the moment.
If the arrow is in the arm or knee, it's okay to say, but the buttocks are injured is really unsightly, and it is easy to become a laughing stock...... It is better to become a laughing stock than to worsen the wound and become infected.
"It's really healing."
"I know, but it's better to go back and check it out."
Two guards with torches just stood beside the dead werewolf and watched, and they wanted to laugh but could only stop it, they couldn't burn it now, and they didn't burn it.
However, just as the old demon hunter was about to forcibly take the stubborn Gu Yun back to the guild to check his injuries, a mutation protruded.
When they heard the sound under their feet, the guards first trembled, and subconsciously called the torch to the black shadow that suddenly sprang up, through the light of the torch, they saw a face without sharp teeth and sharp teeth, and without excessive hair, his face looked no different from ordinary people.
However, what he did was very different from ordinary people - he was not afraid of the presence of fire, and bit the guard's neck like a demon.
"Bang ββ!"
The muffled sound was close at hand, and when the guards came back to their senses, the "werewolf's" body was already embedded in the ground, and it was motionless, once again in a state of death.
"I said you don't have to look at me all the time, this werewolf is not dead yet!"
"I'm afraid...... Not a werewolf. β
The old witcher woke up like a dream, and when he saw the "werewolf" who had been shot like a hedgehog suddenly jumped up, he also fell into a state of stupor, just like the guards.
Not to mention the silver arrows all over his body, when they arrived at the scene, they had already pierced his heart with a silver weapon to ensure his death.
If it's a werewolf, it's already been killed three times.
"It's normal, some creatures struggle violently before they die, I've encountered it many times before, so don't take it lightly at any time......"
Before Gu Yun's words fell, the "werewolf" whose spine seemed to have been broken suddenly jumped up like a mollusk, but this time it targeted Gu Yun.
"Now that you've seen through my tricks, there's no need to disguise it...... You guys, let's be my nourishment obediently! β
