Chapter 530: Uncooperative Helpers
"It's going to be delayed for a while." Captain He closed the door of the cabin, and several corpses had been hidden in the unmanned warehouse, and the unconscious shipwright also gagged and tied to the corner of the cabin. It's just that there is no way to clean up the blood on the ground immediately, as long as there is still an Ailu on the ship, it is only a matter of time before they are discovered.
"It's not like slavery, they're not following a particular command." Lu Yingying said, "It's more like the oppression of the superior species to the lower species, just like the yellow speed dragon parasitic on the territory of the one-horned dragon, or the sand fish dragon behind the submersible dragon group, only by pleasing and pleasing the lord can you get a chance of survival." ”
"We know what the law of hierarchy is." Captain Chung interrupted the girl, "Can you be sure of their symptoms?" ”
"Uh...... Check this out. The little scribe looked around the ground, picked up a piece of wood stained with blood, and tiptoed it to the burning torch, and after a brief flash of flames, a cluster of blue-purple sparks burst out.
The blood of monsters has been used as an accelerant for firewood since humans first stepped into civilization, and even ordinary villagers can say without thinking about what color the common beast blood can burn into: "The tooth beast species is not very pure, but it has changed, and I don't know if this change is permanent or temporary......"
"Yingying, don't talk about it yet." Lu Xiu leaned down and looked at the girl's cheeks, the fire of the Yongdao was jumping in Lu Yingying's pupils, "Tell me, are you really okay?" ”
"You still need me, and I'll hold on." When the girl heard this, she shook out the firewood in her hand and replied earnestly, but her voice was still trembling. Two living shipwrights died in front of the little scribe, one with a dagger slitted by his throat and the other suffocated by his own tongue, a sight that most scribes never saw in their lives. God knows that after seeing the situation clearly, Lu Yingying just couldn't help but shout, and she had exhausted all her strength.
"Hey, focus on the potion." Seeing that the tears of the scrivener were about to fall again, Lan Mei'er grabbed her. Having dealt with many rookies in the hunting grounds, the huntress knew that at times like these, it was more effective to divert attention than to stimulate her with a tragedy of genius. ”
"Not only that, if this is the influence of the law of rank, then the entire bloodline of these people has completely changed." The scrivener said solemnly, "The pattern of behavior, the logic of thinking, and even the physical fitness will change. ”
"So you didn't stay in a coma for too long after taking my blow......" Captain He thought to himself. The leader of the wolf moon was a little absent-minded, most of the scene was caused by his own too eagerness, if he could take care of the mustache in the coma behind him, at least the results would not be as tragic as now.
Among the shipwrights, there were no people brought by Wang Li's hunting group, and all of them were original sailors selected by the hunters' union, which meant that they were not "enemies", at least in terms of identity, which made the last fig leaf of the hunters' heavy hands completely useless. The identities of "innocents" and "companions" make them feel like they are wearing invisible shackles in the face of any threat.
"It's not a hallucination or anything like that, there is a 'wake' word, and even if you defeat the person who controls the potion, you may not be able to lift the effect of the drug." The more the little scribe thought about it, the more chilled he became, and the speed of his speech became faster and faster, "I don't know if the person who developed this potion considered the possibility of an antidote at the beginning of its development-it can be said to be 'mysterious' to change the bloodline once, and if it can be changed twice, it can already be called a god." ”
"So, we don't have anything we can do but knock down everyone who rushes up?" Captain Zhong's heart was also irritable, "We are not knights or soldiers, and there is no way to go on like this. ”
"It's time to do whatever it takes, now is not the time to apply Hunter's Glory." Captain He pulled half of his twin knives out of his sheath, "Besides, it's just some crew members......
"What if we can't hold it? This time it's them killing each other, and the next time it's probably us. Ah Yuan said worriedly.
"We're not going to stop here." The huntress said firmly, "We have arrived here, and we can only solve one trouble at a time. ”
"R&D, possession, and use of Class A prohibited drugs, the use of humans for experiments, kidnapping, coercing, and ......" Lu Yingying counted with her fingers for a long time, and stomped her feet fiercely, "These guys have violated almost all the laws I can think of, whether it's the laws of the kingdom or the laws of hunters. She raised her head, "Uncle Zhong is right, this kind of person can't stay on the hunting ground for a moment, and he must be brought to justice as soon as possible." ”
"Looks like we're going to separate here." The old hunter looked up at the stairwell on the top of the cabin, "It's been five minutes, and no one has come to investigate, so there shouldn't be many guys guarding the bottom floor." The three of us go to the top floor, where there is a higher chance of encountering enemies, and you imps are on this level, looking for any trapped guys - just be careful, anyone you meet can be 'brainwashed'. ”
"Where's this guy?" Ah Yuan looked strange and pointed to Ao Sen, who was squatting on the side.
"Only Lu Xiu Xiaoyou can order him, so he has been with you all the way." Captain He was a little gloating for some reason, he covered his mouth with the back of his hand, and covered up his face slightly, "Be careful, this is the enemy's base camp, and there is no absolutely 'safe' place." ”
…………
"I'm scared." Lu Yingying grabbed Lu Xiu's arm.
"You're alright." The little dragonman's eyes were fixed on the corridor in front of him, the dragonman's hearing was turned to the maximum, and he was searching for any voice that might be an enemy or a trapped person, and the girl's heart was beating steadily and vigorously at his side, showing no signs of fear at all, "Has the wound worsened again?" ”
"Nope." The little scribe rolled her eyes in a corner where her companion couldn't see, and muttered in a low voice, "Wooden ......" Her arms were still wrapped comfortably around her companion's shoulders, and her feet laboriously followed the steps of the tall dragonman.
"It's because of this half-human, half-ghost guy." Ah Yuan hid on the other side of the corridor, trying to stay away from Orson as far away as possible, "Damn, can't you just let it go farther away?" ”
"It won't attack you." Lu Xiu explained, "This guy can understand me. ”
"According to you, this guy is similar to the dead boatmen, except in an overdose?" The one-star hunter of the Wolf Moon tried to get closer to the orc half a step. Sensing the approaching stranger, Orson shrugged his shoulders and bared his teeth and roared twice, causing the hunter to retreat back into the corner.
"It's very likely." Lu Yingying was noncommittal.
"Then why did he end up alone in the hunting grounds?" The one-star hunter was puzzled, "We found it a few days ago, could it be an undercover agent set up by Wang Li's hunting group on the airship?" ”
"With this medicine in hand, they don't need to go undercover." Lu Xiu gestured, whispered a few words to Orson, and the four of them turned a corner, "In my opinion, he is more like the product of empirical failure - the person who turned Orson into what he is now, I am afraid that I can't control him myself." ”
"Vomit ......" Ah Yuan didn't know if he was cold by this speculation, or Lu Xiu, who was able to tell it expressionlessly, "I'd rather die in this kind of empirical evidence than become this kind of person who is not a ghost or a ghost." ”
"Human blood is incompatible with monsters, and if you insist on combining, you can only end up with blood coagulating and dying. I don't know how much human ...... will accompany this potion," the little scrivener's voice grew quieter and quieter, and her eyes closed, trying to expel the two boatmen from her mind.
Ah Yuan also kept his mouth shut, before the harvest festival began, Locklac had rumored that there was a mysterious poacher organization that took pleasure in the hunters organized by the slaughter squad. Most of the corpses found in the hunting grounds were unarmed, and their bodies were also bitten by monsters, but because the corresponding names could not be found in the local list of missing hunters, the union has not been able to investigate.
If the incident can be linked to the current situation, then Wang Li's hunting group will not only bear the responsibility for the more than a dozen lives and illegal drugs of the joint team, but the lives of dozens or hundreds of innocent hunters.
"How could anyone in this world do such a thing?" When the one-star hunter of the Wolf Moon looked at Orson again, there was already a deep sympathy in his eyes.
"I guess it's because they're called 'crazy.'" Lu Xiu stopped, and the wood chips on the corridor in front of him were shattered, and the cabin seemed to have been greatly transformed. The doors of the entire row of cabins were sealed with iron bars, and only a small door at the end of the corridor could be opened.
The three of them exchanged glances with each other, confirming each other's guesses, the dragon ship was small, and this was the only way to detain dozens of crew members and hunters in a unified manner. The hunters crept out of the small door, and Luciu taped an ear to the door, listening carefully behind the plank.
The sound of subtle breathing was continuous, but no one spoke or moved. He looked in through the crack in the door, and the fire inside was so bright that he couldn't see the situation clearly. The little dragon man shook his head, untied the heavy sword behind his back with one hand, and was about to smash it against the door.
"Wait......" Ah Yuan stretched out his five fingers to stop, he pointed at Orson with his other finger, and asked with his mouth, "What should I do if I meet a guy like it?" ”
Lu Yingying's eyes rolled, and she whispered to Lu Xiu: "It is said in the classics that the dragon race has a bloodline similar to that of the ancient dragon race, maybe this is the reason why you can attract him." ”
"If I encounter it, I'll try it first with my red pupils." When it comes to combat, the boy can quickly grasp his companion's intentions.
The plan was finalized, and the boy did not hesitate any longer, and the heavy sword poked at the latch, and the small wooden door opened at the sound of the sound, and the iron latch slipped aside. The door was kicked open by Lu Xiu, and the torches in the room swayed in the strong wind from the door panel, and then stabilized.
"Peng ——!"
In the firelight, everyone was greeted by dozens of pairs of stunned eyes. Most of the cabin has been nailed to the bars. Three thick cage locks separated the two teams, and the hunters in custody were on the opposite side of the cage.
The teenagers had raised their weapons, but they had not encountered the imaginary enemy. Lu Xiu looked carefully inside and outside the prison, and did not see a single guard, he turned back nervously and rushed out of the door, and glanced left and right in the corridor a few times before he was sure that his rescue was really effortless.
"Unguarded?" The young man's mind was a little confused, "What are these Wang Li hunters thinking?" ”
"There was no one to guard it." At the other end of the cage, a medium-sized, square-faced uncle paced to the bar, "Are you here to humiliate us?" ”
"It's the Hunters' Guild's dragon strike team, right?" Seeing that there was no danger for the time being, Ah Yuan put down his weapon and asked loudly.
"That's right." In the corner of the iron cage, a cold voice replied, "But you should have known about it for a long time, right? ”
"What are the seniors talking about?" Lu Xiu tilted his head, "We're here to rescue everyone." ”
"Send a few imps to divide us, is that all he can do?" Master Peng raised his head slightly, his eyes swept over the chests of the one-star hunters, "Standard badge...... It seems that they really paid for it. ”
"Wood," Lu Yingying quietly took the corner of the young man's clothes, "There is something wrong here, everyone is locked up here unattended, I think no matter how thick the railings and locks are, they can't stop the footsteps of high-level hunters, and at the other end of the corridor is the arsenal of the dragon ship, if they want to escape, I'm afraid they have already escaped." ”
"What do you want to say?" Lu Xiu was puzzled.
"There might be some other mechanism here."
