XXXIV. Attic Banshee
I said, "I'm sent by the One-Eyed Fairy, isn't that enough?" ”
The boy said, "Listen, I'm here to do business, not to do business." That black man has given me a lot of benefits, how can I betray him so easily? ”
Salvador said: "We are officers in the rangers, and if we work well together, we will naturally return the favor in the future." ”
The boy smiled and said, "Very well, maybe I will want to get a few people out of prison." He snapped his fingers, and a tall boy brought a stack of photographs and said, "When you hear the name of Boss Abi, you will know that I am looking for you." ”
When I look at the pictures, they are houses, made of black coffins.
Abi said, "That black man wanted to find all the houses rented by the Blood Pact in Black Coffin Town, but there were too many, and he said which houses were particularly eerie, and I gave them to him." ”
There are also a lot of photos, a total of eight, with a map attached to the back, which is very detailed and thoughtful.
I said, "Let's split up, and if we find anything suspicious, we'll wait at the bar in town...."
"Don't go through the hassle, we have state-of-the-art communication tools, which the Rangers can't all enjoy," Abi said. ”
He took out three headphones and gave them to us, the shape of this thing has been improved, it is very different from the previous one, but it still reminds me of the past.
Abi said: "This thing is very convenient, the three of you can talk instantly, and you don't have to worry about being spied on, a total of 600 gold dollars, thank you for your patronage." ”
I cursed in my heart, but I could only pay the bill, and he taught us how to use it. Out of the hut, we gathered at a tavern not far away, divided the places of the photographs, and I said, "Sammy, don't act rashly, and always remember to contact me and Milse." ”
Salvador seemed a little unwilling, and said: "Longi, I am also an elite ranger, not an inexperienced rookie. If I find a situation, I'll judge for myself. ”
I said, "You forgot that you had lured Lamia into the enemy's encirclement by judging for yourself?" ”
His face was red and white for a while, and he bowed his head and said yes.
We worked together and went our separate ways.
.....
I stared at a small three-story building, it was in the classical oriental style, at first glance, it didn't look unusual compared to the two I had looked for before, but as I got closer, there was a faint vibration from the fireball in my arms.
According to Yao Chi's theory, someone left a dark fire here.
I took Odin's Eye, and my senses expanded, and on the top floor there was a man, a woman, who seemed to be crying. The alertness in my heart grew stronger, and I involuntarily took out Mjonir, and the silent current formed a long sword. I crept up the stairs with a slight cacophony of the planks and I knew she had noticed me, and it made me feel like I had eaten a fly.
The path becomes very narrow, as if it has become a labyrinth with no end to it, and in the future of the labyrinth, it seems to be an abyss that leads to hell, making people want to turn around and run.
This woman must be the murderer, she is the one who killed Rita, and she has more than one murder in her hands, I really don't know how many heinous crimes should be counted on her head.
I'm going to kill her, the sooner the better.
I walked into the house, and she was a very strange woman, with short black hair, finely carved cheeks, red and desolate eyes, lips like red tassels, pale skin like snowflakes, a delicate body, and the clothes and trousers of the ancient army. She was so beautiful, but it always made me sick to my stomach, and looking at her made me feel as if I had some kind of infectious disease that could make my skin ulcerate and die a terrible death.
She knelt on the ground, and in front of her was a man in his twenties, who had been bitten alive and covered in tooth marks.
I said angrily, "Stay still, raise your hands!" ”
She shouted eagerly, "I didn't kill it." She still had tears in her eyes, but she couldn't fool me.
I said, "I'll let you stay still!" "The Rangers are handcuffed, I took them out.
She flares up, grabs the wooden table and throws it at me. I sliced the table in two with my thunder sword, without making a sound, and at the same time, I sent the shadow to attack her, and she shouted, "It's not me, I'm sorry!" "She jumped on the ceiling, bounced off and kicked me. I blocked her with "Sakura" and hit her with the shadow, but she was extremely skillful, she seemed to be very close to Bella, we were deadlocked, she couldn't hurt me, I couldn't hurt her, and she seemed to be merciful.
I gradually came to my senses and realized that something was wrong, that I had no evidence at all, that she wasn't necessarily a murder suspect. She just couldn't get out of it, because the fire was radiating from her. I remember Yao Chi telling me that the Flame of the Dead can make people prejudice, whether she is innocent or not.
I said, "Hold your hands tied, and I'll give you a fair trial." ”
The woman said, "There is no justice for me. Her fingers flashed, and in an instant, I saw several fires flying towards me, like shotguns, and I used Tielian, and the thunder sword in my hand turned to stop these fires. She gritted her teeth, and the fire on her body shone with a strange light, making her loom and difficult to see, and if it weren't for my Odin's eyes, I wouldn't have been able to see her movements.
I said to the headphones, "I've come up with a strong enemy, come and help!" ”
Her face changed color and she tried to flee through the window, but in an instant, the body of the man on the ground rose, and he began to deform, and instead of healing, his wounds healed, and thick and sharp feathers grew, and he let out a chilling chirp, and became a harpy.
I shouted, "Freak corpse? ”
The woman cried, "Honey! No, no! The deformed corpse pounced and bit the woman's neck, and the woman was paralyzed, and was held high above her head by the deformed corpse, and the deformed corpse shook its head vigorously, like a cat biting a mouse.
I cut off the head of the deformed corpse with a sword, and the woman fell to the bookshelf, and she cried, "Don't, dear! No! ”
I said, "He's not yours anymore...", and before he could finish speaking, the deformed corpse stood up again, and he lay on the ground, a hollow sound from where his head had fallen. The woman said, "Oh no, he's calling his companion!" ”
I asked, "Does he have a companion?" ”
Another eagle monster slipped through the window, it opened its blood basin and bit me, I slashed it to death with a thunder sword, and then, the ceiling shattered, and another deformed corpse fell out of the hole, it stabbed me in the ribs with its eagle claws, and the pain spread, I shouted, and shook it back with an iron lotus, and used the fidel to kill the eagle monster.
The woman said, "I'm sorry I can't help, their teeth are very poisonous to me." ”
As I spoke, more and more eagle-shaped monsters appeared, and I alternated between Tielian and Shishan, but I still couldn't help but be caught by them, and the blood made my wounds hot and itchy. I fought off a round of their attacks with all my might, and I could hear the sound of multiple other monsters approaching outside the house.
I shouted, "You've got to.. Help me, how can I detoxify? ”
The woman said, "I need a little fire." ”
I threw Lady Yaochi's fireball to her, hoping it would work, and the woman touched it and said, "Yes." "Holding it tightly, it looks like a pre-dinner prayer.
I fought to stop two more, but the third and fourth plotted against me, and I was knocked down, and a monster stabbed me in the head with a sharp beak, and before I could say my last words, the woman's fire rained down on the two deformed corpses.
She pulled me up and said, "We have to get out of here." ”
I asked, "How can there be so many?" ”
"Because they don't die at all, they're just disguised as stone statues," she said. ”
I remember that there were many of these horrible stone carvings in some abandoned parks in Black Coffin Town, and it turned out to be such deformed corpses. I watched as the deformed corpses I had chopped together were pieced together into cold, stiff stones, and perhaps in a few days they would be just as ferocious.
She took one last look at the room with a sad expression, and as we broke out of the window, I saw a small group of deformed corpses floating in the air. "They can smell me, they feed on me by nature, they have to hide me in an airtight area, and their sense of smell can reach 300 meters," she said. ”
I asked, "You don't have to breathe?" ”
She said, "No. ”
I asked again, "Are you a Blood?" Or is it a living corpse? ”
She looked at me in amazement, and after a moment, said, "Living corpse." ”
It occurred to me that perhaps I could use my shadow, with the shepherds of Halsin, to protect the living corpse of this woman from the fire she leaked out.
I slashed a few swords at her, and the blade and shadow surrounded her, and she turned her head to observe for a moment, and said, "It works, now, let's hide and stay away." ”
I said to Milse, "Things have changed, come and meet me at the tavern." ”
Salvatore asked, "Langi, are you okay?" Caught a suspect? ”
I said, "Maybe it's not the suspect, it's the victim, anyway, you don't have to come." As he spoke, he injected a medical injection into my body, which is a masterpiece of black coffin medicine, which can significantly repair wounds and restore energy.
I held on to the female corpse, like grabbing the hand of someone who was about to fall off a cliff, my fingers were sore and numb, my tendons were trembling, and my muscles were about to tear the edge, and after about five hundred meters away from those deformed corpses, I couldn't support it anymore, and dispersed the thought blade.
The female living corpse said, "The deformed corpse is the same kind as us, but it is a monster that specializes in eating our fire. ”
I looked at her, still feeling contempt and suspicion, and felt that if I touched her, I would contract some kind of extremely disgusting terminal disease, but I suppressed this disgust with my will, and stretched out my hand and said, "Fishbone Longinus, Captain of the Rangers." ”
She shook my hand, and when I touched her skin, it took a great deal of effort to resist the urge to throw it away.
She said, "Soles." ”
I asked, "The corpse in the house.... Did Kolov do it? ”
She said, "How do you know?" ”
I said, "I'm here after tracking this bastard, and now there's at least two murders on the bastard's head." ”
Solas shook her head and said, "He's a murderer who doesn't blink, and what you see is far from all. ”
I said, "That's probably true, his other victim was the Ranger Major, Rita, do you know her?" ”
"I've never seen it," Soles said. She thought for a moment, and then said, "I think I've heard of the name 'Waste Bell' there." ”
