"You talk nonsense, my mother was tortured to death by you! You don't love me and my mother at all, you just..."

Ruby, who was lying on the bed, naked and crying in pain, heard the old blacksmith's words, but screamed angrily and retorted.

Zhao Li glanced at Ruby and was about to quickly look away - after all, the other party was a young girl, and she was naked, and it was always bad to be looked at by him (on the importance of whether the person concerned was sober or not), but Zhao Li seemed to have noticed something again, and quickly moved his gaze back to Ruby's body.

I saw Ruby, who was now screaming loudly against the old blacksmith, and her eyes were pitch black—not pupils, but the whole socket was pitch black, even the whites of the eyes were pitch black, and the whole eye socket was like a black hole.

Not only that, but on Ruby's naked body, you can see countless blood vessels expanding one by one, floating directly onto the surface of the skin, as if they would explode at any time...

"Hold a big groove, what the hell is this?"

Zhao Li looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but beat wildly.

Although he had never seen such a scene in himself, nor in Franken's memory, a few words popped out of his mind one after another—

"Demonization", "Mutation", "Monster"...

Zhao Li immediately thought of the strange tent when he found Ruby, the six-pointed star array drawn with blood, and the strange and weird tattoo pattern on Ruby's body...

The next moment, Zhao Li didn't even have time to put away the scimitar, he turned around directly, pulled his legs and ran, and at a shocking speed, he quickly ran out of the old blacksmith's house and disappeared from the vision of the ghost father and the old blacksmith.

"Dharma, Dharma, Master... ？”

At this time, the ghost father and old blacksmith with his back to Ruby obviously didn't understand what was going on, and he was still staring blankly at the direction where Zhao Li disappeared, obviously a little confused by the sudden desertion of the mage who came to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

"Ho-ho-ho-ho-"

Ruby's mutation speed was extremely fast, and in just a few breaths, the whole person changed greatly, and the words that were being angrily retorted could not be spoken, and turned into an unconscious low shout.

"Ruby, you-"

The old blacksmith turned his head to look at his daughter, confused.

Bang! Bang!

The old blacksmith was greeted with a few soft thuds and a splash of blood on his face—only to see Ruby's veins burst to the surface, splattering the room with blood.

"Help!ahhh

······

Zhao Li was hiding hundreds of meters away, behind a corner in the dark, and secretly poked out half of his head and looked at the courtyard of the blacksmith shop.

In the face of the unknown terrifying power in this world, Zhao Li never thought of staying and fighting - who knows what level of monster Ruby will become?

Besides, that old blacksmith is a scumbag at all, so why bother with him, it is better to save his own life.

Zhao Li witnessed Ruby's entire demonization from afar, or the process of mutation—in the end, Ruby turned into a terrifying monster whose whole body was turned outwards and drenched in blood, and at the same time, the lower half of his body turned into a cloud of blood mist, suspended in mid-air...

As for why a young girl turned into a monster, Zhao Li felt that it had nothing to do with the strange tent and the strange magic surging in Ruby's body.

Of course, Zhao Li also witnessed the whole process of the killing of the "Burt Blacksmith who loved his daughter".

It stands to reason that the first thing that a demonized or mutated person loses is his memory and will as a human being, and he will completely fall into madness.

But Zhao Li was a little skeptical of this statement at this time.

Because the process of the old blacksmith being killed was really not ordinary tragic, the process of being killed lasted for more than ten minutes, and the old blacksmith's screams and painful wails also lasted for so long that every corner of the whole village could be heard clearly.

Finally, by the time the old blacksmith's wailing stopped, the body had become dozens of pieces, large and small, that were scattered and discarded throughout the courtyard.

According to Zhao Li's opinion, the monster formed by Ruby could easily kill the old blacksmith, but "it" or "she" did not choose to do so, but chose to play with him and slowly torture him to death...

Zhao Li wasn't sure if this was the nature of this monster, or if it was driven by Ruby's hatred...

Now, Zhao Li is more inclined to believe that this monster still retains some of Ruby's thoughts or nature.

Because now half an hour has passed since the monster killed the old blacksmith, but this terrifying monster just stopped beside the old blacksmith's corpse, motionless, which is completely inconsistent with the normal habits of a monster...

Although many monsters do not eat people, but simply torture and kill humans, they will never stay in a village for half an hour, either leaving the village or looking for the next target.

Although many villagers in Baiyang Village chose to leave to escape the war, many people still chose to stay.

Zhao Li quietly observed this monster like this, according to Zhao Li's visual inspection, this monster may belong to the resentful spirit class, in terms of strength, it should be much stronger than the water ghost, if you can kill it and obtain mutation inducers, I don't know how many free attribute points you can get?

Although he has the temptation of free attribute points, Zhao Li is not reckless and rushes forward now, he is not sure if he is the opponent of this monster - he also knows very little about this monster, it is better to observe for a while.

Time passes minute by minute...

Ruby's transformed monster remained motionless in the blacksmith's compound.

Zhao Li stared motionlessly.

Until the sky gradually brightened, and the roosters in the village began to crow.

The situation on the field has finally changed.

I saw that as the sky gradually brightened, the resentful spirit in the courtyard of the blacksmith shop began to emit white smoke slightly, and at the same time, the resentful spirit also let out a sharp scream, and at the same time, the body suspended in mid-air also began to tremble violently.

"This... This is the Night Wilful?"

Zhao Li looked at this scene, and some relevant information surfaced in his mind.

According to the legend in Franken's memory, there was a monster called the Night Spirit, which only haunts at night and hides during the day, and when it is exposed to the sun, it will turn into smoke and ashes, which is somewhat similar to the scene in front of him.

In just one or two minutes, Zhao Li could clearly determine that as the intensity of the sunlight slowly increased, the white smoke coming out of this resentful spirit became more and more intense, just like a pile of ghost-shaped wolf smoke, and at the same time, the entire body also shrank by a small half, and a lot of black ash fell on the ground.

"Sure enough, it's a night spirit..."

It has been basically determined that there is a good chance that this resentful spirit really has Ruby's consciousness, and Zhao Li guesses that Ruby wants to end himself in this way?
