The sharp silver light gradually solidified, and the villagers saw that it was a long tail thicker than a two-handed sword—layers of jagged bone spurs on the surface of the surface were intertwined, extending outward along the monster's tail vertebrae, forming a chain blade like a pit viper sword.

Whoosh——!

The sharp tail of the chain blade swung again, and the blood immediately spilled down the long bone spurs, drawing a long bright red line in the air.

"Don't come forward! The monster isn't dead yet!"

"I actually killed five people in one fell swoop!"

The sight in their eyes made the villagers subconsciously retreat.

The cold wind suddenly rose, and the surrounding palm-like trees were blown to a rattle, like countless ghost claws dancing quietly. The dreadbeast, which had been lying on the ground and had been pierced into a humanoid hedgehog, was sprayed with blood and staggered back to its feet.

Gurgle - cluck——!

It raised its head in defiance of its skeletal structure, and its throat made a murmur of blood foam, twisting its limbs and staggering, and the flesh and blood swelled in the dense wounds on the surface of its body, squeezing arrows out of its body one by one.

In the process, the monster's body quickly turned black, and a dark mist overflowed from its face, and almost instantly, criss-crossed cracks appeared on its bloody face, and its skin slipped off like broken eggshells.

"Whew...... Call...... Whew......"

The dreadbeast let out a bellows-like wheezing sound, its skin cracking, and its flesh peeling off...... Finally, the disguise of the humanoid form was removed, and it turned into a terrifying monster with exposed muscles and brain tissue, mutated forelimbs into claws, a lean body, and a long and narrow tail.

"Monster...... Monster ......"

Although it was the sweltering rainy season, the villagers felt cold to the bone, as if they were in a dusty tomb.

This scene is like the devil who originally existed only in human nightmares and fantasies, breaking through the gap between reality and illusion and invading the real world.

"I ...... I'm not...... Monster!"

The dreadbeast fell to its knees, shaking its head in twitching and muttering incoherently. The moment the last syllable was spoken, it seemed to ignite all its resentment and pain, and its body turned into a crimson afterimage and flew out.

Sneer——!

A series of blurry tearing sounds of flesh and blood suddenly sounded in the night sky, and the search net woven by the villagers was rigorous and sharp, but the deformed figure of the monster could smoothly shuttle through it.

A blade that contained all the courage and will of the militia, slashing through its exposed body tissue, but like a stone thrown into a lake, could only stir up a small ripple, and in an instant it would regain its calm.

The swollen brain tissue had covered the eyeballs, but the Dreadbeast was able to accurately observe the loopholes in the enclosure through its extraordinary sense of smell and hearing. Gently flicking its three-meter-long tail along the tail vertebrae, it shot at the villagers' heads like a predatory viper, and in the next moment, it brought a scream and a column of blood.

"I can't escape, I can't escape, I can't escape!"

The militia captain looked at the torn fragmented search formation, and an ominous omen rose in his heart, and his sore body became heavier and heavier, and he could barely hold the spear in his hand.

In all fairness, as a militia captain guarding the village, he has done a good enough job, but unfortunately the opponent is not an ordinary beast, but a dreadbeast that breeds from the darkness with the world's malice towards living beings.

"Ahhhhh!!hh

The militia captain looked at the monster that was tearing through the crowd, let out a trembling roar, puffed up the last bit of blood in his chest, rushed out against the shards of flesh and blood, and threw his spear with all his might.

Whoosh——!

The tip of the spear slashed through the dreadbeast's head through the raindrops of flesh that rained down. The moment before the two made contact, the long tail full of bone spurs swept by, and the sharp silver light flashed away, and the spear that swept by it suddenly split in two.

“......”

Seeing this scene, the militia captain stopped in place with a dull look, and saw the monster's claws, like five huge and sharp long knives, smash down from above like thunder, and closed his eyes in despair.

Bang——!

The dull sound of crashing and the strong wind reached the ears, and the imaginary pain did not come.

The militia captain opened his eyes in confusion, and in the hazy vision, a black figure stood between himself and the dreadbeast like a thick wall.

Short black hair danced in the night breeze, a black cloak enveloped the athletic figure, and a thick white mask obscured the face. Only the eyes that burned with dark flames radiated a heavy and solemn aura outward.

“......”

Holding the dreadbeast's thick neck with one hand, he lifted the monster that had killed countless people in midair, and pierced the bright red muscle tissue with his five fingers, pinching the cervical vertebrae directly, increasing his strength like hydraulic pliers.

The night is like water, and the somber atmosphere spreads out like a picture scroll.

On the rammed earth avenue in the center of the village, a red carpet of blood spilled under the feet of the villagers, but they completely forgot their fear and sadness, and watched this scene in amazement, their minds blank.

At this moment, whether it was the elderly, the young or the young, everyone could feel that the ominous aura of death in the air quickly subsided...... In its place, there is the joy of surviving after the catastrophe.

"It's definitely not human power...... He's a witcher!"

The militia captain looked at the back in front of him, and his chaotic brain gradually became clear, and he vaguely knew the identity of the comer.

Just as he was still amazed at the man's incredible strength over the Dreadbeast, the monster with cracked cervical vertebrae let out a scream, suddenly swung its long tail, cut a shining silver line, and slashed at the opponent's body.

Click——!

A ripple rippled through the air, and the silver lines were as fast as lightning, and they suddenly stopped in front of the witcher, and were caught by his other hand in the air, revealing the true face of the chainblade tail.

“......”

He looked at the dreadbeast with a calm look, his left hand pinching its neck, his right hand pinching the end of its long, thick tail, and suddenly slashed half a circle and pulled outward.

Click——!

With a crisp sound that made everyone's heads tremble, the witcher used his amazing brute force to pull out the tail, even with half of the tail vertebrae.

"Ahh

The Dreadbeast let out a terrible howl that pierced the night sky, and at the same time, it opened its mouth, and there was a dense "thud" sound like a machine gun, and countless sharp, sharp crossbow-like things shot out of its mouth.

The coverage is so large that it not only envelops the demon hunters, but also shoots at the surrounding people who are stunned - from this point, it can be seen that the monster's intelligence is definitely not low, and it also understands the truth of encircling Wei to save Zhao.

Just before everyone had time to react, the man suddenly stepped forward, twisted his arms and waist, and threw the monster into the sky with his backhand. Immediately after that, the figure flashed, wielding the long tail of the dreadbeast, and the movement was like lightning, shattering several 'crossbow arrows' in different directions at the same moment.

“......”

After clearing all the dark arrows, he maintained a heavy stride, as if riding a horse, and suddenly tightened his right fist, and his whole arm gurgled as his five fingers were folded, like a cannon shot, and smashed straight into the sky.

Boom ——!

The fierce iron fist hit the right claw of the dreadbeast, and the force was like an explosion of black powder, pouring out devastatingly, instantly blasting its claws, arms, and half of its body into pulp.

Smack——!

Half of the monster's body fell to the ground weakly, and in a burst of convulsions, it was trampled on by the heavy iron boots and burst its head. The fragments of the corpse decayed at a rate visible to the naked eye, and at last only a little bit of dark qi was left unrecognizable to the naked eye, which sank into the palm of the witcher.

"This is the first one. ”

The dark flames in Evan's eyes flourished again, feeling the nightmare aura that melted into his body, and his face under the mask showed a slight hint of enjoyment, and at the same time, he drew his saber from the sword compartment on his belt - holding the hilt of the sword with his backhand, like throwing a throwing knife, and shot it at a 'villager' in the distance who was waiting for an opportunity to escape.

Whoosh——!

A slender white light flashed in the space, piercing straight through the skull of the 'villager', directly overturning half of its skull, and the corpse that fell to the ground turned into black gas and quickly decomposed.

"The second one. ”

He walked leisurely over, drew his saber back, and once again absorbed a bit of the nightmare's breath, and turned into the silent crowd, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping over them one by one.

"Great, sir, what do you mean...... And monsters lurking among us?" the militia captain asked with a deep breath and a trembling voice.

"Recently, the number of dreadbeasts has decreased, but the damage caused by it has been expanding, and there is obviously a phenomenon of clusters. ”

Ivan walked past the sculptural frozen villagers, crouched down as he spoke, and gently reached out his left hand to caress the head of a barefoot girl. Just as the little girl looked at him with tears in her eyes, her slender fingers pierced her head like five sharp and precise knives.

"The third one, it's over. ”

He grasped a bit of nightmare breath and incorporated it into his body, then shook off the blood from his hand and turned to look at the militia captain:

"The horror of dreadbeasts is not how fierce they are, but the kind of stealth that you can't guard against. It is remarkable that you were able to use your wits to find one of them and force it to manifest itself. ”

"But there are three of them. ”

The militia captain pulled his lips numbly, revealing a miserable smile, looking at the corpses of relatives and friends around him, and the little pride in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"It's a nightmare, and there will always be a day to wake up. ”

Evan patted him on the shoulder, leaving a word, and the figure turned into a vague phantom, soaring into the distant night sky, flickering and vanishing.

At this passing moment, the militia captain inadvertently turned his head and saw the ghostly fire jumping in his eyes, and a look of reverence suddenly welled up on his face:

"The flame burning in the pupil is the eye of judgment that discerns good from evil...... He's—he's His Majesty Evan!"
