Chapter 14: Black Sword Grass, Demon Cat

PS: After work, I gave my colleague a few drinks to deadlift, so that I came back late to update, sorry, I'll use the save manuscript to set a regular update from tomorrow.

Although this small park in the residential area of Zhongcheng Avenue is not big, it is small and full of organs.

In the past, it was often a place for children and the elderly to relax and exercise, there were luxuriant flowers and trees, there were also pavilions and water pavilions that provided rest and shade, and there was a small pond in the northwest corner, with many lotus leaves growing on the water surface, and some ornamental fish were stored in the pond.

Not long ago, it was still a lively scene, full of birds and flowers, full of laughter, a resting place for people after a busy day, and a playground for children to play after school.

However, when Xu Hao came here, he saw that it was already a barren and yellow, twilight scene.

There was no fluctuation in his heart about this, and a hurried passer-by naturally couldn't talk about touching the scene. Or for him, who has experienced countless disasters and disasters in his previous life, he doesn't care what changes have happened in this world.

What should come will come.

Xu Hao knew very well that in the near future, this once infinitely vibrant planet would quickly become full of holes, and a series of terrifying and desperate huge tests would follow.

He can't stop it, and he doesn't have the idea of incarnating as a human hero to save the world, the only thing he can do is to make himself stronger faster and live to the end.

"Hopefully I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to be something like that..."

After entering the small park, Xu Hao explored along the pebble path.

For some reason, the red fog here is obviously several times thicker than the outside, covering the sky and the sun, so that Xu Hao feels as if he has gone to another red world when he enters it, and ordinary people can only vaguely see things a few meters in front of him at most.

Xu Hao clenched the magic vine bow in his hand and looked at the surrounding environment vigilantly.

Somehow, the moment he stepped into this small park, he faintly felt like a needle on his back, as if someone was being peeping at him in the dark.

Xu Hao didn't dare to be careless, he directly turned on the eagle eye, and while listening to the eight directions, he searched for it according to the location in his memory, and at the same time mobilized the vitality in his body, ready to shoot at any time.

Most of the vegetation in the park has withered and died, and there are very obvious black and red blood stains on the ground. Xu Hao frowned slightly, and walked forward looking for bloodstains.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to meet a female corpse in front of him, this person should have been very young before she died, and at this time she was staring at round eyes, and she still had a frightened expression on her face, as if she had seen the most terrible thing in the world.

The upper part of her body was a blur of flesh and blood, and her entire abdomen was torn open, leaving only a few intestines inside, and she looked disgusting.

After Xu Hao approached, a foul smell came to his face. His face did not change, and his gaze swept from bottom to top at the female corpse.

Xu Hao's gaze finally fell on the woman's neck, and his gaze couldn't help but stare - there was a deep claw mark there, almost tearing the woman's neck in half.

"It's kind of interesting..."

The corners of Xu Hao's mouth were raised, but there was more dignified color in his eyes, and his deep ink-like pupils scanned left and right, and then walked forward expressionlessly.

A moment later, he was on the edge of a meadow on the east side of the park, where there were many exercise equipment.

It was originally overgrown with ornamental plants, but now there is only a small black grass with straight leaves and sharp edges, like a sharp sword.

"I'm not mistaken, it's really the black sword grass." Xu Hao smiled slightly.

The so-called black sword grass is a special vegetation that will only appear after the bloody era, it is not common, and it contains highly poisonous, once it is infected with a wound, if the average person can not be rescued in time, it can be fatal within five minutes.

Even with the strong physique of the demon hunter, he could not resist this poison.

So under normal circumstances, demon hunters will take a detour and avoid them when they see them, but in Xu Hao's opinion, they are a very useful treasure that can play a miraculous role in battle.

Discovering this small piece of black sword grass in front of him was as surprising to him as discovering a hidden mission.

"Since there is such a patch of black sword grass, then there should also be companion plants..."

Xu Hao looked carefully around the black grass under him, and finally locked his eyes on a small grass with red leaves, and grinned: There really is!

This leaf-like red grass is called Vermilion Grass, which is a companion of the Black Sword Grass. Usually in places where there is a large area of black sword grass, there will be at least one vermilion grass.

Unlike the highly poisonous Wujian grass, the vermilion grass can detoxify all kinds of poisons, and anyone who takes a vermilion grass can be invulnerable to all poisons within three days.

Don't look at this effect, after the Scarlet Era, all kinds of dangerous vegetation will grow everywhere in the city, most of which contain different poisons, even if it is a witch, if you are accidentally poisoned, it is also life-threatening if you don't remove it in time.

A vermilion plant can often save a person's life at a critical time.

At this time, this vermilion grass grows in a small piece of black sword grass, and most of its small body is covered, and if you want to take it out, you must remove the dense black sword grass. You have to be careful to avoid the sharp tip of the black sword grass during this process, otherwise you will accidentally get pricked, which is no joke.

Xu Hao's eyes flickered slightly, and then he leaned down, looking as if he was going to pick this vermilion grass.

But at this moment-

A figure suddenly catapulted down from the height of a withered tree behind Xu Hao, extremely fast, flashing in the thick red mist, like a ghost, and in a blink of an eye, it came to the sky behind Xu Hao, a pair of sharp claws flashed a faint dark light, and grabbed Xu Hao's neck fiercely!

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Almost at the moment when this figure pounced, Xu Hao turned around, and the magic vine bow in his hand was pulled and shot, shooting out a stainless steel arrow almost at a speed that ordinary people couldn't see.

Silver flashes!

It's so fast!

The sneak attacker didn't expect this attack at all, and the distance was too close, it couldn't dodge Xu Hao's arrow light with abundant vitality at all, and in just an instant, its head was directly shot through.

A terrible scream rang out, and the sneak attacker, with inertia, fell heavily to the ground, trembling for a moment, and then disappeared.

"No. A0365 successfully killed the first-order demon cat, triggering the temporary mission: Demon Cat Hunter."

"Difficulty: C+"

"Requirements: Kill at least two of the three first-order demon cats hiding in the shadows of the small park, and survive."

"Mission Failed: 20 Points Deducted"

The familiar prompt sounded, and Xu Hao's heart couldn't help but sink.

In fact, after discovering the wound on the neck of the female corpse, he guessed that there might be a first-order demon cat here.

In his previous life, he had experienced a hundred battles, and he had long been aware of the attack methods of more demonic creatures, and the little demon cat was naturally no exception.

Moreover, the archer's perception is the highest among all the witcher classes, and with his current perception, he can actually faintly catch two hostile qi engines from different directions when he is close to the female corpse.

Xu Hao could feel the dangerous aura they exuded, and there was no doubt that these two guys were hiding in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow to themselves.

So he deliberately sells a flaw in an attempt to lure out one of the demon cats, kill it with one blow, and then deal with the other one.

He succeeded in the first step, and after consuming a amount of vitality, the demon cat in front of him who was the first to sneak attack had been killed by him with one arrow.

But to his surprise, there were not two first-order demon cats hidden in the small park, but three!

Killed one, but two more.

But at this moment, there is only one of the three vitality in Xu Hao's body!

Before, in order to deal with the first-order demon downstairs in the residence, he consumed a Yuan Qi energy.

So much so that he didn't have enough vitality to deal with the two remaining first-order demons.

Careless!

What to do?
