Chapter 109 Painted Skin
Leon was running through the streets, he was like a cheetah, and others could only see a black shadow flashing, and they couldn't catch his trace at all.
Although the speed of the snow is also very fast, his legs are undoubtedly more flexible in shuttling through this complex terrain.
Not long after he left the City Lord's Mansion, he felt a faint demonic aura, but it was only fleeting.
If nothing else, the demon had finished preying and quietly retreated.
It's full of lakes, and demons can come and go without a trace if they hide underwater.
Although he carries a prop that perpetuates the "underwater breathing" spell, he is absolutely unwilling to fight demons underwater unless necessary.
If the opponent is an aquatic or amphibious demon, fighting it underwater is tantamount to tying one's own hands, and the danger factor is extremely high.
He did want to finish the demon hunt as soon as possible, but only if he was safe.
Sure enough, when he arrived near the location of the demonic aura outbreak, he didn't find anything.
There was silence all around, not at all like someone had been attacked.
Leon turned on the sub-skill beast sense of smell attached to Managaalm's body, and immediately keenly caught a faint smell of blood in the air.
He immediately followed the smell of blood and came to a very ordinary fisherman's courtyard.
There is a barbecue grill in the yard, the charcoal in it is still warm, and the ropes are still hung with pickled fish and fishing nets, everything looks very ordinary.
But the question is what about the people who eat fish?
Eaten by a demon?
Li Ang took a deep breath and immediately enjoyed what is called "mixed tastes" in the true literal sense.
He struggled to get rid of the smell that permeated the courtyard, and then determined the source of the smell of blood.
"On the ground, although someone has carefully treated it, it is impossible to distinguish it with the naked eye, but it does still smell of blood. ”
Leon squatted on the ground, picked up a piece of soil and sniffed it.
"Why is it divided into two?"
"Is it more than just a demon?"
He found that the target who exuded bloody gas actually left separately, and he did not hesitate at all, and chose one at random and chased after him.
In another courtyard, Gustas knocked on the door.
"Who?"
"Gustas!"
A puzzled voice came from inside: "Gustas, didn't the sergeant major say that people who live alone are not allowed to go out at night. ”
"I have something important to do with you! Where can I take care of the sergeant's orders?"
The voice over there was alert: "Is there anything we can't wait until tomorrow?"
Gustas took a deep breath, and a trace of anger rose on his face: "Matthews, I said it, I have something important, open the door for me immediately!"
Matthews became more and more vigilant: "If there is anything important, just say it here, no one can hear it!"
Gustas's face became more and more hideous: "Open the door for me at once!"
Matthews said loudly: "Impossible, if you continue to entangle, I will call someone, I suspect that you are the demon now!"
Gustas raised his head to the moonlight, reflecting his hideous face.
"Hehe, do you think that if you don't open the door, I can't help you?"
He arched his legs ,-->>
Like a spring, he jumped directly over the courtyard wall and came to Matthews.
Matthews' eyes widened and he exclaimed, "It turns out that it is, Gustas, I thought there was a demon disguised in your voice. ”
Gustas smiled and said, "Of course it's me, it's good that you're vigilant, Matthews."
As soon as he said this, Gustas noticed that Matthews had opened the door and rushed outside.
He immediately realized that he had been tricked, and his face suddenly became extremely hideous: "Damn, the humble ant actually dares to tease the servant of the Great Insect Emperor. ”
He strode after him, and almost instantly ran in front of Matthews, and without the slightest hesitation, his abdomen opened, and out of it crawled out the mantis monster with teeth and claws.
Under the moonlight, its compound eyes shimmered with a cold light.
Just when Matthews was already desperate, the mantis monster suddenly stopped the movement in his hand.
If you look closely, your body surface is actually covered with a layer of frost, making its originally fast speed staggering as if it had aged for decades.
Immediately after, a snowy sword light slashed down, easily cutting off the head of the mantis monster.
The comer, still fearing that the other party would not die, then used his sword to cut off the mantis monster's scythe and arthropods, and almost chopped it to pieces.
After all, some arthropods are extremely tenacious, and even if they are eviscerated and their heads cut off, they can still move freely.
Gustas, who was "revealing his heart" on the side, suddenly lost all blood on his face, and fell to the ground on his back with a pop.
Matthews was shocked, "Thank you, you came at such a good time!"
Obviously killed a monster, but Li Ang's face became more and more solemn: "This is not a mid-sequence demon at all, the demon illustrated that it is just a low-sequence second-order mantis demon, am I looking for the wrong target?"
Mantis Demon: The low-level second-order is a pair of sharp scythes, melee combat, and intelligent insect demons, they like to eat the internal organs of their prey, and they live in their prey, and manipulate their prey to act according to their own will.
Or is it because the source of the information is wrong?
"You go home first and wait!"
He hesitated for only a moment, then flew up again, chasing after another source of smell he had discovered earlier.
Matthews didn't react a little, and when Leon left, he couldn't help but sigh: "This demon hunter is really fast, no wonder he can deal with the legendary monster." ”
"Poor Gustas"
"Wait, if Gustas has already been killed, then who is the one who went out fishing with me today?"
Matthews was shocked.
Leon quickly found Maurice's traces, but this time, he was too late.
So he saw with his own eyes what was really going on.
Maurice's chest and abdomen were open, and the other victim's chest and abdomen were also cut open, and a praying mantis demon was lying in it and feasting on it.
These monsters are not picky eaters at all, on the contrary, they are quite keen to gnaw on their internal organs.
The offal that Romanov said was probably that they didn't have time to eat at all, so they had to quickly throw it out to make room for themselves.
It's an alternative version of the painted skin!
But what was even more terrifying than the painted skin was that for two months, he couldn't determine how many people in the city of Ladoga had been replaced with monsters.
And is there a mastermind behind the secret control of these monsters?
