Mutilated corpses were removed from the crates by the hunters, and a strong fishy stench permeated the small space. Everyone's face was not good, including Dennis and Nicole, and apparently everyone had not expected such a situation, and all the missing people had been killed, and the bodies had been broken into countless small pieces, which filled three full boxes for storing supplies.

The corpses were lined up, and Nicole crouched beside them, scrutinizing each one. The hunters didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing Nicole, but Nicole frowned tightly, and after checking all the corpses, she returned to Dennis's side lightly.

"If nothing else, it's man-made. Nicole whispered.

Dennis nodded: "Yes, hiding the body in the box is indeed something that only humans can do, and the top box is covered with a quilt." The man tried to cover up the body in the box. ”

The murderer also deliberately deodorized the corpse. "They all have a faint smell of spice, which is very common in the market and is used in the closet to get rid of musty smells." The killer sprinkled spices on their bodies, apparently trying to hide the smell of the corpses from coming out of the boxes. But to be honest, it doesn't mean much, it's a thunderstorm during this time, and no matter how strong the flavor is, it will be blown away by the storm. ”

"He probably didn't expect the rain to last so long. Dennis asked, "They were killed by something." ”

You may not believe it. Nicole said softly, "The wounds I found on them were not smooth, and if they were stab wounds or sword wounds, they would have been very smooth, like cut cloth." ”

Dennis's face changed slightly.

Nicole continued: "And the wounds on their bodies are more like they were torn with their bare hands, such wounds are very common on hunters, they are caused by the fangs and claws of fierce beasts, and fierce beasts do not control their strength, so the wounds are torn. ”

Dennis took a deep breath, and the rancid smell was inhaled into his nose along with the cold air, making him snort: "You mean, the beast that killed them? But it doesn't make sense, I've never heard of a beast having a habit of hiding people after killing people, even dragons can't do it." ”

Indeed, this is where the contradiction lies. Nicole smiled wryly, "But that's the way it is, any hunter can see their injuries." If our previous judgment is correct, then there are only two possibilities, one is that some powerful creature killed them, and then dismembered their corpses, stored them in chests, and sprinkled them with spices. Another possibility is that the person who killed them was powerful and had the strength of a beast. ”

Dennis and Nicole's conversation was not deliberately muffled, so the vast majority of hunters heard it.

Frye listened to Nicole's judgment, pouted softly, and said to Asik on the side, "It's not as smart as that beast." ”

"Legend has it that dragons are far more intelligent than humans. Asik also pouted, "If the dragons did it, it's indeed possible." ”

Before Frye could reply, another hunter lowered his voice and said, "Don't be stupid, how could dragons do such a thing, even if they have a high intelligence, they are just reptiles after all." Think about it for yourself, if you trample a few ants to death, will you hide the corpses of the ants? In the eyes of the dragons, we are ants, and if we kill them, we will kill them, so why hide the corpses. ”

"It's not a human race, it's a human race. Asik asked, "Those wounds are obviously not of human infliction, can't you see the knife wounds and the wounds of the beast's bites?" Obviously, the thing that killed them had sharp claws, and it was so powerful that not a single corpse of so many people was intact, and you told me that humans could do it, I don't believe it." If there really are such strong people, what use is it for us hunters?"

The hunter smiled coldly, "Have you heard of the Dragon's Blood Project?" ”

Dennis jerked his head back and stared straight at the hunter. The latter was taken aback, hurriedly lowered his head, and did not dare to speak. However, everyone noticed Dennis's actions, and apparently heard the words [Dragon's Blood Plan].

Dennis looked at the hunter for a full ten seconds before retracting his gaze, and the latter was so frightened that he was covered in a cold sweat, thinking that he was worthy of being a hunter who had slain a dragon, and his eyes had such a strong sense of oppression. If he really wanted to kill himself, I'm afraid no one would be able to stop him.

The hunter's mind was in turmoil, he knew Dennis's status as a quasi-king, and he was afraid that he would be jealous of Dennis.

It's just that Dennis didn't care about him at all, and just heard the subconscious reaction of the [Dragon's Blood Plan], which was a secret of the four major families, and the secret research plan was carried out by the four princes. He only learned about it in recent years, and he knew that the Liuyun Squad ten years ago was the burial object of this [Dragon's Blood Project].

Creating the most powerful hunter through dragon blood is the ultimate goal of the Dragon Blood Project. They also produced some results at one point, as evidenced by the events in the Imperial Capital two years ago, that they had indeed produced powerful warriors and almost killed Ian. It's just that Karan crushed their research, so far the [Dragon's Blood Project] has run aground, and Dennis hasn't heard anything about the [Dragon's Blood Project] for two years. The hunters who had been transformed by dragon's blood seemed to have been buried in the slums forever.

But now, the current scene reminds Dennis of those "humans" with golden eyes. Dennis didn't know what to call them yet, if he followed Ian to the Burial God Desert, he would definitely call this special group [Dragon Servants].

All he knew was that those guys were far more capable of fighting than ordinary hunters.

Now that the end is approaching, the Lord of Thorns has not returned for a long time, the hunters in the hall are not answered, and the [Dragon's Blood Project] that should have disappeared has reappeared? Dennis felt a headache, he couldn't figure it out, so he simply walked to the row of corpses and began to carefully examine their corpses.

When he saw the same trauma that Nicole described, the uneasiness in his heart intensified.

"Hey, hey, what's the Dragon's Blood Project. Asik nudged the talkative hunter, "Tell me, I'll help you look at Lord Dennis." ”

Frye didn't think it was good, but he also wanted to know what the [Dragon's Blood Project] was, so he didn't say anything, just took a step forward and stood in front of the man. The man licked his lips and gave Dennis a cautious look, making sure that the latter's attention was not on him, before he whispered, "Do you really think that the limits of humanity are like ours?"

"What do you mean. ”

"I can't say much about the specifics. The man said, "Just think about the Lord of Thorns, can a person who can hunt Nathan, the Wind King alone, still be called a 'human'?"
