Chapter 7 Crime Zones
"Last but not least, you must warn your men not to try to challenge the werewolves, it is very irresponsible, as they are definitely much more vicious than any of the criminals you have encountered before!
Watson had a serious expression on his face when he said this, he had also seen werewolves in his previous missions with Maury, and it was almost impossible for a few ordinary people to kill it with a long sword or a normal firearm. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The combination of a sturdy half-beast body, a speed that ordinary people can't react to, and a claw as sharp as a steel sword is a high-efficiency killing machine for the police officers in Kailan Town.
And to be honest, Watson doesn't care much about the death of a few reckless policemen at the hands of werewolves, what he wants more is to successfully complete his mission, werewolves as a cunning dark creature once their whereabouts are exposed, then the chance of running away is quite large.
If someone gave the werewolf this feeling, it would choose to leave, then Watson's mission would naturally fail......
After all, it was his first mission on the road of demon hunters, and even if he was a little too cautious, Watson still wanted to make a satisfactory answer.
Fortunately, Watson had already gained Kevin's trust in what he had done before, so after hearing his admonition, Kevin didn't make much sense, as the nominal and de facto leader of the garrison, he still understood that for the sake of his position, he should protect the safety of his subordinates, not for the sake of a momentary eagerness, so that they would have meaningless casualties, and it was possible to make things worse.
"The above is all the details that need to be paid attention to in this operation, I emphasize once again, anyone involved in the operation should never try to arrest a possible target, believe me, you can't afford the consequences of doing so! We have professionals to deal with the murderer this time, so please be sure to cooperate. ”
After talking to Watson, Kevin walked out of the office on the second floor and immediately sent someone to call 20 police officers, announcing to them some precautions for this manhunt and repeatedly emphasizing what Watson had specifically raised earlier.
"Sergeant Kevin, it seems that our cooperation is going quite well, and now I am also going to the area where werewolves may exist, I am still quite experienced in searching for monsters, and I am sure that a hideous head will be sent to you soon. ”
Now that the equipment and assistance he wanted have been obtained, Watson naturally has to start his own actions, just sitting on a rattan chair and drinking coffee can't catch anything, so when Kevin finished arranging tasks outside and returned to the office, he immediately stood up and said.
After saying goodbye to Sheriff Kevin, Watson rejected his idea of assigning two helpers to himself, and walked out of the garrison alone, not because he was afraid of being watched, but because if he was followed by a few ordinary people, it would still make Watson have some scruples anyway, if he met the werewolves, he was still distracted to take care of them, although deep down he didn't care about their life or death, but the problem was that if these two people were killed while following him, it would undoubtedly lower the evaluation of his ability...... For a new demon hunter, this is undoubtedly a bad archival record.
Watson had roughly locked down the werewolf's hunting area in the previous discussion with Sheriff Kevin, which was in the more chaotic tavern area of Kellan Town, where several taverns were opened, and it was frequented by many gangsters and homeless people, all in all, it was not a very orderly place, and the accidents in Kellan Town had to account for more than half of the accidents every year.
He was not in a hurry to rush to the tavern area, first bought an apple from a fruit stand in front of the garrison, washed it in the pool next to it, and then walked slowly over there, according to his speculation, if the police started to search the tavern area now, it would take a lot of time to wait for the news to come out, so it was not very urgent now.
We must know that werewolves are dark creatures who are not in the habit of attacking others in broad daylight, and the sun is second only to silverware in disgust to them, especially the sunlight that seems to carry infinite light and heat on a summer day makes them feel very uncomfortable. As such, the likelihood of spotting werewolves during the day is quite small, and their activity peaks only between the beginning of the evening and the dawn of the next day
In the process of walking, Watson who has the skill of mastering dark energy also began to slowly spread his perception to the surroundings, as mentioned earlier, the ability to master the dark energy brought to him is not only used in the battle, in the past two years of continuous attempts, Watson found that as long as he is focused enough, then the dark energy mastery can allow him to easily perceive the creatures or items with dark energy in a certain range around him.
This was one of the reasons why he was slowly walking towards the tavern area, and in the case of running, the perception area of dark energy would shrink to a certain extent, which was not conducive to his search.
Of course, he didn't go to the tavern area now, Watson expanded the dark energy perception, just to try the maximum range that he could perceive now, so that he could be fully prepared, and the main thing that didn't let him go to the tavern area quickly was because he was feeling hungry now, since he went out at home in the morning, it was past noon, and he only ate two loaves of bread, and the demon hunter is also a human being, although he can be more hungry than ordinary people because of his physique, but there is no need to grieve himself now.
Most of the pub areas were places where drinks were served, and it was not a thing of none, but it was certainly not much better, and Watson was quite concerned about the food, unless he was forced to do so, and it was difficult for him to accept the dry and hard bread or the odd tasting broth.
As the most prosperous town in the area, there is naturally no shortage of restaurants, and after walking for more than ten minutes, a restaurant that looks quite well decorated appears in front of Watson.
"I want a steak, fully cooked, a chocolate cake, and a big glass of grape juice remember it's grape juice, not wine, thank you." ”
Watson sat behind the glass facing the street and told the waiter his lunch menu, he likes sweets, he can drink, but when he eats alone, he prefers to order juice, and after saying that, he took out a few copper coins and put them on his tray as a tip.
Probably because it was past lunchtime, and there weren't too many customers in the restaurant, Watson's food didn't take long to be served to him, and he took a sip of grape juice and nodded slightly, which tasted much better than the town where he lived with his father. The steak and chocolate cake are also quite delicate, and they seem to be more likely to whet his appetite than the ones he has eaten before, and I wonder if it is possible that he has been hungry since the morning.
20 copper coins is the price of Watson's meal, and by the time he walked out of the restaurant after eating the food on the table, the sunlight outside had begun to slowly dye a layer of red that belonged to the setting sun, and the time had reached about 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
After walking for about 20 minutes, Watson finally came to the street on the outskirts of the tavern area, although he had not yet entered the tavern area, Watson also felt that the recent damage here had indeed caused a lot of impact here, it should have been that the tavern business was gradually getting better, and the time when the street traffic in the tavern area was gradually increasing was now two diametrically opposed scenes.
The sparse flow of people, the wooden doors of the houses on both sides of the street, and the wandering and nervous homeless people gave this otherwise lively place an indescribable sense of desolation.
"Hello, I just arrived in Kailan today, this is supposed to be the tavern area, right, why does it look more like a cemetery?
Watson approached a homeless man on a bench by the side of the road, stacked a few copper coins and placed them beside him, pretending to be dissatisfied, and asked his own question.
"The new guy has a good character...... I advise you to get out of here, especially in the tavern area ahead, where quite a few people have died lately, I heard...... There's monsters in there! Monsters, you know, cannibals!"
The homeless man reached out and took the copper coin, rubbed his nose and said in a deep voice.
"Monsters, whatever? Who do you listen to?"
"Ha, you people are always like this, you seem to be very bold and you are really going to meet and you are afraid to die, forget it! I'll tell you some news if you have a good hand, and the night before yesterday I was in the alley next to the tavern in the innermost part of the tavern area...... A friend of mine saw it......! The monster that looks like a dog eats people there! He drank a lot of wine at the time, but he assured me he saw it!"
The homeless man looked around before speaking, and his voice became deeper and deeper, as if a monster was staring at it not far away.
"Thank you for the answer, I see, goodbye!"
Hearing what he wanted, Watson also determined where he was going next, patted the homeless man on the shoulder, stood up and walked to the tavern area.
"Hey, didn't you listen to me? There's a monster in there! Bastard, aren't you afraid of being found by it!"
The homeless man watched Watson walk towards the tavern area expectantly, and couldn't help but stop him.
"I'm here to find it! It's coming for me, and I'm too late to be happy!"
Watson said as he looked back at the homeless man.
Standing under the street sign in the tavern area, Watson reached out and touched the handles of the two long knives hanging from the leather armor in the trench coat and the wooden handle of the musket that Maury gave him, and the corners of his mouth slowly turned up: "I don't know what kind of ability you can bring me...... I'm looking forward to it!"
