The jungle at night is quite quiet.

Roman and Anne tasted the special food in Vanilla Town, cleaned up briefly, and took advantage of the night to go to the dense forest outside the town.

After searching before, some traces were found in the Roman jungle, and I took Miss Anne to confirm it.

Deep in the forest, there are occasional hoof prints on the grass and dirt.

It's like a sheep's hoof, but it's bigger.

There is often a hoof print at intervals of several meters or even more than ten meters.

This is obviously not in line with the behavior of ordinary animals, but it can match Miss Anne's statement that the silver-horned black-tailed beast can move with the help of starlight.

Tonight, the red moon is high, the stars are shining, and the weather is clear, which is a good time for its activities.

Anne walked quietly among the trees, bringing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses with dark red patterns, followed by two delicate mechanical figures that made a slight snap sound.

Roman, on the other hand, with the help of his ability to hide in the shadows and his vision in the dark, fell far behind her.

Roman, who was tall, didn't make a sound.

Anne took her robot puppet along the hoof prints that were far apart, only to lose the traces of the hoof prints near a large tree.

She searched around for a long time, but to no avail.

After a while, Roman appeared and whispered:

"I was the same that day, its hoof prints would always disappear somewhere, and no trace would be found."

"But......" Roman was a little puzzled, "it seems that the place I pursued last time was not far from here." ”

Roman and Anne looked at each other, both of them thought of something, and began to search the neighborhood cautiously, but to no avail.

For the next two days, Roman and Anne spent the rest of their time in the dense forest, especially in key areas, but found nothing.

On Sunday afternoon, at Anne's request, Roman took her back to Beckland, to the headquarters of the Steam Church, St. Sherland's church, to get something.

That night, Anne, who had started her search again, took out a clear flask with a stopper in a bronze box from her backpack, which contained a bottle of crimson liquid.

Roman watched from afar, and his eyesight was excellent, as if he could see the constant change of form in the crimson liquid, as if he were alive.

In the evening, I had a conversation with Anne, another of the main materials for the "Astronomer" potion, which had been kept in St. Sylland's Cathedral.

Anne is going to use the convergence between the extraordinary traits to help find the trail of the silver-horned black-tailed beast.

Roman and Anne searched slowly and carefully in the key area, and after Anne took out the bottle, Roman looked around more cautiously, holding the "Traveling Staff" in his hand, ready to support at any time.

The main reason why this material was not produced in the first place is that it is kept in the church of St. Hillland, which is still the property of the church.

Anne went back this time to speed up the review of a certain merit through her teacher's channels, and only then did she make an exception to take the material out of the church.

That's the bad thing about big organizations, it's inefficient.

But it's nice to have a backer......

Another reason why this method was not used before was that Anne was only a "craftsman" after all, and she was afraid that she would not be able to react to a sudden attack when she made the bait, or if Roman was the bait and was afraid that the convergence effect would not be enough, or that the silver-horned black-tailed beast would not show up when she saw too many enemies.

Roman was thinking crankily as he observed his surroundings.

Suddenly, Roman in the shadows seemed to hear something, and suddenly appeared in front of Anne an animal that looked like a goat, but was two circles larger than a goat, it was gray all over, with a silver-white horn on the top of its head, and a long, dark tail.

It was Roman and Anne who had been searching for the Silverhorn Blacktails for days!

As soon as it appeared through the starlight, it launched an attack on Anne.

I saw that its two eyeballs suddenly turned silvery white, and then the silver horn suddenly became transparent, and an arrow that seemed to be composed of starlight missed, heading straight for Anne!

Anne responded instantly, with a mechanical figure behind it stepping forward to block Anne in its back, and another figure extending its arms, revealing the steam rifle placed on top of them.

Bang! Bang!

Two loud steam rifles rang out in the silence of the night, but the silver-horned blacktail was unharmed.

Before the gunshots rang out, it instantly turned into a strange state similar to starlight, and stepped out of the distance of ten meters in one step, revealing its form again.

The mechanical doll standing in front of Anne had a deep scar visible on the left shoulder, through which the gears and metal parts underneath could be seen.

The silver-horned black-tailed beast jumped in the starlight in succession, approaching Anne and attacking, but Anne was like an unpredictable prophet, dodging each time or using a mechanical puppet to stand in her way.

Moments later, the two cyborg figures were covered in scars.

The silver-horned black-tailed beast also stepped out of the starlight and confronted Anne not far away.

It's like being a little tired and resting after using "Starlight Arrow Lost" continuously.

Roman was about to look for an opportunity to make a move, when he saw the silver-horned black-tailed beast's eyes suddenly redden, like two crimson full moons.

Both Anne and Roman, who was secretly observing, could see that its body seemed to become solidified, and it seemed to have regained its "strength".

Attack on Anne again.

This is...... Simulating a "full moon" to get spiritual fullness?

Seeing that Anne could still hold on, Roman did not attack at will, looking for opportunities.

Looking at the figure of the silver-horned black-tailed beast that appeared again and again, Roman seemed to have found some rules.

Each time it appeared, it was a place where the starlight was scattered, and the shadowed places obscured by the trees were never seen to appear, and the locations where it appeared rarely recurred.

Is it "charging"?

Suppressing the thought of how this worked, Roman found that the rules he saw had always applied, so inferred, the place where it would appear next ......

Roman pinched the "Traveling Staff" in his left hand, which instantly inspired the "Flash", while his right hand held the "Black Snake".

Brush! Brush!

Less than twenty meters to Anne's left, two figures, one tall and one short, suddenly appeared at the same time.

Seeing that he had made the right bet, Roman did not hesitate at all, and two golden lightning bolts seemed to condense from the depths of his eyes, shooting towards the silver-horned black-tailed beast that had just revealed its physical figure!

"Psychic piercing"!

The silver-horned black-tailed beast had just revealed its form, and it froze instantly, unable to avoid the sword that Roman swung and slashed.

A painful scream sounded instantly, and before he could make up for a "spiritual piercing", Roman saw that the silver-horned black-tailed beast's eyes instantly turned silver white, and its figure became transparent, disappearing in front of Roman's eyes.

Roman wasn't surprised by this, after all, it was an extraordinary creature close to the Sequence 5 level, and he didn't expect to be able to kill it with a single sword.

The sword slashed at the back of its neck, leaving a deep scar.

Holding the "Traveling Staff", Roman flashed again according to the pattern he had just discovered, and reappeared beside it.

It's still a "spiritual piercing"!

It's still the "Black Snake" slash!

A terrible hiss sounded again, and it suffered another thump.

No longer having time to pay attention to the liquid that had a great attraction to him, the silver-horned black-tailed beast's body was blurred, and this time it did not attack Annie again, but continued to blur away.

It wants to run away!

That's too cowardly......

Roman complained in his heart, and followed it in a continuous flash.

While chasing near a stout yellow cedar tree, the silver-horned black-tailed beast suddenly disappeared.

This tree Roman has seen, and the first time he lost his hoof prints was in this vicinity.

Thinking of this, Roman cautiously looked around, and a moment later, Anne arrived with her two scarred mechanical dolls.

"When you chase it, it's gone, and suddenly it disappears, leaving no trace."

Roman said, and suddenly noticed that under the yellow cedar tree, it was composed of scattered leaves, some of which were very inconspicuous, but slightly unnatural traces, which seemed to be hiding something.

Holding Anne behind, Roman held the "Traveling Staff" and the "Black Snake" and walked towards the trace.

Poke hard with your sword.

Bang Bang Bang Bang ......

With the sound of falling leaves, a deep hole that was one person wide and had no bottom to see appeared in front of the two of them.

Not far from the entrance of the cave, there are also clearly visible hoof prints and fresh bright red blood.

Glancing at Anne, she pulled out a small piece of machinery with a long rope attached to it from her backpack behind her, and a pony lamp hanging from it.

Controlling the pathfinder gradually downward, the flames were not extinguished, and the downward hole was curved and deep, and the situation could not be seen.

Roman put away the "Black Snake", held the "Guardian Shield" in his left hand, and the "Traveling Staff" in his right hand, and said to Anne, "Hold on to me." ”

He half-glides all the way down and plunges in.

has been hunting to this point, and there is absolutely no reason to give up directly.

With the caution of the silver-horned black-tailed beast, if the hunt failed this time, it would be more difficult to find its traces next time.

Besides, both Roman and Anne still have some hole cards, and they are not particularly afraid.

After sliding down for a while, Roman found himself seemingly passing through a "robbery hole" and entering a tomb, and the bottom suddenly became wider, and there was some sudden enlightenment.

There was no starlight here, and I don't know why the silver-horned black-tailed beast was running here, leaving a clearly visible trail on the way, making Roman wonder for a moment if this was his conspiracy.

Cheering up, holding a shield, Anne held the lantern and walked forward.

Finally, as Roman's night vision ability saw his surroundings clearly, he couldn't help but take a breath.

Instead of seeing the silver-horned black-tailed beast, Roman saw a laboratory table in this spacious area, which was somewhat like a room! It belongs to the human race, and it appears here with a great sense of disobedience!
