Chapter Seventy-Two: The Bark Mask in Hand

The three of them formed a circle with their backs to back, turning in a clockwise direction, their weapons in their hands. The morning sun penetrates the leaves of the trees, and the stars can barely distinguish the things in the forest.

"Insulting from the side of your identity and his IQ! If you do what I say, you'll succeed, hurry up and don't give him a chance to escape. ”

Cliff was in a hurry, and letting Esther escape would be a great disaster. A smart monster who is more powerful than ordinary people, it will be a huge disaster to start a guerrilla war in a small town, and no one can survive in peace.

"Hey, bastard, you coward, come out and get revenge on me! You feel it, don't you? Yes, I'm Fitz Simpson, the great-great-granddaughter of Jett Simpson! ”

At his urging, Fitz continued to taunt loudly. The effect of the taunt was very obvious, and after saying a few words, Ye Guangji noticed that at the top of the tree not far away, there was a red light that lit up slightly and then went out.

"My family made a fortune on your pancake recipe and became the top family in Mona. It's all because of your stupidity and complete lack of business acumen. A recipe is still a treasure, you ignorant hillbilly! Fitz's words were bitter and harsh, in stark contrast to her feminine appearance.

Ye Guangji glanced sideways at her in surprise, and turned to observe the location where the red light was shining again. Even if Esther was in his heyday, he was now sure to take him, not to mention that Esther only had a head left. The people of the town gathered together to make it easier for him to poison him, and it was easy to complete the task of collecting souls.

He was also interested in the bark mask. It's not easy to have someone else in the area, and Cliff will definitely ask for it to be ruined. The rest of the demon-killing squad can't die anymore, and the casualties are so big that people are panicking, who still has the heart to eat.

"Bang~"

There was a violent explosion in the direction where he came, and Fitz, who was cursing continuously, bit his tongue. She covered her mouth and coughed, her dry mouth making her throat a little uncomfortable.

"Words don't seem to be useful to him, the body over there has already been processed, why don't we search in groups!" Ye Guangji looked at Fitz with concern and proposed a seemingly feasible solution.

Cliff also noticed Fitz's situation, and after a moment of thought, agreed. Tell the two townsfolk in the clearing over the walkie-talkie, and ask them to bring them a large bag of maple syrup.

"Jeffrey is in a group with Fitz, and Phil is in a group with Narlen. I'm on my own, be careful, I don't want to see anyone die again! ”

The five are not easy to distribute, and Cliff has always been an arrogant person, taking the initiative to divide himself into a separate group. After assigning a direction, I left on my own.

"Ahem, Jeffrey, let's do it too."

"Don't worry, it's too difficult for such a big forest to find him. If he's listening nearby, there's the best chance of targeting you, so we'll have to be careful. You're thirsty, let's go back to the car and drink some water. ”

Ye Guangji's concern made her heart warm, and she nodded lightly in agreement. Along the way, he kept his head down and thought wildly, forgetting about the vigilance around him. The two of them were close together, and there would be a touch between the shaking of the arms, and the itchy Fitz grabbed his hand to prevent the arms from shaking again.

"There is a situation, you are waiting here for me to take a look."

After speaking, Ye Guangji took out his left hand and rushed over reflexively, Fitz subconsciously agreed before he understood what was going on, and hurriedly admonished him. "Be careful."

Emotions have a great impact on people, it can affect the decisions made by the brain, which in turn can affect people's behavior. Fitz didn't notice that the two of them walked quickly, and didn't pay attention to the environment behind him, how could he notice the anomaly behind him.

Ye Guangji didn't look back and made a gesture that was okay, and returned to the position where he had just separated. Looking at the top of the tree where the red mango lit up, the slight bulge still proves that Easter's head is still there. If you look closely, you can see that the tree is wilter than the others, and its leaves are slightly elevated, not as erect as the other trees.

He stood still, leaning on the wind spectrum, and landed on the top of the tree in a dashing manner. Before Esther roared, a small bag of syrup slipped into his mouth. Put your fingers to your lips and make a silent gesture. "Shhhh

Easter's bright red eyes were fixed on him, his mouth stiffly open and he didn't dare to move, for fear that his teeth would bite the syrup bag out. Until the silk threads stretched out from the bark mask were withdrawn, he could only hold in place and do nothing.

"I'm interested in your mask, give him to me and I'll help you kill everyone in town, including the Simpsons offspring."

In East's bewildered eyes, Ye Guangji squatted down and gave him two big slaps. "No, it's useless to give you a chance, and you can't even trigger a task. Is emotion not enough? ”

Looking into the distance through the leaves, I could vaguely see Fitz waiting in place, thinking of coming over to help. Ye Guangji decided not to try again, the chance of triggering the task on him was already slim, and the trigger conditions may have been met, but the goal of the task was the same as that of collecting souls, and the system panel did not generate the task.

"If you don't say anything, I'll assume that you agree."

Ye Guangji pulled out the long knife on his side and pierced the syrup bag in Easter's mouth and slashed diagonally. Removing the remaining shin bones from the other party's jaw further weakened him while making him unable to make a sound.

The bark mask looks ordinary, like a maple poplar bark with two small insect eyes. Covering the nose and above, strictly speaking, it is a half-face mask. The rope is made of woven rope from the position of the rope, which appears to be a mask tied with rope, but in fact, the rope is attached to the skin, and the rope is redivided into the silk and burrows into the wearer's skin.

The skull was too big to take back and study slowly, Ye Guangji tried to cut off the tree wire that stretched out of the mask, but found that it was even tougher than he imagined, forcibly cutting and even cutting the blade out of the indentulation. As he looked down to think about how to separate Esther from the mask, the red glow of his gaze suddenly widened.

The scene in front of me changed instantly, and it was not a clear perspective, and I was in a police station room decorated in the city. In front of him was a vague and pretty figure with a heroic posture, Ye Guangji subconsciously felt that the other party was familiar, and he didn't wait for him to see the scene clearly and return to the tree. The system panel prompts that a mental judgment has been made.

"Hallucinations? Hehe, I'm just high in mental attributes. Is it a mask skill, it's really good. ”

The silk thread of the mask went deep into the tree and retracted, and Ye Guangji grabbed half of the head that wanted to escape. The place where the skull touches the syrup is extremely crispy, and with a slight exertion, the residue falls. He took out a few more bags of syrup and poured them all on them, a large puff of white smoke coming out of it, and his red eyes widened violently.

Grab the corner of the mask and slap it at the tree trunk on the side. It didn't take much effort for the entire skull to shatter into small pieces. Losing the blockage of flesh and skin, the silk threads that parted from the mask quickly retracted, turning into an ordinary bark mask.

[Demonic Lumberjack Esther dies, and the Contractor completes the main quest.] 】

"The blue superb, it's really good. Well, it's still an accessory, no worse than purple equipment! ”

There was no need for Ye Guangji to use the identification technique, after the system panel determined that Esther was dead, the mask emitted a brilliant dark blue light in his perspective, like the blue sea and like the clear sky. The iron side of the mask is extremely smooth, and it looks like a delicate leather mask on the inside.

He took the bark mask into his arms, and when he didn't count the mask, he looked down and couldn't see that there was something hidden in his chest. I patted it to make sure that the mask was placed firmly and would not fall out easily with the movement. Jumping off the tree to meet the anxious Fitz, Fitz's worried expression when he saw him coming back suddenly relaxed, and subconsciously pulled his free left hand, his body was close to it, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sweet smile.

"Haha!"

Ye Guangji didn't care about being led by the other party to walk, and suddenly smiled softly as he walked. Fitz asked with a blushing blush as he looked up at the side of his face, his hands clenched unilaterally. "What's wrong?"

"It's fine."

The mask on his chest soon calmed down, and began to stretch out silk threads to slide over his skin, making him itch a little. As if sensing that it was not the face, the dense filaments shrank back, and the mask became ordinary again, and it was disgusted to take it to the fire.

Accompany Fitz to the pickup truck to rehydrate, and take a break to devote himself to the search for Easter. East has been killed by Ye Guangji, and it is already difficult to find something the size of a basketball in the forest, not much easier than looking for a needle in a haystack, not to mention that the target has disappeared!

As it gets dark and evening, Cliff calls the crowd over the walkie-talkie to assemble at the vehicle. Ye Guangji and the two were chatting happily, but when they saw Cliff's tense face, they became serious.

"Jeffrey, have you two been attacked by Easter's head?"

"Nope. Several movements were discovered, and they were all confirmed to be small animals. ”

Cliff nodded and beckoned everyone to get into the car, knowing that it was a needle in a haystack to find it by manpower. From the beginning, he pinned his hopes on luck, and after dispersing, Esther was able to lose his mind and sneak attack. It was dark and they were going to go back to the town to find another way to find Easter.

The vehicle drove back to the lumberjack town, where they were greeted warmly by the townspeople. Today's results of several people have already been notified to the town through walkie-talkies.

"Hahaha, the heroes are back! Thank you for your contribution to Lumberjack Town. Mayor Mare, who greeted him in the front row of the crowd, hurried forward to hug Cliff.

"Thank you for not talking about it yet, the demon has not been wiped out yet, and there is still a possibility that he will be restored to the scourge with his remaining head. We've brought back the bodies of Blaise and Zibble, let's bury them quickly! Cliff didn't care about the mayor's face at all, and directly rejected his enthusiasm.

Ye Guangji assisted the two townspeople in moving the two corpses from the car, and the corpses were horrified and wrinkled. The mayor, who was close to observe, took a few steps back in shock, took a few gasps to calm down, and ordered his attendant, who was also panicked, to fetch the white cloth.

"They're also the heroes of the lumberjack town, and the town will pay for their burial. Not to mention these sad things, the celebration dinner is still being made, and everyone will go to rest first after a busy day. Mayor Qiang smiled and guided everyone into the temporary shelter that had not been built for a short time to rest.
