94. The so-called "God"
"We are hunters and have an innate sense of smell." Gru's eyes flashed with pride, "Just by smelling your health, your recent diet... Use this to pick targets and distinguish them from others. ”
Dean gripped his gun tightly and smiled sarcastically, "So will the hunter shoot at his companion?" ”
"A small number of associations, most of them make this kind of behavior taboo and do not allow cannibalism, and I belong to the majority." Gru shook his head, a pale look on his face, and his tone was weak, "Can you take me to the hospital first, or help me heal my injuries?" ”
Dean shook his head, his icy gaze moving between the man and the freezer.
"You have nothing to do with the dead, and you're not Superman, Batman," Gru advised, "you can't go against me for the sake of such a bunch of scum from the bottom of society." ”
"Let me go, I will fulfill all your wishes."
Dean didn't deal with this guy to do justice, so he directly diverted the topic,
"You claim to be genetically and genetically influenced, so your father, Leighton Stone, your mother, Shannon Stone, and your brothers and sisters are also hunters?"
Gru looked away from his eyes and nodded after a moment.
"Glamorous in appearance, from high society, how decent." Dean pointed the gun at his third leg,
"I'm curious, how many people have you killed in your family of six so far?"
"Not much at all, one in 100,000 people in the world who die every year from disease, war, and herbs is enough to feed my family!"
"And in this society, as long as you have money, you can do whatever you want, and you can buy anything."
"And guess if you can buy your own life?"
Dean asked.
Gru eagerly persuaded, "Money, status, and women can't impress you? What about health and strength? ”
"What do you mean?"
"We hunters not only have an extraordinary sense of smell, but also have a long lifespan and a strong body, we can live twenty or thirty years longer than ordinary people, we can hardly get sick, from a cold to a cancer... Insulate us all! ”
"If we get rid of some of the most powerful individuals, we can even draw a little bit of strength and become stronger."
"You're not lying?" Dean clearly remembered that a special diet would be attacked by a virus, how could this group of hunters become stronger?
……
"No, no, I swear to God!" Gru looked at Dean with fiery eyes, "As long as you let me go, I will lead you into our family." You are already so strong as an ordinary person, when you become a hunter, you will stand at the top of the food chain in the future! ”
"God doesn't have time to regulate you heretical." Dean pondered for a moment and shook his head, "I'm not sick either, and I'll never become as disgusting as you." ”
"What's more, didn't you say before that monsters are all born, how can you transform them the day after tomorrow?"
"Mostly, but there's a being who can help you convert, yes!" As if convincing himself, Gru emphasized, "It can change your physique." ”
Dean blinked in surprise,
"Turn an ordinary person into a hunter? Who has that ability, Layton Stone? ”
"No, my father can't do it, I'm referring to another noble being."
Dean felt his heartbeat skip a beat and lowered his voice, "What's that?" ”
"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I know that in the last two years, Leighton and Shannon have found a powerful being outside, invited him back to the manor to be worshipped, and sacrificed to it every once in a while."
"Leighton calls it an ancestor, a god, a lost person from home, who can guide us in the future and make our talents stronger."
"Tell me about it?"
"I don't know much, Layton thinks I'm too young to let me see this god with my own eyes."
"But my brothers and sisters and I have begun to soften their attitudes rapidly, and they will show us to meet this god soon," Gru's face turned even paler, but there was a hint of excitement in his tone, "You go back with me to witness the 'God' together, and then join the clan and become blood brothers with us!" ”
Dean noticed that the other party was describing the thing with IT, which meant that it wasn't human.
He couldn't help but be glad that he hadn't killed this guy directly.
But tracking down a kidnapper, and eventually connecting with a supernatural being, is this what Tame calls the ubiquitous law of convergence?
As a response to ideas.
A hint flashed before his eyes.

……
Gru didn't notice the coldness in Dean's eyes at all, and he was still speaking passionately, his pale face had a sickly blush, and he completely gave up in order to survive, "We have become a race, and we will share strength, status, wealth, and longevity!" ”
"You're going to be the best class in Las Vegas."
Gru held out his hand to him,
"Come on, brother, don't give up your precious opportunity to evolve for the sake of those pathetic mortals!"
Dean shook his head, his cheeks dimming in the kitchen light,
"You've already colluded with your family, haven't you? He had set a lot of traps in the manor, and he would shoot me into a sieve just when I got in. ”
"How is that possible? I swear, today's action is purely personal! Gru didn't notice the other party's language trap in the slightest, "Layton they don't know!" ”
Dean stretched his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief, the next plan should be able to be implemented smoothly.
"I'm going to verify your credibility and answer me a few questions honestly."
"As long as you don't kill me, just ask."
……
Dean helped Gru back to the couch, got disinfectant alcohol and bandages, and redressed his wounds so that the guy wouldn't bleed to death.
Then Dean kept asking questions like a machine gun in his mouth, and even found a pen and paper and began to take notes.
"How often do you usually go back to the manor, and what kind of car do you drive?"
"Favorite style of dressing?"
"Which room do you sleep in?"
"How do you get along with your siblings?"
"What's the personality of your family?"
"What is your favorite dish to eat when you have a meal with your family?"
Gru's face gradually became surprised, this guy's question is very tricky, weird, and confusing.
"Wait, why do you keep asking me about my life and personal habits? Does this prove my credibility? ”
"The rule is that I ask, you answer." Dean's tone was cold, and his eyes were as sharp as knives, "One more nonsense, or dare to lie to me, and I will make your death ugly." ”
Gru's lips twitched, and he didn't dare to question it anymore.
Dean asked for another hour, until a white light came through the window, and he emptied Gru's stomach of the stock, and put away the two dense records with satisfaction.
Gru licked his chapped dry lips and asked with trepidation, "Can you drink saliva?" ”
"Well, you're doing well, go ahead." Dean smiled encouragingly at Gru and watched him limp towards the fridge.
He pulled out a silenced pistol and aimed it at the back of his blonde head.
Bang!
Blood splattered.
The corpse fell to the ground.
And the board in Dean's arms emitted a stream of light and heat.
You killed Gru Stone with +4 Mastery and Shooting Lv2 (4/300)
Dean looked at the bloody corpse and shook his head,
"How could I go home with you?"
"I'll just go back in your place."
Dean crouched down to collect a sample of Gru's blood, dragged the body into the freezer, placed it in the middle of a pile of dead people he had ruined, and slammed the door shut.
Let darkness and freezing air envelop Gru Stone for eternity.
"You like to freeze people into popsicles so much, and you can taste it yourself."
"Apologize to those unjust souls again."
……
Next, Dean took out the board and summoned the Gru soul that had just been absorbed, and tortured it again, taking the previous two records and comparing them one by one.
After confirming that it is correct, take it away.
You killed a ghost, Mastery +1, Combat lv2 (89/300)
……
Dean glanced at the mimicry ability in the system:
