Chapter 66: The Shepherd

"Hunting Layer, some mysterious layer in the Shadow World?"

Listening to George's explanation, Gune immediately calmed down and listened carefully.

"Actually, after I awakened the transcendent profession 'Time Hunter', I was able to feel and see the existence of the hunting layer. ”

"For example, now, I can see the dim and dilapidated projection shine on my body on the hunting floor, and everything around me is full of danger. ”

"When I grew up, I understood that I was looking at a deep inner world. ”

"It's a very strange and dangerous inner world, which I call the 'Hunting Layer'. ”

"Inside the hunting level. ”

"There's a very strange creature, they're humanoid. With two slender legs and claws, a pair of flesh-wing wings, and the speed of flight is amazing. ”

"There are a pair of strange arms under the wings, and these arms can be extremely long and can be extremely lethal. ”

"They are slender, dark, and have three eyes on their foreheads, and they have strong stereoscopic vision and perception abilities. ”

"It's almost impossible to get close quietly. ”

"This creature, at the Transcendent First Order, has a height of five meters. ”

And as they grow in strength, so does their size. ”

"It's basically a two-meter look. ”

"Every time they are in the realm, their strength will skyrocket. ”

"Of course, the most important point, I haven't said yet. ”

"That's it...... They have a terrible tongue. ”

"With this tongue, they can penetrate their power into reality within the hunting layer and lick the time of cannibalism. ”

"Licking time?" said Gune's expression moved slightly.

"Time is an abstract concept, and this thing can lick it?"

"Or is it that in this transcendent world, time also has special transcendent attributes?"

Gune asked suddenly after a deep sigh.

"Are you sure it's licking time?"

"Sure. George nodded slightly.

"Because...... I was able to see...... Time!"

"See the time. Gune was stunned.

"Okay, this time hunter, it's still ...... It's really extraordinary. Goune spread his hands.

Then Goune continued: "What is the situation after being licked?"

"Time is lost by licking, and once time is lost, it will inevitably be corrected, and in the process of correction, the person who loses time will be washed away by mysterious forces. ”

"The erosion is intuitively manifested in the aging of the body, soul, and body functions, as well as the loss of transcendent characteristics. This is done unconsciously and largely unnoticed. ”

"It's really weird. Goune groaned and nodded.

George continued.

"These guys who can lick life and make humans lose their lives, I call them 'Death Beasts'. ”

"They are indeed the ones who can lead the Grim Reaper forward, and they are called the Death Beasts, which is quite a fit. Gune thought to himself.

"The Reaper Beasts are powerful and cunning and clever at the same time, and they specialize in licking and feeding on humans who have long lives, especially when they are asleep. ”

"At the hunting level, when you are licked, you can lick and eat humans for two or three days in one bite. ”

"The scariest part is that kind of creature, every time they lick and eat, they don't catch a special lick, they will lick and eat almost everyone in the vicinity, and each one will lick and eat a dozen mouthfuls and then put it down. ”

"This thing...... Wool, and know how to separate it, this level of intelligence crushes many people!"

"Before, you asked me, why didn't you report to the top of the Transcendental Association?"

George spoke slowly.

"Because, when I was younger, I told my teacher, and my teacher told me to keep it a secret and not tell anyone anyway. ”

"In fact, the decision my teacher made for me was very correct. ”

"Because...... These creatures are some mysterious beings...... In the grazing!"

"A mysterious existence that takes the time of human life as a water weed...... And grazing. Gune's eyes narrowed slightly, and his fists clenched much tighter.

This simply doesn't treat us humans as human beings, but completely treats human beings as walking flesh and blood.

"And there is more than one herder. George said softly.

"And in the Magnolia Transcendent Association, there is their shadow. ”

"And that's why I don't dare say it. ”

"Once I report it, I'm afraid I'm not far from death. ”

"I don't know if you have noticed, with the rise of extraordinary steam machinery, those evil spirits and alien races have also surged undercurrents. ”

"The original scattered alien races in the depths of the Alto Mountains in the north have also cooperated against us humans. ”

"You should also know that there are people who are secretly pushing the trouble, and these herders are one of the driving forces. ”

"Those guys who herd the Death Beast and lick human life don't care about human life at all, human beings are just walking flesh and grass in their eyes. ”

As George finished speaking, both fell into a brief silence.

Ignoring the mysterious existence of life, herding strange monsters that can lick time, and fueling the tide of the times.

Guine's words echoed in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This world is more complex and mysterious than I imagined. ”

After a moment of thought, Googne looked at George.

"You're not afraid that I'll tell the news?"

"Of course I'm afraid. ”

"But I need more help from strong team-mates. ”

"Teammates, help?" said Googne, chewing on the word.

"You've been in contact with them?"

"Yes, when I was Transcendent Second Order, I was already very powerful. I think I should be able to kill a first-order Reaper Beast. ”

"I borrowed the power of time to enter the hunting layer and hunt a first-order death beast. ”

"As a result, I almost died, and that guy, he escaped. ”

"Escaped. Gune thought to himself.

"That Death God Beast is powerful, beyond imagination, I can't deal with it alone, besides, sometimes, these death God Beasts don't act alone, it's possible to form groups of three or five. ”

"I'm alone, and I'm weak after all. And that's why I wanted to find a powerful partner to hunt these Death Beasts together. ”

"I can use my ability to bring transcendents who are one rank lower than me into the hunting layer. ”

"Of all the transcendents I have encountered, I have never felt such a strong sense of danger in the Transcendent Order. ”

"That's why you're coming to me?" Gune continued softly.

"Yes, I need teammates like you, so I'm willing to take that risk. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Gune slowly spoke again.

"I'm a spell artist, and I'm currently working on world framing, deep learning of the shadow world, and even parsing runes. ”

"The hunting layer you are talking about is a mysterious layer of the shadow world. ”

"Entering it should be of great help to my studies. ”

"So, you're lucky that I'm willing to work with you. Goune said softly.

"Hoo ......"

Seeing that Gune promised himself, George breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

"Although you say that you are invincible in the first order, you may not be able to kill those first-order death beasts. ”

"I don't like to hear what you say. Gune said secretly.

"Perhaps!" said Gugne, who did not argue too much.

"In our Suge Ruins City, there are two Death God Beasts that are being grazed, one is a second-order and the other is a third-order, and they have been licking and eating for many years. ”

"The short life expectancy of many laborers who sell coolies to earn money is largely caused by the Death Beast. ”

"If you let them continue to grow, it's hard to predict what will happen in the future. ”

"My target is that second-order Reaper Beast. ”

"I am currently at the third-order level, and I can bring second-order transcendents into it. ”

"So, when you are promoted to the second order, and you reach the peak of the second order. Only then will we have a chance to join forces and destroy that second-order Death God Beast. ”

"It's going to take a while, and now, there's no rush. ”

"And after this hunt, we have to hide our tracks so that the herders can't find us. ”

"After all, the existence of such a creature is no small feat to be grazed. ”

"Hmm. Gune bowed slightly.

After some more discussion about the details, the two of them stopped.

Goune looked softly out into the night.

"Time hunters, hunting layers, prey. ”

Gune chewed on some of the relationships gently.

"I don't think there's something George told me about, but I can tell. ”

"This hunt ...... It should help him somewhat, but that's not the point. ”

"The point is, this guy should also feel his own specialness, and he doesn't want our world to be wantonly played with by those terrifying beings, otherwise it would be better for him to ignore it. ”

"It's a good thing that such a length, even a risk, came to contact me, and it's clear that this is a guy with a sense of justice. At the same time, I sensed that what this guy said was indeed true. ”

"Of course, while there is a high probability of believing in the other party, it is also necessary to be more careful. ”

"For me...... I need to take this opportunity to expand my deep understanding and perception of this world, which is very important for my rune path...... Very important. ”

"Secondly...... Eliminating the herding of those mysterious beings is indeed what should be done, and in any case, I am also a member of the flesh ranch in their eyes. ”

"If I am silent now, sooner or later, the death beast will lick and eat my head, and at that time, there will be no one to speak for me. ”

"Hoo ......"

Gune let out a soft breath and looked out into the deep darkness of the night.

The depths of the strange and grotesque transcendent world, like the city shrouded in the night, can faintly see the outline, but the horror and mystery in the darkness cannot be seen clearly.
