Outside the wall, Kitahara.

All the trees shook in unison, and the howling cold wind blocked the hunters' "sense of smell"

"Take it easy, little ghost. Yi Mu swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, and pointed out to a few timid and brave boys. Sometimes vigilance can really save one's life, but sometimes it's oneself that scares oneself. Just like these little ghosts, looking around, the wind is loud. The miserable white face makes people think that they have bumped into a ghost, even if they are outsiders, they will know that this kind of face is unlucky at a glance.

There was no movement in all directions, and their main task was to dislodge the uninvited guests and avoid any impact on the thing.

The 756 Extramural Investigation Incident had taught them that those things weren't mindless. There's a good chance that a new lord has emerged among them. This is just speculation, in the assassination ten years ago, they had just succeeded in killing the fledgling newborn lords, and they would not be able to produce new lords in a short period of time, and even if they did, it would take a long time for the new lords to rule over their "people".

There is such a legend in the myths and legends of the territory: according to legend, every hundred years in the world, a demon king will descend to the alien race. He will lead his people away from the light of God and turn the calamity back to the land of the hills. Therefore, at the beginning of the advent of the demon king, the warriors of the land of the hills will step through the enchantment of the gods and go to the wasteland to find the demon king, in order to kill him in infancy. However, the disaster still came, and none of the warriors returned.

The demon king is the lord, and the lord is the leader who can gather monsters. They don't have the same rough flesh as normal monsters, so if they get near by hunters, they are sure to die.

In 799, he killed the seventh leader of the monster, and in 815, under the pressure of the royal palace, the hunters and knights found the eighth leader in a barren mountain in the northern plains, and named him "Demon Star". They slain it at a terrible price, and many of the best hunters have been buried in a foreign land ever since, while all the glory goes to the Broken Knights who have been watching from the sidelines. As for the head of the magic star, it may be being stored in a jar by some knight as glory.

Yi Mu dusted off the remaining cigarette butts and suddenly rode away.

"Don't come with you, when the time comes, go back to Stone City to change shifts. ”

The voice gradually faded away, several people were stunned, Yi Mu went straight to the depths of the northern plains, a few people did not follow, did not follow, in the end, they could only listen to his orders, and when the time came to return to the nest to change people.

Old hunters tend to be able to smell more, which is especially important in the dark of night, after being deprived of vision. He leaped from his horse, not even using a maneuvering arrow, and in mid-air he stretched out his hunting knife like a giant eagle in the air, and then slashed into the darkness and no one, and with a snort, two sparks burst out, and then annihilated.

The two lights on the horse's back came from far and near, and he climbed onto the horse's back and disappeared away.

On the dead tree, the carapace-covered monster Rom, his head rolled down to the side of the dirt road, and the dark blood froze into lumps.

Slaughter, whoever is strong will survive. Yi Mu lit another cigarette for himself.

"Dead, dying fast. ”

Mu Shiyu said calmly, as if what she was in front of was not a corpse, but a puppet prop.

He ...... As for the head, there are no traces of a fight here. ”

Xia Ming hurriedly looked for words to stay away from the corpse and look around. Along the way, he felt that something was following them, and the surrounding environment was dark with a little ghostly light, like entering the wizarding world depicted in the books.

"Yes. Mu Siyu said to him. "The reason why we didn't was because what we were seeing was an illusion. It's the rule, but I don't know, I just know that there are a lot of ghost legends here. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, something like cold water passed from Xia Ming's back, the coolness penetrated through his skin, and a cold hand gently grabbed his heart. He turned his head sharply, and a translucent white-robed figure stood in front of him, his arms bent, and the grip of his hand that emerged from the cuffs was only white bones!

"Hallucinations...... Xia Ming's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he fell to the ground, his heart as if it was about to jump out of his ribs.

Hearing Xia Ming's ghost-like voice, Mu Shiyu also turned his head and frowned: "Of course it's a phantom ......."

She was stunned for a moment, then the hunting knife was unsheathed and slashed the ghost to pieces.

"Hey, are you alright? ”

Seeing Xia Ming sitting on the ground in a demented state like a soulless, Mu Shiyu asked worriedly.

"I didn't ...... Is this really a hallucination?"

Xia Ming was still doubting what he felt just now, and he was a little skeptical that there were really ghosts in the world.

"Hallucinations. Mu Shiyu said firmly.

"You see, the illusion is gone. She pointed to the corpse that was actually lying in the snow. The surrounding environment is also exposed, and it is not as quiet as before. The bitter cold wind is like a knife at this moment, and the mysterious pale green light has also receded. Falling on the snow, the flame of the lamp seemed to be extinguished.

"We can follow these footprints. ”

Mu Shiyu said. She lifted the lamp and crouched down in front of the rows of huge footprints.

"You see, he's been here, and the footprints have stopped here, and it's still a long way from the corpse. The robe and the scepter belonged to the messenger, and inside the scepter was a sword, which belonged to the knight, and the messenger himself was a knight. It is impossible for a knight to die easily, especially a messenger. Unless...... He was sneak attacked. How the hell did that hunter join forces with monsters?"

She finally asked a heavy question that Xia Ming had never thought of.

The monster is a hunter, the demon is a religious statement, and you still expect the demon and the human to live in harmony? No one will believe it.

Xia Ming only knew that humans were the natural enemies of monsters, and monsters were the natural enemies of humans, and the only way to meet the two was the victory or defeat of the knife and the claw.

Why do the walls of the world exist, because monsters will slaughter them. Yes, slaughter, pure slaughter, not resources, not food.

"How is it possible, there must be some misunderstanding in between. Xia Ming said in surprise.

"Perhaps, but we should pay attention to this hunter, who always appears and disappears with monsters. Mu Siyu was also a little shaken by his opinion.

"Is it possible for humans to tame monsters. Xia Ming asked.

"No way, because no one has ever tried it. Even if it can be tamed, it is not allowed by the world, so no one wants to do it. ”

Mu Siyu knew a lot more than he did, as she was born into a family of hunters, and like Orion, they took their rules of survival very seriously. Survival is not to be neglected.

"Remember the monster you used on the day of the test?" she asked.

Xia Ming said: "Of course I remember. ”

"When they were brought back, they were only hatchlings, and the people in the military tried to tame them, but unfortunately it was impossible. So it's okay to scare you when you deal with it, but it can't scare me. But something very strange happened that day. Mu Shiyu said proudly, lowering his head at the same time, and turned his face sideways in confusion.

"You're trying to say that those monsters haven't been dealt with. Even from outside the wall. Xia Ming said.

"No, those executors, the sergeants on the train, they died too strangely. Their deaths were caused by something else, and the headmaster lied to us. With her keen hunter's sense of smell, how could those monsters not notice when they approached.

"You think so too?" Xia Ming said in horror.

"The executor of the fireroom is dead, in the fireroom. It was impossible to get in with the size of a spider, but someone went in and killed him, imitating the corrosive means of blood, and destroying the train. But I never understood why they were doing this. I heard that there was an incident outside the wall that day? Do you know what it is?"

Mu Shiyu nodded and said, "The 756th Extramural Survey Corps was wiped out. Most of them walked out of this academy. ”

In the perception of the people of the territorial world, the Military Academy Academy is an inaccessible academy that does not even have a name. Anyone who has read a brief history of the Military Academy understands this. But in the eyes of some people, the military academy is a place full of mysteries, such as some knight families who look down on hunters, and their own nobility is more and more disdainful of this because of curiosity, such as Mu Shiyu and other descendants of these hunter families, they all want to enter this academy, for example, in the eyes of some ordinary people, they are legendary warriors who fight against demons.

"They never act as a whole, unless there is a new lord. Ten years ago, we killed a lord, and in ten years' time, they can't give birth to another lord. By the way, do you know what a lord is? Have you read the history of monsters?"

"Storm Society, kill the leader of the monster head in 799, the monster head is its code name, and the lord is the leader, which means that he can command the army. ”

Mu Shiyu said in a deep voice: "Many people should have noticed the flying puppets used for communication in those nights, but only a few people know that they are actually the news of the deceased. Everyone who steps out of the wall carries one with them, and once they die, these puppets bring their souls back home. ”

"Wouldn't the world be unjust if there were no souls, you say? At this, her tone became more and more deep.

Xia Ming guessed that she might have remembered her absent parents. It was she who told him that there were no ghosts in this world, and this time she asked him if there was such a thing. What an incomprehensible monster a girl is.

AnswerYes, if there is no soul in this world, then why is there still a religion, why are there still so many people who believe in it devoutly, as long as you can live happily, those who care about you will definitely be happy in the other world...... No, no, Xia Ming, when did you become so weird? He immediately discarded the answer.

Answer: No, there is no fairness in this world, but I can use my hunting knife to make some things fairer. As long as my hunting knife is faster and sharper, the more fair I will get. What is fair, hunting knives have the final say...... Still no, Xia Ming was at a loss as to why he had such a second statement, and there was a faint suspicion of misdirection.

"If you think there is, then there is, if there is none, there is none. ”

Xia Ming pondered for a long time, a little anxious in the face of Mu Shiyu's gaze, and finally could only say perfunctorily.

Xia Ming listened to her smile and didn't comment on his perfunctory comments. But she probably didn't really care about her parents, she just wanted to laugh at him. But Xia Ming couldn't guess for sure, this girl who occasionally got nervous was like a book that she couldn't read.
