Chapter 9

"Hoo...hoo..."

Joseph staggered and supported the wall, took a deep breath, and finally woke up in the cold wind and rain.

The surrounding streets are deserted, and the water in the edge area has overflowed the sidewalks. Under the reflection of the horse lanterns hanging in front of the nearby shops, it is like a river that is gradually rising.

Continuous heavy rain warnings have evacuated nearly one-tenth of the ordinary people in Nuojin's upper city to a safe area.

Some thirty-two streets had been turned into empty alleys.

There is no lack of secret operation and command of the Secret Ritual Tower.

Because those stupid hunters brought a Magic Mirror Egg into Nuojin City, and now there is another infighting, which makes the Magic Mirror Egg disappear, which affects the nerves of everyone in Nuojin City.

Maybe in the near future, there will be an unknown dream beast roaring out from the crack of the dream, bringing blood and fire.

The pain in the brain gradually went away, and the ravings in the ear also disappeared.

He looked at his hands and smiled wryly.

In addition to the loss of his right arm and the hidden injuries that erupted on his body, there was another important reason for the retirement of the brilliant knight Joseph.

He was once the wielder of the magic sword Kendra.

That weird ancient sword, because of the madness and death of the first owner, has a maddening curse.

Only a knight of great strength and integrity, with perfect spirit and will, can overcome this curse.

The former Joseph was such a powerful knight.

But now he is old and disabled.

Has lost such qualifications.

But the next successor of the magic sword has not been found yet, but he has already begun to bear the backlash of this sword.

Every night in the middle of the night, he can always see the huge shadows cruising in the city, and hear the deep whispers of Kendela's madness, which has intensified recently.

He was tormented.

...

In front of a towering abandoned church.

Ji Zhixu was holding a cane, and the black windbreaker on his body was rattling, looking up at the round glass window of the church that was blazing into the sky.

The sound of shouting and killing kept coming, and the chaotic etheric fluctuations put the whole area in a carnival-like bloody atmosphere, and the glass windows shattered one after another.

Glittering shards of entrails and blood splattered across the church's vine-covered walls.

The ground is full of corpses, which are rapidly carbonizing and turning into ashes.

Behind her, those who stood silently were her most loyal subordinates.

Kay, Max and Ryan.

As the second leader of the second largest hunter organization "White Wolf", Ji Zhixu's original direct subordinates were of course more than these three people.

But she was unforgivably betrayed, returned, and of course the rest became corpses.

The egg of the magic mirror is in the larval state before hatching, and has the ability to seduce people's minds, causing people to have evil thoughts and the idea of ​​possessing it.

Once the first person accidentally looks directly at it, things get out of hand.

Now, the heavy rain in Nuojin has become a battlefield for hunters.

Kai and Max were her subordinates who had followed her from the beginning, and they were also her father's subordinates.

The spirit has long been branded with runes by the white wizard supported by the family, so it can preserve the mind under the erosion of the magic mirror egg.

As for Ryan, who surrendered not long ago, he was voluntarily branded, and in the hunter organization "White Wolf", he belongs to the subordinate of the first leader Herris.

As for the reason for surrender, it is also very simple.

Because this guy witnessed Ji Zhixu's "beast-like" posture, brutal methods, determination to revenge, and the pile of corpses behind him when he fought after his return.

"Miss, it has been confirmed that the Egg of the Magic Mirror is in the hands of Herris. He has become a complete lunatic. After taking away the Egg of the Magic Mirror, he launched a massacre within the hunter organization."

Kai whispered beside him.

Known as the "Black Rose", she is tall and glamorous, with black lip gloss on her lips and a row of earrings hanging on her ears.

Wearing a blouse, tight trousers, and high-top Martin boots, she looks like a normal fashion girl.

However, the jagged long knife still dripping blood in her hand and the blood splattered on her body showed her danger.

He is not only a hunter who hunts down dream beasts, but also a villain who kills like hemp.

She looked into the church with a little worry: "Our people may not be strong enough. Herris has joined forces with the third leader Kaji. This attack may end without a problem."

Max nodded, and said: "Herris is powerful, and he is the closest to the panic-level existence among the white wolves. Although Kaji's strength is slightly weaker, most of the people in the organization can be said to be trained by him. Although Herris The insanity of the people made many people think of defecting, but there are still many people who join them, and our chances of winning are very small.”

Ryan glanced at Ji Zhixu with a little fear, and said with a flattering smile: "Although the leader... no, Harris and the others are very strong, but the boss is not bad!"

"He's just close to the panic level, but the boss is a real panic level! As long as he transforms into a beast, what kind of Herris, what kind of Kaji, are all dead souls under the sword!"

Although he doesn't know what rank Ji Zhixu is, in short, flattering is never wrong.

He doesn't know how there is a hunter who can still maintain reason in a highly animalized state, but strong is strong. He admits that he is just a piece of grass. Whoever is strong will follow whoever is strong. This is the world. truth.

Of course, it would be even better if he could also get a way to control the foul blood.

"Shua!"

Ji Zhixu threw off his cane, and a sharp blade spun out: "Hunters never turn back."

"Go, go in, this will be the final battle."

This abandoned church was built by the Plague Church.

The Plague Church used to be the first church, but then the Truth quickly rose up and took its place, and a large number of churches were abandoned.

The battle in the church was drawing to a close, and the remains of the hunters were everywhere.

Ji Zhixu killed the last blocker and stepped into the hall.

Standing under the glass window painted with wavy patterns is Kaji, the third leader of the White Wolf.

He was a tall and thin man, wearing a priest-like black robe, with a long sickle standing behind his back, bowing his head as if praying, the dim light outside reflected colorful ripples from the glass windows, and fell on him.

Rainwater leaked in from the dilapidated ceiling and fell to the ground in puddles.

"Where's Harris?"

Kay asked.

"Ho..." Kaki's head moved and made a strange bubble sound.

"wrong!"

Ji Zhixu's pupils shrank, and he rushed forward in two steps in three steps, stretched out his hand to press the man's shoulder and pushed.

Kaki's neck was thrown back, revealing a twisted, pained face.

There was a bloody gash on his neck.

Blood dripped continuously on the ground.

Everyone's face changed suddenly.

The long sickle handle was not carried behind his back, but pierced through his body, nailing him to the church floor.

"Injections! Quick!"

"yes!"

Max hurriedly handed over the spare filthy blood injection, and Ji Zhixu reached out to take it, and plunged the needle into Kaji's heart, pushing all of them.

The large amount of foul blood took effect quickly, and the wound on Kaji's neck squirmed and healed in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, his eyes rolled white and fluttered, and finally turned into animal pupils.

"Ho ho..."

The man's teeth and nails grew longer, his hair grew rapidly, and he screamed in pain.

"Answer me! Where's Herris! Did he take the egg of the magic mirror away?!" Ji Zhixu stared into his eyes and shouted.

Kaji nodded, opened his mouth wide, and giggled, his voice was like a gnat: "He... will come..."

His eyes froze for an instant and froze.

Hairs like dead branches grew out of his internal organs, then burrowed in, and finally took away the rest of his life.

"Damn it!"

Ji Zhixu punched the wall, looking at the messy hall.

Kai whispered: "I will start a search immediately."

Max suggested: "Miss, why don't you ask Mr. Heywood, as the wizard supported by the family, I think he will not refuse to help."

"no need."

"You guys continue to search." Ji Zhixu let out a long breath: "Ryan come with me."

Ryan was a little apprehensive: "Where are you going?"

"Twenty-third Street."
