The residents of the small fishing village, like their houses, already have fish-like skin with signs of being parasitized by marine life everywhere.
Barnacles, shellfish, starfish.
Many fish-men have died around, and they all have this image. At most, he had a rag hanging on his body and a simple harpoon in his hand.
The back of this large fishman was almost covered in a thick shell by these things.
As for his mouth, it was as if the bite muscles were completely weak, and the entire lower jaw drooped casually.
But in the mouth that has lost the ability to bite, the teeth are densely packed all the way up the upper teeth.
It is completely unclear what the purpose of these teeth is.
Among the hunters who besieged him, two were armed with weapons similar to meat saws.
They are all enlarged versions of folding knives, but the folded and unfolded blades are more like a sharp arc than those of meat saws.
This should be a more old-school hunter weapon than the meat saw.
The other person’s weapon is a heavy and ferocious broadsword.
The big knife was serrated and thick, and the blade was divided into sections. I don’t know if it was due to the forging technique or other technical reasons.
The giant fishman is holding a large anchor in his hand, which is already rusty.
With the size of this anchor, it can even push it forward, and then the hunters' attacks will rarely hit him.
After all, he is tall, has long hands, and has long and big weapons. The distance advantage is real.
As long as you push the weapon forward and control the distance, the hunters will definitely feel very uncomfortable.
But when Lan En and Maria came over, the oily skin on his body had been torn to pieces, and a large amount of gray-white blood flowed from his body into the water on the ground and melted.
And in this situation, he was still attacking rashly without thinking, leaving an opening.
The hunters were delighted.
Dodge quickly to avoid the powerful but cumbersome attack, and then get close to the giant murloc, tearing open the flesh with weapons and splattering blood!
The three hunters were breathing heavily, but it was not because of exhaustion.
They gasped in excitement and uncontrollably like three hungry wild dogs after smelling the smell of meat.
Seeing someone approaching, the three of them slowed down their offensive slightly.
And the giant fishman who seemed to have no brain suddenly seemed to have a brain and pushed forward the big anchor in his hand.
"Maria?" Some of the hunters knew this blood noble, but after he asked in confusion, he couldn't help but curl up a bloody aura at the corner of his mouth. of arc.
"You're late! Maria! The hunting is almost over. The beast has been slaughtered. The murlocs here are our prey!"
"It's over. ?"
The long leather boots stepped on the stagnant sea water on the ground as she walked closer. The swan feathers on Maria's tricorn hat became wet and became limp and drooping, just like her depressed mood at this time.
"Yes, it's over." The hunter pressed his hat and smiled nervously, "It's scary to say that, but Ludwig, Germann, and the two old men... After things go in, what monster can survive the siege of four old hunters?"
"Then where are they now?" Maria asked with a headache, "My teacher is here now? "Where?"
"Go back to Yanan." The other hunter lowered his head as if he had taken a drug, and the hand holding the weapon was shaking uncontrollably. "After they hunted the beast, they couldn't wait to go back and study it."
"It was the Archbishop's order." The last hunter added, "He said that in order to solve gray blood disease, We have to study it quickly."
Maria frowned: "But didn't he say before that as long as the beast was killed, the plague would disappear naturally?"
"Who knows? "The old hunter lowered the brim of his hat and smiled in a hoarse voice that made people feel uncomfortable. "Who is interested?"
"There's nothing wrong with this. There are many things that can kill and bleed. He didn’t ask us to go back quickly, there is still a lot of fun here.”
Maria frowned.
Even though she was very familiar with the general mental state of the Yharnam hunters, she now began to feel that these people were no longer normal.
Can these people still smell anything other than the smell of blood in their noses now?
Burned wood? The fishy saltiness of the ocean?
What is going on with them?
The huge fish man found a house that had not been burned down and leaned against it. He held the big anchor forward in his hand, and a large set of teeth in his mouth that could not be closed followed his violent movements. Breathe in while making an amplified 'whoosh' sound with the air.
Maria looked at the three hunters who had their heads lowered and could not see clearly under the dark sky, and took two cautious steps back.
She held Lan En's hand and whispered: "We missed my teacher, let's go back."
But Maria was surprised on the way back. I found that she couldn't pull it!
The Blood Noble raised his head in confusion, and saw Lan En's amber cat eyes looking in a certain direction, shining slightly in the dark environment.
"What is that?" The demon hunter looked behind the three old hunters and said calmly, "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing?" The old hunter asked in confusion, and turned his head in the direction Lan En was looking.
Then he laughed in a low voice.
"Ah~ we did waste too much time."
It was a wooden stake with four or five murlocs tied to it with chains.
Each murloc had a leg chopped off, and nowOnly two fishmen were still alive, and the remaining ones had a gash on their heads that went straight into their skulls.
"Quick, let's start over! Quick!"
Lan En's question seemed to remind them. The old hunter sniffed and shouted with a nervous smile. .
"Come on! Let this big fish move! Let it bleed some more blood!"
The giant fishman panting with its back against the house seemed to have a premonition of something bad. From the depths of his large mouth that he could not close, a muddy roar came from his throat, and at the same time he excitedly pushed forward the big anchor in his hand.
One of the old hunters chuckled and walked to the wooden stake where the fishman was locked.
The mouth under the brim of his hat was exuding heat from his exaggerated smile.
‘Pah, pah, pah, pah’, the sticky sound of stampeding came frequently.
The old hunter's thick boots stepped carelessly on the motionless corpses of the fishmen.
The greasy corpses covering the floor made it a little difficult for him to stand still and aim.
Where to aim?
——The head of a living fish-man!
The giant fishman roared, and his legs, which had almost lost a layer of flesh, pushed themselves up from the house on their backs and approached the hunters.
The steps were heavy and painful but he was still getting closer.
Get close to the hunters who inflicted pain on him.
This is not something something like a lycanthrope patient can do!
Maria also loosened her hand holding Lan En in a daze at this time, and she seemed to have realized something.
"Wait!" She had seen so many facts beyond her imagination today that her originally cold and calm voice was filled with a lot of emotion.
"What are you going to do?!"
"Pfft!"
Before Maria could finish her question, a stream of gray-white blood came from the fish Spewed out of people's skulls. The female hunter's expression suddenly froze because of this.
The hunter who made the cut was just excitedly pulling out the knife that had sunk into the opponent's skull.
"Ah!!!"
The giant fishman roared and rushed over again waving the big anchor.
Now, both Lan En and Maria know why this giant fishman seems to have lost his mind after being beaten.
He's not brainless, he's just lost his mind.
"Come on!" the old hunter shouted happily, "shed some more blood!"
After that, he rushed towards the hunter who pulled the knife out of the skull. Giant fish man.
The blood was splashing, and the smell sounded like intoxicating singing to the old hunter.
The old hunter standing in front of Lan En and Maria was gasping for breath at the smell of blood, and the hand holding the thick sword was trembling.
"Hunting, hunting! Blood!"
He murmured in a low voice and was about to turn around and join in.Hunting for giant fishmen.
But just when he was about to turn around.
"Do you use this method to hunt intelligent creatures?"
Lan En put his hand on A sudden question came from the collar of his cloak.
The old hunter's body suddenly froze: "Smart creatures? What nonsense are you talking about, kid? They are beasts"
"Beasts bleed and they bleed, so they are beasts .As long as they can bleed, they are beasts."
"Listen, those sweet bloods are singing!"
The illogical whispers are like something from a nightmare. Bald words.
But Lan En and Maria, who have seen the whole process, know that these old hunters do it just like their own babble!
If a person acts completely according to what he talks in his sleep, there is no doubt that he is a madman!
Maria’s expression at this time was colder than frost.
She didn’t know what the hell happened today! But she knows one thing very well - hunters are not here to do this kind of work!
Their job is not to kill intelligent life!
They are a profession born to hunt wild beasts, a profession born from her teacher!
That's not what her teacher taught her.
"What's going on with you? Are the people here mutated by a curse?"
Maria lowered her head and slowly held her hand. On the hilt of the knife at the waist.
"Do Archbishop Lawrence, me, and my teachers know these things?!"
Seemingly feeling the chill of the two people in front of him, the old hunter stood next to him. After being stunned, he took a deep breath.
"Ah~ What a pity." The old hunter pressed his hat, grinned with a big smile, and raised his head. "It seems that you are also 'beasts'!"
Under the top hat, the old hunter revealed his eyes for the first time.
And the pupils in those eyes were like broken egg yolks, disintegrated and turbid to the point of being shapeless!
"Come on!" Not only were his pupils as turbid as broken egg yolks, but also hard and rough black hair began to grow on his face and body!
"Let us bleed more! Let us bleed more!"
A stench of lycanthropic patients suddenly appeared in this damp and gloomy village!
The first old hunter who showed his lycanthropic characteristics seemed like a starting signal.
The other two hunters present, their bodies wrapped in windbreakers and burqas made a heartbreaking sound of bones and flesh stretching.
The height of the whole person is at least half a head longer!
The bodies suddenly changed drastically and blood mist burst out, floating out from their bodies.
Make the stench of lycanthropic patients stronger in the air!
The degree of animalization of the old hunters is not deep, at least notThere is a direct loss of human appearance.
But they are far more dangerous than patients with deep lycanthropy. Because of their hunting career!
The thick and long machete in the old hunter’s hand brought up a series of water splashes and soil from the ground and slashed forward, heading towards Maria!
But before he could cut it completely with this knife.
"Bang!"
The water on the ground exploded with this kick!
Lan En, who was half a head taller than the old hunter who was suffering from lycanthropy, kicked the old hunter seven or eight meters away with one kick!
At the same time, he also tore off his raincoat with one hand.
"You like hunting very much, right?"
The cloak made a hunting sound in mid-air and was thrown out.
"So tonight."
"Lan En. Join the hunt!" The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please use your little hands to exit the reading mode. . Thank you
