The wolf catcher thought Tang Jiumin was a very nice person because he invited him to drink yesterday, but when he heard what Tang Jiumin said, he still felt a little funny.
"Friend, don't tell me, you can take me to kill werewolves at night, right?"
The wolf catcher pointed at Tang Jiumin's hand.
"Let me guess, you don't even have a callus on your hand, and you don't look like someone who often uses guns. You are obviously a novice, and you have no experience fighting werewolves. How can you help me?"
However, what surprised the wolf catcher was that after hearing what he said, the other party was not angry at all, but looked at him with a mysterious tone.
"Friend, you have to know that sometimes intelligence and brains are also important."
"A commoner who can't even hold a silver plate, a commoner who bursts out of his clothes and pants in the morning, a commoner who has to buy new clothes."
"Huh?"
After hearing these two words from Tang Jiumin, the wolf catcher suddenly showed an interested look and also lowered his voice: "Are you sure?"
"seen it myself."
"very good."
At this time, the wolf catcher suddenly stood up and took two steps back and forth.
"In this small town, even in the days approaching the blood moon night, it is forbidden to shoot during the day, otherwise you will be taken to the Sheriff's Department."
"and……"
"If we kill him in human form, there is no way to prove that he is a werewolf."
"I know." Tang Jiumin replied: "So the most labor-saving way is to kill him when he transforms into a werewolf. This way, you don't have to waste expensive special silver bullets."
While saying this, Tang Jiumin clicked on the opponent's shotgun.
The wolf catcher also looked at the two silver bullets in the bag, nodded knowingly, and his expression became slightly serious.
Indeed, this kind of silver bullet requires one less bullet. If you can kill the opponent when he is transforming into a werewolf, you can not only prove the opponent's werewolf identity, but also reduce bullet consumption.
It's a very good idea.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's do it together? If we make money by then, each of us will get half of it!" the wolf catcher said generously.
"No, I don't need this..." The wolf catcher wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Tang Jiumin, "We can wait until this matter is resolved."
The two left the tavern, walked through several streets, entered an alley, and finally stopped at the entrance of a carpenter's shop deep in the alley.
"right here?"
Tang Jiumin nodded: "I checked this person and found that he has been living alone since he was 18 years old."
The wolf catcher asked: "No parents?"
"Yes, but after he turned 18, he moved out and lived on his own. By the way, what does 18 mean to a werewolf?"
"It means that the bloodline is awakened. At the age of 18, those with werewolf bloodline will activate the werewolf bloodline in their body, and he will find changes in his body."
"Obviously, the guy you're talking about woke up at the age of 18."
Upon hearing this, Tang Jiumin subconsciously repeated it, and then he smiled: "It seems that this blood moon night is the first blood moon night he has experienced."
"No wonder he was so careless and was discovered by me, a layman. If it were any werewolf who had experienced the night of the blood moon, I am afraid that the traces would have been cleaned up long ago, and I would not have discovered it easily."
The werewolf hunter looked at Tang Jiumin with approval. He found that although this friend was a novice in hunting werewolves, his insight was amazing.
"Yes, it is indeed as you said. It is indeed the first time for him to become a werewolf. It may even be the first time for him to become a werewolf last night, which is why he is so hasty and uncomfortable to adapt." The wolf catcher said.
Tang Jiumin asked: "When he turns into a werewolf, will he have his own consciousness?"
"They have no self-awareness when they become werewolves, but when they return to their human state, they will clearly remember the memories of being in their werewolf state." When the wolf hunter said this, his eyes became profound.
He was about to explain further, but he heard Tang Jiumin say what he wanted to explain.
"So that's it. That means they have the memory of werewolves, but they can't control their behavior in the werewolf state."
"……you are right."
The wolf catcher looked at Tang Jiumin in surprise and continued:
"So, a werewolf is a terrifying creature, because in the human state, even if he is a good person, once he turns into a werewolf, he cannot control his wild nature and will only be immersed in killing."
"Time is up."
"At this point in time, those werewolves will begin to transform from human to werewolf state. This process is relatively slow and will probably last for a while. Our opportunity has come."
"promise."
Tang Jiumin nodded in the direction of the carpenter's shop: "The door is closed, should we rush in?"
"By the way, I'm curious. After he turned into a werewolf, did he know how to open the door and get out? It seems that the door was not damaged when he turned into a werewolf last night."
"That's a good question." The wolf hunter shrugged.
"Becoming a werewolf does not mean losing all memories. They still have some deep memories of the human state, and these memories have become part of their instincts."
"Okay, don't waste time. If you don't go in, you will see a werewolf open the door and come out."
While telling cold jokes, the wolf catcher put a few shells into the shotgun and shot three times at the door of the carpenter's shop.
It didn't hit the door directly, but hit the gap between the door three times in a row.
Tang Jiumin stepped forward and pushed hard at the door.
The originally sturdy door opened.
As soon as they entered the carpenter's shop, Tang Jiumin and the werewolf catcher heard a roar. In front of their eyes, a black shadow flashed past and ran directly into the deep room of the carpenter's shop.
Soon, there was a roar that sounded like a mixture of humans and wild wolves, which was particularly strange.
"Get out...ooh...howl...go..."
The two people who stepped into the gate couldn't help but look at each other. The wolf catcher directly raised the shotgun in his hand and walked forward slowly. Tang Jiumin also clenched his pistol and followed behind him.
Among the people who entered the trial, only Liu Ziyun and Zhong Linrong had shooting experience, and the others did not, including Tang Jiumin.
but! Tang Jiumin's occupation during his lifetime brought him into frequent contact with people holding guns.
At the very least, Tang Jiumin could guarantee that no one among these people could match the number of times someone had a gun pointed at his head.
Of course, Tang Jiumin has not been idle during the past two days.
Hanging out in taverns, testing guns outside the town, and talking to many gunmen, Tang Jiumin tried hard to understand how to use the revolver.
It's just that for him, there is only theory and no actual combat.
This also led to the wolf catcher feeling that Tang Jiumin's posture when holding the gun was a bit awkward, his body was tense, and he did not look like a skilled shooter at all.
Tang Jiumin held the gun with both hands at the same time and stared at the front seriously.
He knew that the next step would be to test his shooting ability, which happened to be his weakness.
"Roar--!"
"Roar!!!"
The roars in the room were getting muddier and muddier. They originally contained some incomprehensible human language, but at this time, the roars were becoming more and more like the roars of wild beasts.
The sound is getting louder and louder.
The wolf catcher walked to the door of the house lightly, put the barrel of his gun close to the door, slowly opened a corner, and looked inside. Then he stretched out his left hand and pointed at the wall and window of the house.
Tang Jiumin walked over knowingly and squatted down against the wall. The roar coming from inside became louder and clearer.
Obviously, there was a wall between the werewolf and Tang Jiumin.
Tang Jiumin gently touched the bottom of the window and slowly lifted it up. At the same time, he held the pistol tightly in his right hand and pointed it at the inside of the window.
At this moment, Tang Jiumin was holding his breath, his body was tense, and he was even trembling slightly.
For Tang Jiumin, this was the first time he faced a werewolf, and it was also the first time he used firearms in actual combat.
Tang Jiumin leaned half of his body under the window.
The roar in his ears grew louder and louder, and soon it became more and more like a wolf's howl.
Tang Jiumin looked towards the werewolf. At this time, the werewolf was already squatting at the door and could go in at any time.
The wolf catcher nodded vigorously at Tang Jiumin, pointed his left hand at the window, and made a gesture.
This is for him to attack the werewolf inside.
To attack, or not to attack?
Tang Jiumin weighed it in his mind for a moment before making a decision.
He opened the window with his left hand and reached into the room with a gun in his right hand. He didn't even look into the window. As soon as he reached in, he blindly scanned the room.
After two consecutive shots, the recoil almost made him lose his grip on the pistol.
After the gunfire, the wolf inside howled louder, and you could even hear the other party's anger.
After the two shots, Tang Jiumin quickly retracted his right hand, and the moment he retracted his right hand, the entire window was directly smashed to pieces by the wolf's claws.
And at the moment when the window shattered, the werewolf kicked open the door hard, rushed in, and shot inside without looking.
The wolf's howl turned into a scream.
The werewolf didn't dare to relax, and fired several more shots inside, and used the brief light emitted by the shots to identify the werewolf's location.
After the first shot, almost all the shots behind the werewolf were shot, and every shot hit the werewolf.
Outside the wall, after deliberately shooting blindly to alert the werewolf, Tang Jiumin's whole body couldn't stop trembling.
The claw that the werewolf struck just now was less than three centimeters away from his right hand. If he had been slower for half a second, his arm might have been severed by the werewolf's claw.
While Tang Jiumin was secretly adjusting his nervousness, the werewolf's screams inside gradually became quieter. You could hear the werewolf's weakness from the sound without even looking.
"Huh..." Tang Jiumin let out a deep breath and slowly stood up against the wall.
The gunfire in the room had stopped, and the sound of a wolf hunter could be heard.
"Hey, Don, I've taken care of the werewolf, you can come in!"
On the way here, Tang Jiumin told the werewolf his name.
Of course, they don’t understand the names of Easterners.
Tang Jiu Minxu held on to the wall and slowly walked into the room, where he saw the werewolf lighting a candle in the room.
As soon as the candle was lit, Tang Jiumin could clearly see the werewolf on the ground.
Can't exactly be called a werewolf.
At this time, the corpse on the ground only showed many werewolf characteristics. For example, a lot of werewolf fur grew on the upper body, and the entire head was not much different from the werewolf head seen in the morning.
As far as the upper body of the corpse is concerned, it has almost transformed into a werewolf state, but the lower body still retains much of the human body.
Probably the werewolf transformation starts with the upper body, so this is a corpse that has not completely transformed into a werewolf.
"The time between us is just right. This guy hasn't completely turned into a werewolf, so he hid in the room and didn't fight head-on. It would be an advantage for us," the werewolf said.
The entire werewolf corpse had many bullet holes in the upper body, especially the head, which was almost shattered. The wall deep in the room was stained red with blood.
"So this is the werewolf..." Tang Jiumin couldn't help but said, staring at the corpse without turning his eyes.
The werewolf's corpse had reached a height of more than two meters, and its palms were about as big as the combined palms of four or five adult male humans.
Seeing this, Tang Jiumin thought of the corpses he had seen killed by werewolves. It seemed that the werewolves were actually more ferocious than he thought.
"Hahaha, it was done successfully, how do you feel?" The werewolf hunter walked up to Tang Jiumin, feeling happy, and patted Tang Jiumin's shoulder hard.
As a result, he found that Tang Jiumin was a little unsteady on his feet.
oh?
The werewolf couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said jokingly: "Looking at you, this is probably your first time seeing a werewolf. The one on the ground is not a fully transformed werewolf, it can only be regarded as a werewolf that has just begun to transform."
"Looking at you like this, I know you are a half-hearted person. You said you were a brave gunman in the tavern and shot at the robbers. I think you may have fired the wrong gun and misfired!"
"You can tell at a glance that you haven't fired a few shots at all. You just put your hand in and fired two shots randomly. You can't figure it out."
After hearing this, Tang Jiumin was not embarrassed at all. He shrugged and replied, "You are right. I have only touched the gun for a short time."
"But I am indeed a brave gunner. Otherwise, how could I dare to stalk a werewolf alone when I have just touched a gun?"
"If I didn't lead the way, could you find this werewolf and kill him more easily?"
Tang Jiumin looked at the corpse on the ground and felt pity in his heart.
Originally, he brought the werewolf here with him, thinking that there would definitely be a fierce battle between the werewolf and the werewolf. He could wait for the opportunity and deliver the final blow to the werewolf.
The wolf hunter is for money and he is for the mission, killing two birds with one stone.
However, he did not expect that when he faced the werewolf, his fear affected his actions. At the same time, the werewolf was much stronger than he imagined. After the other party rushed into the room, he killed the werewolf with a few shots.
Although it was a pity, even if it happened all over again, Tang Jiumin would still bring the werewolf over.
experience.
He needs the experience of fighting against werewolves. Seeing is worse than hearing, and doing is worse than seeing.
"you are right!"
The werewolf catcher laughed happily when he heard Tang Jiumin's almost self-praising words. He pointed at the werewolf's body and said:
"This is a piece of gold. When I sell it to a merchant and get the money, I will share half of it with you. Not only that, I have to treat you to a few drinks. After all, in addition to owing you a glass of wine before, I also owe you a precious stone. Werewolf head.”
"If you hadn't told me the location of the werewolf, I might have had to wait for the werewolf to appear before I could lock the target. By then, it wouldn't be something that could be done with a few ordinary bullets. At least one special silver bullet would have to be used."
"Tang, you don't know that in Moon Howling Town, you have to kill a werewolf with normal ammunition? If you don't have dozens of rounds, don't even think about it."
Both of them laughed, but Tang Jiumin took this opportunity to wave his hand.
"The harvest is good, but this is not gold. I can say that I killed this werewolf. That will be the mayor's bounty. I can give you all the bounty."
"But, I need you to do me a favor."
When the wolf catcher heard what Tang Jiumin said, he was happy at first, but then felt a little strange.
"You don't want money? What do you want?"
Tang Jiumin pointed at the werewolf hunter's revolver and said, "Let me guess, you have maintained your gun so well. This must be a very important weapon for you, a weapon that has been with you for a long time."
"Then, you must also have the silver bullets for this gun, right? I will use the bounty to exchange for all the silver bullets for your pistols."
"how?"
