Passing through layers of dazzling light curtains, after a brief dizziness, Wu Ming led Siegfried and the Crimson Queen out of the teleportation light curtain and arrived at a forest with lush vegetation.
Because this destination is a small town that is not marked on the map. Although it is not as closed as the mountain village in the ravine, due to the relatively backward infrastructure, the town’s connection with the outside world is only by driving. Being able to wait for the once-a-week shuttle bus at the town station, this time the situation was relatively urgent, so it was obviously not possible for people to wait slowly for the shuttle bus, so Wu Ming directly teleported there according to the coordinates given by the office.
Siegfried wore a mask with a very mechanical feel, and slowly pulled out the black iron sword on his back. Then he leaned down to gather strength, and swept the sword with great force and heavy force, followed by a sharp whistle in the air. He cut off the surrounding weeds and small trees with a sound, and cleared a fan-shaped area around him that was convenient for standing. At the same time, he looked at Wu Ming with some doubts in his voice: This is not a small town. Are the teleportation coordinates given by the office wrong?
No, there is nothing wrong with the coordinates given by the office. This is our destination. Wu Ming held the Crimson Queen who had followed him in his arms. The latter was curiously observing the surroundings through the camera. Seeing the dragon girl's increasingly confused eyes, Wu Ming explained unhurriedly, "Teleport directly." There is too much noise in the town. You also know that magical things like teleportation modules will definitely scare the townspeople in the town and easily cause unnecessary trouble to us, so we set the teleportation point here. Next We pretended to be travelers and entered the village.
The agency thoughtfully set the landing coordinates in the forest near the town, just to prevent them from parachuting into the center of the town and directly scaring the xenophobic townspeople in the town.
After hearing Wu Ming's explanation, Siege Fei nodded silently, indicating that he understood his decision: Which way should we go now?
Where we are now, Wu Ming opened the containment space and released a few stealth probes. After they rose to high altitude, he connected the stealth probes and observed them from a bird's eye view. Then he pointed in a direction and said, "Continue to move east from our current location." , it should be enough to walk a few kilometers, it’s quite close, we’ll be there soon.
Walking several kilometers in a mountainous forest with dense vegetation may be a big challenge for ordinary people. It may take them a long time to complete the walk, but for Wu Ming and others whose physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, it is a real challenge. It's nothing, after all
Then I'll clear the way. Siegfried held up the mechanical mask on his face, and then swung the heavy black iron sword in the direction pointed by Wu Ming. The sword swung with great force ravaged and compressed the air, forming a sharp streak. The wind blade flew more than ten meters away and silently cut off the swept plants. The strong wind that followed bent and blew down the remaining plants one after another, creating a path in this dense green ocean. Easy walking access.
After all, there is a human bulldozer known as the dragon girl.
Alex Otto dragged his tired body along the bumpy country path. He stretched out his voice feebly and expressed his dissatisfaction to the old hunter walking in front. I can't walk anymore. I really can't. I can't walk anymore!
Alex, who was tall, burly, and as strong as a bear, stopped. He was still wearing the shirt, vest and long windbreaker. After hearing Otto's call, he slowly turned around. The sunglasses reflected the sunlight, making his scarred face look even more sinister: Otto, although most of the psyker's abilities are in fantasy, he cannot relax in physical training. It seems that you must have been lazy during physical training, otherwise your physical strength should be enough for us to reach the town.
Under extreme exhaustion, Otto no longer cared about his image. He was so tired that he sat down on the ground, but he kept mumbling: Your training list is simply murder! I am asked to run 12 kilometers with weights in one hour, and I have to do 300 squats, 300 push-ups, 300 sit-ups and all kinds of physical training that can exhaust people to death. Please move. Is your brain good? As a normal person, I have physical fitness. If I don’t slack off, whether I can survive after completing the training is a question. Is it possible for me to follow you around to solve extraordinary events?
Alex was a little confused by the other party's endless complaints. He frowned and seemed to realize his mistake.
Just when Otto thought he was really reflecting on himself for what he had done, the old hunter raised his head, with some confusion and confusion on his face and said slowly: But, this is basic training. When I was a hunter, When the Killing Group compiled training materials for new hunters, they used this basic training plan, which was very low-intensity.
Yandu is foul-mouthed! Otto was so angry that he cursed, saying that it was impossible for ordinary people to complete the training of freaks like you with their physical fitness! I have a foul mouth even in Yan, and I have a foul mouth in Yan!
Alex, who was being wildly insulted, was not angry, but as Otto became more and more angry, and when all kinds of obscene words came out, he frowned slightly and reminded Otto: , pay attention to the quality of your words and deeds, and don't use bad words.
There was no threat in his tone, and there was no look of anger on his face. There was only a friendly and kind reminder. But for some reason, Otto, who was a little carried away, was so scared that he covered his mouth like a chicken. , the continuous foul language also stopped abruptly.
Although after getting along for a period of time, Otto has understood the old hunter's personality and knows that he is not a person who likes to use violence to solve problems, let alone beat others because of such insults, but to be honest, maybe the other person is a person. After hundreds of battles, the old hunter has killed countless extraordinary creatures. Years of killing and fighting have naturally developed a very intimidating temperament. Otto saw the old hunter's face with a scar entwining it. When you have a ferocious face, you will always feel scared mentally.
Fortunately, this was not the first time that Otto was taught a lesson by the old hunter. After the two of them rested in silence for a while, he adjusted his mentality and told the other party that he would pay attention to his quality, and then changed the topic to another direction: Alex Chris, how long until we get there?
Walking along this road, at the current speed, you can reach the town where the traces of the witch were found in less than a quarter of an hour. Otto, the danger level of this operation is different from the past, so you must be careful and cautious after entering the town. Don't act rashly, let alone run around casually.
The second half of Alex's words was very solemn. Although the old hunter was not very good at joking, the feeling he showed at this moment was uncontrollable. This made Otto curiously ask: Are you making a fuss about the witch? Could it be that dangerous? Besides, is this matter worthy of your attention? When Yandu received the news, you even abandoned your job of garrisoning the city and insisted on taking me all the way to this remote and remote place.
Witch, Alex recited Otto's question with emotion, as if his memory box had been opened by the other party's curious question. Memories that had been suppressed in his heart came to his mind, and his expression looked more grim than usual. On a low note, witches are a miserable group just like you psykers. The only difference is that witches are an extraordinary profession that should never have been born in this world.
Is there a more miserable profession than being a psyker? Otto seemed a bit disapproving, so why were they all miserable? Does changing jobs come with gender-changing special effects, or is it like the rest of us who can only live for a few decades and die young?
Alex shook his head: None. On the contrary, if there are no accidents, the life span of witches is often very long.
So what misery can they have? Otto rolled his eyes and asked, "I feel so grateful now that I can die. Who knows how many times my soul can burn. In the end, will I die from overuse of my abilities, or will I be directly hacked to death by your hunters?"
The old hunter looked at Otto who was disapproving. He knew that the latter did not mean any harm by saying this. He was just expressing his feelings about the general situation of the group of psykers. The souls of psykers age and burn much faster than ordinary people. In order to To survive, many psykers can only choose to consume other souls to replenish their consumption. Under the conflict between the memories, personalities and emotions of different individuals, their personality emotions are often very easy to go to extremes. In addition, their ability to overwrite reality with Kryptonian life is too dangerous, so every psyker who is discovered They will be closely monitored by the hunting group, and will be executed immediately if there is any loss of control.
Alex is not only Otto's guardian, but also assumes the responsibility of executing him when he loses control.
Walking with Otto on the country path, the old hunter was silent for a while, then he sighed and patiently explained to the latter: The witch is indeed
They can live for a long time, but their long life is bound to be accompanied by uninterrupted misfortunes and tragic experiences. Some people lose their loved ones when they are young, some people lose the love of their lives, and some people seek for the things they seek so hard. No, some people will become physically disabled because of this
Although they can draw nutrients from these misfortunes and pains, making themselves stronger and capable of doing more incredible things, this will lead to greater misfortune, and this tragic cycle will Throughout their lives, it was as if fate did not want to see them get even a little ordinary happiness. Even if they had happiness that made them forget their pain for a short time, it would only pave the way for a more miserable future. And this cycle cannot be freed from the pain until the moment they die.
Alex recalled those past memories that were a long time ago for him, squinting his eyes with a bit of emotion and sigh: Perhaps for those who become witches, death is already the easiest ending.
If that's the case, wouldn't it be better if they didn't become witches? Otto interjected with some confusion, as long as you don't use this power, it won't be that big of a deal.
It's not that easy. As the old hunter shook his head and walked and talked, he could already see the towering bell tower at the end of the path, as well as the entrance to the town not far away. The witch's inheritance is a bit special compared to the inheritance of other extraordinary professions, and is different from many extraordinary professions. , the promotion and transformation methods of extraordinary creatures are different, it is more like the curse or plague of vampires biting humans and turning them into blood slaves. Of course, there are indeed people who are witches but have never used the power of witches, but even this is of no avail. Becoming The witch itself is a curse. As long as you unfortunately become a witch, you will never be able to get rid of this unfortunate and miserable life.
Otto couldn't help but fell silent after listening to Alex's words. According to the old hunter's words, witches are indeed a miserable group, but this does not explain why Alex is so interested in witches. He just wanted to ask When he was wondering about the reason, a voice came over that made him angry.
Yo! Isn’t this Otu and the old hunter?
