The next moment, the guest with an abnormally deformed face was dragged by Ajax with all his strength, screaming and smoking, and fell onto a small table with a candlestick; he was immediately on fire. He touched the clothing with whale oil and balm; his upper body suddenly burned into a ball of fire.
Then Ajax suddenly passed by with the knife in his hand, and a head that no longer looked like a human was sprayed with blood and rolled to the ground; only then did the female guests present appear. , suddenly there was a series of screams like waking up from a dream, which also woke up the remaining people.
In an instant, among the frightened banquet guests, several figures suddenly appeared. However, they pushed the crowd and tables and chairs into pieces, and fled towards the ceiling, doors and windows. However, they were hit head-on by at least several fire guns and powerful crossbows.
In the fierce sound of sparks flying, these figures trying to escape almost burst out, dragging fountains of blood, and fell back again, knocking down the exquisite tables and chairs and overturning them all over the floor. . Only one person escaped the attack by luck by jumping onto the decorative grate on the ceiling.
However, the next moment, the smell of burning and green smoke came from his dangling calf; but the old hunter Ajax had already wrapped him around his hanging calf with a ball-headed silver chain and dragged him down violently; only a shrill sound was heard. He screamed, and along with a torn calf, bits of blood scattered in the air.
However, the guest who had lost his calf did not hesitate to smash a decorative stained glass window on the ceiling; he managed to escape while being covered in blood from the broken edges. However, only a few screams were heard again, and a body fell in again.
But the head and shoulders had been flattened and smashed, and turned into a tattered corpse; and at the smashed ceiling window, Porthos' bright forehead also flashed. Found; obviously there had been an ambush. Following what happened in the flash of lightning, Jiang Tian gave another order: "Go forward and inspect the scene to find the owner of this house, Sir Loslin, the municipal construction officer."
As he finished speaking, some of the remaining guests who were frightened, pushed down or slumped to the ground could not help but look inside; one was wearing a Siris-style embroidered shirt and a silver pearl bow tie. , a middle-aged handsome man with slender and curly beard.
He suddenly pushed away the female companion who was clinging to him, turned around and grabbed the old man in black clothes with white rims by the neck, and said in a sharp hiss: "Senior Judge of the Circuit Court of the Southern Region of the Kingdom, Redo Lord La is in my hands, you all must give in to me..."
The next moment, there was only a bright sword light in his eyes. Then it turned into an instant sharp pain that penetrated the skull and severed the marrow trunk, and a strange sense of relief when he lost all consciousness. With the blood splashing on his face in his last consciousness, he suddenly realized that he had been pierced together. !
The last thing he heard in the darkness was Jiang Fu's belated sigh: "Damn alien, he resisted the capture of the kingdom's soldiers and murdered the respected circuit judge! Come on, capture him for me. The accomplices and internal agents must be strictly interrogated and no one should be left out.”
Although the master here died together with the judge in black and white collar; but as the slaves and housekeepers who were controlled at the scene, there are still some people who know a little bit about the strange things their master does in daily life, and have done some things on his behalf. Cleaning up and dealing with the aftermath,
Therefore, in the gardener's shed deep in the courtyard behind the mansion, a cover was found under the old animal skin carpet that led downwards; however, after lifting the cover, a thick layer of blood and putrid odor hit the face. The smell of dirt nearly suffocated the soldier responsible for opening it.
Then, the old hunter Ajax suddenly jumped down without raising his body, and then with several rapid calls and the sound of metal slashing, he took out a mutilated human body covered in blood. The limbs, shoulders, and buttocks of this human body were rotten and blackened with maggots.
It was as if parts of the body were being cut off one after another while still alive; there were also many marks on the chest that had been cut open and then sewn back together in a hurry. What was unexpected was that this man was still tenaciously alive. Open your swollen eyelids at Ajax's call.
But with his severely damaged vocal cords, he hissed out a few words that sounded like Mohu. The livid old hunter Ajax put him down temporarily without hesitation and strode to the kitchen attached to the main house. Then, he punched a smoky wall hard.
Hearing his full blow filled with rage, the wall of the large kitchen suddenly cracked with cobwebs, and a large section collapsed; immediately revealing the special space inside. There were old blood-stained iron hooks and chains, wide eucalyptus boards and relatively neat knives of various colors.
Then, Ajax, who suddenly calmed down his anger, dug out a broken basket in the corner and found a pair of bloody leather sheaths that had been torn into pieces, as well as several fragments of knives, daggers, and arrow clusters. , embedded on it; the last hanging chain and the octagonal gryphon-patterned iron seal.
Apparently, this was what was owned by the victim who was hidden under the gardener's shed, and also by his fellow hunter who had a very close relationship with him. Then, behind a blackened curtain, Ajax found more relics of the suspected victims, including clothes and accessories.
But the latest bloodstain among them was half a torn skirt with dark flowers stuck to it. When Ajax brought this thing in front of the dying companion, the other party who had never cried out in pain actually squeezed from the corner of his eyes. She shed a drop of turbid tears and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Lola..."
This is just the most common female name in the market. It is common among village girls, peasant women, and even among those nightingales who come out to ask for work. If you call it out, two or three out of ten will respond. But it seems to have a very special meaning for this fellow hunter.
Next, there is the question of how to deal with the aftermath of this extraneous raid. In fact, the area around this house was so deserted and deserted that even though they fired arrows and shotguns and yelled and killed for quite a while, no one came to find out what was going on.
This is also the environment and convenient conditions needed by this municipal construction officer, Sir Roslin of Cherno, who has turned into a stranger and secretly carried out Dr. Hannibal's actions. Therefore, clean bones were found under several trees in the courtyard; the bone shapes seemed to be those of men, women, and children.
Even judging from the degree of tooth wear, there are some who are obviously victims of relatively privileged life; judging from the tooth inlays, it is likely that they also participated in the family's reception banquet, but disappeared soon after. Many middle- and upper-class women in the city.
Therefore, under the stimulation of this discovery, the remaining guests who were still in shock, after being screened and identified by blood tests on silverware, and in the face of extreme fear and force, temporarily became a united camp with the same hatred and hatred. The reason is also very simple.
Because when most people think about the fact that they are invited, they may disappear quietly without the knowledge of their family members, and then become a delicacy on the table for the family like cooking pigs and sheep; then think about the fact that there are people around them. Hidden, such a terrifying alien...
According to the confessions of surviving accomplices and lackeys. At least a few years ago, they were normal people, but when a big shot from the capital passed by and received warm hospitality, he also generously granted these local nobles and officials the right to enjoy a feast of flesh and blood in the dark.
Subsequently, these aliens were beheaded on the spot, and their fangs were dug out as souvenirs; then the remaining parts were transported to the square in the city on a cart, just waiting for the sun to come out to pour oil and light the fire in public once and for all. In this way, it is impossible for these monsters to survive from the ashes!
However, an accident happened the next day. Although the corpses began to fester under the sun's rays, the speed was very slow. After waiting for a full hour, Jiang Tian, who was impatient, threw the torch up and burned it completely. . And one of the corpses actually struggled.
Then he was chopped into pieces by the soldiers waiting around him with swords and axes in fear. As for the remaining fangs, Jiang Tian passed live animal tests and found that they were toxic enough to cause paralysis for a certain number of times. This was a good thing, and he quickly secretly collected it.
According to the frankness of the old hunter Ajax, these humanoid aliens are more like some kind of disease originating from the ancient bloodline. So things like silverware and sunlight can hurt them, but they won't kill them immediately unless they are tied up and left in the sun for a whole day.
But they are only slightly stronger than normal people, their bodies are softer and easier to deform, and they are less likely to hurt vital parts. But it is not so powerful that it cannot be defeated or killed by human weapons. It can be resurrected in situ if cut into pieces. It can be resurrected with blood after being buried alive for hundreds of years and turned into a mummy.

Although there are special means to stimulate it and create the corresponding kind with a certain probability, it is also not without cost. Otherwise, the world would have been in chaos long ago; instead of hiding underground and secretly eating blood, they would have to use murderous eucalyptus as a cover.
Furthermore, the ugly aliens are only the most elementary ones. Once they are lucky enough to survive the initial hunt and devour more humans, they will naturally become more like normal people in appearance. He no longer even uses his natural minions, but becomes more adept at using various weapons and tools flexibly.
In addition, before death, this kind of thing will emit a smell that is difficult for ordinary people to detect. Marking the corresponding killers for similar species can provide guidance whether for avoidance or revenge; therefore, hunters also need special herbal formulas to remove this scent mark.
However, because there are fewer and fewer hunters active in the world, the sources of corresponding formula materials are also drying up. Therefore, they, new and old hunters, had no choice but to start taking on some investigative tasks, and even kill some wild beasts in order to make money.
However, when Jiang Tian led people in the rich area in the north of the city, they continued to toss for almost a whole day, pulling out almost everyone who could breathe to bask in the sun and have their silverware tested for blood; they also sent people to deliver letters twice. General Caron's temporary headquarters in the city hall showed no response.
