"Sir, the identity of this red-haired savage has been found out. He is indeed the hunter Daniel who disappeared before. Several hunters recognize him."
"So, the rumors are confirmed that unintentional people who are attacked by savages will turn into the same monsters?"
"Yes, we just cut open his chest and found that there is no heart at all. Instead, there is this kind of thing..."
Soon after, in the big tent, everyone from the Demon Suppression Division who had dealt with the previous savages gathered together to discuss. Yuan Bin, who was accompanying hundreds of households, showed Li Chuan a strange object the size of a fist and slightly yellow in body.
This thing, under Li Fan's discerning eyes, showed the light of a strange and strange treasure, and showed a faint pale firelight.
The stray light distorts and forms disturbing strokes.
But unfortunately, it did not condense into real handwriting. It was obviously not powerful or pure enough to become a rare treasure in the true sense.
This is probably also the reason why the savages we encountered before had limited strength and were finally captured by everyone.
However, according to Fuqi Shenbi, this may be the so-called "heart stone"!
Or maybe, it’s the heart stone that hasn’t yet been formed!
"Continue to interrogate the big man's background and experience. Sometimes, the strange outbreak is not limited to the time, it may also be the accumulation of past experiences."
Li Fan ordered.
Everyone in the Demon Suppressing Department nodded.
Sometimes this is indeed the case.
So it may also be helpful to ask about the experience from a few months ago, or even further back.
The next day, everyone continued to march deeper into the mountains and forests.
Although yesterday's encounter made the night watchmen highly vigilant all night, it also confirmed that this direction should be correct.
So we continued inside.
As for the hunter who was attacked, he was tied to a stretcher and someone was specially sent to carry it.
According to rumors, targets attacked by savages will wake up a day later, still alive even without a heart.
Then gradually went crazy.
This phenomenon similar to corpse transformation will cause it to gradually grow red hair and become a new savage.
Li Fan wanted to see what kind of transformation he could do.
If we can use the true-seeing eyes to see more information during this process, it will be equivalent to directly seeing through the weaknesses of the savages and being able to deal with them.
That night, everyone set up camp early as usual and took a short rest.
The roads in the mountains and forests are very difficult to walk. Even if there are many experienced hunters leading the way and marching through as many passable places as possible, the large army still has to be restrained by the slowest people and moves at a turtle's pace.
But at this time, the strange power once again showed its effect.
Even the Demon Suppressor, who was not familiar with the forest, still showed some extraordinary qualities.
After marching all day, it was the hunters who were holding us back.
They were deeply amazed at the physical strength and mobility of these officials, and they couldn't help but feel a little more curious.
"Master, are you the strangers in the legend?"
When resting in the evening, an Orion named Huang Dahu couldn't help but ask quietly.
This Huang Dahu was the first hunter who took the initiative to take over the recruitment. The person he was questioning was Xiaoqi Liu Changxi, the demon-suppressing envoy who kindly reminded him. Hearing this, he couldn't help but feel a little headache.
"Don't inquire about court matters."
He felt that he was a little too approachable, causing these people from the mountains to push their limits.
However, the relationship between people is often so strange.
Regardless of class status, identity and strength, after getting along for a long time, we are more or less familiar.
It's really just a bit of an extravagance.
Huang Dahu smiled innocently, but his eyes flashed with a strange color.
But before he could sort out some of the thoughts in his mind, Xiaoqi Liu Changxi suddenly asked again: "How do you know about the stranger?"
Huang Dahu said casually: "Doctor Ling from Paoshan Village talked about it before."
Liu Changxi's heart felt cold. The bonfire at night shone on his face, and the flickering light of the fire swayed, causing the shadows to squirm.
Those demon cultists...
You actually told the villagers this!
"What do you know?"
Liu Changxi asked.
"Doctor Ling said that strange people are extraordinary people who are blessed by nature. Once they have the opportunity to become a strange person, they will be as light as a swallow, have infinite strength, swallow water and fire, fly into the sky and escape from the earth...
To be honest, I don’t believe it, but strange things have happened one after another in the village recently, and even a red-haired savage appeared..."
Liu Changxi couldn't help but think deeply after hearing this.
Strange things happened one after another in the village, and they had actually heard about it.
But most of them were small things like some chickens and ducks growing three legs and black water coming out of the vegetable patch.
People from the local Yuezhou Hundred Household Office also came to investigate and confirmed that it was the remnants of a slightly strange atmosphere.
Creatures such as chickens and ducks will also be contaminated by the strange source of matter, but they have no intelligence, are difficult to transform evil spirits (in rare cases, they will still appear in the strange realm), and the upper limit of the power they can withstand is also smaller.
Therefore, even some essences that can only make people sick may cause physical deformities or mental insanity.
Liu Changxi felt a little uneasy and hurriedly reported the matter to his superiors.
The boss reported it to the superior again, and soon, Li Chuan also knew about it.
"There were already clues as early as half a year ago?"
"Master Li, the origins of strange events are often very far-reaching. They have already appeared half a year ago. This is not surprising, but I do care about what the people of the Demon Cult have done in this. Are they all a group of lunatics? Searching around and activating spooky events?”
According to the general information from all parties, a group of strangers had visited this place before.
They are either wandering monks or village doctors, and they say strange words to the common people.
"Move, move, he moved!"
At this moment, Li Fan and Yuan Bin, who were talking, heard an exclamation from outside.
"Is it the hunter who was killed?"
Li Fan pondered for a moment and then ordered: "Carry me out."
Soon, he came outside and saw that a group of people had surrounded the big tree where the body of the slain hunter was tied up. A big man with red eyes and a look like a madman was roaring in a low voice. He looked extremely ferocious.
"That's it...that's it...he turned into a monster!"
Several of the villagers who led the way looked frightened, especially the fellow villagers who knew the man, who had extremely complicated emotions.
"Put me down!"
"let me go!"
The other party let out a human-like roar.
"Ah, he's still alive?"
The fellow villagers who knew each other were shocked and said in surprise.
But other guides who had seen this kind of resurrection from the dead were shocked and said: "Don't believe him, this man has become a demon. He will kill people when he meets them!"
"He is already dead and cannot be saved!"
"Don't get too close, or you'll get bitten by him!"
"..."
Everyone who has dealt with strange incidents is not surprised by this degree of abnormality, but they are silently thinking in their hearts, if he turns into a red-haired savage-like monster next, will he be able to prove this kind of thing? Horribly contagious?
But according to the previously discovered rules, it seems that not every such victim can successfully transform into a corpse.
Just like those who were captured before have died again.
"Watch him carefully along the way. If he dies suddenly after a few days, cut his chest open and take out his heart for examination."
Li Ao pondered silently and suddenly gave an order.
In the next few days, everyone continued to go deep into the mountain forest, and the deceased who was captured also experienced the crazy screaming, crying and begging for mercy at the beginning, as if his mind became clearer and clearer, and he returned to During his lifetime.
Several times, people in the same village couldn't help but beg and beg the officials to let him go.
But the people from the Demon Suppression Division, who had received the order in advance, of course refused to give in and insisted on keeping it locked up.
This situation lasted for a total of seven days. Just when everyone was about to find the destination of their trip, someone reported to Li Ao: "Master Li, he has no life left and has not turned into a savage."
"Is there a heart inside the chest?"
"No, there's just a pool of blood inside."
Li Fan's eyes were very different, and he gave an order that he had been preparing for several days: "Try to install that great man's heart-substitute stone on him!"
This order was quickly carried out.
The moment the strange crystal was placed into the opponent's chest, something shocking happened.
The opponent's flesh and blood coagulated, the wounds healed, and the heart was wrapped up.
Immediately after, red hair grew wildly all over the body, and the rough and wild hair wrapped it into a savage.
Then he opened his eyes and growled lowly.
"Ah, this!"
"Is this really coming to life?"
"Is this how the savages came?"
Everyone was in an uproar.
