Chapter 122: Dark Tide
This may be the first time in human history that the witch and the witch sat peacefully on the same bench, while a husky three-headed dog squatted in the open space next to the bench, even trying to pretend that he was a vegetarian.
And it was Gu Yun who led to this feat.
The sky outside the window turned white, and several people sent Lao Xu back to the hospital in the city overnight. The two ladies were overly frightened and went home first. Except for the three of them, there was only Lu Renjie who had fallen asleep a few minutes ago.
"So, Marian Sercia was really knocked back by you?"
Sperot thoughtfully and couldn't help but glance at the well-behaved and upright three-headed dog when he spoke. It is certain that this three-headed dog will never be afraid of itself anymore, and it shouldn't be afraid of its owner.
Then only Gu Yun is left.
"I've said it six times, do you have a bad memory?"
Gu Yun was a little impatient. He said it six times along the way today. If he had an encounter with the foundation branch, it would have been more than six times.
"It's not that I have a bad memory, but it's just that I'm a little unacceptable at once."
To be honest, when he was in the foundation branch, Sperot did not believe the one-sided words of Shen Yue and Gu Yun. As a descendant of the witch who had fought against the witch for centuries, he knew very well that the power of the Twilight Witch was. In order to kill Marian Sercia, he traveled thousands of miles to pursue the whereabouts of the Holy Spear Barrow.
But now he believed it a little. Not only the three-headed dog's attitude towards Gu Yun, but also because Gu Yun obviously got a holy gun just now, but the cooling of the spell had not yet been completed, the wound on the latter's hand had automatically healed.
"In other words, after this little witch was captured by you, she planned to change her mind and turn her back to justice?"
"What does it mean to turn from evil to justice? I have never done anything bad, at least I was caught before I could do something bad." Avril said with confidence. The apprentice's life was spent in fulfilling study. Before she became a formal witch, she suddenly realized and decided to hang out with her current boss. "Where did you get so many problems? Don't think that you can compete with the mistress if you get the holy gun. You can't even beat the three-headed dog and want to see the mistress?"
"No matter how powerful she is, she is still a human being. As long as the bullet from the holy gun is penetrated through the heart, she will die."
It’s a pity that the Holy Spear - Barrow was created after a hundred years of joint efforts to fight against the Twilight Witch, otherwise his ancestors would have completely ended the legend of Marianne at that time.
"Who, he can actually make the cold gun fresh and unrealistic. He is truly a witch hunter."
Avril did not let go of any act of damaging Sperot. It was the instinct of all supernatural creatures to attack the witch hunter, even the elementary apprentice was no exception.
"You will never understand that bowing to evil and desire."
Sperot's eyebrows were cold.
Although they were named the witch hunter, they were actually just a group of ordinary people who had special knowledge. The reason for the birth of the witch hunter profession was to give ordinary people the power to fight against evil creatures.
Through the accumulation and research over thousands of years, they have summarized the weaknesses of various supernatural creatures. Some philosophers cracked the essence of spells and used them to hunt down evil creatures. This is why they become stronger and stronger, because every witch hunter stands on the shoulders of giants, and the predecessors use the knowledge they created to fight with them forever.
"And, there are no invincible creatures in this world, and it's just that I haven't found a way to kill them yet."
"It sounds nice, you haven't answered why you came here yet!"
"Because that abandoned building is one of the most powerful places in the city's supernatural powers, and I came to track down a witch."
"Another witch?" Gu Yun couldn't help but speak, "Aren't they evacuated?"
Whether it is Marian's own statement or the tips obtained by the Foundation Branch, it confirms that the witch who invaded City X has retreated in large numbers.
"Her identity is a bit special, she seems to be a local."
Sperot couldn't help but recall the girl he met at the airport the day he lost his luggage. It was the first Eastern witch he had ever met since he was born. There were no similar records in the family's classics and trade union intelligence.
Marian Sercia has never expanded into the "overseas market" before.
"I know her."
Mr. Luo’s daughter, Gu Yun, did not persuade him at that time, because before he arrived, Luo Xin had already made up her mind, "She is not a dangerous person."
"Yes, after coming to this city, my worldview was greatly impacted."
Sperot sighed.
He went through a lot of hardships to get the holy gun - Barrow. He wanted to end the witch's history here, but the witch himself did not meet at dusk. The only two witches he met started to hunt witches instead.
Avril can also explain that he is timid and has to bow his head to Gu Yun, but the oriental girl he met before is really hard to explain.
Nowadays, the economic environment is too poor. Even a witch comes to compete with the witch hunter for business if he doesn't pay attention.
"The witch I mentioned seems to be investigating the legend here, to be honest, what's going on in your city?"
Sperot traveled around the European continent to solve various supernatural events all year round, and he had never seen a place like the city of x. He had read the information provided to him by the branch. In this month alone, at least five confirmed supernatural events occurred, and more than a dozen suspected and undeterminable ones were listed.
This frequency is almost becoming a part of people's daily life.
“We are investigating, too.”
Gu Yun said.
"We" refers to Wang Lu and him. Since the ghoul incident, the former has been investigating the matter day and night, and he only needs to play the role of a thug in this team.
"Don't you even know?"
Sperot's expression was a little solemn. To the worst, perhaps the city was hiding a darker side that was more terrifying than Marian Sercia.
He originally planned to confirm that the witch retreated and left.
"It seems that it will take longer to stay."
The original intention of the profession of the witch hunter was to save people. Regardless of the country or belief, this is the creed of the Winchester family and the creed of every witch hunter.
"Don't, you'd better go back quickly. You're too weak and you can't help anyway."
"Dong--!"
Before he finished speaking, Avril was hit hard by Gu Yun on the back of his head, "Strength and weakness are issues of ability, and whether to do it is a problem of character. Ability is easy to improve, but character is difficult to change."
"Woo, I know I'm wrong."
Avril, who had just been very arrogant, covered his head and begged for mercy.
