Chapter 25 The Midnight Ripper
The hound tightly held the dagger in his hand, carefully looked over, then his face changed, and he quickly retracted his head.

"Damn, what did I see? Then, isn't that the Singer of Doom?" The hound's heart was beating hard at this moment, and fear filled his heart.

He has not only heard of the horror legend of bloody doom, but has also seen it with his own eyes. He knew a strong man who was fearless. More than a year ago, because of his disdain and arrogance, he desecrated the list of bloody doom. That night, he was torn apart by the Doom Singer and devoured all his flesh and blood. The hound will never forget that scene in his life.

Therefore, he has a clear memory of the appearance of the Doom Singer and can distinguish him at a glance.

"That kid does have two brushes and can even control evil spirits. But if the singer of doom finds him, the evil spirits will be useless. He will definitely die."

In other words, the hound is also a villain. He has killed people and committed crimes are commonplace. Ordinary people dare not provoke him, but compared with the singer of doom, he is a bit childish.

The Hound regretted it.

He regretted pursuing him, he should have escaped and stayed away from the shallow water port.

"What extraordinary potion? Damn it, compared to life, it's nothing. Yes, I still have a chance. I can run now." Hound, a professional criminal, was scared. He slowly backed away, but at this time , his nose twitched.

"From just now, I smelled a smell of blood. I didn't pay much attention to it before, but now, the smell of blood is stronger." The hound's sense of smell is far superior to that of ordinary people, so he can also keenly sense smells that others cannot smell. .

He walked slowly in the direction from which the smell of blood came, and around the corner, he saw a figure squatting on the ground in the depths of the alley ahead, tearing something apart.

The Hound frowned. He was also a professional criminal, so he could tell at a glance that there was a person lying on the ground in front of the man. To be precise, it was a dead body.

It happened that at this time, the clouds covering the moon dispersed, and the moonlight shone down, allowing him to see clearly.

The dead body was that of a woman, her blond hair was stained with blood at the moment, her eyes were wide open and her mouth was open, her eyes were stained with tears, her face was filled with fear, and she died tragically.Her stomach was cut open, and a man wearing a black dress, a top hat, and a sack-like thing covering his face was holding a sharp knife and cutting the internal organs in the belly of the female corpse.

This scene is very bloody.

"Midnight Ripper?" The hound's scalp was numb with fright. He felt that he was "lucky". During this night, he not only saw the legendary singer of doom again, but also ran into the murderer of Midnight Ripper. scene.

There is simply no way to improve this luck.

You must know that in the circle of criminals and villains, the Midnight Ripper who commits crimes in several surrounding towns is undoubtedly the "best" among them.

It is the top of the criminal pyramid.

At least, he has committed crimes for several years without being caught by the Sheriff of the Sword of Justice. This alone is his ability.

There are even rumors that this midnight ripper is a "superhuman" with extremely powerful abilities.

The hound's ability is the sense of smell, not fighting. At this moment, he directly bumped into the legendary 'Midnight Ripper'. It would be a lie to say that there is no panic. Now the hound regrets it to the extreme. If he was not greedy for profit, he should have left after he escaped. No matter what, it's okay.

Now I just hope the Midnight Ripper doesn't find me.

As soon as I thought of this, the Midnight Ripper in the alley opposite raised his head. His face was covered with a sack, and he only had two holes cut out for his eyes, so his look definitely looked 'professional'. Instead of being a murderer, Hound looks like an amateur.

The hound wanted to say something now, but when he looked at Midnight Ripper's cold eyes, he was too frightened to say anything.

Both are murderers, and the hound knows that the other party has murderous intentions.

Just think about it, how could this legendary murderer, who has been committing crimes but has never been caught, let go of himself, a witness who broke into the scene of his murder?
"Brother, listen to my explanation." The hound stammered and choked out such a sentence.

But the Midnight Ripper responded by standing up and rushing towards him.

The hound also had a dagger in his hand, but he didn't even have the courage to fight against him. He was so scared that he almost peed his pants now. In terms of momentum, the two murderers were not at the same level.

"run!"

The hound only had this thought in his mind now, and the next moment, he turned around and ran away.

Of course, he didn't dare to call for help. If the night watchman who attracted the sword of justice, the situation would not be much better. The best outcome for him would be to be caught in prison again. This time, he might never be able to get out.

……

Tang An felt that his previous inferences were all wrong.

After explaining for a long time, the doom singer was still singing in a low voice, but Tang An could hear that the other party's mood was a little anxious.

Even, anger.

Tang An didn't understand why the other party was anxious or upset?
Could it be that his explanation was not thorough enough?Not sincere enough?
At this moment, footsteps sounded, and the hound next to him ran over with a look of fear on his face.If this hunting dog is also a chicken thief, he knows that if he runs to other places, he will never escape the pursuit of the Midnight Ripper. They are all focused on killing them, and his only way to survive is Tang An's side.

The hound discovered that Tang An was still alive, which made the hound realize that there must be something special about him.

Tang An naturally recognized the hound, but the other party ran over with a wicked heart, and this guy even came back with his helper.

Shameless.

The weirdly fast Midnight Ripper at the back was obviously mistaken by Tang An for the Hound's helper. At this time, the Midnight Ripper also saw the situation here.

In his eyes, the hunting dog is just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Even Tang An, he just regards it as a piece of prey that can be opened at will, not worth mentioning.

Only seeing the Singer of Doom, Midnight Ripper was slightly startled, and immediately stopped and stopped there.

Obviously, the Midnight Ripper can feel the terror of the Doom Singer, and similarly, the Doom Singer over there is also aware of the Midnight Ripper's existence.

For a while, the scene was very quiet, and no one acted rashly.

The Doom Singer thinks that the Hound and the Midnight Ripper are here to help Tang An. On the contrary, the Midnight Ripper feels that he has fallen into the other party's trap. They all think that they are the weak side and have been "calculated" by others .

The next moment, Midnight Ripper immediately turned around and walked away. At the same time, the Singer of Doom also took a step back. Black mist surged around him and disappeared out of thin air.

The two strong men actually chose to avoid the edge at the same time.

Only the stunned hound and a confused Tang An were left.

Maybe the Hound was too shocked. He knew the power of the Doom Singer and the Midnight Ripper. He met these two killing gods at the same time tonight, and he survived.

It's nothing short of a miracle.

It took the hound a long time to recover, and then he remembered that there was another person here.

He hurriedly turned his head, but what greeted him was a hard flintlock handle.

Tang An struck hard and knocked the hound unconscious.

Naturally, Tang An would not be polite to this criminal, and the other party had planned to put him to death before. The other party was distracted just now, so Tang An could take advantage of it.

After knocking the person unconscious with the handle of the flintlock, Tang An took off the other person's shirt, used the clothes as a rope, trapped the other person's hands, and then directly carried him up and left the scene.

This place should not stay for long.

Anyway, now that the compass has been retrieved, and it is out of danger, it would be a fool not to leave.

　A new week and a new start, Eggplant came here to ask for tickets and collections, if you have spare money, two rounds of rewards are also great.
