"Come on, let's go and see, Ironhide! Dust! Let's go!"
She skipped out of the door, not forgetting to call out the iron sheet and wall dust in the house.
Skadi stuffed all the remaining snacks into the hands of the bench, got up and came to Ashes.
"She said that the person who touches the red shell will go to the beach, and then there will be food the next day?"
"Well, very suspicious."
This is of course, because there is nothing in that sea.
Looking at each other, the two also followed Anita's steps out of the house and walked towards the place where the residents gathered.
They were still silent, queuing up in front of the jar made of iron buckets, each of them took out a shell and then left without a word, like an assembly line.
But the strange thing is that next to this group of long-standing residents, there are still some wandering residents. They are a little sluggish, and they just stand there without touching the shells.
And the other residents didn't seem to see them, they still lined up on their own.
"What happened to those people?"
Ashes asked, his perception became clearer after his spiritual vision had been improved, and a faint fishy smell kept coming.
"They, those people are the 'chosen ones' designated by the priest. I heard that they will not be hungry, and they can have more time to communicate with the priest. Of course, they don't have to touch shells."
"The Chosen One..."
Skadi chewed on this somewhat concerned word, and her spiritual vision also improved, and she could feel that something was wrong with these residents.
After tidying up her hat, she wanted to go forward and ask, but when she got close to these people, their reactions were very abnormal.
"guuu——"
Their sluggish expressions just now changed suddenly, like beasts that had been broken into their territory, and they also let out low-pitched growls that were not human.
It was only then that Skadi noticed that the normal villagers were all far away from these chosen ones, as if they had expected it.
The sights of the chosen ones who were also wandering on the edge converged on Skadi, like wild beasts on the eve of hunting, ready to pounce on their prey at any time.
Squeezing the strap of the box containing her great sword in her hand, Skadi slowly backed away, and when she retreated to a certain limit, her gaze disappeared instantly, and she became dull again.
"These people are weird."
"That sight doesn't look like a human..."
Gently patted Skadi on the shoulder, Ashes signaled her not to worry.
He had a hunch that part of the mystery would be revealed tonight.
When night falls and the full moon hangs high, the truth of the world will also be revealed.
It was a night of chaos and madness.
--------
It was getting close to night, and the crowd that had just gathered gradually dispersed. They were all clutching their shells tightly, not letting others know what color it was.
And Ashes and Skadi are also ready to find a foothold, after all, it is still a bit difficult to blow the sea breeze all night.
Anita originally wanted to keep the two of them to spend the night in the house, but after looking at the wrecked door, she withdrew her idea and volunteered to be a tour guide, trying to find the best house for the two of them. .
"Although the houses in the north are better, people don't come here very often. Maybe there will be unexpected gains."
Anita said excitedly, this kind of feeling like an adventure and treasure hunt fascinated her, Ashes and Skadi followed her, letting her lead the twists and turns.
The already gloomy sky is getting darker with the passage of time, and the night is approaching.
Regarding Anita's request to find the best house, Ashes himself didn't have any expectations. On the one hand, he didn't care about it, and on the other hand, in this dilapidated city, where else could he find the best house?
Therefore, Ashes searched together with Anita in a playful nature, answering her strange questions from time to time.
【...】
Ashes' footsteps stopped for a moment, and he looked around, but there was nothing but a piece of house wreckage.
【...】
There seems to be some sound in the ear, it is a call that penetrates to the soul.
【...The good hunter...】
Ashes stopped, Anita and Skadi looked at him strangely, not understanding why Ashes stopped suddenly.
That is...
Under the hunting hat, his gaze was looking straight in one direction, as if he wanted to see through the countless ruined walls between them, and reach there directly.
Ashes started to run, his figure was as nimble as a ghost, as fierce as a thunderbolt, and the long hunter windbreaker fluttered frantically behind him.
Near, near, near.
In his heart, the call from the blood became clearer, and the lantern at his waist gradually glowed, and it was also urging Ashes to go faster.
Turning a corner, Ashes' dashing figure immediately became still, and then turned into extremely still.
What appeared in front of him was an ordinary small house, such houses are everywhere in Yanfeng City, just like those, this small house in front of him is also dilapidated, with a big hole in the roof, There is only half of the door at the door, which is still tenaciously connected, blocking Ashes' sight, making it difficult to see what is inside.
Ashes took a step forward, step by step, he finally came to the door, stretched out his hand and pushed lightly, and the door fell down, stirring up a cloud of dust.
The scene in the house finally caught his eyes. In the messy house, a woman sat quietly in it. Her whole body was spotless and independent from the world.
Even in such a gloomy world, the silver hair still has a little gleam. The thick and complicated gothic clothing wraps her whole body, only her face and hands are exposed, but she looks more dignified, with a doll-like appearance. refinement.
She also has doll-like ball joints on her knuckles, but it adds to her otherworldly beauty.
Her eyes were closed tightly, her expression was gentle, with a slight smile.
as always.
At this time, Skadi and Anita, who was out of breath, also arrived. When they entered the room and saw the woman, they also had to exclaim that it was indeed a beauty beyond the world.
She is a puppet, a person who walks with the hunter. On that night when the blood moon was high, it was the puppet who did her best to help Ashes, just like the fire lady when the ashes spread fire.
Dolls are to hunters what the Fire Lady is to ashes.
Ashes stepped forward and lightly touched the puppet's hand.The touch is the same as that of human beings, delicate and warm.
But the puppet still didn't respond. She sat on the chair, motionless, like a real puppet.
Seeing that the doll was not moving, Ashes pondered for a moment, stretched out the tip of his index finger, and a drop of blood spewed out quietly, with a confused bright red light.
The index finger caressed the doll's soft lips, staining the pale lips with blood red, and then she moved.
Opening its mouth slightly, and licking the blood from Ashes, the puppet opened its eyes. She also has azure blue eyes that are very similar to Maria, or the faces of the two are very similar.
"Here you come, good hunter. I knew you would find me."
The puppet got up from the chair, pinched the heavy skirt with both hands, and bowed to Ashes. When she raised her head, her face was already full of gentle smiles.
"Well, I will never forget you."
Ashes also took off the three-cornered hat, looked at the puppet and said.Being able to meet dolls here undoubtedly brought some guidance to this mysterious trip.
"You must be wondering why you came here, why you encountered abnormal situations one after another, why there are superiors, and..."
"What are the various entanglements in this lady, please let me answer for you."
She took Ashes' hand and turned it around briskly, the hem of her skirt turned into blooming flowers, and gently pushed him towards the chair.
After the ashes were settled, the puppet also nodded slightly to Skadi and Anita, signaling them to come together.
"Call me?"
"Of course, this lady. And this little lady, too."
For some reason, Skadi and Anita came to the side of the puppet and the sitting Ashes.
Seeing that everyone was here, the puppet clapped its hands lightly, attracting everyone's attention.
"Okay, then it's time to explain."
"First of all, good hunter, the letter in the dream is exactly what I left behind, and I am the one who guided you to this Saltwind City."
Stretching out a finger to touch Ashes' lips that wanted to say something, the puppet smiled lightly and continued.
"And the high-ranking people entrenched in this city, I have also known their existence for a long time. This is one of the reasons why I guided you here."
"Good hunter, you still have an unfinished mission. It is heavy and arduous, and it will last forever. This is something that only you can do, only you..."
Reaching out a hand to gently stroke the hair on Ashes' forehead, the expression on the puppet is a bit strange, with a bit of pity, a bit of sadness, and there are more things that Ashes can't understand.
"There are more things that I should not tell you. Please move on, kind hunter, I will always be by your side."
"And the matter about this lady is in the deep sea..."
Just as the puppet was about to continue talking, she paused and stopped talking.
"It seems that we can only wait for the next time, what a pity."
A young girl's energetic shout came from outside this dilapidated small house, and the words were mixed with awe-inspiring righteousness.
"Listen, people inside, you are surrounded! According to the law of Iberia, I will expel you from this city!"
The girl's voice was full of air, but...
In Ashes' perception, there was only a petite figure shouting with arms crossed outside the house, and if you looked outside, there were ruins.
What is this?A person's encirclement?
ps
Because the average order will soon break through 4k, so we should first update the 4k word to support it, otherwise the drop will be too sharp
Chapter 174+175 Tonight, Ashes joins the hunt【4k】
Ashes, the puppet, Skadi, Anita, the four of them came out of the small room with a roar, and they still had such a bit of power just by standing there.
Ashes in hunter suits, dolls in doll costumes, Skadi in red dresses, Anita in black dresses, everyone has very different looks, such a combination can be called strange.
"Huh? Why is there one more...Forget it, it doesn't matter."
The judge, who was still aggressive outside just now, saw a group of people coming out of the house, he couldn't help but lower his tone, but then he became tough again.
This kid, isn't he holding on?
As Ashes thought about it, that Evelyn appeared in his hand again.
It seems that the last well-intentioned intimidation did not stop the girl from her actions. Are people driven by a sense of justice such idiots?Knowing that there is danger ahead, you charge without hesitation?
