Proof of the Sun King

The sky was bright, and a black figure shuttled through the forest. His speed was very fast, but there was not much sound.

The figure was wearing a bowler hat, a cape and a tuxedo, outdated trousers and black leather boots. His face was hidden under the kerchief and cape, and his face was barely visible. All he could see was His blood-red eyes, which had become cloudy, and the blue-gray, densely covered surface of his skin were like worm-like threads attached to the surface of his skin.

"Hey hey~ This person wants to catch me?" The black figure took out his pocket watch and smiled disdainfully. As the evil god's power continued to descend, more rot and abscess appeared on his body. You can feel maggots crawling around the wound.

It's just that these are not important things. He can feel that a powerful force is constantly entering his body. Every minute and every second, he feels that he is getting stronger!

He suddenly felt that the oath he had made to eliminate chaos was so ridiculous. For more than ten years, he had worked hard to eliminate evil, fighting with cultists again and again, for the so-called oath of justice, for the sake of The so-called defense of mankind.

Defend humanity... Hehe, I can't even protect the woman I love.

"Oh~ ah ah!" The strong burning pain in the body made Belt scream out. Since he chose to fall, his figure will be eroded by chaos and be completely transformed. This process is extremely painful. , even the master demon hunter has a strong endurance, and is almost crazy under this pain.

"Now, not yet!" A mouthful of black blood spurted out of Belt's mouth. Before he could wipe it off, he desperately ran towards the depths of the forest. Now is the critical time for mutation.

"Tsk, I still need it, be patient." The black figure disappeared into the depths of the forest.

There were a lot of bright red bloodstains on the ground. This was left by another old witcher who came to chase him. The two used to fight side by side to expel the evil. Now they parted ways. The gap, Belt is very clear about Grant's fighting skills and fighting habits. After the strength of the fallen hunter has greatly increased, the old witcher is naturally not his opponent, and he was killed. It's just that Belt is in the process of mutation and has no time to spend any more time. I chased my old comrade who was seriously injured.

The heavy snow that had been falling for several days showed no sign of stopping. Ryan walked out of the town and walked alone in the world of ice and snow.

The Nord Kingdom is densely forested, and most of the forests are boreal coniferous forests. In this heavy snow day, the coniferous forests are filled with a lot of snow, so you need to be careful, move a little bigger, and a lot of snow from the trees. Falling down would cause a loud noise, and although Ryan wasn't afraid, he didn't want to get into trouble.

Step by step toward the destination, the forest was eerily quiet. Thinking of this, Ryan not only sighed deeply: The original forest was not like this.

The original forest was beautiful and full of life, but after the advent of chaos hundreds of years ago, mutant beastmen who were polluted by chaos also appeared. Wherever these beastmen tribes passed, trees would decay and die, and animals would mutate. And form a new Chaos Beastmen, the land and water sources will be polluted, stink, backflow, desertification occurs from time to time, so Chaos Beastmen and casters who can cause alchemy pollution are the two most hated people in the Church of Nature, as long as these things appear In their sight, the Church of nature will not hesitate to dispatch to kill them.

The Nord Kingdom is not bad here. Because the climate is too cold, even the Beastmen are not willing to stay too long. In Brittany or the Empire in the south, the powerful Beastmen tribe is almost the gangrene of the country. These tribes of beastmen, which are in the hundreds of thousands at every turn, are barren. They will kill everything that is alive. The empire has fought several wars with the beastmen, and even the emperor himself led the royal guard to go out, and the tribe of beastmen Battle in the forest near the capital.

Thanks to these chaotic beastmen, the forest has now become a very dangerous place. Unless it is safe to confirm the safety of those deep forests, there are powerful monsters infested. Most of the lords stipulate that hunters cannot enter the forest for more than two days. Where, even then, a lot of towns basically kill a hunter or two every month.

Two hours after entering the forest, the kingdom knight's mouth twitched: "A corpse?"

The sun has gone down, and under a big tree not far away, sits an old witcher with a torn stomach. The old witcher looks in his fifties, his blue-gray complexion and dried blood shows that he has He had been dead for a long time. The silver sword that should have been on his back disappeared. The steel sword was also broken and thrown aside. His abdomen was directly peeled and penetrated. There were multiple fatal wounds on his chest. Under the weak moonlight, Ryan noticed Even though he was dead, the old witcher was still holding a sharp knife in his hand. The leather jacket on his body was damaged in many places, obviously after a fierce battle, so Ryan tried to get closer to see what was going on. matter.

Just a few steps closer, Ryan suddenly felt that he stepped on something and made a clicking sound.

not good! There are organs!

A dozen or so sharpened wooden cones were instantly shot from the snow-covered branches above, and at the same time, the sound of heavy snow falling on the ground sounded, and a cylindrical trunk was pulled by a branch and quickly moved from the side next to it. A big tree swayed up and down, towards Ryan's position.

Ryan's originally gentle eyes became sharp, and he clenched the warhammer in his hand.

"咻咻咻~" The wooden cone in the air spurted, Ryan's right hand shook, and the warhammer was instantly lifted above his head. Under Ryan's action, the long-handled warhammer spun in the air at a very fast speed, inside the cold woods A whirlwind was blown, and the wooden cones shot from the air were quickly knocked away, and the danger from the air was lifted.

Then, the kingdom knight switched the warhammer to his left hand, clenched his fist with his free right hand, and struck directly at the swinging tree trunk. With a "bang", the tree trunk split into several pieces from the center and fell to the ground.

"I was attacked and fled here with frequent deaths. Even if I lost most of my mobility, I still hid in this place and waited for rescue. I also made traps, but in the end, because of my injuries, I still died, right?" Ryan After examining the old witcher, who was already dead, he roughly guessed what had happened.

"Did you escape here with serious injuries?"

After the badly wounded old witcher escaped here, he made traps and hid here to rest, hoping to be rescued, maybe he shot a loud arrow, maybe not, but it doesn't matter, the truth is the unlucky old witcher Without waiting for rescue, given his severely injured physique, it was impossible for him to last two days in this ice and snow, and he died of excessive bleeding in the cold.

Death happens every day, and Ryan is accustomed to it. In the early years, he saw his teammates have their heads directly bitten by the bear spirit. Now a cold corpse can't give him such a strong shock. Out of courtesy, he put this The poor old hunter hastily buried and took his valuables as his reward.

"???" This is... Ryan noticed something was protecting the old witcher's arms.

Put away the dozen or so gold dinars that the old witcher brought, Ryan took out a pocket watch from his arms.

Pocket watches are very precious things in this world. Non-dwarves or military craftsmen of the empire cannot make them. Due to professional reasons, witchers are more concerned about time. Most of them will spend a lot of money to buy a pocket watch.

Opening the pocket watch, it was a portrait of the old witcher family. He, his wife, and his two children all smiled and looked at Ryan.

Ryan took a deep breath, clenched his fists hard, and the bones of his palm made a "karakala" sound.

"Belt!!! I will definitely catch you!!!"

"What? That is to say that a fallen hunter named Belt is being hunted?" The imperial merchant Oliver was sitting in the carriage, and the guards rode their horses and drove the carriage down the road. The samurai was on a mission, and Oliver immediately thought of the series of rumors he had heard before, so he grabbed a paladin and asked.

What he was holding was a young paladin who looked to be in his twenties. His brows were somewhat rebellious, unlike the paladin who took the lead. His eyebrows were covered with frost, and when the young paladin saw it, he was a The businessman's tone was not very pleasant: "Yes, in order to hunt down this fallen hunter, we have already lost the lives of several comrades, so please don't hinder our actions, this gentleman?"

As soon as this statement came out, Oliver also felt a little unhappy. The confrontation between the merchants and the paladins was very obvious. The paladins hated the philistines of the merchants. The nosy style of doing things always cuts their way of making money. For this reason, some shops and auction houses do not welcome paladins, while some paladins would rather go hunting and mining than go to the store to buy things. .

But life matters. No matter what you say, the paladins are at least reasonable. God knows if you meet that fallen hunter, will your life still be there? So Oliver held back his anger, spread his hands to show his goodwill, and said, "Well, are you planning to pass through the forest in front? If you don't dislike it, let's act together, and there will be someone to take care of along the way."

"Who wants to act with someone like you..." The young paladin was only halfway through when he was interrupted by the leading paladin, who looked to be in his fifties with blond hair already on his head. Nearly white, with a rough face, he has a one-handed sword on his waist, a shield on his back, and the golden pattern on his helmet shows that he should be the leader: "Okay, Alex, polite, did my bishop give us Have you forgotten the rules?"

"Dang... Of course I didn't forget." The young paladin stopped talking.

"Unfortunately, this gentleman, we are just patrolling the neighborhood and have no plans to enter the forest." The older paladin shook his head again to signal the young paladin named Alex to shut up: "Sir, please do it."

After speaking, the paladin team left in the other direction.

A guard looked at the snow-covered forest in front of him, swallowed, and turned around and asked, "Boss, shall we continue?"

Oliver watched the road extend into the forest, and was finally swallowed up by the forest where the end could not be seen clearly. He gritted his teeth: "Go! Can't delay any longer!"

"Yes!"

Oliver and his party finally entered the forest. The sound of the wheels of the wagon screeched in the quiet forest. When the wheels hit a small stone and made a sound, Oliver felt his heart tremble.

So dark, so dark, sitting in a carriage. The imperial merchant looked around nervously, and he only felt that in the dark forest, something seemed to be swimming.

A deep sense of unease enveloped the merchant and his guards. Oliver took out a pendant made of pure gold from his chest and prayed silently.

"Your Majesty the Goddess of Fortune, please give me peace, Your Majesty the Goddess of Wealth, please grant me peace."

Most of the businessmen believe in the goddess of wealth, but most of them are pseudo-believers and pan-believers. Pseudo-believers just tell others that I believe in this god. It's almost the same, but there are more prayer meetings.

A long period of prayer seemed to have played a role. They successfully advanced for three hours and entered the depths of the forest. At this time, the physical strength of the horses and guards had reached a critical point, and they decided to take a break.

"I'm going to get some ice." A guard took the iron pot and planned to go to the nearby river to get some ice and boil it to make soup.

Unexpectedly, the guard did not come back after leaving for half an hour.

Oliver gradually felt that something was wrong. The businessman was sitting against a big tree, with a kettle in his hand that was filled with warm water that had just boiled, and a piece of bacon in the other hand, looking towards the river again. Afterwards, the businessman asked a guard nervously, "Fake? Why didn't Meier come back after going for so long?"

The guard named Fake shook his head suddenly: "I don't know ~www.novelmt.com~ Boss, I..."

"咴咴!!!" The neighing of the horses interrupted the conversation of several people, followed by the slight tremor of the ground.

dong dong dong dong~

Hearing this voice, the expressions of several people changed greatly. Fake subconsciously threw away the spoon that was holding the soup in his hand, and immediately held the hilt of his long sword. Oliver even crawled and hid behind his guard. , completely ignoring that the fur coat on his body was covered with snow and mud, he looked pale at the location where the sound was made in the depths of the forest, feeling that his heartbeat was getting faster and faster.

dong~dong~dong~

"Wow wow wow!" A small war dog first appeared in front of several people. The appearance of this war dog was very ugly, and there were all kinds of terrifying scars on his face, and a white mouth appeared in his open mouth. Disgusting saliva is slowly dripping from the fangs of Sen Sen.

"The Chaos War Dog is the Beastmen War Gang!!" Fake screamed, grabbing the crossbow machine behind him and pulling the trigger directly at the war dog.

"Hey~" A crossbow arrow slid through the icy air and plunged straight into the middle of the war dog's head. The war dog gave a miserable howl, and the charging body shook, and it died suddenly on the way.

"Okay!" Oliver clenched his fists and whispered, but before he could finish saying a word, a dozen war dogs rushed forward. Full of thirst for blood, it is frightening.

It's a Beastman, a terrifying Beastman, a Beastman who can stop a child from crying anywhere on the continent, a Beastman known as "Gnex of the Earth" and "Sail of Calamity"!

Here comes the Beastman!
