A blazing white light bloomed above Woody's head, and the shadows of the ruins and debris all receded at this moment.
——"Flash Technique."
The shadow was like ebbing water, instantly highlighting the hunched-up fey monster in front of him, holding up his pair of pincers to block the sword, with a panicked posture.
Its entire image was illuminated by white light extremely clearly at this moment.
But Woody didn't even blink, he just pushed forward with a slight elbow, and sent the long-edged dagger in his hand into the bully monster's jaw.
Push harder and insert it deeper!
He didn't stop until the dagger's handle was close to the slightly rough skin of the bully monster.
Then his left hand exerted force instantly, and the handle of the dagger rotated, immediately wiping out the consciousness of the weak monster who was still trying to struggle.
"The shadow ambush was launched successfully."
"Thrust activates."
"The thrust is successful*3, causing 30 (+4) points of fatal damage to the target."
"Target is dead."
"Successfully killed the bully monster and gained 132 experience points."
…
Watch the data torrent unfold within your field of vision.
Only then did Woody let go of the dagger handle with relief, and then began to search the monster's corpse for any relics similar to Brendan Fraser's.
It's a pity that the corpse of this bully monster is similar to the previous ones. From the perspective of trophies, it can't be said that they are unrelated, it can only be said that they are exactly the same.
The same thing made him return empty-handed.
But Woody was not discouraged. Touching the corpse was just a matter of inertia.
It's the best, and if not, he won't be disappointed.
As long as he doesn't have expectations at the beginning, no disappointment can knock him down.
Moreover, he also remembered the original purpose of coming here, which was to gain experience for himself to upgrade and to look for traces of the little girl Lin.
As for the rewards, Woody really didn't expect to gain much from this mission. The brass rings and illusion cards this time have exceeded his expectations.
Now that all the bully monsters on the surface of the circus have been cleared.
Woody also arrived at the entrance to the tunnel that he had discovered from the beginning.
At first glance, the passage appears to be deep and tortuous, neither wide nor high. It is quite narrow. The narrowest point can only accommodate one person to pass through, and the height is so low that people need to bend down to enter.
In addition, there are no lighting tools on both sides of the corridor, and it is pitch black. It is estimated that ordinary people will have a difficult time moving forward without torches.
However, as a demon hunter, Woody has a certain range of dark vision, so this difficulty is not a problem for him.
On the contrary, darkness is more conducive to him acting alone.
After all, combined with his nimble footsteps and his eyes that can see things in the dark, it can be said that it is difficult to alert those weak monsters who rely on their senses to catch the enemy's traces in the dark.
If he took the young monk girl with him today, he would have to consider her feelings and forcibly take her underground without light, which would only add to his burden out of thin air.
Now, it is very convenient to move alone.
Before entering the corridor, Woody put away the long sword and replaced it with the spare long-edged dagger in his right hand - in such a short corridor, there was no difference between fighting with a long sword and seeking death.
The stealth skills of the Shadow Snake School allowed Woody to make almost no sound when he moved into the corridor. Combined with the dark hunting suit and trousers, it can be said that the camouflage is to the extreme.
Without a light source, even if you are within one meter of the creature, it would be difficult to see its outline without looking carefully.
He became one with the wall, and even his breathing followed the sound of the wind as he passed through the corridor.
It was very uncomfortable to bend down and enter the corridor. Fortunately, the distance was not long. Woody advanced about ten or twenty meters in the corridor and turned two 120-degree turns. The top of his head was originally restrained.
The top layer of dirt at his height disappeared, replaced by an abandoned mine that could accommodate two or three carriages.
Mine?
Drilling out of the narrow passage, Woody discovered that this passage was actually connected to an abandoned mine in the mountain. No wonder the diary said there was no treasure. That was what it meant...
However, because it is close to the sea, the mine is dark and humid, and Woody can even hear the sound of dripping water echoing deep in the cave.
There were shallow ruts on the soil under Woody's feet, leading to the depths of the mine.
After walking a few steps, Woody found several more branch entrances to the mine ahead.
But he doesn't need to worry about getting lost, because due to telepathy, as long as he is close to Lin, he can detect her location. Similarly, the group of bullying monsters are also the brightest beacons in the darkness, guiding Woody's progress.
After a while, Woody found the correct path to the bully monster's lair from the three forked roads.
There is a tunnel on the left with a nearly circular opening, where Woody's feelings are strongest and clearest.
As before, Woody used telepathy to disguise himself as a bully monster, making the bully monsters in the lair think it was his companion returning.
There were several detours along the way, but his spiritual sense allowed Woody to successfully avoid the wrong path.
As the tunnel deepened, the surrounding walls changed from having traces of mining picks to the walls and ceiling of the tunnel covered with dark moss. The sound of water coming from the tunnel behind him gradually became fainter.
Woody knows.
This is the magic power overflowing from the Fairy Wilderness that is transforming this cave.
This magical moss dampens all sounds, including echoes, creating a claustrophobic feeling.
However, this did not make Woody feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he became more and more relaxed. Soon, he followed the induction and found his way to a hole with the strongest telepathy.
In order to cover his dazzling eyes in the darkness, Woody covered himself with a ribbon that would not affect his vision. After doing this, Woody put half of his head into the hole and started to watch.
This is a naturally formed stone chamber three meters high and about ten meters long. Like the tunnel, it is covered with dark moss. The most eye-catching thing is the five or six people in the middle of this stone chamber.
A huge stone slab the same height.
The stone slabs are covered with blood stains and dirt, which are the traces left by tortured people. In addition to mental torture, bully monsters are also very interested in physical torture. In their view, only the mind and body
The double torture can most effectively transform them into the same kind.
And the little blond girl who disappeared and had a relationship with Woody was lying on a stone slab at the moment. Her dress was in tatters, her exposed calves and arms were covered with bruises and blood marks, and her amber eyes were at this moment.
He also became lifeless, and just like his pale and bloodless face, he lost his vitality.
Surrounding the stone slab were four bully monsters of about the same height. This time, they did not sneak into the shadows. Instead, they waved the giant pliers in their hands or used other tools to inflict almost cruel torture on the blond girl on the stone slab.
The telepathy of their insect heads exudes full of human joy and happiness, as if they saw their compatriots who were successfully transformed on the stone slab not long after.
They also sensed the return of their companion, and were about to excitedly invite it to participate in this feast of destruction.
But what they didn't expect was that there was no familiar figure at the entrance of the cave.
Just when they were curious and wanted to go out to take a look, a bright light fell from the sky on the ceiling, making the cave that had not seen light for hundreds of days look like daylight.
The young hunter, who was clinging to the top of the rock wall with his legs supporting his body, looked down at the bully monster who was looking for him.
His face was cold and ruthless, and the sword in his hand fell with his body.
Aiming at the head of a bully monster, he chopped it off without mercy.
