In the dark forest, the moonlight is like mist, completely blending into this cold and quiet area.
With bursts of hissing sounds, from far to near.
Not long after, several dark figures, dragging something, approached the cemetery from a distance.
Bang.
One of them threw something in his hand to the ground.
The moonlight just illuminated that thing.
They were clearly human corpses tied up with ropes.
More than a dozen corpses were tied together to form a large cylinder, and they were dragged all the way by the shadowy figure, their flesh and blood blurring over.
As the banging sound continued, the other figures also threw the things in their hands to the ground.
Under the moonlight, it turned out that these were all cylinders made of corpses.
"It's a pity that the applications for the few children we were interested in today were not approved. Otherwise, the food would taste much better than these old, weak, sick and disabled people."
A figure raised his hand and licked the sharp, knife-like fingers on his hand.
"Everything else in Ningzhou is good. There is a lot of meat, but the rules are too annoying. People who want to eat in the city have to submit an application, and they have to specially plan accidents. Other cities don't have so much trouble." Another figure said impatiently.
"If you can't beat the guys from the Nine Demons Guild, who would be willing to abide by such troublesome rules?"
Several dark figures squatted down, picked up the body, and began to chew on the neck.
Amidst the crunching sounds of flesh and blood, these recently killed corpses were gradually chewed to pieces and their limbs were separated.
Just as a few demons were feasting, a small white shadow flew over quickly from the cemetery not far away, and in the blink of an eye it stopped not far from the demons.
As the petite shadow got closer, I saw clearly that it was a snow-white little squirrel.
This seemingly extremely rare white squirrel looks quite cute, but when it saw the cruel scene in front of it, it showed no fear at all.
Instead, his hind legs straightened up and he stood up like a human being.
"There are instructions from above. The guys from the Nine Demons Association want us to find the whereabouts of Xue Dong and Lu Jiu. The first one to find them can choose a blood food in the city to enjoy. As long as they are not from the Marshal's Mansion, they can.
"
The voice of the white squirrel came from the mouth, as if it were a real person, and the words were spoken in a clear and precise manner.
"This way we don't have to eat these old, weak, sick and disabled people all the time!" Several black figures suddenly stopped moving, and they were all a little surprised.
This is the way of the world. Only the real transformed monsters can choose the living people in the city to hunt at will. The other lower-level monsters must submit applications, and only after they are confirmed can they be eligible for hunting.
Otherwise, it will be regarded as a provocation to the demon organization in the area, and then they will be hunted down.
It's like if you go to someone else's house and steal someone else's food, you should be hunted down.
"Is this true?" a demon asked hesitantly.
"It's absolutely true." White Squirrel nodded, "The head of the Nine Demons Association has not returned from the trip. It was the current head Yun Si who personally issued this order. There is absolutely no mistake."
It continued: "We just need to be careful about those Demon Purification Teams who deserve to die."
For low-level demons, the Demon Purifier Team is their main opponent.
As for the transformed demons and mid-to-high-level demons, they have more of a tacit understanding with the Demon Purification Team.
Or there is a certain tacit understanding with Yue Hao, an alliance formed by many warlords behind the Jingmo Team.
Not only do medium and high-level demons not mess around, but they occasionally help maintain order.
As long as the Demon Purification Team doesn't run into mid- to high-level monsters and kill them randomly, they won't take the initiative to attack.
Both sides exercised restraint.
This seemingly fragile relationship has actually lasted for more than ten years.
At the same time, many demons in other places and throughout Ningzhou City received rewards from Yun Si for finding the blood cave and the whereabouts of Lu Jiu.
All of a sudden, all the demons inside and outside Ningzhou began to take action.
You must know that people are different.
Being able to choose blood food at will in the extremely protective Ningzhou City, then they might be able to choose some delicious food that is born with abnormal constitutions.
This type of food they call spiritually endowed.
At this time, the demons were swarming around.
In the courtyard where Wei He is.
He was carefully writing and drawing on the paper, marking something on the side from time to time.
The courtyard is illuminated by lights.
On a wooden stake in one corner, the body of a girl whose blood had been drained was tied.
This monster was already dead. Of course, before she died, she struggled violently and tried to howl. This was the main cause of her death.
After all, Wei He couldn't use his true strength to isolate the surroundings, so in order to avoid causing a big disturbance, he had no choice but to stab her heart immediately and tear off her vocal cords.
This made Wei He feel a little regretful.
Although he dissected the body of the little monster in time, he still felt that something disappeared quickly with her death.
"A simple dissection of her body doesn't look much different from humans, so what is it that makes her different from ordinary people? What's the biggest difference between demons and humans?"
Wei He felt that he still lacked some materials. It would be great if there were more comprehensive materials for comparison.
He had seen too many human bodies when he was studying poison channels.
At that time, when the plague spread, the most indispensable thing was corpses.
But with the demon corpse, he needs more materials to figure out what the demon power is.
Now that the road ahead is cut off, one of his purposes is to find his senior sister, and his second purpose is to find a new path.
Having the Realm-Breaking Pearl, he doesn't think that he will stop at the previous era because of the great changes in the world.
"Perhaps you can give it a try and use that one." Wei He frowned slightly.
After thinking about it, he was about to continue writing, but a slight movement in the distance outside made him pause with his arms.
"Another one?" Wei He's face showed a look of joy.
He put down his pen and stood up.
Whoosh!
With a crisp sound, his entire body disappeared from the spot.
This kind of speed is already extremely fast for ordinary people, but for him, if he wasn't worried about breaking the sound barrier and making a sound, he wouldn't have to suppress himself like this.
In a street alley not far away.
A young woman who came home a little late and wanted to take a shortcut was being stalked by a tall black shadow with a bull's head, which was 1.9 meters tall. She was so frightened that her face turned pale.
"Blood food! Such tender blood food." The bull-headed black figure gasped and opened his hands.
call!
It lunged forward suddenly.
Swish.
The black shadow of the bull's head disappeared out of thin air.
The woman had her eyes closed, her whole body was cold, her throat was blocked, and she could not make any sound. Her body was completely unable to move.
It was only after she waited for a while that she realized that the surroundings were quiet.
When she opened her eyes, she was shocked to see nothing in front of her.
Another place.
A young man in brocade clothes who had just come out of the restaurant loosened his belt, hiccupped with wine, and was about to go to the latrine to pee.
A beautiful girl with snow-white skin, holding a lantern in her hand, strolled down the street not far away.
The beautiful girl smiled slightly at Mr. Jin Yi and gave him a silent hook.
Young Master Jinyi trembled all over, swallowed his saliva, and was about to move forward.
Swish.
Suddenly there was a crisp sound, and the beautiful girl holding the lantern disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. Only a delicate yellow lantern that was still burning was left on the spot.
Mr. Jin Yi blinked, completely unaware of what happened.
Night is the best action cover-up color.
So when Wei He started to take action, he became more relaxed.
He simply distorted his facial muscles, changed his face, and then put on slim-fitting clothes to prevent the airflow from making noise and blocking his speed.
After all, nowadays we can’t use our true strength, we can only pay attention to many details.
One night, he went around catching monsters, and he caught more than a dozen low-level monsters here and there.
These more than ten demons are all in human form, and they still have more or less demonic characteristics on their bodies.
Such as horns, tail, sheep's hooves, etc.
Compared with the previous little girl demon and the middle-aged female demon, they are much different.
Through the study and anatomy of multiple experimental subjects in vivo, Wei He discovered that these monsters all have a common characteristic.
That is, when they use demonic power, they start to output it from the heart.
In other words, the heart is the core of their demon power.
The sky is getting brighter.
Wei He dragged the corpses into the room and hung them on the wall with iron hooks to dry.
Then I went back to my desk and carefully recorded the test research data.
Time seemed to go back to the time when he was studying poison.
Life at that time was really pure and comfortable.
After taking notes, Wei He looked up at the demon corpse on the wall.
"There are too many types of monsters. Maybe we can compile a complete list of monster types? Someone must have done this before. Since there is a demon purification team, it means that they must have a lot of this kind of information."
He felt that he had a chance to communicate with the Demon Purification Team.
Of course, we must first study the source of the demon's power.
He had a preliminary idea.
Perhaps we can use Huazhenjin to transform the idea of Sanxinjue into a demon version
If you can find a strong enough demon heart, you may be able to achieve your goal of gaining demon power.
But what Wei He is worried about is that because of this goal, he doesn't want to become like a monster and have to eat people.
"So more data research is needed."
He looked away from the demon.
However, he got a lot of clues from these monsters.
In particular, there were two wandering demons from out of town. The information they provided was quite valuable.
From their mouths, Wei He learned that on the surface of Dayue today.
Apart from having the same attitude towards demons, warlords often have frictions with each other and wars break out.
The scale of these wars varies from time to time. They broke out various wars for their ambition to unify the moon. In addition to the support of demons, there are also many foreign forces supporting them.
In order to seek more support and benefits, weapons, etc., many warlords continue to promise various treasonous treaties.
This made Wei He understand that this era was not peaceful.
Even for civilians, it is very cruel.
And the current situation made him involuntarily think of that period of modern history in his previous life.
Today's Big Moon is somewhat similar to that of the past.
The only difference is probably that Otsuki has not been invaded by many foreign forces.
Also, the demonic forces within Otsuki may have formed a new fragile balance from the other side, restraining the situation from completely collapsing.
