NOVEL NEXT Chapter 59
59 059 Demon Hunter _1
A quiet and uninhabited farm.
The early autumn moonlight already had a slight chill.
Outside the wooden house.
The wall that was as tall as two people had a hole in it.
At the back door of the kitchen.
A wet humanoid creature was pressed against the wooden door, its body twisting and turning in a strange way.
Along with this irregular movement, the wooden door also made a strange sound that made one’s teeth ache.
..
[ water ghost level 22, HP 190, defense 11, weak earth ]
[ trait 1: immense strength ]
[ immense strength: the strength of the water ghost is usually not less than 16 points, and it is difficult for the creatures caught by them to escape. ]
[ special trait 2: corpse poison ]
[ corpse poison: the claws, teeth, and bodily fluids of the water ghost carry corpse poison. Corpse poison has a strong infectious ability. There is a certain chance of the person infected by corpse poison turning into a water ghost poison. ]
..
a monster with the earth element as its weakness is a little rare.
On a beech tree outside the wall.
Roger yawned as he pulled out the red Moon.
It was not unusual for monsters to visit in the middle of the night. After all, a tributary of the sela River was half a kilometer away.
The special characteristics of water ghosts were enough to make most people change their expressions.
But to Roger, it was just a matter of one stab.
However, just as he was about to make a move, a shrill red color appeared in his vision!
In the direction of the sela River.
Three more figures staggered over.
Roger’s expression changed slightly.
Among the three new water ghosts, there was a level 28 elite monster.
I can’t be careless.
He raised his spirits, grabbed Chi Yue, and jumped lightly.
His body steadily landed on the round wooden wall.
His footsteps were light as he nimbly walked along the wall.
Not far away.
The three drunkard-like water ghosts had discovered Roger!
All of a sudden.
The water ghosts ‘movement speed increased by a large margin!
They rushed toward Roger, letting out strange roars.
Roger remained unmoved. He continued to move quickly on the wall at his own pace.
After a short while.
The gap between the three water ghosts widened …
That elite monster ran the fastest!
He came to the side of the wall and grabbed it angrily. He actually made a hole in the solid round wood!
Roger jumped and landed on the ground steadily.
The next second.
He suddenly pulled out Red Moon!
The cool moonlight added a few ghostly colors to the Scarlet shadow.
The special skill of pupil-cutting was activated.
The elite water ghost’s reaction was not slow. The moment Roger landed on the ground and drew his sword, it had already turned around and roared at Roger!
But Roger was even faster!
With the double buffs of [ moon treading steps ] and [ cloud ladder leap ], he arrived in front of the water ghost in the blink of an eye!
His body slightly paused.
The elite water ghost pounced over.
In the blink of an eye.
The nails covered in mud and algae were about to touch Roger’s scalp.
“Now!”
Roger, who had deliberately exposed an opening, lowered his head and body, then accelerated and suddenly appeared behind the elite water ghost.
Then, he suddenly jumped up.
Upgrade.
The brilliance of the 19th moon.
The sixth move.
Triple slash!
Wherever the blade light went, the elite water ghost’s body would crack like glass!
Head, chest, waist, and lower limbs.
Four pieces of broken body parts fell to the ground.
At this moment.
Roger finally smelled the nauseating stench.
..
[you have leveled up to level 20.]
[your attributes have increased.]
[ you have received 1 free attribute point. ]
[ you have obtained a new specialty-long Energy ]
[ long energy: when not in combat, your stamina consumption will be reduced by 40%; ]In battle, your stamina consumption will be reduced by 10%.
..
[ you have killed 1 water ghost (elite) ]
[ you have gained 45 XP. ]
[obtaining the reward of the ‘kill order’. ..]
[reward of the ‘kill order’ failed to be obtained]
..
Considering that it was an elite monster, and the kill order and mark of sin could not be stacked, Roger chose the former.
But the harvest was not ideal.
However, Roger didn’t have time to think about it.
The other two water ghosts came over.
Roger grabbed Red Moon and quickly rushed to his wooden house.
With a light tap of his toes, he jumped up the wall again.
The night wind blew.
It carried a strong stench.
Roger looked up.
In the vision of his aura observation skill, the blood-red Cloud slowly moved over.
The Riverside under the moonlight.
One by one, wet shadows slowly climbed up the shore and silently approached.
Roger was a little thicker, but there were at least twenty of them!
“That’s a little exaggerated!”
He quickly took the purple jade from his back and weighed the quiver in his hand, making sure that there were enough white-feathered arrows smeared with holy water.
“Fortunately, I’ve made sufficient battle preparations.”
The next second, he drew his bow and shot an arrow at the wall!
The sharp arrow pierced through his heart.
The water ghost next to the kitchen died silently.
..
[ you have killed 1 water ghost ]
[you have gained 30 XP.]
[your liver’s metabolic capacity has been slightly improved.]
..
The attributes given by the water ghost were average.
At least, it wasn’t that ridiculous.
“But what does the liver’s metabolic capacity look like?”
Roger was suddenly a little curious.
At this moment, a few more lines of information appeared on the interface.
..
[ you have killed more than 100 monsters. You have acquired a new milestone-monster expert. ]
[ you have received 1 milestone point. ]
[ monster expert: you have sufficient experience in dealing with monsters, whether it is hunting, cooking, or other aspects. ]
[ corresponding title: Demon Hunter (you can smell the odor of monsters) ]
..
This title … It’s just average.”
Roger hesitated for a moment and didn’t choose to exchange for it.
In the face of monsters, the sense of smell provided by demon hunters might be more sensitive than that of aura observation.
However, he still wanted to save up his milestone points to purchase the [ stupid bird flies first voucher ].
While he was thinking.
More and more water ghosts were gathering outside the wall.
Roger didn’t dare to be slow and started to jog on the wall.
When he was a certain distance away, he pulled the bow again and aimed at the hearts of the water ghosts, killing the monsters in a fixed spot!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The White-feathered arrow was shot out quickly.
With the cover of the wall, Roger and the water ghosts started guerilla warfare.
His movements were light, and he ran back and forth on the wall, creating a certain amount of space.
As time went by, his hit rate also slowly increased.
He shot out all four bundles of arrows in one go.
A faint white light appeared on the horizon.
Outside the wall, only a few water ghosts were still roaring.
The water ghosts that were killed turned into a pool of mud, and the strong stench gradually disappeared in the wind.
Roger let out a deep breath.
Then, he jumped off the wall and killed the rest of the monsters.
..
That night.
More than 40 water ghosts had died in Roger’s hands.
This was a terrifying number.
According to Smith, the former owner of the farm, he had only killed two water ghosts in his life.
Although there were water ghosts in the sela River Basin, such a large-scale invasion was absolutely against common sense!
Roger’s first reaction was that Smith had done something to the farm.
So the next morning.
He used his aura observation to search the farm from top to bottom.
In the end, they found nothing.
At noon.
A patrolling soldier on a horse rushed to the farm.
It was a pretty young man. After taking off his helmet, there were bloodstains on his face.
..
“Mr. Roger.”
last night, there was a riot of water ghosts in the nearby farms. I’m happy to see you safe and sound.
The patrol looked at Roger, who was still cleaning the house, in surprise. He introduced himself, ”
“I’m Li Wei, and this area is under my jurisdiction. I live on the flowing farm two kilometers to the East. If you need anything, you can find me there.”
Roger nodded slightly.
Last night, many farms were invaded by water ghosts? “he asked.
Li Wei’s expression was a little sad.
“It’s almost all the farms.”
Especially Tiger farm … Sigh.”
“Do you know Saul and varian? They were all very good young people. A few days ago, Saul successfully proposed to varian, and they even invited me to their wedding …”
At this point, he was silent for a while before continuing, ”
We found their bodies near Tiger farm’s granary.
Roger wiped the table without a word.
The rag in his hand became a little heavy.
..
