Phew... Lumian exhaled, restrained his thoughts, put his shotgun on his back, fastened his axe, and walked out of the semi-submerged two-story building standing on the edge of the wilderness, towards the ruins of the dream.
Crossing the wilderness, following the route he had explored several times before, he carefully penetrated into the building complex composed of circles of collapsed houses, approaching the dark red "mountain".
Here the fog is thick in the sky, the ground is not covered with weeds, and the whole world is so dark and gloomy.
Not long after, Lumian broke away from the familiar area and entered the depths of the ruins in a real sense.
He observed the environment along the way, discerning the traces, and kept imagining what things he encountered could come in handy if a battle broke out.
This made him move very slowly.
Prudence and caution are always the first principles of hunting.
Finally, Lumian found new footprints.
They seem to belong to humans, and they are on the edge of the "road", covered by various collapsed buildings, making them very difficult to find.
"I know how to hide myself...it will eliminate traces to a certain extent..." Lumian observed for a while and made a preliminary judgment.
He suspects that this is a guy similar to the shotgun monster, maybe there is a clue of the "Hunter" path Sequence 8.
According to his experience and Aurora's guess, there should be three types of monsters in this ruins: the first type belongs to the type that has received gifts, and does not have extraordinary characteristics. Typical examples are "noodle man" and mouth monsters, and they seem to be All come from the domain controlled by the hidden being named after fate;
The second type has Extraordinary characteristics but has no gift ability. The most typical ones are shotgun monsters, but they should also be suppressed by the black thorn symbol on Lumian's chest, which shows that they may have suffered from the hidden existence pollution, so it becomes a monster;
The third type has neither gift ability nor Extraordinary characteristics. It is like ordinary humans or normal creatures being polluted. The skinless monster that Lumian first encountered was this kind.
As for whether there are monsters with extraordinary characteristics and gifts, both Aurora and Lumian think there should be, but there are no examples to prove it.
So, a monster exhibiting the characteristics of a "hunter" is likely to have Extraordinary properties!
In the process of tracing along the footprints, Lumian even found two traps, which made his guess more and more certain.
If he hadn't been careful enough and was a "hunter" himself, he might have changed from a hunter to a hunting target.
Soon, Lumian found that the footprints became fresh.
This shows that there is a high probability that you will encounter the target if you go forward.
Not in a hurry to say "hello", Lumian made a half-circle and found a good hiding spot.
Then he started dancing.
In the invisible melody, he stepped on sonorous and powerful steps, turning a soft and soothing semicircle, completely recreating the weird and mysterious sacrifice dance of "Noodle Man".
This is not proficient, even a bit rusty, but relying on the ability of "Dancer", Lumian still felt the burning of his chest smoothly.
After unbuttoning and confirming that the black thorn symbol had been highlighted, Lumian climbed to the middle of the collapsed house and entered the chosen hiding place.
He quickly looked into the distance and saw a figure digging a trap there.
It was indeed a "person", but the whole body was scorched black, and there was still a red flame burning on the surface, which never went out.
Could it be the "arsonist"? A big fish has been caught... Lumian is both happy and annoyed.
He was delighted that the main material corresponding to Sequence 8 "Provocateur" appeared, but he was troubled that the prey was much stronger than he expected.
"Pyromancer" is the Sequence 7 of the "Hunter" pathway. According to Aurora, it is a sequence with a qualitative change. It was called "Fire Mage" in ancient times.
Lumian thought to himself that he used the "Hunter", "Dancer", and black thorn symbols to deter the three-in-one strength. As long as he is not negligent, hunting a "Provocateur" monster should be no problem, but facing Sequence 7's " Arsonist," he really wasn't sure.
As long as this monster keeps attacking from a distance, it may not be weakened by the black thorn symbol!
After thinking about it, Lumian decided to retreat first.
He planned to work out an effective plan and set up targeted traps before attempting to deal with the flame monster.
His initial idea was to go home and dance the dance that could summon weird things in the surrounding area, to see what kind of negative impact the remaining spirit upper body of the mouthpart monster would have.
If it's not serious and acceptable, then he can borrow the opponent's ability later, such as "invisibility". solid
As for whether there will be sequelae after being possessed, and whether the wraith is willing to leave after being possessed, Lumian is not too worried.
Anyway, this is in the ruins of the dream, as long as you don't die on the spot, return to reality and take a good rest, everything can be recovered.
Just as Lumian made a move, the flame monster suddenly raised its head and looked towards this side with its scorched face and protruding eyes.
"Not good!" Lumian murmured secretly, ignoring climbing down, and jumped directly from the hiding place to the ground.
Almost at the same time, a huge, crimson fireball hit his original location, blasting bricks and rocks, and blasting layers of flame waves outward.
Lumian could hardly control his body when he hastily evaded the landing, so he could only fall down and roll to dissipate his strength.
If it weren't for the extraordinary flexibility brought by "Dancer", he would have torn muscles and broken ligaments because of this twisting movement.
When Lumian stood up again, the flame monster had already appeared on the top of the collapsed building, and red crows formed by condensed flames protruded one after another around him.
Seeing this scene, Lumian seemed to be surrounded by a group of soldiers, and all he could see were the muzzles of guns.
Without hesitation, instead of fleeing, he ran towards the collapsed building where the flame monster stood.
Faced with such a scene, he felt that the only possibility for him to turn defeat into victory was to use the black thorn symbol on his chest.
And that seems to require getting closer!
Thumb up!
While Lumian was running wildly, half of the fire crow swished and fell from the sky, hitting behind him, causing heat waves to soar, and the explosion reverberated.
The remaining Illusory Firecrows then changed direction and "line of sight" all locked on the running target.
At this moment, Lumian came to the bottom of the collapsed building, and the straight-line distance from the flame monster was no more than five meters.
In the next second, the scorched black monster wrapped in red flames froze completely, and the remaining flame crows around him were instantly extinguished.
It worked! As soon as Lumian's heart was full of joy, the flame monster turned around, went down the collapsed building from the other direction, and ran away.
"Hey, don't run!" Lumian subconsciously shouted.
He walked around the ruins in front of him and chased after the flame monster.
After chasing two buildings, because the monster was so fast, Lumian completely lost its trace.
At this time, the burning sensation in Lumian's chest also disappeared.
He had to stop, catch his breath, and prepare to follow the footprints and watch out for the traps later.
While panting, Lumian glanced over and suddenly froze.
Not far from his side, there was a figure standing at the door of a half-collapsed building.
The figure was wearing a black robe with a hood, and it was no different from a normal human being, except that there were three faces on the only head.
The face on the front belongs to an old man, with cloudy eyes, sparse eyebrows, and a lot of wrinkles: the one on the left is a middle-aged man with deep contours, bright blue eyes, and thick and dark beard;
The one on the right looks like a child less than five years old, with smooth and delicate skin, and innocence and ignorance in the blue eyes.
Three-faced monster! That three-faced monster! Lumian was really scared.
Because he was chasing the flame monster, he obviously went deeper into the ruins, and actually encountered the three-faced monster directly!
After becoming a "dancer" and mastering the mysterious sacrificial dance, which can half-activate the black thorn symbol on his chest, Lumian has no intention of using the three-faced monster as a test target. He intuitively thinks that this guy is very dangerous. According to the mysterious lady In terms of words, it means that the personality may be relatively high, even if it is weakened by the black thorn symbol, it can still easily kill weak "hunters".
Therefore, Lumian's previous plan was to bypass the area where the three-faced monster was located, practice with other monsters, and confirm what effect the half-activated black thorn talisman can play when facing enemies of different strengths.
Then consider whether to hunt the three-faced monster or not to provoke it at all.
Who would have thought that this guy would come out of his "territory" and come here to meet Lumian directly!
This... How about I give you a dance to apologize? Lumian muttered frantically in his heart, while instinctively took a step back.
At the door of the half-collapsed building, the three-faced monster in a black robe and hood also took a step back.
Lumian turned around.
The three-faced monster also turned around.
Lumian ran away.
The three-faced monster also ran away.
Lumian, who originally planned to distance himself and try to dance, ran a few steps, but suddenly felt something was wrong.
He stopped and turned to look at the area where the enemy was, just in time to see the back of the three-faced monster running away.
"..." Lumian froze for a moment.
After a while, he vaguely understood something, raised his hand to touch his face, and whispered to himself: "Am I so scary?"
The performance of the three-faced monster reminded him of the scene when he first met the other party:
At that time, he secretly glanced at the three-faced monster, and retracted his body in fright, praying to the "eternal blazing sun" to protect him from being discovered. Afterwards, the three-faced monster clearly looked at his hiding place, but it seemed that there was nothing there. Noticing it, he took the initiative to distance himself and stood further away.
It turned out that it wasn't the "Eternal Blazing Sun" that blessed me, nor was it because I was very lucky, but the three-faced monster saw or sensed my "specialness" and scared away? Lumian nodded thoughtfully , and then made a guess:
"In the ruins of the dream, monsters with a certain level of personality can directly perceive my specialness'
Don't need me to half-fire the black thorns symbol?
