"Hmm?"
Fangzheng was stunned when he felt the vibration of the dagger in his hand. He could feel some kind of will coming from the dagger in his hand. Although he was not very clear, Fangzheng could still understand the meaning of the dagger.
"You can upgrade it?"
The dagger vibrated for a moment, then stopped. It was equivalent to a nod.
"Can I upgrade it now?"
The dagger vibrated twice, then became silent.
"No? Do you need something … Ah, I know …. "
Only then did Fangzheng remember that the recasting of the two swords was completed by the Fireproof Woman in the Firelink Sacrificial Grounds while he was asleep. This meant that if he wanted to modify the two weapons, he would have to go back to his sleep and look for the Fireproof Woman?
In that case, he might as well wait a little longer.
At present, Fangzheng did not have the time. After all, the big chin was still wandering around in front of him.
The further they went, the more Fangzheng found that this place was like a chaotic battlefield. Killing and fighting could be seen everywhere. Hunters slaughtered werewolves, monsters slaughtered hunters, and villagers slaughtered monsters. The sewers, the streets, everywhere was full of corpses. Those who had their skins peeled off did not seem to have died at all. They were moaning in pain. When Fangzheng and the big chin got closer, they could see those who had their skins peeled off, leaving only their bones and internal organs, stretching out their hands towards them as if begging them to end their pain.
Was this the nightmare of the hunters?
Looking at the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood in front of him, Fangzheng was silent. He did not know what happened here, but Fangzheng suspected that the "operation" Dr. Youssefka mentioned was probably related to this. According to Dr. Youssefka, the Church of Healing had undergone considerable changes after a certain operation, and many hunters had disappeared almost overnight. Judging from the current situation, the disappearance of these hunters was very likely related to this.
But … what did these hunters do?
From what Fangzheng could see, it was obvious that they had carried out a massacre. But this was strange, because from what Fangzheng saw, this Yanan's situation was worse than the Yanan he was in before. If the Church of Healing had really done such a thing, the people of Yanan would definitely know about it. Putting aside the little girl, Madam Sophie should know something about it. However, when Fangzheng recalled the old man's previous words, he did not mention anything similar.
However, this was only a nightmare after all. The scene inside might not necessarily correspond to reality.
At the same time, Fangzheng and the big chin also waded through the bloody sewage and crossed the underground river, arriving at a spacious place inside. It looked like an abandoned junkyard. Corpses covered in blood were strewn all over the place on both sides.
"Ah …"
Just as Fangzheng and the big chin walked in, a thin man covered in blood struggled to get up from the pile of corpses not far away from them. He reached out to them in despair.
"Ah … please, please help us …"
He said with a trembling voice as he turned his head to look behind him.
"That ugly beast …. Great fear shrouds us …."
"Thud …!!"
As if to complement his words, a series of heavy footsteps came from the front of the two of them. When the man heard the footsteps, he curled up into a ball, trembling uncontrollably.
"Ah … He's here! Listen! The cursed Ludwig is here! Spare us! Spare us! "
Accompanied by the wailing, a huge monster soon appeared in front of Fangzheng and the big chin. It had a huge body and looked like the product of a man and a horse fusing together. It had two necks, one of which had half a human face and half a horse face fused together. The other neck seemed to have been cut by something, leaving only a huge hole. But in that hole, there were countless densely packed eyeballs in it, rolling along with the monster's movements.
The monster's two hands became as long as a beast's, and it was supported by four horse legs. On both sides of its body, two human legs could be vaguely seen. And on its back, there seemed to be a big sword?
"What a personality this horse-face has …."
Looking at the monster in front of him, Fangzheng couldn't help but be stunned. He had seen disgusting things before, but he had never seen one as disgusting as this. Fangzheng really wanted to see who created this dream. Your aesthetic standards are too anti-human!
"— — —!!"
But the monster obviously wouldn't be polite to Fangzheng. It let out a roar that sounded like a horse's neigh, then rushed toward Fangzheng and the big chin like a war horse!
"This isn't going to be easy. We have to observe it carefully!"
At this moment, the big chin seemed to have realized that something was wrong. He screamed, then hurriedly rolled on the ground, and dodged the monster's charge from the left and right with Fangzheng. After missing its attack, the monster turned around hurriedly, raised its head, looked at Fangzheng, and clawed at him.
What the heck, why did it grab me instead of him? Is it because I'm more handsome than him? You're discriminating against me because of my looks!
Looking at the horse-faced monster pouncing on him, Fangzheng cursed in his heart. It wasn't his fault that he was handsome. He was born this way, and he didn't want it to be so. If it was possible, Fangzheng also wished to blend into the crowd and not have such outstanding looks. What's the advantage of being handsome? He was surrounded by girls since he was a child. Girls would confess to him every now and then, and boys would pick a fight with him because the girl he loved had taken a fancy to him … Sigh, it was all an unexpected disaster!
From this, it could be seen that the horse-faced monster was probably ugly and short when it was a human. Otherwise, why would it attack him?
It must be jealousy!
It's not my fault that I'm handsome!
Fangzheng cursed inwardly, but his hands did not stop moving. He stared intently at the horse-faced monster in front of him, and when it pounced at him, he rolled to the side again. The horse-faced monster's right claw brushed past Fangzheng's hair and swept across his head, hitting the ground on the other side. It even produced a series of sparks on the hard ground.
How could it be so hostile to a handsome guy? It must be ugly.
Fangzheng leaped up. At the same time, he swung the sword in his right hand and slashed at the horse-faced monster's right foreleg. This caused the horse-faced monster to stagger and stop. Fangzheng got up and spun around. The greatsword in his hand whistled out again and stabbed the horse-faced monster's side abdomen.
"Bang!!"
The sharp greatsword could not penetrate the horse-faced monster's equally hard body, but the blow caused the horse-faced monster to howl in pain and fall to the ground.
At that moment, Fangzheng suddenly saw the man with the big chin sneaking up behind the horse-faced monster. He raised his right hand … .What the hell, big brother, are you serious?!
"Butt cleaning!"
Under Fangzheng's gaze, the man with the big chin shouted and stretched out his right hand. Then, Fangzheng saw the man's right hand go straight into the horse-faced monster's butt! It went all the way to the elbow!!
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fangzheng was dumbfounded!
"— — — —!!"
The horse-faced monster cried out in pain after being hit by the man with the big chin. He suddenly turned around and pounced on the man with the big chin!
"Wow, this guy's counterattack is so fierce. I can't hold on any longer!"
Facing the horse-faced monster's crazy counterattack, the man with the big chin seemed to be in a difficult position. He kept dodging the horse-faced monster's attacks, but was still sent flying by the horse-faced monster's claws. The man with the big chin reacted quickly. The moment he landed on the ground, he immediately rolled to his feet, took out a health potion from his waist, and drank it. Then, he rolled again and dodged another charge from the Horse-Faced Monster.
"Hey, undead party, help me! I'm going to die! "
You're really good at drawing aggro.
Looking at the horse-faced monster chasing after the man with the big chin, Fangzheng sighed. He was thinking of letting the man with the big chin lure the horse-faced monster here while he slipped away. But when he thought about how the horse-faced monster had helped him learn a new counterattack skill, he felt that it was important to be grateful.
So, Fangzheng stared at the monster in front of him and gripped the greatsword in his hand tightly. Soon, the pitch-black blade began to turn red again, and burning flames appeared on the blade.
Just as the horse-faced monster leaped high and landed in an attempt to crush the big chin, Fangzheng roared angrily and suddenly jumped up. The sword in his right hand drew a perfect arc in the air and struck the horse-faced monster's body heavily, sending it flying.
"Boom!!"
With a loud bang, the horse-faced monster hit the wall not far away and fell to the ground. At the same time, the greatsword on its back fell out and stabbed into the ground beside the horse-faced monster.
It was a very beautiful greatsword. It was transparent and shone with a soft glow like the dark moon. One could even see spots of light on the blade.
"Ah …"
Under the illumination of the moonlight, the horse-faced monster seemed to awaken. It opened its eyes and slowly looked at the greatsword beside it with a hint of nostalgia in its eyes.
"Ah … So you've always been with me … My true teacher, the moonlight that guides me …"
As it spoke, the Horse-Faced Monster slowly climbed up. This time, it no longer looked like a beast, but a real human.
Then, the horse-faced monster reached out and grabbed the shining greatsword. It raised it in front of itself and looked at Fangzheng.
