It seemed like the demon hunters were really gone.
Hao Ren found nothing at Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi's workplace. While he did not see them, he was almost certain that the mass evacuation of the demon hunters was real. He led Rollie back home, and along the way, he kept mumbling to himself. Just half a month ago, the demon hunters were still fine, and a short while ago, he even followed Hasse and the rest to explore the mysterious realm in America. It had only been a short time since then. What happened to the demon hunters?
A powerful race that had completely ended the Mythological Era, a superhuman group that had no natural enemies on Earth. Why did they disappear all of a sudden in just a few days? Did something big happen that sent them away?
"Tsk, we were busy with the ark fleet and completely missed the trail of the demon hunters." Hao Ren smacked his lips and muttered to the MDT in his mind. "Now that they're gone, it's going to be hard to track them down."
"They can't just disappear into thin air. Since it was a mass evacuation, they should have left some traces," the MDT said in Hao Ren's mind. "I suggest we release some energy-detecting probes. The demon hunters must have left an energy field of Letta runes, and we can roughly determine their route."
"Hmm, that's all we can do for now. Anyway, I don't want to use this matter on Earth to ask Raven for help … Who knows what she'll do. "
As Hao Ren discussed with the MDT in his mind, he walked with Rollie through the old streets of the Southern Suburbs with his hands behind his back. He had originally driven out, but when he came back, he put the car away. Thinking while walking, he felt that he could concentrate better. Although this kind of thinking habit was not worth popularizing, he was considered a superman now. Rollie, on the other hand, followed behind Hao Ren. The cat maiden was a little listless. While Hao Ren had bought her two skewers of grilled fish in the city, the cat maiden still regretted following him out. She began to miss her warm sofa cushion …
The Southern Suburbs was remote and sparsely populated. Even the temperature here was much lower than in the city. The snow on the roads in the city had almost melted, but the old streets and alleys in the southern suburbs were still covered in snow that creaked as one walked. Hao Ren walked forward in the snow and looked back at Rollie to make sure that the cat girl was following him obediently, neither running around nor running on all fours. Hao Ren then lowered his head and continued to think. At the intersection not far from the two of them, a few stray cats were fighting fiercely next to a dumpster. They seemed to be fighting over the ownership of the leftovers.
Rollie's attention was involuntarily attracted by the noise of the stray cats. She looked up and stared blankly. The shadows of the dumpster and the stray cats were reflected in her eyes, slowly overlapping with some vague and distant memories. She seemed to have seen a few years ago, when she was still a little black and white wild cat. At that time, she also relied on such a trash can to survive. In the winter, she fought with those strong and hungry stray cats and dogs, fighting for a little bit of leftovers to fill her stomach. Every snowy winter night, she squatted on the geothermal manhole cover to keep warm, and she spent her days like that.
Although she did not have such complicated thoughts as "life is hard" at that time, cold and hunger still shrouded her life as a cat. That was almost the only memory she had of the season of "winter".
Until later, a strange big cat suddenly appeared in front of her and handed her a string of strange-tasting dried fish. That was the end of her winter.
While Hao Ren was thinking about world peace, the most important thing in Rollie's mind was that she was not hungry and not cold. She looked at the stray cats for a while, then suddenly turned her head and rubbed her head against Hao Ren's arm. Her throat kept purring, "Purr … Purr …"
Hao Ren was startled by the cat girl's sudden neurotic behavior, and his train of thought was suddenly interrupted. "Hey, hey, what are you doing …"
Rollie rubbed her head for a long time, almost rubbing the soft hat off her head. She then looked up and said, "Big Boss Cat, you are so cute!"
That was the only "compliment" she knew. Although she did not know where she learned it from, she firmly remembered it.
"Are you crazy?" Hao Ren pressed Rollie's head hard and pushed her away. Although he did not mind being rubbed against by the cat girl at home, it was a big problem on the street. More importantly, the silly cat had been walking in the wind all the way, and now she had a runny nose. When she rubbed against his arm, she smeared her mucus and saliva on his arm. Who could stand that? "What are you doing all of a sudden?"
Rollie jumped up and down beside Hao Ren for a long time. She began to wonder if she should lie on the ground and let him scratch her belly. She remembered that Hao Ren had not scratched her belly for a long time, and this made her feel a little defeated. But before she made her move, Hao Ren knew what she was going to do. He quickly grabbed the cat girl by the collar and said, "If you dare lie on the ground, I will cut off a week's supply of dried fish!"
Thanks to the crazy cat girl, Hao Ren's train of thought was interrupted. He patted Rollie on the head and dragged the silly cat back home. "Let's go back and tell Vivian about Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi. See what she has to say."
As he said that, he noticed the dumpster at the corner of the street. He patted Rollie on the head and said, "Don't go through the dumpster …"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a white light suddenly flash in the distant sky, and then a living person appeared out of thin air in the air. The figure was surrounded by broken runes. The runes flickered a few times in the air before dissipating. The owner of the figure fell straight into the huge metal bin with a "plop" sound.
The stray cats around the dumpster immediately scattered.
"Holy sh * t! A living person has fallen from the sky!" Hao Ren was shocked. Two years ago, he would have taken out his phone to take a picture and post it on Weibo. But now, after the baptism of all kinds of supernatural phenomena, his first reaction was, of course, to check on the person.
Hao Ren scurried to the dumpster and poked his head in to take a look. Due to the cold weather, it was difficult for the things in the trash bin to rot, so there was no unbearable smell. When he looked inside, he could only see a girl in black clothes with long silver hair lying inside. Although her face was blocked, her figure looked very familiar.
And that outfit … She was obviously a demon hunter!
Hao Ren quickly bent down and reached out his hand. He put half of his body into the dumpster to pull the silver-haired girl. Rollie saw this and felt a huge impact on her view of cat life. She jumped up and down and shouted, "You said not to go through the dumpster!"
It seemed that Hao Ren would have a hard time educating the dumb cat in the future.
Hao Ren ignored the dumb cat. It took him a lot of effort to pull the girl out of the dumpster. He was stunned. "White Flame?!"
The female demon hunter who descended from the sky was none other than White Flame. No wonder she looked so familiar. But her condition was really shocking: the demon hunter girl's face was pale, her body was cold, and she was bruised. A strange, pale-white luster of "blood" soaked her combat suit. It looked like she was bleeding dry. Hao Ren put his finger under her nose and felt her breathing. He finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, you're still alive. And fortunately, it's a little soft here."
"Big Boss Cat, Big Boss Cat, let me see!" Rollie jumped up and down. When she finally saw White Flame's face, she exclaimed, "Ah! I know her! Was she thrown away too? Did her mother give birth to too many at once? "
"She's not a kitten." Hao Ren carefully picked up White Flame and glanced at the dumb cat. He then made sure that no one had witnessed this supernatural scene. He then called the MDT in his mind. "Teleport back."
At this moment, Lily and Nangong Wuyue were fighting over the TV on the sofa, while Vivian was busy cleaning up the house. Suddenly, a dimensional door opened in the living room, and Hao Ren rushed out from it. Lily was startled and immediately shouted, "Mr. Landlord, you're back? Have you had lunch? There's still some noodles left … Oh, is this White Flame? What happened to her? "
Rollie was even more excited than Hao Ren. "She was picked up from the dumpster like me! She was thrown away too! "
Lily was dumbfounded.
