Hunter was a general term, but in Caldera, it referred to people who hunted Hybrid Demons. According to Heilig, the World's Edge was a place of destruction and desolation. Terrifying creatures were born there. They did not belong to this world. They would destroy the original order of the world and threaten all living things. All living things were food to them.
Therefore, for the safety of their homeland, the races living in Caldera united and formed an alliance to fight against the Hybrid Demons. This was the origin of the Hunter.
"Can't you destroy them completely? Won't there be no future trouble? "
After listening to Heilig's explanation, Reina asked in confusion.
Heilig shook his head and said, "In history, our ancestors had organized three large-scale extermination operations, but in the end, they all ended in failure. They came to the conclusion that these Hybrid Demons could not be killed. You just saw the black thing floating out of the Distorted Demon's corpse. That is their soul. They will return to the Heart of Distortion and soon come back to this world. "
The black thing was the thick smoke?
Reina thought for a moment.
"Can't we use something to contain that thing and then find a way to destroy it?"
"No, we have tried all the methods we can think of. Even if their soul cannot be seen with the naked eye, it will still exist. That black smoke is just a little bit of residual magic." Heilig said patiently.
The two walked in the grassland. The furry creature walked in front. The place where it walked would lower the grass, forming a path. The two walked on this path. Chestnut could keenly sense holes in the ground, and its fur could prevent it from falling into a hole, so it was very suitable for exploring.
At this point, Reina was still puzzled by the existence of this so-called Hybrid Demon. For example, the Distorted Demon just now did not look like an ordinary creature. Reina had never seen such a disgusting monster. It was like someone's bad taste. Its body exuded a strange power. This power made Reina's hair stand on end. Therefore, Reina discovered its existence before it entered the range of Reina's spatial perception.
"That is why I hope that when you reach World's Edge, you will dispel that thought and leave obediently."
Hailig spoke his mind, but Lina didn't say anything. If it was really that dangerous, then Lina might not leave, but if there was nothing ahead, then she would definitely leave obediently.
Originally, Reina thought that there would be a river in front of the grassland, or a mountain with a white hat. However, she realized that things were not that simple.
It was a basin, perhaps, but it was so deep that the bottom could not be seen. The fog covered the bottom like clouds. It was at least a few hundred meters deep. Reina could feel the wind blowing from below. She somewhat understood why this place was called the World's Edge.
As far as the eye could see, this place seemed to be the edge of the world. On the left and right were endless cliffs, and in front of them were endless clouds and mist. She couldn't see the distant mountains. If this was a pit, then this pit must be incomparably huge. Reina couldn't compare how huge it was. She could only compare it to the sea.
It was an endless pit like the sea. Reina, who was not afraid of heights, felt her legs go soft. She was afraid that she would fall. Although she could fly, this was a fear that was engraved in her bones.
"Those monsters are just below World's Edge. We are now standing on the third floor. Below us is the second floor. If you walk further in, you will reach the first floor. That is where the Hybrid Demons are born. However, not many people can reach there alive, and even fewer can return with their minds intact." The Hunter said.
"Then they climb out?" Reina was in disbelief.
"Yes, not all of them. Some can fly, some can't get out in their lifetime, and some are brought up by the air currents. The strong wind here can blow people away. Be careful. However, if you are asking about the Distorted Demon, it crawled up. "
Heilig replied.
"Crawled up? What's going on? "
"Do you see the holes in the grassland? They are dug up from below. Some Hybrid Demons can climb up through these tunnels. This is why we hunters hunt here."
Heilig looked at Reina and said, "There are a group of hungry Hybrid Demons below. If you go down blindly, you will be torn to pieces. So, hurry up and leave. This is not a place you should be …"
"I have decided! I want to go down and take a look! "However, Reina said excitedly.
"Eh?! You, do you really want to die? "
Heilig frowned. Chestnut barked as if he agreed with his master.
"No, I don't want to die yet."
"Then why are you … Oh, is it to train? Seriously, I don't know what you are thinking. Training is the stupidest excuse."
"I want to become stronger. No matter what method I use, as long as I can become stronger."
Reina suddenly frowned. She looked at the abyss with a sad expression.
At that moment, Heilig seemed to understand something.
"Idiot! Even so, you can't act recklessly! Let's go! "
Heilig suddenly scolded.
Reina was stunned. Heilig walked a few steps and turned back to look at her, saying, "Don't you want to become stronger? Then follow me. I will teach you how to hunt. "
Hearing this, although she didn't know whether the demon was telling the truth or not, Linnai still decided to follow the demon and take a look.
Heilig brought Reina back to the grassland.
"In this grassland, there may be seventeen types of Hybrid Demons. However, the most common ones are the Distorted Demons. The most important thing is the sky. Don't forget to look up at the sky."
As he spoke, he brought Reina to hunt. He walked to a slightly higher hill and took out a strange crystal.
"Why did you cover your eyes before?"
"To train my spatial perception and learn magic."
Reina replied directly.
"Well, although I want to call you an idiot, your skills make me speechless. But even so, it may cost you your life. Remember, the eyes are the organ that senses the furthest. You must make good use of it."
With that, Heilig handed the strange transparent crystal to Reina and pointed to the flat ground in the distance.
"Look through the stone there."
Reina did as she was told. She closed her left eye and looked through the transparent stone. She found that the scenery in the distance seemed to be right in front of her eyes. She moved the stone away and did not move.
"How magical!"
"Shh! Don't shout. Tell me what you see. "
"Stone, grass."
"Hmph, that's not what I meant. Did you find anything unusual?"
"No."
Reina's answer was very simple.
The demon sighed.
"There are at least three Distorted Demons there."
"What? Where? "
Reina opened her eyes wide, but she could not see any shadows.
This place was about seven to eight hundred meters away from the plain. There was nothing there.
"This is what you have to do. Find them and observe the surrounding situation …"
The hunter said as he found a stone to sit on.
"Use your eyes well. This is the first lesson for hunters."
