Chapter 7 I still like your unruly look!
Richard looked at the three strong men and the other two. Among these people, the three strong men were ordinary people who had been trained, the old man had some energy in his body, and the witch next to him also had something.
Henry led everyone out of the villa and came to another room, then said, "Tell me what tools you need now, and I will send someone to prepare them."
"Mr. Henry, can you let us see those bodies?" the witch suddenly said.
Henry looked at her seriously, then said, "Okay, come with me."
Soon everyone came to the morgue of a hospital, which was also built by Smith. In the morgue, everyone saw several broken bodies.
The bodies all had huge scratches and bite marks, and their internal organs had been eaten. There were also some damaged firearms, one of which was a shotgun that was completely bent.
"These are all caused by those beasts."
"Beasts don't have that much strength." The old man looked at the damaged shotgun with a serious expression. There were several deep scratches on the bent barrel.
Henry shrugged and said, "This is exactly why the boss came to you. Otherwise, do you think that three hundred thousand dollars is so easy to earn?"
"We sent out a large number of people to deal with these beasts. You were not the first group, but without exception, they all failed."
"I hope you can succeed this time."
"Whatever tools you need, I'll have someone arrange them as soon as possible."
"We need high-powered firearms, grenades, infrared night vision goggles, and rocket launchers would be even better." The burly man reported a bunch of weapons. Obviously, these were the firepower configuration of a military combat team.
Henry nodded and said, "No problem." Then he looked at Richard and the others, "What about you? Do you need anything?"
"I need guns and silver bullets, silver weapons, refined salt, and aconite. If you can help me make some salt bullets," the old man said seriously.
The witch next to her also asked for similar things and some herbs.
It was Richard's turn. Richard thought about it and took the opportunity to ask for some guns and ammunition. He would not miss such a chance to get something for free.
That afternoon, the group prepared and headed to the mining area where the accident occurred. The mining area was in the forest, and there were some abandoned mines nearby, which were said to be left over from the early colonial era. This mining area was very large, and it was said that high-quality gold and copper associated ores were found here, and there were vast forests around it.
Arriving at the edge of the forest, the three strong men were the first to enter with all kinds of guns and equipment, followed by the witch. The last old man, Olson, glanced at Richard and said, "Boy, my name is Olson, and I'm a demon hunter. This is not an ordinary beast incident. You're still young. If you don't want to die, you'd better leave here now."
"Old man, given your attitude today, if you encounter danger here, I will save your life." Richard said with a smile, then walked straight into the forest.
Olsen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and walked into the forest with his equipment.
After entering the forest, Richard discovered that there was a faint mist in the forest. Most of the trees were red pines and white birch trees, but these trees grew in a somewhat twisted manner. The surrounding light was dim, and it was completely different from the outside world. The whole forest looked a little eerie and weird.
The wind blew through the forest, and there was a humming sound. It sounded like many people were crying, and the rustling of leaves was like someone was clapping.
After a brief observation of the surroundings, Richard found that the negative energy in this place was significantly higher than in other places. The trees grew in a strange way, and it was not man-made, but the energy field here was a little weird.
The trees are so lush that you can hardly see any sunlight in the entire forest. Although the trees are lush and full of vitality, it gives people a gloomy feeling. Moreover, there is fog all year round. After entering the forest, you can't see clearly within 30 to 50 meters.
Richard closed his eyes for a while to sense the flow of energy around him, and then moved in one direction.
Although he didn't know where those "beasts" were, he could sense the approximate areas with rich energy. Those "beasts" lived here and would naturally seek out areas with rich energy to live in. This was the instinct of living things.
In the quiet forest, there were few birds and insects, so Richard was not in a hurry to look for those "beasts". After seeing the environment here, he realized that those "beasts" were likely to be some extraordinary creatures.
His current strength was damaged, so he couldn't waste time. He should let those people explore the way first. As for the life and death of those people, they were all adults. Since they had embarked on this path, they had to be responsible for their own choices. This was called respecting the fate of others and respecting their choices.
Richard moved slightly and merged directly into the shadows of the trees.
Suddenly, in the quiet forest, there was a burst of fierce gunfire, followed by a series of low roars, and the sound of grenades and rockets exploding continued to ring out, mixed with human screams and roars, and soon all the sounds subsided.
The forest returned to silence again, and a faint shadow flashed by in the shadows of the trees.
When Richard arrived here, the surroundings were in a mess. There were traces of bullets and explosions everywhere. It was obvious that there had been a fierce battle here just now.
There were large stains of blood and torn pieces of cloth on the ground. They were the three retired soldiers from the Lighthouse Country. It was obvious that they were in great danger.
Richard scanned the area quickly and found a lot of scratches and other bloodstains on the ground and trees, as well as a large number of bullet casings, and even bloody bullets scattered in some places.
"System, scan the surrounding traces."
"Scan completed." The next second, a voice sounded in my mind.
"There are at least six 'beasts'. They are at least three meters tall, can walk upright, weigh between 380 and 450 kilograms, have a strength of at least 1.3 tons, are agile, and have extremely high defense against firearms, but can still cause damage."
Richard was not surprised that the defense against firearms was very high, because most extraordinary creatures had high resistance to physical damage, or recovery capabilities.
Take vampires for example. Without the corresponding tools - silver, sunlight, etc., it is almost impossible for ordinary people to kill them.
Although the three men brought many weapons, they had no tools to deal with them. They were just eating cakes when facing the extraordinary creatures, and they were not even injured.
Richard followed the traces left by those 'beasts'. Those 'beasts' moved very quickly and did not cover themselves along the way. There were many bloodstains on the ground. At this moment, there was a sudden explosion and angry roar not far away, followed by a burst of intensive gunfire.
Before Richard could rush over, the sound of trees breaking was heard, and then he saw Olsen, who was in a mess, running quickly not far away, and behind him, several agile figures were chasing him.
Suddenly, one of the black shadows suddenly leaped up, took advantage of the force of the tree fork, and pounced on the old man. The old man was about to be beheaded, but the old man seemed to have eyes on his back and rolled over to avoid the attack in a thrilling way.
The shadow was a gray werewolf that was over 2.5 meters tall. The gray werewolf missed its target and slid forward. But at this moment, the ground beneath its feet collapsed instantly. There was a deep pit under the leaves.
A painful roar sounded, and the werewolf was directly pierced by a large number of silver spikes in the deep pit. Even large-caliber firearms could not kill the werewolf, and faced with the silver spikes, it was like it had met its nemesis, wailing and screaming. More than a dozen silver spikes pierced into the werewolf's body, and one pierced through his chest.
The werewolf's wound quickly turned black, and made a sizzling sound. Its powerful recovery ability failed, and the silver thorn also quickly turned black. In the blink of an eye, the werewolf was completely dead.
Seeing their companions dead, the remaining werewolves became even more angry and rushed forward. Olsen raised his hand and fired a few shots with his shotgun. The concentrated werewolves howled in pain. It was obvious that his gun also used silver bullets.
Although the silver bullets are very powerful against werewolves, there are only a limited number of bullets. What's more, these werewolves are very smart and keep using the dense trees around them to hide.
Moreover, werewolves are much more agile than humans, and ordinary people will be killed before they have time to react. Even well-trained soldiers are powerless against werewolves in a complex environment like the forest, which is why the three people were easily killed.
Olsen obviously knew this, so he chose a shotgun, and his physical fitness was far superior to that of ordinary people, and he was also very experienced. But even though Olsen reacted quickly, he was forced into a desperate situation step by step.
The shotgun surprisingly hit a werewolf and injured it, but the silver in the shotgun was obviously not enough to kill the werewolf, not to mention that it did not hit the vital parts, which could only make the werewolf scream in pain, followed by anger.
Olsen was even more desperate. He never thought that there were not just one or two werewolves in the forest, but a whole werewolf clan. The equipment and traps he prepared could only deal with two or three werewolves. Although the shotgun was useful, the bullets would eventually run out.
Even if he tried to save bullets, he could only keep shooting to force the werewolf back in the face of the werewolf's relentless advance. In a blink of an eye, his bullets were exhausted. Without the silver bullet threat, the werewolf didn't give him a chance to change bullets and pounced on him directly.
"Rainbow Jet!"
A colorful ball of light instantly appeared in the field, and then turned into countless colorful rays of light and shot out. These colorful lights changed infinitely, and one glance at them made one feel dizzy.
The werewolves became even more shaky and almost fainted.
Effects such as coma, shock, dizziness, and blindness occur in an instant.
"Control spells are as useful as always." Richard said with a smile, and then several arcane missiles flew out instantly, accurately hitting the werewolves' heads. Those heads as hard as steel broke into pieces like halves of watermelons. The recovery ability that they were proud of had no effect in the face of spells.
"Old man, are you dead?"
"Ahem, I'm not dead." Olsen felt dizzy and nauseous. He tried to get up with a grimace, but found that his body was out of control. He struggled several times before he could barely stand up.
Even werewolves couldn't withstand these spells, let alone humans. Although he was not the main target of the spells, just being affected a little made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Are you a wizard?" After a while, Olsen finally recovered and looked at Richard in surprise and doubt.
"Yes." Richard said without raising his head. He was collecting materials from the werewolf.
The werewolf's claws and teeth are sharp and strong, and can be made into daggers and arrows, which are also poisonous. However, these are of no use to him. Richard is extracting the werewolf's blood.
As he cast the spell, the werewolf's sturdy body shrank quickly, and in just a moment it turned into a mummy, and a red crystal ball the size of a fruit core appeared in Richard's hand.
"No wonder you dare to accept such a commission. It seems that I was too nosy." Olsen smiled awkwardly. After seeing Richard's actions, his eyes became more vigilant and fearful: "Thank you for saving me."
"Old man, I still like your unruly look! Get back on track!"
Olsen:
"Old man, are you an exorcist?" Richard asked after he finished extracting the werewolf's blood.
"Yes."
"Let me ask you a few questions."
"Ask me, I'll tell you everything I know."
"Are there many exorcists in your profession?"
"not much."
“Are you in touch?”
"Yes, there is a website that shares some monster information, and sometimes there are some commissions." Olsen told him about a website.
After some understanding, Richard also learned that the Beacon Country also has an agency to deal with extraordinary events. Yes, it is the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Agency, abbreviated as SHIELD.
It’s just that SHIELD doesn’t have many people, and it doesn’t handle things under the name of SHIELD, but often acts under the name of the FBI.
Some exorcists work in pairs or in pairs, while others are lone rangers. In the past, the church was the most powerful and main exorcist group, but in the past two or three hundred years, the church's strength has shrunk dramatically, and more than ninety-nine percent of priests are ordinary people.
Church personnel who are truly capable of performing exorcisms almost no longer perform this type of exorcism. Instead, they sell some exorcism items such as holy water, appearing to be very low-key.
It is said that there is a problem within the Vatican and their God has not responded for a long time.
After getting a lot of information, Richard and Olsen continued to move forward. This time, they did not finish the work. Olsen originally thought that there were only a few werewolves here, but after fighting, he found that there was at least a werewolf tribe here.
Moreover, the werewolves here are not the evolved ones, the ones with reason and the ability to transform between humans and werewolves, but the primitive ones. The primitive werewolves are extremely smart, almost as smart as humans, but their temperament is closer to that of wild beasts.
They are also stronger than evolved werewolves, more bloodthirsty and brutal, and also contagious and extremely vengeful.
Olsen had ambushed six werewolves before, and he killed two of them with his tricks. He killed one with the help of a trap when he escaped, and the rest was killed by Richard.
The two followed the traces left by the werewolves and headed towards the werewolf tribe.
