Chapter 603: Draw a Bad Lot

2023-06-01

It was a dark figure.

Saying it is pitch black is not because you are standing in the dark, that is just an adjective.

Its skin was as black as ink, dry and dull, and it was so thin that only its torso barely retained its human form.

The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the two pairs of sharp fangs growing in its mouth, like those of a wild beast. Some red tender meat can be seen between the teeth.

That's definitely not human.

At best, it can only be described as a monster in human form!

"Roar!"

The monster stared at the girl, bloodthirsty desire appearing in its shriveled eyes.

It roared, lowered its body, and pounced on the girl tiger at a speed beyond human speed!

My mind goes blank.

Such a scene was totally unexpected. Fear filled her heart and the girl had almost no reaction.

"boom!"

I just felt a flash before my eyes and a pain on my face.

The girl had already been pinned against the living room wall by the monster's shriveled claws, pinching her mouth and nose.

The oxygen passage was blocked, and the girl waved her wrists in fear and kicked her short legs, trying to break free from the monster.

But the monster's strength was much greater than she had imagined. Its palms were as hard as iron clamps. No matter how she hit and struggled, she couldn't make it budge at all.

"Roar!"

The monster roared with delight.

The prey is right in front of you, and its white neck is like fine wine.

The monster opened its mouth impatiently, the bloody smell from its mouth filled her nose, and its sharp fangs pierced into the girl's eyes, making her open her eyes wide in horror.

The monster's silhouette was reflected in her eyes, rapidly approaching her neck.

"Click!"

At this moment, a crisp sound suddenly reached the ears of both of them.

Suddenly, a breeze blew, and a figure appeared in the living room under the moon like a ghost.

"Buzz!"

Amidst the buzzing sound that shook the air, a bright silver blade flashed by.

It was so fast as a flash of light that the human eye could not catch the movement.

No chance to react.

The girl suddenly fell to the ground, and the arm that was clamping her mouth and nose was broken at the elbow.

The monster screamed and retreated.

Under the moonlight night.

The girl fell into the corner and looked up at the boy who saved her.

The young man held a silver-white long knife in his hand and glanced at her.

"Elizabeth?"

Jiang Li looked at the girl on the ground with some surprise.

Seeing the pool of solidified blood and the broken limbs beside him, he basically guessed the whole story.

The house was invaded, and then the family members were killed and eaten by the pawns.

"Roar!"

There was a roar from the side.

The monster lowered its body, and a scowl of anger appeared on its face, which was as dry as rotten wood.

But within that roar, there was a hint of fear.

Its right arm was broken at the elbow, and it hadn't even been able to react to the previous attack.

"It seems I drew a bad lot."

Jiang Li turned around and looked at the dark humanoid monster.

"Not even a Dead Apostle, just a dead being. Fueled only by blood and instinct, they are worthless."

The words fell.

A flash of knife light passed before his eyes like shimmering water.

The monster's roar stopped abruptly.

There was a thud, and the monster's head fell off its neck and hit the ground, bouncing a few times with great elasticity.

“Huh!?”

Elizabeth screamed unconsciously.

Jiang Li ignored her screams and took out a crystal bottle from his waist bag. It contained an oily yellow viscous liquid. After opening the cork, a pungent smell of kerosene immediately came out.

He tilted the bottle and poured out a drop of kerosene, which dripped onto the monster.

The corpse suddenly burned without any fire. The dark blue flames covered the monster's entire body in the blink of an eye, and burned it to ashes in a few seconds, leaving only a handful of black smoke scattered on the spot.

This is a magic tool I bought from Youzhu, specifically for use against Dead Apostles.

The dead apostles have very strong vitality. Even if their limbs or even heads are cut off, they can still be alive and kicking as long as they have blood replenishment. Therefore, Jiang Li asked Youzhu to make this prop, which is very useful for dealing with the bodies of the dead apostles.

Because it was a specially made prop, the price was not low, but he didn't feel bad at all because Nero was paying for it anyway.

Jiang Li used the same trick again and burned the monster's head and right arm into ashes.

People who died in the first stage like this usually have no ability to recover. Jiang Li did this just to be on the safe side. After all, he has money and can afford it.

After finishing the cleanup work, Jiang Li walked towards the gate of the villa.

"Wait a moment!"

But the voice behind him stopped him in his tracks.

"What the hell is going on? You were on the student council that day, right? What's going on with this monster? What happened to my dad and mom?"

Elizabeth caught up with him from behind, her face full of annoyance, and bombarded him with questions.

"Well, defeating the Dead Apostles is what I wanted, but I hate this kind of work!"

Jiang Li let out a long sigh.

He looked at the electric pole outside the villa, where a pitch-black gray starling was standing, its obsidian eyes staring at him.

Jiang Li raised his hand and made a few gestures to it. The starling nodded, then flapped its wings and flew into the night sky.

"Someone will come to answer your questions later. I'm leaving now."

Jiang Li replied briefly without answering half of her question, then raised his foot and tried to leave.

"no!"

But Elizabeth immediately rushed over and hugged his lower back.

"Let go! I have work to do!"

"No! You haven't answered my question yet!"

"Didn't I say someone would come and clear up your confusion later?"

"T-Then I'm scared! What if another monster appears while you're gone?"

"There are no other monsters around here, you can rest assured!"

"No, I'm scared!"

Elizabeth hugged his lower back tightly, with a stubborn attitude that she would never let you go.

A few minutes ago, she was thinking that she didn't want to meet this guy who sang so badly, but a few minutes later, she felt that she couldn't live without this guy.

"Stop being so willful!"

Jiang Li twitched the corner of his mouth and hit her on the forehead with his elbow.

"When you stopped me, other monsters were still wandering around the city. If this delayed the rescue of people, would you be able to bear the consequences?"

"it hurts!"

Elizabeth subconsciously let him go, holding her head and crying out in pain.

Jiang Li took the opportunity to leave the villa and quickly disappeared into the night.

By the time she came to her senses, he had already disappeared.

The most reliable person disappeared. Elizabeth was terrified and curled up in the corner of the villa, shrinking her neck in fear, looking like an ostrich.

That guy said someone would come over soon, so that should be someone I can rely on, right?

After waiting for half an hour with this thought in mind, when Elizabeth was about to escape from the house, a figure appeared at the door.

She was a woman dressed in nun's clothes. Although she was young, she looked very gentle and had a broad-minded smile on her face.

Seeing such a gentle woman, Elizabeth subconsciously relaxed her guard.

After a while, Elizabeth followed the nun out of the house.

…………

Within three hours, Jiang Li killed a total of five monsters, and most of the time was spent on the road.

Fortunately, they managed to kill all the pawns they found before dawn.

Around twelve o'clock at night, Jiang Li returned to the Jiuyuan Temple residence.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Youzhu stood at the entrance and gestured for them to enter the living room.

"The tea is ready."

"Thanks."

Jiang Li nodded in thanks.

Not long after, Qingzi also came back from outside.

"Really? As usual, there are only first-stage dead and second-stage ghouls. I can't even find a third-stage undead!"

Qingzi took off her coat, revealing her good figure wrapped in a sweater, then sat down on the sofa in the living room, picked up the black tea brewed by Youzhu and drank it all in one gulp.

"If we can find an undead being we can talk to, maybe we can follow the clues to find the 'city lord's' location, or at least find more clues!"

Aoko looked very unhappy.

"waste."

Youzhu glanced at Qingzi's teacup and shook his head coldly.

"I'm just thirsty, Youzhu, please pour me another glass!"

"With the way you're drinking, you might as well just drink cold water."
