In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

but……

At this moment, their bodies were neatly divided into three parts!

This……

what is this? !!

The monster suddenly paused.

The flesh and blood quickly repaired itself and it tried to stop its charging body.

But Maria refused to give the other party a chance to regroup.

She took another step forward, turned around, and swung out two more swords.

The incredibly fast attack only drew a thin line in the air.

Many people couldn't even see the white light clearly, and they just saw the monster's body turned into dozens of pieces!

"Ow—"

This time, even the monsters that only knew how to fight began to hesitate.

It began to wonder if it had chosen the wrong opponent...

But seeing Maria preparing to attack again, it also became anxious.

The tentacles above the head gathered again at a rapid speed.

They spun and entangled, and finally turned into a huge drill, suddenly attacking Maria!

Maria was not afraid of these strange inhuman creatures. She just took a few steps back, created some space, and then stared at the tentacles in front of her again.

The biggest difference between these alienated beasts and the enemies ordinary people face is that their attack methods are too strange.

When facing a wolf, people can be aware of its claws and teeth. When facing a snake, people will pay attention to its slender body and terrible venom.

Even the most complex person can roughly guess the source and location of the opponent's attack.

But these alienated monsters are different.

Each of them is a twisted and unique individual, with attacks, claws, and unnatural joint twists, as well as various things that look harmless but are actually deadly...

These are the most difficult places for the alienated monsters to deal with.

Because it is impossible for a normal person to gain experience in dealing with these monsters from dealing with an alienated monster.

Each of them has a different shape, which means that every fight for the hunter is brand new.

Once the hunter's thinking falls into inertia, he will be dead soon.

The most terrifying thing is that no one can maintain a high level of mental concentration all the time... This is the instinct of living things.

As long as they have the opportunity, they will prefer to relax themselves rather than let themselves walk on a tightrope with no end in sight...

But...Maria is different.

As the most legendary hunter in Yharnam, her combat skills are already extraordinary!

She has long been accustomed to facing enemies with various tricky attack methods, and has also long been accustomed to fighting under high pressure.

Facing such an attack from the monster, she showed no emotion, only the purest hunting desire in her eyes.

Move sideways, dodge...

Maria wanted to use this attack to directly cut off all the tentacles of this monster!

But just when the two were about to collide, the tentacles that were twisted into a rope suddenly bloomed!

All the tentacles expanded in an instant and attacked Maria from all directions!

No matter how powerful Maria is, it is impossible for her to avoid being pierced by so many tentacles!

As long as the monster hits the target once, it will have another chance to counterattack!

But... obviously, this twisted mutant creature still greatly underestimated the value of the legendary hunter.

Faced with this sudden attack that enveloped her, Maria did not hesitate at all.

She took a step forward and slashed the tentacles in front of her with a knife.

Without waiting for other attacks to land, the ghostly figure rushed out again.

Pick up the knife, turn around, and swing!

Before the alienated monster could react, Maria was already prepared.

One knife...

Cut it out!

Sulfone——!

The sharp sword energy cut out a piece of purity, Maria's eyes were calm, without any surprise.

The monster was suddenly beheaded!

But in the face of such a fatal injury, there was still no fear on the monster's face. Instead, there was only increasingly terrifying madness and hostility.

With a low roar, its separate head and body actually began to move at the same time!

The tentacles on the head shot out, and the twisted body roared and tried to pounce out.

It's not dead yet!

But Maria seemed unhurried about this.

She silently raised the sharp blade, swung it in a beautiful sword flower, and quietly put it back to her waist.

A little blood flowed on the sharp blade.

"thump……"

The alienated monster fell to the ground...

The head fell to the ground, motionless.

It died...silently.

The bright moon was still hanging high in the sky. Maria reached out and gently adjusted her tricorn hat, then looked around again.

She didn't say anything, but the sharp blades lurking in the shadows already understood what the hunter meant.

They no longer hid, but walked out of the black fog step by step.

"hunter……"

There were four figures in total. They were all wearing military uniforms that were almost the same as the monsters just now, with scary masks on, and their eyes were fixed on Maria.

But unlike their companions who had just been killed by Maria, they had almost no physical alienation.

Maria just glanced at it briefly and then lowered the brim of her hat again.

"Where did you get this power from?"

Maria could feel that these people also had the same disgusting smell as the alienated monster.

From their attire, Maria could clearly guess that someone in this world was systematically studying the power of these monsters.

Just like the academies in Yharnam.

"This is none of your business, Hunter."

The leader, Sharp Blade, spoke in a dull voice, his voice was suppressed and terrifying.

"You just... killed one of our colleagues."

"……so?"

“…So, we can give you a chance.”

The Blades did not pursue Maria's idea of ​​killing her colleagues. After a moment of silence, they gave another somewhat contradictory statement.

Maria just killed their companion, but they want to recruit Maria into their gang?

These people...don't they care about their companion?

The words seemed strange and somewhat contradictory, but Maria was able to discern some ideas from the other party's attitude.

"So, even if I don't take action, you will kill your colleague?"

Only in this situation would these hunters not care about what Maria had just done.

Because they would also kill their companion, and if an outsider takes action at this time, there would be no need to pursue the matter.

“…” The sharp blades did not respond.

As Ursus's most powerful fighting force, the Blade only needs five people to destroy a city!

But such power is impossible to achieve even if a powerful country selects the best from the best and the elite from the elite.

Therefore, they are very clear about the price of their terrifying strength.

Each of them has the potential to become evil, it’s just a matter of time.

Often, they can feel their bodies being taken over... For the honor of the empire, they often choose to commit suicide... Even if they don't have time, his companions will hunt him down.

Although they were surprised by the alienation of their companion, they were not at a loss.

They were going to kill him themselves.

As for Maria's actions, they actually didn't care.

What they cared more about was the terrifying strength Maria had just displayed.

You know, that mutated evil demon is considered to be of upper-middle level in their team.

The power he can gain after mutation is absolutely terrifying.

But even so, Maria still killed him single-handedly!

This made them feel a certain awe and longing for Maria.

"Your power surpasses that of most civilians... You are worthy of serving a great empire!"

The leader, Blade, spoke, his eyes fixed on Maria.

In his opinion, how could such a powerful person wander around in such a place?

She deserves to serve a powerful, great empire that will one day rise to the top of all races!

And Ursus is such an empire!

"...Thank you, but please allow me to decline."

Maria ignored the other party's solicitation and just spoke calmly to reject the other party's invitation.

She had long lost her desire for glory.

She is Maria, just a hunter.

The Blades did not respond to Maria's refusal.

They just wrapped Maria silently and remained silent.

It was obvious that they had discussed everything long ago.

But Maria just found it ridiculous.

"You think... you can kill me?"

“…You’re already injured.”

The sharp blade that had just spoken spoke again.

He looked at Maria in front of him, his voice calm.

They wanted to win over Maria, a strong person, but they also knew that sometimes some people really could not be invited.

There is only one way to deal with such a person...

As for the terrifying fighting power displayed by Maria, they were not worried.

Although Maria had just killed her colleagues single-handedly, there were many factors involved.

At this time, there were four of them, fully armed and in good condition.

Maria had just fought with a mutated companion, her strength had not recovered, and she was injured.
