Chapter 109
Except for a few guys who didn't intend to take advantage of the chaos to do anything, everyone was horrified.
What does "OK" mean?
The hooded man is so cheerful, polite, and mysterious, and he goes deep into danger alone. Shouldn't he be a kind-hearted and compassionate guy?
Why can he say such words as "I'll kill you or chop you up" without changing his expression or even with great excitement?
This was totally unexpected! !
Number Four and Number Five were also confused. They were originally on guard against sudden attacks from the monsters around them. Although they were somewhat wary of the hooded man just now, they were not too wary - after all, in their minds, the most dangerous ones were the monsters who were eyeing them covetously and wanted to devour humans.
Therefore, they were stunned for a moment.
In other situations, this split second of deviation would be more than enough. It is impossible for an ordinary person to attack others skillfully without any pause.
But the person holding the knife is the player.
The moment after he said that, he took a long knife and pierced the man's chest without hesitation, even nailing him directly to the wall behind him!
“…Aaaaaah!!”
A scream came from the mouths of ordinary people huddled in the corner of the room. They looked at the man nailed to the wall in horror, and suddenly realized that this hooded man who suddenly appeared was a terrifying guy who was no less terrible than a monster!
As long as he wanted, he was fully capable of doing so, and he didn't mind killing anyone alive here!
At this moment, everyone took a step back uncontrollably, looking at the hooded man in horror and fear, including the monsters who felt shrouded in omnipresent murderous intent.
Rather, their uncertainty and fear were more profound than those ordinary people present.
Did the hooded man really jokingly thrust the knife into the man's body just because he said, "Come at me if you want to kill me"?
Or maybe he had already seen through what they were thinking and what they were going to do!
The monsters dared not make a sound for a moment, and even the magic power in their bodies stopped surging.
The hooded man tilted his head slightly, his expression did not change at all, and he continued to smile and said, "Why are you looking at me like that? I was only fulfilling his wish."
He said in a relaxed tone: "It was this guy who asked me to kill him himself, so I can't deny it."
"...You!" Number Four gritted his teeth.
This is simply sophistry!
Who would kill someone just because of what others said? !
"He...he is not my husband..." The pregnant woman who was left aside finally recovered and said tremblingly: "He just pulled me here by force...!"
Number Four was stunned: "...What?"
He subconsciously turned around and looked at the man who was nailed to the wall with a long knife.
The pregnant woman's words proved that everything the man had just said was just a lie and that his actions had other purposes.
In this light, it is only natural for the hooded man to be suspicious of him—
What the hell!
A chill rose up behind Number Four.
——Just because of suspicion, he directly took action to kill the suspect, and the technique was even very skillful. There was not even the slightest tremor in his hands when he was waving the knife, as if he had held the knife and seen blood countless times.
This guy...
Suddenly, the hooded man whispered, "Why are you... running?"
It was as if a light breeze brushed across their cheeks. Before Number Four and Number Five could come to their senses, the long sword that had been nailed to the wall had returned to the hooded man's hand and was sheathed. But while the hooded man was talking to No. 4 and No. 5, the driver, who had quietly retreated to a distance outside the room, and his companion who had just returned, both stood strangely frozen in place!
The next moment, a very thin line of blood slowly spread from their necks.
Heads fell to the ground.
…Just a moment.
This unidentified hooded man completed the entire process of taking out the knife, drawing the knife, and putting the knife away.
This horrifying scene completely stimulated the monsters that were originally still hoping for a lucky break. They all rushed out like crazy, trying to overtake their companions and use their lives to fight for their own hope of survival. The farther away from the strange hooded man in the room, the better.
The hooded man sighed softly.
He had finally waited for all these monsters to gather, but now they are running away in all directions one after another. Doesn't he know how much trouble this will cause him?
You know, he can't use his skills now. Since he can't use skills of mass destruction, he can only deal with them one by one. These monsters will increase his workload, and it will be really hard for him.
He was very dissatisfied with this, but the knife in his hand did not slow down at all. He just swung it lightly, but in an instant it was divided into dozens of paths, directly blocking all the escape routes of the fastest monster!
“Squeak——”
The moment it touched the blade, the magical long sword forced the monster out of its physical body. The sharp blade broke into the flesh and blood. In the end, it looked as if the monster itself had hit the hooded man's blade!
After the successful attack, the hooded man did not show any complacency, nor did he hesitate. He slightly tilted the blade and cut into the body of another monster as if he had eyes, directly predicting the monster's possible trajectory.
This kind of awareness and control of combat is like being immersed in bloody battles for several years, and being very adept and skilled in how to take lives.
Moreover, even if the hooded man didn't seem to be attacking seriously, Number Four would have to pay extremely close attention to be able to barely make out the trajectory of his knife.
He even felt that... the reason why the hooded man's movements were so slow, unlike his previous lightning-fast actions to kill the two drivers, was that the speed at which these monsters fled was too slow in his opinion. Imagine, would you be anxious if a turtle escaped?
If you are not in a hurry, you will not catch it at a faster speed. Instead, you will calmly and leisurely use a movement that is only slightly faster than a turtle to hold it firmly in place.
Just like now.
With a clang, the hooded man put the knife back into the scabbard.
In front of him, there was a trembling monster crawling, its physical form forced to reveal itself.
Even though he deliberately did not leave fatal wounds on the monsters, the monsters touched by his sword and magic power seemed to be severely injured. They could not even utter a syllable and could only tremble.
“…So weak.”
The hooded man sounded somewhat disappointed.
Su Xingyuan was of course disappointed. The fact that these monsters were weak was of no benefit to him. Firstly, they could not provide him with experience, and secondly, they could not survive his light attacks.
After his comprehension and understanding of the "Lord of Hell" profession improved, Su Xingyuan's attacks better reflected the characteristics of his profession. Now even if he could control his damage very finely, these low-level monsters would not be able to withstand the shock and erosion brought by the Lord of Hell's attack.
Su Xingyuan glanced at it, lifted it up by its head, and stuffed the lowest-grade blood-restoring herb in his backpack, which he had synthesized from herbs because there was no pharmacist, into the monster's mouth.
Even the worst health-restoring potion the player had was not slow to take effect. It was almost visible to the naked eye. The monsters began to recover some vitality, at least they were no longer half-dead.
However, the monster being held by Su Xingyuan did not dare to resist at all. Even the uncontrollable trembling was due to concerns that it might annoy the hooded man and cause him to crush his head if he was unhappy - he was definitely capable of doing such a thing.
...It's so scary, how could there be such a scary guy in this world?
This is impossible! !
Could it be that the monsters that invaded this world before and disappeared inexplicably were also dealt with by this person...? !
The monster was as quiet as a chicken, looking confused and startled, but the hooded man looked natural, as if there was nothing wrong in healing the monster. He gently said to the people in the room: "It's over, you are safe, leave here."
The people who were caught here felt as if they had been pardoned. After making sure that he really didn't care where they went, they rushed out of the room without any reluctance. I'm afraid they will be traumatized by online ride-hailing services for some time to come.
The pregnant woman was the slowest walker among them. The cold sweat on her forehead had not yet disappeared and was even showing signs of getting worse. She was already about to give birth, and she encountered several crises that night. She was even forcibly dragged out. Her condition was very bad at the moment.
The hooded figure seemed to glance at her.
"Wait," he said.
The pregnant woman froze and looked at him with a little fear.
The hooded man, however, took out a piece of dessert like a magic trick and said simply, "Eat."
The pregnant woman did not dare to disobey him and ate the dessert with trembling lips.
But the next moment, she felt a warm current flowing down her throat along her esophagus, and in an instant it spread to every part of her limbs. Not only did her strength return, and her hands and feet were no longer weak, but the sweetness of the dessert and the magical effect it brought even soothed her tense spirit and stopped the dull pain in her stomach.
“……” The pregnant woman was slightly stunned.
Then she nodded gratefully to the hooded man and slowly walked out of the unfinished building.
Number 4 and Number 5, who did not move, saw it all.
If they were still hesitating and doubting before, after seeing this scene, they had already vaguely confirmed their guesses.
"Excuse me..." Number Five asked carefully, "You are the one who helps humans in the portal... right?"
This kind of strength is simply not something that ordinary people can possess.
The hooded man tilted his head slightly. He didn't answer, but he didn't attack suddenly either. In fact, after discovering that he was able to kill the previous man without hesitation, Five felt that it would be a victory if the hooded man didn't kill him.
So, Number Five boldly asked again, "Are you leaving...?"
This time, the hooded man spoke first. He raised the obedient monster in his hand: "Leave? Of course not."
"If I were to leave, how could I leave anyone alive?" He seemed to smile: "Leaving no one alive... is my style."
Number Five's scalp felt a little numb. She could tell the hooded man was serious.
But before she could say anything to persuade him to stay, the hooded man turned around, dragged the monster away, and said briskly: "It's not easy to come here, of course I can't keep working, don't you think?"
"This guy won't last long. If you want to find me..." He tilted his head slightly and said with a smile: "Before ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
