Chapter 493 We Hunters Are All Great Saints
Swift Frankish short arrows fell from the sky, and there were so many of them that it was no exaggeration to call it a rain of arrows.
It only took a moment for the parasites gathered near the city gate to be blown up by arrows, leaving only mutilated corpses!
The smell of blood attracted more monsters. Whether it was parasites or human blood, it would excite these ancient sealed creatures. Unfortunately, what they had to face now were professionals in dealing with aliens.
Before the first wave of arrow rain was over, the Fran guards transformed into wolf cavalry jumped off the city wall, waving their weapons and rushing into the enemy group. The giant wolf's body crushed the parasites like a tank, and the monsters that luckily escaped would be torn into pieces by the weapons that followed, and blood mixed with minced meat rained down from the sky!
The parasites posed no obstacle at all. They rushed directly into the city and killed all the enemies along the way.
The people who had just been rescued were stunned. The Red people had never seen such a scene before. The bloody Fran guards looked like gods of death.
If the Fran guards had not changed into helmets that reveal their faces, allowing people to clearly see their human faces, people would probably think they were the cruel demon king's army!
Because in the past, when they killed the demons, they often got so excited that they fought recklessly, turning the entire scene into a red mosaic, and the people they saved were often misunderstood as non-human beings, so Dahl had no choice but to change the helmet to a style that showed the face.
"You, who are you?"
Someone asked in a trembling voice, and everyone looked up at Dahl. Whether from his aura or other aspects, he seemed to be the leader of this group.
Dahl did not answer this question. He turned over, jumped off the city wall, and kicked the heavy and thick city gate.
The city gate slowly opened. He sighed in his heart that it was great to be able to open the door at will, and said to the survivors: "Go outside the city, it's safer there."
People looked at each other in bewilderment. Although there might be wild beasts attacking the city outside, compared to the disaster that had already occurred in the city, the wild beasts seemed particularly cute, so they all ran outside.
Looking at the fleeing crowd, Dahl couldn't help but recall the scenes he had seen along the way.
After learning the situation from Isa, he and the Fran guards rushed over without stopping. The reason why they were so anxious was, firstly, because there was no threat to the city of Saviss anymore, and secondly, after learning the news from the capital, they felt that there might be problems there.
As a result, when the wolves rushed here at full speed, they saw the outbreak of the parasitic plague, which happened to catch them. Of course, they had to prepare to rescue people. Due to a series of pretentious decisions made by King Ur, there were really no parasites in the suburbs at least outside the capital city, so it was completely feasible for people to temporarily leave the city for refuge.
There were nine Faran guards present, originally there should have been ten, but Dal sent Clan back to the Thane dungeon to find out how to get back to the Kingdom of Anor from Red.
As for the purpose, of course it is to attract people.
Although there were only nine Fran guards, there were more than just those who came to help.
"Ugh, uhhhhh!"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd who was fleeing out of the city fell to the ground, struggling and screaming, with veins popping out on his body. The others quickly moved away from him, screaming, "Bugs! Bugs have gotten into him!"
Thanks to their strong vitality, the monsters that were crushed to the ground by the Fran guards still have parasites alive in their flesh and blood, and breaking through the skin of ordinary people is not a problem for them!
Once there is one case, there will be a second case. In the blink of an eye, more and more people will show the initial symptoms of being parasitized, collapsing to the ground and twitching like epilepsy.
At this moment, dozens of figures rushed out and rushed towards the parasites, shouting, "Leave us alone!"
Looking closely, isn’t that Isa, and there are dozens of hunters from the city of Savis!
At the beginning, they were limited by their strength and could not keep up with Yufei's speed. They could only stay in Savis City to build infrastructure and could not come to the capital. But now the giant wolf guarded by Fran has a very broad back, so it is definitely no problem to bring dozens of people here.
If given a choice, these people all want to fight for fun. How could anyone be willing to stay in the post-war city of Savis to build infrastructure? If all the parasites are not expelled from Red, who would have the heart to rebuild the city!
But what can Isa and the others do to save the infected people? The capital has a huge population, and it is impossible to give each person a blood injection vial. What's more, some people's symptoms cannot be cured with just one blood bottle.
But it doesn’t matter. Only those who are deeply parasitized need to generously inject an entire blood bottle.
For these residents whose bodies have just been invaded by parasites and whose minds have not yet been controlled, it is very easy to save them!
"Bang!"
A crisp sound of breaking was heard, and Isa threw the blood collection bottle directly to the side of the parasite. In an instant, blood mixed with container fragments splashed everywhere, and even the smell of blood that people could smell was floating everywhere.
The bodies of all the parasites stiffened suddenly, and then they pounced on the blood on the ground like crazy, and kept licking the blood on the ground. However, the parasites had not yet controlled their minds, and they could not feel the taste of this special blood at all. Naturally, they were extremely anxious.
The next moment, the anxious parasites crawled out of the residents' bodies and swarmed towards the blood on the ground. In the blink of an eye, a large group of indescribable things formed by the entangled parasites gathered on the ground. Isa went up and threw a incendiary bomb to burn it to ashes.
That's right, blood from the dungeon has an extraordinary attraction to parasites.
If the parasites have just infested the human body and smell the unique smell of blood, there is a high probability that they will directly abandon the tasteless human body and throw themselves into the arms of the blood collection bottle!
However, there are some stubborn elements who will insist on occupying the residents' bodies. At this time, Isa has a second plan.
The hunters all cut a wound on their bodies at the same time, and fresh blood flowed out.
So the stubborn parasites also went crazy and immediately abandoned ordinary humans and pounced on them.
Isa and the others opened their arms and took it all in. They would kill if they could, and if they couldn't be killed, it didn't matter even if they got into their bodies.
The combination of these two methods is enough to make the parasites no longer pay attention to the tasteless residents, thus protecting people's safety!
The survivors were all stunned.
First, there were the Fran guards who killed parasites as easily as killing chickens, and now there came a group of hunters who would rather be parasitized themselves than protect everyone. The latter seemed to have brought a greater shock to people than the former!
"They, they don't want to live anymore!?" The crowd made a trembling voice.
The local residents had no idea that the hunters would be free from the control of the parasites. In their eyes, Isa and the others were giving up their lives to save them!
In their minds, they elevated the moral factors of this behavior to several levels. This behavior can no longer be described as helpful!
"What are you still standing there for? Run!" Isa glared at the dazed people. If they didn't run, the parasites would continue to pour in. Did they really think the hunters would be unharmed after being penetrated by the parasites? Everyone was also enduring the pain, okay?
The residents reacted immediately. Some of them bowed to Isa with tears in their eyes and thanked her. After saying a sincere "Thank you!", they turned around and ran away, finally running out of the city.
Before running away, almost everyone had to thank the hunters who stayed here to act as human-shaped decoy skulls. The scene was a reward for high-quality human behavior.
At first the hunters found it quite useful, but after a while they started to feel something was wrong.
"Why do they feel like they are holding a memorial service?"
Isa quickly threw this unlucky thought out of her mind. Seeing that the people who had gathered here earlier had successfully escaped, she finally stopped enduring the damage caused by the parasites to her body. While wiping the blood from the corners of her mouth, she assigned tasks to the hunters.
Everyone had already discussed it on the way here. The Fran guards would be responsible for violent sanctions and clearing out the vast majority of monsters, while the hunters would rescue the survivors and, depending on the situation, gather the city's manpower to organize a counterattack. The division of labor was clear.
If everything goes well, saving the huge capital is only a matter of time.
The hunters were commanded by Isa, the Fran guards were handed over to Wesker, as for Dal.
He sensed something and headed straight for the palace, killing the frenzied parasites along the way, and he finally came to where King Ur was.
The king, at this moment, looked haggard and confused. He did not react at all even when a stranger broke in. He even slapped a scroll containing chaos magic on his head. The scene was extremely weird.
Seeing this, Dal took out a healing potion and knocked the scroll out of the opponent's hand with a throwing knife. King Ur is an important witness and he cannot be allowed to die.
But just as he rushed to King Ur and before he had time to sprinkle the healing potion, the entire palace suddenly shook violently, the ground cracked in an instant, and the palace collapsed in an instant, leaving Dal with no way to escape. He had no choice but to hold King Ur by his side to resist the collapse. He could feel himself falling continuously.
"boom!"
The palace fell into the underground space, stirring up thick smoke and dust, which covered everything for a moment, whether it was the roar of monsters or something else.
The ruins trembled, and Dahl crawled out from it. Apart from looking a little disheveled, he was not injured. Fortunately, he had a strong physique.
However, when he looked down, he saw that the skinny King Ur's neck had turned 360 degrees and he was deader than dead.
“.”
The corner of Dahl's mouth twitched, and he suddenly thought that it would be nice if this was a dungeon.
Many dangerous auras appeared around him. He looked up at this huge underground space and thought that this must be an insect's nest, so these dangerous auras must be parasites.
But the next moment, accompanied by a roar that sounded like a human or an animal, a surging air wave immediately blew away the smoke and dust, and along with the smoke and dust, a large amount of parasite flesh flew in front of Dar.
He couldn't help but look towards the source of the sound.
There, stood a tall werewolf with a ferocious appearance that was terrifying, waving its sharp claws at the surrounding parasites.
Not a parasite?
Dal's eyes narrowed because he found that the werewolf was wearing the tattered clothes of a Yharnam hunter.
Not only that, the opponent's sharp claws were tightly holding the meat saw, and some methods could be seen while he was swinging the knife violently!
He probably understood.
"You must be the brother Isa was talking about. It's really amazing that you have fought until now."
Dal gave a respectful look to Vann, who looked like a beast no matter how you looked at him, and his voice caught the other party's attention. Beastmen could not distinguish between friend and foe, so was they going to kill each other next?
The strange thing is that although Fann's eyes were cloudy, he just glanced at the other party and continued to kill the insects!
"Is there still hope?"
Dahl realized that the other party did not seem to have completely lost his mind. If he knocked Vann out now and brought him back to the Sen Dungeon, would it be possible for the beast transformation to improve?
He calmly took out the tranquilizer and slowly walked towards Fann.
“Kaalaala——”
But before he could take any action, a strange sound spread throughout the entire underground space, and everyone except him looked in a certain direction.
Like something breaking out of a cocoon?
He followed Fann's gaze and saw the solid rock wall in the distance.
A giant insect egg beat like a heart, and an inhuman claw covered with an insect-like exoskeleton pierced the egg's shell from the inside out.
Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the eggs, and an extremely dangerous aura leaked out from the cracks!
Dahl blinked.
"squeak--"
The insect eggs shattered with a loud bang, and a demonic energy exploded, almost turning into a blood-red substance, symbolizing the birth of a powerful life.
Yuffie's face appeared.
Is it her?
No, it is this!
Yuffie opened her eyes, revealing insect-like compound eyes.
The Parasite King is born!
