Chapter 546 Contradiction


    Duanmu Huai did not go to the location where the black shadow was as soon as possible. In the previous few fights, he had already found that this thing was fast enough. Although he was injured before, Duanmu Huai was not sure whether he could catch up with it. So he continued to choose fishing - after all, the fisherman will never be an air force.


    It’s always good to pretend more. Maybe this fish is stupid, so he took the bait by himself.


    So Duanmu Huai pretended to be surrounded by the other party and retreated to the other side of the street. As long as Mary is there, you can easily determine the exact position of the monster. As long as the opponent takes the bait, then it will be time for Duanmu Huai to take action.


    The monster seemed to have not noticed that it had been seen through by Mary. It had been hiding in the fog, and it roared like a beast from time to time. Then black shadows like hunting dogs emerged from the fog and pounced towards Duanmu Huai. They don''t look like monsters with entities, but more like some kind of illusion. Of course, for ordinary people, they may be completely intractable, but for Duanmu Huai, they can just wave their fists easily and directly bombard these black shadow hunting dogs into pieces.


    Mary was hiding beside Duanmu Huai and kept staring at the black shadow. Duanmu Huai couldn''t tell which one was which. After all, in his opinion, the shadow monsters around him seemed to be similar, but for Mary, it seemed that it was easy to see which black shadow was strange... Well, the golden eyes are indeed powerful.


    Duanmu Huai remembers that there is also a kind of magic that can always see through all illusions. Since that magic is relatively easy to obtain, many players have constant magic at the beginning.


    As a result, I suffered a lot.


    The reason is very simple, it is also a kind of "magic". And as long as it is "magic", it is easily disturbed and relieved. What''s worse is that since the players believed that this kind of magic could see through all illusions at that time, they did not think they were deceived at all, and they did not find out the problem until they ended up.


    As a result, this situation continued until the middle stage. Some players accidentally broke through the core of the mission, and the players realized that they had been deceived. At that time, there was a burst of wailing in the forum. It was after that that, many players no longer trusted the so-called magic that could see through all illusions.


    However, this is still very useful for Duanmu Huai. He is not the kind of player who likes to use his brain. Even if he plays games, Duanmu Huai actually hates decryption. For example, mazes and other things have always been what he hates the most. When the player formed a team to fight against the evil god, he directly chose the God of Tyranny instead of the treacherous trick. The reason was that he was too lazy to walk on the maze and solve puzzles.


    It’s so good to hit it directly, what’s the point of wasting brain cells?


    The strong violence is enough to suppress it with stronger violence, it is simple, direct and convenient. If you can beat it, you can beat it. If you can''t beat it, you can''t beat it. You can either live or die. Where can you do so many things? Either smash the other person''s head or be smashed by the other person''s head, straightforward.


    So a battle like now seems a bit annoying for Duanmu Huai.


    According to Mary, although the black shadow followed them all the time, it seemed to be very cautious and had no intention of trying to rush over. This reminded Duanmu Huai of fishing. The black shadow monster was like a fish, just carefully tasted bait outside the hook, but refused to bite the hook...


    This kind of fish is the most annoying. If it is put in reality, it must be pumped. Can you spoil it?


    Since that''s the case, I have to increase my efforts.


    Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai suddenly turned around, then grabbed Mary, resisted her on her shoulders, and ran forward with big strides.


    "Hey? Mr. Duanmu? Hey?! Is this...??"


    Facing Duanmuhuai''s sudden attack, Mary was also shocked.


    "Catch it, let''s have some excitement!"


    Duanmuhuai glanced around and then ran out of the town with big strides. This would give people the feeling that they wanted to take the opportunity to escape because they could not fight. If the black shadow monster took the bait, then Duanmuhuai would naturally be the best.


    “Woof!!”


    The hounds still barked in a constant stream, followed closely behind. Black shadows flew out from the fog and pounced towards Duanmuhuai. Of course, this level of attack had no effect on Duanmu Huai. He just waved his arms easily and smashed all the shadows into pieces.


    "How is it? Mary? Is that guy following me?"


    "I''m following, right behind, but it seems that it has been unwilling to step forward..."


    Mary almost guessed what Duanmuhuai wanted to do. At this moment, Duanmuhuai was also resisted by Duanmuhuai on her shoulder and reported obediently. Of course, being held on the shoulder is definitely not a polite thing for a lady, but now she doesn''t care about this little thing.


    “……Then let’s go back.”


    "Hey? Is this OK?"


    "Depending on the situation, if the other party has not taken the bait, we can only go back to the manor temporarily."


    Although Duanmu Huai can engage in a war of attrition with the other party, there is no need for this. After all, as far as possible, this monster is still very capable, and it is very fast and very smart. It is indeed not easy to kill such an opponent at one time, and Duanmu Huai is not fast. In this case, if the other party is really unwilling to take the bait, then Duanmu Huai has no other way.


    After all, his speed is really not fast - this is Duanmu Huai’s biggest weakness.


    While speaking, Duanmuhuai had already carried Mary away from the town and came to the path to Baskerville Manor. At this moment, it was also covered by fog. Duanmuhuai carried Mary and marched towards the direction of the manor. In the fog behind him, black shadows rushed out from it, and then were smashed into pieces by Duanmuhuai without mercy.


    Although Duanmu Huai couldn''t see it, according to Mary''s description, the black shadow had always been following them, keeping a distance of not far or near.


    Sure enough, maybe it was because of the injury before, so I was more cautious?


    If this is the case, it will be a bit troublesome.


    A moment later, the gate of Baskerville Manor was close to me, and at this moment, Marie''s slightly panicked voice came from Duanmuhuai''s ears again.


    "Mr. Duanmu, that black shadow rushed towards us!"


    At that time, before Mary''s words even fell, Duanmu Huai felt a strong wind blowing from behind him and rushing towards her back!


    “Good come!”


    Facing the attack, Duanmu Huai was not surprised but happy. He was afraid that this monster would be cowardly until the end. Now it seems that this monster could not hold back in the end. As expected, the beast is a wild beast!


    So Duanmu Huai turned around without hesitation, stretched out his right hand, and grabbed him directly towards the other party!


    "Bang!!"


    Black Shadow''s sharp claws hit Duanmuhuai''s chest heavily, tore his clothes apart. At the same time, Duanmuhuai''s right hand also punched out and directly hit Black Shadow''s head. Unlike the shadow hunting dogs that dispersed with one touch before, this time Duanmuhuai can feel the touch of the solid bones and fur from her hands.


    “Ola!”


    Since he finally caught this monster, Duanmu Huai certainly would not let it escape. He roared angrily, clenched his fists again, swung it out like a torrential rain!


    “Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola!!”


    Accompanied by Duanmuhuai''s roar, the iron fist hit the black shadow monster directly like a storm. Immediately afterwards, Duanmuhuai clenched his fists again and raised them high.


    “Ola!!”


    Under this roar, Duanmu Huai''s fist slammed down like an iron hammer, directly hitting the black shadow''s head and knocking it directly to the ground.


    “Bang!”


    With this roar, the black shadow fell heavily and disappeared.


    It was not until this time that Duanmu Huai finally saw the true face of the monster in front of him.


    Just like what I saw before, it looks like a dog, or a bear or a chimpanzee. Simply put, it is a monster with a dog''s head, a strong upper body as strong as a chimpanzee or a bear, and a thick forelimbs and minions. But at this moment, this monster was blasted by Duanmu Huai, and even his head was covered in blood.


    Well... I can only say that this guy is too irresistible. It is definitely not because Duanmu Huai is venting his anger that he cannot catch up with it.


    "Ao...aowuwu..."


    At this moment, the black monster was almost exhausted by Duanmu Huai. It opened its mouth and let out a painful wail. Then it struggled for a while, then there was no sound. Immediately afterwards, it saw that the monster was like plastic melted by fire, and its whole body began to gradually deform, turning into a pool of dark and rich things, as if it was smelly sewage.


    There is no way to do this. After all, strictly speaking, most of the monsters attacking humans in this world are subspace creatures. If they die in the real world, they will basically not leave any traces. This is also one of the reasons why there are many investigators in this world, but there are very few monsters that can be recycled. Of course, there are not no monsters that will leave corpses after death. However, those corpses are more like virus aggregates. Existing alone will cause large-scale chaos and even diseases. Therefore, qualified investigators will basically destroy their corpses directly instead of taking them back to find trouble.


    Of course, there were no player card bugs before. For example, if you find something happens in a certain place, go over and investigate, and then find that the incident is a frozen remains. Then the player handled the incident, but did not destroy the remains, but released it to cause the incident again, and then dealt with it again, and then repeated it again... The result was that the score was deducted terrible. After all, the system is not a fool. If the investigation of a case is meticulous, you will definitely find the culprit. If you find the culprit but don’t deal with it, isn’t this clearly a scam?


    Of course, players can also hide this part as if they have not investigated clearly, but in that case the score will be lowered. Even if this is repeated several times, the combined case scores did not have the highest scores in a complete investigation.


    What should I say... The offensive and defensive battle between player blocking bugs and official bug fixing will continue.


    Soon, the monster completely melted, leaving only a pool of sewage-like traces in the pure white snow. At this moment, the bell girl seemed to have discovered something, grabbed Duanmu Huai''s cheek, and meowed gently, pointing at it.


    "Um?"


    Hearing the sound of the bell girl, Duanmu Huai looked at it carefully, and then he saw something still left behind the black stain.


    Looks like a pendant?


    Duanmuhuai reached out and picked up the pendant. It was an old-looking metal pendant with a pattern of a wolf''s head carved on it.


    Well…that is, is this a wolf?


    “——————!”


    However, just as Duanmuhuai picked up the pendant, his eyes suddenly turned black.


    The next moment, the scenery around suddenly changed.


    In the dark room, an old man was sitting on a chair. He stared at the front, as if he was staring at someone, showing a strange smile.


    "This is the fate of your family. If you want to change all this, you must make sacrifices."


    "sacrifice?"


    “Yes, you should understand what exactly is what we need.”


    Immediately afterwards, the picture turned again.


    In the cold moonlight, in the endless wilderness, the howlings of the hunting dogs were heard one after another, and a ragged girl was running desperately in front of her, Duanmuhuai''s perspective seemed to be higher, as if he was riding on a horse, desperately chasing the girl in front of him.


    Then, a voice sounded.


    "Is it true that as long as you kill that woman, will the curse of the Baskerville family be lifted?"


    "Yes, as long as you kill her, the curse of the Baskerville family will be lifted, and the glory of the family will be restored!"


    Another sound sounded, but it seemed not a sound, but a sound coming from all directions.


    Catch her!


    Kill her!


    "Someone" began to gallop forward desperately, slapped the horse whip, gradually narrowing the distance from the girl in front of him - but soon, Duanmu Huai discovered that something seemed wrong.


    Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for a person to run over a speeding horse, let alone hunting dogs. Although the girl ran away in a very embarrassing manner, she was able to keep a long-distance running posture from the galloping horse and the hound for so long. Thinking about it carefully, there are many things that are very vague when you think about it.


    For example, how did an ordinary girl escape from the wilderness, and even a group of people rode horses and released the hounds without even being caught. Even if the girl left early, it would not be difficult to catch up with her.


    If it were an ordinary person, just seeing this scene would only make him feel that the girl being chased was pitiful, but as a judge, Duanmu Huai has now begun to be vigilant - unfortunately, this is a thing of the past, but for now, he would never think that girl was a pitiful innocent girl. If something goes wrong, there will be a demon. This kind of mortal who is beyond common sense will take action immediately if it is a judge.


    As expected, as if to verify Duanmu Huai’s conjecture, the girl who was chased in front suddenly leaned forward, then landed with both hands, and the next moment, she galloped in the wilderness with her limbs like a wild beast. Seeing this scene, "Someone" seemed to be shocked, but soon Duanmuhuai saw a gun appearing in his sight, aimed at the woman in front and pulled the trigger.


    "Bang!!"


    Gunshots rang out.


    However, at the same time, the **** all fours suddenly jumped and then disappeared. This sudden scene also surprised "someone". He held the gun and looked around, but saw nothing. However, at this moment, suddenly, accompanied by a neigh, the horse riding by "someone" fell to the ground instantly, and "someone" also fell off the horse and fell heavily.


    “Huh——!!”


    "Someone" fell heavily on the ground. Before he could get up, suddenly, a face appeared in front of him. It was a distorted, ferocious, looking like a beast than a human.


    “————!”


    Then, the illusion disappeared.


    The scene in front of me returned to normal again. Duanmu Huai frowned and looked at the necklace in front of me.


    This is the third time that my inexplicable ability has been activated. Sure enough, just like I thought, it seems that what the ancestor of the Baskerville family encountered was unusual.


    But...... Now that the demon dog has been beaten to death by himself, it should be fine, right?


    Or is there any trouble?


    "Mr. Duanmu, are you okay?"


    When Duanmuhuai came to her senses, Mary''s voice also came from her ears. She was grabbing Duanmuhuai''s clothes in fear and staring at his chest.


    "Hmm? Do I look like something is wrong?"


    “Because of the clothes…”


    "oh."


    Aware of Mary''s gaze, Duanmu Huai lowered her head, and then she found that several cracks were torn out of her chest by the monster. From Mary''s point of view, it may be a very dangerous thing.


    "It''s okay, it''s just tore the clothes."


    Kissing, Duanmu Huai''s physique can be used to take a bath directly with liquid nitrogen. It''s too whimsical to break his defenses if a monster came from.


    “Huh……”


    Hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, Mary breathed a sigh of relief. Then she turned her head and looked at the dark stain on the ground.


    "If this happens, is it the end?"


    "Who knows, let''s see the situation first."


    Duanmu Huai said while holding the pendant in his hand, saying that he always felt that this matter was not that simple, and if the scene he saw before was true, it would be completely contrary to the legend of the Baskerville family - at least the arrested girl was definitely not an innocent person, and the reason why the Baskerville family arrested her must not be just for enjoyment.


    Maybe you can get more clues from this pendant?


    In short, let’s try it first.
