Upon hearing that sound, Wen Wen paused, then his lips curled up exaggeratedly.
"Is this the game you arranged? It's like a dark single-player online game..."
"But I like it, hehe."
Behind Wen Wen, Gerald walked out, looking at Wen Wen with confusion. "Who are you talking to?"
"Just consider me talking to myself, Inspector Gerald. Is this a little surprise you arranged for me?" Wen Wen asked, pointing at Jack, who was lying on the ground, occasionally twitching.
Gerald leaned against the wall and said to Wen Wen, "Now I believe you're a real demon hunter."
"Last night, we went on an operation to hunt a werewolf. Ever since that werewolf died, Jack has been acting strangely. Some of his habits are very similar to the werewolf from last night."
"Since you, who claims to be a demon hunter, came along, I've used you to get rid of him."
Wen Wen placed his hand on the hilt of his long sword and spun it. "Aren't you afraid I won't be able to defeat that werewolf?"
Gerald said expressionlessly, "If a self-proclaimed demon hunter can't even defeat a low-level werewolf, then dying is dying. Arland needs true powerhouses, not liars."
Wen Wen whistled. This tall, fair-haired guy was quite blunt.
"Follow me. Such weapons are too weak. I'll show you some truly good things."
Gerald, carrying the monster's corpse in one hand, led Wen Wen inside the guard hall building, into a room surrounded by steel.
Various weapons were displayed in this room, each glinting coldly, with a sinister power flowing through them.
Gerald picked up a long sword and handed it to Wen Wen. "Ordinary weapons are useless against those monsters. You need this."
As soon as he gripped the hilt, Wen Wen's hair floated backward, and a chilling power surged into his body. He seemed to hear the monster's dying howl.
"How did you guys create this?" Wen Wen asked Gerald in surprise. This long sword housed the monster's complete malice. Although powerful, it had significant hidden dangers. Sudan Novel Network.
"You don't need to worry about that. After you hunt monsters, remember to send the corpses here, and we'll give you corresponding rewards."
Wen Wen squinted his eyes, feeling that there must be other secrets hidden within the guard hall.
"No need. I'm not comfortable using this."
Wen Wen threw the long sword back to Gerald, asked for a map of Arland City and some monster intel, and swaggered out of the guard hall.
Gerald stood at the entrance of the guard hall, and after watching Wen Wen's back disappear, a red light flashed in his eyes, and he turned back into the guard hall.
A moment later, the sound of fighting erupted from within the guard hall.
Jack was not the only monster that had infiltrated the guard hall yesterday!
As long as this so-called demon hunter could deliver the monster corpses to the guard hall, the guard hall's strength could rapidly increase, and only then would they truly have the means to contend with those monsters.
No one knew better than Gerald how vast the disparity was between the guard hall's current strength and the monsters lurking in Arland City.
He wasn't worried about not being able to control that somewhat sinister long sword. The sinister nature of that sword, compared to the Blood River Sword, was like comparing a thug from outside the school to Wen Wen himself.
However, Wen Wen felt uncomfortable using that sword, and the steel sword he held was enough.
Using the two gold coins Gerald had advanced him, Wen Wen found a guesthouse to stay in. The guesthouse looked gloomy and dilapidated, making it very uncomfortable to stay in.
But the entire city had this kind of atmosphere, so Wen Wen grudgingly settled in.
As soon as he entered the room, he placed the ten daggers he had brought and the long sword on the bed. Then, using one of the daggers, he cut open his wrist and squeezed a cup of blood into a mug in the guesthouse.
After releasing enough blood, the wound began to heal slowly. After killing the werewolf, Wen Wen had gained some self-healing ability. He then began to carve these weapons with his own blood.
In this state of complete power loss, knowledge was his greatest weapon. Besides being a superhuman, he was also a top-tier rune master!
Even without suitable materials, he could quickly transform these weapons.
The runes carved on the long sword were related to blood: blood-sucking, corrupting blood, and blood poison. Ordinary monsters would be finished if their skin was broken.
The daggers had more functions. Five of them were carved with explosive runes; these daggers, when thrown, had more exaggerated power than grenades.
Among the remaining five daggers, two were enhanced with sharpness, two with fire attribute, and the last one was the "Knife of Kindness"...
After these weapons were enhanced, their power even surpassed the long sword Gerald had given Wen Wen earlier. Even an ordinary person wielding this long sword and swinging it haphazardly could have killed that werewolf.
"Next, I need to consider how to escape from here."
"What Yan Zu said earlier only mentioned killing all the monsters in the city, and then I could reclaim my power."
"But it didn't say that I could escape from here after reclaiming my power."
"So I can't just charge in blindly; that would be too stupid. I need to try and collapse the structure of this dream during the hunting process. Also, the things in the guard hall are very intriguing, and perhaps I can use them to stir up some trouble."
...
In the city of Doxinlida, at the Hunter Association's stronghold, a mysterious visitor arrived.
This was a man in a gray robe, wearing an ancient mask. He was the Judge Shai Priest of the Efey District.
"Where is the wandering hunter, Gui Tan?"
Mo Yadi and Mei Fena stood by, looking slightly nervous. The Judges were already at the top tier of the Hunter Association, and the Shai Priest had always been one of the more reclusive among the Judges.
In fact, the Efey District was less of a controlled area of the Hunter Association and more of a personal kingdom of the Shai Priest. He held complete power over the Efey District.
Mo Yadi whispered, "After we cracked the coma case, he disappeared. He might have already delved deep into the dream to explore the truth of the coma case."
The Shai Priest was stunned for a moment, then he reprimanded, "This is utter nonsense! He knows what's there!"
The information he received was vague, and he was unclear about Wen Wen's strength. Based on his understanding of Yan Zu, Wen Wen might not return from this trip.
The Shai Priest said to Mei Fena, "You take me into the subconscious dream first. If I go in time, that guy might still be saved."
