The Game of Demon Hunter

Xu Yichen didn't know the exact location of Storm's End, he could only make sure that he was walking in the right direction, and the footprints left by the Tyrannosaurus rex had been guiding him.

After setting off from the Tyrannosaurus rex's cave, he has been walking alone in the forest for three days, but he still hasn't completely walked out of the hunting range of the Tyrannosaurus rex.

The empty forest made the witcher feel like he was freed from the invisible shackles, and the pressure brought about by chaos and various games in reality has subconsciously dissipated a lot.

Every day when he wakes up at the temporary rest point, Xu Yichen will act according to his predetermined plan, obtain food, and look for traces left by nearby creatures.

He even took pains to identify the traces left by each animal, and through these traces, it was determined whether the surrounding creatures were still in a healthy state or had been infected by the plague.

The first few days went well. He checked every water source he passed. It had just rained and the water quality was not very clear, but there was no pollution.

Although the number of surrounding animals was small, no signs of disease were found.

This was much better than what Xu Yichen expected.

Originally, he thought that there were already corpses everywhere in this direction, and corpses that had been resurrected from the dead were everywhere.

It seemed that the undead human was likely to be hit by mistake, wandered into the forest alone, and was swallowed by the tyrannosaurus rex as a snack.

After cleaning up the plague-infected lizard, the witcher carved a mark on the tree trunk, intending to search the surroundings to see if there were more infected creatures.

Experience in reality told him that the sooner the extermination work is started for this zombie virus or plague, the better the effect will be.

However, if the plague really erupted from Storm's End and spread all the way here, then any epidemic prevention measures would be useless.

The plague has infected enough living bodies to face any blow at any level.

However, this has become Xu Yichen's occupational disease. When he thinks that there may be nests of infected creatures around him, if he doesn't clean it up, it feels like a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder seeing a cup that is not neatly placed.

Xu Yichen spent a whole day around the tree where the lizard zombie was found, and finally he found a polluted water pool more than one kilometer to the east of the big tree.

This water pool obviously existed before the heavy rain, and there are many animal ways scattered around the water pool, and many bones left over from being eaten can be seen on the way of the witcher.

On the somewhat turbid surface of the pool, there were many corpses of bugs floating.

A humanoid creature in armor fell beside the pool, only two thighs were exposed, and most of its body was soaked in the water.

Around the water pool, even the never-ending chirping of insects in the forest disappeared, making it extremely quiet.

Xu Yichen pierced the corpse's calf with [Elegant Ripper], and a stench came out from the wound, making the already bad smell even worse.

The feeling of the long sword entering the body does not feel like piercing a human muscle, but more like cutting some rotten fruit, with no sense of force.

Xu Yichen tried to drag the corpse out of the pool with slight force, but the sharp blade directly tore apart the calf muscles of the corpse.

The witcher had no choice but to take two steps forward, grabbed the belt on the opponent's armor, and dragged the corpse back a few meters, away from the range of the pool.

He was afraid that some large animal would inhabit the pool and attack suddenly.

Fighting wild beasts in stagnant water soaked in corpses is a job that even witchers are unwilling to face.

The corpse was intact, but the head had been soaked in water for several days, and the entire face was swollen to the point where it couldn't see its true colors.

In the previous dragging process, a lot of soil was stained, and at this time it seems to be quite a test of the SAN value.

The lace of the armor looks slightly similar to the one in the belly of the previous Tyrannosaurus rex, but it has been simplified a lot. It can be determined that this corpse and the previous undead are from the same faction.

Without a helmet, it is likely that he was abandoned when crossing the forest before, or left too hastily and lost his helmet.

The owner of the corpse seemed to want to drink heavily in the pool before dying, and then lost his life just like that.

No fatal wounds were found on the whole body, but two severe cuts on the ankles directly severed the hamstrings. Judging from the angle of the cuts, it seemed that the owner of the corpse had cut these two cuts with a knife himself.

There are many scratches on the exposed palms and neck. It seems that this person has been scrambling in the forest for a long time.

"I don't want to become a puppet of the plague and hurt others after death, so I cut off my hamstrings to limit my ability to move?" Xu Yichen glanced at the swollen face, it was the corpse of a brave man.

"But why didn't you become an undead?" The demon hunter still remembered that the undead swallowed by the tyrannosaurus rex, even though only a small part of the body was left, it still remained alive.

And the corpse in front of him was as quiet as a real corpse.

"I'm sorry, brave man!" Xu Yichen took out a dagger, cut through the binding belt of the corpse's armor, then threw off the armor without hesitation, and planed the corpse along the central axis.

Inside the corpse, various viscera and intestines had turned black and tended to be carbonized, the entire stomach had disappeared, and a small piece of metal residue was pulled out by the witcher in the putrescence in the abdominal cavity.

The metal residue was gently crushed by fingers, turned into powder, and fell into the stagnant water on the ground. Suddenly, it seemed like a pot was boiling, and many bubbles appeared.

Xu Yichen put his fingers into the stagnant water, and immediately felt the reaction between the water and the powder left on his fingers, and the temperature rose sharply.

The witcher seems to have seen a desperate warrior, at the last moment of his life, desperately eating a special potion in the forest.

This potion was not developed to save his life, but to completely destroy his body, so as to prevent his corpse from standing up again and becoming the enemy of mankind.

The potion needed a lot of water to be effective, and when he discovered the pool, the warrior made his final decision.

However, the effect of the potion might not be so stable. To be on the safe side, he cut his hamstring with his own dagger at the edge of the pool to ensure that he would not stand up again.

The witcher opened the warrior's mouth, and there were burn marks on the mouth and tongue.

No matter who invented this method of self-destruction, it will test the user's courage and tolerance for pain.
