This aura is deadly

"It sounds like the plot of a second-rate fantasy movie. At least I haven't seen the trick of drawing a summons before." Chen Ke spread his hands.

"What's the movie?" asked little Jack.

"It must be a fashionable thing of their time, but Chen Ke, have you really never seen this formation?" Jacob asked.

"I've never seen it... things at the transcendent level are indeed far beyond human understanding, but I'm not sure if there is any way to summon them by drawing a circle..." Chen Ke did not completely reject Jacob's guess.

After all, my knowledge of the extraordinary level is not deep enough. What if it is really popular in this world to draw a circle to summon demons? He squatted on the ground and studied the patterns on the ground carefully, trying to see if there would be any pop-up windows in his view.

It's a pity that there is no pop-up window in the field of vision. This circular formation looks very high-end, but it is just a pattern drawn on the ground with ordinary paint.

Chen Ke touched the pattern with his hand. The place where the paint was spilled was obviously softer than the surrounding ground. It seemed that the traces here were not too old. Although I don’t know the exact time, it will definitely be within a few days.

So they're working on this? Combining the woman Jack hung in the alley before and the unformed god she fell to, Chen Ke probably knew what Jacob and Jack were doing.

Although it is not certain, Chen Ke guessed that someone in this era was trying to use some mysterious method to summon an unknown god to come. The way of summoning was to draw a picture on the ground, and the way of coming was to use the uterus of a human woman to give birth.

"You are investigating a very dangerous matter." Chen Ke looked at Jacob.

"Do you think I don't know? It's all thanks to little Jack." Jacob threw the pot on little Jack.

"What is going on? You are all ordinary people, how come you are related to this matter?" Chen Ke asked.

Little Jack scratched the back of his head and told the story exactly.

This matter has to start from a year ago...

Jack no longer needs to do a job as a pickpocket. More than 20 years later, the adult Jack has become a reliable fighter. His and Dayager's first priority is to protect the children when they steal.

It was a cold night, and Big Yag had already gone back first. Little Jack had a quarrel with a woman named Wendy that day, so he climbed to the top of Big Ben Tower to enjoy the breeze.

The moon that day was very big and bright, and the stars were scattered in the dark blue night sky, emitting bright light. Little Jack looked at the cargo ship as small as a shoe, sailing on the Thames River reflected in the white moonlight.

The sound of the ship's whistle and engine mixed with the howling wind from high altitude filled Jack's ears. Even though there was such a noise around him, he still heard the sound of leather boots running on the roof.

Rooftops at night were the domain of thieves. Little Jack stood up and patrolled the surrounding rooftops condescendingly, trying to see who was passing by him.

On the roofs of Macaulay's Bakery and the Longtown Journal his eyes caught a gleam of white. It was a woman wearing a strange windbreaker and a three-cornered hat, with long white braids flying in the night.

Subconsciously, Jack began to chase the shadow.

He slid down the white wall of Big Ben and landed on the roof of the workers' dormitory nearby. He followed the white-haired woman as she jumped on the roof, chasing her all the way.

The woman seemed to have unlimited physical strength. No matter how hard Jack chased, he could not keep up with her pace. She was like an elegant suzuka, jumping between different rooftops. A single leap was surprising. The distance required Jack to swing from the rope hook just to keep up with her pace.

The woman must have known that Jack was following her, otherwise, she wouldn't have deliberately slowed down at every gap and every corner, as if she was waiting for him on purpose.

The two chased each other under the moonlight. When the woman jumped off the roof, she disappeared into a dark alley.

Jack looked down and couldn't find the woman, so he used a rope hook to fix the eaves of the house, then jumped down and landed in the alley.

He looked at the exit and entrance of the alley. Judging from the place where he landed, it was more than a hundred steps away from both exits. It was obviously impossible for the white-haired woman to run out so quickly.

He collected the rope hook and started walking back. At this time, there was a heart-stopping sound of breathing behind him.

Jack heard from Jacob that this city had an unexplainable existence, and he almost went blind because of it, but a mysterious friend helped him, and Jack knew that he might have encountered that thing tonight.

The sound of breathing was so strange and heavy. As the breathing continued to come closer, God Jack felt that the surrounding space was gradually fading away. The dark blue night sky slowly turned into blood red, and blood-red blood vessel proliferation spread on the ground.

But Jack didn't want to sit still and wait for death. The rope hook hung down from the sleeve of his right arm, and he pulled out a large dagger from the sheath on his waist with his left hand.

Just when the breath behind him was close to his neck, Jack rolled forward suddenly, and then threw the rope hook behind him. A twisted human body appeared behind him, with black hair and pale body covered with Judging from the bloody lines on her chest, she is a woman.

The rope hook wrapped around the neck of the thing. Jack yanked hard, trying to pull it over, and slashed the neck with the dagger, but the other person was stronger than him. The rope tightened and Jack's feet were pressed against the ground. , leaning back, wrestling with it.

A stream of red mist hit Jack along the rope. He knew that this thing could not touch him, so he made a prompt decision, cut the rope, and took a few steps back.

The thing shook off its hair and revealed its face. In the dark alley, Jack couldn't see its face clearly, but he could see the strong white teeth. The thing took off the rope hook from its neck and melted in a flash. A cloud of blood mist quickly floated to the wall and materialized again, lying on the wall on all fours.

Jack would take out two small daggers from his belt and throw them at it.

The thing turned into a silent red mist again, and the flying knife hit the wall with a clanking sound, and finally fell into the darkness and could never be found again.

The red mist surged toward Jack. He used a dagger to chop at it, and the blade penetrated the mist. Jack smelled a strong rotten odor, and then, a pale female body appeared on his body.

The thing opened its mouth wide and bit down on his neck. Jack's eyes widened in pain, and he stabbed the thing's side with a dagger. Blood spurted out, as if it was so hot that it could melt his hand.

It bit Jack's throat and tore it off. Chen Ke's eyes turned white, his feet trembled in pain, his face turned red due to lack of oxygen, and the wound on his neck spurted out blood like a fountain, but he His right hand still held the dagger, turning it back and forth in the thing's belly, stirring its internal organs.

It let go of Jack and took a few steps back. The wound on its abdomen had healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Jack leaned against the wall, knowing that he would have to confess here tonight. Ordinary people really couldn't deal with this kind of monster, but when a person was about to die, he would still struggle subconsciously. He pressed against the wall and held on to give it a try. The mentality is lurching toward the exit.

The thing rushed towards Jack's back, grabbed his waist violently, and took away a large piece of flesh and blood. Jack fell to the ground, and before he could get up, the thing pinned him to the ground and tore him apart. It ripped out his abdominal muscles, opened its mouth and bit down, pulling out his intestines and organs.

The severe pain made Jack faint. After an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes like a flashback and saw the monster lying next to him, with its head in a different place.

The white-haired woman appeared in her sight. She shook off the blood on her rapier and put it back in its sheath. Then he squatted in front of Jack, held his shoulders, and sighed softly.

"Follow the pale blood and surpass this hunt." The white-haired woman took out a test tube, which contained bright red blood.

Jack reached out and grabbed it.
