PDLP Chapter 130 Hunter
Chapter 130 Hunter
"call--"
Lin Hun let out a long breath, and the matter in his heart was finally settled.
It is a bit difficult to burn all the villagers without burning the hunters. Their souls are like oil, which will ignite as soon as they are touched by flames. You can only concentrate and be extra careful.
"Done?" Kos told Him the answer without even looking at the core.
"Yes, it's not difficult," Lin Hun lowered his head and looked at the core that had turned gray. Occasionally, a dark red soul flashed inside. This was the soul of a hunter, which had turned black after a long period of killing.
When the forest soul purified the villagers of the fishing village, these marks instinctively moved away. Cursed by Kos, they had an instinctive fear and disgust for the breath of the superiors in the depths of their souls, even though they had never felt the breath that appeared now.
However, when they noticed that the marks of the villagers in the fishing village began to dissipate and their numbers were significantly reduced, they ran back happily and rushed into the fire with their heads down.
However, with Kos's previous reminder, Lin Hun had already been on guard against them. Every time the hunter's soul was about to come into contact with the flame, the flame would always dissipate accordingly.
The last villager of the fishing village was liberated by the forest soul. Without the huge number of souls of the villagers of the fishing village to provide cover, the soul of the hunter was so bloody and eye-catching under the reflection of the flames.
Lin Hun didn't have time to distinguish the good from the bad hunters one by one, just like the villagers in the fishing village. If it weren't for the priest, he wouldn't bother with these spineless people.
Lin Hun drew out his sword and the flames were swept away.
The core of the dream sank quietly into the ground. From the outside, Lin Hun could not see any ups and downs in the ground due to the burial of the core, but everything was normal in the dream.
"Okay, now you just need to leave the dream and walk straight ahead. That's the way to leave the dream. I won't see you off."
After this incident, Kos decisively began to urge Lin Hun to set off.
Nodding silently, Lin Hun remained silent as usual when facing someone he didn't understand.
"By the way, you will see a huge seal in the distance, but I think your power should be able to break it easily, so I just mentioned it casually," Kos' tone turned serious, "Don't take it too seriously."
But he immediately returned to his previous casual tone, with a hint of gloating in his voice.
"It doesn't matter if it's too much. It's Moon's domain anyway."
Lin Hun kept Kos's warning in mind, sheathed his sword, left the coast and walked in the direction he came from, where there was an exit.
The sticky feeling lingered behind him and did not follow him, which made Lin Hun feel relieved. It is better to stay away from these superiors.
From a distance, Lin Hun saw a long pole sticking upright in the sand, and there was no one nearby.
Watching in silence, Lin Hun thought of the only guy who still had a human appearance, and a smile appeared on his calm face.
"Just leave."
At the moment of passing by, a cluster of flames swept up from under the long pole. The things on the priest's body were supposed to leave with the priest. Although his flesh could no longer hold on, the priest's obsession to take another look at the flames was placed on this extraordinary long pole.
"Snapped."
Under the burning flames, the long pole broke in the middle, and the top fell to the ground pointing in the direction of Lin Hun.
The flames swept up and burned everything into black ashes.
The pale ashes, wrapped in the black color, followed Lin Hun closely under the illumination of the flames until the last grain was completely consumed.
Without the orphans' resentment, the sealed "cage" in the distance began to collapse.
Even after falling into the black water, the flame still did not go out and stubbornly burned the attached runes.
The black tide flowed in from afar, combining with the calm dead water at the seaside, hitting the coast again and again.
Only by moving can vitality be created.
The long-lost sound of waves brings new vitality to the dream.
Lin Hun returned to the cave entrance. There was a thick layer of ash on the ground. Most of the villagers had disappeared. As they were on the second step closer to Kos, their burning speed was not slow.
The moment Lin Hun appeared, all the villagers bowed to him and thanked him.
Lin Hun didn't bother to care anymore since they were all leaving. They would turn into ashes soon anyway, and what's more, the two sides actually had no intersection.
The priest serves as the link between the forest souls and the villagers. When he leaves, there is no new person to take on the role of link, so they naturally become estranged from each other.
Lin Hun was quite conscientious in his work. He stood among the crowd until the last villager turned into ashes and disappeared before he continued to move forward.
More slug people without shells appeared at the entrance of the cave. They were on the third level, so the impact they received was slower than that of the villagers in front. Currently, only sporadic flames appeared on their bodies, and it seemed that it would not take long before they would start to burn.
Lin Hun's initiative accelerated the burning process. With the hunter's clothing as a cover, his information could no longer be observed. The flames had dispelled the imprint of their souls in the dream. This time the flames burned quite peacefully without any pain.
Further ahead is a huge underground tunnel, and the entrance to the beach is hollowed out directly from the ground.
Perhaps the fishing village is far above the coast, I can only say that dreams are indeed magical.
There are four iron chains evenly locked in four positions, firmly fixing a platform. There is even a wooden ladder on the side of the platform, clearly showing that you can continue to go down or up.
"It seems to be an elevator?"
Primitive and rough was Lin Hun’s first impression of the elevator.
Just by looking at it, one cannot understand the operating principle of this elevator. Even when touching it, no technical memory appears, which is a bit regrettable. However, it does not affect Lin Hun's movements. He curiously stepped on the raised part in the middle.
When it felt the gravity, the bulge in the middle sank immediately, the mechanism started to work, and the iron chain creaked, carrying the platform all the way upwards.
"If I were the maker of an elevator, I would definitely install traps all over the elevator so that I could kill anyone who comes in contact with me in mid-air."
This sophisticated mechanism contrasts sharply with the crude and simple clothes of the villagers in the fishing village. Therefore, Lin Hun does not think that the mechanism is related to the villagers in the fishing village. Then the only reason is the hunter.
Judging others by one's own experience, wouldn't a cruel hunter not do something to his own tools of passage?
Lin Hun held the shield above his head to prevent any attack from overhead while carefully observing his surroundings.
Until the elevator stopped with a "creak" sound, Lin Hun rolled out of the mechanism.
The expected sudden acceleration of the elevator upwards did not occur.
"Click." The protrusion in the middle was reset.
Lin Hun looked around carefully.
A small single room, with faint light shining through the gap in the iron gate of the fence. Although it is dim, it is not black. The whole room is furnished with nothing except a pull rod, and there is not even an enemy.
"Something's wrong! Nine out of ten things are wrong! There's no machine gun waiting here to shoot anyone they see?"
Unable to tell whether he was feeling regret or relief, Lin Hun smacked his lips and put down his arms. He felt that he seemed to have underestimated the hunter.
Lin Hun bent down and fumbled around the door, and with a "click", he successfully opened the lock in the middle of the iron door.
There was a sound of old metal friction. Dreams always follow the rules of reality in some strange places. In the humid environment, most of the iron doors have begun to rust.
A dim little lamp grew out of the ground and appeared in the middle of the cabin.
"Strange," it was indeed strange to see a small lamp in an empty room. Most people would try to run as far away as possible when faced with this situation, but Lin Hun felt his hands itching and wanted to touch it.
If you want to touch it, just touch it. Can a small lamp cut off my hand?
As soon as Lin Hun’s fingertips lit the lantern, he felt a familiar sticky substance invisibly wrapping around the surface of the lantern.
"Kos!?"
Lin Hun raised his eyebrows and instantly withdrew his hand. He had already gained enough information just now.
“This is the connection channel to the dream world.”
Lin Hun concluded with certainty that these small lights were like nodes on a spider web, connecting dreams in series. They were for hunters in dreams, and as long as the power of the "moon" inside was triggered, the hunter's consciousness could travel through different dreams.
Lin Hun felt the power of the "moon" in the deepest part of the lantern, but the power of Kos on the outermost side locked the lantern tightly, removing it from the network and turning it into an isolated island, isolating it from the lantern outside and allowing people to enter but not exit.
Although it was possible to break down Kos's barrier, Lin Hun did not try to attract the "Moon". He did not want Kos or the "Moon" to be aware of his movements.
But this is Kos's territory after all. He will naturally find that his energy has been touched. A sticky feeling gradually appears in the space beside him and slowly overflows to the outside world.
"It's okay Kos, I just touched it out of curiosity."
After Lin Hun finished speaking, the sticky feeling quickly disappeared.
"It seems that if we leave Coast Kos, there will be an extra barrier to directly observing and influencing the outside world. This is good news."
Without the risk of being monitored, Lin Hun could finally hum a little tune happily.
Now let’s go and take a look at the situation in the fishing village. Lin Hun decided to send all the villagers away and then he could leave.
Since Lin Hun was wearing hunter-style clothing at the moment, he knew clearly that the exploration process would definitely be bloody, but that didn't matter, he was not afraid of it.
Moreover, he did not intend to let them suffer too much. After all, they were a bunch of blind and pitiful people, and it would be great if they could get rid of the nightmare as soon as possible.
As soon as Lin Hun went out, he was shocked to see a headless corpse with its legs tied together and its arms bent outward 120 degrees, hanging upside down on a horizontal bar between the houses above the road.
"Rune!"
Lin Hun didn't expect that he would encounter a new rune as soon as he came out. It was a rune placed by people, and the meaning contained in it was very simple - hunter.
"They can use such bloody means to use human bodies to form runes. It seems that what the priest said is right. This group of hunters must have gone crazy."
Flames suddenly ignited a fire out of nowhere and burned the poor man's body.
Lin Hun continued to move forward, and of course he met many hospitable villagers along the way.
