Chapter 56 Hunting the Elementalist (please read)
"Have you ever seen the Dark Suture kill someone with your own eyes?"
"..." The militia captain was silent, speechless.
"How long did the battle between the Dark Suture and the Retired Warrior last?"
The militia captain thought for a moment: "About three minutes."
"Did the two of them get injured in the fight? Or, when collecting the bodies, did you see other wounds other than gunshot wounds on the soldier's body?"
"...No." The militiaman felt his throat dry up, and there was even a pain in his throat when he said these two words.
The light elementalist had a smile on his lips: "That's strange. The two of them were not injured in the fierce battle, but they broke through the fountain square guarded by the suture body and directly confronted the bandits. Isn't it counter-intuitive?"
There was a trace of panic in the militia captain's eyes because he could not explain this situation.
But the more unexplainable it is, the closer the truth is to the elementalist's suspicion.
The saddest thing is that they can't provide proof.
"At that time, we were escorting residents to hide in the mountains and did not see the specific fighting situation. Maybe something happened that we didn't know about."
The light elementalist sneered: "Don't you think your statement is inconsistent?"
Although the elementalists have never seen Li Ang with their own eyes, the brutality of killing thirty people by one person can be felt even through the walkie-talkie.
There is something fishy about such a dark stitched body, but no one was hurt in Xiyuan Town.
The battle with the reclusive warrior is more like a tacit understanding.
Even the surviving residents of the city were speechless and couldn't find any explanation.
Even though my mind kept recalling that terrifying night of blood moon and black rain, all I could think of was the terrifying and ferocious face and figure of the Suture Body. I searched my memory but could not find any images of the Suture Body killing the residents.
While the militia captain was silent, a soldier from the Monroe Guard trotted over.
"Report, we found a clue! We found an abandoned cellar in the town. There were traces of life in it. We found three footprints and bread crumbs. Two of the footprints were of a little girl and a dog, and the other one was that of a little girl and a dog.
It's very big, I guess he's at least 1.9 meters tall."
Needless to say, the little girl must be the one who unleashed the black tide of terror.
As for that dog, it was the one trying to intercept the elementalist team in the corridor.
Needless to say, the remaining large footprints were naturally made of sutures.
The light element raised the corners of his mouth, and then looked at the militia captain and the old, weak, women and children present, with a sharp look in his eyes.
Leaning forward slightly, the Light Elementalist said condescendingly: "Captain, the current investigation situation seems to be somewhat different from what you said..."
The militia captain's mind went blank. Is the suture body really hiding in the town?
The light elementalist stood up and took a long breath.
With evidence, it will be easier to handle. Although this mission was full of surprises, in the end, we still gained something, enough to go back and submit the mission.
He waved his hand gently and said: "The Blackstone Federation has always regarded dark creatures as its enemies. You actually harbor dark creatures and break the law knowingly..."
The elementalist glanced at the old, weak, women, children... and children, with a flash of hesitation in his eyes, and said: "Capture all the adults!"
The militia captain's pupils shrank suddenly, and the "soil-bound" militiamen were also furious.
Taking away the adults and leaving only the children, what is the difference between this and murder!
"I did this alone and it has nothing to do with them!" the militia captain struggled and yelled.
There was no emotion in the eyes of the elementalist, and he was even more amused by the words and actions of the militia captain from the beginning of the siege.
But now they have found conclusive evidence and can close the team.
As for the life and death of other people...that is not their consideration.
Everyone was escorted by soldiers and forcibly separated from the children.
The whole fountain square was filled with the heartbreaking cries of children.
At this moment, a boy ran up to the soldier and blocked the way with his hand.
"It's none of their business! It's me. I'm the one who sent the food to the Suture Body. When they left overnight, I was the one who sent them away. If you want to arrest them, arrest me!"
The boy's eyes were filled with tears, but there was still a hint of perseverance in the crystal.
"Oh? It turns out there is someone who knows about it." A bright light flashed in the eyes of the light element.
"Aren't you afraid of meeting that kind of monster?"
"When he invaded the town, he discovered me, but instead of harming me, he provided me with cover. He fled to the town, so naturally I wanted to repay the favor and help him cover."
"Actually, Uncle Jock doesn't know Li Ang at all. They don't even know that Li Ang is hiding in the cellar."
After blurting out the name "Leon", the elementalist looked at the child differently.
He really knows!
…
"Finally caught up."
The distorted space with rising water vapor gradually became clearer, and Xiyuan Town appeared in front of Li Ang for the first time during the day.
Looking at the huge burnt deer at the city gate and the traces left by the wind blade on the high stone bell tower, it was like experiencing an elemental siege.
The militiamen could no longer be seen at the head and tail of the city.
Li Ang's speed gradually slowed down, and the flying gravel and dust behind him also dissipated.
"Pompeii, I will take you to the cellar first, and you stay with Alice."
Li Ang did not say the second half of the sentence, because the current tough battle will be the most difficult one since Li Ang traveled through time.
Pompeii nodded seriously: "Okay, be careful!"
He has seen the power of the elementalist and knows that there is not much room for him to participate in this kind of situation. All he can do is to protect Alice and not cause trouble to Li Ang.
However, when the three of them sneaked in quietly, they found that the original cellar was wide open and there was a soldier guarding the door.
Li Ang and Pompei exchanged a look, and there was definitely no way to hide in the cellar now.
Placing Alice carefully on Pompeii's back, Leon quietly sneaked into the shadows and approached the cellar.
The tentacles wrapped around the soldier's neck, mouth and nose with lightning speed.
The stinging cells pierced the skin with nerve-paralyzing venom, and the soldier's neck, which was originally tense, immediately became relaxed.
Click.
With a sound as gentle as rolling stones, Li Ang's neck was broken and he lost his breath.
After removing the soldier's gun, Li Ang re-entered the shadows.
In the shadows, Li Ang happened to see the soldiers escorting the militiamen and adults of Xiyuan Town and lining up to the city. The children were helpless and crying on the side.
In just the next second, Li Ang saw a figure at the forefront of the team, being escorted, that only reached his waist.
Surprisingly, it was the child who secretly provided them with food and fresh water in Xiyuan Town.
Combined with the fact that the cellar was pried open and discovered, a fact suddenly appeared before us——
This group of elementalists discovered that he was hiding in Xiyuan Town!
There was no blood, which was a blessing among misfortunes.
'Ander failed to capture me, are you planning to find a group of scapegoats to go back and deal with...'
Li Ang saw through their thoughts at a glance.
If you have to get on the truck...
Li Ang narrowed his eyes slightly, flashing a hint of murderous intent.
Now, the hunt for elementalists officially begins!
Chapter completed!
