Chapter 133 Half-Tree Man
Two days later, Camus and his companions walked out of the airship. The heat waves from the airship blew up their clothes. Looking at the crowded crowd in front of him, Camus raised his eyebrows.
"Finally, we are here. Is this the airship platform of Autumn City? It seems to be no different from Caldecott City."
Susie tossed the bag of gold coins in her hand and handed it to Camus, "This is the reward given to you by Harmon. He is in a very decadent state. If he continues like this, he will definitely mutate. There are very few extraordinary people like him."
Camus sneered, "A puppet master who likes to use human skin as material, you tell me he is good? Just be yourself. Pity should not be reflected on us. We are all weak."
After speaking, Camus raised the purse and showed a satisfied expression, "It seems to be quite a lot, about more than 30 gold coins, so it's not too bad."
Laura looked at the city in the distance, her ears full of spells, and moved, "Let's go, find Hei."
Camus also looked at the endless green on the edge of the sky and touched his chin. "Is that the Autumn Forest? It looks so big."
A group of people followed Laura to the outside of the ninth district of Autumn City. The various races along the way opened Camus' eyes, including Spiderman, Night Rabbit, and Snakeman.
"The Autumn Forest belongs to the tree people. Most of the races here rely on the Autumn Forest for survival." Susie looked at the tall Night Rabbit and saw the characteristics of this place.
As the few people entered Autumn City, a scent of flowers and plants came to their faces. The entire urban area of Autumn City was shrouded in plants. There was little black smoke from factories here, and the faces of the citizens were filled with satisfaction. Looking at the neat flowers and plants on the roadside and the plants on the wall, Camus spread his hands.
"Maybe this is where life should live. There are too many factory exhaust gases in Kadic City. What do you think?"
"Autumn Forest is surrounded by plains. The factories here are all outside the city, so you can't see many factories. To the east is Pio Port, to the south is the Ninth District and the Airport, to the west is the industrial area, and to the north is the living area and Autumn Forest. We just left the South District and entered the city. Um... this is near Youlin Street." Susie slowly told the layout here.
"Have you looked at the map?" Camus said in surprise.
"Yes, isn't there a map in Harmon's lounge on the airship? Didn't you notice it?"
Camus was silent when he heard it, "How long did you look at it?"
"Ten seconds, this time is enough for me to remember the map of Autumn City." The corners of the mouths of several people twitched when they heard it. What kind of monster is this?
"Laura, do you have Hei's contact information?" Camus looked at the busy flow of people and spoke lightly.
Laura nodded and took out a ghost doll from her arms. Seeing this doll, Camus' eyes flashed, as if he had a ghost doll himself.
"Find a quiet place. This ghost doll will lead us to Hei."
A group of people walked silently into the deep alley, and then blocked the exit to prevent anyone from coming in. Laura watched the doll take out a crystal bottle from her arms and drip a drop of blood on it.
As the blood was absorbed by the doll, the angry ghost doll suddenly twisted its body, and a black smoke came out of it. It twisted its neck and looked at Laura with empty eyes.
"Tell me the location of the owner of the blood, the 'road messenger' and 'guide' of the underworld." Laura opened her five fingers and grabbed the doll's face, pinching the struggling ghost and putting it to her ear.
"Hualin Road,... No. 11,... Dangerous." The ghost gave Laura a hoarse answer. His voice was like the sound of glass scratching, which made people extremely uncomfortable.
Hearing the ghost doll's answer, Laura tore open the ghost doll's mouth, grabbed its head and twisted it. With the sound of clothes tearing, the black cotton core fell to the ground. The ghost doll screamed, and the black smoke on its body disappeared.
Looking at the rag doll broken into two pieces on the ground, Camus frowned. Should I use it like this?
"The body of the ghost doll seals the 'road envoy' of the underworld. According to the 'black magic rules', it must be destroyed after use, so that the 'road envoy' can return to the underworld." Laura looked at the black cotton on the ground and said lightly.
"What if it is not destroyed?" Camus asked curiously.
"Sequence one gravekeepers are not sequence four. They cannot 'resurrect' a lifeless thing, so this doll is just a carrier to convey Black's words. If you don't destroy it, the 'road envoy' will find a living life and snatch the other's body."
Camus pinched his fingers, "I heard it say 'danger', do I need to predict it?"
Laura shook her head, "Since Black has time to answer questions, it means that the situation is not that serious. Let's rush over."
Camus nodded to the people behind him, "Let's go, No. 11 Hualin Road." A group of people rushed to No. 11 Hualin Road in a hurry.
House 11 on Birch Forest Road, broken furniture and plants emerging from the ground tell of the great battle here. Hei looked palely at several half-tree people not far away. Their bodies were covered with rough woody skin, and their dark green triangular eyes were full of cruelty. Withered yellow fingers, they were directing thorns to pull at Hei. They looked at Hei, whose magic power was almost exhausted, and showed their black fangs.
"Gravekeeper, just be the food of the three of us brothers. Cat meat is the most delicious."
"Wow... Look at a dying cat man, and he's a garbage like Sequence One. What if his body is smelly?"
"Brother Kaenni, we often eat smelly meat, and it's still delicious."
Hearing the three of them discussing how to eat him, Hei's cat ears moved. He was in a hurry to get on the road, so he didn't bring those troublesome slaves. In addition to their racial talents, these three guys were also extremely troublesome Sequence Eights. Ordinary magic couldn't hurt them at all.
"Half-tree people, three mixed-blood hybrids, don't forget that this is a living area." Hei also knew that Camus and others had arrived in Autumn City. If he delayed any longer, these three pieces of trash would die.
"Brother, hurry up, the people from the Church of the Sun will be here soon. Don't forget that we are still wanted criminals. Kill him quickly." The youngest tree man looked around and urged anxiously.
The older tree man stroked his brother's hair with his yellow fingers, "This is the edge of the living area. No one lives here. The Sun Cult won't come. Eat him and we'll go back."
"Ah..." He roared at Hei, and his huge body rushed towards Hei. His huge body tore the furniture like a dead tree. Hei dodged the whipped cane in a panic. He saw the half-tree man rushing towards him, and his face turned cold. Beautiful black lines and patterns appeared in the corner of his eyes and spread to his face. A purple-black magic power emanated from the pattern.
"Bang..." Just when Hei was about to give these three guys a hard time, a gunshot that tore the sky came from the outside of the room, and a huge red light hit the running tree man with lightning speed.
"Ah... It hurts, it hurts, damn cat man." The chest of the tree man was torn by the bullet, and the huge force knocked him to the ground. A big hole appeared on his body, and there was a bright red flame on the wound. The dark green blood sizzled in the scorching flame.
Seeing that he had hit, Casca snapped his fingers at several people, "How can I be so handsome? That guy is useless. The power of the explosive bullet is not bad."
Looking at the complacent Casca, Camus twitched his mouth, "It seems that there are two more. If you don't shoot, Hei will be beaten up."
