Chapter 2674
2674 The despairing demon fighter Captain (1)
The bright moon hung high in the sky, and a carriage was traveling on the road.
The silver-haired man sat in the car, his body swaying slightly. He was resting with his eyes closed.
It was another busy day.
Capturing illegal believers and dealing with all kinds of suspected descender cases, the daily tasks of the demon slayers were always boring and busy.
They also had to face all kinds of dangers, whether it was the believers who believed in evil gods or the chaotic descenders, all of them were lunatics who didn’t care about their lives.
If he was not careful, he could lose his life.
Although it was tiring and troublesome, the members of the demon subduing troop had special privileges. Moreover, they were part of the royal guards, which was a decent job that countless people envied.
Many noble children would try their best to get a job in the demon subduing troop, even if it would put them in danger.
The silver-haired man was the captain of the small team. He managed ten team members and was responsible for managing five blocks. He had a certain amount of power.
After concluding today’s work, the figure of the suspect named Hawk suddenly appeared in the silver-haired man’s mind.
When he was investigating earlier, the ghost spirit that he had contracted with had already sniffed the air, but it didn’t discover any aura of the void.
It was for this reason that the silver-haired man ruled out the possibility that Hawk was a descender, or that he had been in contact with a similar existence.
However, after they left, the other party killed the landlord cruelly and then disappeared without a trace.
The silver-haired man, who had left the rented apartment not long ago, could only return to the apartment, but unfortunately, he didn’t find anything.
The silver-haired man had checked the body of the unlucky landlord and confirmed that he had been stabbed in the heart by a dagger.
Through a method similar to mediumship, he summoned the dead landlord’s soul, but he did not get much useful information.
On the other hand, the patrol Leader who had killed his uncle was already in custody and would probably be imprisoned.
Unless he had enough money to persuade the Grand justice to reduce his sentence, he would spend the rest of his life on a deserted island.
The silver-haired man didn’t care about these things. He was just very curious about the young suspect’s terrifying power.
With just one punch, he was able to cripple a landlord who had once practiced martial arts. This was definitely not a strange strength that an ordinary person could possess.
But the problem was that the young suspect didn’t show any signs of abnormality during the first investigation. How did he do that?
The silver-haired man really wanted to capture the other party. Other than the fact that the other party was a descender, he also had a huge sum of money on him.
Even for the silver-haired man, this was a huge sum of money. It was enough to pay for a long time.
He was the son of a noble, but he had no right to inherit, and he was not as rich as others thought.
While he was trying to figure out where the suspect was hiding, the carriage suddenly stopped, which surprised the silver-haired young man.
Following which, an aura that made one’s heart palpitate began to spread from the surroundings, as if one was in an ice cave.
As the captain of the demon subduing troop, the silver-haired young man was no stranger to this kind of situation, so he quickly regained his composure.
Stepping down from the carriage, he saw that the surroundings were filled with black-gray fog, and the long Street had become silent.
He could only see the dim yellow street lights, which flickered with a weak light, but they could not dispel the pressure brought by the darkness at all.
In the distant fog, there were unknown figures wandering around. In the sky above their heads, it seemed as if something was peeping.
A series of footsteps could be heard, followed by a slightly thin figure slowly walking out from the darkness.
He walked slowly and quickly towards the silver-haired young man, until he was less than five meters away from him.
A distance of less than ten meters was very suitable for shooting with a pistol.
The silver-haired young man had already pulled out his gun. He was ready to shoot at any time.
The bullets of the pistol had been specially processed and engraved with special runes. As long as the other party was related to a descender, they would definitely suffer serious damage.
As for the principle behind this, the silver-haired young man was not very clear. He only knew that his weapon could hurt the enemy.
Although the light was very dim, the silver-haired young man still recognized the man. He was the suspect named Hawk in the rented apartment.
“You really have a problem!”
The silver-haired young man said in a cold voice. At the same time, he was very curious as to what kind of method the other party had used to hide from the ghost Spirit’s perception.
In addition, he was also a little excited. As long as he could capture the other party, he would be able to obtain the huge sum of money that the other party was carrying.
As long as he didn’t spread the news, no one would know about this matter, and he would be able to monopolize all the benefits.
After thinking up to this point, the silver-haired young man immediately controlled his ghost spirit and quietly sneaked around from behind.
He would attract the attention of the suspect in front of him, and then the ghost spirit would launch a sneak attack. He would then grab the opportunity and kill the enemy with a single shot!
The silver-haired young man was so confident because he did not sense any dangerous aura from the enemy.
However, he had forgotten that he had not found anything out of the ordinary when he had inspected the rented apartment.
Before the silver-haired young man took action, the suspect named Hawk suddenly raised his head and showed a strange smile.
“If I’m not wrong, you’re planning to plot against me?”
Before he could finish, Hawk suddenly reached out to the side, and then a scream came.
He pulled the ghost spirit out of the dark World, and under the terrified gaze of the silver-haired young man, he swallowed the ghost spirit in one gulp.
“You bastard! I’m going to kill you!”
The silver-haired young man was both shocked and angry. He was shocked that the other party could actually devour ghost spirits, and angry that the ghost spirits were extremely precious and hard to obtain even for the children of aristocrats.
It was precisely because of the help of the ghost spirit that he had obtained his current status. Otherwise, he would have only been an ordinary member of the team.
If the ghost spirit was devoured, its future would be ruined. It would be bad if the silver-haired young man wasn’t angry.
He didn’t care what the other party’s background was. So what if he was a descender? unless he obtained the support of his main body, a descender wouldn’t be that strong at the beginning.
As the gunshot rang out, six bullets were fired in a very short time, heading straight for the suspect opposite.
The six bullets were shot very carefully, almost sealing off all the escape routes of the suspect. Whether he moved or stayed in place, he would be hit by the runic bullets.
At the same time, a heavy rune sword was unsheathed. Although it was less than an inch wide, it weighed 20 kilograms.
Every member of the demon subduing troop had to use a heavy sword, which was their special standard weapon.
One of the tests to join the demon subduing troop was to complete a hundred standard slashes with one hand in a row within a set time.
It might sound easy, but to an ordinary person, it was a very difficult thing.
Although most of the members of the demon subduing troop were nobles, they were by no means good-for-nothings. Compared to ordinary people, the comprehensive quality of the children of nobles was obviously higher.
To the silver-haired youth’s surprise, the suspect pulled out something like a knife and blocked the bullet that was aimed at his heart.
He didn’t even try to Dodge, instead, he reached out his hand and grabbed the incoming heavy sword.
“Idiot!”
The silver-haired youth’s heart flashed with a trace of contempt. It was said that descenders would be muddleheaded in the early stages, and now it seemed that it was true.
It was just a body of flesh and blood, yet it tried to reach out to grab his rune heavy sword. Was it not afraid of being cut in half?
This wasn’t the true form of a descender that wasn’t afraid of ordinary swords.
However, the silver-haired man realized that he was wrong in the next second.
The other party actually managed to grab the rune heavy sword and used a speed faster than his own to guide the rune heavy sword to dissipate the power of the slash.
The sword that was supposed to kill him became soft and powerless. The knife flew over and landed on the silver-haired young man’s head.
Under the silver-haired young man’s terrified and desperate eyes, the suspect reached out his finger, which turned into a snake-like thing and burrowed into his mouth.
His thoughts became slower and slower, and everything that belonged to him seemed to be rapidly being pulled away.
“This descender doesn’t seem to be ordinary.”
A thought flashed through the silver-haired young man’s mind, and then he fell into complete darkness.
