626 Situation (1/2)

Outside of Kotori City.

Currently, there was another area filled with makeshift shacks, like a refugee camp, on the outside of the original city's walls.

This was a region that was formed and inhabited by the retreating Demon Hunters from the north, their families, and their subordinates.

The huge success of Sacred Spear, and the accumulated prestige of the headquarters over the years had long planted a seed deep into the conscience of their minds.

That before the world was destroyed, the safest place would be where the headquarters was.

Different types of members brought their families over even though the whole Kotori City couldn't endure such a heavy burden.

Luckily, Demon Hunters were all independent people who earned their own money. They were able to quickly find a way to survive.

The housing within the city has all been occupied? No problem, as long as tents could be set up right outside the city.

As for the dirt and chaos?

Sorry, but in this generation, most of the residential areas were all generally like this.

Even though the gathering of Demon Hunters had put a lot of pressure on the safety of the locals, as the power was dominated by sheer numbers, the Demon Hunters still felt safe.

Unfortunately, this feeling of safety was like a bubble to Fang Yuan. Once it was lightly poked at, it would burst.

”This place is a mess. Only by relying on my own strength, will there be true safety.”

Fang Yuan was holding onto an illegible map. He had squeezed into the city and was finding his way around for half a day in the residential area before finally finding the address that Jock had left for him.

”Although I know that it's to save money on rent—to move to this remote area…”

He was slightly speechless and went forward to knock on the door.

”Hulk! You're finally back.”

The one that opened the door was Aunt Sophia. Her eyes reddened instantly when she saw Fang Yuan.

”Why didn't you tell me that something happened?” The atmosphere made Fang Yuan frown.

”What? Hulk, didn't you come because you received the note that we asked someone to send over?”

Aunt Sophia hit her own forehead lightly.

”That d*mn messenger dispatch speed… Never mind, what happened exactly?”

Fang Yuan felt that he had coincidentally missed it, but due to his sensitive, sudden urge, he had probably arrived a little earlier than they had predicted.

”It's Almon—something happened to her!”

Aunt Sophia didn't hide her worried face as she brought Fang Yuan to a room. ”Look.”

Fang Yuan pushed open the door and saw Peter first.

This kid had completely removed the restriction on his right hand. He looked like a famished wolf that was protecting his own territory and might pounce at any moment.

Of course, he calmed down when he saw that it was Fang Yuan.

”You didn't tell me that this kid was a monster!” Mary said angrily. It looked like an unfortunate incident happened between Peter and her. ”If it wasn't for Father, who didn't allow me to tell anyone, countless Demon Hunters would've chopped him up into meat jam if I shouted even once. Hmph!”

Unfortunately, her threat didn't even make Peter frown. He looked at the woman lying on the bed.

”Almon…”

Fang Yuan moved a step forward.

He saw that the young and bright female robber was deeply unconscious. Her brows were tightly knitted together, and her breaths were quick. No matter how one looked at it, it was as if something bad had happened.

Peter stared at Fang Yuan and said slowly, ”Uncle Jock has already gone out to find a doctor.”

”Why did she become like this?” Fang Yuan's eyes emitted a golden glow, his expression strange.

This Almon didn't look like she was attacked by an Evil Demon's scheme. Instead, it looked more like… her blood had awakened?

Although she had Evil Demon's blood in her body, it was always recessive. However, it began to awaken after she met with an unknown trigger.

To a normal person, this was both a good and bad thing.

Once she overcomes it, she'll become a true Master's descendant and would have a huge increase in her strength.

Of course, it was also a dangerous process when the blood awakened. It was accompanied by the invasion of a chaotic will. If Almon couldn't overcome it, she could degenerate into a demon!

”However, even I had only just gotten the confidence in triggering the blood in her body. How did this happen so suddenly?” Fang Yuan murmured to himself and looked at Peter. ”Before this happened, did any abnormal incidents occur? For example, did she come into contact with a strange object or person?”

”Yes!”

Peter thought for a while and replied softly, ”Sister met a purple-eyed man at the market. She looked afraid and went down with a fever after coming back…”

”A purple-eyed man?”

Fang Yuan looked at Peter and saw that he also quivered when he mentioned the other party. He could somewhat guess what happened.

There weren't many natural suppressive existences that that even a Voodoo Corpse would be afraid of in the Night Family Clans.

”The process of demonization has begun. It's not a problem of whether I want to experiment on her… but if I don't proceed, then Almon has a 50/50 chance of becoming a monster! Moreover, a very problematic issue is that this is Kotori, which isn't far away from Sacred Mountain!”

He moved forward and partially removed the blanket.

Immediately, he could see purple patterns on the underside of Almon's neck.

A weak type of presence belonging to an Evil Demon was gradually emitted and was becoming more and more concentrated.

”She must be moved immediately. It didn't matter if I performed my experiment, or if she degenerated, the terrifying presence of an Evil Demon would be released… I don't want to become enemies with the Demon Hunters!”

Fang Yuan solemnly came up with a conclusion.
