Chapter 558: "Monster Encyclopedia"

Chapter 558 "Monster Encyclopedia" (ask for monthly tickets at the beginning of the month) Lugano didn't react until the three homeless men pointed their guns at him. As a fairly experienced bounty hunter, he didn't bother to figure out where the enemy was going to shoot. He pushed hard with his feet and lunged forward. Amid the gunshots, he dodged two bullets, but there was no way to avoid the remaining one because it was too close and its route was covered. Lugano was hanging in mid-air and did a strange thing. He actually stretched his body on his own initiative instead of curling up to protect his vital parts, and only used his palms to protect his chest. boom! The bullet hit his right rib, splashing bright blood. With a thud, Lugano fell to the ground on the street and immediately rolled forward, trying to avoid subsequent shooting. As he was about to lunge forward, Lumian's body instantly grew out from the shadows on the side of the road and punched one of the homeless men who had just pulled the trigger. With a bang, the homeless man's eyes rolled back and he fainted. Lumian immediately returned to the shadows, quickly swam behind another homeless man, and punched him behind the ear before he could fire a second shot.

As the homeless man fell to the ground, Lugano dodged a second bullet fired by the remaining attacker. At this time, passers-by and old ladies chatting on the street fled and frantically looked for cover, and the surrounding area was suddenly cleared. Shadows floated, and Lumian stepped out of the darkness from the side of the last attacker, stretched out his right palm, and directly grasped the opponent's neck. Almost at the same time, the attacker's mouth opened naturally, and a long black shadow spurted out. It was an insect as thick as a finger, with tentacle-like hairs floating on its body. It went straight for Lumian's neck. "Humph!" Two pale white lights flashed in Lumian's nose, and the slender and strange black insect suddenly lost its strength and fell softly into his raised left palm. As expected...Lumian withdrew his right hand from the homeless man's neck without being too surprised. The whites of the tramp's eyes returned to normal. He retreated blankly with the pistol in his hand, leaned against the wall, and slid weakly to the ground. Lumian ignored him and used the shadows to quickly come to the unconscious homeless man. He saw a small, bloodless wound behind his cervical vertebrae. Another slender, black, bristly insect jumped out and tried to escape, but was caught by Lumian's palm, which was burning with red and white flames. It only struggled a few times before it gave off a cooked aroma. Next, Lumian used a similar method to deal with the strange black bugs that had crawled out of another homeless man's body. During this process, Lugano half-crouched on the side of the street, his left palm flashing with a bright light as he pressed it on the gunshot wound on his right rib. The hideous wound that smelled a bit like burnt suddenly shrank and no longer bleeds profusely. Then, Lugano pulled out a dagger and accurately and efficiently "picked" a yellow bullet out of the wound. After doing this, he made his left palm glow again and pressed the wound. The wound squirmed and quickly merged, soon becoming only one-fifth of its original size. Lugano stretched his body voluntarily just now, hoping that the bullet would hit a place that would be convenient for him to deal with! As he took out a bandage and prepared to bandage the remaining wound, Lumian walked up to him and spread out his empty right palm.

Lugano understood what his employer meant, and while returning the "lie" ear clip to him, he said thankfully: "Luckily I'm a 'doctor'. As long as you're not killed on the spot, gunshot wounds aren't a big deal." Lumian silently put on the silver-white "lie" ear clip, leaned down, pressed and rubbed the wound on Lugano, and transferred it to the back of the other's right hand. Because of the different location and structure, and because of Lugano's prior treatment, the wound degenerated into a small scratch like a rough wall. "..." Lugano looked at the wound that didn't even need bandaging and fell into a long silence. Lumian then smiled and said: "Why else do you think I let you carry 'lies'?" “……” Lugano opened his mouth, still not knowing what to say. Lumian looked around and gave a direct order: “Take the guns from those three homeless guys, wait for the police to come, and tell them you’ve been attacked. "After recording the confession, if there is nothing else, take Ludwig to the gate of the Abbey of Plenty and let them help you to seek justice and maintain order in Santa Port." "Okay, okay." Lugano stood up hurriedly. He had just taken two steps towards the dazed homeless man when he suddenly came to his senses, half turned around, and blurted out: "What about you, where are you going?" In his haste, he forgot to use honorifics. Lumian smiled but did not respond. I asked you to go to the Convent of Plenty to tell them what I want to do and inform them! Lumian then walked towards the Solo Hotel. The ground behind him was ablaze with red flames, burning Lugano's dripping blood. On the way, Lumian lowered his voice and said: "Thermopylae, do you recognize this kind of insect?" Thermopylae did not respond. Back in the suite on the fifth floor, Lumian saw Ludwig coming up to him with an eager look on his face. With a thought in mind, he spread out his left palm, revealing three black insects, one alive and two burnt, and asked casually: "Do you know what this is?" Ludwig nodded obediently and said very quickly: "The Batins black worms are a species of creatures from the planet Hewen 3. They are rich in various proteins and have high energy levels. They like to invade humans' bodies from the cervical vertebrae, control their nervous systems, and manipulate them into doing things that benefit them. “These three Batins black worms stopped evolving many generations ago, and when they manipulate their nervous systems, they show obvious signs of stiff movements and rolling eyes. “Batines rarely kill their hosts directly, but after they finish laying eggs, the growth of their larvae will absorb the host’s energy, indirectly leading to the host’s death. “In ancient times, many of their ancestors received gifts. Although their descendants no longer possess the gifted abilities, their body structures that changed to adapt to the power of the gift were passed on to them. After a long period of evolution, this special species with a small number of extraordinary abilities was born. "You can understand it as a special spiritual creature or a degenerated supernatural creature." After a lot of chatter, Ludwig looked at Lumian eagerly and said: “I’ve finished answering. "Can I eat it now?" You really know... You speak as if it were real, the Batins black bug, the planet Hewein 3, what the hell is this... The alien planet Aurore was talking about? Lumian was stunned.

He was not surprised at all that Ludwig wanted to eat the Batins black bug. This guy can even chew a live mouse! And this insect smells pretty good after being roasted. Lumian stared at Ludwig for a few seconds, then handed over the three Batins black bugs in his hand. Ludwig did not hide his happiness, he stuffed the two roasted strips directly into his mouth, biting into them and feeling the wonderful sensation of the juice exploding and splashing in his mouth. He half closed his eyes, and there seemed to be some strange fluctuations in his body. Lumian frowned in confusion but did nothing to stop them. After using the "secret glasses" to discover that there seemed to be something else under Ludwig's skin, combined with his daily behavior and the attitude of the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" Church, he guessed that the little boy was a monster in human skin, but was sealed by the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" Church, and used him to do things that were inconvenient to send clergy to do. The "Reader" approach mastered by the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom has a large number of applications at the mental and physical levels. It is easy to understand why Ludwig became stupid and mentally damaged after being sealed. After twenty or thirty seconds, Ludwig opened his eyes, turned around and ran to the dining table, picked up a small steel knife, placed the remaining black bug on the tablecloth, skillfully cut it open, and removed a lot of black fascia. Then, Ludwig poured a glass of Manzan wine, put the fascia together with the shell of the Batinus black worm into it, and added the black juice squeezed out of the worm body. Lumian saw that the light golden wine quickly turned dark red and almost black, and dense bubbles appeared. When the bubbles subsided, Ludwig picked up the strange "cocktail". It was only then that he seemed to remember Lumian's existence, and he stammered: "Can I have a drink?" The mind body is indeed sealed... Lumian sighed with a smile: "Drink." Gulping, Ludwig drank the little amount of dark red wine and said to Lumian with a satisfied look: "The prepared Batins black worm fluid can strengthen the physique of the first-time drinker to a certain extent, and allow all drinkers to have the ability to paralyze primates within two hours. Yes, it must be done through contact." This, this is to make the Batins black bug into something similar to a talisman? And it has permanent effects and short-term extraordinary abilities... Lumian was surprised and felt that Ludwig had changed a lot. He had never shown the ability to make food like this before! Lumian didn't ask any more questions, and said calmly: "Take Lugano to the gate of the Abbey of Plenty and watch him tell Noelia about the attack he encountered." "Okay." Ludwig was in a very good mood and agreed readily. ………… The port area when Ludwig and Lugano arrived at the Convent of the Abundance. Wearing a golden straw hat, Lumian walked to the square with the statue of a wave and cast his eyes towards the gray-black house with the sign of "Santa Port Fisheries Guild". This four or five-story, castle-like ancient building is said to have a history of thousands of years. It was later destroyed and rebuilt hundreds of years ago. Lumian scanned the complex symbols on the wall that consisted of "iron hook" and "fishing net" several times, then he adjusted the straw hat on his head and walked towards the Fisheries Guild.
