Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 20 The Lost Cemetery

"I feel like I've dug a hole for myself." Sun Hang turned off the TV. "Is this matter... urgent?"

"It's extremely urgent." Yang Qi said, "More than three-quarters of Tianfu City's management staff participated in the flower-laying ceremony, not to mention the representatives of the Federal Parliament... If they are missing for more than 48 hours, the entire Tianfu City will fall into chaos."

"Since the matter is so serious, didn't the Federation send anyone over?" Sun Hang asked, "For a newly hired hunter like me to take on this important task... isn't it a bit ridiculous?"

"You are the only hunter in Tianfu City who can be dispatched right now." Yang Qi said, "The plane carrying the reinforcements has taken off and will arrive in about six hours... But no one can predict what will happen in six hours. We must race against time."

"…Then what can I do? I am no different from an ordinary person now. Even if you give me six hours, I won't be able to find those missing people."

"That's not necessarily true. You saw scenes on TV that shouldn't have appeared, which means you resonate with the monster... Once you arrive at the scene, this resonance will become stronger, and this is where we break the deadlock," said Yang Qi.

"Okay...but I can't guarantee that once we get there, your so-called 'resonance' will still appear."

"Let's talk about it when we get there!"

The two walked out of the villa, and Yang Qi took out a large black luggage bag from the back of the SUV and threw it to Sun Hang.

The bag was heavy, and the contents inside collided with each other, making a unique metallic sound.

"I'm not sure which of the equipment I prepared for you will be useful, so I just randomly picked some." Yang Qi said, "You should have chosen these things yourself, but time doesn't allow it."

Sun Hang unzipped the bag, revealing a complete set of top-of-the-line tactical gear, two carbines equipped with various expensive equipment, several special magazines with different labels, and a small titanium alloy box containing six disposable syringes.

"The box contains drugs developed by the Weird Research Institute. The three yellow ones are enhanced stimulants. The main ingredient is adrenaline. I don't need to explain their effects in detail, right?"

"What about the other three red ones?"

"The serum extracted and refined from the body of the monster will greatly enhance the hunter's ability after injection, but the degree of enhancement, direction of enhancement and side effects vary from person to person... It is still in the clinical trial stage. I don't recommend you use this thing unless it's absolutely necessary." Yang Qi said.

Sun Hang zipped up his luggage bag and got into the car.

Yang Qi didn't let him drive, but jumped into the driver's seat herself, stepped on the accelerator, and drifted out of the villa's gate.

The rear end of the SUV rubbed against the iron gate railing, sparks flying.

"Can you use a gun?" Yang Qi asked in the midst of his busy schedule.

"I guess I can do it." Sun Hang picked up a carbine and gestured towards an empty place outside the car window - the holographic sight is far more suitable for entry-level shooters than the machine sight that needs to lock the target with three points in a straight line. The safety switch and magazine release button on the receiver are also all thoughtfully marked with Chinese inscriptions.

"But I think that we probably won't need guns for this mission, right?"

"That's not necessarily true." Yang Qi shook her head. "It's almost night time. There are wild beasts in the cemetery in the south of the city at night..."

The SUV had not driven far when a muffled sound was heard from the roof, as if something had fallen on it.

Yang Qi's expression paused for a moment, then he opened the skylight on the roof of the car.

A slender figure climbed into the car through the sunroof.

"Ye Fury, you are not on the attack list for this operation." Yang Qi said lightly.

"I know." Wang Xiyi glanced at Sun Hang and nodded. "What do you mean?"

"Do you think a rookie hunter like him can complete this mission?"

"He resonated with the strange creature, and he saw the missing people on his TV screen." Yang Qi said, "According to my guess, the strange creature that caused this abnormal incident should be Class A or Class B, and it is not an enemy you are good at dealing with."

"So you are planning to send him to die?" Wang Xiyi said again.

"We are only responsible for the preliminary investigation mission, so the danger is not too great." Yang Qi said while driving, "Before the federal reinforcements arrive, we have to find out the situation as much as possible to save as much time as possible for subsequent operations... To be honest, I don't think that Tianfu City alone can find the missing people."

"One more or one less won't make much difference." Wang Xiyi leaned back in her chair comfortably, crossing one of her long legs. "If there are any situations that this rookie can't handle, I can still serve as your last trump card."

"But you can't enter the beast state anymore." Yang Qi frowned, "You won't be able to come back."

"If I can trade one for one with the weird creature, it won't be a loss." Wang Xiyi said nonchalantly, "It's better than watching those things cause greater damage."

"You... Fine, whatever you want!" Yang Qi said helplessly, "But I will report it to the teacher, if he..."

"I will take all the responsibilities." Wang Xiyi said.

After saying that, she stretched out her hand to Sun Hang again: "Give me the thing."

"What is it?" Sun Hang asked.

"Those three red syringes." Wang Xiyi said.

Sun Hang thought for a moment and took out two.

"I have to keep one for myself, in case I may need it," Sun Hang explained.

Wang Xiyi looked at him with some surprise and said in a deep voice, "Do you know what the consequences of injecting this thing are?"

"I don't know, but the worst that can happen is that I die." Sun Hang smiled. "If I really get into a desperate situation, I'll die anyway. It's better to have a chance to gamble than to do nothing."

"Interesting." Wang Xiyi put away the syringe, "Better than those wimps in the last batch."

……

……

Yang Qi drove the SUV at full speed, ran through more than a dozen red lights, and scratched countless private cars before finally arriving at the scene of the accident - South City Cemetery - half an hour later.

Although the Chengnan Cemetery is also located in the southern suburbs of Tianfu City, it is actually quite far from the Chengnan Development Zone that was destroyed by Bloody Mary - the Chengnan Development Zone is said to be in the south of the city, but it is actually in the southwest of Tianfu City. The Chengnan Cemetery is a little further east.

On the way here, Sun Hang had already seen photos of the South City Cemetery - the main body of the cemetery was built on a hillside at an angle of about 30 degrees. Among the lush green plants were rows of white marble tombstones. At the highest point of the hillside there was a large coniferous forest.

But now, there is only a barren hill outside the car window.
