Game: I'm a Hunter in the Blood Curse World

Van En felt himself being stared at by those scarlet eyes.

A chill seeped into his bones, making the hairs on Van En's body stand on end.

"pilot!"

He immediately drew his meat saw and assumed an offensive stance.

Chen Zhihe and Jiang Si immediately changed their expressions and pulled out their weapons.

Leslie, who was standing at the very front and about to step into the room, remained remarkably calm and made no move.

He leaned on his cane, squinted at the pair of scarlet eyes inside, and said softly:

"You went to great lengths, even risking the lives of everyone in Luting City, and now you want to stay in the shadows like a rat?"

"To be buried alive with you?" the navigator's voice rang out, deep and resonant, like that of a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Mr. Leslie, this is not about being buried alive. They should feel honored to have contributed to the sea route home."

The navigator's indifferent assessment of his misdeeds angered Leslie, Van En, Jiang Si, and Chen Zhihe.

However, since he was capable of such a thing, Van and his men didn't expect the navigator to repent, so they quickly suppressed their pointless anger and sneered at him.

The navigator's crimson eyes remained unchanged as he calmly stated:

"According to the Blood God's oracle, only one person should be able to reach this place, but unexpectedly there are four of you."

So... who wants the answer and wants to let me stretch my muscles?

The navigator's words revealed the true history that should have happened, but they made Van En laugh.

He brandished the meat saw and said to the navigator:

"Why shouldn't it be the four of us who kill you? You've done so much evil, killed so many people, and you still want a duel between knights?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Vann suddenly raised his bloodshot shotgun and fired five bloodshot bullets at the navigator in the darkness.

boom!

Snapped!

……

Five blood-based bullets struck the invisible wall, turning into a lump of putty that slid to the ground, unable to even penetrate the deep darkness.

Fan En gasped, his brows furrowing.

Leslie glanced back at the 'reckless' Vane and said admiringly:

"A decent sneak attack, but the movements were too obvious. Next time, try to be more subtle... Paying a price can better confuse the opponent."

Van En nodded.

The navigator chuckled and said in a low voice, "Is this how the supposedly elegant hunters of the William family teach their apprentices?"

Leslie stared at the navigator with a tense expression, saying nothing.

But the meaning is already quite clear:

How dare you, a scumbag like you, say such a thing? Using even the most despicable means against you is righteous!

The navigator sensed the meaning in Leslie's eyes and sighed:

"Mortals can never understand how great what I do is!"

Upon hearing this, Van En felt nauseous.

Why are all these villains so pretentious?

The navigator, clearly tired of the verbal sparring with Van and Leslie, snapped his fingers, and two dark blue flames rose around him, revealing his true form to Van:

The navigator was dressed in a plain light brown hunter's uniform and carried no weapons.

He was tall and thin, and at first glance, he looked somewhat like Vann. He wore a very tall triangular captain's hat and a smooth, white mask that shimmered with iridescent light, which looked like it was made of seashells.

"Deep-Sea Cursed Fire! Where did you come from?!"

Leslie paid no attention to the navigator's appearance; he stared intently at the two dark blue flames, his expression turning ashen.

The navigator nodded and said:

"Since you know my background, you should know the secret from back then. If there are no questions, please come in! We have been waiting for this day for a very, very long time."

Leslie looked at Van and the others and said, "You should go. The place ahead... is not where you should be now."

Fan opened his mouth, about to say something, when he heard the dungeon notification sound:

[You have completed the main storyline of the Deer Court Mystery Case. You can now complete this instance and receive rewards!]

Because Leslie's fate was altered, and she didn't go completely mad in the battle against the evil twins, you obtained a hidden side quest—The Navigator's Secret!

Be the first to enter the dark chamber and confront the Navigator; you can uncover his secret!

[Please note! Only one person can enter, but you cannot defeat the navigator! Survive for 5 minutes after entering the secret room to complete this hidden mission!]

Chen Zhihe and Jiang Si also received the same message. When they saw the look that Fan En gave them, they nodded slightly.

Van En breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing that his two teammates had agreed to what he wanted to do, he glanced at Leslie.

Chen Zhihe and Jiang Si understood each other perfectly. They approached Leslie without making a sound, pretending to bow and say goodbye, but the next second they grabbed the old hunter's shoulder tightly.

"What are you doing?!"

Leslie was already physically weak, but breaking free wouldn't have been difficult for him. However, his first action was to look at Vane:

"Van! What are you doing!"

By this time, half of Van's body had already passed through the door to the dark chamber. Hearing Leslie's voice, he turned to his teacher, smiled, and said:

"Disobedient apprentices are often the most successful!"

Without hesitation, he stepped into the dark chamber.

The door slammed shut, and Leslie's shrill shouts faded away. Vane calmly asked the navigator:

"Do I need to pry open your secret with a meat saw?"

Zzzzz!

Van En brandished his meat saw, his eyes burning with intense fighting spirit.

The navigator chuckled and said, "According to the oracle, your location isn't here..."

Zzzzz!

The deep blue flames beside the navigator crackled as he drew his weapon, a meat saw.

His meat saw was covered in green rust and had a few seaweeds growing on it, as if it had just been taken out of the sea.

Van En was somewhat surprised, but staring into the navigator's scarlet eyes, he had a sense of familiarity.

The navigator snapped his deep-sea butcher's knife, transforming it into a massive, nearly two-meter-long two-handed cleaver, and said to Van:

"Come on! Let me see if your knife is sharp enough!"

Van En gritted his teeth, raised the butcher's cleaver, and launched an attack on the navigator by repeatedly leaping to the left.

call!

The navigator watched as the dark purple meat saw came crashing down on his head, but instead of dodging, he raised the handle of the meat saw and smashed it against the blade of Vane's meat saw.

clang!

The two heavy weapons clashed together, producing a metallic hum.

Van En felt the meat saw in his hand tremble violently, and in an instant, it slipped from his numb hand.

He stared in shock at the navigator in front of him, realizing that there was a significant difference in their skill in using the meat saw and in terms of strength; there were at least two prop masters between them.

call!

The navigator swung down a guillotine-sized meat saw, aiming directly at Van En's head.

Seeing the surprise in Van En's eyes, he smiled faintly and said, "You can practice more in your next life!"

puff!

The butcher saw didn't cut into Vann's head; instead, it struck his shoulder.

Van En dodged ahead of time, avoiding a fatal blow, but his right arm was also severed and fell to the ground with a thud.

Hehehe!

The navigator, however, found a hunting rifle glowing crimson against his chest.

"I bet Leslie will give me full marks for this sneak attack!"
