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

Chapter 171 Trouble

With her left hand on her hip, Catherine immediately stopped her seductive pose after seeing Lorinsa return to the courtroom.

She turned around abruptly, and in her right hand was a long shotgun with a scope.

The hunting rifle was gleaming silver, its surface covered with intricate arcane patterns.

If Vann were here, he would immediately recognize that Catherine's weapon was made of a metal with a high mithril content.

Catherine looked towards the rooftops deep in the alley, raised her long-barreled shotgun, and aimed the sight at the empty space on the eaves.

But in a place where there was nothing to the naked eye, there was a person lying down in Catherine's reddened eye.

Her index finger pulled the trigger, a smile playing on her lips: "Got you!"

A crimson light instantly shone from Catherine's long-barreled shotgun.

call out!

A blood-red bullet, about 10 centimeters long and gleaming with a silvery sheen, was fired from the barrel.

Bang!

The bullet hit the hidden person, and his lower body was blown in two.

Even so, the mysterious man was still alive. He immediately turned into a streak of blood and tried to escape.

"Hmph! Trying to escape!"

Catherine did not move.

She touched the magazine of the shotgun and fired a pure silver bullet.

The bullet exploded just before hitting the blood-red light, turning into a pure silver net that covered the blood-red light.

Upon realizing he had been captured, the Blood God follower muttered things like "Father God, grant me glory," and prepared to transform into a tree of flesh and blood and self-destruct.

But before he could finish the first incantation, the silver net covering him instantly transformed into sharp threads that began to contract, cutting him into countless pieces.

call!

The next second, Catherine, carrying the net of flesh and blood, glanced in the direction of the inquisition and said with a wicked smile, "Great, I'll have a toy tonight!"

Vane had no idea that his other savior was also a beautiful and eccentric hunter.

He glanced at Katya, who was already asleep, hesitated for a moment, and then, instead of taking out the umbilical cord, reviewed its information again:

A section of undifferentiated umbilical cord: This is irrefutable proof that a divine offspring was born, and also the source of the cursed blood.

Arrogant humans, deluding themselves to possess the power of the divine offspring, are met with endless divine punishment.

It is said that in ancient times, believers of the Blood God attempted to make peace with the god in order to obtain purer blood in exchange for the power of blood, but they suffered destruction as a result.

This umbilical cord is evidence of the blasphemy committed by bestial humans, indicating that subsequent humans did not abandon their blasphemous acts.

The immortal blood contained in the umbilical cord signifies that the divine offspring born has died in the womb, transforming into a mindless curse that hates everything.

After fighting you, the power of the Undying Blood almost dissipated, and you were unable to draw power from it.

You may use it as ritual material, returning it to God in exchange for greater blessings.

"Madmen! Everyone in this world is a bunch of madmen!"

Van En lowered his voice, his face flushed red, unable to believe that the truth was so cruel.

This undifferentiated umbilical cord, though unrelated to his origins, is even an antique from ancient times.

But it also indirectly proved one thing:

The thing inside Doug Hearst's stomach wasn't his small intestine at all, but a huge clump of divine offspring's umbilical cord.

And I am probably like that cursed blood beast, born from such a thing.

Fan En stared at the umbilical cord in his inventory and chuckled silently: "The way this world summons heroes is truly unique and unconventional—"

He fell silent, his eyes gradually dimmed, and he began to doubt whether he was still human.

Van En had repeatedly read the most prominent line in his job description: "You are a special hunter created by the Hearst family. Your innate blood disease makes you unable to resist the temptation of blood therapy and special blood."

"To be created, so this is what creation is all about—"

Vann shook his head, casting aside his useless melancholy and anger, and began to carefully recall what he had heard when he received the [Beast Emblem]:

There is no reason that can be lost.

There are no dreams that can bring peace of mind.

There is no clairvoyance to perceive the truth.

Born from the womb of a divine offspring, you will inevitably seal your primordial blood within your body.

You are a beast.

You are a Blood Hunter

"Born from the womb of a divine offspring—it turns out that Doug Hearst had already given me the answer."

Van En finally sighed and decided to stop worrying about these things for the time being.

Since everything has already happened, and he no longer has a time machine to go back to the beginning and slap Doug.

But he still couldn't help recall what happened during those two blood-donation ceremonies:

Doug made no attempt to conceal the power of the Source Blood, even pointing out to Maria that it was a curse.

Although Vane didn't know why Henry accepted the source blood, he knew from Maria's condition:

By then, Ya Nan was in a terrible state, and everyone was in despair.

Doug and the Blood Hunters had no other choice.

Either die in your homeland and perish along with your country.

They must either accept the power of this cursed blood, escape with humanity, and survive.

"So it was all out of necessity, huh? That's why you parted ways with your comrades, Doug, because you wanted to reclaim the power of the Source Blood."

Van En remembered Beers, that simpleton, and pieced together a piece of the historical puzzle.

The next second, Van En's pupils dilated.

He felt a voice within his blood telling him:

All the tragedies are caused by the source blood. If he wants to put an end to this endless curse, all he has to do is collect all the source blood!

"I see. It seems my goal hasn't changed."

Fan En has resolved many of his inner conflicts and decided to stop dwelling on his troubled past.

He could sense that Doug Hearst wouldn't harm him.

The Blood Hunter's unique characteristics give him a somewhat invincible feel in this chaotic world.

"Therefore, to avoid going insane due to beastification, I need to collect source blood!"

Van En clenched his fist, reaffirming his resolve to achieve his goal.

But at the same time, a great curiosity arose in his heart.

Fan En walked to the window, looked west towards Lu Ting, and smiled, "Keep walking that way, cross the Sea of ​​Mist, and you'll reach Ya Nan. What's that place like?"

At this moment, the little golden egg sensed that Van En's emotions had finally calmed down and whispered in his mind, "Brother, don't be afraid, your blood is sacred, not cursed blood."

Van En shrugged helplessly and said, "In your presence, I am certainly sacred."

"No!"

Little Golden Egg refuted Van En, but didn't explain anything.

The unborn child said firmly, "Brother, I saw everything Mother said. I will help you sever the threads of fate binding you!"

Fan En was deeply moved by what the little golden egg said.

He asked softly, "It might sound a bit disrespectful, but how about I give you a name?"

"OK!"

"Hmm—then shall we call her Ginny?"

"That sounds awful! I'm an insect, I don't want a human name!"

Van En scratched his head, looked at the sleeping Katya and Lilith, and sighed with a headache, saying, "Women are such a hassle. Why don't you come up with a name yourself later?"

"No! Brother, get up for me!"
