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

call!

Whoosh!

call!

A stench of blood, rust, and rotting flesh blew onto Vann's face.

He suppressed the acid reflux rising in his throat and covered his mouth and nose with the triangular scarf around his neck as a mask.

Van En squinted and looked out of the carriage.

The outside world, shrouded in blood mist, was like a television without a signal, filled with constantly flickering black and red dots.

But in the howling wind, these dots were blown into red and black lines, like the claws of a monster tearing everything around them.

The "Beast" mark on his left arm began to heat up, and Van En instantly felt a surge of desire within him.

He gritted his teeth, thinking to himself:

"I feel like I want to bite into something."

Fan En looked to both sides of the carriage and saw the source of the silver light that dispelled the blood mist.

Those were two long, cylindrical lanterns hanging at either end of the carriage ceiling, inside which a dark red substance was burning with a hissing sound, emitting a silvery light that dispersed the dangerous blood mist to a distance of ten meters.

Van En touched the silver lantern with his hand:

【Silver Blood Lanterns - Carriage Grade: Four silver blood lanterns specifically designed for carriages, used to maintain safety within the carriage. Do not remove; otherwise, they will extinguish.】

"pity!"

Van En felt regretful and put down the cleaver.

Even under the protection of the silver light, the area around the carriage seemed safe.

But Fan En knew that if it were truly safe, why wouldn't Ma be there?

He gripped the cleaver tightly, stepped off the car door, and jumped to the ground.

The beast mark began to pulsate, and Vann noticed a semi-circular red light appearing in his right field of vision.

Such obvious guidance made him turn his head immediately, and his eyes turned fierce.

Turning his head, Van En saw a sharp spike emerge from the blood mist, transforming into a bloody beast's claw that lunged at him.

click!

Ding!

Just then, the silver blood lamp on his right emitted a blinding light, shining on the blood claw and scalding its flesh until it tore open.

After his initial surprise, Van En quickly raised his cleaver and slashed at it.

Click!

Boom!

The blood claw fell to the ground, was illuminated again by the silver blood lamp, and quickly turned into dust and drifted away.

Vann caught his breath. The blood claw attack was incredibly fast; if it weren't for the red arc warning, he would definitely have been hit.

"It seems this is the hunter's sense of smell."

At the same time, a message appeared before Van En's eyes:

【Claws of Blood Mist: Even with the protection of the Silver Blood Lamp, leaving the carriage and keeping it in one place for an extended period still carries significant risks.】

It will relentlessly try to deplete the Silver Blood Lamp's energy, dragging your carriage into the blood mist.

Van En's face darkened. He decided that after checking the situation, he would immediately enter the blood mist, otherwise he would be doomed.

Looking at the blood mist that was far away from him, Fan En understood what had happened from the commotion he had heard in the carriage earlier.

The blood mist there continued to surge, seemingly brewing the next attack.

Just then, Van En noticed a pale green arc appearing on the left side of his field of vision.

This made him immediately turn around and look at the source.

But after Van En clearly saw the pale green outline, his eyes filled with doubt:

"Why is there another girl here?"

"This looks alive? Could it have already turned into a monster shrouded in blood mist?!"

Fan En raised the cleaver in his hand, held his breath, and approached step by step.

Gradually, he also got a clear look at the girl's face.

She was wearing a light blue dress and a floral headscarf. The dress was somewhat tattered and had many patches on it.

She had a pair of calves that looked very strong, with healthy, wheat-colored skin.

There were scratches on his exposed shoulders, back, and legs.

However, some white ointment was applied, which treated the injuries to a great extent.

The girl's posture was strange; she was lying face down on the ground with her right arm outstretched.

She extended her right index finger, pointing towards the carriage door, as if to say:

"As long as we get there, everything will be alright."

Fan En squatted down beside her, sniffed, and in addition to a faint smell of blood, he also smelled the scent of firewood from the countryside.

"Is she a country girl? Did she escape from a nearby village?"

Fan En placed his fingers on the 'country girl's' neck, feeling the strong pulse of her artery, then stood up and began to ponder:

"Is this girl a player or a native of the Blood Mist world?"

"Um……"

"Never mind her for now, finding Ma is the most important thing!"

That's what Fan En was thinking, but out of kindness, he used his feet to "help" the unconscious girl to a place closer to the carriage.

Then, he prepared to go to the driver's seat of the carriage not far away to see if there were any clues.

Unexpectedly, he had only taken two steps forward when he heard a faint voice beside him:

"Hunter... Hunter, we... we're still alive."

Fan En frowned, but he could tell that the girl was probably a native of the Blood Mist World.

He immediately became interested, helped her up, and let her lean against the carriage wheel.

The girl had some scratches and a lot of dust on her face, but you could tell that her features were quite nice. Her flaxen braids at the back of her head were also disheveled.

She was incredibly dirty, and her white cloth shoes had a hole in them, revealing two filthy toes.

"Coo coo coo~"

Fan En stared at the disheveled girl's belly, pondered for two seconds, then took out an oatmeal energy bar from his backpack, handed it to her, and asked:

"Who are you?"

"I am Katya, a novice nun from Sweet Well Village."

Katya swallowed hard, her eyes fixed on the oat energy bar in Van's hand, but she waved her hand in refusal:

"This is your food, and you need to clear the surrounding blood mist. I cannot eat it!"

nun?

Is this considered a nun?

Van En chuckled helplessly, placed the oatmeal energy bar into Katya's hand, and said:

"Just eat what I'm told to eat. Tell me how you fainted here?"

Katya swallowed hard, held the oatmeal energy bar to her chest, and replied:

"I usually study in Putuo Town, but I took a vacation last month to go home and help with the grain harvest."

"Yesterday morning I was preparing to return to town, and I was almost in sight of the Silver Blood Lantern of Put Town when suddenly a cloud of blood mist appeared."

At this point, Katya's face was full of worry, and she whispered:

"This blood mist came so suddenly, without any warning. I wonder what will happen to the village."

Van En gleaned a lot of information from Katya's words.

First of all, the place I am in now is probably not far from that Putuo Town or Tianjing Village.

Even though the blood mist can distort space, as long as he finds the horse, he can leave this dangerous place.

Secondly, Katya is a local, and having her around can be a great help.

Furthermore, the blood mist here seems to be able to be cleared.

That's even better news; even if they can't find their lost horse, they can safely get down by dispelling the blood mist.

But Van En was not careless; his right hand remained behind his back, always gripping the cleaver.

He looked at the oatmeal energy bar that Katya was holding and said:

"You're already very hungry, why aren't you eating?"

"what?"

"Eat quickly!"

Van En gripped the cleaver tighter and tighter.
