Outside the venue
"Have you figured it out? Why did the power suddenly go out in the venue?!"
The giant beast man said grimly.
"This... I haven't found out the reason yet. According to my investigation, it is very likely that the line at the main switch has been damaged.
It’s not our problem. Maybe the students inside accidentally damaged the main line when they were fighting the scaly-skinned banshee…”
A man bowed his head respectfully and spoke hesitantly.
When the giant beast man heard his subordinate's answer, his face turned gloomy.
Looking at the thin moonlight above his head, the giant beast man couldn't help but sigh.
In dark conditions, only special mages like shadow mages will get some conveniences.
In this environment, ordinary mages will be at a disadvantage when facing demons...
This is really a case of "misfortunes never come singly"!
"Hunter King, let's charge in!
Those students were no match for the demons. In such a dark environment, they were almost completely at a disadvantage when facing the demons...
If this continues, the situation will only get worse! ..."
At this moment, a member of a city monster hunting group on the periphery spoke anxiously.
However, he was interrupted before he could finish his words!
"No, the number of people being held hostage is no longer just the dozens at the beginning. Do you know how many people have been infected?
If the problem could be solved by sacrificing a few dozen people at the beginning.
If we rush in now, hundreds or even thousands of people may die. Can you be held responsible for this?"
The man who was interrupted looked angrily at the man who tried to stop him.
"Why not? It's better to do something than just stand here and watch!
If you hadn't been there to dissuade us, and had attacked right from the start, we wouldn't be in so much trouble now..."
"It's easy to say, but who can't brag? Can you easily shoulder and decide the life and death of hundreds of people?"
"That's better than someone like you who just stands by and makes sarcastic remarks!"
"you……"
"enough!!!"
In an instant, when the two arguing parties were about to fight in anger, the giant beast man spoke directly in a harsh voice.
After hearing the Hunter King's voice, the two people who were originally unable to control their emotions forced themselves to calm down.
The two arguing people were half-kneeling on the ground, waiting for the giant man to make the final decision.
The giant beast man looked at the darkened venue in front of him, sighed, then looked at his subordinates beside him and asked:
"Is it possible that the circuit at the main switch was directly destroyed by the Scale-skinned Demon Mother's subordinates?"
When the subordinate heard the Hunter King's question, he was about to shake his head subconsciously, but after thinking for a while, he changed his words.
"Normally, there isn't, but I can't guarantee it..."
The power outage in the entire building was indeed too much of a coincidence, but it was highly unlikely that the mutated scaly-skinned banshee would retain some level of sanity.
But the subordinates also knew that the Hunting King had obviously made up his mind and just wanted a reason.
"So it's possible, right?"
"I can't guarantee it!"
The giant beast man took a deep breath and looked at the dim building in front of him, his eyes finally turning into determination.
"Go ahead! I will take responsibility for any casualties that may result..."
"Yes!"
The people around did not object, and they quickly broke into small groups and rushed in. …………………………
at the same time
Lingling, who had just taken advantage of her free time to chat with Luo Chen, was about to use the communication magic tool to contact the outside world!
The next moment, a loud bang was heard!
Luo Chen and Lingling saw a big hole in the dome of the building.
A giant beast with green iron hooves stepped down from the night sky, and its foot actually crushed the extremely solid ceiling when it stepped on it.
Countless fragments fell from the sky, and the huge body of the giant blue iron-hoofed beast fell down, just like a small meat mountain falling down!
After landing, the entire venue was shaken! !
The scene of the giant blue beast stepping down was so visually shocking that Lingling couldn't help but be stunned.
What was even more shocking was that there was already a man standing between the giant beast's towering horns.
The size of the beast was disproportionate to that of the man, yet it was obvious that the man was the beast's owner.
He scanned the venue, looking at the green and yellow banshees lying on the ground in agony and twisted, his eyes finally couldn't help but reveal doubt.
"Rush, rush in, don't let any monster go!!"
Not far away, a team of hunters in neat uniforms rushed in from the entrance.
"Hey, Lingling, don't worry, we've already gone in to rescue you!"
At this moment, Lingling's communication model was suddenly connected, and a slightly weird male voice came from the other end.
"No, you're late. We've already dealt with everything, and you're just here..."
Lingling looked at the broken dome above the building in silence, then spoke to the other end.
"what?!"
The charming man in leather jacket stood there in surprise.
The giant beast man had obviously heard the voice from the communication magic tool just now, and cast his eyes over...
It was here that a subordinate found the dead scaly-skinned female demon and dragged the corpse to the giant beast man and reported:
"Report to the Hunter King, the Scale-skinned Demon Mother had died before we came in..."
The giant man nodded, then turned his gaze to the seductive man in leather jacket beside him.
The charming man instantly felt a huge pressure, and then spoke to the other end of the communication magic tool:
"Lingling, were you the ones who dealt with the scaly-skinned demon mother?"
"Otherwise, could it be that you solved it?"
Under the gaze of the crowd, the charming man who was retorted by Lingling was obviously a little embarrassed, but he still asked:
"I just want to ask if you solved this crisis by killing the Scale-skinned Demon Mother?"
"Of course! I originally used the communication magic tool to inform you, but who knew you would suddenly come in."
Lingling on the other end affirmed.
"However, the main credit goes to Luo Chen. I was just pointing the way..."
The seductive man nodded, then looked respectfully at the giant beast man beside him.
“Luo Chen…?!”
The giant beast man nodded when he heard the name in the communication magic tool, and he also suddenly realized it.
He had heard of Luo Chen's name before, when he accidentally heard that Luo Chen and two others had solved all the vampire bounty lists by themselves.
As the Hunter King, he has a very high authority in the Hunter Alliance, so he naturally knows what kind of person is behind Luo Chen.
Therefore, after knowing that it was Luo Chen who resolved the crisis, he was not surprised.
Originally, as the hunting king, he was ready to be disgraced and endure the blame of countless people.
However, he did not expect that it was that person's descendant who killed the scaly-skinned demon mother in advance.
In this way, Luo Chen actually helped him indirectly.
This made the Hunter King feel a little emotional and he didn't know what to say...
In that case, he felt it was a bit unreasonable not to give more.
