What are you doing to my humans?

Chapter 113

Shi An: "......"

Human, in human form?

He waved his tail a little hesitantly and lifted his head, looking towards the picture on his desktop.

The large, shiny sapphire lay still in the photo, as if silently signaling temptation to him.

Shi An asked tersely:

"Just for a second?"

Mu Hang: "Just a moment."

"Well, that's fine." Shi An thought about it and agreed in a whisper.

"An appointment?"

Little dragon nodded, "Uh-huh!"

It's next time anyway.

It might be a long time from now, right?

Mu Hang gave a short laugh, slowly and methodically clipped the picture back into the folder, and said, "Well then, get ready to go."

Shi An: "?"

He looked up at Mu Hang, puzzled, "Where to?"

Mu Hang raised his hand and touched Little dragon's spine:

"Fulfill our agreement."

The Zhou Clan hadn't expected at all that the bounty mission they had posted would actually be picked up by someone.

Their family is not big, located at the edge of the Central District, near the Dark Mountain Range, which is already sparsely populated, barren of resources, and infested with demons, and recently the situation has become even worse, with almost all of the abilities within the family either injured or missing, and their deaths unknown.

The Chow family had to make a desperate move.

They posted a bounty, hoping that someone would take it.

Although the Bounty Bar is located under the name of Administration, it is indeed open to all Ability Users in the entire continent. Whether they are official or unofficial Ability Users, as long as they have certified qualifications, they are able to take up tasks and get paid in it.

But the hope is really slim.

After all, there had been so many attacks lately that the reward board had been overflowing with quests for help posted by various clans.

But today, they received news.

The mission they posted was taken.

You have to know that the Dark Mountain Range is the most dangerous section of the entire Central Region, and all the missions related to it are above Grade A, not to mention that it is still such a tense time period ......

Does anyone actually have the guts to take it?

The Zhou Family's family head uneasily opened the bounty interface.

Immediately afterward, he sucked in a breath of cool air and slowly stared in disbelief, barely able to believe his eyes.

The one who took on the mission was of top level 3S, only taking on S-rank and above missions, which were few in number and extremely dangerous, but the completion rate was a horrifying one hundred percent.

Zhou Cheng almost fainted when he saw the man's name.

My God ......

Mu Hang?

He's not dreaming, is he?

The next second, the person who took the mission sent a brief message with very little content, just the date, time and coordinates.

It should be the meeting place.

Zhou Cheng put the communicator down with a trance-like face, turned around, and left the door with a weak foot.

His wife rushed over with an anxious look on her face, "Well, did anyone really come next? Is it reliable?"

A barrage of questions came in rapid-fire succession.

Zhou Cheng reacted for a few seconds before sluggishly twisting his head and pressing his hand on his own wife s shoulder, "So what ...... first get the bounty ready."

Wife: "...... huh?"

Zhou Cheng : "Don't worry, reliable, absolutely reliable."

Later that evening.

The Zhou family's men appeared at the coordinates sent from the opposite side, heavily armed and on standby.

Normally, the person receiving the quest would personally travel to the family that posted the bounty to find out what was going on, but it was clear that Mu Hang wasn't prepared to do that.

The location of that coordinate he sent was just outside the Dark Mountains.

The point in time is eight o'clock.

It happened to be the time when afternoon alternated with evening, and when darkness descended, the magical creatures in the Dark Mountain Range would enter their active time, and this area would officially enter its most dangerous time period.

Even at the usual most peaceful times, traveling near the Dark Forest was not recommended at this time of year, let alone now.

The opposite arrangement is extremely simple, brutal, straightforward and extremely efficient.

I'm close to typing the words "don't waste your time".

However, the Chow family has no complaints about this.

What can you complain about? That's the legendary Officer Mu!

Five minutes past eight.

At the horizon of alternating light and darkness, a car approached in that direction.

At eight o'clock sharp, the car stopped in front of the crowd.

The door opened and the tall, silver-haired man stepped out of the car.

He was wearing a pitch-black long coat with tactical gloves on his hands, his face was cold and stern, and his blue eyes looked serenely in this direction, "Zhou Cheng?"

Zhou Cheng walked over on his feet:

"Yes, it's me."

The face in front of them couldn't be more familiar.

After all, as the number one human powerhouse, it was impossible to completely avoid the cameras even if he kept a low profile, not to mention the fact that he was the face of the Administration, appearing above the news headlines many times.

Zhou Cheng, still in disbelief, stammered:

"I ...... thought the Administration wouldn't be in charge of this kind of thing?"

Although the Administration is an official agency, it is a separate system from the political districts controlled by the major families, and most of them will only deal with urgent large-scale attacks, unless public safety is involved, they rarely exceed their authority to help deal with small-scale attacks within the jurisdictions of the families.

After all, there would also be private squads of capable people within the various clans, as well as higher jurisdictions.

At first, the Zhou family also wanted to ask the Administration for support, but on the one hand, the Administration is really busy and short of manpower recently, and on the other hand, they do not have any evidence to classify these attacks as "related to public security", so they have not received any reply from the Administration. Therefore, they have not received any reply from the Administration.

Mu Hang straightens the edges of his gloves:

"Doesn't really matter."

He raised his thick silver-white eyelashes, his azure eyes deep and indifferent, "This is something I took on privately."

"Did you bring the payoff?"

"Yes, yes." Zhou Cheng froze and hurriedly nodded.

He took the box from his wife's hand behind him and handed it over with both hands in a hurry.

Mu Hang didn't pick up:

"I'll pick it up when the mission is complete."

Zhou Cheng didn't respond for a moment, "About when is it ......?"

Mu Hang lowered his eyes and scanned his wristwatch:

"Half an hour."

Zhou Cheng: "......"

He stared blankly at the other man.

Only the silver-haired man in front of him turned around and walked alone towards the dark mountains, his spine straight and his steps elegant.

In a matter of seconds, Mu Hang's back disappeared into the darkness.

The air fell into a silence.

After a long time, one of the Zhou Family members who had been silent just now lowered his voice and said secretly to the companion beside him:

"Hey, hey, did you just notice that?"

"What?"

"Officer Mu's right pocket seems to be carrying something, it's bulging and it seems to be alive ......"

"???? Huh?"

"Really, I think I still hear purring."

*

The Dark Mountains lived up to its name.

Just walking into it, the dim twilight outside had been completely obscured, as if stepping instantly into the darkness of eternal night.

Mu Hang walked forward with conviction.

With each step, the scenery around him changed instantly, like a compressed landscape whizzing by on either side.

A long sword congealed by magic power emerged from his palm.

The aura around the man changed.

Sharp, stern, wrapped in a thick bloody gas, as if it were a blood-stained divine weapon thrust straight into the dark forest in front of him.

Like a drop of cold water splashed into boiling oil.

The darkness was stirred to ferocity by the undisguised threat, and intense waves of magic shook the edges of his vision as low growls of demonic creatures came from all directions.

Before arriving, Mu Hang had already understood his next task.

The Dark Mountain Range is one of the most dangerous areas near the Central District, and the Institute's monitoring station set up here has also captured strong anomalous signals, but the data analysis is not yet available.

No one knows the exact answer to the question of whether it's a demonic riot or the appearance of unknown demons.

All they knew was that the Dark Mountains came to life after nightfall and began to devour indiscriminately any living person who tried to enter them.

The blade was silver and white as snow, cutting through the darkness with ease.

The bones, skin and flesh of the demonic creatures were almost unbearable under this absolutely powerful force.

A flurry of black and red blood splattered in all directions, coating the ground.

Most of the demons barely had time to hum a single word before they were torn in half by the horrendous power and died in the blink of an eye.

It was at this moment that a Thunder Roaring Beast found the right moment to attack from the dead end of the human's vision not far away.

A madly ghastly bloodthirsty sheen flashed in one pair of scarlet eyes, and a demonstrative growl escaped from his throat:

"Roar--"

However, its voice had only just cried out when it felt a coldness in its throat.

The silver-haired, blue-eyed man narrowed his eyes as his longsword sank deep into its throat, the tip of the sword easily picking off the vocal cords of the thunderhawked beast so that it would never be able to utter a single yelp again.

He lifted a long, slender finger and dropped it in front of his lips:

"Shh."

In the next second, the blade lashed out.

The Thunder Roaring Beast was instantly separated from its head.

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the body, which had been cut in two, fell heavily to the ground with a dull "plop" sound.

Mu Hang withdrew his eyes as he reached out a hand and carefully probed into his right pocket.

Soon, his fingertips touched the hard, cold dragon scales.

The palm-sized Little dragon curled up into a ball and lay peacefully asleep deep in his pocket, his spine rising and falling regularly, as if completely unaffected by the killing that had just occurred.

There was even a happy little snore.

Mu Hang breathed an insane sigh of relief.

Luckily, it didn't wake up.

He stood still and looked around the room.

A darkness scattered around his feet with demonic limbs.

Although all of these magical creatures were creatures that were already present in the Dark Mountains, a number of them were not from this time of the year, or were not from this season, but for some unknown reason, they were all gathered together.

And more importantly, the trajectory of these demons was not right.

Most of their attacks on humans are for hunting, or because humans have invaded their areas of activity.

Moreover, the magical creatures possessed a certain degree of intelligence, and once they realized that the other party was stronger, they would tend to avoid harm and stay away from the fight.

But what's happening now is the opposite.

These demons gathered together and unreservedly attacked the humans, tireless and unrelenting.

Mu Hang frowned slightly.

It was at this moment that he suddenly perceived a bit of extremely unusual magic power fluctuation coming from a short distance away.

It was different from all those demons that attacked him just now.

The scent was darker, stranger, colder.

Abyssal species?

But Mu Hang dismissed his suspicions in the next breath.

Unlike.

Carrying his sword, he headed in the direction from which the fluctuation came.

The further forward you go, the deeper the darkness gets.

Not far away through the clumps of dark shrubs was a cold pond, and the air seemed to escape with some kind of light purple mist that looked evil and eerie.

At the edge of the pond, a pitch-black demonic creature crouched there.

It looked like a huge spider, with a bulging abdomen covered with ugly and weird patterns, six long legs covered with hard hair, and eight cold and horrible eyes, which were now looking towards Mu Hang's direction.

Mu Hang recognizes this kind of demon.

It was not an Abyssal species, but a native demonic creature of the Dark Mountain Range, yet it was several times larger than its normal counterparts of this species, and had that eerie purple mist wrapped around its body.

The demonic creature slowly opened its mouthpiece.

A circle of sharp, jagged fangs showed, lining the entire mouth like a shark.

It looked hungrily and greedily at the human not far away, its six tentacles moving restlessly.

Mu Hang narrowed his eyes absently.

- - - Is it better to take it alive, or wait and collect a little sample to go back?

A cold shimmering light reflected off the smooth sword in his hand.

The light flashed across the demon's eyes.

Enraged, it charged straight in Mu Hang's direction, its six heavy legs slamming into the ground with a strong jolt.

It was at this moment that the man's right pocket suddenly moved.

Spider abruptly stopped in his tracks.

The densely-packed eyes on its skull went down in unison, looking slowly toward the pockets of the Mu Hang.

Mu Hang was stunned.

His right pocket moved again.

The next moment, a Little Silver Dragon poked its head out of its pocket, yawned lazily, and did a simple stretch by digging its claws into the bottom of Mu Hang's pocket.

"So hungry."

It blinked a pair of bright golden-red vertical pupils and looked expectantly at the owner of the pocket:

"When are we having dinner?"

The spider's mouthparts retracted suddenly, and a suppressed, eerie cry escaped from its throat.

Like a demonstration, or a weak scream.

Slowly, hesitantly, it took a step backward, its massive body bringing up a strong vibration in the ground and a rustling of leaves around it.

Shi An seemed to have just noticed where she was.

He blinked and twisted his head around.

Darkness, limbs, and big ugly spiders not far away.

Little dragon narrowed his eyes slowly:

"Hey, what are you doing to my human?"

Now, Mu Hang could clearly see a flash of obvious terror in the spider's eyes.

The next moment, it fell to its knees with a plop, and then crouched on the ground, shivering:
