My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 166

The smell and humidity that hit his face made the old man feel extremely uncomfortable.

He tightened his grip on the dagger in his hand.

The thing in front of me has a wolf-like upper body and a human-like lower body.

Some parts were obviously taken from other creatures, and the whole body was modified with something similar to needle and thread.

If the black lines at the seams were not too conspicuous, most people would only marvel at the uncanny workmanship of the Creator when they first saw the thing made up of countless limbs, while ignoring the twists and turns of the thing.

That kind of vaguely natural temperament is absolutely impossible for all man-made things to have.

Only true creators could create such exquisite creatures.

Even though the limbs of the creature in front of him all come from different lives, it still exudes something close to "this makes sense".

Liu Yan ran away from home, and the sound of heavy objects falling came from the room behind him, followed immediately by the horrifying sound of chewing bones as he chewed the corpse.

He tried his best to lead his family and avoid the blue beams of light cast by the giant hat-like being above his head towards the street below.

The surrounding people heard the noise outside, but looking at the huge and terrifying thing in the sky, emitting blue light, no one dared to go out to rescue it.

Compared to the physical wolf-like monster, the disk-shaped thing above the head is the biggest threat.

Photographed by its blue light, even those Taoist monks protected by Xuan Gong ghosts and gods showed no resistance at all. They were kidnapped together with the hundreds of officers and soldiers sent by Nanzhili two months ago. They have been kidnapped until now. I don’t know life or death.

The blue light seemed to find a few people and cast it over, but the shadow of the earthen wall beside it couldn't accommodate everyone.

A wolf-like monster rushed out from behind, blocking the retreat.

Will the whole family die here today?

Liu Yan looked at his sobbing wife and children in front of him and thought desperately.

"here--"

The weird werewolf behind him roared, and then a sword light struck him instantly under the moonlight.

It was a young general wearing the robe of the Imperial Guard, and he was currently fighting for his life with what seemed like a wolf demon.

He shouted towards Liu Yan and others.

The claws of the hungry wolf in front of him were fierce. He ducked and avoided it with an arrow, then raised his sword and slashed towards the abdomen of the hungry wolf in front of him.

But in an instant, Li Changshou felt something was wrong.

That is not the feeling that a sword should feel when it penetrates flesh.

It's more like some kind of extremely hard insect carapace.

In pain, the monster took a few steps back, and smelly sewage flowed from its abdomen.

Li Changshou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the group of people who were being chased take advantage of the wolf demon being dragged to escape into the alley.

Behind him, Wang Xiaohu also drew his command arrow, and there was a sound in the sky, followed by colorful lights.

Presumably the senior officials in the government office from the capital arrived quickly after hearing the news.

However, why, even if the observatory was negligent, should the officials on duty at the bell tower sound the alarm when the giant hat demon is so conspicuous?

Listening to the silent night around him, Li Changshou thought vaguely uneasy. He wiped the blood on his sword with his cuffs and stared at the strange monster in front of him, which looked like a monster spliced ​​together from parts of countless species.

But the more he looked at it, the strange feeling lingered in his heart and became more and more serious.

"What the hell are you-"

"Brother Li, let's go quickly——"

Li Changshou saw the familiar scar on the human-like torso. Before he could react, a cunning and vicious light flashed in the eyes of the wolf-like thing in front of him.Not far away, Wang Xiaohu’s exclamation came.

That thing, the giant hat-like thing in the sky, put away all its light at this time, and floated quietly on Li Changshou's head.

When Li Changshou looked up, a huge blue light instantly enveloped everyone on the street, like a net.

Everyone disappeared immediately, leaving only iron tools, jewelry and other metal products everywhere.

It flickered in the sky for a few times, rose up to the sky again as if satisfied, and disappeared into the night in a few breaths.

When the Qintian Prison from Nanzhili arrived, all they saw besides the filth and blood was Li Changshou's ancestral Autumn Water Sword, which proved that there were officers, soldiers and civilians kidnapped by the hat monster here again.

Fawei, the leader of Taihe Guanguan who was responsible for guarding this place, looked at the mess in front of him with an ugly expression.

Listening to the whispers of the people in the surrounding courtyards, someone took advantage of the chaos to take the Liu couple's youngest son home to avoid being kidnapped by the hat monster.

In case the Liu family doesn't come back this time, it can still be considered as leaving some flesh and blood for their family.

Zhang Fawei's expression calmed down a little.

He looked at the criminal case officer next to him who was in charge of the hat demon's matter and there was no trace of shame on his face, and his expression became angry again.

"The hat demon is so rampant and the city's light is so bright. Why didn't the observatory give any response, but the last person to send the message was a few patrolling guards? How should Inspector Zhao explain!"

"This--"

The official looked confused, but his expression remained calm.

I wanted to say something, but as if there was something unspeakable, I couldn't reply.

Zhang Fawei became even more angry when he saw this, knowing that the Jinling Mountain was high and the emperor was far away. With the economic prosperity, it had become a common practice to deceive the superiors and deceive the subordinates to take the imperial tax money.

"Master! This seems to be the blood stain of the wolf demon!"

A Taoist priest noticed the filthy blood on the ground, raised his head and said with surprise.

The monster had always acted cunningly, deliberately avoiding the capable people and strangers in the city, and only singled out ordinary people to attack.

Facing that monster, ordinary people had no power to resist, and the government was unable to rescue him. This was the first time he saw this pool of blood in front of him.

"Bring in the spirit dogs sent from the palace."

Zhang Fawei was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately brought several long dogs with pure white hair and slender bodies. After they sniffed them, they started barking toward the north.

"Follow me - I want to see where this hat demon is hiding, which he claims never leaves a trace during the day!"

Zhang Fawei sneered, shook his Taoist robe, and did not look at the incomprehensible official again.

After handing over his hand, he turned around and started to lead the disciples away.

"I have fast horses on guard in Nanjing! I also have elite knights! They can help the Taoist priests catch up!"

Next to him, Nanjing Guard Guo Xuanli looked sad after hearing the news that the former Nanjing Guard was eaten by a wolf monster at home. When he saw Zhang Fawei and others were about to leave, he stepped forward and said with fists in his hands.

"Thank you-"

After Zhang Fawei thanked him, he saw that Inspector Zhao was still standing silently, looking at the blood of the wolf demon in front of him. He didn't know what he was thinking, and sneered again.

"You have neglected your duties. When the Emperor comes to attack Jinling in three days, you should first think about how to explain to the Emperor what you did today!"

"The Taoist priest can't help but worry about this!"

After hearing the news that the emperor was about to meet with Nanjing officials in Nanjing, Inspector Zhao's face finally showed a more obvious emotion.

But it was not Zhang Fawei's expected fear about his future. On the contrary, it was an indescribable worry.
