Chapter 414 Who is the disaster beast?
Chapter 414 Who is the disaster beast?
The bonfire was still burning in the dark night, and the orange-red flames swayed in the cold wind.
The flames reflected Shiloh's face, making her facial features appear bright and dark, making her look particularly strange.
As Taoyao looked at the other person's expression at the moment, the bad premonition in her heart became stronger and stronger.
She sensed an unprecedented sense of danger, which made her begin to doubt whether she had chosen the wrong prey.
Just as Taoyao was still thinking, she suddenly saw the maid in front of her make a strange movement.
Shiloh shook her hands gently, and two slender, sharp blades appeared out of thin air between her hands.
The blade reflected a cold light under the firelight, looking extremely dangerous.
When Taoyao saw this scene, she immediately felt extremely confused and puzzled.
What do you mean?
What exactly is going on?
Wasn't this human deceived by her disguise?
According to past experience, humans should completely lose their minds when they see their "dream lover".
Why did this maid not only not fall for it but instead pulled out a weapon?
Although full of doubts, Taoyao decided to try again.
She forced herself to remain calm and maintain that gentle and lovely appearance.
"What are you going to do?"
"Taoyao"'s voice was still gentle, but there was a hint of trembling in it.
"Why did you suddenly pull out a weapon?"
She continued to ask, with grievance and confusion in her eyes.
"Did I do something wrong? Or did I upset you in some way?"
Taoyao's tone became even more pitiful.
"If there's anything I'm not doing right, you can tell me and I'll correct it."
She continued to plead.
"Please don't look at me with that scary look. I'm really scared."
In order to better seduce the human in front of her, "Taoyao" even deliberately used this human appearance that was specially transformed by mobilizing the other party's emotions, and put on a pitiful posture.
Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked like an innocent girl who had been wronged.
She protected herself tightly with her hands, her body trembling slightly, as if she would cry at any moment.
This weak and helpless look, coupled with that delicate and beautiful face, is indeed very lethal.
In Taoyao's view, all human beings are a group of stupid creatures who are easily swayed by emotions.
No matter how rational a human being is, he or she will lose judgment in an instant when faced with the existence that he or she desires most in his or her heart.
The appearance he was showing now would definitely be irresistible to the human woman in front of him.
In particular, he deliberately put on such a pitiful, weak and helpless posture.
This sense of contrast will further stimulate human protectiveness and compassion.
There was no doubt that the human woman in front of him would soon be shaken and let down her guard.
At that time, I can take the opportunity to devour the other person's emotions and desires and have a big meal.
She has used this trick many times and it always works.
There shouldn't be any exception this time.
However, what Taoyao had never expected was that facing her pitiful appearance, Xi Luo not only did not show any sympathy or signs of softness.
On the contrary, the smile on that face became even more weird and creepy.
The arc of Shiloh's mouth corners turned up even more, but that smile revealed a creepy malice.
His eyes were filled with twisted excitement, as if he had seen some very interesting toy.
“It’s just perfect.”
Shiloh whispered softly, a sickly amusement in his voice.
"Exactly the same look, exactly the same voice."
She continued, her tone becoming increasingly dangerous.
"But fake is fake after all. No matter how realistic your imitation is, you can never truly become her."
Shiloh's eyes turned cold.
"Since you dare to pretend to be Taoyao and show up in such a disgusting way while I'm using Taoyao, you must be prepared to bear the consequences."
After saying this, Shiloh took the initiative to attack.
The double blades in her hands drew two cold rays under the firelight and slashed directly towards "Taoyao".
Seeing that her disguise had completely failed and there was no possibility of continuing to deceive, "Taoyao" finally gave up the idea of continuing to act.
Since the soft one is not enough, the only option is the hard one.
Taoyao's body began to undergo drastic changes, and her originally beautiful appearance was instantly distorted.
The long pink hair turned as black as ink, and the originally clear eyes turned blood red.
Her form also changed dramatically.
The fingers turned into sharp claws and the mouth opened to reveal a mouthful of sharp teeth.
The whole person exuded a disgusting stench, completely lacking the beautiful temperament he had just had.
This is the true face of this deformed disaster beast, an ugly and terrifying monster.
The beautiful girl's appearance just now was just a disguise it used to confuse its prey.
Now that its disguise has been exposed, there is no need for it to continue to maintain that false appearance.
What follows is a real battle with real swords and guns.
However, the disaster beast soon discovered that the seemingly weak maid in front of it was actually much more dangerous than it had imagined.
Shiloh displayed an almost insane demeanor during the battle.
Each of her sword swings was delivered with deadly precision, the blade drawing a perfect arc in the air.
Although the attack frequency is extremely high, each movement is full of an almost artistic beauty.
It was like a dance performance, with every step and every turn being perfect.
But in sharp contrast to this elegance was the crazy murderous intent in her eyes.
Shiloh's attack density is extremely high, giving his opponent almost no chance to breathe.
The double blades seemed to have life in her hands, constantly looking for flaws in the disaster beast.
If it weren't for the hard scales covering the body of this disaster beast, which provided protection, an ordinary human enemy would have been defeated by this violent attack.
Even so, the disaster beast seemed to be stretched thin under Shiloh's fierce attack and could only barely hold on.
Afu, who was secretly observing this scene not far away, was filled with unprecedented shock.
She had indeed witnessed Miss Shiloh's fight before, and the battle at that time left a deep impression on her.
But at that time, Shiloh acted very gracefully and calmly when dealing with the disaster beast.
And now the Shiloh in front of him seemed to have received some strong stimulation.
The whole person exudes a dangerous and wild aura, which seems to have a stronger visual impact.
It should be a duel between beauty and the beast, but Miss Shiloh, who is a beauty, looks more like the ferocious beast.
The contrast shocked and confused Afu. She had never seen Shiloh express such intense emotions.
After a few minutes, the fierce fight finally came to an end.
The Changing Disaster Beast had been completely defeated by Shiloh's double blades and lay powerlessly on the snow.
Shilo stepped on the body of the disaster beast, ensuring that it could not escape or counterattack again.
Although he successfully subdued the dangerous beast, Shiloh also had traces of the battle on his body.
There were several obvious tears on her maid uniform, which were battle scars left by the claws of the disaster beast.
There were also some minor scratches on his arms and shoulders, and blood seeped through the fabric.
Although he suffered some minor injuries, he was generally fine.
The most important thing is that she actually succeeded in capturing this transformative disaster beast alive.
Seeing that the disaster beast had lost its ability to resist and was no longer a threat, Afu had no need to continue hiding.
She came out from behind the rock where she was hiding and walked quickly to Shiloh's side.
"Miss Shiloh, you are truly worthy of me!"
Afu's voice was full of admiration and praise.
"If it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to handle it so easily."
She continued to praise.
"Ordinary hunter teams wouldn't dare to provoke a disaster beast of this level."
As she said this, Afu's gaze fell on the disaster beast that was being stepped on by Shiloh and was still moving slightly.
Although it has been subdued, the beast is obviously still alive and has only temporarily lost its ability to move.
"Now that we've successfully captured our target, the next step is to find a way to report back and collect the bounty."
Afu continued, excitement evident in her tone.
"That's a lot of money, enough for us to live a good life for a long time."
Her eyes revealed her anticipation for the generous reward that was about to come.
After hearing Afu's words, Shiloh was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something important.
Then she asked.
"If I remember correctly, this type of disaster beast should be a new species that has just appeared recently, right?"
There was a hint of inquiry in Shiloh's tone.
In response to Shiloh's question, Afu immediately nodded.
"That's right! These calamity beasts that can change their appearance did indeed only begin to appear after the spatial rift incident in the Snow Country's capital."
Afu explained in detail.
"So for the official research institutions of the Snow Country, this disaster beast has extremely important research value."
"It is precisely because of its important research value that the authorities have offered such a high reward."
After listening to Afu's explanation, Shiloh fell silent again.
She looked down at the disaster beast at her feet and fell into deep thought.
After a long while, Shiloh spoke again.
"Since this disaster beast is so important, I'm not so eager to exchange it for a bounty."
Afu was very surprised by Shiloh's words.
Afu was stunned for a moment, then asked anxiously.
"No... not in exchange for the bounty?"
Her voice was filled with confusion and anxiety.
"But if we don't change it, wouldn't we have wasted so much time and energy..."
Before Afu could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shiloh.
"That's it."
Shiloh's tone was firm and did not allow for any negotiation.
"I will compensate you in other ways for the portion of the compensation you deserve."
she continued.
"So you don't have to worry about financial losses."
After saying this, Shiloh also turned his attention back to the disaster beast under his feet.
Her eyes became deep and focused, as if she was thinking about something.
