Chapter 45: The Broken-Horned Bull Luo

  "It's here." Gallo arrived in front of a mansion, and the guards at the entrance didn't even see Gallo's shadow before they fainted. He walked slowly forward, and with a gentle push from Gallo, the large door opened.

  A white-haired old man appeared in Galo's eyes, it was Pujit, unexpectedly, at this moment he looked a dozen years older than when he saw him at the banquet last time, his hair turned completely white, and countless wrinkles appeared on his face. The most obvious thing is that there is deep sadness and despair in his eyes.

  "You don't look so good."

  "Ah, you've come. Hmph, what's good? What could possibly be good? I've lost everything, my son is dead, my father is dead... I have no more reasons left. Have you come to kill me?"

  Shaking his head "No, I won't kill you. After all, you're Azure's uncle. Your sins should be dealt with by her. But have you already known about their failure?"

  "Hahaha!" Puji suddenly burst into a fit of maniacal laughter. "You're facing that undead wizard, and you think I don't know something? Azure! That little girl, why doesn't she just die?! Everything I have is being taken away from me by you and her! Why did you appear, and why are you opposing me?! What did that little demon give you to make you help her like this?!"

  A fierce roar, Garo was panting heavily, but his expression was very excited, his eyes were almost red, staring at Garo tightly.

  "Because, I like this girl Bi Lian." Galo chuckled "It's just that simple between people, isn't it? If you ask me why, I don't know either, but there's just a thought in my heart, helping her is absolutely right."

  Pu Ji Te suddenly sat down in the chair, picked up a glass of wine from the table and gulped it down. "Is that all? Huh, in the end, I actually got such an answer..."

  "Alright, I'll ask you a question too. That necromancer, who is he? Where did he come from?"

  It's really strange, "How are you interested in him?"

  "Rather than saying I'm interested in him... it's more like I'm interested in the techniques he uses, how about you, will you say?"

  "Skill? You're interested in the skills of a Necromancer, ahahahaha, this is really too amusing." Puji suddenly burst into laughter again, his right hand tightly covering his face.

  Garro didn't say a word, quietly waiting. After a while, Pujit put down his hand "You're a promising strongman, starting to take an interest in the abilities of death spirit masters, haha, very good, I'll tell you, on this continent, there are only two places where death spirit masters exist. One is on the Death God's Island at the southernmost tip of the continent, and the other is in the Terror Plains deep within the forest north of Atmikas. If you're interested, go ahead, haha, by then, you'll also become like a death spirit master, being spat upon and hunted down by people all over the world, haha..." Suddenly, Pujit spat out a mouthful of fresh blood "I... I will be waiting for you... in hell."

  Garo watched as Pujit died, never expecting that the other had poisoned his drink beforehand. However, as he had estimated, Pujit would absolutely not go quietly into the night, and what he hadn't expected was that the other would directly use such a drastic method to take his own life.

  "Whatever, it's none of my business what happens here anymore. Next...". Gallo looked out the window at the sunlight that had already lit up "There's one more thing."

  The village of the victim, Gallo came again, following a faint breath, Gallo searched for several nearby mountains.

  There are a huge number of mountain bandits here, which is still a big trouble and must be solved. They were destroyed by the Death Spirit Master when we came last time, but this time, they will definitely be eliminated completely.

  Although two days have passed, there is still a faint smell of blood on the road, which is enough for Gallo to find his way. The mountain bandits are indeed as expected, heading into the mountains, after all, this is the only place where a large number of humans can hide.

  "Found it." Gallo smiled, a huge cave under the mountain wall, which was really hard to find if you didn't look carefully. There was even a guard at the entrance, but he was leaning against the wall and had fallen asleep. Since he liked sleeping so much, he would never have to wake up again.

  Jia Luo raised his right hand, slightly flicked his finger, and a stream of air immediately pierced the head of that mountain bandit. He jumped down the cliff, used the bandit's blood to draw an alchemy diagram on the stone wall, and then walked in.

  "Damn it, boss, how much longer are we going to wait here? It's already been two days, if I'm stuck here any longer, I'll be so angry I'll spit out fire!" a loud and rough voice shouted.

  "Yes, now it's impossible to leave, staying here is no different from being in prison. Damn, not even a single woman is left, all killed by that monster."

  "Shut up." Another voice chimed in, "You think I want to stay here? It's not safe anywhere before that place. This time, just get it over with, and later you can enjoy whatever you want. If you go out now, you might die immediately."

  "Boss, do you really believe that Pu Jitai? I think he's just a smiling tiger, can't be trusted. Who knows, maybe he's thinking of taking us down right now."

  "I knew that old man was up to no good, just look at how he's working with the necromancer. But what can we do? He's already borrowed a knife to kill off our strongest members, leaving us severely weakened. We've had to merge three teams into one. However, I have made some arrangements - two-thirds of his treasure is in my hands. If he tries to betray us, at least he'll have to consider the loss of that wealth."

  These words were enough; Gallo bent down and picked up several stones from the ground, then walked over to the faint firelight.

  Hearing the footsteps coming in, the people inside were still relatively vigilant. A series of actions followed as Garo turned around a stone pillar and saw nearly a hundred ready mountain bandits.

  "There are still quite a few people." Gallo swept his eyes and found that the huge cave only had one entrance, which was relatively easy to control.

  Seeing only one person, and that a woman, the mountain bandits visibly relaxed, among the five people sitting in the middle, a burly man with scars on his face stood up "Haha, just said there were no women, didn't expect one to come so soon, well, very good, little sister, come and play a very comfortable game with uncle."

  Jia Luo threw away the stone in his hand, and suddenly, the bandit sitting in the middle changed his face "Not good, everyone get up! Kill her!"

  Unfortunately, it was too late to reflect. Garo's hand shook and the stone he had just checked flew out, transforming into a dozen giant stone wolves in mid-air! Sharp fangs, tough body, absolutely first-class killing machines!

  Alchemy, Puppet Alchemy, Beast Mimicry.

  This skill was once used on Prince Kahn, although it ended in a huge failure, but after all, the opponent was too strong. However, this time, Galo's spiritual power has become extremely perfect, and the summoned giant wolf is harder than before, faster, and more powerful. Facing a group of small mountain bandits who don't even have any fighting spirit, it can completely serve as a terrifying monster to slaughter them.

  In the blink of an eye, more than twenty mountain bandits had died at the jaws and paws of the giant wolf. The several leaders were frightened, although they were leaders, but they were just ordinary strong men without fighting spirit. Faced with this terrible massacre, they naturally wanted to escape!

  Just as they were running towards the cave behind, a huge figure blocked their way. A gigantic steel quadruped monster with a height of eight meters! Facing these short humans in front of him, the four scythes that harvested lives, like the god of death, cut down mercilessly.

  Drip, drip, just a few minutes later, there was no one alive in the cave except for Jia Luo. The only sound was blood dripping onto the ground. The entire cave seemed like a hell on earth, filled with corpses and fresh blood. Jia Luo took a look around, confirming that it was impossible for anyone else to have survived, then put away her scythe and headed towards the deeper part of the cave. She wanted to see what was inside.

  The cave is not deep, only a dozen meters or so. At the end of the cave are several large boxes and a nearly two-meter-high square object covered with cloth.

  Ka Luo suddenly frowned, because she felt that inside the cloth-covered object was a very heavy breathing sound coming out. To be on the safe side, she didn't get close and instead raised her head to release several small fireballs, which hit the cloth. The quality of the cloth was poor, and in just a few breaths it had completely burned away.

  However, what appeared in front of Jia Luo's eyes made her extremely shocked.

  Originally a metal cage, inside was an enormous body, unlike humans. Just sitting, it was already close to the top of the cage, making it hard to imagine how tall it would be if it stood up. Its bluish-gray fur reflected a faint glow, its sturdy limbs and thick feet ended in broad, powerful hands with only four fingers. No mistake, what appeared before one's eyes was a Minotaur.

  At this moment, Niu Ren's head was staring at Galo "Human, who are you?"

  Karo took a few steps forward because she felt that this Minotaur had no hostility towards her. "My name is Karo, and you are... Mr. Bullhead?"

  "What's my name?" A bitter smile appeared on the cow-headed man's face "I don't have a name, if you're happy, you can call me Luo."

  "Why? Isn't it said that every Minotaur has their own name and a surname belonging to their own clan?" Gallo's interest was piqued again, and he asked aloud.

  "The Minotaur unexpectedly glanced at Gallo. "No, you understand it very clearly, the Minotaur indeed has its own name and clan surname, but I am different, because I am a cursed broken-horned cow." As he spoke, he pointed to his own head."

  Karlo looked over and saw that Luo's head had a huge, jet-black cow horn on it, which was very intimidating. However, on the other side of the horn, there was only a small piece of broken horn left.

  "I was born a hornless cow, the horns of the Minotaur are the hardest substance and cannot be destroyed, but being naturally hornless is seen as a curse from the beast god. So I didn't even have a name before I was abandoned. Luckily, I was taken in by a kind human and that's how I'm still alive today." Luo finished speaking calmly, it's unclear whether she had truly forgotten her past pain or just no longer felt any sadness about it.
