Chapter 411 Dark Crow Forest
"Hey, are we going out of the way?"
Wang Yi slept for a while, and after waking up, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that the carriage was surrounded by a primeval forest that covered the sky and the sun.
Seeing the deathly aura around, a trace of badness rose in Wang Yi's heart.
"This is the Crow Forest. After walking through the Crow Forest and going northeast for three days, we can reach the King's Canyon. We did not go the wrong place!"
"Yeah?"
After listening to Athena's words, Wang Yi was still a little worried.
Because this forest is too weird.
The tree crown is chosen to cover the sun, and a thick layer of fallen leaves are covered on the ground.
There were layers of black fog among countless tree trunks, and the air was filled with a faint smell of mold.
The most important thing is that the forest is so quiet that it is a bit terrible, as if there are no living things in the entire woods.
"Athena, have you been here before?"
"Of course! I have brought members of the Templars into the Crow Forest more than once. We are responsible for eradicating the pagan evil spirits in the Crow Forest."
"Is there any evil spirit here?"
The word "evil" made Wang Yi feel a little uneasy and curious.
"There are a group of savages who have not yet been fully civilized. They are very strong and like to treat humans as prey."
"They will kill them directly when they meet a man, and then dry them in the air to make them into food. When they meet a woman, they will..."
Seeing Athena want to speak but stop, Wang Yi became even more curious.
"What happens when they meet a woman?"
"They will imprison women and then treat them completely as fertility tools until they torture women to death!"
Athena's words made Wang Yi frown slightly.
In Wang Yi's opinion, these so-called barbarians can't be regarded as human beings.
To some extent, they are more terrifying than wild beasts.
"The Knights Templars are responsible for eradicating these barbarians. What kind of gains have been made over the years? How many barbarians are there in this forest of ravines now?"
This time, Athena was silent for a moment before whispering: "The environment in the Crow Forest is very special, and we are completely unfamiliar with the environment in the Crow Forest. Therefore, the several encirclements and suppressions we initiated did not work. Even twice, we did not even find traces of the barbarians. But..."
“But what?”
Wang Yi thought Athena was weird today and always liked to only say half of her words.
"Although we did not eradicate many barbarians, they hated us at the Sunset Temple."
Charlotte touched his chin.
"Will they still distinguish the signs of our Sunset Temple?"
Athena nodded softly: "Although they are not civilized, it does not mean they are stupid. But there is no need to worry too much for the three of us, because the three of us are not weak. As long as we are not surrounded by a large number of barbarians, it should be very easy for us to safely pass through the Crow Forest."
"Let's take a step back, God sends you here, it's better if there are barbarians because we have fewer people. We can take this opportunity to kill them all and eliminate the harm for the people."
If it were just a barbarian, it would be really not to be afraid of Wang Yi and the other two.
"Apart from the threat of the barbarians, are there any other terrifying existences in the Dark Crow Forest?"
"have!"
Athena said without thinking: "The Crow Forest is mainly named because of the Crow. In the Crow Forest, the most threatening thing is the Crow."
"Is the crow a crow or a wild monster?"
"A black crow, which basically has no strength in itself, but their screams can awaken the ghosts in the Crow Forest."
"ghost?"
This word made Wang Yi feel a little interested. Wang Yi simply left the carriage and sat beside Charlotte.
"There are really ghosts in this world? Isn't ghosts a trick for adults to scare children?"
Athena gave Wang Yi a blank look. She simply moved her body on the horse's back, and then said to Wang Yi: "Since there are gods in this world, of course there are ghosts. After a person dies, his soul will not dissipate, and ghosts can be formed."
Athena pointed around again, "It is said that this place was originally an ancient battlefield ruins, and it is impossible to verify who the two sides of the battle were. The black fog that permeated the woods was said to be formed by the resentment of those who died in battle."
Hearing Athena's words, Wang Yi turned his head and looked around again, and suddenly felt a creepy feeling.
In addition, Wang Yi also found that there seemed to be several pairs of eyes staring at him in the dark.
"Athena, what are the methods of ghosts?"
Athena looked back at Wang Yi, and then said as if comforting Wang Yi: "God Envoys can rest assured that the chances of encountering the crows are very small. I have led the Knights Templar to go deep into the Crow Forest several times, but we have never encountered the crows, nor have we ever encountered the ghosts."
"I haven't encountered it before. What if we don't have luck this time? Let's talk about it, I'm bored now anyway!"
On the other hand, Charlotte was obviously very interested in the ghosts, and she also said to Athena: "Sister Athena, I'm a little curious, I don't know how powerful these ghosts are."
Athena looked at Wang Yi and Charlotte, and was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know much about ghosts. I only know that ghosts can confuse a person's mind."
"Damn the mind?"
Charlotte said softly and asked, "Does it be possible that once you are confused, you may do something you don't want to do?"
"Of course, it's possible that you even committed suicide in a confused way."
"That's too scary."
Just as Charlotte sighed in a low voice, Wang Yi suddenly heard a vague sound of feet stomping on branches in the distance.
"Hey, have you heard any sound?"
Wang Yi was not sure, so he asked softly to Charlotte and Athena.
"sound?"
Athena gave Wang Yi a blank look, "Sir, God Messenger, I don't think it's fun to scare people."
"God envoy, do you men always like to scare women? When the screams of women sound, do you feel particularly accomplished?"
Wang Yi turned his head and looked at Charlotte, but he didn't expect that this woman knew a lot of tricks.
"Hey, I didn't joke with you two. I really heard footsteps sounding in the distance, and it seemed that someone was approaching us."
Wang Yi said this and signaled Charlotte to park the carriage in front of two big trees.
Walking off the carriage, Wang Yi looked around and saw that besides the towering trees, there was only some black fog that could not be blown away by the wind.
"Teacher Wang, we have just entered the Dark Crow Forest for a while. It is impossible to meet barbarians, and it is even more impossible to encounter Dark Crows. Just put your heart back in your stomach."
Athena glanced at Wang Yi and made another gesture to Wang Yi.
Motivating Wang Yi to return to the carriage, Athena continued: "We were not far ahead and once opened a temporary camp. Now it is getting dark. We can rest near the temporary camp for one night tonight, and we will continue to act after dawn tomorrow."
The so-called temporary camp is actually an open space as big as a reclaimed basketball court.
Athena and Charlotte were very skillful in bolting the war horses to the trunks, and then a bonfire was raised in the open space.
After doing all this, Athena came to Wang Yi, smiled and said to Wang Yi, "Sir God, please show your skills next."
"What are you doing?"
"From the start to now, we have eaten dry food every day. Now, please show off your hands and roast a sheep to eat."
Athena had eaten roast lamb before, but now she is completely in love with the taste of roast lamb.
Recently, I haven't eaten roast lamb, and Athena feels bored.
"Not grilled, I'm worried that grilled lamb, such as rough food, will not let your stomach down."
Seeing Athena standing in front of her and still staring at her intently, Wang Yi thought for a while and continued, "I'm worried that the smell of roasted lamb will attract those barbarians after the bonfire rises."
"If it's really possible to attract the barbarians, that would be a good thing."
Athena smiled coldly, "We are worried about not being able to find them. Next, we will divide the labor. You are responsible for roasting lamb to bring them over, and I am responsible for killing them."
Under Athena's tireless persuasion, Wang Yi finally chose to compromise.
A fat sheep was set up on the bonfire.
Under the scorching of charcoal fire, waves of fragrance spread to Athena and Charlotte's noses.
"Sir God, how long will it take for you to roast the sheep?"
Seeing the roasted lamb burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, Athena urged Wang Yi for the fifth time.
"Yes, yes, I'm almost starving to death."
Charlotte also spoke up, staring at the roasted lamb and kept saliva.
"Don't be too anxious, you two can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."
Wang Yi said this, grabbed a handful of seasoning and sprinkled it on the mutton.
As the seasonings are evenly sprinkled on the mutton, the aroma of roasted mutton quickly becomes more and more intense.
At this moment, Wang Yi heard footsteps sounding in the distance again.
"Hey, have you two heard the sound this time?"
Wang Yi stopped his hand and turned his head and asked softly at Athena and Charlotte.
"Teacher Wang, don't be distracted now, okay? If you are distracted, the mutton will be almost burned by you."
"All right!"
Wang Yi nodded and turned around and focused his attention on the mutton again.
Suddenly, a sound of breaking through the air sounded behind Wang Yi's head.
