The griffin circled around and found no fresh prey hidden behind the rocks, so it flew away with a chirping. It was also injured, and it fell from time to time from time to time from time to time, but it still retained most of its combat power. Everyone looked at Kelle, Kelle looked at Tron, Tron stared at the direction where the griffin left and shook his head.
"It's too narrow and there are too few places for hiding. Even creatures as flexible as ghost cats cannot be used, let alone us. No, we can't fight here." His eyes never left the griffin until he watched it leave. "I saw the griffin slowing down, so its nest is in that place, not far away. Well... I already have a plan."
Kelly poked his head out, squinted his eyes and observed for a while. "What plan?"
"The griffin is in the southeast direction of ours, and there is a sparse forest in the gentle slope of the middle valley, where we are ambushing."
Kelly shook his head: "Although the woods are good, they are in the valley. There is no place to run, and it is difficult to hide. This is not a good plan."
"No, I stick to my plan," said Tron. "From the battle just now, this griffin is indeed violent and cannot be seen by the normal griffin habits. Predation is no longer its main desire, so the nest is not a constraint for it. Once the next target is found, it will fly away at any time, so we can only continue to track it. Time and speed are not on our side, so we must seize this opportunity."
He pointed to the sky: "The current wind blows towards the nest, which is good for us. Set a trap in the woods and use the smell to attract the griffin. It is not possible without good wind. We speed up our movements and arrange everything in the afternoon, so it is possible to lead the griffin before the evening. Don't forget that even if the griffin is crazy, it has just completed a killing, so it can be calmer. If we start to arrange the trap immediately, it is possible to complete the task before dusk. We have no better time!"
After saying that, he looked at Kelly, with a little anxious look, but more confident. Tron was ready. If Kelly still decided on this matter, he would also have to carry out it as a captain. Along the way, he thought things very clearly: hunting griffins is very dangerous, so any advantage must be seized and used - the current situation is much better than expected, at least he has not been raided on the road, and there is also a time window for setting traps.
"Then do what you said." Kelly blinked and agreed to Tron's plan. Feich noticed that he spoke faster than usual, and seemed a little excited. Still a little excited?
Everyone jumped out of cover and began to go down the mountain. Feich was between Wumama and Diedlit. He thought about the upcoming battle, but he heard a call in his ear, "Meow..."
As if the soul was pulled suddenly, he suddenly stopped and collided with Diderit. This made him stagger forward and almost fell down. But at this moment, he heard the cat's meow again, just in the direction of the ghost cat's nest.
"What's wrong with Feich?" Tron heard the commotion behind him, first jumped to the side of the road, and then turned around to check.
"I heard the cat's meow, just like I was right next to my ears. Didn't you hear it?"
"No cats are meowing. But, are you talking about ghost cats? Our food is enough, there is no need to make trouble." Tron glanced over there: "One fell into the valley and died, the other one was seriously injured, but it still has combat power. But you can take a look when you come back."
"It's not for meat!" Feiqi thought when these hunters could solve their food and clothing, otherwise they would always turn all kinds of things into food. "I think there is a voice calling me over there. I want to go over and check it out."
"Do you have to go?" Tron looked at Feich, and hesitated. Along the way, Feich performed well, and was older than her, but obeyed orders like Wumama and Ramsden, and never complained. This was the first time Feich made a request.
"I have to go and see. I have a feeling that the voice is calling me, what's wrong..."
"Go, but you only have fifteen minutes. After this time, you can't keep up with the team." Tron stretched out his hand: "Give me the backpack and reduce the weight, you can run faster."
"Thank you." Feich threw the backpack containing food and some camp debris to Tron. He also had a bulging canvas bag tied to the back of his waist, which seemed to have a lot of weight. But this one was not given to Tron. "I'll go back and forth as soon as possible!" Feich said.
"I'll go with you!" Diderit thought for a while and said, "I'll definitely be able to keep up with the team, and there seems to be something fun here on Feich, so I can protect him."
"Fifteen minutes, catch up as soon as possible."
Feichi's gaze stayed on his companion who was going down the mountain for five seconds, and then set out to run towards the ghost cat. He was wondering why no one else could hear the cat's meow, only he could hear it so clearly. This matter was a bit strange, so he asked the Paladin beside him.
"Dili, did you really not hear the cat's meow?"
The elf girl shook her head: "I really didn't hear the cat's meow, only the heavy breathing of the big ghost cat over there. Don't worry, sometimes this happens. I became the paladin of the Goddess of Truth, and was inspired. It was a sound that only you could hear. It came from the depths of the heart, and no matter how close the people around you could hear it. So, you might want to become the paladin of the ghost cat? Hehe, I was joking."
The Cat's Paladin? Maybe it's very interesting, but it's too weak. Feiqi doesn't think the Cat can save him from the devil, so it's better to be a person who can use spells to save him.
Thinking of the devil, Feiqi suddenly figured out why he could hear the cat meow! From a human point of view, his hearing cannot be better than Kelly, so the meow that only he could hear is actually the hearing of the devil! The essential power of the contract demon allows it to hear summons related to signing the soul contract. Some particularly powerful contract demons have excellent hearing in this regard, even if they are separated by the world. The fork-way demon should be able to do it in its heyday.
So, what he heard was the ghost cat's call for contract. So he slowed down and listened intently.
‘Save them, I am willing to give everything, strength, life, soul, and gods, devils or natural hearts, no, no natural hearts! gods or devils, save them.’
The gods do not respond, or the lack of response is a response. The Goddess of Truth is kind and compassionate, but she will not interfere with the natural process. If the evil necromancer causes a crisis, she will show her strength to interfere. However, the physical world's strong and strong prey on the weak and survival competition is natural, and she will not interfere.
For the same reason, the Natural Heart will not take any action. Feiqi wrote down the name "Natural Heart" and then responded to the ghost cat's call as a devil. This response is completed with his thoughts, just like a baby can cry and suck, without learning.
‘I'll try it.’
The ghost cat suddenly opened its eyes, looked at Fitch, and put away the sharp claws hidden beneath it. She was very injured. In order to live a little longer, she pressed the wound under her body. The huge dark body was half hidden in the mottled dirt of blood, soft and weak, surrounded by the decaying smell of death. The fluffy black hair no longer evaporates the mist used for blocking, and the blood makes them shiny and smooth, and even shines slightly in the morning sun. The ghost cat is no longer a hunter in the shadows, but just a lighthouse that attracts vultures and crows, which will be its final destiny.
‘Let them live, everything I have is yours. Devil, I am willing to sign a contract.’
‘Can you tell I am a devil?’ Feiqi stopped in front of the ghost cat, with eyes facing each other. The ghost cat's eyes were dark and deep, and his figure was reflected in detail. Feiqi searched for it, but he didn't see Didert's reflection, which was a bit strange.
‘Are you an angel?’ The ghost cat raised its tail, as flexible as an elephant’s nose, turned in a direction. ‘They are there. Let them live, everything I have to do with you.’
‘I’ll take a look.’
As soon as Feiqi moved his footsteps, he heard the ghost cat screaming in his soul. 'Please agree to me immediately!'
The sharp claws flashing with cold light suddenly appeared and swept across Feich's eyes. Diderit pulled Feich violently, and at the same time he raised the heavy sword, and combined the scabbard and hit the cat's claws together. At this time, her "carefulness" shouted out.
Only a "clang" sound was heard, and the heavy sword pushed Diderit back three steps. She let go of Feiqi, fell to the ground, and then quickly got up. Just as she pulled out the sword and was about to fight back, Feiqi called her: "It's okay, she won't make the same mistake again."
"She? How do you see male and female?"
"It doesn't matter." Feiqi stared at the ghost cat, and the meaning in his eyes was obvious: 'You're asking for help?'
‘Devil, save them, everything is yours. If you don’t, I don’t want you to approach them.’
‘Get out of the way, shut up, wait. Wave your paws and you will understand what is more terrifying than death!’
What is something more terrifying than death? Feiqi himself doesn't know, but this does not affect his use to scare the cat. Cats who can understand that signing contracts with the devil must have intelligence and imagination. This intelligence and imagination can help Feiqi convince the cat himself.
Feiqi walked past the ghost cat with her head held high, and this time there was no claw that suddenly appeared under her black body. Diderit looked at this adventure nervously, and her teeth were fighting. She pinched the hilt of the sword tightly, bent her knees slightly, and made a preparatory position to charge. However, she was confident that she could kill the ghost cat, but she was not sure enough to rescue Feiqi beside the cat.
Fortunately, Feiqi quickly walked out of the cat's threat and followed the direction pointed by the black tail to the edge of the cliff. This was the place where another ghost cat fell. The black corpse was only a black dot the size of a fingertip in the valley. He looked left and right, and finally saw another small black dot on the cliff opposite the valley.
Only one kitten was left, and the others were gone. The last attack of the griffin swept away the nest made of branches, grass leaves and soil of the ghost cat. Now, part of the nest was hanging on the steep cliff, and although it was broken, it still covered a young black ghost cat. Now, the nest was half hanging in the air, shaking in the mountain wind. A pair of black eyes passed by Fitch, looking at the dying figure behind him, flashing helpless and begging eyes.
There is a distance of more than four meters between Feiqi and the ghost cat, and they face a falling distance of more than 100 meters together.
