Chapter 2 Angry Wolf Town was attacked
Evian, Shuguang accelerated his pace slightly. (! Win phone bills) Please use it. I hope to find what I want before noon, at least have a decent lunch.
There are usually many depressing places when traveling outdoors. Food is the most important part of it. Although through professional training of the witch hunter, she can eat anything that can be digested under the last resort, whether it is a furry spider, a crispy long beef, a sticky earthworm or a fishy and cold raw fish, she can bite the bullet and eat it. However, under normal circumstances, she still hopes to eat some decent food. A hot meal is enough to half of the fatigue of the journey. If she can take a hot bath and sleep beautifully, her fatigue will be wiped out.
But I don’t know why she has been walking all the way these two days, let alone the boar, deer, and deer, she hasn’t even encountered a hare. It feels a bit strange.
While thinking, she stuffed another piece of flesh into her mouth and speeded up her pace. However, it seemed that fate still favored her. When Evian, Shuoguang felt the wound on her leg felt the tearing pain again during the movement, she finally found what she wanted to find. The smoke in the distance was vague, which was obviously a place where humans gathered.
As she was close, she could finally see the source of the smoke from cooking. It was a small town located in the wilderness, a typical human settlement, with fences made of logs and towering arrow towers. Such defenses naturally have no meaning to the army composed of fairy tribes, but they can still play a crucial role in the war between humans.
She felt a burst of excitement in her heart and couldn't help but speed up.
Like any village and town formed by land reclamationists, there are always soldiers guarding the gates of the town. Although there have been no major wars in recent years, small-scale conflicts are still happening every day. Bandits and bandits, malicious adventurers and mercenaries, weak people are always facing threats. If they do not show certain defense capabilities, any town may become a target of robbery.
When she walked to the gate of the town, she was immediately stopped by two militiamen, both of whom were from the north, wearing simple leather armor, one holding a spear, the other with a bow on her back, and a short knife hanging around her waist.
A militia shouted: "Stop there, you must be inspected before you can get in."
Evian looked up and glared at the two militiamen, and her light golden eyes felt an invisible sense of oppression.
A fairy clan!? The two militiamen looked at each other and stopped, and they were all instinctively afraid. Evre proudly raised his head and humans were humans after all. No matter when they were always so cowardly, she was about to step inside, but at this time, a voice sounded.
"What are you two doing? I'll let you check everyone!" A middle-aged man in leather armor came over there. The man was burly and bronzed skin was half a head taller than an ordinary militia. He had a sword hanging around his waist and a shield behind him. He had a short brown, brown eyes, a clear face, and a unique temperament of a soldier.
The burly middle-aged man glanced at Evian and said in a deep voice: "I am Dustan, the militia captain of Nulang Town. Li Chen, who are you? Why did you come here?"
A fairy tribe? This is very rare. A compound name is one of the characteristics of a fairy tribe. A compound name is usually named according to the energy that the fairy tribe can use. Just like Evre, her compound name is shining light, and her innate ability is naturally to be able to use light energy. This guy with a more free name may use the earth-based ability.
Ivri had to deal with the Cun Tong tribe, "It's just a traveler. I'm going to stay in town for a day and I'll leave tomorrow."
Dustan clicked: "The town has not been peaceful recently, and people are very nervous. You'd better be low-key." Dustan, after Li Chen said, waved his hand, "Let her in. The genius can remember it in just 3 seconds."
Evian was finally able to enter this strange town. The first impression this town gave her was quiet. Although there were many groups of adventurers, mercenaries, and land reclamators on the streets from time to time, everyone seemed to be worried. From time to time, everyone could hear everyone whispering in a low voice. When seeing Evian, their eyes were often alert, curious, and greedy, which made Evian a little alert. There was a proverb circulating among humans that even the ugliest fairy tribe members were more beautiful than the most beautiful humans.
This statement is naturally suspected of exaggerating, but it is not completely unfounded. The fairy tribe members do not know why, and they will hardly show ugly individuals. Even the most mediocre persons can definitely be considered beautiful among humans. This handsome appearance has always been envied by humans. Almost everyone in the human rich and nobles take pride in marrying one or a fairy tribe. Even among the fairy women who are famous for their beauty, Evian is considered a rare beauty. Even in the bustling metropolis, Evian often gives people a stunning feeling, let alone in this remote mountain village.
Although the fairy tribes usually do not value each other's appearance, it does not mean that they do not understand the benefits and dangers of their appearance. In such a mixed place of dragons and snakes, beauty may not be a good thing. It is said that in some remote human countries, people often spend huge sums of money to hire fairy tribes to reproduce for their offspring so that their family blood can be optimized. Even in the areas ruled by the fairy tribe, such things are occasionally heard of. However, for thousands of years, the situation of intermarriage between humans and fairy tribes has long been rampant, and the authorities can only turn a blind eye. Only those families with conservative families still remain hostile to intermarriage with humans.
Evian lowered her hood and hurriedly walked through the muddy streets, trying not to think about those messy and dirty things.
Finally found a hotel, Evian breathed a sigh of relief and walked in.
Like most such towns, this hotel combines the functions of inns and taverns. It is naturally impossible to have good service in such a small place. However, as the saying goes, it is easy to do things. After paying two silver coins, Evian successfully booked a rather comfortable room.
I first ate a lunch, then ordered a bucket of hot water, and took a comfortable shower.
Walked out of the bathtub and wiped her body as white as jade with a towel. Evian reheated the wound on her thigh. The medicinal gauze was wrapped finely, and then put on her leather armor again. Most fairy people don’t like to wear heavy armor. Therefore, the concept of making leather armor on her body is light and wear-resistant. Because her physique is more afraid of cold, it is usually full-coverage. Therefore, it is not so much leather armor as a close-fitting leather.
The leather jacket is made of shark leather, which is very soft and close to the body, which can keep warm and beautiful. The hood of the same material can protect you from wind and rain and hide your face. This will be covered with a short light golden belt, which is made of crocodile leather, with many fragments hanging on it, which are commonly used in the wild. Wear high-waisted leather boots on the feet, buckle the buckle, and a dagger inserted into the boot barrel. A heroic female hunter was equipped with a complete equipment.
Even during rest, Evian was also used to being fully armed and ready to act at any time. This was also the habit she developed when she was a witch hunter. She put her last piece of equipment - a pair of thin and soft black leather gloves on her hands. Evian called the hotel guy and asked him to take the bathtub and asked him to ask him if there was any news about ancient ruins nearby.
After spending only one silver moon coins, Evian got the information she wanted. Although it was not about ancient ruins, it made her know that there were many explorers and travelers nearby recently, and they seemed to have made some plans. This made her feel that she had come right. After hesitating for a moment, Evian decided to go into the mountain tomorrow and tonight, she needed a good rest to regain her energy.
"I'm going to rest. If you're fine, don't bother me."
After instructing the mate, when the cargo plane left, Evian lay on the bed with her clothes and fell asleep before dark.
Evian did not sleep very hard. The training of the witch hunter allowed her to maintain a half-sleep and half-awake state while sleeping. In this state, the witch hunter could also remain alert and could immediately enter the battle as long as there was any movement.
The night quickly enveloped the town. As time went by, the town gradually became quiet, the lights went out one by one, and even the crowded tavern gradually became quiet.
In this quiet night, the moonlight shone in from the window on the second floor of the hotel and fell on the sleeping Evian. She slept very soundly, with a short sword placed beside her pillow, her cloak hung on the hanger, and the moonlight fell on her white forehead, looking strangely beautiful. If a famous painter saw it, he would probably draw a painting for it, but at this time, a black shadow crawled silently on the tiles on the roof, gently poking his head out, making this beautiful picture become gloomy and weird.
It was a monster-looking creature, with three pairs of corresponding eyes on a weird head, but at this time only one pair was opened, and two big round and bright eyes were staring at the beauty under the moonlight. However, there was no admiration for beauty in the eyes, but there was a hint of cold murderous intent and bloodthirsty **.
But suddenly, the daughter's eyelids on the bed moved, and it was a shocked expression. The black shadow suddenly became alert. It raised its head and looked into the distance. A group of people were walking towards this side. The black shadow hesitated for a moment, but still shrank behind the eaves, lying there motionlessly like a carving.
The team gradually got closer, with about seven or eight people. Dustan and Li Chen were walking in the front of the team. They had just returned from guarding the night and planned to go to the tavern to get some food, drink some wine, and then have a good sleep.
"Captain, there seem to be many strangers coming to the town recently." The speaker was a small militia following Dustan. Although the fairy tribe is usually very arrogant and superior, there are exceptions. Dustan is an alternative. He is approachable and cannot see the arrogance of the ordinary fairy tribe at all, so his subordinates are happy to chat with him.
"That's true. I think there must be something going on. But we don't care about that much, just maintain order in the town. After all, this is our territory."
Dustan said as he pushed open the door of the tavern. The hotel room was above the tavern. Today the fairy traveler must be upstairs. He didn't think too much about it. Although he always had a good impression of the beauty, he knew his responsibilities better.
He didn't take the recipe and started ordering directly, "a scone, a pot of fruit wine, and a cabbage soup."
Dustan thought about the food and asked simple, and his men also ordered their own food one after another. The hotel owner hurriedly greeted him, "I have new rabbit meat today. Do you want to stew some and try it?"
Dustan turned around and looked at his drooling subordinates and said generously: "Two of them are included, and they are all recorded in my account."
The militia behind him immediately cheered. When the boss saw that there was a big business, he immediately smiled and hurriedly ordered his friend to go get food.
In the darkness, Evian suddenly opened her eyes. She adapted to the dim light around her. She could faintly hear a noisy sound coming from downstairs, "It's really a dreamy, are humans so noisy?"
After sleeping for an afternoon, she had recovered her strength. She simply sat up from the bed and opened the window. The cold air immediately rushed in. Generally speaking, the fairy tribe is more afraid of the cold, especially in this northern region. However, after years of training, her body has become very strong and she is not so afraid of the cold. She took a deep breath of the cold air at night, and suddenly felt something was wrong. There was a faint smell of fishy smell in the air. Most people might not pay attention to it at all, but Evian was different. Although she was not very sure, she did recognize that smell, which smelled like a demon beast.
Thinking of this, she nervously picked up the dagger made by Han Gang from the bedside.
Meanwhile, downstairs-
"This rabbit meat tastes good," Dustan swallowed the food in his mouth and said appreciatively. "Is there any secret?"
The boss shook his head: "There is no secret, it's just smoked rabbit meat. But I don't know if there are any tricks during the smoke process. After all, these rabbit meats were bought from Baihe Town."
A big militiaman couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Boss, you're not honest. There are eight hundred miles of green mountains outside the town. If you can't hunt prey, you have to go to Baihe Town to buy meat. Don't bully us, you have no knowledge."
The boss said angrily: "How can I do it? What am I saying? I don't know what happened in the nearby mountains recently. Birds and beasts disappeared. The nearby hunters went to the mountains to hunt empty-handed. Some people who didn't believe in evil went deep into the depths of Daodao Mountain to hunt, but they didn't come back. My shop could only go to Baihe Town to buy some bacon and cure meat and deal with it. Otherwise, those guys who were struggling to eat would have no meat to eat, but they would curse their mother."
Dustan frowned. Such things sounded a bit sensational, "Are you saying true?"
"It's true." The boss said strongly.
If it is true, maybe he should have investigated it. He turned around and glanced at the tavern, because it was already midnight, there were basically no people here, only three guys in cloaks in the corner, and they didn't seem to know where they came from, and they looked mysterious.
He walked straight over, "Have you heard any news while walking nearby?"
The three men did not answer his question, and ate food slowly. A militia next to him was immediately resentful when he saw it, as if he wanted to show his intention to lift the man's headscarf. The man suddenly raised his head and showed a cold face. There was a strange sign on his forehead. Dustan's eyes twitched when he saw the sign. The ancestor spirit cult! His heart was filled with a round, and the eyes of the three people immediately changed color. The two ancestor spirit cults were still eating there, and the upward ancestor spirit cult smiled evilly, "We don't want to cause trouble, but if you are ignorant, I don't mind sending you to see the ancestor spirit."
"What kind of ancestor spirits are all lie things. Captain, don't listen to him. I think these three guys have problems." The soldier beside him said nervously.
The air suddenly became nervous. Dustan hesitated for a while and took two steps back. "I can pretend that I didn't see it tonight, but you must leave tomorrow. The ancestor spirit scholars are not welcome here." He said in a deep voice, and when he saw the ancestor spirit scholar nodding slightly, he breathed a sigh of relief. These evil guys should try not to provoke them.
He was about to turn around and walk back to his table when suddenly, the door of the tavern was knocked open and a militia rushed in with blood.
"What's going on?"
"Demon spirit beasts, many demon spirit beasts rushed in from outside the town.
"Demonic Beast!" The two ancestor spiritists who were eating quietly immediately raised their heads and looked at each other, both of which saw the fanatical eyes in each other's eyes.
But Dustan didn't have time to pay attention to the three irrelevant people. He immediately shouted at the stunned militia, "Search the guy, come with me!" He turned around and said to the hotel owner, "Closing the doors and windows quickly."
When the crowd rushed out of the tavern, the south side of the town was already in chaos, and you could hear screams from time to time. You didn't have to look at Dustan to know that the militia who were watching the night seemed to be over.
"You guys quickly beat the gong and shouted everyone in the town, and let everyone retreat to the high ground in the north. The others followed me to block it for a while!"
After saying that, Dustan held his sword in his hand and rushed towards the south.
