"Who else can come to support?" Zuo Lin asked after a pause.

Pauletta shrugged her shoulders and said, "It's probably only Kirga the 'Catfish'." He's been making money in the Arab region, and you're going to call him?"

After entering Ethiopia, they passed through several villages and realized that something was wrong. There have been clear signs of Adeptus fighting, notably werewolves and necromancers. The smell of werewolves transforming into battles and the rancid stench of zombies and skeletons summoned by necromancers in large numbers cannot be concealed. In a humid climate, a heavy rain may wash it away, but in such a dry region of deserts, river valleys and plains, the smell can last for days. Although it was impossible to tell where the battle was taking place or what scale it was because of the flow of air, the faint smell was enough to arouse their jǐng sense.

"Let him come," Zuo Lin thought for a moment, still feeling that he needed some manpower. Now there are only three druids in the group, including him, Pauletta, and "Xiang Rì Aoi" Irina, and a few are squires and ordinary bodyguards who are good but have no experience in dealing with supernatural beings or cultivators. In case of any situation, it is estimated that it will not be able to cope with it. "The Sirens probably haven't even reached the Mediterranean Sea now, and it seems that if something really happens here, they won't be able to wait for their help. ”

If Hermione hadn't been there, Zolin would have gone with Pauletta towards the center of what they thought had happened, no matter how dangerous the situation was, no matter what happened, with their ability, at least it would be okay to escape. And now, it's not just about protecting Hermione, it's about trying to get around the area where it's going on. This time I brought Hermione to Africa to collect style, and it was indeed to let Hermione see more things, such as lions, wildebeests, cheetahs, zebras, crocodiles, antelopes, baboons, vultures, and so on. But in their rì, there doesn't seem to be an intent to include items like werewolves, vampires, and necromancers. If Zolin and Pauletta were the tour guides, then if Hermione saw the werewolf or something, even if it was exposing company secrets, it would be a big loss.

"Let's set up camp first, and we'll look in that direction in the evening. Rubbing his chin in the direction the smell came from, Zuo Lin said. Pauletta nodded.

"Xiang Rì Aoi" Irina, who has little combat experience, is a little nervous. She is the cherished treasure of the five big and three thick Russian druids in the parliament, it is said that they picked up the abandoned baby along the Trans-Siberian Railway, and from the age of 3, the ** husband sent Irina to the headquarters to be taught by Bernard. Russian druids are basically the kind of animal druids who are good at fighting and transfiguration, good at tracking and long-distance running, and there has not been a Russian botanical druid and spell druid born for more than 100 years. Although it was the Russian druids who stepped up to suppress the scene in a forceful manner during the weakest time of the Druid Council, they were always ridiculed for being well-limbed and simple-minded. And Irina is a little girl who has high hopes for her husband and others. Irina is only 17 years old, less than a year after passing the trials of the druids. Now, every Druid Cadet who has passed the Trial can choose whether to stay in the same location and play a role as the seed that the Druid sowed to the world after returning to his birthplace for six months to a year, or enter the Operations Division, or the Intelligence Division to work at the Headquarters. And Irina, it's the ** husband who insists on moving. If it weren't for the fact that it was inconvenient for a large group of men to bring a Hermione, and they had to bring a relatively reliable girl, they might not have brought Irina, a guy who had solid theory and technology, but had no combat experience at all. Regardless, a botanical druid is here, and at least while the two of them are out scouting, defense is not a problem.

"Irina, take care of the surrounding defenses, we'll be back in about 2 to 3 hours. After giving Irina this advice, Zorin and Pauletta left the camp. They set up camp against a small hill, and without causing panic among the others, several cars were parked in an arc, and the bodyguards' tents surrounded Hermione's tent in the middle. It's just a form of security, but it's at least a lot more reassuring.

After leaving the camp, Zolin and Pauletta immediately transformed. Pauletta still uses the transformation of the tiger that she is most accustomed to, and now, she is no longer a rookie in Transfiguration, and Zolin, who has learned a lot from Emile, also uses the transformation technique of the feline: the lion. This transformation, which is commensurate with his position, has more explosive power and stamina than the wolf-shaped transformation, and is more suitable for facing uncertain situations. The two men had covered more than 100 kilometers in less than 40 minutes, and then they saw a village of dú lì in a mountain col.

In Africa, there are a lot of such almost isolated villages. Some villages are closer to the city or transportation routes, and some still have some traces of modern civilization, while others have almost completely retained primitive customs and maintained the lives of residents in traditional ways. A village is sometimes a tribe, and some large tribes may have several villages in a relatively close area.

The village seemed too quiet, and it was a bit strange that there was no fire at night, and there was no young people in the village. But for such a scene, whether it is Zuo Lin or Pauletta, it seems that they are mentally prepared. They turned back into human form and slowly walked into the village.

The humble complex was clearly ravaged by great force, and the small wooden buildings and rammed earth houses were not so balanced, but they faithfully recorded the whole process of the battle. Those claw marks, blood marks, and sluggish zombies were rubbed off the flesh of the ** everywhere. On one side of the village, another hastily dug pit filled with corpses.

"It looks like the people of the Dark Council have been gone for a while. While carefully searching for clues in the village, the two discussed.

"Wait, here. Pauletta, who was very familiar with indigenous African cultures, stopped, and pulled Zolin to look around a extinguished fire. There is still a faint residue of mineral sand pigment on the ground that has not been cleaned. "This is a ritual to bless the warriors of the tribe. They are brave. They are only used in times of unforeseen crisis, or in the face of war, in the face of natural disasters. Similar to the magic pattern, but the African indigenous culture and black witchcraft are closely combined, often in addition to the enhanced magic pattern, and then seal a part of the soul of the tribe's previous great warriors in the warrior's body. The natives thought that this would make the warrior fearless and not afraid of evil, but in fact, the fluctuation of the soul was adjusted, so that the warrior could not be disturbed by necromancy and puppetry, which was very unsystematic, but it was a very powerful and effective spell. ”

"But there seems to be no signs of fighting in the village, it is obviously a one-sided situation, it is a massacre. Zuo Lin said.

"There's only one explanation, they tell the warriors representing the clan's power to call for help, or, knowing that something is wrong, they report to the other clans. Pauletta picked up a pinch of dirt and sniffed it, and he couldn't mistake the smell of the paint.

"Where can they report to?" Zuo Lin thought carefully. He knew that the relationship between these tribes and the surrounding tribes was very complicated, and maybe different tribes had their own strengths, and maybe there would be some mutual trade, but now because as long as they can get in touch with the outside world and enter the city, they can buy almost everything they need, and the competition for living space between tribes and villages has become a theme. If you want to report the situation, you can only go through the most powerful earth king, or the powerful great wizard. However, it has been a long time since I heard anything about both.

"There's only one option. If I were an elder of the tribe, I would have chosen to go to this place as well. Pauletta thought of a place, "Larry Bella, which is the center of Christianity in Africa." ...... from here It's a little far, but it's worth seeing. ”

In Africa, Pauletta's opinion is very authoritative. Especially in Ethiopia, Pauletta stayed here for more than a year, photographing several topics. Zolin almost immediately agreed to Pauletta's suggestion, and after quietly returning to the camp, Irina came to report that someone had peeked into the camp, but left without attempting to attack. She didn't dare to chase after her without permission, and she didn't know which person was coming.

"No matter, go to Larribela. If someone followed, it would be the direct action of the Dark Council, no, knocking unconscious and throwing it on the side of the road. Zuo Lin did not hesitate and directly gave such instructions.

Larribella was also quite a distance from their current camp, and they set off early the next morning. On their journey through Africa, Hermione had been running around with them, not having to ask questions about where to go tomorrow, and seeing something new every day. Although the atmosphere of the team was somewhat solemn, Zolin explained that Ethiopia had a tense relationship with its neighbors, and that it was too close to the more prosperous parts of the Mediterranean, so it was invaded by many colonists, and there were many weapons that were scattered among the people, and they were not officially protected travelers and explorers, so they had to be careful in their own affairs. Hermione wasn't convinced, but she was somewhat relieved.

After almost a day of jolting in the jeep, they finally came to the surrounding area of La Ribeira. In many of Africa's relatively pristine areas, the journey from one settlement to another can be lonely, but every time you arrive at a new location, there are always surprises. Laribera was a bustling area in the heart of Christianity in Africa, but before they saw the ready-made roads and other people's cars, they first saw tribal sentries hiding in the grass and treetops, watching nervously with rudimentary, unpainted wooden bows, spears on their backs, or blowguns in hand, watching them carefully.

"Why are you here?" Pauletta, who had turned a blind eye to the warriors from various tribes, pulled the car to the side of the road and pulled a skinny black boy out of the grass. Pauletta's face was full of surprise.
