Chapter 18: The Little Naughty Boy

On the one hand, he was curious about the movements of the Praetorian Guard of the "High Tower", and on the other hand, as an inseparable opponent, Louis Grande felt that it was his duty to find out about Alex Sandra's situation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so he secretly followed the soldiers of the "Tower" to the Grand Theater.

He watched as the soldiers pushed the magic prisoner cart into the Grand Theater, and after a while, Alexsandra walked out triumphantly. There was a little girl in the back of the prison car, her red hair hanging down on both sides of her slightly pale cheeks, looking tired. Behind the prisoner's cart were several strong men, their hands and feet in heavy chains.

Capturing the wolves was a great achievement, and Alex looked forward to Prince Clad's reward, and of course, what excited him even more was to show off in front of Louis Grande.

As soon as he looked up, the "old man" stood in front of him, with a well-proportioned figure, short blond hair, light blue eyes, fair skin, and a straight nose. is a very attractive man, just a little bit of "mother", but this is harmless, girls will still be crazy for him.

"What a coincidence, my friend of Deep Springs. Alex Sandra faked her arms outstretched, made a hug gesture, and was dodged away by the other party.

"What are you doing?" Louie stared in the direction of the prisoner cart

Alex shrugged his shoulders and twisted his body proudly: "Managing law and order, this is our duty, don't you say?"

"What's the matter with that little girl?" Louis didn't take his eyes off the prisoner cart.

"It's our business...... Alex's tone softened, "but since you asked, I'll take the trouble to answer, we'...... Caught...... Wild wolf !!"

Seeing Louie's shocked expression, Alex was really satisfied, which was more enjoyable than ten awards. It's just that the other party's surprise didn't last long, which made him feel a lot less fun, and more than that, Louie's indifferent attitude made Alex very unhappy.

"You also caught the 'wolf spirit'?" In the team of captured personnel, Louie did not find a character similar to the "wolf spirit", but was actually a teenage girl who was heavily guarded.

"It's going to be caught right away, but it may also be rectified on the spot, you know, how ferocious the 'wolf spirit' is. Alex said triumphantly.

"Who is the little girl in the prison car?" If I remember correctly, this was the second time Louis Grande had asked this question, and Alex just hated him, and sometimes the captain of Deep Springs was as clingy as a fly, repeating a question until the other person answered, or read it to death.

But the more this happens, the more Alex wants to whet his appetite. Besides, he really didn't know much about Lucia, so he chose not to answer. In this case, the captain of the "Tower" can only change the topic and let the other party not get entangled. Gossip is the best option.

"I heard that Sir Henry's daughter had a crush on you, but you ruthlessly rejected them. ”

Hearing this, Louis finally reluctantly moved his eyes to Alex's face, but only glanced contemptuously: "This is not your concern!" and then he asked, "Where are you going to send them?"

"Of course it's a prison, after the trial, and then to the gallows, hahaha......" didn't succeed in changing the subject, but the other party didn't ask about Lucia, Alexton felt relaxed, "Ah, it's almost dawn! What a toss-up for the night, now I'm going to go home and take a comfortable shower, and then sleep well, man......" He stepped forward and patted Louis Grande on the shoulder, "You come on, too." ”

Looking at Alex's distant back, as well as the record of "The Tower", Louis was thoughtful. In the distance, the sky was already white, and morning was coming. The wind was a little cold, and a leaf swirled and fell down to his hat. Autumn in Egrem is just around the corner.

At the same time, the temperature drops faster in the Misty Forest northwest of Agrim, especially in this foggy day, when the forest is even colder and more humid. Unlike fishermen in coastal areas, people living in the interior are even more difficult, and many people living in nearby villages still depend on logging for their livelihoods.

Today was no exception, they left the village early in the morning and entered the Misty Forest together. For more than the rest of the time, the loggers worked as families, but today, they have chosen to travel in groups without controversy, as there is a saying circulating in the neighborhood that once the fog rises in the Misty Forest, there are fewer people who enter it.

Although it sounds very dangerous, if you don't work, you won't have anything to eat, and the people will still bite the bullet and go into the forest, but everyone can take care of each other. In fact, they always come back safely. At one point, young people even began to question this claim, believing that it was all bluffing, that it must have been a lie made up earlier by some woodcutter in order to cut down more trees on a foggy day. Gradually, only the elderly believed this statement.

Until that day, a father and son entered the forest alone in the fog, and seemed to see something terrible, so frightened that they never set foot in the forest again. A year and more than 20 years have passed, the child has grown up, it is said that he has found a job near the dock, and after his father died, he never returned to his hometown.

Since then, everyone has started to go into the mountains together, just like today. They held the ropes and looked out for each other. The first person is generally the most experienced, bold and careful, and in the prime of life. Mark is such a person, in the past few years, he has taken his friends into the foggy forest more than once, and he has seen some strange things, but so far nothing major has happened. He is convinced that there are some things in this forest that do not belong to the realm of the human world, but as long as they follow their laws and do not act arbitrarily, at least their lives can be saved.

The fog was so dark that it was hard to see five meters or so ahead, and in addition to the humid air and the peculiar smell of the forest, Mark's nose smelled another scent, a stench similar to rot, to be exact. Of course, in the forest, animals eat the weak, and it is common to have rotting animal carcasses, but this time it seems to be different.

Mark motioned for everyone to stop, and he heard a strange noise, a kind of "chirp" chirp, which no doubt everyone heard, because it was so loud that it was deafening.

"Is it a bird?" speculated Mark's companion.

"No," Mark shook his head, his eyes fixed on the two o'clock in front of him, as he waved his hand and motioned for everyone to step back, while he took a few steps forward.

Mark gripped his axe and cautiously walked towards the foggy front. Gradually, he saw a figure in front of him, a child! He was crawling on the ground, his figure rising and falling, not knowing what he was doing.

"Hey, anyone?" Mark tried to say hello, but the other person didn't respond.

Mark had to take a few steps closer, and this time he finally saw the so-called "child" clearly. It is covered with long hair, its eyes are large and protruding outward, its mouth is covered with fangs, and it makes a "chirping" sound from time to time.

Mark, who has been wandering the mountains and forests all year round, has some knowledge of this kind of monster. It is a spirit that specializes in eating carrion and lives in the forest. Sometimes he will go to human villages to cause trouble, but he has a gentle personality and generally does not harm humans. They were also given the name "Little Urchins".

It wasn't the first time Mark had seen such spirits, he had never found them scary before, but this time, things were completely different. Because the corpse that this "little urchin" was biting was not an animal! Mark hadn't noticed it at first, the corpse was hidden in the tall grass, in the thick white mist! He trembled all over, although it was only a glance, but it was enough to judge that it was a human corpse, at this moment, the fog in the forest began to fade, and as the visual range expanded, he saw something more terrifying!
