Chapter 164: The Harpy Butcher
Zi Youge: "We succeeded" Vanessa and Katrina were ecstatic, and they didn't care about the hunt, and the remaining Harpy birds hugged each other directly, "You are so smart" Katrina gave Vanessa a great look up, and from this point of view, the girl's face was as white as an angel, and the beautiful princess almost couldn't hold it
"Help, help," someone shouted for help in the firelight
"Ahh
The man on the ground had a scorched face, and he couldn't tell how old he was, but he could be heard from his voice that he was no more than thirty miles away, and the black brocade robe was torn from the front chest to the back, and he wore a half-cloak made of gold thread, and fastened it with a red iron buckle on the outer wheel, but by this time it had been dragged out of shape in the scorched earth
"That's it," shouted a happie behind him, and the other members who were hiding in the shadows rushed up, Vanessa couldn't help but shrink her neck, thinking that they would be attacking herself, but otherwise they rushed towards the man on the ground in a rage, and their sharp claws scratched at him
"Help me, don't just look at me, help me," the man let out a terrible wail under the attack of the happybird, and Katrina was about to try her new magic again, and when she heard this, she happily released twelve boomerangs, which pierced through the happik's beautiful skin, and in exchange for them to curse loudly, but none of them stopped and continued to torture the man on the ground
"Something is wrong," Vanessa stopped Katrina's second attack, "They seem to hate this man for what he did to them"
"Whatever he did, I believe it was right"
"Why?" Vanessa asked with interest
Katrina pointed at the Harpy Bird and then at herself, "Obviously he's human, and they're not."
"If you don't belong to my race, your heart will be different," Vanessa spat out a phrase that no one understood, and nodded thoughtfully
Katrina didn't see death and didn't save her, her flying sword pierced through all the Harpy birds, and the man on the ground was nailed to the tree like a moth, and the man on the ground was covered in blood and flesh and rolled out horribly, so that he was still alive and was dragged by Vanessa on the red stone away from the flames
"Bandage me quickly, I don't want to die," the man held out his hand to Katrina, "Please, beautiful young lady"
"Wait a minute," Vanessa gently stood in front of Katrina and bowed gracefully to the man, "please tell me what happened here and how many people are trapped in that fire."
"No one, no one," the man waved his hand, and opened the next narrative with a choking cough, "I was attacked by the Harpy Birds, these inhuman animals, they destroyed my house and set it on fire, I am so glad I met you two kind people, otherwise I would have become a roast pig."
"Wait, you don't say why the Happie Bird came all the way from the Land of Legends to your cabin," Vanessa looked at the man's dress, and had some clue in mind
"Will you save me," the man said impatiently, "will answering the question make my pain less?"
"But not answering will make the pain worse," Vanessa raised her foot and kicked him on the stomach, "We are not good people, I just want the truth," he reached out and pulled the man's golden cloak, "and treasures"
"Treasure," the man's cunning yellow eyes turned and denied, "I don't have any treasures, and even if I do, I was burned by the Harpy Bird."
"You still have to answer my original question: why did those birdmen burn your house?"
"Because They Covet My Riches"
"Make up a reason," Vanessa flew up and kicked the man in the jaw, so that he could speak with wind from now on, "like they peep at your beauty or something"
"Okay, okay," the man saw that no one was around, and the pain was terrible, so he had to admit his crime, "I was born with the magic that could make the Harpy Bird pay attention, and whenever I urged the magic, one or two were always attracted to it, so I started to slaughter them, I tricked them into the basement to kill them, took out the magic crystal in their hearts, and then sold them."
"See, not all of the same kind are human," Vanessa said to Katrina behind her, "Do you still think he's doing the right thing," the girl shook her head and looked no longer at the man on the ground in disgust
"You don't want to leave me alone," the man held out his hand to Katrina again, "I know it's cruel for me to do this, but I also have to eat, and I use my magic to fend for myself, and that's fine."
"But what you use for a living is our life" Behind her, a huge happy bird suddenly rose from the flames, her wings were on fire, and her bright red tongue of fire was like a phoenix born from fire, "This despicable villain, things are not at all what he said" Although the happi bird's face and body were on fire, under the licking of the flames, it still showed a breathtaking beauty that was close to the gods
Katrina took a step back and nervously pulled up the fighting stance
"Now let's hear from the other side," Vanessa said, spreading her hands and inviting the flaming Harpy Bird
"In the beginning, when he was a child, we were only drawn by his magic, and came from our peaceful home to play with him; But when he came of age, his magic made us fall in love with him irrepressibly, and we came to him from thousands of miles away, but we accepted his slaughter with love for him, and the magic crystals were our hearts that loved him, and the last tears we shed," the princess glared at the man on the ground, the executioner who played with feelings, and even Vanessa felt disgusted, and the bird continued: "Our Harpy clan was originally a failure of human genetic modification in ancient times, not a heinous monster in your mouth, we have lived in our homeland for generations, but today we were slaughtered by this man for no reason, so we found a reversal magic, in order to find this magic, we almost lost half of our race, today I came here to cast this spell on this man, he became the object of hatred of the Harpy clan for generations, so today I must complete this matter, please don't stop you"
"I didn't say I'm going to stop you, please," Vanessa stepped out of the way
"Why are you saving me," the man on the ground was about to collapse
The big bird in the sky screamed and rushed into the air, and then rushed down like an arrow from the string, and the flames on its body pierced the night, like two proud masts marching hand in hand
"Really don't save him," Katrina asked the princess nervously
Vanessa admired the fire show in front of her, and a smile hung on her lips
