Chapter 226: Werewolves and Time

My name is Akatosh,

I still haven't been taken away by Sister A, maybe the procedure is wrong?

—4E, 201, Moon of Fire, 2nd, 6:19 —

Early in the morning, as the early day-to-day farmworkers were heading out of the city, Ella and Ria and Lydia left Loristted and set out on the road to Phocles.

"Sophie and Sophie's dad haven't come back, will they not find us?" Ria asked.

"Even if they stay, they won't return to Loristed, so it's better to leave first." Ella drew an eagle with flapping wings on her face today, glancing at the rolling hills northwest of the village.

"Huh?" Ria was puzzled.

"The Imperial Legion is looking for the dragon that Lord Baron has incarnated incarnate, and for safety reasons, he should join us on the road ahead or at our destination." Lydia explained to her.

"That's right, yesterday I helped the inhabitants of Loristede with a number of minor issues in the name of the Brothers-in-Arms, and found that many Imperial Legion soldiers were heading in the direction of Arthur's flying away, while the legionnaires who remained in the nearby camp seemed to be watching us." Ella looked up at the northern sky, and there was nothing.

"There's no way they'll suspect that we're related to the dragons, and they're probably only doing this out of vigilance for their comrades and the forces of Xueman approaching the borders of the territory, but if we don't leave until the Baron returns, combined with the intelligence of their northern scouts, it's likely that something will be guessed." Lydia added.

Really, Ella listened to Ladia's explanation: the logic of thinking, the way of acting, and even the interests and hobbies are very similar, and the two of them could have become good friends, but the problem is that the eyes of men are also highly similar, which is more troublesome.

Although her relationship with Arthur is not so good, the three Wilcas brothers and even Cisco Yue are in the range of backup, but suddenly a person jumps out halfway is different - I didn't say no, you are not allowed to rob it!

Aside from all else, it can be difficult for a two-handed swordsman to choose whether to work with an archer or a shield warrior, especially if the swordsman himself uses a bow and arrow, and the archer can become a berserker.

However, it is still too early to have to choose one of the two, and everyone will have to walk together for a long time, so it is better to rely on their abilities for the time being.

"Oh......" Ria seemed to see something, although she was confused, and her eyes turned back and forth on Ella and Lydia, and suddenly a phrase that Sophie used to say came out of her mouth: "It's amazing." ”

——8:22——

The road to Phocles is very clean, and there is no disturbance from beasts or robbers at all, and Ella can basically guess the reason, in the "Helgen Incident", the number of storm cloaks that escaped is not large, and it will not have a big impact, but the many Imperial legionnaires who originally wanted to capture them have been stationed near Phocles, and when they go around recalling those soldiers who were dispersed by the dragon, they will naturally clean up the nearby bandit and beast lair.

When completing some trivial tasks before, the large tents they saw in the northwest of Loristed were obviously the temporary military camp when they retreated to Dugu City, and in the face of this kind of large army action, those robbers would avoid the road far away as long as they did not go crazy, so the safety of this road was sufficient for a period of time after the Imperial soldiers passed.

"Take a break?" Passing by a campsite, Ella stopped and touched Ria's head, "I left in the morning without much food, are you hungry now?" ”

"Hmm!" The little girl nodded.

Due to the reputation of the comrade group, although Ella reported her identity in Loris Stead just to cover up Arthur's sucking of the dragon corpse into a skeleton at the door, but unexpectedly, it was busy all day, which guy spread the slogan "It's difficult to find the comrade group"? …… Oh, it seems to be Krako Whitemane.

The ice fruit inn borrowed is also completely unreliable, the boss named Muraki actually has a lot of commissions, and he casually said that he had any gossip recently, and poured it all out, if he stayed in the hotel to eat in the morning, and then chatted with him casually, don't think about leaving today.

"Hmm...... Tomatoes, dried cabbage, green onions, potatoes, ......" After relighting the campfire, Ella began to take various foods from her backpack and throw them into the washed pot to stew vegetable soup, Loristed is an agricultural village after all, and many of the rewards entrusted are ingredients, and after disposing most of them to the innkeeper, Ella ends up with materials that are easy to cook in the wild.

It's still a bit heavy, so it's better to cook more, maybe other travelers will pass by, and it's even better if Arthur suddenly falls from the sky, Ella thought as she threw far more ingredients than the three of them tossed, almost filling the soup pot.

"I heard that werewolves will have a big appetite after transforming, but I don't know what will happen if they become dragons." Lydia suddenly snapped into words.

"Of course it's more serious, at least twenty times." Ella's movements paused, remembering that the two dragons flew away together last night, and although it seemed to be carrying money, could they really buy enough to eat? I don't think I'm really going to eat mammoths.

"What people! Hold it! ”

Ella came back to her senses, a little annoyed at the slight loss of her vigilance, but she didn't hesitate to take her bow and arrow and aim at the target that Lydia was confronting—a ragged and unkempt young Nord male who looked like an ordinary farm worker, staring directly at the vegetable soup pot.

"No, I'm not a robber, I want to buy your food, I, I'll pay—" He said incoherently, and pulled out a money bag, but his hands trembled for unknown reasons, and he shook out several gold coins and dropped them on the ground, during which his gaze was fixed on the soup pot without taking his eyes off the pot at all.

While ordinary people would think he was just hungry, Ella was all too familiar with the situation - it was obvious that the wild werewolf was overloaded with movement in the transformed state, and after returning to his original state, he was dominated by overwhelming hunger, and this was the reason for most of the casualties caused by the werewolf and the panic caused by ordinary people.

However, even though he was close to losing control, the fact that he still tried to negotiate instead of pounced on him was enough to prove that his self-control was amazing, otherwise Ella would have killed him directly.

"Ria, serve him soup." Ella winked at Lydia as she spoke, and together they walked to the werewolf's side, promising to subdue him instantly if he burst out and hurt someone.

"Uncle, slow down, hot." Ria obediently handed out a large bowl of soup to the Nord, and to Ella's relief, the little girl secretly held the dagger in the palm of her hand, but if the other party had the intention of hurting someone, the knife was useless.

"And, yes." After the werewolf drank the vegetable soup with a clatter, his eyes showed some signs of movement, but he still handed out the bowl again.

After getting the food, the werewolf was mostly safe, but Ella and Ladia still kept him in check.

"Uh...... ......After pouring five bowls of vegetable soup, the man, who had recovered slightly, seemed to be aware of his condition and was ready to explain.

"Where are you from? Werewolf? Have you ever hurt anyone? Ella's words froze him in place.

"You'd better not try to lie or resist, it's useless." Lydia even raised her ebony sword, which she barely used.

"I, my name is Sindin, I'm from Phocles," the man's voice trembled, "When the Imperial Legion withdrew, they said they were going to put me to death, and I, I ran away." ”

"Sindin......?" Ria tilted her head.

Sindin looked at the little girl, her eyes seemed to fluctuate a little, but the next moment it was already hidden.

"I, I tore apart a little girl uncontrollably a dozen days ago, my employer's daughter, and I thought I could pay for her life, but I'm a coward, and it......'s okay now," he hung his head, completely giving up resistance.

What to do? Do you want to kill it? Ella and Ladia exchanged glances.

Unlike the Brothers-in-Arms, if a wild werewolf has killed a person, it will also include humans in the range of prey when the next transformation gets out of control, such a werewolf is also known as a "bloodthirsty werewolf", and is the main target of Silverhand, even if he seems to have self-control now, but it is difficult to say after losing control.

"Please don't hurt Sindin," Ria said suddenly, "he got out of control because of the Ring of Helsing. ”

"What?" Hearing this, Ella looked at Sindin's hands, he did have a large metal ring on the index finger of his right hand, but there were no magic fluctuations, let alone the divine power of the artifact.

"And he didn't hurt me either—" Ria added.

"Lavisia!?" The glint that had disappeared before in Sindin's eyes returned, and he stared at the little girl tightly: "I haven't seen you grow so tall for ten days, I thought it was just a lot of similarity-"

"No~It's been a year~" Ria shook her head and served him another bowl of soup.

What's going on?

Ella frowned and watched the two interact, she could confirm that Riya, or Lavisia, was brought to the Comrades by Whitemane a year ago, and she had not gone out at all during that time, and ten days ago was the day she and Arthur met, and the giant who stole the yak impressed her, and she could never be mistaken.

So, if it weren't for the fact that this werewolf had been locked up for a year and her memory was confused, or who had saved her in that incident and sent her to her comrades-in-arms a year ago, which Holy Spirit or Demon God would do such a boring thing? What about the purpose?

"Sister Ella, we're out to lift the werewolf curse, right? Can you bring Sindin? Ria turned her head to look at Ella.

Could this be the reason? In order for us to be exposed to the werewolf curse, he can be present? Ella looked at Lydia, who was also confused, and nodded hesitantly.
