After arriving at Nana's house, Yujali first introduced everyone to each other, and then went straight to the point. Miria was the first to ask, "Do you usually have any good friends or people who don't get along?" ”

Nana thought for a moment and said, "There shouldn't be any of this." Both of us grew up in an orphanage, and we had almost no friends or relatives. When I was young, I had some good friends in the orphanage, but they had gone their separate ways a long time ago, and now they are basically scattered to unknown places. ”

Miria nodded and continued, "Then since your husband disappeared, has anything strange happened?" No matter how small? ”

"This ......," said the woman, frowning, "to say strange things." Ever since he disappeared, the corpses of some wild beasts have been present in my family's fields every now and then, I don't know if they count. ”

"And this?" Miria was surprised and asked, "What kind of beast?" ”

"Basically, it's some wild boars, wild deer, and sometimes some hares." Nana replied. "At first, I thought it was someone who had left it there, but when I asked people in the village, they all said they didn't know. I left it in the field for a while and no one took it, so I cooked them all. ”

"Never seen who put it?" Miria asked.

"Not really, I usually show up in the field in the morning."

"Do you know what happened to the Li family later?" Miria asked.

"I've heard about some, it seems that many people in the Li family were killed not long ago. People from the Guild Alliance have also come to ask me about it before, and some adventurers who have accepted other commissions have also talked to me about it later. But I really don't know that since my husband disappeared, I have mostly stayed in the village except for the occasional trip to the city to buy some necessities, and I haven't been in contact with anyone else. ”

Later, Yugari also asked Nana about some of the other villagers, most of whom were similar to hers. Basically, he rarely goes to the city, and spends most of his time in the village living a life of farming and farming.

When I came out of Nana's house, it was already getting late. Yujiali and the others stopped at the entrance of the village and discussed their plans for the future. Miria said, "I think there's something strange about the beast's corpse, and we can leave someone there to watch over it and see who put it." ”

"I think so." Brala said.

"Alright, let's be guarded by Brala today." Miria said.

"......" Blala showed a look of wanting to go crazy.

"Actually, if it is possible for her husband to hide in the forest, she can ask Li Yaqi to look for it." Konya said.

"How is this possible?" Li Yaqi retorted.

"Isn't it possible?"

"Of course! The forest is so big, I can't run it all when I'm tired! Li Yaqi said.

"Alright. So let's do it for today. At night, Blala and Yaqi were in charge of guarding the fields, and the others went back to the inn to study the details to see if they had missed anything, and then we would meet at the entrance of the village tomorrow morning. How's that? Eugari asked.

"Do I stay too?" Li Yaqi asked, pointing to her nose.

"yes, you can't leave Brala alone. Also, you don't have to just sleep anymore. Eugari said disdainfully.

"Uh...... I see. Li Yaqi replied reluctantly.

So, except for the unhappy Li Yaqi and the bulging mouth to express dissatisfaction, everyone returned to the hotel first.

Back at the hotel, having dinner and soaking in the bath, Yugari lay down on the bed relaxedly, looked at the ceiling, and asked Milia, who was also lying on the bed not far away, "Does it matter?" I mean let Brala stay there. ”

"Well, that's fine." Miria explained, "Don't look at her as a dumb look, she's actually pretty good. And she is very fond of being active at night. It's not just fighting, sometimes she often goes out at night alone, maybe it's because of her physique. In the past, when we went out together, she was in charge of the night work. ”

"Did she come with her family? I mean, isn't the Clarley homeland at the southernmost tip of the Western Continent? Eugari asked.

"They migrated to the human continent with a group of their clansmen, and I don't know the specific situation. Because I was still young at that time, I didn't ask in detail. Later, I asked Brala, and she didn't remember much at the time. So that's it. Let's take a closer look at it later when we have a chance. After all, the history of the Clari is also an important record of the Oasis Continent. Miria replied, "As for her family...... I don't think I've seen it before. When she came, an old grandfather of the clan sent her, and I asked my father about it, but he didn't tell me anything. Brala herself hadn't mentioned it much. ”

"That's a mystery." Yugari said curiously, "Then we have a chance to ask her together, shall we?" ”

"Yes. Actually, I would like to visit her hometown one day. When the time comes, right? ”

"Okay. I'm looking forward to it. Yugari said happily.

The next morning, before the sky was completely light, Yujiali and the others came to the entrance of the village early. Brala spoke first, "No. Nothing happened yesterday. ”

"Where's Yaqi? Did you notice anything unusual last night? Eugari asked.

"No, I don't. Nobody. Li Yaqi pouted and said, "Declare it in advance, I've been staring at it all night." I didn't sleep lazy. ”

"What now?" Blana asked.

"It seems that I have to continue to keep people in the field to guard, there is no good way." Yu Jiali said worriedly, "Can you track down the murderer based on the bloodstains left in the Li family's villa?" There must be some traces of the murderer there. ”

Speaking of this, everyone unconsciously turned their eyes to Li Yaqi.

"I can't!" Li Yaqi shouted, "I don't have this kind of skill!" ”

Just when everyone was discussing countermeasures, suddenly, Li Yaqi said loudly with a serious face: "Wait a minute. ”

"What's wrong?" Eugari asked.

"Something seems to be heading into the field!" Li Ya replied seriously.

"Let's go, go over and have a look." Eugari said.

So, everyone hurried in the direction of the field. When I came to the side of the field, I saw a gray-white humanoid creature carrying the carcass of a wild boar into Nana's field in the woods opposite.

"It's a werewolf." Miria said, "Strange, what is it doing here?" ”。

"Grab it first." Li Yaqi suggested, "Just catch it and ask directly." ”

So, everyone immediately rushed forward. The werewolf was about to turn away after throwing the boar's carcass into the field, when he suddenly felt a group of noisy footsteps behind him, and turned to find that it was Yugari and the others rushing up. The werewolf was going to run away immediately, but before he could leave, he was pushed to the ground by the combined efforts of Yugari and the others.

"Alright. Conya, just ask her. Li Yaqi said with anticipation.

"Ability and Language Acquisition." Konya chanted to the werewolf. Then Cornya looked at the werewolf like that, and after a long moment, she was stunned and said, "No...... Language barrier. ”

"What?! How can it be! Li Yaqi said in surprise, "Isn't your language mastery capable of communicating with all humanoid-like intelligent beings?" Why not? ”

"This ......," Conya said embarrassedly, "I don't know, if it doesn't work, it won't work!" ”

Just as everyone was talking, Nana in the distance walked towards the field with a hoe. She was very surprised to see that Yujali and the others were in the field so early, and she was going to come forward to talk. But when she saw the werewolves beside them, she was a little scared and didn't go over at first. So Yugari went up to Nana and explained the situation to Nana, telling her that the werewolf was the one responsible for throwing the carcasses of the beast into her field. Nana gradually began to look at the werewolf. However, Yujali found that the more Nana looked at it, the more unnatural it became, and she always looked like she wanted to say something.

"What's wrong? What's the problem? Yugari asked curiously.

"I think it's my lost husband." Nana said confusedly.

"What?!" Hearing Nana's words, Yugari and the others were shocked.

"There are two long scars on his left arm, which I sutured for him when he was hunting, and I helped him stitch them up, so there will be no mistake." The woman said sadly, "There is also a large burn on its back, which he also injured when the house was on fire to save his daughter." These marks are exactly the same as those of my husband. ”

Hearing this, everyone was very surprised, and they didn't know how to do it for a while, so they just stood in place in a daze. At that moment, the werewolf suddenly broke free from their restraints, shook a gap with its claws, and instantly sprang out, running towards the depths of the forest.

Yugari hurriedly took a look at Nana's condition.

"I'm fine, it didn't hurt me." Nana said with some sadness.

"That's good." Yugari looked at Nana, who was full of sadness, and said, "Let's send you back to rest first, and don't be too sad." ”

"Don't you chase?" Li Yaqi asked, "I mean the werewolf." ”

"Hmm...... Let's put it on for a while, let's send Sister Nana back first, and then sort out the information we have so far. Eugari said. Afterwards, they sent Nana home, fetched some water for her, cleaned up the carcass of the beast, and patiently comforted her. When everything was taken care of, everyone left the hut and went back to the fields.

"If that werewolf is really her lost husband, then it's all well explained." Yujiali said to everyone, "It should be that after he came out of the house for the last time, he turned into a werewolf after a period of time, and then went to the villa to kill the Li family." Werewolves are much stronger than ordinary humans, so even if there are a few servants in the villa, they are no match for werewolves. Judging from the wounds on the Li family's body, it may also be caused by the claws of the werewolf. Since then, it has been hiding in the forest. Only occasionally hunt some prey and throw it in their own fields. Is that so? ”

"So it still retains human consciousness?" Li Yaqi asked.

"I don't think so." "If that's the case, I think it should have a better way to get in touch with his wife." Judging from the fact that it tried to attack and flee with its wife, it must have no human consciousness. As for the act of attacking the Li family or hunting, I think it may just be a strong will or behavioral memory that remains in my mind. ”

"Anyway, this commission should be settled, right?" Li Yaqi said, "Can we go back on a business trip?" ”

"I think it's getting more and more complicated and serious." Miria said solemnly.

"What's wrong?" Yugari asked, looking at Miria with a serious expression on her face.

"What's wrong?? The big question is, how did he become a werewolf? Miria said with a horrible expression, "This kind of terrible spell research should have been completely banned by all countries a long time ago. Because this forbidden spell will bring ruin to the human race. It is said that the previous incident in the ruins of Spirit Valley was related to this forbidden spell! That's a big deal! If this werewolf was really her husband's change, then who turned him into a werewolf by what means? That is, this person is not only studying this forbidden spell, but it is likely that he has already successfully experimented with it. In that case, the situation is very serious. If this person is not caught as soon as possible, once this forbidden spell spreads, humanity will face a great disaster. I think we should report this to the Guild Federation as soon as possible. ”

"Since it's so serious, then without further ado, let's hurry to the Guild Alliance now." Saying this, Yujiali immediately led everyone in the direction of the city center, planning to go to the Guild Alliance as soon as possible to explain the matter.

At this moment, Miria suddenly held Yugari's shoulder weakly, and a stream of blood instantly flowed from her purple lips. Miria's lips trembled, and before she could make a sound, she fell to the ground and fainted. As soon as Eugari stepped forward to help, she heard a thud behind her, and Bula fainted to the ground. Before she could react to what was going on, she only felt that the world was spinning in front of her, and she suddenly felt weakness and difficulty breathing, and her vision immediately blurred, and she suddenly collapsed on the ground.

"What's going on?!" Li Yaqi and Konya immediately hugged the blue-skinned Youjiali and asked anxiously.

"Body...... Very ......," said Yugari weakly, "Weak......"

"What to do? What to do? What to do? Li Yaqi immediately panicked, grabbed Konya's clothes and asked loudly.

"Calm down, stupid!" Konya forced her composure, "Let me think about it...... Regardless of why this is happening, let's find a way to cure Yujiali first. So, Conya put her arm around Yujari and asked, "Can you still heal yourself?" ”

Yugari nodded reluctantly, and then, laboriously chanting healing spells. Then, a flash of light flashed through Eugari.

"How?" Konya asked anxiously, "Does it work?" ”

Yugari shook her head weakly, and said weakly, "I think I must have fallen under a magic curse......

"What can I do then?" Konya frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly, shouted, "That's right! Got an idea! ”

"What? Say it! Li Yaqi urged.

"Quick! Call out your magic dragon! Conia shouted to Li Yaqi, "Don't you have a dragon who is as greedy as you?" Call it out. ”

"What do you mean to be as greedy as I am!" Li Yaqi retorted dissatisfiedly.

"Alright, let's call it out."

So, Li Yaqi immediately chanted the summoning spell. At this moment, a blue-green skin, a pair of white feather wings on its back, four limbs and claws under its body, a pair of crystal clear pink eyes, and a faint green mist lingered around it, and a dragon-like creature about a meter long appeared beside Li Yaqi. Around Li Yaqi's shoulder, he kept making a chirping sound.

Li Yaqi immediately stroked its head with both hands and said gently, "My favorite little green, are you okay?" Long time no see. ”

"Twitter." Xiao Lu also seemed to understand Li Yaqi's care, stretched out her head and gently rubbed Li Yaqi's cheek, and kept whispering.

"Now is not the time to chirp me!" Konya said angrily, "Hurry up and let that foodie eat the magic curse on Eugari!" ”

"Don't you say that about my little green!" Li Yaqi protested, and then said softly to Midori, "Midori, go and devour all the magic curses on Yujiali's body. ”

After receiving Li Yaqi's order, Xiao Lu immediately swam to Yujiali's side, took a deep breath, and then spewed out a thick grass-green mist from her mouth, enveloping Youjiali. After a while, it slowly sucked back the grass-green mist. As the fog dissipated, Yujali's blue complexion gradually recovered, and her mental state was much better.

"It's okay." Li Yaqi stepped forward and asked.

Yujiali stood up, checked her physical condition, and then said affirmatively: "Well, I'm basically cured, thank you very much." ”

"Scared the hell out of us." Li Yaqi and Conya breathed a sigh of relief.

"And Miria and Brala, please baby." Yujiali said to Li Yaqi.

"No problem, it can eat a lot anyway." Li Yaqi replied confidently.

"I guess you'd better check on the two of them first to see what's going on." Konya suggested.

"That's right." With that, Eugari went over to Miria and examined her carefully.

"A magical effect, and ...... Two curse effects. Yugari said with a solemn expression, "The magic effect is to slowly affect the surrounding humanoid targets and infect. The curse effect is to maintain the continuous production of the magic effect, and the other is to make the target continuously faint, slowly drain life force, and reduce the effect of being healed. So we should be infected. From the morning to now, the only 'people' we have come into contact with are werewolves and Sister Nana, so it seems that we are most likely to be infected by werewolves. ”

"It seems that there is only one way to let Yaqi's baby eat it." Jugari stood up and said, "Because even if I can dispel the magic effect, the remaining curse effect will still make it reborn." ”

"No problem, leave it to me." Li Yaqi said confidently, "Little Green, go and eat all the effects on them." This time, Midori spewed out a larger mist, enveloping Eugari, Miria, and Brala. Then, the moment it sucked back the mist, Miria and Bralala's faces immediately improved, but they still didn't wake up right away.

"That's right." Yugari suddenly said, "If we were infected by werewolves, then Sister Nana should also be sick." So, Yaqi, you go and help Sister Nana take a look, and Conya and I will arrive with Miria and Brala. ”

"Understood!" Li Yaqi replied briskly, then turned around and returned to Nana's room with Xiao Lu.

Yugari carried Miria on her back, Conya carried Brala on her back, and the group slowly walked towards Nana's house. When she entered the room, Li Yaqi had already put away Xiao Lu, and Nana was also lying quietly on the ground.

"It's all taken care of." Li Yaqi said.

At this time, Eucaria first placed Miria and Blala on the bed in the bedroom to rest, and then quickly carried Nana to them, sat aside, and waited patiently for them to wake up.

"I think I've seen this effect somewhere......" Konya muttered with her chin propped up.

"Huh? Really? "If you think about it, if you really see it, it might be a big clue." ”

"I want to think about it." Konya frowned and thought desperately.

"It will take a while for them to wake up, so let's wait here for now. By the way, I also took a break, everyone was busy all morning. Especially Yaqi, she didn't close her eyes all night. Youjiali praised Li Yaqi.

"Where. Nothing, hahaha. Li Yaqi pretended to be embarrassed and replied.

After a long time, Miria and Brala woke up one after another, and after checking their physical condition and confirming that there was no problem, Eucaria explained the situation to them in detail. After hearing this, Miria said solemnly, "If that's the case, that werewolf is quite dangerous. If we just let it get close to the crowd, it will be a big problem, and we should find it as soon as possible. ”

"That's true." Yugari nodded in agreement.

"I remember!" Cornia suddenly exclaimed, "I know where I've seen this effect. ”
