Chapter 197: Lupin's Identity
"Sherlock, you're here so early." In the pet shop, Newt, who was chatting with Lupin, saw the druid walking in at a glance.
"I thought I'd come over early to find out a little bit more." This is indeed one of his purposes, especially the existence of the dungeon scroll.
As for the actors of this mission, Lupin and Lupin don't mind Sherlock being involved in their discussions.
The purpose of the game of the Supreme Hunt, the whereabouts of the Santarim Society, the demon elves of Asker Corner, the storm mages of Serpent Valley, the appearance of the Bloody Church, etc., these developments are gradually connected by the three of them under the discussion of the three of them.
There were many things that Sherlock had experienced, some he had heard of, and a few that he had never heard of at all, such as the Bloody Church.
Most of the followers of the God of Hunt are evil beasts, but like the werewolves of the High Forest, they don't like to leave their own people.
Because it is very dangerous for a lone beast to be outside, not to mention the ubiquitous slave catchers, it is difficult for them to integrate into normal society due to the disgust of the world.
However, there is a group of extremely radical believers who have completely abandoned the only remaining goodness in the Marat teachings, indulged in the blood and excitement brought by hunting, and set off killings all over the continent of Faerun, and the organization of this group of people is the Bloody Church.
Their members are mainly composed of various types of beasts, with a small number of humans, half-orcs and barbarians, and their shadows seem to be active in this supreme hunt.
"What a pity for the storm? Lord Silverhand is busy with the conflict between Delnoor and Santilburg, otherwise we wouldn't have to be so busy if we had come with Master Dove. ”
That's the benefit of joining such a high-level organization, many of the things in the game may seem mysterious to the player, but through the NPC's relay, you will find the connection and deeper meaning behind these things.
During the afternoon of communication, various words such as "Ghost City", "Middle-earth", "Mystra" and so on continued to hit Sherlock's nerves.
In particular, the City of Singing Myth Drowno has a heated discussion about many of these points from the rise of the city to its final decline.
The background information in these games is only a very simple description on the official website, how can there be a detailed conversation between the two harpists present, Sherlock can't understand it, but it doesn't prevent him from remembering all these things in his head, maybe when he can use it.
It wasn't until late in the evening, when it was getting dark, that Lupin led him into the depths of the Supreme Forest.
The location of the werewolf camp was not close, and they did not deliberately speed up their pace, so it was not until nearly midnight that the two approached the territory of the werewolf tribe.
In fact, without the NPC Lupin, Sherlock would definitely not be able to reach such a deep place in the Supreme Forest alone, and any level 4 or 50 wild monster on the road could kill him in seconds, but in front of this haggard looking ranger, he couldn't even carry a knife.
At this time, he finally discovered Lupin's secret, this NPC turned out to be a beast werewolf, and his status did not seem to be low, and the scouts near the werewolf territory only dared to watch from afar when they saw him.
But unlike that kind of ordinary werewolf, Lupin can't see the characteristics of a werewolf at all when he is in human form, and the player Logan he met last time still has a change in body hair, I don't know if his transformation is more powerful or he is born to control the transformation of form.
Follow Lupin into the tribe of bestial werewolves, and under the guidance of the werewolves, they come to a huge bonfire, next to the bonfire with a human with a cloak tied to a stake, surrounded by werewolves of all sizes.
On a high platform at the other end, a female werewolf dressed in various bone ornaments sat on a large stool in scantily clad clothes, and three sturdy male werewolves stood guard on either side of her.
It seemed that the female werewolf was the leader of the tribe, Nalno.
"Lupin, I'm glad we met again." Nalono looked quite happy to see the two of them coming, "Welcome to this grand game, the highest ritual of our beast tribe - the supreme hunt!" ”
"Nalono, I was promised to allow people to participate in this supreme hunt, what about those dungeon scrolls that have been circulated." Ignoring the other party's welcome, Lupin asked with a slight anger that he didn't want more innocent people to be involved in the dispute.
"Lupin, it's not your turn as an outsider to interfere in the rituals of our tribe, unless you are willing to return to our big family." Narono seems to have gotten used to Lupin's rudeness.
"I've never belonged here."
"Do you still have to insist on being wrong after all these years, or are you not enough of the insults of those filthy human beings, Lupin, the outside world does not welcome us, and no matter how much effort you try, this will not change a little." There was a hint of helplessness and resentment in Nalono's voice.
Racial discrimination or something, it's too common in a world like Faeron, whether it's the demon elves before or the beasts in front of you, as a minority race, it can only be said that it's already very good if you haven't been wiped out.
Especially the bestials, the nobles and big businessmen of the human race like the most about the tamed beast slaves, and an underage female werewolf is at least six figures on the outside.
"Lupin, don't suppress your desires anymore, you are my most optimistic child, inadvertently biting you back then has always been the luckiest thing in my life, come back, our tribe needs a new leader."
Sherlock obviously saw that the bodies of the four male werewolves around her trembled when Nalono said this, and he also thought that the ordinary Lupin actually had such a big background, although this werewolf tribe was not large, but it was still very influential in the eastern part of the Supreme Forest.
"That year was probably the beginning of an unfortunate life in my life." Lupin seemed to recall something.
"The stupidity of the cowardly, perhaps this supreme hunt will reawaken your blood."
Nor did Nalnor intend to engage in any more verbal arguments with Lupin, so she stood up and raised her head to let out a loud wolf howl.
"Whew-"
Then, all the surrounding werewolves roared out.
Then, the bonfire was poured with an inexplicable liquid, and the fire grew violently, and the faces of everyone around were clearly imprinted in the firelight.
Sherlock also saw a group of strangely dressed werewolves in the wolf pack at this time, and it was obvious that they were players, and several of them he still knew, the warlock wolf blood that had not yet been transformed, and Logan who had worked together were among them.
And he, as the only non-werewolf, was naturally discovered by the other party.
"Supreme Hunt, begin!"
