"Whew~Whew~"

The cold winds of early winter howled across the moor, and by about 5 p.m. the sun had sunset beneath the distant mountains, leaving only a pale red glow in the sky.

The sky is darkening at a visible rate, the warmth of the sun is gone, and the temperature in the wasteland is dropping rapidly.

In the cold wind, the coachman John shivered, whipped his horse, and the carriage slowly drove forward, and when it reached more than 40 meters before the carriage rolled over, the carriage stopped, the carriage opened, and Anne and Rosen jumped out of the carriage one after another.

Pulling the car door with his backhand, Rosen instructed: "Sister Mary, lock the car door behind the back, don't open it no matter what happens outside!" ”

The carriage is not only modified with shock absorbers, but also has a specially made body, with a 3 mm thick layer of high-strength steel as the main frame, an outer layer of fireproof hardwood, three layers of rubberized tempered glass on the windows, and a very reliable door lock. As long as the doors are closed, the carriage is a safe fortress that is well protected against lightning, crossbow arrows, and monster attacks.

Because the carriage is made of steel, so the weight is very large, in order to reduce the burden of the horse, Lawson deliberately added ball bearings to the wheels to reduce the friction of the axle, and the two horses pulling the car are also very strong, not only effortless to pull the car, but also can run fast.

Inside the car, Mary did as she was told and locked the door.

Rosen clenched the spiral troll in his hand and walked with Anne left and right towards the surviving brunette.

Along the way, blood was splattered everywhere on the ground, and every now and then there would be a corpse. The faces of the male corpses were glaring with angry eyes, and they looked hideous, and their weapons were clenched tightly in their hands, and their bodies were covered in scars, apparently after an unusually fierce battle. The female corpses were full of fear, and there was only one fatal wound on their bodies, they should have been killed by the robbers, and there was basically no resistance before they died.

All three carriages were overturned on their sides, and there were horse corpses upside down next to the carriages, all of which had serious injuries on the front legs of the horses, and some even broke their legs directly, and on the grass in front of a horse corpse, a few dirty thick hemp ropes were thrown.

Anne whispered, "It's a trip. The robbers wounded the horse's leg with them, and the horse, frightened, began to gallop, only to overturn the carriage. ”

"Hmm." Rosen speculated the same way, and he continued: "Judging from the ruts and footprints, the people of this convoy originally wanted to escape, and only after the carriage overturned did the men in the carriage have to rush out of the carriage and fight the robbers to the death. There are about 1, 2, 3 ....... 21 male corpses, 8 of which belonged to caravans and 13 were robbers...... See, there are a lot of extra footprints here, stretching all the way to the depths of the wasteland, and the valuable goods in the convoy are gone, presumably taken by the surviving robbers. ”

From a distance, many of the corpses were hidden by the carriage, and when he got closer, Rosen realized that the scale of the battle was much larger than he expected, and the fighting was more intense.

Anne listened intently, inhaling softly from time to time, sniffing the air, and after a while, she said, "There is nothing unusual around, it is safe." ”

"Let's go, let's go and save people."

Soon, the two walked up to the surviving young girl.

She was obviously frightened, and when she saw the two strangers, she subconsciously shrank back into the wooden box, and her dark eyes were filled with deep horror.

Anne approached slowly and whispered, "Don't be afraid, girl, we are good people and are here to help you." ”

The girl still shook her head, she curled up and muttered, "Eyes! Your eyes! ”

These words made Anne's heart stagnate, although her pair of abnormal golden eyes brought her extraordinary eyesight, but it has always been taboo by ordinary people, fortunately, things like this have not happened once or twice, she has become used to it.

"Rosen, she's afraid of me, come on." Anne reluctantly took a step back.

"Good. You are on guard. ”

Lawson put away the spiral troll, took a step forward, and tried to make his voice as gentle as possible: "Girl, don't be afraid, we are just passing travelers, see the situation here, come and help." ”

As he spoke, Rosen looked at the survivor carefully.

She looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, with a beautiful appearance, her bare skin was white and immaculate, and she had long black and beautiful hair.

The most impressive thing is the other party's eyes, black and white, wet like a deer, which makes people can't help but feel pity when they see it.

Rosen's heart moved slightly, and he instinctively gave birth to a desire to protect, but this emotion caused by the stimulation of the external environment only lasted for a moment and was suppressed by Rosen's reason, and he soon felt that something was wrong.

But what was wrong, he couldn't say for a while.

"Lawson, it's getting dark, the smell of corpses here is too strong, it's easy to attract ghouls, we have to hurry up and save people!" Anne urged.

Anne's words interrupted Rosen's thoughts, and seeing that the wound on the girl's stomach was bleeding, he took a half step forward and said, "Girl, I'll help you up first." ”

As he spoke, he reached out and took the girl's arm.

This time, the other party did not dodge, and was obediently helped up by Lawson.

"How does the wound feel?" Rosen asked.

"It hurts~" The girl's voice choked, obviously hurting

Anne glanced at the location of the wound and breathed a sigh of relief: "You're lucky, the stab wasn't critical, so it just hurts." ”

As she spoke, she also walked over and grabbed the girl's arm from the other side: "When you return to the carriage, a doctor will treat you." Don't be afraid, you'll get better soon. ”

"Hmm." The girl replied with a low voice.

Suddenly, she passed by a middle-aged female corpse, and the girl's body shook slightly, and tears fell down her eyes.

"Who is this?" Rosen asked.

"It's my mother." The girl cried.

"Oh." Suddenly, Rosen turned his head to take a closer look at the female corpse, and the feeling that something was wrong in his heart became stronger and stronger.

After walking a few more steps, he suddenly asked, "Girl, did your father also die in battle?" ”

The girl shook her head: "No, the dead are all my family's servants and guards." ”

"Oh, that's a blessing." Rosen spoke, subconsciously, glanced back at the face of the female corpse behind him, turned his head to look at the girl's cheek, and suddenly asked, "Girl, you should look like your father, right?" ”

"Hmm." The girl nodded slightly.

"No wonder." Rosen's face was stunned.

After walking a few more steps, Rosen suddenly said to Anne: "You help this girl back to the carriage first, and I will go back and check carefully, I always feel that something is missing." ”

"Be careful." Anne admonished, and helped the girl to continue to the carriage.

Rosen flattened the spiral troll and walked back towards the overturned carriage. After walking to the ground, he squatted on the ground, first carefully examined the footprints, and then examined the male corpses on the ground one by one, and finally, he walked to the female corpse that was called a mother by the girl, activated the power of alchemy, and began to examine it carefully.

The most wrong thing that Rosen felt was this female corpse.

I don't know why, he always felt that the girl lied to him, perhaps, the girl lied out of some kind of unavoidable hidden feelings, but anyone with higher emotional intelligence would not deal with this weak girl who had suffered misfortune.

But Rosen doesn't!

What he likes most is to get to the bottom of things, and once there is something in his heart that he doesn't understand, he will follow it all the way until he understands all the truth.

After knowing the truth, he can not tell it, or he can not care, but there must not be a trace of details that he does not understand, otherwise he will not be able to sleep at night.

Just as he was concentrating on inspecting the corpse, he suddenly heard a 'rustling' sound from the grass on the side of the road, and the sound was rapidly approaching, and he was suddenly startled in his heart: "What's the situation?" ”

Before he could react, he heard Anne shouting, "Rosen, come back, it's a ghoul!" ”
