Chapter 223: The Watcher's Hometown
"According to the map, there is the nearest village to the sacred temple, and I have a bad premonition. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" Bai Wenxuan flipped through the map and looked at it.
Along the way, they didn't encounter any Noxians, only the land they trampled on.
The village is in a secluded forest, which is said to be the home of the watchman.
Lin Yi squatted down and sighed after checking it, "The direction of the leaves in front of you and the softness and hardness of the soil all explain a problem. ā
"The direction of the Noxians hasn't changed?"
Lin Yi nodded in affirmation of Bai Wenxuan's words, "Their goal is obvious, and they won't run away from ...... because of the watcher."
Bai Wenxuan was also very helpless, the Noxians were still one step ahead of them after all, and they could only pray that these people would not do anything out of the ordinary.
For example...... Enrage the Watcher or provoke the mysterious beings of the Depths of Sin.
"Hurry up, I think it's a little strange how quiet it is." Bai Wenxuan opened the Eye of Evolution to try to catch the hidden clues, and there was no trace of them except the footprints of the Noxians.
Lin Yi nodded, "It's going to rain, maybe we can still take shelter from the rain in the Watchman's hometown." ā
Although the sun was shining, Bai Wenxuan trusted Lin Yi's judgment of the weather very much, this guy was as accurate as a machine.
"Provided that the Noxians fail."
Bai Wenxuan said the crux of the matter in one sentence, what the Noxians left behind in this village is very important, is it a disaster or a rat?
Liu Meng pinched his fingers and counted, "No, it doesn't look like it's going to rain...... Uh, okay. ā
Before Liu Meng finished speaking, fine raindrops began to fall from the sky, making him forcibly swallow the rest of the words back into his stomach.
"Let's go, don't waste time." Bai Wenxuan took the lead and rushed into the woods.
The rain came very suddenly, and even Lin Yi was in a trance, and he was silent all the time, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Is there something wrong with this rain?" Bai Wenxuan caught the falling raindrops and didn't find anything strange, so he continued to push away the dense and thick leaves.
"It's strange that the rain was so sudden, and it stands to reason that there is no significant difference in the area based on the environment and the humidity of the air, but my gut tells me that it is going to rain here."
Bai Wenxuan's eyes looked at Lin Yi a little strangely, "In other words, you didn't calculate it this time?" ā
Lin Yi nodded, "The calculation can only calculate the situation that is one kilometer away from the birth. ā
Bai Wenxuan looked in the direction that Lin Yi pointed, that area was still bathed in sunshine, not to mention raining, and there were many beautiful butterflies flying.
"What's going on? Artificial rainfall? ā
Regarding Bai Wenxuan's words, Lin Yi didn't agree, shook his head and said, "It's unlikely that it is artificial, my intuition tells me that it has something to do with that watcher and the abyss of the prison of sin." ā
"When did you start trusting your instincts?" Bai Wenxuan looked at Lin Yi with a smile.
Lin Yi touched his nose, "Probably after learning magic, maybe it can't be called intuition, it should be called perception." ā
Bai Wenxuan could understand Lin Yi's perception, and after obtaining energy from Li Qing, he also had some perception ability.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the four of them were almost soaking wet after walking through the secluded woods, and their shoes and pants were still stained with muddy water.
But the situation in front of them did not give them the heart to estimate their own problems.
"It's late." Bai Wenxuan said three words calmly.
The village was already bleeding, and despite the rain, a lot of blood was gathering and not dissipating, as if there was a resentment gathering together.
Lin Yi's pupils contracted violently, and he prayed silently in his heart for a few seconds, and then let out a long sigh.
In Bai Wenxuan's opinion, the scene in front of him was just a painting, and the name of this painting was Hell.
After a few steps forward, a little boy lay motionless on his back in the dirt, covered in horseshoe prints, and only a piece of skin on the back of his neck was attached to his throat.
Bai Wenxuan squatted down, closed the little boy's eyes, and then touched the blood mixed with muddy water.
"The rain has just fallen, and judging by the degree of condensation, it is no more than a day." Bai Wenxuan made a preliminary judgment.
Lin Yi nodded, "Judging from the basic signs of the corpse, it was probably within 24 hours, and those Noxians didn't go far." ā
Liu Meng angrily smashed his fist on the ground, and the splashed mud flew onto Bai Wenxuan's trouser leg.
"Damn! These Noxians don't even spare children? And what about their glorious fighting traditions? No wonder Riven said that! ā
Bai Wenxuan patted his trouser leg, "Please, this is a war, not a child's play, don't use the set you see in film and television works to measure the real war, especially the war of aggression." ā
Liu Meng wanted to refute Bai Wenxuan's words, but he couldn't hold back a word for a long time.
"In war, life is so fragile?"
"If you have time to sigh, it's better to hurry up and go to the abyss of sin, I don't know if life is fragile in war, but if the task is not completed, your life will be fragile, understand?" Bai Wenxuan walked to a grocery store, and the store was basically unchanged, which showed that the purpose of the Noxians was obviously not money.
Several corpses were lying messily on the ground in the grocery store, and the smell of blood was very strong, Bai Wenxuan found an umbrella in the grocery store and walked out.
Holding out the handmade oil-paper umbrella with Ionian characteristics, Bai Wenxuan silently walked in the direction of the sacred temple.
Liu Meng's chest rose and fell violently, and there was not a single living mouth left in the entire village, which was simply angry and resentful, and what was even more terrifying was Bai Wenxuan.
The man just held an oil-paper umbrella and walked over the many corpses, and this calm appearance made Liu Meng very uncomfortable.
Liu Meng was also a little sad when he saw Lin Yi's expression, so he asked, "Has he always been so cold-blooded?" ā
"Cold-blooded? Ha ha...... Do you think Bai Wenxuan is cold-blooded? Lin Yi suddenly laughed for some reason.
Liu Meng frowned, "What do you mean?" ā
Lin Yi patted Liu Meng on the shoulder, "After seeing a lot, you will naturally get used to it, you should not be the first person to say that Bai Wenxuan is cold-blooded, but in my opinion, this is more like a ...... Reason. ā
"Sanity? Crazy? A village was slaughtered like this, perhaps...... Maybe we wouldn't be like this if we were a little faster! As you said, it's only a day late! Liu Meng scratched his hair a little irritably.
Lin Yi suddenly sneered, "Really? First, we didn't know that was going to happen. ā
"Second, even if we knew, how many people would you save if we hurried over and faced the Noxian army?"
"Third, even if we survive the Noxian army and save this village, there is still an unknown abyss of sin waiting for us."
"Fourth, have you considered reinforcements from Noxus? Forgot about Ningyuan City? ā
"Fifth, how many villages like this are there, can you save them!"
"Sixth ......"
Every time Lin Yi said something, Liu Meng took a step back, and finally had no way to retreat, holding his head and squatting on the ground in pain.
"The reason why Bai Wenxuan is Bai Wenxuan is because he will take all the possibilities into account before you."
After speaking, Lin Yi left the village directly.
After staying with Bai Wenxuan for so long, Lin Yi already knew this person very well, especially his terrible sense, he didn't know what Bai Wenxuan regarded Liu Meng as, maybe a teammate, maybe a chess piece, no matter what it was, I hope that young man can face up to his position.
