Looking at Sophie coming and going in the forest like the wind, her body is athletic, and Jestis can't help but smile knowingly.

"When I first picked her up, she was dying, and then for nearly half a month, in addition to eating and sleeping, she was in a mess, and now she has become so vigorous all of a sudden, don't you think it's weird?"

In fact, Norman also wanted to tell Jestiss that just yesterday, Sophie's breath was so suppressed that he was a little out of breath, and today it seems to be like an ordinary girl, which is really weird. But thinking about it, Norman still held back, because only he who had grown up with wolves since he was a child had the keen intuition of an animal, and these non-existent things were difficult for a human to understand.

"It's a butterfly." Jastis's poker face, which had been smiling since Sophie was completely sober, made Norman really not know what to say.

It can only be said that this thing's sense of accomplishment is at work, because he has met a fellow who has the same knightly faith as him, but has lost his knightly status.

"Tonight is the moment when the Crimson Moon is born, and for the rest of the winter, we will face a riotous beast tide. Do you think you can change your stinky temper? If it weren't for your meddling, how could it be so difficult for us to register a mercenary group? Do you need to complete the task of observing the beast tide to be eligible to register? I think everyone else is just helping civilians find a pet. Norman was a little depressed at the thought of Jastis, who was dissatisfied with the mercenary union's overlord clause and confronted the union on the spot and almost got into a fight.

If there is a grudge or a grudge, can't it be solved with a knife in the back? Could it be that knights' brains are made of stone by nature?

"There is no justice in the world, so I will try to achieve justice."

Sure enough, Norman muttered, kept silent, and slowly melted into the shadow of Jestis.

"There are things that always need to be done. The task of observing the beast tide is extraordinary, the night of the crimson moon is the first day of the beast tide, and only with first-hand information can we accurately deduce the strength of the beast tide behind, which also makes an accurate prediction for the combat readiness of the mercenary empire, not everyone is qualified to do it. ”

Norman was silent in the shadows, of course he knew the importance of this task, but he was even more aware of the danger of this task. He's a killer who prefers to hide in the shadows and kill his enemies with one blow rather than face a raging riot of monsters.

"Sophie, stop playing, get ready to go."

"Okay."

Looking at that swift figure, a few ups and downs came to him, and Jestis couldn't help but feel more relieved, at least Sophie was in a good state at the moment, and when she was in danger, she wouldn't become a drag bottle.

The specific situation, Jestis has already told Sophie, apparently Sophie is also full of curiosity about the mercenary empire, and expressed his willingness to join Jestis's mercenary group, although there are only three members at present, although even the mercenary group is not registered.

Ali was still "well-behaved" lying on Sophie's chest, to be honest, as a pet, Jestis always thought that this dog with horns on his head was too lazy, and if he looked cute, Jestis would even think it was a sloth. The problem is that Sophie's appetite has returned to normal since she woke up, and this pet dog, which is only a foot long, still has an astonishing appetite, it is hard to imagine that a three-person antelope hunted by Norman with a trap only ate one hind leg, and the rest was all eaten by this dog, and Jestis even suspected that there was another space in the dog's stomach!

He ...... Will it be heavy? Jestis pointed at Ali, unable to think of where all the meat had been eaten.

"No, it won't."

Seeing that Sophie gently lifted Ali up with one hand, casually swept it around the air twice, threw it on the ground with a snap, and innocently pointed at Ali and said, "Look, the sound of falling on the ground is very light." ”

"Whew!" You abuse demons!

There was a twitch at the corner of Jestis's mouth, he who had seen the monster, naturally he would not be surprised by a dog with horns open, and he didn't even think anything too much about the pair of short meat wings, just Sophie, are you sure this is your pet? I can't tell how much you love him!

Ali, on the other hand, was very slimy to Sophie, who had just been thrown on the ground, and immediately crawled back to Sophie's chest with a flutter, hanging there like a sloth, unable to pull it off.

Seeing that it is the beginning of winter, the mountain wind is blowing, and it is a bit biting.

Today is not the night of the full moon, but the moon is getting brighter and brighter, gradually, a touch of blood, as if a lunar eclipse, slowly climbed up to the bright moon, and in the nearby jungle, there was a wolf howl.

"Blood Moon! I feel like my strength is recovering fast. "In the depths of my soul, Ali's voice was heard.

"What's that?"

"The Blood Moon is the power of the demons to stay in the world, starting on November 11 every year and ending in the spring of the following year, during this period, the probability of the evolution of the Demon Beast has greatly increased, and the Demon Beast has become more manic, and I seem to have smelled the breath of blood. What's even more interesting is that people in this world mistakenly think that it is a giant tengu devouring the moon, so every year today, every household has a tradition of sprinkling dog food, hoping to use dog food to lure tengu and not to devour the moon. ”

Tightening the thin apprentice knight's robe on his body, Security Officer Li pursed his lips, the time of sprinkling dog food is so similar, it is really a parallel time and space.

As the color of blood gradually covered the moon, the originally bright moonlight also turned into a piece of scarlet, as if in an instant, the world became as terrifying as hell, and unknown roars were heard from time to time, becoming more and more dense.

"This is the outer edge of the Warcraft Mountain Range, we just need to observe here for the night, and by dawn we will be safe. Before the official winter, the Warcraft will not go out of the Warcraft Mountain Range. We're only on the periphery of the Demonic Beast Mountain Range here, so there won't be much danger, but we still have to be careful, maybe if we are stimulated by the Crimson Moon, one or two Demonic Beasts will run out. And what we need to observe is the number and combat effectiveness of the monsters that have run out, according to the experience over the years, this is the most intuitive data that can reflect the intensity of this year's beast tide. ”

Jestis, in a low voice, led Sophie over a small hill, bent down, and carefully observed the majestic mountain range opposite, in the darkness, there were a pair of green points of light flickering in the jungle from time to time, apparently beasts that had come out to forage at night.

Suddenly, Jestis's eyes widened, and by the blood-colored moonlight, he could vaguely see that in a clearing in the forest, there seemed to be a wooden platform that had just been built, and there was a strong figure standing around it, and there was a figure on the wooden platform beating in a strange rhythm, and his mouth let out a low roar from time to time.

"What's that?" Jastis couldn't help but be surprised, because those figures were obviously not demonic beasts.

"Orcs." In the shadows behind Jestis, Norman's voice could be heard.
