47. The mystery of the werewolf
"What are you thinking?" Just when Ding Hao was staring at Althea and was fascinated, he suddenly heard someone talking next to him, and when he turned his head, it turned out to be the mayor of the town, Errro, who was dressed in casual clothes, climbed onto the roof with a wine bottle and sat next to Ding Hao.
"It's nothing, I'm just in a daze."
"No, I can see you're on your mind." Elo took a sip of his wine, "Let me guess, you might be thinking about who in this town is going to turn into a werewolf." ”
Ding Hao looked at Erro with a surprised face.
"Don't look at me like that, I've known since you took care of your wounds yourself, you're a doctor like me. But you see people in the eyes differently than I do, then there is only one explanation, you are a veterinarian. Elo took another sip of his wine, "Remember the look in your eyes when you sent Frank over this morning?" You may not have noticed it yourself, but that look is definitely the look of an anatomical subject. In addition, Frank's injuries are all knife wounds, which are obviously injured by you, and you must have discovered his identity by virtue of the knife wounds. ”
As the so-called people become old and become fine, this El Luo doesn't look old, he has already become a fine, and he can deduce what happened just by a few glances from Ding Hao.
"So what the hell is going on? Why did Frank become a werewolf? Ding Hao hurriedly asked, "How many other people in this town will become werewolves?" ”
"I think you're asking the wrong question." Elo placed the bottle on the windowsill and rolled up his right sleeve, "Look." ”
Under the illumination of the light, Ding Hao saw a large amount of black hair emerging from El Luo's skin at a speed visible to the naked eye, and El Luo's right hand also began to grow and thicken, and the nails became sharp, and in less than 10 seconds, the human arm turned into a hairy werewolf claw!
Ding Hao jumped out three meters away at once, "Wow! With a thud, he pulled out his Nepalese saber and pointed it at Airro.
"Relax, friend, I won't attack you." Elo picked up the bottle and took a sip, his mutated arm gradually returning to its original state, "You don't need to be so scared. ”
"What the hell is going on?" Ding Hao tried his best to make his voice calmer, and the change in El Luo made Ding Hao understand one thing, his worst assumption came true! This town is full of werewolves, and no one is outside the ranks!
"I think you've been to a lot of places out there, evolutionary you should know, right?" Ellro said.
"You mean that the people in Nighttown say that they are evolutionaries, and that turning into a werewolf is an ability you have mastered?" Ding Hao gradually lowered the tip of the knife, "All of you, all master the same transformation ability?" ”
"That's right." Elo smiled.
"But why would Frank attack me? Why did werewolves attack me when I first arrived in Nighttown? Ding Hao asked his doubts, "And I didn't feel any hostility when I was in the town?" ”
"Well, that's Nighttown's biggest problem." Erro sighed, "The people of the whole town except me, as long as they transform, they are not themselves. ”
Hearing Er Luo say this, Ding Hao understands. To put it simply, this situation is a dual personality, a personality in human form, and a personality in werewolf form, each of the two personalities has an independent consciousness and memory and is not connected with each other, when they become werewolves, they don't remember what happened when they are humans, and after they turn back into humans, they will forget everything they did when they were werewolves, and in the process of transformation, they may stay away or approach others under the influence of the subconscious, so they create the illusion that werewolves are raging, in fact, the werewolves who are in trouble are all townspeople in small towns!
As for the reason for this situation, it is also very simple, that is, the evolution level is not enough, these people use high-level abilities when the evolution level is low, just like some people can produce flames even though they are not at the first level, and as a result, they burn themselves because of insufficient control ability. Not to mention this kind of thing in the game, even in the real world before Ding Hao crossed over.
"Well, it's not a disaster to become werewolves, now they usually target mutated creatures around the town when they become werewolves, and occasionally attack travelers like you, although it's because of the fear of ultraviolet rays, but strictly speaking, they still protect the town." Seeing Ding Hao's doubts, El Luo opened his mouth to explain.
"Okay, I see, I'll try to be as light as possible next time I encounter a werewolf." Ding Hao nodded in understanding.
"It's not a matter of lightly starting with it, in fact, I came to you to ask you for a favor." Feeling that the conversation was coming to an end, Elo finally said what he had in mind.
"What's the matter?"
"I found a way to increase their evolution level, so that I can solve the problem of not being able to control myself after becoming a werewolf, but I need your help." Speaking of this, Elo's originally calm voice began to tremble, "Although you don't look like much, I think you should understand what it's like to watch your loved one fight mutated creatures in the forest like a beast. ”
"Of course, I understand, you tell me what you want me to do first." Ding Hao patted Erro on the shoulder to express comfort. But Ding Hao is not stupid, how can this kind of thing be full of promises, in case El Luo says: Please hand over your heart for my daughter to eat. What to do with this hellish request?
"This kind of thing starts with one of my own experiences. I, like everyone else, didn't know I was a werewolf. But one day, I found myself covered in wounds and collapsed at the mouth of a strange cave full of strange mushrooms that glowed red. I tried to go into the cave to find out, but it turned out to be a mutated bear covered in bone spurs. Ello raised the bottle and took a sip, "I didn't alarm the mutant bear, but quietly slipped back into Nighttown, guess how I found out I could turn into a werewolf?" ”
"How did it change?" Ding Hao asked curiously.
"It's drinking." Er Luo took the wine bottle and shook it in front of Ding Hao, "This is a 3-year-old snake blood wine, 60 degrees, very exciting, do you want to have some?" ”
"No, I'm allergic to alcohol." Ding Hao refused, whether it was Ding Hao before the crossing or the current body, he was severely allergic to alcohol, and he belonged to the kind that would kill him if he drank it.
"That's a shame." "Nightshade doesn't have good medical conditions, and it's in the middle of the forest, so it's humid, and we need spirits to keep the chill away, or we're going to get rheumatism, so everyone in the town drinks, including my daughter." One time I felt so good that I wanted to drink it, and then I poured myself bottle by bottle, and soon my left hand became a werewolf's claw when I was conscious. ”
"I was so frightened that I hid in my room and refused to go out, and it took a day and a night before my left hand regained after the alcohol had passed." Elo set aside the empty bottle, "Then I studied myself, figured out the laws of transforming into a werewolf, and then I could become a werewolf completely." And I was able to communicate with other werewolves even though I was fully transformed, telling them not to attack the townspeople, and to take out their tyranny and bloodlust on those pesky mutants. ”
"To the point, how did you manage to stay conscious after becoming a werewolf?" Ding Hao asked.
"Remember what I said about the cave? The one covered in red fluorescent mushrooms. Elo looked at his hands, "I picked a few of them, and one day when I analyzed my blood composition, I found that there was a substance in my blood that was exactly the same as the one in the red fluorescent mushroom. I collected the blood of other people in the town and compared it to each other, and it turned out that I was the only one with this substance in my blood, and I guess it was this substance that kept me awake after my transformation, or that could raise my evolution level to level 1. But it didn't work after I made Althea eat the mushroom, so the real way to do it should be hidden in the depths of the cave. ”
This guy is really bold, he actually directly used his own daughter as an experiment, Althea will run away from home when she knows it!
"So......" Ding Hao had already guessed what Erro was fighting in mind.
"So I'd like to ask you to come with me to that cave and help me get rid of that mutant bear." Erro spoke his demand.
