Lakeside Town is a good place with beautiful scenery near mountains and rivers. The inhabitants are said to be easy-going, friendly and kind. It is very friendly to outsiders, and even many adventurers and soldiers choose to settle here after retiring, and live a leisurely life of fishing, drinking and drinking every day.

But now it seems to be a little different from what I have heard, and there are few pedestrians on the lakeside road at this time, even one or two pedestrians are wrapped up in their clothes and walking briskly against the walls, and the shops on both sides of the road are all closed, and the whole town seems very deserted.

"It's not the same as saying yes." Lin Wen looked around, and the cold environment made people feel a little dangerous.

"It's weird." Thorgeth also looked around with confusion, "No, I was quite lively before I left last year, how can this be the case now?" ”

"Could this have something to do with the Orcs?"

"Who knows. By the way, you can go and ask my aunt what's going on here, and come with me. Thorgeth beckoned to Lin Wen and ran towards the depths of the town.

"This is it." Sogth took Lin Wen to a delicate three-story villa, which was large and had its own garden, and it was very clean. "My aunt loves cleanliness, don't make a mess of the house, or she'll get angry."

"Do you think I look like that kind of sloppy person?" Listening to Sogers's words, Lin Wen pointed to his nose and asked.

"I'm just talking, don't take it seriously." Thorgeth shrugged, then clenched his fist and knocked on the door: "Auntie! It's me Sogers! I've come to see you! "It is said to be knocking on the door, but the power is like smashing the door with a hammer.

After knocking three times, the heavy wooden door finally opened with a "creak", and a middle-aged woman with still charm walked out of the house. Looking at the dwarf in front of her, a smile of surprise appeared on the woman's face, "Sogoth! Auntie wants to kill you! The woman hugged Sogers, "Sogers, how are you doing this year?" Look at you, how thin you have become! The woman groped Guth's bearded face and said angrily.

The most striking thing is the reddish-brown furry triangular ears that shake from time to time on the woman's head, and the fox tail that flicks behind her back is obviously a fox man known for her beauty.

Fox ...... Wait a minute! Thorgeth is a dwarf, how can there be a fox aunt?

"This is ......" Finally, Sogers's aunt noticed Lin Wen who had been standing aside for a long time, and asked Sogth suspiciously.

"Oh, his name is Carré, he is a hunter by profession, a friend I met during my adventures, who helped me a lot along the way, and came with me to visit you this time." Sogth introduced each other to each other. "Carré, this is my aunt Angelina. As you can see, it's a fox man. ”

"Hello aunt, may the Holy Light bless you." Lin Wen gave Angelina a human courtesy to an elder.

"Nice to meet you, may your blade always be sharp." And Angelina responded to Lin Wen with the etiquette of the orc clan to the warrior.

Velvet carpets, leather sofas, mahogany furniture, sterling silver wine glasses, Aunt Sogus's house is simply luxuriously dazzling. While Angelina was preparing the snack, Lin Wen pulled Sogers aside.

"I said, why is your aunt a fox?" Lin Wen asked the biggest question in his mind.

"What's so strange about that?" Thorgeth looked confused by Lin Wen's question.

"Of course it's strange, you're a dwarf, she's a fox, how did you get involved? Isn't there no reproductive segregation between adult races? ”

"I don't know what you mean by reproductive isolation, my grandfather is a dwarf, my grandmother is a fox, and then I have my mother, a fox and a dwarf are mixed, and then there is me, and I also have a quarter of fox blood."

"You also have fox blood?" Lin Wen stood up and circled around the five big and three thick dwarves twice, the standard dwarves did not have strange triangular beast ears and fox tails, not to mention how weird this thing grew on a dwarf, "Are you kidding?" Lin Wen expressed disbelief.

"It's true! Look at my hair and beard. Sogers grabbed a strand of beard, pointed to the end of the gray-black beard and said to Lin Wen: "Look here, is there a small pinch of white, like the tip of my aunt's tail?" This is the proof of the foxman bloodline! ”

, the fox people, both male and female, are as beautiful as flowers, but such an excellent gene is only a tail tip left on the dwarf, so is the gene expression priority of your dwarves too rebellious? Lin Wen was powerless to complain about this.

Soon Angelina returned from the kitchen to the living room with a plate of small shortbreads, and when she looked at the fragrant shortbread, Sogers's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her stubby fingers and touched the shortbread.

"Auntie, where's my cousin? Why didn't you see her? Thorgeth asked, eating a shortbread.

"Your cousin went out to practice half a year ago, and it is said that he joined a large mercenary group, which seems to be called extreme force, and some time ago he sent a letter back saying that he is now at the silver level, and he has become a team leader in the mercenary group." Speaking of her daughter, Angelina was both relieved and worried in her eyes, and she was glad that her daughter was older and could make some fame outside. Similarly, when a daughter is alone, how can she not worry as a parent.

On the other side, Sogers shrugged his shoulders to Lin Wen, meaning obviously, my cousin is not at home, so I can't introduce it to you.

Lin Wen glared at Sogers, do you think I look like such a desperate person? Be attentive! Now it's important to improve your strength.

"Auntie, what's going on in Lakeside lately? Why is it so deserted outside? It wasn't like that before I left last year. Nibbling on two shortbreads, Thorgeth finally remembered the question he had been asking.

"Ugh." Hearing Sogers' question, Angelina put down the flower tea in her hand with a sad face, "It's not recently, Lakeside Town has been like this for a month. ”

As Angelina narrates, Lin Wen and Sogers gradually understand what is happening in Lakeside Town.

Since last month, there have been incidents of missing townspeople in Lakeside Town from time to time, and most of them are children, so the town's garrison began to investigate, and found that some strange hairs can be found in the place where the child disappeared, so he thought that there was a wild beast stealing the child, and then the mayor Solomon mobilized guards into the mountain to hunt wild beasts, but unexpectedly, none of the guards who entered the mountain came back. After that, the beast that stole children became more and more rampant. Not only children, but also old people and women were all taken captive into the mountains, and none of them came back alive. It made the people of Lakeside Town panic, and even several families moved away.
