Chapter 190: The Touch of Darkness
"I had breakfast, bath water, and everything that suited my status!"
Lunou's half-bent body roared loudly, the sunlight shining in from the only palm-sized window in the whole room, he could be sure that it was eight or nine o'clock in the morning, but so far, he hadn't gotten today's breakfast—in fact, Lunou didn't want to get a breakfast, he just wanted someone to appear in front of him and have a word with him.
It was a very small, cramped cell, and he didn't even want to stand up straight or stretch, and the walls around him were made of rock, and he had beaten them, and they were so thick that he couldn't do anything about them; The only light in the entire cell was the palm-sized window, but he couldn't reach it—an iron fence the thickness of an adult's arm, between him and the window, and though he tried to reach out through the crack to touch the light, it was always a little bit close.
Not much, only less than three or four inches, but these three or four inches made him feel like a moat; Especially at night, the window was pitch black, and there was not even a star, and Lun Ou suspected that his cell was only one of them, and outside was a spacious and bright corridor, but this corridor could only receive the sun, not the light of the stars.
Here, Lunou counted by the light outside and his food, and it was already the fifth day—he had protested against having only one meal a day, each of which was just water and black bread; Then. The next day he ran out of food. The same food was delivered on the third day; But. And the beginning of the hard to swallow, this time he is gobbling up.
The feeling of hunger is better than sleepiness, a kind of despair that eats away at the heart and torments the will.
Lun Ou felt that he had become in a trance since the afternoon of the third day, and he basically didn't know anything except that he could tell the time. Especially the guy who delivered the food, his face was solemn, and he walked with a straight back, without the slightest drag of mud and water—he knew that this was a soldier, and he was a very good soldier; Because, the pressure from the other party's body made his breathing suppressed, as if facing a fierce beast at zero distance.
If, it is in normal times. Seeing such a person, Lun Ou must have hid as far away as he wanted. But at this moment, he was looking forward to the arrival of the other party every day, and communicated with the other party - he hadn't seen anyone for five days, Lun Ou simply felt that he was about to be driven crazy, if you add the time he was unconscious, maybe it was already the sixth or even the seventh day, after all, when he woke up, the feeling of empty stomach would not lie.
"Let me go, you despicable traffickers, I demand fair treatment...... I am the eldest son of the Huaqin family, I have the right of inheritance, and I can get the right of redemption of the nobles...... What we're learning today is how to quietly enter a room guarded by guards......"
The loud shouts were mixed with muttering of unknown meaning—even Lun Ou himself did not know this, and when he entered this cage, he had become in a trance when he entered this cage; And all his actions at the moment are under surveillance.
On the other side of the palm-sized window, about thirty yards away, in the underground training hall, a small, big man, Ava was sitting, a crystal ball that emitted a faint light, clearly showing everything in the cell, and providing the only light for one of the prisoners in the cell.
"Using the change of light, blurring the other party's sense of time, and using my medicine to completely confuse the other party's stomach, and being locked in that small, cramped cell, I may not be able to survive ......a few days," Ava shrugged his shoulders as he said this, and then his eyes turned to his companion who had come up with the idea, and the eyes of the big man were also on the small man.
"Don't look at me, that's not the way I came up with it!"
Under the gaze of two friends and companions, the little man waved his hand again and again, and he said honestly: "It was during a small talk that the woman who had no nightmare told me!" I just thought I'd give it a try, but I didn't expect it to work......"
"Are you sure this wasn't used on you by Nine Nights?"
The little man's words were interrupted by Ava, the latter looked at the little man with a solemn expression, the former had a stiff face, and after taking a deep breath, he replied very seriously: "No! ”
For such a situation, Ava and the big man looked at each other - although Zhilu Dao's friend and companion had an extraordinary relationship with that crazy woman, he definitely did not expect that the two still had such a 'friendship', even if it was a person like the big man, Zhilu Dao did not need to dwell on this issue anymore at this time.
"Old man Fletcher has sent a message, and the sentinels of House Nosd have discovered those fellows; Compared to the number of pioneers you have destroyed, the number is more than ten times more! The big man thought of the solemn face of the messenger of the Norsd family before, and couldn't help but say in a deep voice.
"Yes, is there any news from Ye?"
The little man asked, turning his head sideways.
"Yes!"
The big man nodded, and said with a slightly solemn tone: "Last night in Tika Fort, Ye once sent a message to the headquarters, and then left; Previously, Ye had killed the mixed army of less than 2,000 Holy See Punishment Knights who had invaded Mechanical Town and Carter Town; And before that, Ye Zaide had also fought several battles with the Holy See, and there were about three hundred people in those imitation Holy Knights, as well as three teams of the Holy Song Legion, and many other existences, all of which were killed by Ye! ”
"Although there are some people who have to go inside, I think Ye Gan is really beautiful!"
A smile appeared on the big man's honest face, and then the little man and Ava reached out at the same time, and the three of them high-fived, repeating again: "Well done!" ”
Although Ye Qi has been concealing the most secret life-and-death relationship with the Holy See, this does not prevent speculation between the three of them, especially after living together for a long time, they have already cultivated a sense of tacit understanding between the four of them. And this tacit understanding is enough for the three of them to do something about Ye Qi's behavior. More 'correct guess'.
And with such a correct guess. The attitude of the three little men towards the Holy See is naturally obvious - especially when the Holy See's wanted notice for Ye Qi is placed in front of the three of them, the thoughts in their hearts are undoubtedly biased towards the most straightforward and direct solution.
"How's it going at Four Seasons Castle?"
The little man asked again, and this time his expression was even more solemn - the female cavalry captain had gone there to support, and they had received the news since they had rushed back to Landenburg in the middle of the night last year; In this regard, including the big men who were the first to get the news. All three of them were nervous with a hint that could not be concealed.
"Elsie made a very beautiful flank raid early this morning, and directly copied the headquarters of those vanguard officers of the coalition forces in the Autumn Forest District; Then, with the cooperation of the Four Seasons Fort garrison, they directly covered up the vanguard of the entire Autumn Forest District coalition army! The big man said the news from headquarters.
"Another piece of good news!" After a smile on his face relaxed, the little man began to look down and think: "After the vanguard troops have fled and the camp has been destroyed; At the very least, you can buy a critical time of the day; If it is properly arranged, this time can be a little longer......"
"As long as we can quickly deal with the guys in the Hailin District, we can free up our hands to support Four Seasons Castle!"
The little man said this, and then his eyes fell on the cell where shouts were still coming from in the distance. He looked at Ava and the big man, and finally set his eyes on the former: "Ava." Please; Ask that kid everything he knows! ”
"Leave it to me!"
Ava stood up, and the sable cara, who had been squatting on the backrest, immediately jumped on Ava's shoulder, and walked to the cell with one person and one pet - the interrogation technique is undoubtedly the best among the three, but the best effect of interrogation is Ava's first, even if it is Ye Qi, it is not comparable to it in some cases; After all, there are many uses for potions.
"I need to see that old man Fletcher, and I'll leave the house to you!"
The little man also stood up, waved at his friend, picked up the apostle's trench coat beside him, and walked towards the bar on the ground—as he walked, the gold on the corners of the trench coat shimmered in the faint light of the underground hall.
……
In the Hailin District, where the former mixed army had been wiped out, a group of strangely shaped 'men' were scouting carefully - they were so strange because they were tall or short, tall enough to be big enough to shawl, short enough to be hunched over, almost tempting to put their faces on their shoes.
Of course, perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that they were for them - neither the lush hair of the tall nor the green skin of the short man was enough to make them human.
"Quack, what a good fight!"
One of the shorter men said this - with a tone full of schadenfreude.
"Humph!"
One of the tall men snorted coldly, then crouched down, pinched a handful of dirt and shook it on the tip of its nose, and then it turned to the group behind it, and with a shake of its hand, the soil immediately flew into the air with a smell that only they could distinguish.
"Remember such smells, they will be our highest priority on the battlefield!"
Such words were exchanged for affirmation, and a loud roar that soared into the sky, like a pack of wolves howling the moon, which made people feel shaken and their legs weakened.
"Chief, a secret order from your lordship!"
When the whistling was over, a tall but agile figure made its way through the forest to its face, and handed the leader the secret order recorded on a piece of fur to the leader, who looked down at its contents and frowned in confusion; However, in the end, obedience prevailed, and as soon as it raised its hand, it issued an order directly: "The whole clan listens to the order, begins to rest, and waits for the follow-up large army!" ”
The werewolves were stunned, but when they saw the fur that was held high above their heads, they all showed deference and obedience; Even the green-skinned fellows were no exception, and without any more taunts and noise, they respectfully began to set up camp; Only the werewolf leader who withdrew his palm and looked at the order on the fur felt a wave of doubt—the alpha wolf of Bulchi (a dense forest at the intersection of the Winterwood and the Frostwoods). It is undoubtedly brave and combative. But it is also unruly.
For the sake of the big picture. It has to show obedience, but it does not mean that it can be convinced of such an unobtrusive command.
Bulchi's alpha wolf looked at the fur in his hand and felt the strength in it, not only clenched his fist fiercely—I, Ossar, will eventually have such strength and glory one day; That day will definitely not be long away.
Bulchi's alpha wolf once again took the order in front of him, and it glanced at it every time. It was as if they felt a kind of humiliation, as if they had been trampled on in the face and kept rubbing their cheeks with the soles of their shoes; Not only was his face hot and painful, but his heart also seemed to be kneaded, as if he was about to suffocate.
Well?
The tip of its nose twitched, and an unfamiliar smell crept into its sense of smell—perhaps not as good as its people in the Finlay Plateau, but every werewolf had a sense of smell several times stronger than that of the best hounds; Especially when the strength breaks through to a certain level, it is no longer an ordinary sense of smell.
Although the smell was masked by the herbs, it could not hide it from the Alpha Wolf of Bulchi, who tucked the fur in his hand into the leather armor. Then, the whole person disappeared silently.
……
Here, here!
It's close. It's closer!
The Alpha Wolves of Bulchi quickly shuttled through the dense forest, but did not make any noise, no less than the druids who claimed to be the 'Children of Nature', but compared to the peace-loving 'Children of Nature', the Alpha Wolves of Bulchi were undoubtedly a hunter, a bloodthirsty hunter.
It uses its nose to sniff out its prey.
In a dense canopy, the Alpha Wolf of Bulchi stopped, its predatory gaze peering through the dense foliage, at the prey that passed below—five men in all, cloaks with hoods, each armed with a weapon; However, it can still be seen that the middle one is undoubtedly noble, because the other four are distributed in the four corners, protecting the existence in the middle at all times.
What about catching the most important prey first?
Or do you want to enjoy the hunt slowly?
Such a thought flashed through the heart of the alpha wolf of Bulchi, and then it had an idea of its own; Like an eagle swooping, it leapt onto one of the four guards, and what was originally a human palm instantly turned into a sharp claw.
Burst!
The claws slashed his throat, and blood spurted down the carotid artery; However, Brchi's alpha wolf was stunned—its paws did not get the warmth it deserved, but on the contrary, it carried a hint of chill; Unlike the blood of any species it has hunted before, they have the appearance of a human, but they are definitely not human.
Standing on the branches of a tall tree, it looked down at the four 'men' below who had flashed their weapons against it, raised its paws again, put them in front of its eyes, looked at it, sniffed it again, and the Alpha Wolf of Bulchi turned his gaze at the people below, and asked, "What are you?" ”
In the face of such a question, the other party's answer was the attack of the scimitar - the three guards in the eyes of the alpha wolf of Bulchi disappeared in an instant, and when they appeared in the next moment, they had already appeared beside it, and the scimitar flashed with cold light, surrounding it; In this regard, Bulchi's alpha wolf glanced at the three attackers with disdain, its claws waved again and again, blocking the attack with a speed beyond ordinary people's imagination, and counterattacking again and again, making the three attackers stumble; And by this time, it had already crossed the distance between the branches and the main character of the other party.
Clang!
The claws were blocked, and a mace with corrugated spikes blocked its claw's attack path, the force on the mace was not very large, and Britch's alpha wolf was definitely not his opponent, but the opponent's mace contained an extra force that not only nullified its attack, but also shattered its claws.
With the advantage of its race, Bolchi's alpha wolf rolled over and dodged the opponent's mace's follow-up attack, and then it ignored the three attackers that surrounded it again, and only raised its claws, looking deeply at the gap that had been broken out at the tip of the claw.
"The familiar and unfamiliar strength makes me uneasy, but I also desire!"
In these words, the alpha wolf of Brchi finally gave up its 'human' form, and its body began to grow wildly, from about seven and a half feet to about twelve feet, before it stopped—originally, it was only vigorous hair, but it was still a human head, and now it has been completely replaced by a wolf head, and the skin on its body is completely covered with gray-black fur.
A tail heavier than a baseball bat was hanging on the ground, and the claws were sharper and shinier, like a sharp sword.
Werewolves, the best form of battle—may not be as powerful as a full moon night, but they are daunting enough.
A swaying body, Bulchi's alpha wolf had already appeared in front of the figure with a mace in his hand, and the three attackers who had surrounded it did not even react at all.
Roar!
In a roar, the claws swung down again.
The figure with the mace in his hand was as if he was stupid and didn't move—only the three attackers standing in the distance could see clearly, and a spider-like shadow appeared behind the werewolf.
