Chapter 285: The Cat Who Can Count
The sudden rise of a full moon was far away from the two strange figures, but the shattered moonlight clearly fell into the eyes of the two of them, and also illuminated their vague appearance.
A black robe covered most of the figure, the withered face only had bone skin and no flesh and blood, a pair of eyes were red like blood, the dry palms were like sharp claws, and the curved nails had a jet-black color.
Looks like a person but not a person, exuding a strange and infiltrating atmosphere.
The two of them were very alert, and when they saw the moonlight shattering, they immediately dispersed and staggered, and their figures were quickly blurred, as if they were one with the night.
But an imperceptible faint light and shadow had already crossed the night sky, landing on one of the figures, and after he jumped up, he was like a kite with a broken string, gliding for a few meters and then falling to the ground with a "bang", and with a "boom" it burned into a huge ball of fire.
A trace of light power scurried in the fire, purifying the large amount of black gas that burst out of the human figure one by one, and the power of light was exposed.
The figure wrapped in flames let out a beastly howl, and he struggled and rolled to extinguish the flames with snow, but the flames were unusually domineering, and it only took a few seconds for him to die without breath.
"Meow!"
The little tiger cat still has a natural fear of flames, and its four paws are staggered, and a large cloud of snow mist flutters on the snow, and it escapes away from the direction of Charles in an instant.
After another black shadow landed, he didn't even look at the howling companion, and fled into the mountains and forests alone.
He sensed the domineering power contained in the flames, faintly the nemesis they feared the most, and the instinct to survive had frightened him, and he had no confidence to persist in resisting at all.
Now the only thing he has confidence in is the ability to escape, the power of darkness gives them ghostly figures, tanuki speed, in this deserted mountain wilderness, even the exorcist monks of the regional church can't catch up.
But Charles is not an exorcist monk, but a rebellious wilderness hunter with a spiritual vision, if he can chase and lose it on this snow that is easy to leave traces, then simply summon the queen to wipe his neck and delete the number and repractice.
Charles and the little tiger cat hung unhurriedly on the believer in the dark night, the footprints on the snow, the scratches on the bushes, and the remnants of the black breath in the air all clearly pointed him in the direction.
Two hours later, an eerie castle appeared in Charles' field of vision.
"Boots, go in and scout, count how many of them there are, don't alarm them!"
Charles did not act rashly, since the other party dared to do things in his own territory, then he had to be steady, accurate, and ruthless, and let the little tiger cat first go to investigate the enemy's situation, and then decide whether to ride a thousand or shake people to fight in groups.
However, after the little tiger cat got Charles's consciousness instruction, he shook a cat's head like a rattle, and his two big round eyes were full of "safety first" looks.
It doesn't have the talent of spiritual vision, but the ability to perceive danger is not small at all, and the gloomy castle in front of it exudes an evil aura, and the little guy who is deeply educated by the safety of Charles directly admits it.
"Let you investigate, and not let you bite, I'm right behind you, and I can kill you right away!"
Charles angrily flicked a finger at his cat's head, sending a moment of encouragement.
Tiger Cat then replied to Charles with a video screen. In the picture is a large bowl of freshly baked spiritual power elixir!
Charles often dispenses potions in the rental house these days, and every time the little guy carries a big bowl in his mouth and sells cuteness next to him, nine times out of ten he will get some benefits.
Then he ran around the house like a drunkard who was crazy, and he didn't go to sleep until he finished tossing the medicinal properties of the spiritual power potion, and when he woke up, his strength increased.
"What's the matter? The stupid long-term workers of the landlord's family have learned to ask for wages?" Seeing that the bear children would talk about the conditions, Chardon was angry and laughed.
But for the sake of the little guy's stupidity, Charles, who became rich overnight, took out a bottle of his favorite outbreak potion and handed it over, anyway, the little guy can increase some strength after drinking it, and the stronger his pet, the more the hunter can benefit.
But the next move of the boots directly made Charles angry.
The little one lifted his right forepaw, and with great difficulty parted the five short fingers, curled up three, leaving two crooked and erect.
"Do you want two bottles? Do you know how to read numbers now? Why did I teach you how to read numbers so that you could play this?"
Charles was really angry, in order to make full use of the little tiger cat's reconnaissance ability, Charles taught it to count like teaching his own son, so that he could detect the number of enemies more clearly, because the pictures transmitted by the spiritual connection are one-sided, and Charles sometimes can't determine how many people there are on the other side.
But the little guy couldn't count the eighteen fingers of the four paws before and after learning for a long time, but now he is learning to use it without a teacher!
Charles was angry, the little guy was scared immediately, and he didn't want the potion, so he broke free of Charles's hands and jumped onto the snow and began to track it, but seeing that it was aggrieved and depressed, Charles felt a little unbearable.
"Boots!"
The little tiger cat turned his head, and saw the small potion bottle thrown by Charles, and immediately jumped into the air and pinched it accurately with his two paws, ran to the side and quickly dug a hole with his hind legs, carefully buried the potion bottle, and then ran back to Charles and rubbed on his legs to show that he was wrong.
"Remember! don't tell me the conditions!" said Charles, grimacingly, conveying a harsh expression of consciousness to it.
The little tiger cat nodded in agreement, and the long tail flicked flatteringly, and then rushed to the castle on the hill with joy, and the four little legs kicked and kicked very happily.
The eerie castle building is not large, only a large courtyard, a main house with a spire tower, which should be a mountain castle for the nobles' vacation.
After running for two hours straight, the Night Believer climbed over the wall, ran into the ground floor hall of the main house with a puff of smoke, and then shouted to his companions.
"Jabbar, what are you shouting, the gods have already gone to bed, and we are going to suffer again if you disturb your good dreams, do you want us to be punished with you?"
Abdul-Jabbar, who was already running and was about to lose his strength, removed his hood and showed a frightened face, "I met the strong man of the church in the mid-mountain village, Balel is dead, I must inform the Divine Envoy." ”
Jabbar overtook his companion and was about to walk towards the tower, but was stopped by his companion again.
"Abdul-Jabbar, Elevia and Barana are asking the Divine Envoy for teachings, are you sure you want to go up now?"
"I ......."
Abdul-Jabbar hesitated for a moment, and had the intention of retreating, but the domineering flame crossed his mind, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed his companion away and walked up.
"No need to come up, how many priests have you encountered, are they ordinary church cavalry or elite night patrols?"
A man in a nightgown descended the tower's stairs, his legs still sticky with blood.
"Your Excellency, Baller and I were ordered by you to go to the village to pick up the four new slaves, but we were suddenly ambushed on the way, Balel was shot on the spot, and I fled back desperately......"
"Abdul-Jabbar, you're telling me you didn't see who the other person is, are you?"
The corners of the mouth of the "Lord Divine Messenger" suddenly appeared with a penetrating smile, and several Night Believers present lowered their heads in fright.
"My Divine Messenger, when Balel was shot by an arrow, he caught fire and burned to death in an instant, and the fire could not be extinguished, and I felt ....... in the flames Something to fear, much like the power of light you told us about. ”
"Fear something, tell me everything that comes your way!"
The "Divine Messenger" immediately became serious.
"I met a big cat with a very aura on the road, and Baller wanted to catch it as a pet, but it was ......."
"Wait a minute!"
"Lord Divine Messenger" suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a big cat on the courtyard wall outside the door and asked, "Are you talking about that cat?"
A big cat crouched on the wall, its shining eyes staring at the Night Worshippers in the hall, its little head ...... It's like counting.
