Chapter 221: House of the Damned
Farm, restaurant in the main house.
Foul-smelling, rotten, filthy, dim.
The round wooden table was filled with food made from a dark recipe, and the food was no more than three ripe, and various liquids still remained on the surface of the food.
In the center of the large turkey, there is even some kind of living creature wriggling.
Victoriano's family of four is eating here.
The 'form' of the four people is different.
【Farmer】Murphy. Victoriano wears a plaid shirt and butcher's apron, and a shabby linen hood, which is tucked through the chin opening at the lower end of the hood.
It seems that he is cursed by something so that he must wear a hood at all times.
【Mother】Belin. Victoriano is nearly three meters tall, with a varying number of fingers of varying length on the palms and soles of his feet.
The fingers move super fast, and eat quickly by pinching and stringing fingers.
The mother's head is full of gray hair, and her skin is mostly 'wrinkled', which is severely aging...... It gives the impression of a centenarian, as if it is caused by some kind of aging curse.
But such aging does not affect her agile movements at all.
【Eldest daughter】Tracy. Victoria is the most normal-looking person in the family, with the face of a college girl in her early twenties under her blonde hair, as recorded in the mission description, youthful and beautiful...... Except for a few freckles.
Wearing denim overalls, she eats quietly with a knife and fork in hand, and does not refuse any form of food, and has an unusually good appetite.
【Little Daughter】Roshi. Victoriano looked like she was just an adult, but her skin was cloth, as if she had been cursed by some kind of curse.
Roshi's mouth is also stitched with many lines for some reason.
When the mouth is opened, these lines are also stretched out, and the inside is full of staggered teeth, and even the tongue has a tooth structure that makes it easy to chew and eat.
House of the Damned.
That's right, the family has always lived here, and the arrival of the Dark Ages has given them even more terrifying curse powers...... Even if the High Lord sent personnel to try to evict their family, no matter how many people were sent into the barn, they would not be able to get out.
During the meal, the eldest daughter, Tracy, blushed a little, suddenly stopped eating and said:
"I saw an intruder in the barn just now...... It doesn't seem to be a big lord.,There's a boy with glasses who has a good temperament.,It's my favorite type.。 ”
The mother, who was sitting on the other side with her head on the ceiling because she was too tall, said, "Tracy, do you need Mommy to get him back?" ”
"No, I'm an adult, I'll do these things myself...... I want to get to know my little brother first. ”
The younger sister Luo Xi on the side also became curious: "Sister, sister! What kind of boy is it? Is it stylish? ”
"It's the type that my sister likes...... Sister, don't have a bad idea! ”
After that, her sister Tracy actually poked the fork in her hand into her sister's forehead.
Tick tick tick ...... Fluid flows out of the wound.
My sister wasn't angry at all, and even looked like a hippie smile, "Got it!" Isn't there a group of people coming? Maybe there is a type that I like...... Sister, you're so stingy. ”
Tracey pulls out her fork, rolls up the black pasta from her plate, and continues eating.
"Sister, can you tell me...... What kind of people are there? ”
As my sister started the conversation, the family began to chat and laugh.
Only the father was indifferent and ate quietly.
…………
Between the lush cornfields.
The team is slowly making their way towards the farm area.
Han Dong sees through the little devil's eye to avoid the scarecrow as much as possible.
However, less than ten meters after walking, the spider silk tied to everyone's wrists was slightly pulled...... It was Mia, who was in charge of the palace, who seemed to have something to tell everyone.
"There's a problem with this corn as well...... A small amount of corn is cursed, and if you touch it, you will get it, so let me lead the way. ”
"Oh......"
Wen Li's position at the head of the queue was driven down before she could sit hot, and she could only follow behind Han Dong...... As for the work of the palace, it was all left to the magician Temple.
When Mia and Han Dong passed by, she softly spit out two words: "Scumbag!" ”
Han Dong didn't care about such a title, and asked, "Mia...... If we were to stagger the cursed plant, we'd collide with the scarecrow, right? Do you think it's better to avoid plants or scarecrows? ”
"Avoid plants......" Mia replied decisively.
"I'll leave it to you."
"Hmph...... Scumbag! I don't want to talk to you too much...... I'm only responsible for getting you out of the cornfield. As for things on the farm, I'm not going to try to help. ”
Follow Mia's lead.
After avoiding several cursed plants, he just collides with a scarecrow.
It is different from the traditional dummy made from straw.
The scarecrows here are made with great care.
First, a four-metre-high wooden cross was used as a fixed bracket and inserted into the ground steadily.
The 'scarecrow' is then fixed to the cross bracket.
Han Dong stared at the scarecrow and whispered, "Remember the missing peasant servant mentioned in the mission?" It looks like they've all been arrested here to 'work'. ”
That's right.
Planted in the cornfield are 'real scarecrows'.
Based on the peasant servants, their bodies are fused with straw...... So much so that there is straw overflow between the five orifices (normal eyes), and there are also a large number of straw suture marks on the skin.
Once the scarecrow catches an intruder in the cornfield, it will shoot straw vines out of its body, binding and draining the target for its own nutrients.
Even though the organs in the bodies of these peasant servants are almost replaced by straw, they are still 'alive'.
That's where the curse comes in.
A scarecrow's curse that imprisons their souls forever in this body, guarding the cornfields.
Meanwhile.
A large amount of straw immediately ejaculated from the scarecrow's body, quickly wrapping around the nearest Mia and Han Dong.
Just when the two were just about to fight.
Blacksmith's Grip
Syllable!
Wen Li, who was closely following behind Han Dong, stretched out her hand and shook it!
There is actually a gravitational compression field formed in the palm of its hand.
The straw vines that had been forced to scatter were all compressed together, and Wen Li grabbed them tightly.
Pull hard!
The scarecrow's body, even if it was reinforced with a curse, could not resist this brute force at all.
Such a drag.
There is a feeling that the internal organs of the whole body are being dragged out...... However, the target was only a scarecrow, and when the epidermis was torn open, a large amount of straw stained with bodily fluids was pulled out.
There are no bells and whistles, relying on brute force alone to obliterate the target......
