Chapter 242: Return (2)
The cold wind was blowing in the mist, and it was already summer, but it was so cool and damp around, it was all because of the heavy rain yesterday.
The white wolf walked out of the cave and looked at the sky, it had rained all night, but the clouds still hadn't dispersed, and it seemed that the road would not be too easy to walk today.
After leaving Eagle City, the white wolf and his party did not look back, all the way to the south, the speed of the white wolf is fast, coupled with the drive of the wind element spell, can easily do thousands of miles a day, just like this for a day, until the white wolf is a little out of breath, then stop, looking back, Eagle City has completely disappeared from sight.
Richard regretted a little, if he had known that the white wolf could run so fast, he should have taken his luggage and sold the horse, because his life was threatened, he was in such a hurry that he didn't have time to get anything, only a bag of money, a small bag of dry food and water, and important things such as medicine and clothing were left in the hostel.
But he just thinks about it, the white wolf can help him is his luck, it is good to be able to escape alive, and it is completely an afterthought and insatiable greed to worry about money now.
The first day passed like this, several people chose to camp in the wild, Richard and Dory relied on the only rations and water to survive for a day, and ran out of food at night, the white wolf naturally could not let these two "important people" starve to death, he casually hunted a wild boar, which became the dinner of these two humans.
Looking at the bubbling boar on the grill, the white wolf was quite emotional, he couldn't even beat the wild boar when he was a fledgling, those two fangs were a huge threat to him, he had to walk around when he saw the wild boar, to this day, hunting a wild boar is tantamount to crushing a reptile to death, and those fangs can't break through his skin at all.
The two of them were also very sensible, and each broke a pig's leg, and gave most of the rest to the white wolf, which was the fruit of his labor after all, and it would be too much for the two of them to say if they ate it all.
The white wolf did not give in, and it only took five bites to swallow a whole wild boar, even the bones were chewed and swallowed, and the eyes of the two people who watched were straight, they didn't expect the white wolf to eat so violently.
Dinner was so full, the white wolf was a little sleepy after a long time, and after walking so far, the killer would never be able to catch up, and finally a few people decided to be on duty tonight Richard was on duty, and the white wolf lay down next to the bushes and began to nap. As for Dori, after getting the permission of the white wolf, she rested with her head on the white wolf's belly.
Can make the white wolf willingly give up his belly as a pillow, this is a privilege that only girls have, after all, the white wolf is a "male" creature before and after the crossing, and he has no gay attributes, so he can only accept the female creature to make affectionate moves towards him, if Richard wants to pillow the white wolf, the white wolf can only persuade him to dispel this illusion as soon as possible, in fact, Richard does not have the courage.
However, judging from Dori's feelings, the white wolf's belly is obviously an excellent pillow, the hair is soft, the stomach is slightly undulating, and the comfortable body temperature is coming, which is simply a hypnotic artifact, she feels that the white wolf is a creature that can be trusted, and she doesn't need to worry about being attacked when she falls asleep, so it didn't take long for her to fall asleep.
The night was silent, the first day passed like this, the white wolf actually only slept for about four hours, while Dori slept very soundly, maybe because the journey was too tiring along the way, or because the paralyzing toxin was attacking, or because she had been living a life of fear of the end of the world, and suddenly had the opportunity to pillow such a comfortable pillow, so she slept for an extraordinarily long time, and after sleeping for twelve hours in a row, the sun rose in mid-air, and she got up softly.
Richard was on duty all night, but he didn't see any sleepiness in him, and he didn't even yawn, which is probably some kind of quality necessary for an adventurer, and in addition, he also took advantage of this night to prepare some dry firewood.
When Dori woke up and ate some of yesterday's leftovers, the group continued on their way, and for three days they lived like this, until on the fourth day, when things finally changed somewhat.
Tiangong seems to have given enough face to the white wolf and others, and the sky has been gloomy for three days in a row, but there has been no rain, and the rain can only be regarded as falling when everyone is almost about to enter the extreme southern realm.
The wind and rain are like the cry of the gods, heralding the end of life and the coming of death, ahead is the extreme south, human blood stained this vast land, raindrops fell on the ground, turned red, closer to look closer, only to find that this is not blood, this is the color of the soil, it itself is reddish-brown, but whether it is red by blood, it is unknown.
The rain poured down and the roads became muddy, which was very unfavorable for further progress, and there was not a village within a few miles of them, but luckily they found a cave to shelter from the rain.
In a place where there is no basic medical condition, cold and fever can be a matter of life and death, Richard and Dory obviously understand this truth, after entering the cave, they immediately took out the dry firewood prepared in advance and began to light a fire, at this time, the white wolf suddenly admired Richard's foresight, he is worthy of being an experienced adventurer, know how to prepare supplies in advance, if he didn't pick up firewood a few nights ago, now they are likely to spend this cold day in the posture of a soup chicken.
Richard obviously knows how to rub and make a fire, but the air is too humid, and he can't get up this fire for half a day, and finally the white wolf can't stand it anymore, so he directly sprays a fire with a fire element rune and ignites the pyre.
"You know what? It's the first time I've ever seen a creature capable of mastering so many elemental runes. After seeing the white wolf's performance, Richard was shocked.
For other people's exclamations, the white wolf just responded with a smile, he knew that his rune technology was very strong, maybe one of the best in the whole continent, but there was no need to show off this kind of strength, he didn't study runes to get praise from others.
Everyone gathered around the fire that had just been lit, and the rain outside had no intention of stopping, and it had been raining for an hour, but it was getting heavier and heavier, and the temperature was gradually getting lower, and if there was no fire, these two people were only afraid that they would be sick from the cold. As for the white wolf, his fur is enough to keep out the cold, and even if it gets wet, he can easily dry it with fire elemental magic.
It rained heavily for a day and a night, until the next day, when the rain finally stopped, and the white wolf came out of the cave and prepared to continue his journey.
"I always feel that something bad will happen next..."Looking at the dark clouds in the sky, the white wolf felt that his mood was quite depressed, if it was in the original world, he would probably say that this was the result of the pineal gland secreting melatonin, but this is a magical world, and the intuitive premonition is sometimes very accurate, especially for magical creatures like the white wolf.
"We had better be careful today, this month is the month of magic, and it will rain heavily at this time, but I am afraid that it is not a good omen. Richard reminded.
"I have the same hunch. Dolly echoed that the rest of the team felt the same way as the white wolf, and the white wolf nodded, indicating that he knew what he knew.
The so-called Magic Moon refers to the period from April to May, and according to historical records, all kinds of strange things often happen during this time, but no one can explain why.
Astrologers have discussed that this is when the evil star is born, and these weird things are actually malicious fetal movements, and when it comes to autumn, the malice will hatch out and turn into a large number of demonic beasts, chaos, and devilish fog, and attack the world of order.
In fact, the white wolf once calculated that the day he crossed over happened to be around April of the continental calendar, and there was nothing more strange for him than to suddenly cross over.
"Hold on, I'm going to speed up. The white wolf turned his head and reminded the two people sitting on him.
Richard and Dory got down at the same time, lying on top of the white wolf, and at the same time grabbed the wolf's hair, such a sitting position is the most difficult to fall.
After a long time, it rained lightly in the sky again, and the two people on the back of the white wolf hurriedly put on their cloaks to avoid catching a cold.
"Look, over there!" Richard reminded suddenly in a low voice, pointing in one direction.
The white wolf stopped, and with Dolly, looked in the direction Richard was pointing, a small village that peeked out in the mist.
"Will there be anyone there? We might be able to go buy some dry food. Dori was also embarrassed to eat the white wolf's food all the time, so she asked Richard.
"Maybe someone, we are at the junction of the Empire's Extreme Southern Province and the Southern Province, and this side may not have been poisoned by a cult. Richard replied.
"How about we go over and see?" Dolly asked the white wolf, looking down.
The white wolf didn't react at all, his eyes were closed, his neck was stretched, and he seemed to be feeling something, and before long, a breeze came, which was the wind of magic created by the white wolf.
"Over there, there was a massacre not long ago, and the smell of blood... Tsk, it seems that a lot of people have died, are you sure you want to go over?" asked the white wolf, narrowing his eyes
"Massacre?!"
"No, we have to leave quickly, what should we do if we encounter a cultist?" Richard immediately objected.
"I listen to Richard. Dolly immediately supported.
"If you don't go, I have to go, I don't believe in evil, what are these cultists, I'm very curious. Speaking of this, the white wolf couldn't help but lick his tongue, the heavy smell of blood stimulated his central nervous system, not only did not make him afraid, but made him extremely excited.
