Chapter 42: Dead Breath
Chapter 42 Dead Air
The cold air in the mist stimulated Tarrant's memory, and the scene foretold by the prophet actually happened, he was far away from the Lotus District, far away from Siant, but what happened here, Katrina's doom He opened his mouth, no, it couldn't affect morale, Tarrant calmed himself down, and he walked nervously towards Katrina. (Please remember our website)
The mage didn't seem to remember the prophet's warning, she pondered, "Could it be that these strange things happened here after the mage of the National Geographic Association left?"
"No," replied Connor, "they had limited contact with the fishermen during their stay on the island, and there were no conflicts. ”
"Katrina," Tarrant stood behind her, his eyes constantly scanning her surroundings, "let's get out of here." ”
"Let's take a look at this", Kira Veton stood beside a dug grave in the distance, "there's a coffin buried here", the three of them gathered towards her, the wooden coffin was very simple, the difference was that its lid was broken from the front, and rotting sawdust was sprinkled around the tomb, "Any ideas?" she crouched on the ground, her fingers running over the dust in the coffin and sniffing.
From the radius of the wood chips, you can see what Kira Viton was saying, it is impossible that the wooden coffin was smashed from the inside out
"Is there a custom of being buried alive on the island?" said Kiraviton, looking around coldly.
Connasius leaned over to look at the tombstone, and the time was after the melting snow, he only shook his head slightly, an incomprehensible expression.
Tarrant jumped off the wooden coffin and stepped on the plank, it was still very hard, ordinary people could not have this strength, especially when they were confined in a small space, there was no force point, and the breach in the lid should be caused by a strong impact, "I guess the monster buried here is the monster in the tree, the fishermen subdued it and buried it alive in the cemetery, but they underestimated the monster's strength, it broke through the cage and took advantage of the night to take revenge." ”
"No", Kiraviton pointed to the side of the coffin, "look here", a few scratches, the fingerprints of the humanoid, "it is a man who has been locked up, he has awakened from his slumber, maybe he was not asleep in the first place, he was mad and cried for help, the villagers ignored him, they dug a big pit and threw him in, but the desire to survive brought the tenacious poor creature to life, he must have wanted to tear the foolish people apart." ”
Catrina wiped the weeds off the tombstone, "The second day of the first month of summer, Aimee", she exclaimed in surprise, "It's a woman"
Having overturned two conjectures and sending the matter into a realm that could not be explained by common sense, Tarrant climbed out of the coffin, "Only the villagers can explain the strangeness here, let's get out of here first", and without waiting for the others to reply, he took Katrina and walked forward.
There was a sudden "whoosh" sound behind them, and when everyone turned their heads, they saw only a slightly shaking tree tip.
"They've got it," Kirawiton kneading his fingers and pulling out the mace, "It's going to be a problem to find Lovell." ”
Tarrant clung to Katrina, the prophet's words beating his mind, could something unfortunate happen here?
Connor raised his longbow high, he hung up the signal arrow, and with a "boom" the rocket flew upward, the faint red was swallowed away by the night, and the only tombstone was in the open field of vision.
A figure flashed from the front, a clear friction between the grass, and Tarrant changed direction blankly with his sword in both hands, he couldn't find an opponent.
Katrina chanted her spell softly, and her night vision was transmitted to her teammates.
The sound of hurried footsteps ran in front of Conasius, and the soldier's arrows followed the source from left to right, but never had a chance to fire.
Faster than aiming, which can only be done by beasts, the four of them stared closely back to back, and the sound of sprinting appeared in the direction of Tarrant and Kira Veton at the same time, two
"They're playing tricks on us," the priest whispered, "I'll cast a spell, pay attention," and the blessing slowly rose.
The other party didn't mean to interfere at all, and Tarrant turned to Katrina, "If there is a war, hide from my back." ”
"Hmm", the mage struggled to keep his composure.
After a few minutes of the four of them maintaining a vigilant posture, the cemetery returned to calm, the mist was faintly dispersed, blocking the filthy things from view, Tarrant lowered his sword slightly, and the running just now seemed to be just passing by, and it seemed like ...... The wolf howl just now only stopped abruptly after two sounds, and with an indescribable intuition, he turned his head to Connorsius, "Take us to the castle, don't stop for a minute, there are too many strange things"
The soldier continued to make a round and lowered his bow, "follow me," and he hurried forward.
Tarantra followed the soldiers with Katrina, and the team came to a halt after only two minutes, a man, a woman, sitting under a tree by the edge of the cemetery, with their backs to the group.
"Albert didn't lie" Tarrant had to believe his eyes, there was a girl in the cemetery, she was sitting in front of her, but ...... On such an occasion, on a night infested with wolves and monsters, a girl sat comfortably like this, as if enjoying the air in the light mist, which made people's backs chill.
"Tarrant," Katrina grabbed his arm to stop him from moving forward, "don't go." ”
The girl should have heard the voice behind her, but she didn't move.
Tarrant moved his limbs, "You are on alert", he took two steps forward carefully, unable to see the girl's hair color, but she had long hair, not the one Albert described, her body shape was no different from that of ordinary people, there was no threat, "cough" Tarrant snorted violently.
The girl did not react.
Don't...... Tarrant suddenly felt that something unfortunate had happened to that man, and he took two more steps, "Are you okay?"
The girl's shoulders suddenly moved, and she turned her head slowly, and a pale face, snow-white made the black eyebrows and red lips stand out from her, as if the thing called "life" had left her.
Seeing that face, Tarrant couldn't help but have the thought of retreating, and he forcibly suppressed the discomfort, "Are you from a nearby fishing village?"
The girl stood up and looked at the team, "I haven't seen anyone in a long time. ”
The voice was the most terrible Tarrant had ever heard, so terrible that he ignored the content of the sentence itself, he couldn't describe it, calm, soft, lifeless, as if it were an illusion bursting out of his head, and he tried his best to get rid of these strange thoughts, the other party was just a girl, a poor girl with anemic blood, there was nothing to doubt, "The villagers refused to let you into the cabin?" Pale face, the villagers may have mistaken her for a monster.
The girl's thin body did not rise and fall, and the tip of her nose did not exhale hot air, and she was unusually weak.
"Do you know a girl named Gloria?" asked Tarrant.
The girl smiled, her blood-red lips slightly open, "Gloria, right at your feet." ”
Tarrant's heart was pounding, and he bowed his head in fright, just a meadow.
"Ahh
