Chapter 8: The Mystery of the Village
The master gave the order to evict the guests, and Linya and Suzanne were really embarrassed to lie here with a dead face. Packing up her things, Suzanne lifted the linen bag, and the two walked out of the wooden fence door under the watchful eye of the villagers outside. As she left Lico's house, Linya turned back and bowed deeply to the leader of the villagers. And that Aunt Lico.
This is her sincere gratitude. In any case, the Masters have done their best to cure you, give you food and water, and show you the way. As for refusing to stay overnight, that's their rule, and what do you have to say as an outsider?" Thank you, you are all good people, and may the gods protect you!" Hurry up and get out of here, and still have a little way to go, while the sun hasn't set yet. Never come back here. The middle-aged leader sighed.
Leaving the village, the sun was setting in the west, and it was almost evening. Suzanne saw that Linya had been frowning and seemed to have something on her mind, so she asked, "Sister Linya, what's wrong with you? You seem to be unhappy, did the villagers say anything?" Linya shook her head and translated what the villagers said to Susanna. "They didn't say anything, they just insisted that we leave. But for some reason, I always felt that this village was weird, as if there was some secret to it. But...... Obviously, they are all good people, why don't they take in outsiders passing by? Linya said suspiciously.
Suzanne thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Good people can also have secrets, what's so strange about this." Besides, people who look like good people are not necessarily good people. Since they look so weird, it would be safer for us to leave, wouldn't we? Actually...... I'm a little confused......"
"What, Sister Suzanne, what are you selling to me!"
"That's right, princess. I didn't notice it last night, but looking back on it today, it feels a little weird. The wolves we encountered last night did not look like sand wolves living in the desert, but wild wolves living in the plains and grasslands. How did the steppe wolves come to the middle of the desert? What's even more strange is that the desert is so barren and there is no food at all, how do so many wolves survive such a big pack? The food they need every day is not a small amount, where does their food come from? And last but not least, when they fled last night, they retreated north. Suzanne voiced her doubts.
"Ahh......h Sister Suzanne, do you mean that the wolves fled to this oasis and hid? But even this oasis is probably impossible to feed such a large group of wolves, wolves are predators, carnivores, how can there be so many animals in this oasis for them to feed?"
Suzanne nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes." Princess, you are right, and so do I. Surrounded by a vast desert, this oasis is probably the only habitat for the wolves. But the food here is definitely not enough. We weren't dazzled last night, so the question arises, where did the wolves come from, where are they going, how do they live? Maybe it has nothing to do with us. Maybe we should indeed get out of this place as soon as possible. Seeing Linya's look of looking down and thinking, Suzanne couldn't help but say, "Your Royal Highness, have you heard of the legends and stories about werewolves?"
Of course I've heard of it. Werewolf,Isn't it the kind of monster that can transform in the legend.,Usually humanoid.,But on the night of the full moon, it will become a humanoid giant wolf that can walk upright.,With a tail with sharp teeth and sharp claws.,Loss of reason.,Blood-devouring beast instinct kills people when they see them.,Extremely powerful.,Vampire's sworn enemy and the like.,There's a lot more.,But that's probably it.。
At Linya's insistence, the two of them found a place to hide after entering the forest area, preparing to wait for the night to fall. Could it be that this strange little princess would be afraid of wild wolves, but not of werewolves? In fact, Linya couldn't figure it out herself.
The soft sun had set, and it was a long time before the blood-colored moon with its terrifying black eyes finally rose lazily. Regarding this magic moon, Suzanne has never dared to talk to Linya about it. Maybe it would be better to let the little princess say it herself?
After a while, in the cold moonlight, several figures seemed to come out of the village. Although the moonlight was not very bright, Linya's eyes could see it even in the dark, as long as she wanted to. There were five people, who seemed to have serious expressions, no one spoke, and their expressions were hurried, and they quickly passed through the forest near the two of them. The two also hurriedly and quietly followed.
The group parted in the wasteland outside the forest, and one of them stopped, a young man, who suddenly fell to his knees with his hands over his head, as if in pain.
"Ah...... Ah......h As time passed, the ** sound became stronger and stronger, and gray hair gradually grew on the man's body, his ears became longer and erected, and two long fangs were revealed in his open mouth, and a big fluffy tail gradually grew out of the back.
Don't doubt anything. Linya and Suzanne's ominous premonitions were confirmed. The man turned into a wolf. Eventually, the ** sound was gone, replaced by some kind of muffled roar. Eventually, the man turned into a wolf in the moonlight and began to hiss at the moon in the sky.
Suzanne took a deep breath and slowly drew the long sword at her waist. Linya turned her head to look at her and reached out to stop her. "Sister Susanna, what are you going to do?"
"To kill this monster, of course. Otherwise, it will harm others. "Suzanne is rightfully authentic. But unexpectedly, Linya thought and thought and shook her head. "Sister Susanna, we can't do that?"
"Why?" asked Suzanne curiously.
"Because...... I don't think they want that. They were all kind villagers, weren't they? They gave us water and food, they showed us the way, they drove us away and didn't let us stay overnight, but the real reason was that they were afraid that they would hurt us, didn't they? They were all good-natured people!" Linya sighed.
"I know, Linya. But it was them during the day. Now they won't hesitate to tear apart anyone they come across, just like last night. I think killing them now is the greatest help and relief for them. ”
"No, Sister Suzanne. Life is the most precious thing, and if it can be saved, why do we have to kill them to save them? We have their help, and I have promised to help them to the best of my ability. I think we should probably think of other ways to help them first, don't you think?" Linya looked up at her with a look of sincere pleading. Suzanne nodded helplessly and put her sword back into its sheath. Little princess, you are so young and kind. You still don't know enough about the dangers of this world.
"Woo-woo-" The wolf hissed one after another, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them. Suddenly there was a scream from the direction of the village, followed by shouts, dogs barking, and fires. "Something's wrong, Sister Susanna, let's go take a look!"
I can't care about anything at this time. Linya ran to the clearing, spread her wings and flew out of the forest. When she flew into the village, she saw chaos, several houses on fire, many wolves running and neighing, and many others screaming and running. In the wolves, a little boy fell to the ground, a wild wolf was biting the boy's leg and dragging him backwards, other wild wolves were also snatching flesh from his body, the little boy let out a heart-rending scream, the scene was really bloody. On the other side, the crowd with bamboo poles and sticks tried to disperse the wolves, but the wolves turned back and roared from time to time to make people afraid to go too far.
By the way, fire, animal instinct should be very afraid of fire. Linya hurriedly summoned a large fireball and threw it at the wolf that was biting the little boy. The wolf, excited by the smell of blood and fresh meat, did not notice the attack from the sky, and the fireball hit the wolf and exploded on its body, the flames immediately burning its hair.
The wolves scattered in fright, and Linya summoned another fireball in her left hand and a sword of light in her right hand, waving her wings and slowly landing beside the little boy. In the firelight, Linya's snow-white wings, gorgeous long skirt and stunning face were reflected, and the beautiful girl who landed like an angel was reflected, and the crowd on the other side was stunned. Yes, angels! Only legendary angels are so beautiful and flawless.
The wolves didn't dare to come any closer, so they could only hide in a dark corner and roar, not knowing whether they were afraid of the flames or the light of the Excalibur. After a confrontation for a while, it was not until the boy's mother ran over and took the boy into her arms, hugged each other and cried, that people finally came to their senses.
She ...... Who is she?"
"Is this an angel?"
"She seems to have been here during the day!"
"How can she have wings?"
"She seems to be the Wanderer Magician who came during the day!"
While the people were whispering, Suzanne finally ran in and kicked a wild wolf standing in the way of the roadside to the side. At this moment, an old man's anxious voice sounded in the crowd: "No!
In fact, Suzanne did not use lethal force. But now it is necessary to teach these transformed wolves who have lost their human nature and reason a little lesson. They'd better be honest. "Don't worry, old man, we won't hurt them. Linya was protected by Suzanne and walked to the front of the crowd, and although she had withdrawn behind her, her white wings still shocked people and made their hearts beat uncontrollably.
The wings were so beautiful, white and spotless. This can only be the supreme work of God, and there is no other possibility.
That girl was so beautiful and so beautiful that it was indescribable. Is she really a mortal in this earthly world?
