Chapter VIII Rescue

The sound of the stone door scraping against the ground disappeared as the stone door was fixed, and the hall was silent, and on the high platform at the end, Lucius was tied to a wooden beam with his head down, and he looked like he had passed out, and there was no one else.

Barred resisted the urge to call out his friend's name and slowly walked inside, deliberately slowing his pace to maintain the unusual silence. After a few steps into the church, the stone door behind him suddenly closed on its own, and Barred did not show any panic, no matter what happened in this strange village, he would not be surprised. The warrior drew his sword, clenched it in his hand, and continued to walk forward.

As Barred was halfway there, an old man's voice came from ahead. "Stand there, young man, this is not the place for you. ”

Barred followed the direction of the sound, and saw that in the middle of the high platform, the image of an old man in a mage's robe gradually appeared, slowly descending from the sky. "Who are you, and what do you have to do with this strange village?"

The old man looked at the young man in front of him. "Looks like you're just an ordinary mercenary, tell me, why are you here?"

"We were just passing by, my companion broke into this place out of curiosity and was arrested by the villagers, and I came to save him. Barred looked at Lucius to the side.

"I see. The old man also glanced at Lucius, who was still unconscious. "Get out of here, since you don't know anything, I don't have to kill more. ”

"What do you mean!?" Barred was puzzled by the old man's words. "As I said, I'm here to save my companion, and the person next to you is my companion, and I'm going to take him out of here with me. ”

The old man's stern gaze stared at Bared. "He couldn't go, he heard my conversation with the villagers and got my name, so he had to join the villagers. ”

"What!?are you saying he has to become a werewolf too?"

The old man raised his eyebrows. "Looks like you've seen things you shouldn't have seen, but you still don't know my name, so it's not too bad, and I'll choose to let you go, as long as you agree to abandon your companions and leave here alone. ”

Barred lowered his body and prepared for battle. "I won't give up on my companion, I must rescue him!"

"That's good. The old man laughed, and suddenly the whole hall darkened, and the church became like night, and the light of the candles overshadowed the light that came in from outside.

Barred looked out the window, there was no more light coming in, and then something worse happened, and three werewolves who were snorting came out of the shadows in the corner, drooling and glaring at Barred with malice. "Werewolf!" Barred faced the werewolf, he had never fought against such a monster, he had no idea what the other party was doing, so he could only find a way to defend it first.

The werewolf who hit the head let out a howl and lunged forward, faster than the warrior expected, Barred hurriedly retreated to the right rear, but the benches in the church were too densely arranged, and he slammed directly into the stool because of the dodging too hard, and he flipped to the ground in one fell swoop, and the werewolf whizzed over his head. However, it was because of his sudden fall that the second werewolf who came from another direction also pounced, and also flew over the bench. The third werewolf climbed onto the bench and raised its sharp claws to swing at Bared, who had fallen to the ground. Barred took advantage of the narrow gap between the chairs on both sides to raise his sword to protect himself, and in the small space, the werewolf couldn't hurt him for a while. During the stalemate, Barred bent his left foot, pulled out the dagger from the outside, and stabbed upwards sharply, the werewolf didn't expect this human to have the consciousness to fight back, and his right leg was stabbed by the dagger, and he jumped back with a wail.

Barred got up from the ground, and saw that the two werewolves flying overhead were eyeing him, but they couldn't run for a while because the rows of benches blocked their path. Barred took advantage of the terrain and kept his eyes on the werewolf in front of him. Suddenly, one of the werewolves stepped on the bench in two steps and pounced on the warrior again, Barred flashed to the right, then raised his sword in his right hand and stabbed the werewolf before he could land on the chair, the long sword pierced into the werewolf's back and pierced through his chest. At the same time as the howl that almost burst his eardrums sounded, Barred was keenly aware of other sounds behind him, and before he could look back, he dodged to the left again, and another werewolf pounced on his right side, and a sharp pain came from his right shoulder.

The werewolf saw that although he succeeded, the prey was still not mortally wounded, and still glared fiercely at the warrior. Barred pressed his right arm with his left hand, the injury just now was not light, his right hand was already trembling a little, blood was flowing down his ribs, he understood that with the loss of blood, he would soon lose control of the sword.

"That's enough, stand down. The old man's voice sounded behind him, and the two werewolves bared their teeth at Barred for a while, and lifted the werewolves, who didn't know whether they were dead or alive, and walked towards the corner, disappearing into the shadows.

Barred exhaled and lowered his sword-raising hand, thinking that he could finally take a break for a while, but the old man didn't give him this chance. "It took me a lot of mana to transfer them and the entire village here, but I can't waste it in your hands, so I'll come myself. ”

"What are you going to do!" Barred panicked when he realized the danger was coming. "I'm human, you can't turn me into a werewolf!" said him, and the warrior ran forward, raising his sword with all his might, and rushing towards the old man.

The corners of the old man's mouth curled slightly. "Don't do it!" Barred was jerked back and slammed to the ground as if he had hit an invisible wall, and the blow made him almost out of breath, unable to get up on his stomach on the ground.

"Well, tonight those werewolves will feed you a potion of idiosyncrasies, and tomorrow night you will become one of them, and your companion, you will have the privilege of seeing how he becomes a werewolf tonight. The old man smiled triumphantly, and the figure slowly disappeared.

The two werewolves stepped out of the shadows again, and tied Barred to another wooden beam on the high platform, where he and Lucius were symmetrical, one left and one right. "Damn, let me go, you ugly monsters!" Barred shouted, but to no avail. One of the werewolves didn't forget to punch him in the stomach before leaving, knocking the warrior to the point of throwing up his lunch.

The church was bright again, the light from the window was shining in again, and at this time, the church looked like no different from the others, a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere. But Barred became a prisoner, alongside Lucius, the nightmare that was coming. Thinking of this, Barrede's anger rose from his stomach, and he scolded Lucius on the side, "It's all you idiot, what new route do you want to take, what thrill you seek, now it's okay, we're going to become werewolves, you will never see Mulena again, even if you see her, you will definitely abandon you, and I, just met such a charming chick, but now I ......" scolded this, Barred remembered that until now, Adeline has not appeared. That chick must have tricked me in, and then ran away on her own, so that I could run into her again, and she must be good-looking!

Barred sighed, knowing that he might never get the chance to meet Adeline again, and the wonderful feeling of hugging the girl came back to his mind. This is my punishment for being too rude to her, I am really unwilling, I still have a lot of things to do, I can't give up, there is still time!Barred looked around, trying to find anything he could use to save himself, at least they didn't leave the werewolf guard. Bared's sword and dagger were taken away by the werewolves, and the other long dagger at his waist was confiscated, but they didn't know that there was another dagger on the outside of the warrior's right foot, which was his last hope now.
