"Bang", the claws of the leopard monster slapped on the shield made of metal again, and the tip of the claw and the shield collided, splashing a string of bright sparks, which appeared particularly clear in the night. The monster was shocked by the shield, rolled in a ball on the snow several times in a row, and Catherine distanced, and the hind legs suddenly kicked the snow surface, and in the snow flying, the monster clinged to the ground and ran to Catherine's oblique bottom, bypassing the shield, and suddenly opened its big mouth and pounced from the bottom up, biting Catherine's lower abdomen fiercely.

However, Catherine chuckled, and her body spun around the snow as if she were dancing, not only quickly avoiding the bite of the monster, but also giving up the empty seat behind her for the first time. But unfortunately, the vacant seat is not an empty seat, I don't know when it started, Pannis was already standing behind her, and she spun just right to expose Pannis to the open mouth of the monster. With the polite smile of the clerk's welcome when he saw a customer, Pannis's face stabbed straight forward accurately, just burrowing into the open mouth of the demonic beast, and the one-handed sword more than a meter long was not up to the handle, almost piercing the leopard demonic beast.

"Smack", after stabbing a sword, the hands of the two pulled each other in the air, Catherine spun back again, stopped beside Pannis again, raised her hands and high-fived each other, and let the monster with a one-handed sword in her stomach rush straight past the two of them, fell heavily to the ground, scratched her limbs on the snow, and the blood spurting out of her mouth instantly stained a large area of snow.

Turning around, the only Legendary-level snow wolf had already bitten the throat of the remaining leopard-like demonic beast, and was looking at the two strange creatures in front of him with curious eyes, the strange fellow had said that these two were also friends, but in any case, it was impossible to see where these two upright walking creatures looked like friends.

Seeing that the battle was over, Lina, who had been replaced by Diana, crawled over like a wolf, and arched each other's heads with the Snow Wolf Leader of the Legendary Rank, and began to communicate with each other with a low roar. Gathered in groups of snow wolves around their dead kindred, they raised their heads to the sky and howled neatly, letting out a series of terrible roars, after the howl. The wolves each dragged the corpses of members of their own group and silently dispersed around the snowfield.

"The dead companions, all the members of the wolf pack, will be eaten as food after mourning. Pannis whispered to Catherine, "That's why they dragged away their own dead bodies." You see, the corpses that died of poisoning were not dragged away, they were smart enough to know that they couldn't be eaten. ”

"Actually eating the same race?" Catherine looked at the wolves who were dragging the corpse away in surprise: "I have the impression that most normal social monsters don't eat the same race. Wolves, in particular, will not touch their own kind. ”

"This is the snowfield, my knight lady. Pannis shook his head and said, "You can't judge the situation here by the experience of other places, in the snowfield, especially in the winter, every bit of food is very precious and must not be wasted." A corpse of the same clan may be able to make the entire small clan survive the most difficult period of winter, so every carnivorous monster on the snow field will treat the dead kind as food. It's hard to avoid. ”

Catherine was silent for a moment, then nodded: "That's right, for Warcraft, the continuation of the clan is the most important thing, and everything else will be put aside first, well, it's understandable." ”

"I talked to them for a while. Lina patted the snow wolf leader on the head and walked back in the knee-deep snow, "They just said that the dead human had appeared on the snow some time ago. He slaughtered several snow wolf groups and killed a lot of snow wolves, so he was remembered by several large wolf packs on the snow field, but later he left the snow field. The wolves couldn't find him, and there was no other way, but he didn't expect that this time he came back on his own initiative, and he also brought two strange magical beasts. Oh, they're much simpler than that, and I'm adding to what they mean. There is basically nothing wrong with it. ”

"I see. Catherine slowly walked over to the only human corpse and bent down to examine the corpse covered in scratches and bite marks: "Let's see, what kind of person would roam the snowy fields with a monster that resembles a goblin modified creature." ”

"Let's move faster. Pannis forcibly put the corpse of a leopard monster on his shoulder, and under Lina's negotiation before, the corpse of the enemy was not all taken away, leaving the corpse of the human and one of the monsters to three people to study, at this time Pannis carried the corpse of the monster and said: "If you don't go back, I'm afraid they will be worried." ”

"Soon fine. Catherine checked it slightly, and suddenly her expression changed, and she raised her voice and said, "You two come and see, is the clothes he is wearing inside very familiar? ”

"Whose man?" Pannis looked up, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he slid to Catherine's side with the corpse in a few steps, frowning at the corpse's torn coat. Under the cover of the coat, there was a purple robe, and the black that had been seen from a distance before was just a visual error in the night. Pannis squinted his eyes and looked up and down at the purple robes on the corpse, and smacked his tongue: "I didn't expect to meet them in the town, but I can actually meet them in the wild." It's funny, they belong to the same church, and it's not good for them to be in the town together? Hmm, I seem to understand something. ”

"He's the necromancer who left early. Catherine also reacted quickly, examined the wound on the corpse, held the corpse and said: "Look at the blood of the wound, when you die, you should still be a living person, not a ghoul among the servants of the gods." He had left Frozen Town three months earlier, and had gone north to make contact with the Divine Servants, perhaps with some other order, and had returned to the snowfield with the two beasts. But it's strange, why don't the servants assign ghouls to them as a cooperation? Although these demonic beasts are powerful, they are not as good as the ghouls. ”

"I'm afraid there aren't as many ghouls in the Servants of God as you think. Pannis said: "Even if they have been working hard to create ghouls for a hundred years, there are very few people who are willing to give their souls to them and get a chance to be resurrected, and even fewer of them will do this at the legendary level, how can there be so many ghouls assigned to them." ”

"A hundred years?" Catherine asked, puzzled, "Won't it be sooner or later?"

"The numbers are just a casual statement. Pannis laughed dryly and changed the subject: "The key question now is not this, it's okay to say whether the ghouls or the monsters or something, the real question is, where did these modified monsters come from." ”

"Could it be that they also discovered a debris area of a goblin research center. Catherine said uncertainly: "And then find an unknown way to control these demonic beasts for their own use?"

"These monsters definitely didn't come out of the goblin research center. Lina said with great certainty, "Maybe it's some other way that the servants of the gods found to transform these magical beasts." ”

"It's not going to be a goblin. Pannis also nodded: "When we were under the Angus Village, we were besieged by those demonic beasts, but the strength of those demonic beasts was far worse than these two, and the most important thing is that after those demonic beasts fought at high intensity for a period of time, they suddenly died by themselves, and after death, they turned into a disgusting pool of blood. I asked Eva a few days ago, and she said that the information shows that the transformation technology of the goblins is actually not perfect, and if the modified animals go through strenuous exercise and the body's own energy consumption is too large, they will not be able to control something, and that kind of thing will disintegrate, and eventually it will become like that. But from the situation of these modified demonic beasts seen today, it is obvious that the transformation technology has been very perfect, these demonic beasts not only have increased in strength, but also do not automatically die, I don't know if they have other modified demonic beasts in their hands, such as demigod-level demonic beasts and other creatures, if they can really transform demigod-level demonic beasts and control them, then the problem is very serious, when dozens of transformed demigod-level demonic beasts appear outside the death jungle, the threat will be ...... Wait, Forest of Death, I see. ”

"What do you think?" Catherine asked, "Something to do with the Forest of Death?"

"The biggest problem for the servants of the gods is that they are secretive, and they can't find their location at all. Pannis said: "Now more than half of the forces in Yala are desperately looking for them, and the entire continent is about to be turned over, and even the overseas islands are asking the Sea Clan to help find them, but there is no clue at all." I took a look at the corpse just now, and the demonic beasts they transformed were based on the original demonic beast rank, enhancing the strength of the demonic beast itself, and it could not help the demonic beast break through the original rank. If they are really researching the transformation of the Demon Beast, then the ultimate goal will definitely point to the transformation of the demigod-level Warcraft, if you want to transform the demigod-level Warcraft, you must choose a place where you can often find the demigod-level Warcraft, except for the deep sea, there is only one place in the world that can meet this condition. ”

"The Forest of Death?" said Catherine thoughtfully, "theoretically it is indeed the most likely place, but where can anyone really live for a long time?"

"Theoretically, no. Pannis shook his head and said, "But no one has explored all of them in the Death Forest, there are too many unknown places, maybe they will hide somewhere." Forget it, now is not the time to discuss this, first take the corpse back to Eva and ask, and then check with Vivien, maybe there are any other clues. ”

"Yes. Catherine nodded, "I hope it won't surprise them too much to bring back two corpses all of a sudden." (To be continued.) )
