Chapter 183: Treatment
The monster caught in the thorn net struggled on the ground, and when it tossed on the ground, the stone road of the royal capital cracked because of it. It's hard to imagine how a creature of this size could exert such terrifying power. The wolfwalker walked from a distance, and in the short moment just now, this monster flew out of a distance of more than thirty steps, such an instantaneous explosive power, combined with its terrifying muscle strength and imperceptible body, it was enough to become the deadliest killer in the moonlight.
"Can you control it?" the mage, who was lifted up by the werewolf, asked the witch.
Kolandi nodded, and the energy of the monster's struggle passed through the buffer of the thorns to her hand, judging from this power, this monster could not break free for the time being. However, Kolanty once used the same spell to trap an adult grizzly bear, and if her memory is correct, the grizzly bear may not struggle as hard as the monster in front of her.
"Drag it into the house. I'm going to see what this thing is. Cheese wiped the blood from his face and said. Finally caught this prey, and the mage couldn't wait to slice it and study it.
The witch smiled when she saw the mage's angry appearance, dragged the thorny vine in her hand, and walked into the house with the monster in the net. When Jack saw that Colante had entered the house, he tried to go in with cheese, but the Wolfwalker was stopped by the mage. Cheese pressed lightly with the hand on Jack's shoulder, motioning for the other to stay out of the way.
"Are you satisfied with the result?" the mage said into the air. Jack looked suspiciously in the direction where Cheese was speaking, and he was surprised to see a white owl standing on the roof not far away. The owl has fluff on its head that resembles a goat's horn.
The white owl tilted its head, not seeming to understand what Cheese was saying. But the mage knew that what he was saying had been heard by the owl's owner.
"Woooooooooo Seeing this, Jack bent down and picked up a stone, with the strength of the Wolfwalker's wrist, which was enough to cause as much damage as an arrow at close range, if he wanted to.
"There's no need. Cheese stopped Jack again, and he shook his head, a wry smile on his lips. There's no point in killing that owl here. It is just one of several eyes and ears of its owner. Besides, the mage didn't want to off the guy who had domesticated the white goat. After all, if Elsa and the others had no accidents, they should be in each other's hands now.
By the time the werewolf and mage entered the house, Kolandi had already brought the monster in the net to her mother. She was about to go outside the door to see why Cheese hadn't come in yet.
"What are you doing?" asked the witch, slightly reproachful, who had expected Cheese to follow her, only to find that there was no one behind her.
"Go and say hi. The mage replied. However, no further elaboration was given on who to greet him.
"Well, you'd better come and see what we've caught. It's really, quirky. To Cheese Morrow's ambiguous answer, Colente did not pursue it, and her energy was now focused on other things. As she spoke, the witch led the two of them open a door. As soon as the door was opened, the cold air and pungent smell of drugs made Jack sneeze.
"I didn't expect you to even have a biology lab. "The equipment in this room is no stranger, it is a typical biological laboratory, or rather, an alchemy workshop. The low temperature in the room can effectively slow down the decay of the active substance, and the pungent smell of medicine, look at the various biological specimens placed on the shelves in the room to understand the origin of this smell.
"My mother built this lab. Originally, I didn't think it was necessary, because we rarely needed tests. Aemia's voice came, and she had already changed into a white lab coat and stood in front of the laboratory table in the room, "Compared to this kind of living magic, the witch's ability is more suitable for the alchemy of inanimate matter. ”
"Understandable. Cheese said. Even among spellcasters, there are only a few who will seriously study the internal structure of living things. And most of them are people who use biological limbs to make flesh golems and other creations. While these people know more about the inner workings of some creatures than other spellcasters, they honestly don't know anything other than bones and muscles.
"Wait a minute, you're not going to start researching like that, are you? Seeing that the mage looked eager to try, Colendy stopped Cheese from walking directly to the test table.
"A small injury, it's not too late to deal with it after the experiment is over. Cheese said with a frown to the witch standing between him and the test table. If it weren't for the fact that he was too weak at this time, the mage would have pushed Kelendi away. However, because of his body, the act of trying to get away with Colanty made Cheese stumble a little.
"Was this guy like this before?" the blonde witch asked, turning to the werewolf.
"Hmm...... I'm afraid he's been more exaggerated before. Remembering the almost fanatical research enthusiasm that Cheese had shown in Salon Collar and Turbidity Town, Jack shrugged his shoulders and said.
Looking at the mage who was going to study even if he was faltering, Kolandi looked towards her mother for help, only to find that Emia was also distracted by the things on the test bench at this time, and did not notice the situation here.
"Hell, that's fine. The blonde witch grumbled, holding Cheese's left hand with her left hand.
"It's going to hurt a little bit, bear with it. ”
Thorn vines poured out of the ring again, only this time it was Cheese's ring. Instead of attacking anything, the rattans spread from their fingers to the mage's arms like climbing plants. The thorns were like small green snakes, quickly taking over the entire arm of the cheese and continuing to spread until it reached the location of the mage's heart.
Then, smaller roots began to grow on the thorns, and these roots were pierced deep into the cheese's body by the spikes at the tops.
"Ahh Although he was already numb to the pain, he suddenly felt a stinging pain coming from half of his body as if he was being burned, and Cheese subconsciously cried out.
Although Jack couldn't see the vines on Cheese's body due to the obscuration of his clothes, Wolfwalker tried to take Cheese away from the witch when he heard the mage's cry of pain. But when he took a step forward, he noticed that a faint white mist began to rise from Cheese's body, and the mage's voice changed from crying out of pain to softening.
"I've healed your wounds. However, the lost stamina cannot be regained immediately, and you will have a long sleep after you finish the dissection. As the vines on Cheese's body retracted into the ring, Kolandi said as she pushed the mage's body away. The witch left the room with that, and if you looked closely, you could see that Corandy's face was much paler than before.
"Looks like you're getting along well with my daughter?" said Amya, standing beside the bench, to Cheese, who walked up to her.
"Perhaps. The mage responded, and the scalpel in the witch's hand began to dissect the captured monster. Since the other party has sent this thing to him, he must have wanted to transmit some information through it. And the easiest way to find this information, for Cheese, is to thoroughly understand how this monster that can become invisible in the moonlight was created.
As for why the mage was sure that this monster was not a naturally occurring life, it was because under the bright light of the laboratory, Cheese could clearly see the dense stitching marks on the monster's body, especially in the splicing of limbs. This makes the whole monster look like a rag doll made of different raw materials, but this is such a rag doll, and it almost killed a gray-robed mage just now.
