Chapter 58: Sacrifice
After chatting for a while, Gu Yuan returned to the room again, the smell of blood outside the house was too strong, and it was really not suitable to stay longer. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Back in the house, Snow Thorn hadn't woken up yet, and there was still a thick sea of fog outside the window, as if it was about to swallow the whole village.
Gu Yuanzuo stretched on the edge of the bed, took out dry food and fresh water from the package of his luggage and began to nibble on it, the taste was still not so good.
After a long time, the snow thorn on the bed woke up reflexively. She rubbed her eyes a few times with sleepy eyes. Blurryly opened his eyes and saw Gu Yuan sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Young Master...... Good morning. She rubbed her eyes and half-sat up, Gu Yuan handed her the food in her hand.
After the two of them finished eating, Alley in the next room also woke up, and he stared at the sword shield and the door for a long time.
Yesterday, Master Master instructed him not to open the door no matter what sound he heard, but it was already dawn at this time, so it shouldn't matter if he opened the door now...... I was a little anxious to urinate, and I couldn't hold it back.
"Lord Skeleton...... Can I get out now?" he said, staring at the skeleton whimsically.
The sword shield naturally couldn't answer more, couldn't understand his question, and could only pass on the strange behavior of this "target" that Gu Yuan asked it to protect in the spirit link.
"I've finished eating snow thorn, I'll go next door and see Islay first. ”
"Okay, young master. ”
Gu Yuan also finished breakfast at this time, he stood up and finished tidying up his clothes and walked towards the door, although Lay had seen the scene of the necromancer slaughtering the city before, he would not be frightened stupid by the corpse on the stairs.
But it's better to go and see it for yourself, speaking of which, the two zero-order horse-like monsters of Ai Lai are often worth their own lives for a coachman.
Gu Yuan came to the door of Ai Lai's house, dismissed the sword and shield, and knocked on the door.
Alley watched with some panic as the sword and shield suddenly disappeared in front of him, and there was a sudden knock on the door.
Alley looked out the door in some panic, and in an instant the horror stories of countless bards appeared in his mind.
"Alay, are you awake?"
Hearing some familiar voices from the mage outside the door, Ai Lai immediately went to open the door, and a smell of blood came from the surface.
Ai Lai looked at Gu Yuan who greeted him with a slight smile in front of him, the thick smell of blood like a slaughterhouse in the corridor behind him, and the cold and damp air that seemed to be due to the weather.
Thinking of the noise he heard outside in the house last night, Islay was suddenly glad that he hadn't gone out at that time.
"Master Mage, what's going on?" the thick smell of blood brought back memories of the horrific massacre in Black Furnace City.
Gu Yuan thought about it and briefly told him what happened yesterday, of course, he also concealed a lot of things that were not suitable for him to know, as well as informed him of the death of the two horses. And promised to give him appropriate compensation after leaving the village.
Ai Lai's expression was a little panicked, especially when he heard Gu Yuan say that there were two other priests who had left and never returned. But the look is calm anyway.
For an ordinary person, such a psychological quality is rare.
Waiting was always boring, and as time passed, the sea of fog outside the window still did not dissipate, and Gu Yuan returned to his room with Snow Thorn after leaving Ai Lai's room.
Time passed minute by minute, and the appointed time came, and Hill and Soraka still did not return.
Snowthorn packed her luggage and went to the corridor with Gu Yuan, Vera also led Sila and the two to gather, and Ai Lai also went out of the room as he told Gu Yuan before.
"Master Gu Yuan, let's go, shall we?" Vera also saw that Alley was dressed like a civilian, and she didn't even bother to say hello. Of course, this is not to be blamed among the aristocracy.
Gu Yuan nodded and walked in front, while Snow Thorn followed closely behind him, followed by Verasila and Ailay.
When he walked to the stairs and saw the scene full of bloody severed limbs, Gu Yuan felt the snow thorns holding his hand beside him tremble, but he also restrained his fear and followed behind him.
Gu Yuan glanced at the snow thorn beside him, and the snow thorn smiled at him a little reluctantly, although his face was a little pale.
A few people left the hotel, and although the fog outside was not enough to reach out and lose sight, it was not much better, and the whole village was covered, and there was no distant sight of the houses.
Gu Yuan summoned all the three ghoul sword and shield sinking and ordered the ghoul to go last, the sword and shield were in front of him, to Gu Yuan's surprise, the scene in the fog from the spiritual link of the sword and shield was even clearer than what he saw from the spiritual link of the sinking spirit.
With the devouring of souls by the sword and shield, has your own ability broken through the limit of the skeleton talent......
As for ghouls, although the picture cannot be transmitted in the spirit link, the ghoul has a sense of smell like a hunt, which can make life sense in the darkness inside.
"What you saw in the talent ability before, it's like a lot of professionals are hanging on the shelf, where is the position?" Gu Yuan looked at Sister Olduin behind him and asked
"You...... What do you mean?" asked Vera's chestnut eyes, staring at Gu Yuan
"If, as you said before, leaving the village would lead to coming out of the other side, there is no point in us going outside. Gu Yuan replied, "As far as I know, this kind of sacrificial ceremony, whether it is ancestor worship or demon worship, the place of sacrifice generally does not change. Now that the whole village has mysteriously disappeared, I think there might be some clue there. ”
"I understand Master Gu Yuan, but this is also ...... It's too dangerous. Vera said hesitantly
"I don't think we have much other choice. Gu Yuan replied
"Just east of the inn, not far away is a small square...... There it is......"
Gu Yuan nodded when he heard this, and a few people left the inn and walked in the direction that Vera said, and the inn slowly disappeared in the sea of fog behind them with the footsteps of several people, as if it had never existed.
The warmth brought by the magic tide rain has long been gone, but a cool and damp chill.
Some dilapidated houses appeared in the fog with the footsteps of a few people, and the sword and shield walked in front of everyone silently, and the purple soul fire in the deeply sunken eye sockets was as eye-catching as an indicator light in the fog.
I don't know how long I walked, about dozens of minutes or so, and a few fires faintly appeared in the fog in front of me. There was a faint smell of burnt barbecue in front of me.
"Master Gu Yuan...... It's the front. Vera held the staff in her hand tightly and said to Gu Yuan.
From the perspective of the sword and shield, Gu Yuan could indeed faintly see a person tied to a wooden shelf in a small square in the distance.
Soraka, or Hill?
