A legend is a legend after all, and the ghost did not appear. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Moments later, Shadow returned to the group, carrying two pale men in both hands.
"Is that them?" Albert was a little incredulous, how could these two people with no vitality fluctuations run so fast?
"That's right, it's them. "I'm sure their feet are exactly the same as the footprints in front of them. ”
"I trust your judgment. Albert nodded, looking at the two people who had been knocked unconscious by the shadow, feeling a little strange. The other party was barefoot and very thinly dressed, how did they survive in the deep mountains in winter, and why did they come to the deep mountains? Even he, without the protection of the flames, would be frostbitten by the cold wind and ice and snow.
"There was something strange about these two people. The shadow spoke, and the black mist of his faceless facial features surged.
"What do you mean?" Albert looked at Ei, waiting for an answer.
"I don't know. Shadow shook her head, "I just think it's weird." He touched his chin humanly, as if thinking, "It seems that they are similar to me." ”
"Similar to you?" Albert was stunned, "What do you mean?" he looked at the shadow, and then at the two people in the shadow's hand. "I don't see it. Albert frowned, "What do you mean? You, me, them, what's the difference between us?"
"Absolutely. Ying replied seriously, "You are the same as everyone else, and they are the same as me." ”
"I see. After a moment of contemplation, Albert said lightly, "We are real people, and they are puppets like you?"
"That's right, they give me the impression that they are puppets. Shadow nodded, "You may not feel it, but I understand your ......" He paused, as if thinking about something, "Soul." Soon, Shadow found the term that had just been stored in the core of his memory, "Yes, they look like people, but like me, they have no soul. He said firmly.
"People without souls. Albert muttered, lost in thought.
"What are you two doing? Just then, Barrett walked over with Bawen and Duncan.
"I'm studying these two strange people. Albert said.
"Looks like a homeless man. Bawen nodded, stepped forward and opened the mouth of one of them, "Their mouths are clean and smellless, they haven't eaten in a long time." ”
"I'm not researching where they come from. Albert smiled and told Barrett and the others about his confusion and Shadow's conclusions.
"It's kind of weird. Barry nodded, stepping forward to examine the two of them. Suddenly, he took a step backwards, his face turning pale, "They're dead." Barrett said in surprise, but in order not to cause a commotion, he tried his best to control his voice, and only a few people around him could hear it. "These two people have no body temperature and no heartbeat. ”
"We seem to have encountered something ominous. Bawen frowned.
"Ask when they wake up. Albert looked at them, trying to keep himself calm.
This fact is so strange that it is unbelievable that they actually met two 'people' with no soul and no heartbeat.
They were like two corpses, yes, corpses, Albert thought to himself, if it weren't for Shadow's assertion that it was them who had just run away, he would have thought these two were dead.
He took two padded jackets and wrapped them around their bodies, although this was redundant.
Albert handed the two to Dodom and continued on his way.

I don't know how long it took, but it was getting brighter.
Albert and the others had already crossed two mountains, and the two eccentric homeless men had finally woken up.
"Where is this?" said a homeless man who looked like he was thirty-five years old, looking at the moving landscape. However, as soon as his words fell, he saw a hideous face. The face had only one large one-eyed man, grayish-yellow eyes and dark green pupils reminiscent of wild beasts. The homeless man swallowed, swallowed back what he was about to say, closed his eyes, and continued to pretend to be asleep.
Unfortunately, the tramp's trick didn't work, he felt light, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"Answer me a few questions. Albert crouched in front of the homeless man and smiled.
But the warm smile changed in the eyes of the homeless man, as if he saw the smile of death, "What do you want to know?" His voice trembled, and he looked around in horror, all of them were humanoid monsters.
"All the secrets about you. Albert's smile did not wane.
"I have no secrets. The homeless man shook his head, "They, no, who are you?"
"Don't be afraid, man, we're mercenaries. Albert helped the homeless man up, "Tell me, what's your name?"
"About... John. "What about you?" he asked, bowing his head, whispering, observing the other through the gap in his long greasy hair.
"Albert Violet. Albert smiled, trying to dispel the other party's vigilance, while also beware of possible dangers. Facing such a strange 'person' would be terrifying for everyone, even the brave dragon heir.
"Are you a nobleman?" asked John, fearfully.
"No, I have a surname, but I'm not a nobleman. Albert smiled and shook his head.
Only the nobility deserved to have a surname, with exceptions, of course. Albert's surname was given by the royal family of Buffia.
"You must be an amazing person. John's tone was sincere, and there was a complicated look in his eyes, as if he was choosing something.
"John, what are you thinking?"
Albert's words pulled back John's thoughts, "I want to answer your first question. ”
"That's exactly what I want to know. Albert smiled and nodded, "I think we can talk while eating." He raised his hand to signal the group to stop, and several mercenaries began to gather firewood and prepare breakfast.
"Even though I'm not hungry, I still want to taste the meat. John stared at the steak that Albert had taken out of the package.
"Of course you can, but the barbecue takes time. Albert raised his hand and waved a fireball, and the snow around him melted into snow, and then evaporated into white mist, which merged into the air. Then he sat down cross-legged and made a gesture of invitation to John.
"You're a magician!" exclaimed John.
"Sit down, John, and talk about you. Albert urged.
"No, I have to get a guarantee. After a moment of silence, John suddenly hesitated. "You have to swear to the sun god that you will help me after hearing my secrets. He believed that even the wicked would not dare to desecrate the oath of the sun god. Thinking of this, John's face suddenly sank, he is like this, will the sun god continue to favor him?
