There are roads carved out between Verdas and Rivendell, and there are signs leading to various places at intervals along the way, so there is no problem of getting lost. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a morning of driving, Watson accidentally noticed that Viola began to fidget a little, obviously not riding a horse often and not having a high physique like him, and the bumps on the horse's back for several hours made her feel a little uncomfortable, but she was still holding on.

"Stop, let's have lunch, rest for a while and then continue on the road, it's 11 o'clock, and according to the route on the map we should be able to get there before nightfall. ”

Watson didn't bother to poke it either, using his lunch time to give her a chance to rest.

Finding a grassy area with rich green shade by the roadside, the two took out the prepared pastries and beef jerky from the horse's back, and Watson took out three flasks with ice drinks from his waist and handed one to Viola, causing the latter to let out a pleasant moan, and opened another one for the dumpling, and fed it a few sips.

"Have you ever felt a fluctuation in elemental energy when you were exercising your skills? even faintly, the feeling is like a part of your body being immersed in water, and you suddenly feel it mentally...... Special sensation, warm, soft, numb...... Is there one?"

Most of the professionals who can try to communicate the natural energy will have this experience in the process of their own exercise, and different feelings represent their affinity for what energy, warm is fire, soft is water, and crisp numb is thunder, which determines the direction of development of professionals in this regard.

Watson should have had this sense, but before that, he had obtained the skill of dark energy control, so his affinity for dark energy far exceeded that of other elemental energy, so in the end, he did not have the idea of practicing other elemental energy, but concentrated on controlling his own dark energy.

“......”

Viola looked at Watson blankly, it seemed that she had no memory of these feelings, and this was normal, and no one would care about the flashes of sensations in their minds until they were reminded of them.

For this situation, professionals naturally have their own methods, since there is no way to rely on themselves to discover in a short period of time, it is not impossible to find someone else to help, just need to find a professional who can control the elemental energy for testing.

"Then I'm going to let all kinds of energy flow through your hands, and you concentrate on sensing them, and tell me how your palms feel. ”

Letting Viola spread her hands out flat, Watson first tried to use the dark energy he was most familiar with, of course, he would not control too much of the amount, but only controlled within the range that people with a high affinity for dark energy could sense.

There was no response, and then Watson used his mental power to collect the most common elemental energy in the air, fire, water, and earth, and tried Viola one by one, but there was no response.

It wasn't until Watson was about to give up letting Viola simply practice momentum that an exclamation suddenly came out of her mouth, and at this time, the element controlled by Watson was the thunder element.

"What does it feel?"

"Hemp...... Very numb......"

"Congratulations! Your affinity element is a rare thunder element, this elemental energy is a very good match for the melee class, your attack can paralyze your enemies after attaching the thunder element, and you can also try to build a spell array to see if you can use some simple lightning spells, which will be a great increase in your combat skills. ”

"So how do I control them? I still can't sense them myself......"

With Watson's help, Viola sensed the thunder element, but if she wanted to control this elemental energy, she had to concentrate her mental power, and it was basically impossible to sense it anytime and anywhere with her current state.

"This is the way of meditation, you learn the above way and try to use your spiritual power to communicate with the thunder element in nature, as long as your own mental power is similar to that of a normal person, then you will definitely be able to feel it...... You empty your mind, I use my mental power to help you condense some thunder elements around you to speed up your induction, everything is difficult at the beginning, the first time you succeed, as long as you remember this feeling, it will be a lot easier later. ”

After reading the meditation method in the book, Viola sat under the tree to adjust her state, holding her hands and knees to meet the sun, raising her face slightly with anticipation, and the sunlight between the green shades shone through the pores between the leaves, reflecting her temperament gently and playfully.

Looking at Viola's face, Watson didn't know why there was a slight throbbing in his heart, he smiled silently, and used his mental power to mobilize the thunder element to approach her.

"Hmm...... I could feel it, numb...... I can feel it!I feel some purple elemental light spots in my mind!!"

At this time, Viola was already completely in ecstasy, and for the first time she was told that she could also control those magical elemental energies, she was so excited that she threw Watson directly on the grass and kissed him fiercely.

"Ahem...... Hello, am I bothering you......"

At this time, an abrupt voice suddenly came from behind the two, pushing the excited red-faced Viola away from him, and Watson turned his head to see that a man holding a fight was standing in place and looking at the two with an embarrassed face.

"You misunderstood, I was just experimenting with something for her, and she was a little excited after she succeeded, we weren't doing anything weird. ”

Watson hurriedly waved his hand to explain, and Viola also realized that his behavior just now was a little excessive, and his face turned even redder.

"I want to ask...... Are you going to Rivendell? If I'm not mistaken, there's only one town you're heading to. ”

The man hesitated to ask about the destination of the two, and his face was a little bad.

"Indeed, we are Demon Hunters of Verdas, and we have been tasked by the mayor of Rivendell to investigate the events that have taken place in the town, and you ...... I guess it's from Rivendell, and if you can, I don't think you'd better go back recently, that town doesn't seem to be peaceful. ”

"You're demon hunters......? It's great that I have a reason to go back to Rivendell this time, and I want to find out what is going on in town so that my wife's soul can rest in peace. ”

"You...... The soul of the wife?"

Meow!

The dumpling on the side suddenly put down the flask, the drink spilled on the ground, and it quickly jumped onto the cargo of the wooden cart behind the horse stop led by the man.

"What are you transporting? My cat can detect some dark aura, and its movements just now indicate that there is this evil aura on the things your wagon carrying. ”

"That's ...... That's my wife's coffin!"

The man's face was a little gloomy, and he led the two to the back of the carriage, Watson picked up the dumplings, lifted a large piece of cloth covering them, and below it was a black coffin carved with a white cross.

The three of them sat under the tree and had an exchange, and Watson roughly understood what was going on and why the coffin where the man's wife was located was overflowing with darkness.

The man's name is Jaime, and he is the son of the mayor of Rivendell and the mayor who came to the Demon Hunting Guild to issue a mission, and his wife is named Lisa, and the two have just gotten married, but Lisa dies suddenly, and the way of death is ...... Jaime insisted on returning to Rivendell in order to figure out the matter.

The cause of the incident also goes back to two months ago, the town of Rivendell has an extremely famous puppet show ventriloquist named Mary, who makes lifelike puppets and is quite famous in several nearby towns.

However, during an unexpected performance accident, the townsfolk discover that the material from which the figure was made was actually real human flesh and blood! In order to punish her, the enraged townsfolk cut off her tongue and buried her and all the dolls she had made all her life in a cemetery outside the town, leaving her in eternal peace.

Since then, Rivendell has been haunted by mysterious deaths, and the pale dolls have disappeared from Mary's grave, always unexpectedly appearing in all corners of the town in the time that follows. Wherever the doll appeared, someone would be killed, and the victim, like her, had her tongue cut out.

During this time, Jaime was the son of the mayor of the town preparing to get married, and the mayor sent the two out of town for the safety of the couple, but this did not seem to stop Mary's revenge, and on the second day of the wedding, his wife died tragically by the bedside, her tongue was cut out, and a pale puppet was placed on the bed.

Eventually, he decided to take his wife back to his hometown to bury him and find out who was in the dark.

"Where's the doll? Show me. ”

The midday sun couldn't dispel the chill in Watson's heart, and this strange way of killing made him think that things might be far more complicated than he thought.

The pale and stiff figure was taken out of the corner of the carriage by Jaime, and the dumpling next to it immediately let out a warning cry.

With the dark energy perception turned on, Watson could easily feel an extremely strong dark aura from this puppet, and it was obvious that this puppet had been in contact with some dark monsters, or was simply made by them......

Watson...... I think I can feel a terrible aura from this doll......"

"Can you feel it, too? The dark aura is so thick that even beginners can feel it...... Can you mobilize the Thunder Energy now? Use them to stimulate this puppet. ”

"I can feel a little bit but if it's moved...... I can try. ”

Vio stretched out his index finger, slowly mobilized his few mental powers, condensed between his fingers, and then reached out to the strange puppet.....
