The beginning of the disaster

Next Chapter

"Quick, I'll shoot it, chase it," Mohan shouted excitedly with a bow and arrow in his hand, asking his followers to catch up with the sudden appearance of the earthy thylacine.

The group rode quickly into the deep forest, chasing the wounded thylacine, and as they chased them into the interior of the forest, the dense woods and bushes gradually blocked the progress of the hunting party.

"Which of you saw that thylacine? Can anyone tell me his direction? Mohan asked his entourage!

At this moment, a not-so-pleasant, high-pitched voice appeared in the left corner of the line.

"Honorable Lord Mohan Antonio, that thylacine ran into the mountains to the southwest"

"Prince Mohan, if you chase it to the southwest again, you will step into the land of the Willy Kingdom!" The heavily armed knight on Mohan's left reminded kindly.

Mohan hesitated when he heard the knight's speech, the thylacine is a rare animal, the bag on its belly can be made into rare magical equipment, this creature is extremely rare in the entire continent, this hunt they were very lucky to meet one, and his father, Grand Duke Orn Antonio, is a person who is obsessed with magic, if he sacrifices this thylacine to his father, he thinks his father will be very happy. So after hesitating for a moment, Mohan asked in a loud voice Zaka, the entourage who had just told the thylacine's whereabouts.

"Xhaka I remember you were a hunter, can you track the thylacine?"

"Dear Lord Hammer, I am confident that I will find that thylacine," Xhaka said proudly

"Very good, honorable knight, I think we are just hunting, if we meet someone from the Willy Kingdom, we can also explain, not to mention that my father is the Grand Duke of Aoun, I think there won't be too much wrong with just hunting, you don't want to see such a rare thylacine escape from our hands after being injured again, right?" Hammer said to the knight.

The knight thought for a moment and did not speak, nodded slightly, and agreed.

In this way, a group of people followed Xhaka to the southwest, getting deeper and deeper. And the sky is getting darker, and the forest is getting quieter. Hammer and his party came to the bottom of a low hill full of shrubs deep in the forest, and at that moment Zaka shouted excitedly, and the group ran in the direction of Zaka.

"Your Excellency Mohan, Your Excellency Mohan, I found the thylacine, I found the thylacine." Zaka excitedly pointed to the purple blood stains next to the stone and shouted at the team.

After all the people of Mohan and his party arrived, Zaka said excitedly to Mohan

"Your Excellency Mohan, with my experience and the barbs shown by the bloodstains, I can be sure that the thylacine is in this low mountain, and that there may be a den of its nest here, and if we are lucky enough, we may even be able to meet the thylacine cubs, because this is the thylacine giving birth."

"Good Kaza, if you succeed in hunting thylacines this time, I will reward you with what you want, it is already getting late at the moment, leave two people to watch the horses camp here at the same time, and the others will start a search." With that, the group followed Kaza and began to search.

After about an hour of searching, everyone came to the door of a dark cave half a person high, and was afraid of disturbing the thylacine, the group did not have much words to follow Kaza into the cave, and after entering, they found that the cave was getting bigger and bigger, and slowly it was almost one person high, and the width was almost one person high, and the cave was uneven, and the stench of bats and other animal feces was emitted everywhere, Zaka continued to search for bloodstains, and everyone once followed behind Zaka. Suddenly, there was a scream of an animal from the depths of the cave, everyone stopped in an instant, and the whole cave began to become quiet and abnormal, Mohan looked at Zaka suspiciously, signaling what was going on, Zaka was also very puzzled, listening to the sound, it should be a thylacine's howl, but why is it so miserable? Zaka said that he didn't know, Mohan signaled to move forward again, and Zaka also cautiously began to advance, and the samurai and knights in the team also drew their weapons and followed the team slowly, and continued to advance for about 20 minutes, and everyone came to the depths of the cave. It has become very wide, there is a large hole in the top of the cave, and the moonlight shines down from the top of the cave, making the cave not so dim, and there are glittering crystal mines scattered around the cave, making this place even more mysterious. Suddenly, there was a small sound similar to a puppy whining, and with the sound Hammer and his party probably thought to the left, in a dark corner, a young thylacine was whimpering next to an adult thylacine with only half a corpse. The appearance of this scene immediately raised everyone's minds to their throats.

"All on guard to protect Hammer Gongzi," the knight immediately put on a fighting posture and said in a deep voice,

The thylacine was originally only wounded by an arrow at this time and died extremely tragically, the thylacine is a rare creature, their fur has a good magic guide, which also allows the thylacine to better camouflage itself in the jungle and hunt, and the thylacine's bones are also a very hard alchemy material, because the hardness is not inferior to the general steel and the weight is very light, it was a popular weapon forging material thousands of years ago, which also made the number of thylacine decrease sharply, So much so that most people now basically can't see a living thylacine in their lifetime, and now this adult thylacine has been torn in half by an unknown creature, and the hard bones have all broken and collapsed. A creature that can cause such trauma must not be something that a simple samurai can deal with, so everyone immediately became vigilant, and did not take the first time to recover the half thylacine and the thylacine cub, but was vigilant around.

At this time, Hammer didn't know why he always felt a pair of cold eyes looking at him around him, which made him feel extremely uneasy, and he said tremblingly:

"Your Excellency Knight, I feel like I'm being targeted by something, I think we can get out of here slowly"

The knight nodded and motioned for everyone to form a battle formation and slowly withdraw from the strange cave, and at this time, Xhaka's eyes showed a greedy light and touched the thylacine's corpse without everyone noticing, ready to recover the corpse and the thylacine's cub. Just when everyone was preparing to retreat, suddenly Zaka let out a terrifying scream, and then a black shadow flashed from Zaka's position, and everyone looked back at poor Zaka, his head was gone, and at the same time disappeared with an arm, and the whole person stood in a strange posture, as if he had not yet realized that he was dead.

"Demon, there is a demon living here" A frightened cry came out in the team, and the people who were frightened by this scene began to run frantically towards the way back in a desperate panic, and the knight pulled Hammer, who had been frightened and sluggish, to run frantically towards the outside of the cave, and at this moment, there were screams one after another from the dark and gloomy cave, and after a while the cave returned to calm. At this time, Hammer sat paralyzed on the ground, the knight and another attendant warrior stood on both sides of Hammer with a long sword in hand, sweating vigilantly looking around, the atmosphere did not dare to breathe, just when they were extremely nervous, suddenly from the place where they had just run out of the cave, a beautiful song sounded, which song was ethereal, tempting, and revealing a trace of holiness, like a heavenly sound.

Hammer's pupils slowly dilated when he heard the song, and then his entire eyeball turned bottomless black, Hammer slowly stood up from the ground, and walked back to the cave slowly and mechanically with the song, and behind him followed the knight and his retinue, whose eyeballs turned dark black, and they followed the song step by step towards the place they had just fled.......
