Chapter 70: Singing? Girlish? Dream?

The indescribable pain of "Woo ......" woke Dipo from his deep sleep, and Dipo couldn't help but get up and clutch his abdomen in pain, just like the sharp pain when Viskelting, the vice-captain of the base, attacked him for the last time in the morning. Sure enough, as she said, the punishment came in the break time when you didn't work or go to class? The pain came like a storm, but it stopped abruptly, as if nothing had happened. However, I will not be able to fall asleep in a short period of time.

"What's wrong? What happened? Just as he was in his own melancholy, the curtain was lifted, and the bright starlight illuminated the figure of Fude and filled the dark space around him.

It wasn't the academy quarters or the Nightwing Guard's headquarters, but a large forest twenty kilometers south of Silas. After returning from Fetts' office in the morning, Fude took him out of the school for a "practice class", where the Nightwings detected the faint signal of the cursed beast, but the Magic Eye could not find any traces, there were at least four villages and towns around the forest, and the situation had to be confirmed to ensure safety, and Debo's task was to personally monitor the area as a ranger in groups with other out-of-town personnel. Of course, his "practical class" was taught by Forde, so it was natural to be with him when he was in the group. For half a day, the two of them searched almost every corner of the area they were responsible for, but found nothing. According to the plan, they will camp at the designated location and stay overnight to continue to stay and observe, with Fode in charge of the first half of the night, and Dipo in charge of the second half of the night......

Forde, who had been keeping vigil not far away, heard Dipo moaning in the tent and immediately rushed in silently and quickly.

"I didn't ...... It's okay......" Di Bo said with a wry smile while holding his abdomen, "The vice-captain's punishment is just ......"

"Cut, I see, I thought you were attacked by a cursed beast...... "Fude seemed to have suddenly realized it, and he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to complain: "I said that you don't want to fight against the vice-captain, I remember telling you about her horror on the first day I came...... Should you say you're a bad person? Or do you deserve it? Or both? Although Fude did not participate in that operation as an attack group because he was out on a mission, he still understood the whole process.

Listening to Fude's complaints, Dibo's thoughts drifted to the moment when he stopped Viskelting twice in that operation, maybe he had too little knowledge and was immature, right? But really, at that moment he didn't think of anything himself, but there was a strong desire that urged him to stop what he thought was cruel and wrong, even if it was to do it again and receive a heavier punishment. Of course, it doesn't make much sense to think about this now, looking at the night outside, Dipo estimated that the time was about the same, and he couldn't sleep anyway, and it happened that Fude was also here, so it was better to change shifts, thinking so, Dipo blurted out.

"That's fine. It's about the same. Fude turned his head and looked at the night like Dipo to estimate the time, but he didn't plan to sleep, but reflexively exited the tent, pointed to the microphone stone in his ear, and explained: "Just now, the deputy captain conveyed the order from the headquarters. The people who kept vigil in the first half of the night returned to the base to attend a meeting to discuss the rest of the matter. It's up to you in the second half of the night, and if there's anything to call the surrounding squads. ”

"Understood...... Dipo agreed, smiling as he got up and walked out of the tent to sit by the fire as he watched Fude's figure disappear.

In the late autumn suburbs, the cold wind gusts, and nature has begun to show a hideous chill, Dipo pretends to be a forest ranger on the surface, roasting the fire freely, but inside he is always vigilant about the movements around him, and even the slightest movement of dead leaves will attract his attention.

I don't know how long it was, and while Dipo was engrossed in watching for something around him, a melodious sound sounded on the south side of the forest, as if it were some kind of instrument. In the sound of the piano, the natural female voice sang small but clear, and the sound caught Dibo's attention and he couldn't help but listen carefully.

O earth, grant them eternal rest under the will of God,

and let the unquenchable light shine over them.

O God, thou art preached in the world,

May this hymn be heard by you,

It is played in this land.

Listen to my prayers,

All living beings will eventually accept your guidance.

O earth, grant them eternal rest under the will of God,

and let an undying light reign over them......

In the dead of night, the song does not have the chilling sense of fear in horror novels, but conveys a sense of serenity, peace and calm.

"What is this?" Dipo looked in the direction where the song came from but couldn't see anything, remembering that before he left, he knocked on the sound stone in his ear and reported: "Four groups, six groups, here are three groups, there is a situation, there is a situation, there is a situation......"

"Poof...... Poof......" The expected familiar answer was not heard, only a murmur, much to Debo's surprise, and he repeatedly slapped the sound stone as well.

"Is it broken?" Dipo grumbled suspiciously, the piano still singing, and after making this assumption, Dipo looked around. Because this operation is only a reconnaissance and patrol nature, there is only a general division between each group, and there is no provision for a specific place to settle down and rest, and the team members can only rely on the sound stone to communicate, and now the sound stone is suspected to be damaged, so to find teammates can only rely on their feet to find this vast forest, which is simply time-consuming and laborious, and it is now late at night, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty. In desperation, Dipo had to search for it on his own, hoping that the other teams would be able to detect the anomaly and meet them on the road.

Following the sound of the piano and singing, Dipo shuttled through the grass and thorns in the woods, and when the sound gradually became louder, a winding path appeared in front of Dibo's eyes, looking at the end of the road was a three-story pavilion of medium size, which seemed to be a church and a little like an academy for his own study, but what made Dipo care most was the roof, and he saw at a glance that there was a girl sitting on the top of the building with something like a piano in her arms, and she was undoubtedly the initiator of the music and singing. Although there was still a certain distance, Dipo could already faintly see her appearance, a snow-white dress, delicate facial features, and long hair that reached down to her waist, which looked divine, quiet and peaceful against the background of the moonlight.

"Roar!" Just as Dipo was about to step forward to take a look, a hiss rang from behind the woman, and a phantage emerged. With a towering body, countless twisted and waving tentacles, and a terrifying mouth with hideous eyes, how could Dipo forget this look? It was the giant bloodstained beast that disappeared the night before!

"Danger!" In an exclamation, Dibo staggered, and in an instant, the woman in the attic and the giant bloodstained beast all disappeared, and everything was like a world away from the campfire where he was still on patrol......

"Dreams?" Shocked Dipo looked around again, if it was a dream, it would be too real, but what was the current situation if it wasn't a dream?

"Three small groups...... Three small groups, news from the headquarters that there is a small cursed beast reaction around you again, the magic eye will search the right half of your area, please confirm the left half for yourself. We'll be there. As he looked left and right, the call of his teammates in the sound stone came.

Dipo rubbed his eyes and cheered up and replied, "Roger, going." With that, Depo stood up, sorted out his equipment, and began his mission...... (End of Chapter 70)
