Chapter 184: The Beginning of the Hunt (5)
Based on his own speculation, Aaron is almost certain that it was the demons that caused the villagers to appear in a state of poor spirit, and most of them were ghosts at night.
Therefore, he was going to go out at night to keep vigil, which should make some discoveries.
At night, gusts of cold wind blew over the village road, making a whistling sound.
Since the villagers all turned off the lights and rested very early, the village was so quiet at this time that it seemed as if a needle had fallen on the ground, and it could be heard.
The faint night light shining on the village looks a little weird, and the whirring wind is very scary.
"Chip, keep an eye on everything around you, and give me a hint if there is any change!" Aaron walked to the center of the village, found a random place to sit down, and then handed over the task of monitoring to Chip.
One person just sat quietly alone, his eyes always paying attention to the movements around him.
Suddenly, he seemed to hear something.
Then the sound of the chip sounded, and at first Aaron thought there was a situation, but when he looked through the chip, it turned out to be just a movement made by a mouse, so he retracted his thoughts and continued to sit quietly in place.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was already clouded, and it would not be long before it was completely dawn.
"Well, it looks like there's no harvest tonight. Seeing that it was almost dawn, Aaron felt that this time it was no show, and he had to wait for the next night to come and continue to monitor again.
Because of Aaron's high mental strength, even though he sat outside all night. I didn't feel sleepy at all, and I didn't feel any tiredness.
Soon, the sky was completely bright. Many villagers have begun to smoke from the chimneys above their houses, and they are making fires to make meals.
By this point, Aaron finally stood up, twisted his neck a few times, and then turned and walked in the direction of the cabin.
Back in the cabin this time, Geralt didn't ask anything. Instead, they remained silent.
Night fell again, and Aaron, as he had done yesterday, took advantage of the darkness to walk out of the cabin. Again came to the central location of the village.
This time, though, instead of finding a place to sit quietly and wait, he walked around, mainly worried that something might happen. The chip can't be found. So it's better to act together on your own, so it's safer.
Tonight, as last time, there was silence in the village, nothing was noticed, and after a whole night of keeping watch outside, nothing was gained.
But Aaron will not be discouraged by this, just because he didn't get anything in two days doesn't mean he won't find anything in the future.
Next. Aaron spent five nights in a row outside, alas. So far, there has been no progress at all.
And tonight, he came out again to make his rounds, and while walking in the village road, he thought: "It's been a whole week, and I still haven't found anything abnormal, could I have thought wrong from the beginning?"
At this point, Aaron couldn't help but start to doubt his own guess at the beginning, if he was wrong at the beginning, then now he was just wasting time.
After pondering for a while, Aaron felt that he should not be wrong: "Forget it! wait a few more days to see, if this is still the case, you have to start in other aspects." ”
Although there were a lot of doubts in his heart, Aaron still planned to hold on for a few more days and talk about it then.
However, just as Aaron was thinking, something suddenly floated by.
Suddenly, Aaron seemed to feel something, and he had a creepy feeling in his heart, and subconsciously looked in that direction.
"Hmm, is it an illusion!" At a glance, Aaron frowned slightly, he didn't see anything, and the chip didn't give any hints, and suddenly suspected that it was just his own illusion.
"No, it shouldn't be an illusion!" Aaron thought about it carefully, and then felt that what he just did was not an illusion, it was really something passing by him, and even the chip didn't notice it.
After making a judgment, Aaron felt that there should be something to be gained tonight, and immediately walked around quickly.
After patrolling back and forth in the neighborhood several times, Aaron suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart just now, and immediately turned around, this time turning very quickly, and finally let him see it!
At this time, what appeared in Aaron's sight was actually a guy who looked like a human, but this strange creature was floating half a meter above the ground with its feet off the ground, and its whole body was emitting a green shimmer.
"There is no substance!" Aaron saw the creature, only to see it pass directly through the wall of a house and disappear from sight.
Aaron saw it very clearly, it was really just like that, and when he saw this, the first reaction in his mind was that it felt like it should be a spirit body, not a real entity.
Only in this way can we explain everything we have just seen.
As soon as the spirit disappeared from sight, Aaron quietly leaned over to the house he had entered, intending to see if it was inside.
Once he got close to the house, Aaron stopped and looked through the window at his current distance.
"Sure enough, it's inside!" Through the window, Aaron did see the spirit that had just been there, and that spirit was floating directly above a bed where a villager was lying.
However, the villager was sleeping soundly, and could not tell what was happening next to him at this time, and snored while falling asleep.
"What the hell is it doing?" Seeing the spirit just floating there, doing nothing, Aaron didn't understand what the hell that guy was doing.
After observing the outside of the house for a while, the spirit finally fluttered again, passed through the wall, and left the house, heading towards the houses of the other villagers.
When Aaron saw this, he immediately followed.
"Again!" Following the spirit to the outside of the second house, Aaron found that it was still behaving the same as before, not knowing what it was doing or what it was about.
In the next two houses, the spirit did the same thing.
"Let's go back and ask Geralt!" After following the spirit for a while, Aaron still didn't understand anything, feeling that this was a waste of time and couldn't see anything, so he decided to go back and report to Geralt to see what he would say.
After making a decision in his heart, Aaron immediately turned away and went back to Geralt for help, he really didn't have any eyebrows at all, and it was necessary for Geralt to know something. (To be continued......)
