Chapter 258: Grave Phalanx

As Thor had ordered, the coachman turned onto the path to Millsail Town.

After a short half a day, the walls of Mofan Town and the roofs of some towering buildings appeared in front of him.

The coachman slowed down, "My lord, there is Mofan Town ahead, should I drive in directly or stop outside?" ”

"Stay in the woods and wait for me like last time."

Thor didn't think he would waste too much time going to Mill Sail Town this time, and it was estimated that it would only take half a day, so he asked the coachman to wait outside.

Suddenly, the coachman stared out of the woods and tapped on the car door in horror, "Big, sir, look ahead!" ”

Thor immediately pushed back the window and looked out.

In the next second, his brow furrowed tightly.

In front of the woods, there was originally a field. The last time Thor visited, his fellow countryman Ada was turning over the soil in the fields.

And now there are rows of small dirt bags half a person high on the flat land that has been reclaimed with great difficulty.

The little earthen bag was like an upside-down bowl, more like a tomb without a tombstone.

At a glance, those small earthen bags were neatly arranged, forming a regular phalanx.

Roughly swept away, there are also hundreds.

"Don't come any closer, just wait here." As soon as he finished speaking, Thor rushed out of the carriage like a wind.

He was fast, his gray cloak hunting in the wind. The hood falls off, revealing his short black hair and light gray skin.

It's already midsummer, and even the morning breeze blows on people and it's warm.

But now Thor could only feel a biting coldness.

As soon as he stepped on the ridge of the field, several small stones made a "gurgling" sound as he rolled the earth into the field below.

The ground was cracked like stones, and not a single weed was missing.

Thor stood on the edge of the field, and immediately felt a strong smell of death.

These little dirt bags are indeed graves.

This field was once full of life, but in just a few months, it became a cemetery!

Those fragments of souls that were easily scattered in the air were as conspicuous as ghostly fire in Thor's eyes.

Thor narrowed his eyes, his cold gaze sweeping across the cemetery.

"After I left, there was a massacre here. Not only that, but they also crushed the souls of the dead. Is it afraid that someone who is good at dark witchcraft will torture the soul of the dead? ”

It's just a little weird.

As far as Saul knew, it didn't take any special magic circle to destroy the souls of ordinary people.

Therefore, these neatly arranged tombs are very strange.

Not only is each tomb the same size and height, but also horizontal and vertical, forming a square square.

But in this seemingly strange tomb phalanx, Thor couldn't find a single magic fluctuation.

"Is this based on a witchcraft circle or a sacrificial ritual? Could it be that the barbarians are back? Or is it someone else's deliberate posture to fool outsiders? Thor sneered, and then looked at the town not far away.

The gates of the town were closed, and the lazy soldiers who had been on guard at the gates were nowhere to be seen, presumably as one of the graveyards.

In fact, before Saul came, he also vaguely wondered if there would be any accidents in Mofan Town.

It's just that he thinks that if the person who secretly used the Mosheng Fruit behind his back wants to keep it a secret and not alarm others, then he shouldn't touch Mofan Town.

Or is the secret in the town of Mill Sail actually more important than the fact that someone is eyeing the Grinding Fruit?

"I don't know what happened to Ada and Penny, I remember when I told them to get out of here." Thor was a little worried about the two of them.

There are some wooden Ada, and Penny, a cute girl who is entangled in a nightmare cocoon.

As an ordinary person, if you want to live in this world more peacefully, it is best not to have too much to do with wizards.

Although they are no longer the same people, Thor still does not want the fellow who once took him in to die here.

However, reason told Thor that if there really was a wizard who wanted to destroy the entire Mill Sail Town, those two ordinary people would probably not be able to escape......

"Do you leave and don't see anything, or do you ......?"

Thor glanced at the gates of Millsail again. The door was tightly closed, and there was silence behind the back door.

There was no smoke from the morning cooking, and there was not a trace of insects and birds chirping in the sky above the town.

"Maybe there are still clues about the grinding fruit in the town." He convinced himself.

Instead of going to the town, Thor jumped off the field and walked straight to a grave.

He carefully unleashed a detection witchcraft, and the grave reacted a little.

"Even if there used to be any witchcraft circles or rituals here, they are now abandoned. There is no magic fluctuation left. ”

After the inspection, Thor immediately crouched down, inserted his hands into the soil, and directly dug out a large piece of grave soil and set it aside.

He's going to open the tomb and see what's underneath.

"My lord, let me do this kind of work." The coachman, who was standing on tiptoe in the distance, saw that Thor had begun to dig the grave with his bare hands, and hurriedly shouted loudly.

Thor didn't look back, but just raised his arm and waved his hand to signal that the coachman didn't need to come, and continued to turn over the earth.

After the transformation, although his skin has changed back to a human form, both strength and tenacity far exceed that of ordinary warriors.

Digging a grave with bare hands is no longer than a shovel.

As for why you don't use witchcraft, it's because you're afraid that the energy released by witchcraft will destroy its secrets.

A few minutes later, with Thor's careful movements, a tomb was hollowed out, revealing a package inside.

The material used to wrap it was just a tattered shirt with bright red blood on it.

"The blood stains are bright red and the same as what just flowed out, and this tomb phalanx is really a little abnormal."

Judging by the size of the package, it was certainly not a complete corpse inside.

Thor frowned and opened the package.

Inside were a few pieces of meat that were fresh enough to be thrown onto the market board.

Thor flipped the pieces of meat with his hands across the cloth.

An eye was found under several pieces of flesh that he didn't belong to.

"Dismemberment?"

It's becoming more and more like the methods of the barbarians.

Thor got up and checked the other graves again.

He randomly chose graves to dig up, some near the center and some at the edge.

The tombs were all covered with a rudimentary garment and pieces of flesh.

Thor found three hands in one of the graves. And judging by the shape of the hands, they belong to three people.

Thor was now almost certain that none of the pieces of meat in each of the grave bags belonged to the same person.

There is no dismemberment of the body, and it is also buried in a mixed manner.

Thor re-dressed the limbs and put them back in the grave, but did not cover up the grave soil in the first place.

Thor returned to the ridge and was silent for a long time, before he raised his hand and summoned the mage's hand to cover the floating earth he had dug up.

"There are no witchcraft props or magic circles hidden under the grave, is it really someone who is bored to make an art display out of everyone's corpses?"

With no more to be found in the tomb, Thor decides to enter the town of Millsail.

After cleaning the mud and sand off his body and hands, Thor put on his hood and walked slowly towards the town.

However, just when Thor was only a dozen meters away from the gate of the town, the gate of Mofan Town was suddenly pushed open with a small crack.

An old man leaned out half of his body from inside.

The man was unkempt and dirty, but Thor still recognized him the moment he saw him.

"Old madman?"

Thor stepped forward quickly, but the other party suddenly stretched out a withered and thin arm and pushed forward.

"Go back." He said, "Don't come in. ”

Naturally, Thor wouldn't be all left by him like this.

He didn't retreat, but advanced, "Old madman, are you still alive?" What about the others? What about Ada and Penny? ”

The old madman was shocked, and he looked up at Thor with a complicated expression, his eyes gradually stained with madness.

"I said you can't trade with the barbarians, you can't, you can't...... The village was ruined, everyone died...... The village is ruined, everyone is dead......"

He didn't wait for Thor to say anything more, and suddenly slipped back inside, slamming the door shut.

Thor walked to the city gate, and was about to push hard with his hand on the gate, when suddenly he heard the sound of a surge.

"Whoa...... Wow...... Whoop ......"

Mofan Town is located in Mobei, a place where water resources are scarce. And Saul remembered that there was no river in the town at all.

Where does the tide come from?
