Chapter 0238: Never Have a Beast
There was still some time before the Youth Ball, and Aldington was not in Versailles, but he rode Pandora, a banshee-winged beast, to the province of Prague.
Soon arrived at Windmill Town, in Red Maple Castle, Aldington met the Imperial Baron Varus Red Maple, because the Green Raven Forest belongs to Windmill Town, Aldington can't quietly come over and kill the lightning phantom beast in it, and must say hello to this lord.
"Lord Aldington, it's great that you can hunt this phantom beast, as long as it's still in the Green Raven Forest for a day, it's a big danger to the safety of the people under my rule."
"Baron Verus, can you provide more information about this phantom beast?"
"Okay, I'll tell you all the information about this phantom beast in my family, and I hope you can capture it as soon as possible." Baron Verus was quick to say, "It appeared seventy years ago, when my grandfather was still alive, and he retired from his knighthood early to take pleasure in hunting every day. ”
The old lord often hunted in the green crow forest, and one day he was so excited about hunting that he did not leave until the evening, and then it rained a torrential rain.
Because the hunting party did not bring anything to camp in, they could only rush back as soon as possible, but as they walked, the old lord felt that something was wrong, because they were lost. The old lord had probably been hunting in the forest for decades, not believing that he would get lost, and then he kept walking with the team.
Then they came to a forest that they had never found before, with heavy rain and thunder and lightning.
At this time, the phantom beast appeared, it was hidden in the night and rain, and no one noticed its appearance at all, but when the lightning swept through the sky and slashed towards the green crow forest, everyone suddenly saw that this phantom beast was lying on a big tree with its feet, and with the help of the big tree, it conducted lightning, and then devoured the lightning.
"It was an incredible scene, the phantom beast opened its mouth and completely devoured the thick lightning, and then the light disappeared, and everyone lost the appearance of the phantom beast again."
Verus continued, "But every time lightning strikes, the phantom beast appears to devour the lightning, and then what is even more terrifying is that it starts attacking my grandfather's team, and the lightning also slashes at the team, and my grandfather thinks that the phantom beast chases the lightning and scatters the team to escape. ”
Outcome.
That night passed, and there were only seventeen people who came back alive in the hunting party of more than thirty people, the dead knights and the knights, and the old lord's favorite second son.
"From then on, my grandfather began to search for this phantom beast to avenge my uncle, but he couldn't find it on a regular basis. It only appears on the night of a thunderstorm, and when chasing lightning, it will also kill the knight, and when the sky clears, even the knight's body cannot be found. ”
The old lord looked for it for nearly five years until he died, that is, he saw it a few times on the night of a thunderstorm, not to mention revenge, he was almost killed by the phantom beast.
"The phantom beast on the night of the thunderstorm is an invincible existence, if it weren't for the dragon power of the dragon beast, we would think it was a dragon beast." Verus shook his head with palpitations, "Before my grandfather died, he sighed and said that he could only wait for a sunny day to kill it, but this is a phantom beast that will never be found on a sunny day. ”
After a pause, Baron Verus said, "That's why the family named it the Eternal Beast. ”
"Never a beast?" Aldington chewed on the name, "Did your Red Maple family continue to look for it later, or did you find it on a thunderstorm night in the recent past?" ”
"I have looked for it, my father has been looking for it all his life, and I have been looking for it for more than ten years, and there will never be a beast in the daytime, on a sunny day, as if it does not exist. We've searched every corner of the Green Raven Forest, but we still can't find it. But as long as there is lightning on the night of a thunderstorm, there is a figure of the Eternal Beast. ”
"Do you only haunt the forest?"
"No, there have been a few times when the Neverbeast has appeared in Windmill Town, and even thirty years ago, the Neverbeast appeared in Red Maple Castle, when I was a kid and saw it right on top of the tower, devouring lightning." Verus closed his eyes, as if to recall, "It was like a ghost, without a trace of footsteps walking." ”
After the rain stopped, the Red Maple family inspected the castle inside and out, but still did not find any trace of the Eternal Beast.
Since then, there have been some adventuring groups and mercenary groups that have entered the Green Raven Forest in an attempt to find and hunt the Never-Dead, but all of them have failed.
The news of the Never-Beast spread.
"Will there be any thunderstorms in the near future?" Aldington looked up at the sky, there were thick clouds, but they weren't dark clouds.
"There will be thunderstorms in the Green Crow Forest all year round, as short as ten days, as long as a month, and there will inevitably be the next one, but whether it will be a thunderstorm night, I dare not guarantee."
"Then I'll disturb Lord Verus for the next few days."
"It is an honor for the Red Maple Family to be able to receive you, my lord."
In this way, Aldington lived in Red Maple Castle, and went to the Green Raven Forest to look for it during the day, he activated the evil condensation vision and kept searching, as long as it was a phantom beast, it was basically impossible to escape his eyes. However, after five days of searching, he found nothing, even if he went to the Green Crow Forest in the evening, but he did not find anything.
As described by the Red Maple family, this phantom beast is indeed a phantom beast that can never be found in the daylight or on a sunny day, and the Never-Beast is as its name suggests.
On the seventh day, the clouds finally came.
"There's going to be a thunderstorm, Lord Aldington." Baron Verus said.
"I know, I hope it's night."
"Do you need me and the Knights to follow?"
"No, I don't."
"Please be careful, although the strongest person to be hunted by the Eternal Beast is only the Elite Knight, we don't know how powerful it really is."
"Don't worry, in the realm of the Plantagenet Kingdom, there are indeed strong people who can kill me, but it will never be this Eternal Beast with its head and tail exposed."
Aldington is confident.
However, he strategically despises the enemy and tactically values the enemy, and when the thunder and lightning finally pour down with the heavy rain at night, he puts on the armor of the phantom beast, puts on the wolf armor, the eagle helmet and the victory cloak, and takes the big cat Hogg into the green crow forest. He also had the Red Maple family build a few thick iron rods.
Stick these irons in the clearing of the forest, waiting for lightning to strike.
Hack!
A bolt of lightning stretched across the sky, illuminating the dark night, but the lightning did not land, so the Never-Beast could not see it. Aldington shimmered with the light of phantom beast armor and phantom weapons, and hid quietly in the tent with the big cat Hogg, waiting quietly, ready to go.
Suddenly, another bolt of lightning appeared in the sky, but unfortunately the place where it landed was far away from the Green Crow Forest. After three or four bolts of lightning, just when Aldington was a little impatient, a new bolt of lightning quickly fell from the night sky, streaked through a zigzag trajectory, and fiercely concentrated the iron rods in the clearing.
At this moment, Aldington clearly saw that a huge phantom beast was lying on the iron rod and devoured the lightning in one bite.
"Never Beast!"
The purple-white light, even after the lightning disappeared, still outlined the outline of the Eternal Beast, quietly suspended on the edge of the iron rod, and the limbs did not fall to the ground.
Aldington's eyes twinkled, and he quickly drew his Parasitic Tree Sword, glanced at the big cat Hogg, and told it the direction of the beast at this moment.
Because the big cat Hogg couldn't see the Forever Beast after the lightning disappeared.
Only Aldington could see that the Never-Beast was lazily levitating and stretching, it was definitely not an ordinary phantom beast all the time.
