The Kud Mountains Chapter 5 The Army of Mad Beasts

The day after the Golem was killed, the Kud Mountains suddenly warmed up. In fact, the Kurd Mountains surrounding the capital Rossland are located in the southeast of the continent, and the climate has always been very pleasant, so there are many villages scattered in the mountains.

The afternoon sun was no longer so dazzling, and a small village loomed into view. Earl suggested that it would be better to find a family in this village to spend the night tonight, and the excessive damage of the barrier would be fed back to the enchantment mage, and the enchantment that Earl had set up last night was almost destroyed by the Ice Giant, so he has been feeling a little uncomfortable today.

"If that monster happens again tonight, I'm probably going to die of exhaustion in the Kud Mountains. Earl said self-deprecatingly.

The crowd no longer wanted to be woken up by monsters in the middle of their sleep in the wilderness like they had done last night, and they thought it would be safer in a crowded village, so they agreed with Earl's idea. Several people quickened their pace, and finally arrived at the village they had seen before sunset.

It's just that there is something strange about this village, it is supposed to be dinner time, but every house has closed its door, and there is no trace of cooking in the whole village. And the outside of the doors of each house is reinforced with steel bars, and the doors and steel bars are covered with scratch marks.

Several people came to the door of a house and knocked softly, but no one answered.

"Hello, we are passing travelers, would we like to spend the night at your house?" asked Celetia politely.

There was still dead silence behind the door, and no one answered.

"Is there no one?" asked Punirolo.

"No, I can feel the presence of a soul in every house. "But something is wrong with these souls, they all seem to have a deep fear. ”

On today's journey, Celetia has already told everyone about her abilities, Celetia is a rare spiritual magician, spiritual magic is the most difficult type of magic in the continent to learn, and only gifted magicians can master it. Mind reading is only the basics of spiritual magic, and the true essence of this magic lies in the soul that controls life.

At this time, Celetia sensed the presence of people in the house through her soul perception, but these people must have been reluctant to open the door because they were afraid of something. At this time, the sun had set, and the surroundings had already darkened, and just as several people were about to change houses and continue to knock on the door, there were suddenly bursts of low roars from fierce beasts in the distance.

"Something's coming. Possessing the hunter's keen instincts, Isred stood in front of the crowd, raising his left arm in a battle-ready stance.

Sure enough, the roar was getting closer and closer, and with the sound of countless messy footsteps, an army of different animals stopped not far from a few people. The tiger at the head scratched its paws on the ground, and the foul saliva kept dripping from its open mouth. It was surrounded by other animals that were going berserk, and even the smallest rabbit had red eyes and fangs baring out of its mouth.

"What's the matter with these animals?" asked Simmons incredulously, as a natural witch doctor, he could even communicate with most animals, but he could feel that the crazy beasts in front of him couldn't communicate at all.

"They, their souls seem to have been ......," said Celetia with a look of horror, "crushed!"

Although a spirit magician can operate on the souls of living beings, for all spirit magicians, there is a rule that although it has not been proposed, it is something that all people who study spiritual magic must abide by, that is, they must not destroy any soul with their own ability, if they violate this taboo, they will not be qualified to become themselves as spirit magicians again, and they will be immediately removed from the magic association of the Franda continent. But at this time, all the crazy animals in front of her, Celetia could not perceive the existence of their souls, which means that their souls have been completely shattered by people.

Celetia trembled angrily: "Bastard! What a bastard! How ...... so many souls"

Before Celetia could finish speaking, a gray-furred wolf pounced on them, and Punirolo whipped it over, and the wolf was kicked to the side, lying on the ground spitting blood.

But the wolf's attack kicked off the whole battle, the lion led by a roar, leading more and more beasts to pounce on them, Earl began to chant to support the enchantment, but before this there were already many beasts pounced on them, Israel Red used his demonized arm to block a lot of attacks for the few people behind him, and Xuan also drew his sword and slashed several beasts.

By the time Earl's barrier was complete, they were already surrounded by animal carcasses. Outside the barrier, countless beasts attacked and gnawed at the barrier, and Earl could only keep chanting spells to reinforce it.

"It's not the way to go on like this, so many animals have their souls destroyed, how long are we going to fight?" shouted Simmons.

"Soulless creatures can only be called walking dead, and they cannot appear in the sun during the day. "But will we really make it into daylight?"

At this time, there are still a lot of animals with red eyes in the forest pouring out, joining the army of beasts that destroy the enchantment, and this goes on endlessly, and Earl's enchantment doesn't know if it can last until the moment when all the animals retreat, just when everyone is planning to let Earl lift the enchantment and fight, Aso suddenly spoke: "That...... I can help everyone."

Several people turned their heads to look at Asu, not knowing what kind of ability this weak little girl had to deal with these thousands of crazy beasts.

Aso lowered his head, and his voice was quieter than just now: "I'm going to start, please stay away from me, the farther away the better." ”

With that, Aso walked to the edge of the barrier, "Earl, let me out, you can take everyone and the barrier away from me." ”

"Are you crazy?" said Earl in astonishment, "you'll be devoured by them as soon as you appear." ”

"I didn't ...... It's okay, please trust me. Aso said anxiously.

Israel waved his hand and said to Earl, "Trust Aso, she must be something unusual about the Faceless Church's chosen person. ”

Listening to Israed's words, Earl nodded, changed to a chanted tune, and moved backwards, and the barrier slowly began to move with Earl. Everyone moved at the same pace as Earl, except for Aso, who remained where he was.

"Don't come near me. With that, the barrier passed through Aso, excluding her. The beast, which had been waiting outside for a long time, seemed to see the most delicious prey in the world, and pounced on Aso like crazy. But as soon as they entered within five meters of Aso, the eyes of those beasts instantly lost their light and fell to the ground dead. And the range is still expanding, five meters, ten meters, fifteen meters, twenty meters...... Aso seems to have drawn a giant circle with himself as the center, and all beasts that enter the range will be declared dead instantly.

However, these soul-deprived beasts did not have such judgment, and one by one they ran mechanically in the direction of Aso, and then died under Aso's terrifying ability. I don't know how long it took, but a hill of corpses piled up around Aso, and almost all the beasts were wiped out.

The stunned group of people in the enchantment were blocked by the mountain of animal corpses, and they couldn't even see Aso in the middle of the corpse. When the surroundings were completely safe, Earl lifted the barrier and shouted to Aso in a trembling voice, "Aso, have your abilities been lifted? ”

"Ah, it's okay, let's come here. Asu's voice was still small, but in everyone's ears, it was very different from just now.

Islade took the lead and walked over, crossed the corpse mountain, and saw Aso sitting on his knees in place, he had a feeling that Aso seemed to be more radiant than before, his eyes were brighter, and even the silver hair seemed to be a little longer than before, and it was no longer the lifeless beautiful doll before.

Aso looked up and saw Israde, staring at him, his dark blue pupils revealing panic, as if he had made some big mistake. Israel Rade carried Aso over the corpses around him and returned to the crowd.

By this time, the moon had climbed into the air, and there was an eerie silence all around. Aso stared down at the ground, his hands clasped in front of him.

"Aso, you ...... just now" Celetia had not finished her words when the door behind her suddenly creaked open.
