King’s Kingdom

The night was like a black veil covering the whole world, and the raised torches and panicked shouts rendered the atmosphere extremely chaotic.

Theodosius fell into deep thought in the tent. The werewolf had disappeared for a long time in his impression. For thousands of years, they hardly existed on the land where human beings lived.

Even in the Lanyin Kingdom, an emerging country that has just driven out dark creatures for more than 40 years, only a small range of ghosts and walking corpses have appeared, which can be easily solved by the monks chanting a few incantations.

But the appearance of a werewolf, a creature that obviously does not belong to the normal category, seems a bit strange.

Without any hesitation, Theodosius put on a light armor and walked towards the village with Vico and other squires, as well as ten iron-clad paladins.

After walking for less than five minutes, Theodosius entered the village. At this time, the panic in the village had calmed down a lot, because the werewolves had been eliminated by the soldiers of the Lanyin Kingdom.

Most of the werewolves had already been killed, and the broken corpses were oozing blood all over the ground, and a rancid stench that was different from the blood of ordinary creatures came from the nostrils, which made people feel a little disgusting when they smelled it.

"Your Majesty! There were more than ten werewolves and more than twenty wild werewolves in the village, all of which were put to death under the strangulation of the warriors, and two werewolves did not die immediately and were captured by us.

Theodosius stepped forward and crouched down to examine the corpse on the ground.

The half-human, half-beast monster in front of him was covered with brown hair. It looked tougher. The overall outline was similar to that of an ordinary human. The hind legs were much longer than the front legs. A species with erect legs.

However, apart from being upright, other features are basically unrelated to humans. They only have four fingers, and the thumb has no joints and is not in the right position.

Such characteristics allow Theodosius to judge that this is a creature with extremely poor palms, and basically does not have the ability to grasp, that is to say, they have no ability to use tools and weapons, and it is estimated that they can only rely on fangs and sharp teeth. means of attack.

After making a preliminary judgment, Theodosius turned his attention to another werewolf with gray hair. This werewolf was more burly than the brown werewolf. He estimated that the standing height should be around two meters.

In addition, different from the brown werewolves, their palms also have five fingers, the thumb is composed of two phalanges like humans, and the positions are similar to those of humans, so they should have the ability to grasp.

"Strange..." Theodosius fell into contemplation. From his point of view, they looked so similar and were almost completely of the same race. There shouldn't be such a big physiological difference.

Such a big difference is almost enough to constitute reproductive isolation, but why do they still act together and are collectively called werewolves?

Theodosius felt that his understanding of the world was still too little, and a superficial reading might not allow him to fully understand the worldview here. When he made up his mind to read more books, Theodosius also asked the soldiers to The two captured werewolves were brought up.

A brown wild werewolf, a gray werewolf, Theodosius saw the live werewolf, and immediately began to observe carefully. After finding that it was almost the same as the corpse on the ground, he tried to communicate with them.

"What's your name? Can you understand human language?" Theodosius asked the gray-haired werewolf.

"Damn human beings, language does not belong to you. This is the communication ability possessed by all intelligent creatures. Don't think about getting any information from my mouth. Your doomsday is here!"

Hearing the insults of the werewolf with a gun and a stick, Theodosius was about to speak when he saw blood pouring out of his mouth. With a violent cough and convulsions, Theodosius finally slipped to the ground.

"You killed yourself by biting your tongue? But is this remark aimed at nothing or is there something else?" Theodosius didn't use his anger, but thought about what the werewolf said.

As for the other brown-haired werewolf, Theodosius also tried to communicate with it, but unfortunately this brown werewolf did not have enough intelligence to communicate, and could only utter meaningless roars and danced to break free from control , tore apart the aroma-filled human being in front of him.

After solving the werewolf incident, Theodosius returned to the tent to continue to rest, but he couldn't fall asleep. Looking at the top of the tent, he felt a little bad.

What happened to you recently is too weird, right? These so-called dark creatures have disappeared for thousands of years, but he has been in continuous contact with them in just over a month.

The elves in the north of the Hengduan Mountains came to the Kingdom of Lanyin for help because of the invasion of dark creatures. When fighting against the Northern Empire, they encountered a group of monsters without intelligence, fearless of life and death and pain. On the way back, they encountered this group of werewolves again.

Are supernatural phenomena happening to you more frequently? Is it just me who has such an experience or has other areas been invaded by these dark creatures?

Theodosius felt more and more chaotic in the situation. He keenly felt that what happened to him was probably not an exception. A different sense of urgency emerged in his heart~www.wuxiahere.com~ The speed of development must be accelerated. ! Even if the successive appearance of these dark creatures is not an omen, it at least represents the emergence of a hidden undercurrent under the calm sea of ​​the Lanyin Kingdom.

Theodosius returned to the tent, but the knights under his command were not idle. According to the orders of their king, they searched for the werewolf within ten kilometers around the village.

After the werewolf killed himself by biting his tongue, Theodosius felt that something was wrong. If he could trace their movements to find their lair, or where they lived before, he might be able to find some important clues.

However, when Theodosius woke up from his bed early the next morning, he was greatly disappointed by the news brought back by several tired iron-clad paladins.

They searched for a ten-kilometer radius, but they didn't find any trace of the werewolf, not even a piece of feces, a footprint, or even a single hair.

This seems a bit strange. Theodosius is full of puzzlement. Water has a source and a tree has roots. It is impossible to survive in this world without leaving a trace. Unless you appear suddenly, even if it is a bird in the sky Feathers and droppings are also left behind.

"Continue the search!" Theodosius was ruthless. Even if he digs three feet into the ground, he still has to find the origin of these werewolves and the location of their nests. This kind of creature that threatens the country's security must be eliminated. This is also because of his status as a king. Responsibility also represents the legitimacy of this crown.

However, a day has passed, and the search range has reached a radius of 20 kilometers, but still nothing has been found.

"In the end, what's going on?" Theodosius frowned, but the progress of the march could not be delayed. Just when he decided to return to Lanyin the next morning, Vico's voice sounded outside the tent. .
