Shaman from Afar

Chapter 20: Mission without clue (Part 2)

First, there are six victims-the first three are not locals in the village and town, they are mercenaries from the south, hawkers selling shoes, and vegetable farmers who have just moved to the village and town. They are all ordinary people who are inconspicuous to the extreme. Even after they died for a few days, no one noticed what went wrong.

And those who were killed later will be more interesting. The fourth incident was the eldest son of a wealthy businessman in Gumu Town. Being able to mix up rich people in such villages and towns, this wealthy businessman is naturally also a side branch of a certain nobility and is quite pious. It was also after this accident that Father Anthony began to think about it.

The fifth and sixth people were killed at the same time-one of them was a trainee priest in the church. It seems that he is still very young. I am afraid that it was also the church that he joined not long ago.

"As for the other, it is Father Anthony's nephew, and he is the only junior." Draco's expression was rather embarrassed: "It is also because of this that Father Anthony's temper will become so bad, I hope you can understand him ——The priests of the Holy Cross Church are not allowed to get married, and it is even less likely that there will be offspring. The priest ’s affection for him is no different from that of his son. "

"I understand." Loren nodded. Although he confirmed the identity of the six corpses, he still had no clue. The six people had nothing left except for a few pieces of carrion bitten by the ghoul.

In order to be safe, he also carefully inspected the remaining pieces of corpses, and they did have traces of being torn by claws and fangs. It was said that it was completely bitten by the ghoul, but there was only one problem.

"How do you tell who these corpses are?" Loren was a little confused: "All the heads and torso of the upper body are gone, how do you recognize their identity?"

"Uh?" The Draco priest's sad expression was a bit stupefied, as if scratching his head in retrospect: "The first three people were only discovered after the rich merchant's eldest son had an accident, so they basically depended on the surrounding villagers. Identify, so no one knows the names of these three poor people. "

"As for the priest ’s nephew and the trainee priest, the whole day they were almost alarmed the next day they were killed. When the guards arrived there, they saw that the ghouls were still biting them. of……"

Speaking of this, the Draco priest resisted the urge to spit out, and it took a long time to calm down: "But because of this, we only figured out what the real murderer is behind all this."

"Where are those ghouls now?"

"I don't know, but ... no one has seen those monsters since the priest's nephew." The priest Draco shook his head: "Maybe they hid?"

Hide? impossible. Although ghouls are not killer monsters, their nature determines that they cannot endure hunger, which is also an important reason why they eat rot.

"Is there a burial pit or a place like an ancient cemetery in Gumu Town?"

"There is a tomb that has been abandoned for a long time, but why do you ask this?" The priest looked at him suspiciously: "Are the ghouls hiding there?"

"There is this possibility-no, it should be said that it is very possible." Loren replied very firmly: "Do you know where the tomb is? Just tell me a general direction, I can find it myself."

Priest Draco looked a little hesitant, but soon he resolutely stared at Loren: "No, let me take you personally, if possible, I want to get rid of this group of corpses. The ghost does its best, even if it's only trivial. "

……………… The abandoned tomb mentioned by the priest is just outside the ancient wood town, and the original slate remains around it. Obviously it was the place where the local villagers buried the dead in the past, but it has been abandoned for a long time. It was so overgrown with vines and weeds that almost sealed the entrance of the entire tomb.

But Loren still found something on the ground-from the entrance of the tomb to the floor outside, some footprints can be clearly seen extending from the cave. For humans, these footprints are a bit small, but according to the ghoul's physique, it is perfect.

The most important thing is that the number of footprints is definitely not one or two, but at least a whole group. Loren squatting outside the cave narrowed his eyes into a slit, and the number of these monsters was beyond his expectations.

"How, did you find anything?" Breathless, the Draco priest, who was almost unable to keep up, could not help but asked, "Are the ghouls in this tomb?"

"You should go back first." Loren said to the priest behind him without looking back: "Here it is for me. Rest assured, I will go back to you as soon as there is progress."

"But, this ... this is too dangerous!" The priest could not help saying: "If the ghouls are really in this tomb, then we should wait for reinforcements here! Or at least the two should be together ... … "

"Trust me, I am enough by myself. If there are others, it may be bad." As he said, Loren pulled out the knight's sword from the back: "Go back and wait for my news. "

"Uh ... well, if you insist." The priest Draco stopped arguing, but still couldn't help turning back to remind Loren again and again: "You can come to me anytime, if I'm not, Then I will definitely arrange for others. May the Holy Cross always protect you, friends! "

"The Holy Cross blessed me, huh ..." Loren smiled indifferently, even if it was a "strange boy" he had encountered, more than this Holy Cross looked more reliable.

With his long sword, Loren stepped into the dark tomb. The extremely strong corpse smell and **** smell almost came over, as if he was standing in the mouth of a monster's blood basin.

With a snap of his fingers, the "Firefly Charm" with white light floated to the top of his front, only illuminating a short road ahead, so that he would not lose his vision, and would not disturb the cave. Monster.

Until he is fully prepared, he will never touch those things that he does not want to touch at all. UU reading www.uukanshu.com especially when he realizes that he may face a trap.

From the words when Dalton Kander handed him this task, he had a serious disharmony from head to toe-hostile to the wizard's church, and ghouls who attacked the living. It was hard to convince him that there was nothing hidden behind the two things.

Even if not, he will never face a group of strange monsters unprepared-no matter how many times he has seen it in the book, as long as he has not seen it with his own eyes, these monsters are still strange to himself, be careful And a cautious attitude is always a prerequisite for life-saving.

The deeper the **** smell becomes, the deeper the **** smell becomes, which is obviously very abrupt in a long-abandoned tomb. Loren began to slow down his footsteps, controlling the dimming of the "Firefly Charm", allowing his eyes to gradually adapt to the darkness in the tomb, while also reducing the possibility that he would be discovered first.

Dark vision is one of the advantages of scavenging monsters such as ghouls, and their hearing and smell are also excellent, even if they are covered with mud all over them can be found.

Cautiously dropped his feet, trying not to step on the scattered bones on the ground-skull, ribs, arm bones ... There are no more left, only a pile of bone residue on the ground. The coffins on both sides of the tomb were also messy and completely destroyed.

If this does not explain the problem, the ears are getting clearer and more creepy chewing ... Lorren stopped, standing on the spot and carefully extended his right hand to the back of the back and took out a Only small and large wooden bottles were measured in the hand, and the corner of the mouth slightly raised the proud arc.

How could I step into someone's trap without even a little preparation?
