"Father, this is not the place you should come." Not long after Palatine and Macedonia walked, a group of burly men approached. The leader, a giant man with a bare chest and a full two meters, stood in front of the two Paladins, like a dark cloud covering the sun, looking down at Paladin and Macedonia so warned.
Macedon is a Templar anyway. After rigorous training, he possesses the strength of a five-star warrior. Although this giant man in front of him looks scary, he is not a Macedonian opponent at all. I saw Macedon's hand quickly pressing on the hilt of the sword at his waist, accompanied by the light from the silver-white armor on his body, an invisible murderous aura rushed towards his face, and stepped forward to block Palatine: "We don't mean to offend. The stability of Qingshui Town is just to come over to buy some necessary supplies, and then leave immediately."
Perhaps it was Macedonia's silver armor that made the giant man a little afraid, or he didn't want to have any unpleasantness with the Holy See. In addition, there are tens of thousands of public servants waiting for a few miles. Under such intimidation, the giant nodded slightly, took a step back, looked at Macedon and said, "I hope you can be smarter. If something unpleasant happens here, it will not be good for you or me. You know, now the town It’s not safe here.” Correspondingly, Macedonia ignored the silence. The giant man didn't want to pay any attention to the soldiers of the Holy See, so he let out a loud shout and left with a gang of vicious men behind him. I plan to see some friends instruct me not to touch the two people in the Holy See.
But at this time Paladin didn't care about these mediocre mortals at all. His keen hearing allows him to hear everyone on the street talking, even the whispers. But what surprised Palatine was that in those conversations about what to do tonight, or where to go to vote, two local robbers who had settled down were heard murmuring: "Have you heard? The old man and his family were all gone this morning! Then they found their bones in the nearby woods. Tsk tsk tsk, the corpses were gnawed to pieces. Even the internal organs were eaten clean!"
"Do you think there might be some monsters running in! Otherwise, with Mante's skills, ordinary beasts are not enough to look at." "Yes, I think so too! There have been about a dozen or so in the past few days. People were eaten! It is said that the bosses held a meeting last night, and they will block the town tonight, so that no one can enter or leave!"
Hearing such information, Paladin raised his eyebrows slightly. He walked quietly behind Macedon, and suddenly asked with a weird smile: "I heard that people are often eaten in this town recently, right?" Macedon looked back at Paladin in surprise. Although he didn't speak, the expression on his face clearly showed how you knew. Palatine stepped back slightly and glanced around. He lowered his voice and asked, "That is to say, you did those who were eaten? Just for a girl? Hahaha, it seems that you are more powerful than I thought."
"What nonsense!" Macedon frowned and said angrily. Seeing that no one around him was paying attention, he replied in a lower voice than Paladin: "I didn't do these people!" "Isn't it you?" Paladin nodded slightly. He knew there was no need for Macedonia to deceive him about this sort of thing. I think he also knew that there were monsters eating people here, so he abducted the girl in Qingshui Town. After all, having a World of Warcraft as a shield would be great. "Why, you don't believe me?"
"Don't talk about this, let's find a suitable candidate. After all, the archbishop must be lonely tonight." Paladin perfunctory Macedonian, the latter glared at the latter angrily, and walked away. But Paladin looked at Macedonia's back and smiled gloomily. After turning a corner, they disappeared into the street.
"You remember, this town is not big, but there are many powerful people. Later, we will find some thieves who are selling news, and we should be able to know who is suitable. And... do you hear me? ?" After talking to himself for a long time, there was no answer behind him. Immediately unhappy Macedon turned his head, but was surprised to see that there was only one unmanned brown horse behind him. Paladin's figure has long disappeared. The stunned look on his face was replaced by anger in the blink of an eye. Macedonian's armoured arm slammed on his leg, gritted his teeth and roared, "You bastard, you ran away by yourself! I must sue you in front of the archbishop tonight!"
Leaving aside the angry Macedonia. Palatine was walking down the dark alley at the moment. When it was confirmed that there was no one else, the almighty eye on his forehead appeared again. Paladin could see all the places that were irradiated by the sun within 100 meters. The dilapidated stone house, the earth in the flowerpot on the balcony on the second floor, the eyes of the bird resting on the roof stretching its feathers, and the crowds coming and going on the street in the distance and the Macedonian cursing in secret. These are all obvious at a glance.
Just walking quietly, feeling the clues that may appear, just as I was about to reach the edge of the woods, such a picture suddenly flashed in front of my eyes. A huge beast like a giant was lying on the grass, opening its bloody mouth and biting the prey on the ground. That prey is nothing special. Just a mercenary in armor. Of course, it is impossible to tell whether it is male or female. Only pieces of broken minced meat and blood stained with red weeds all over the place.
Paladin smiled slightly, the almighty eye on his forehead dissipated immediately, and he rushed to the woods with his feet.
When Palatine dodged into the woods and stood behind the huge humanoid beast. The beast suddenly felt that there was someone behind him, and turned his head sharply, revealing a ferocious and terrifying appearance, and was about to slap this dead lunch with one hand! "Aberley! Tired of living!" The human-shaped beast in front of him was the monster Aberley who had been lurking behind Paladin! At this moment, he suddenly saw that the person in front of him was his master. Coupled with Palatine's icy gaze, the originally ferocious aura instantly withered away. Abery, who was almost three meters tall and had elbows as thick as a man's waist, immediately lay on his back. on the ground. With pitiful eyes, like a puppy being scolded, he made bursts of whining sounds that were completely inappropriate for his size.
Paladin kicked Abel on the head, and the latter, who was in pain, immediately hid by the tree trunk and looked at his master in fear. Paladin directly ignored the beast, circled around, and suddenly made a tut tut with emotion: "Little Aberle, I haven't bothered you for a few days, and your appetite has grown. Look, look. You can't eat cleanly. "
Palatine taught Aberly the way a parent teaches a child. Pointing at the bones on the ground. In this dense forest, and on the grass in front of me, there are two corpses that have been torn apart and become inhuman. The original earthy fragrance was covered by the pungent bloody smell and stench, and Paladin could even see rows of tooth marks left on the armor of some corpses. Apparently how hungry this guy is.
However, contrary to Paladin's expectations, when he raised his head, he was seeing a pile of weeds covering a cave in front of him. Apparently Abery's home these days. But the problem is not on the cave, but the wooden poles displayed in a row in front of the cave! And the wooden pole is uniformly inserted with a personal head! There were even some heads that were obviously fresh. Unlike the others, which had already begun to rot and stink, he was still fresh, and blood could be seen flowing from the severed head to the grass along the wooden pole.
Paladin took a few steps forward unexpectedly and looked at these heads. Looking back and forth, I suddenly found that although these heads maintained a painful expression of dying, their unified eyes and tongues were pulled out. Paladin didn't believe it was Abel's provision. Because as long as it is put on for a day, it will rot, and eating it will only give a bad stomach. It can be understood that this is Aberle's personal hobby! Or, his artwork.
