Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 44: Burning gaze

"What are the sun and moon...?" Waller shook his head in doubt, dispelling all the oppressive fantasies in his mind brought about by the heavy history told by Sol.

Sol didn't answer, standing in the circle of skeletons at the moment, don't know why, he suddenly thought of Precia again.

If she hadn't opened the door of books for herself, she wouldn't know how vast the world is and how possible life is. Maybe she would live a life ignorantly.

"The chat should be over, or we can find a place to have a drink and review these old and old stories. I don't want to spend a whole night here in vain without killing anything in the end."

In addition to constant dealings with the opposite sex, Shuggs has recently developed new hobbies. He believes that drinking is another compulsory course besides women on the road to becoming a man.

Lorton glanced around, then waved decisively.

"Then withdraw. Since there is no result, return to the auditorium first. I'll break it."

I rushed to the backyard because everyone intuitively believed that the backyard cemetery was the source of evil.

Although the intensity of the battle tonight is not worth mentioning, in the face of the continual recovery of the skeletons, as Shuggs said, they actually didn't kill anything but a few carrion corpses this most of the night.

There is no point in continuing to fight, and the situation in front of them far exceeds the scope of what they can solve.

Passing behind them to Lorton, the three of Thor stood in a row again and began to advance in the direction of the aisle as they had come.

Accidents are always sudden.

"Well!"

After advancing for a certain distance, Luoton suddenly heard a low muffled grunt behind him.

The three of Sol turned their heads at the same time, their faces full of disbelief.

Lorton was actually injured!

He was holding a long sword in one hand and covering his waist with the other, and he was slowly kneeling down weakly.

The first one to react was Waller. He rushed forward to stabilize Luoton, but he fell to the ground with his heavy body on his side.

Saul and Shuggs glanced at each other, shock and doubt flashed across each other's eyes.

In the face of an enemy with the strength of a skeleton, Yi Luoton's skill can be said to have no pressure.

However, the most shocking thing is not just the injury of Lorton.

After just a few breaths, Luoton's state at the moment looked a little wrong, his whole body languished, cold sweat broke out on his dejected face.

With Luoton's strong physique and damage tolerance, this is really abnormal, what happened?

"Hiss~!" The severe pain from the body caused Luoton to take a breath, as if he had no power to speak, and could only barely lift his finger to point in a certain direction.

The three of Thor turned their heads in surprise, but they saw nothing except the dense skeletons.

"With fresh... blood... a spell."

Clenching his teeth and finally bursting out these words, Luoton pulled open his clothes as if he wanted to take out something, but the next moment his hands slipped weakly, and his head fell to the side immediately, completely losing his voice.

"Lorton!" Waller hugged Luoton's neck and shook with an anxious cry.

Sol and Shuggs, who were distracting and guarding their surroundings, were at the same time tensed. They may not be a deadly friendship with Lotton, but after all, they still appreciate Lotton's heroic and straightforward character.

Thor rushed over and squatted down, and after a quick check, it was fortunate that Lotton had only fainted temporarily.

There are many ways to make a person faint in a short moment, such as extreme shock, severe pain, or bludgeoning, but Lorton doesn't seem to be in these situations.

There was a wound cut open along with the jacket on the waist of Lotton. It was a pity that the light was dim and the depth of the wound could not be clearly seen, but Thor noticed that the blood flowing out of the wound was faintly black, and there was also a vague smell.

Saul thought he might be poisoned.

Opening Lorton's placket, Thor quickly found a small scroll, a folded parchment paper, and a small bottle of light green potion wrapped in parchment from the hidden pocket inside the jacket.

"You hold him up and follow me."

Thor yelled to Shuggs and Waller, and began to turn around and move towards the dry well.

Lorton's current situation is very bad, and the wounds are also weird. The best measure is to immediately send to the new town to receive the best treatment, but this is obviously unrealistic and it is too late.

Thor keeps increasing the attack density in his hands to open up the way, and now is not the time to save energy.

I thought it would be a relaxing night, but unexpectedly the situation took a turn for the worse in this short instant.

What does Lorton's raised arm want to suggest? A powerful enemy? Or something else?

The whole thing suddenly became dangerous and mysterious again.

Soon everyone passed through the cemetery and came near the wreckage of the carriage, and Saul told Shuggs:

"Send him down to the bottom of the well, and feed him the healing potion and antidote first. The antidote is light purple, you know."

"What are you going to do?" Shuggs grabbed Thor, who turned and was about to leave.

"I must draw away the enemies around me, don't worry, I will be back soon."

After speaking, Thor turned back to the skeletons and greeted him again.

In tonight’s battle, Risol has determined that these skeletons have a certain weak perception and will instinctively approach the living, and when a living thing enters their attack range, they will immediately launch an attack.

Sol did not rush into the encirclement of the skeletons alone, but pressed against the outer edge of the skeleton army and fought back, attracting most of the enemies to the cemetery.

The space in the cemetery is wide, and if the battle goes well, he can find a chance to go back to the bottom of the well. Even if the battle worsened, he could escape into the tunnel through the gap under the iron fence at the edge of the cemetery, leaving Shuggs and the others with safety.

What really disturbed Saul at the moment was that there seemed to be some special enemy in these skeletons, and it was not known whether he was wise.

Judging from Lorton's poisoning, Thor first thought of snake enemies.

After all, it would not be difficult for a venomous snake that is good at hiding in the skull group to attack Luoton, but Thor immediately denied this conjecture, because he remembered that the wound on Luoton's waist was obviously a laceration from a weapon.

No matter what the enemy is, he must be found out, otherwise everyone can't talk about safety.

The dense skeletons are still pushing each other up, and the smell of death and decay in the air seems to be more intense.

No matter who they were before they were alive, they look the same at the moment, with a few strands of withered hair remaining on their skulls, and a few teeth remaining in their slightly decent mouths.

The more uniform expressions are their expressions. The flesh-lost facial bones are full of cracks, the eye sockets are dark, the inverted triangle nose hole, and the upper and lower jaws sometimes occluded along the corners of the mouth and grinning greatly, frozen in a frame that will never again The changed weird smile.

Suddenly, Saul froze for a moment with a horrified expression, and his turning neck suddenly bounced back in a certain direction.

In the sight of his sudden stop, a special skeleton was mixed in the group of skeletons.

It is slightly taller than other skeletons, with dead branch-like hands behind one side and dragging a large two-handed sword, and an ancient rusty half-hatched helmet buckled on the cracked head, and the lower part of the eyebrow can cover the nose. The kind that can cover the ears on both sides.

From the appearance, this skeleton warrior is not so special. The reason why Thor noticed it is because two small clusters of bright green flames are beating in its two dark hollow eye sockets. The same as breathing.

It was these two little flames that made the tall skeleton seem to have expressions, and the whole body came back to life, exuding an extremely dangerous atmosphere.

The only relief is that its actions are no different from other ordinary skeletons. They are neither aggressive nor hidden, and they don't look like they have wisdom.

Although I am not entirely sure that it was the culprit that caused Lotton's injury, Saul felt that it was very likely.
