Mage Joan

Chapter 447: Primal fear

"There is not much space in the hinterland of the valley. If the enemy is hiding here, it should be easy to find their tracks from our perspective, but so far there is no trace of wind and grass, which is a bit strange." Edward frowned. .

"If the herdsman and the Jack brothers are already here, guess where they are most likely to hide?" Thomas asked.

"Most of them are hiding in the trees." Martin looked at the lush canopy. "That ficus tree has leafy branches. Let alone a few people on the branches, it's okay to build a wooden house."

"A place that looks easy to conceal on the surface is more likely to arouse the suspicion of the opponent. If I am a "herderman", it will not be hidden in the tree. The top of the cliff opposite the tree is more open, and it is suitable for monitoring the valley from the top. "

Achi stroked the mouse whisker and made a speculation from the professional perspective of a senior thief.

Joan didn't participate in the conversation. He put his hands in his jacket pockets and clenched the "magic alarm" made by the worm's tentacles, looking forward to something happening.

Looking at the time it was noon, everyone had no interest in chatting, as if infected, and yawned one after another.

Just as he was drowsy, Joan suddenly stood up, his hot eyes cast out of the window.

"What's wrong, Joan?" Rebecca first noticed that he behaved abnormally.

Joan didn't make a sound, and pulled out the alarm from her pocket to show her—the tentacles made of countless fine ringed articulations were buzzing and trembling!

"Are the'Shepherds' coming?" Rebecca stared out the window with wide eyes, but could not even see a figure.

"They're here." Joan moved the tentacles from side to side, detecting the location of the unexpected guest based on the angle of deflection of the tentacles. "All three are invisible."

"Is the'Shepherd Man' a druid?" Little Meow murmured in surprise. "Druid will be invisible?"

"He won't, but Big Jack is likely to be, that's enough!" Joan turned to open his palm to Thomas, "Anti-hidden potion!"

"Well, are two bottles enough? I don't have enough in my storage bag!" Thomas took a bottle of "see through invisibility" potions in each of his hands.

"The more the better, it's best to send one bottle to each person." Edward snatched a bottle of potion.

"No problem!" Thomas handed the rest of the potion to Joan, opened the storage bag and pulled out a pile of potions. "I have 2 or 3 ring of arcane potions, I have everything here, I need to take it here, Don’t be polite!"

"It's worthy of being Leiden Harbour's number one master, and the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem in the eyes of our major Thomas."

Xiao Miao laughed and laughed, not slow in his hand. He grabbed a bottle of anti-hidden potion, pulled out the stopper and pour it into his stomach.

Joan drank the potion, wiped the corner of his mouth, and turned to look out the window.

Facts have shown that it is more reliable to judge Achi. Three fuzzy figures stood side by side at the top of the cliff opposite the big banyan tree. Two of them were the Jack brothers. Although the man standing in the center was the first sight, Joan had been several times. Heard the legend about him.

"Shepherd" Idar was thin and well-proportioned with muscles. The only garment he wore was a small animal skin pocket hanging on his neck.

Naked skin seems to be coated with beeswax, no hair from head to toe, bare head glows with yellowish waxy luster in the sun, tall eagle nose and narrow eyes make Joan rise An indescribable sense of terror—like a ridiculous scene in a nightmare, which has become a living human form.

Joan has been in contact with many strange creatures since childhood, from the simple "grey bag" on the outside to the beautiful "snake dragon girl" on the outside, to the ugly and evil goblins and trolls whose appearance is as ugly and evil as the heart. , Ogres and jackals have all made him feel horrified, but the monsters have seen more, and gradually it is not strange.

Only the "herder man" aroused an almost physiological discomfort in his heart.

This discomfort is a complex emotion composed of strong disgust and extreme fear, which makes him feel inexplicable.

Speaking of its strength, the "Shepherd" may not be stronger than the Alpha Queen of the Jackal, and it is even worse than the Lord of the Fire Giant, Brest, why is he the most terrible?

To say that looks scary, in fact, the shepherd’s body and facial features are not ugly. If you put on clothes, tattoo your eyebrows, accumulate a beard, put on a wig, and put it in the pile of people, it will not be dazzling at all, but it fades. External modification becomes very scary.

Joanne is not the kind of person who is conservative enough to be naked.

The Jack brothers are also naked, and they are far more ugly than Idar, but the mental impact on him is far less than Idar.

What exactly is going on?

Jo An settled in his mind, forced his discomfort to observe Idal carefully, and gradually tasted the subtlety of why this person made him afraid.

"Shepherd" Idar at first glance looks like an ordinary person everywhere in daily life, but he is naked and has no hair, which reflects the characteristics of violating daily life and brings a strong sense of violation.

It's like a toy tiger and a doll in front of people. Most people think that dolls are more scary than toy tigers.

People don’t look at toy tigers from the perspective of real tigers, but can’t help looking at dolls from the perspective of “living people”—it does look like living people, but it’s not exactly the same. This is both familiar and The strange subtle differences are the source of terror.

In a well-ordered and stable society, only lunatics would walk naked in broad daylight like Idar, and be calm and unashamed.

However, Joan knew very well that "Shepherd" was not a madman, and his mental level even exceeded that of ordinary people, which brought a stronger sense of violation.

This man is not crazy or stupid, why should he?

Once this question arises, it is natural to get such an answer:

He deliberately did so, using this almost mad way to show his faith, as if he was using his body and behavior to mock the well-dressed social public, so as to show that only he is a normal person, put on his clothes People are not normal.

Realizing this, Joan naturally developed anger, fear and disgust.

Because the existence of a person like Idar not only threatens Joan himself, but also challenges the social order and way of life of the civilized world. It is a total denial of the evolutionary course of human society from a wild to a civilization over tens of thousands of years. This is where the "herdman" Idar scared him the most!
