Chapter 989: Maze Forest
"Hácala!"
Ma Yun recited a spell, waved a handful of fine sand mixed with flower petals, and cast the third-level spell "Deep Sleep" on an injured werewolf.
The werewolf's mental will could not resist the invasion of magic power, so he yawned loudly, fell straight to the ground and fell asleep, making a dull snoring sound.
Everyone worked together to eliminate twelve werewolves, leaving only two alive.
After the battle, Jiang Feng helped Dimitri treat him. Under the soothing of the sacred energy, the wounds on the lion's body quickly stopped bleeding and healed.
For some unknown reason, the lycanthropy virus carried by werewolves is only effective against humanoids and giants, but cannot infect other species. At least Dimitri does not have to worry about going crazy on a full moon night.
Although the wounds on his body had healed, the lion was still angry and took the initiative to torture the prisoners and extract confessions.
Dimitri walked up to the sleeping werewolf, raised his front paws, and slapped the werewolf on the face, turning him into a pig's head in the blink of an eye.
The werewolf, who had been beaten severely in his sleep, woke up with a cry, his eyes filled with fear.
"Little wolfdog, if you don't want to have your throat bitten off, just tell me what bad things you and your accomplices have done?!"
Under the lion's questioning, the werewolf trembled and told the truth.
Including him, the thirteen members of this group of werewolves were originally humans. Because they were infected with lycanthropy, they were forced to flee their hometown and were gathered together by the leader to form a band of thieves.
They usually act like humans, pretending to be hunters making a living in the forest. They often take their prey to nearby villages to exchange for daily necessities such as candles, salt, and ropes. They also have a few drinks in the village tavern, and pay attention to whether there are any Unfamiliar face.
If you find a foreign traveler in the tavern, take the initiative to strike up a conversation and offer to be a guide. For a small fee, you can lead the traveler safely through the maze-like forest.
If travelers are wary and refuse to hire them, that's okay.
The werewolves were completely sure that these foreign fools would never be able to cross the dense forest. After wandering in the forest for a few days and suffering enough, they would eventually return to the village to seek help from them.
At that time, the werewolves pretended to be well-intentioned, led the travelers into the woods, and cooperated with their companions to ambush the travelers. After killing people, they took away the property, even the corpses, and ate all the bones and skins. Clean, leaving no evidence of a crime.
"Why do you dare to conclude that outside travelers will never be able to get out of this forest?" Gao Fei interjected.
"Because... this forest is enchanted. No matter which direction you go, you will eventually return to the starting point, which is a waste of effort." The werewolf replied in a low voice, "That's why it is called the 'Maze Forest'."
Gao Fei looked at Ma Yun dubiously.
Ma Yun nodded slightly and said to him through the astrolabe: "There are indeed strong magic fluctuations deep in the jungle. It is probably a barrier that has been set up to prevent outsiders from breaking in."
"So you can take us through this maze forest?" Jiang Feng stared at the werewolf.
"Well..." The werewolf's eyes rolled wildly, "I can try..."
"You're lying!" The lion Dimitri roared, scaring the werewolf to the point where he almost wet his pants.
"Lion, Master Lion, you don't dare to lie..."
"Bullshit! You want to fool us, no way! You are 100% lying! Miss Mage, how about you let me twist off this liar's head?"
"Don't worry, my friend." Ma Yun comforted the impatient lion, "We can take this guy back to the camp and let Nick interrogate him. No one can lie in front of the judge."
Upon hearing the words "Judge", the werewolf's expression immediately changed, and he could not hide his frustration.
It seems that this guy is quite knowledgeable and knows what "arbiter" means.
"Okay, okay, kind gentlemen and ladies, let me tell the truth... In fact, my partner and I are all lying. We are simply not capable of leading travelers through the maze forest. In fact, even we ourselves are not capable of leading travelers through the maze forest." Don’t dare go into the depths of the forest, otherwise you will definitely get lost.”
"Hmph! I knew it would be like this!" The lion proudly puffed up his chest, "I can see through this little trick at a glance!"
"You have definitely accumulated a lot of money over the years by killing people and selling goods. Tell me honestly, where did you hide all these ill-gotten gains?" Jiang Nuxia asked the werewolf with a half-smile.
"Our treasures..." The werewolf turned to look at the cave in the bushes, "They are all hidden in that cave, but only by chanting the correct spell can the big stone blocking the cave be opened."
"What a bullshit spell, no need at all! Look at me!"
The lion confidently rushed towards the cave and tried to use its brute strength to move the stone blocking the door. However, it couldn't move even with all its strength, so it had to give up.
"Only our boss knows the spell to open the cave." Before the lion could force a confession, the werewolf took the initiative to confess.
"Your boss is the big guy, right?"
Ma Yun turned to look at the dying beast-turned-ogre trampled by the sand demon statue, with suspicion in her eyes.
"This guy doesn't look like he can cast spells."
"That ogre is just a thug next to the boss. Of course he doesn't know the spell." The werewolf's testimony confirmed Ma Yun's guess.
This ogre got lost in the maze forest and wandered around for several days without being able to find an exit. He fainted from hunger and fell into the forest, where he happened to be met by a group of werewolf bandits.
The leader of the werewolves was a low-level warlock. When he saw the starving ogre, he suddenly had an idea and bit him twice to see if the ogre could be infected with the beast virus.
This impromptu experiment yielded satisfactory results. The ogre was actually infected with the virus and mutated into a beast ogre.
The werewolf leader subdued this powerful monster, and the strength of the thieves group was greatly enhanced.
However, the beast ogre was stupid and only thought about eating all day. He could not do anything else except acting as a thug.
"I thought the beast ogre was the leader of the werewolf gang, so I left him alive..."
Ma Yun waved his hand in disappointment and ordered the sand golem to strangle the beast ogre, which had lost its value.
As for the real leader of the werewolf gang, he had long been killed by Toto's "fireball technique". The charred corpse transformed back into human form, looking like a thin, ugly and wretched man. Based on this appearance, who could tell that he was the leader of the gang?
"Although our boss is not good at fighting, he is smart. The idea of pretending to be a guide to lure and kill travelers was figured out by him..." the werewolf captive said humbly.
