Werewolf hunting rules

Clayton was only grateful that his reaction was quick enough and he would not be surrounded by the three evil creatures.

When he ran a certain distance and was out of sight of the evil creature, although the footsteps behind him were still chasing him, they were no longer as fast as before.

Clayton has been a trainer of four-legged animals for a long time in the past, and now he has become one of them. His rich experience allows him to guess their psychology just by listening to their footsteps.

Hesitation and curiosity, this is the message conveyed in the footsteps of evil things.

They seem to have lost their memories of their lives and are quite unfamiliar with the environment of this castle, which is why this situation occurs.

At this speed, it is impossible for them to catch up with the werewolf, but they cut off the werewolf's original retreat. Now he can only choose to leave the castle, like those plate armor warriors. However, the werewolf has another advantage over them, that is, he and the dwarves are in the same group, which is equivalent to mastering the living map, and he does not have to worry about those people returning to the surface earlier than him.

Clayton looked at the bodies piled up in the corridor. The plate-armored warriors he had previously controlled with suffocation also disappeared from the ground, which meant that the enemy's strength had increased again.

He also needed more helpers to fight against the enemy. The dwarves who had fought alongside him were still lying in the gap on the west side of the corridor, unable to wake up due to the influence of the poisonous gas. He sped up and ran there, but there was a sound coming from under his feet. A weak voice:

"Take me, please."

Pileg, whose abdomen was pierced, reached out to the murderer.

Clayton frowned, this might be a trap.

"They didn't take you away?"

This is the only way to leave the castle, and there is no way those plate-armored warriors can't detect him.

Pileg clutched the injury in his abdomen and shook his head.

The werewolf hesitated for a few seconds, stretched out his hand to hold him under his arm, grabbed three more dwarves, and rushed out of the castle in one breath.

Osmar can't be counted on, but Pleg may be a substitute. Although he is a wizard, Clayton has never found that he has the ability to threaten him.

Clayton knew that he might not be a good judge of the wizard's abilities, but he believed in Edwards. Since Edwards dared to keep Pileg close to him after giving him back his sanity, then Pileg was probably not aggressive at all.

He led these guys out of the breach in the wall on the west side of the corridor, and chose a different path from those plate-armored warriors through his sense of smell.

After the sound of the evil thing disappeared, he continued to run.

There was no light at all in the tunnel, and the werewolf could only judge the environment through its smell, but he did not feel depressed. The darkness was also a protective color for the werewolf.

After making sure that the evil creatures couldn't hear his voice, he continued to ask Pleg: "Why did they leave you behind?"

Pileg asked dully: "Do you respect me?"

This question was so baffling that Clayton began to wonder whether "answering the question" itself was a condition for witchcraft to activate.

Pileg didn't wait for the answer, but he didn't care and asked again: "You think I have no ability to hurt you because you can knock me down with one punch, right?"

The werewolf's pace slowed.

This may be a threat, Clayton thought, and began to plan how to deal with Peleg.

"Don't be nervous, I mean, they think so too." Pileg felt the muscles under the werewolf's hair tightening rapidly, and hurriedly said with a wry smile: "Soldiers look down on people with fragile bodies. This is a common thing. ,I'm used to it."

The wizard revealed his embarrassment: "I have learned some basic military theories, so I can serve as a commander, but I have never been involved in the battlefield. Those soldiers did not like me because of this, and thought that I was not the same as them. They I usually only obey Edwards’ orders, but seeing me defeated and Edwards not issuing new orders, those wandering knights were no longer willing to take me with them.”

The bitterness in his voice was by no means false, and Pleg's experience as a waiter by Edwards before that made it ring true.

"Are you a noble?" Clayton asked thoughtfully.

Hundreds of years ago, not everyone could learn military skills.

Pileg immediately announced a long name that was so obscure and difficult to pronounce that Clayton thought he might not be able to remember it after hearing it three times.

Just hearing his full name made Clayton a little irritable, but the wizard didn't realize it. In order to convince Clayton that he was trustworthy, he kept talking about his strengths.

Simple animal communication - he relies on this to ride a horse, but the level is not even as good as Donna's.

Telekinesis - about the weight of a carrot.

Crafting an amulet that can warn of danger requires oak wood, apple cores, and weasel hair (none of which are nearby).

Peleg achieved his goal. The more he spoke, the more Clayton trusted him. After all, such incompetent wizards were rare, and all his occult attainments combined were not as useful as his military level.

However, his appearance made Clayton think more highly of his niece. The werewolf previously thought that she had not been studying for a long time and was the worst type of wizard.

For some reason, Pileg's tone was more strangely flattering than when they first met, which made Clayton feel weird. He didn't want Pileg to act independently anymore, so he went straight to the point. Ask those who are about to turn into evil creatures.

He was impressed by their resistance to inner fire, and their sanity was completely preserved compared to others.

Pileg answered this question, but the answer was quite different from Clayton's assumption.

The reason Edwards retained their sanity was not one of favoritism but coercion.

Those alienated people entered Fairyland much earlier than Pileg, possibly even earlier than Edwards, and they were also Edwards' initial reliance on seizing this country.

These people once belonged to a heretical sect, called the Order of Angels. They worshiped evil things crazily and believed that the relationship between humans and evil things was equivalent to the relationship between chrysalis and adults. Therefore, they were obsessed with pursuing the most erotic moods and also liked Keep company with the devil.

It is said that the reason why they enter the fairyland is to use the influence of the fairyland to transform.

Edwards' method of controlling them is to block the corrupting influence of Wonderland on them, keeping them in the final stage and unable to achieve their goals.

Pileg speculated that the reason why Clara's inner fire did not destroy them was because their mental appearance was still covered by the magical protective layer set by Edwards. When the protective layer was burned away, their spirits were not damaged and faced the same challenge. The transformation that he had dreamed of happened, and he became what Clayton had seen before.

Clayton was amazed by this incident. He never expected that the protective magic he longed for would become a means to coerce others into submission.

The dwarf's tunnel was dark and narrow, and he didn't know where the end was. When he walked in it, he naturally wanted to talk to people.

So he didn't pause at all, but continued to ask Peleg about Pan.

Pileg was silent for a moment, not as neatly as he was talking about the Order of Angels.

Pan is an intelligent creature born purely from nature. It often appears in the forest and has no social nature. But it would be inappropriate to call it an animal. Because they are too powerful, smart enough to master human language, and have no curse on them, the church does not recognize them as natural creatures and simply classifies them as a kind of strange god in heretical worship.

From a natural standpoint, it is more closely associated with druids, but demon worshipers also often worship Pan.

Pan sometimes attacks lone women and takes them back to his lair to breed his own offspring. If there are other female beasts around, they will not let them go. Fetuses with deformed human bodies were probably visited by Pan Lai.

It is said that it was precisely because of this habit that the lewd demon Lord Ainat chose Pan as his mortal body. The Witches and Demons Guild adopted this image as a symbol, and Pans were also proud of it.

Edwards, who also admired Ainat, may have obtained the ritual to summon them through this relationship.

However, Pileg's understanding of Pan ended here. This was the first time Edwards summoned Pan in front of him. Because the ceremony was too expensive, even if he dedicated the entire country, he could only summon Pan three times. Even this It was used once because Edwards was angry and irrational.

Pileg explained in the darkness: "The red-headed man misled Edwards when he made a wish. He thought that his wrong wish would lead to a change of ownership of this country, which extended to the conclusion that the dwarves rebelled collectively. And Holland Homer had caused him a lot of trouble before, leaving him with no extra patience to deal with the dwarves, so he planned to get rid of them all at once. "

"Then Osmar really did a good thing!" Clayton praised.

Even the current situation is more or less caused by Osmar, but he can make Edwards unhappy, which is a credit.

Pileg echoed him enthusiastically.

This always flattering attitude finally made Clayton relax his vigilance. He put everyone down and helped Pileg adjust his broken spine so that he could walk on his own.

At the same time, the dwarves he brought out also began to groan, and they were finally free from the influence of the poisonous gas.

"I thought about my last hangover, which seemed like hundreds of years ago."

"Me too."

"Mad, where are you? Why can't I see anything?"

Complaints arose, but Clayton calmed them down and explained the situation.

The dwarves were unfazed by the danger Clayton faced.

"We have walked this road thousands of times. We can walk it with our eyes closed. You should go back and bring some people out so that we can deal with Pan."

Clayton thought about it and decided that this was not feasible.

The upper bodies of those evil creatures are covered with thick horns or scales. As long as they lie down in a narrow tunnel, their weak points are all in places that Clayton cannot attack. A werewolf fighting them in this environment is bound to lose.

Turning back now might hit them, so it's time to continue with the plan to return to the surface.

"By the way." Pileg said, "Can I ask you how you did it?"

Clayton didn't understand what he meant:

"What?"

"I saw your heroic performance in riding the horse before. Edwards used the sediment of people's hearts to unleash witchcraft on your mount, but it did not lose control. I want to know how this was done." He looked at it expectantly. Yellow eyes shining in the darkness, waiting for an answer.

Clayton scratched his nails on the rock wall. He heard the wizard's true feelings and finally believed that Pileg was a horse lover and what he said before was not false.

But it would not be in his interest to tell the answer now.

"This way, you finish my work for me, and I'll tell you how I did it," he told Peleg.
