Chapter 6 Capture
Gloria felt extremely hungry. At the same time, she doubted whether she was still capable of feeling hungry. Pain, indescribable pain tortured her day and night, it felt like every bone in her body, every
Every muscle was being twisted and pulled hard. Under this painful torture, Gloria was completely unable to control herself. She clearly realized that she was gradually turning into a beast under the oppression of pain, but she
There was no choice. Gloria huddled in the cave entrance, surrounded by animal bones and frozen body fluids. Three days, if someone said before that three days can turn a beautiful and healthy woman into a monster, Gloria
Ya would only think of it as a horror story, but now, the story happened to her.
She has forgotten many things, but fortunately she still remembers her name, Gloria von Salon, the third daughter of Earl Salon and the youngest child. As a descendant of a lord, Gloria
My life had been uneventful until ten days ago. The word plague has always been associated with the Earl of Saron in the north. The cold and long winter can allow most infectious diseases to dissipate among the ice and snow. However,
It still exploded, initially to the hunters and farmers on the edge of the territory. The blocked traffic in the Middle Ages made it difficult for Count Saron to understand the trends in his territory at the first time. So when the first batch of infected people appeared in Valley City, the count's mansion
By that time, the entire earldom was actually already seriously ill. Those infected would initially have fever, confusion, and excruciating pain. Black spots would appear on their bodies, and the spots would turn into black tumors, which would burst and ooze out.
Brown-green stench of pus. And if that's all, or if this plague just ends up killing people, then a lady like Gloria living in the castle won't be too dangerous. However, just like the mat in the territory
What scholars say is that in many cases, death is not the worst outcome.
Gloria remembered that no matter how much pain she suffered, she would never forget those eyes, those narrow, dark green eyes shining in the dark, one pair in the dark, under the weak light of the torch.
This makes people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts. Perhaps this is why the number one warrior in the earldom and the chief knight of the lord could only let Gloria escape alone. Gloria still doesn’t know what happened.
What do eyes belong to? But she knows that no matter what those things are, she is slowly becoming those things.
"Haha...haha..." Driven by instinct, I opened my eyes, and my eyes seemed to be covered with a green film. Everything became weird and blurred under the distortion of this film. And correspondingly,
, Gloria's sense of smell became extremely sharp, and she even had the illusion that even if she closed her eyes and relied only on her ears and nose, she would not hit anything. The smell of blood, the smell of rot, the smell of snow,
The smell, as well as the sour smell coming from herself, made Gloria would rather lose her sense of smell forever.
Hungry, her most primitive instinct drove her to get up from the hole where she was hiding. She scratched the rocks with her sharp nails and made a creepy sound. She looked for anything to eat, anything that still had body heat, anything.
………………
The sun was about to go down, and Cheese stood in the snow, looking at the sun that was about to fall into the mountains. The cold wind didn't seem to want to rest with the sun, but intensified. At night in Longji Mountain, no one wanted to wake up at night.
Then he left the town, and the farmers drove their animals into the shed early, and returned to the warm room. In the past three days, Cheese actually didn't think much about the theft of livestock. For him,
The criticism from the people in the town and the complaints from the landlady were far less important than the test given to him by the teacher. However, now that it was discovered that there was a close connection between the two, the mage had to deal with this matter seriously.
After an afternoon of visits, Cheese roughly determined the location of the lost livestock, and combined with the guesses in his mind, he felt that what he was facing should be some kind of beast, at least in terms of its behavior. Since it was a beast,
There must be a nest, and based on the size of the lost animal, the mage can roughly guess the range of activities of this hungry creature. Now, all he has to do is wait patiently, and wait for the beast to walk out driven by hunger.
In his own lair, the cold wind and ice and snow cannot block the mage's sight. If he is willing, he can even sense the position of the hibernating snake under the snow. Therefore, Cheese believes that he will never miss the opportunity to capture.
coming!
Opening his closed eyes, Cheese silently took off his gloves. Although the thick leather can bring good warmth, it also reduces the mage's casting speed. Facing this type of enemy, Cheese needs to make full use of every opportunity.
In a moment, he took out a sheepskin kettle from his arms with one hand, made a few random gestures with the other hand, and then placed it on the kettle. The temperature of the kettle began to rise. After a moment, the cheese released the spell, and he opened the
He opened the kettle lid and poured a kettle of hot sheep's blood onto the snow in front of him. The warm blood quickly lost its temperature, but its smell had already dispersed with the wind.
"Come on, good dog, come on."
Soon, the person Cheese was waiting for arrived for his appointment. What kind of monster it was, Cheese had never seen it in any book in the library, and had never heard it from anyone.
The monster that appeared in the ice and snow looked like a hybrid between a human and a mouse, but this mixture seemed rough and random. Cheese could guarantee that even the biological experiments produced by the evil mage would look better than this thing.
It looks much more pleasing to the eye. The mottled hair, confused eyes, and the snout with dark red blood stains.
Obviously, this monster also discovered that the delicious prey it imagined was just a mage's cover, but for it, cheese itself may also be good meat. However, perhaps it is the instinct of the beast or the remaining humanity that prevents it from doing so.
He rushed over directly, but looked at the cheese from a certain distance and hesitated, as if he was waiting.
But the mage didn't give it any chance. Cheese's eyes were flashing with the brilliance of magic, and his spell casting was so fast that the spell was completed before the monster even reacted to his actions. The monster stood at the feet of the wizard.
The ice and snow seemed to come alive instantly and turned into a snake, coiling up the monster's feet. No matter how hard the monster struggled, the snake made of ice and snow clung to it tightly. Even if it was occasionally shaken off or knocked off a little bit
, there is still more snow to become part of this snow snake.
"solidification."
With the words in Cheese's mouth, the soft snow instantly turned into hard ice, and the monster's struggle ended. It wasn't that it didn't want to continue struggling, but that the solid ice had sealed its body, making it unable to move. Watch.
With the monster restrained in front of him, Cheese realized that his palms were unknowingly covered in sweat.
