Chapter 409 (1/1)
”You! ”Hiss,” said the snakehead, waving at the little boy, threatening him to return to his former corner and move away from peg. Although these heretics don't know Peggy, they can feel the difference in this girl. This is a gift from the mother of the crypt. The transformation into a different kind not only enhances their physical fitness, but also makes the ladno more sensitive to the things in the shadow than ordinary human beings.
”Hiss, she, what should we do?” Another snakehead inquired that they were just a small group of believers who were responsible for providing a safe resting place for their fellow explorers. The emergence of Peggy was obviously beyond the scope of these pawns, and they had to ask for instructions from higher levels. ”I'll take her to see you, SIH, chief priest.” Radno, who found the witch, stood up, shook his scaly neck and looked at the girl with long dark green hair by the wall. ”It's not safe in the tunnel. The mice are here.” The monster who raised the question said with some concern that although it had a faith in the mother of the crypt, the rat man's madness made it necessary to consider the danger of celibacy.
Radno, who got up, looked at his companions and looked around the narrow shelter. He knew that in order to ensure the existence of this safe space, he could not let his companions and himself go on the road together. In that case ”You, hiss, come here!” The snake head man said, went to one side and pulled up the little boy who had just sat down. ”Bait.” It explained to the other ladno. All of us have seen the appearance of rat eating. Those hairy guys are not any kind of forward-looking predators, and they don't have the concept of catching them all in one net. For the blood eating rat people, the meat in front of them should be eaten first. A lively child, unable to pose a threat to the strong ladno, is enough to attract the attention of brutal beasts.
Other snakeheads agreed with their brother's idea. It was not far away from the area where the main sacrifice was located, and there were a large number of elite soldiers to protect him. There was no need to worry about the rat man. With this insurance, the plan of having one person to escort the little girl seems a lot more feasible.
”Hey, let go of me!” The little boy, unsure of his future as a bait, punched his scaly arm with his fist and didn't like to be caught in mid air. ”Shut up, boy!” The snake head man opened his big mouth and roared in front of the boy. The smell in his mouth made the child cover his mouth and nose subconsciously. ”I think you should break his leg first, hiss, so he can't run.” Said one of the monsters by the fire. ”No, he should have his tongue cut off. He's too noisy. He'll lead the mice over.” The other put forward a different point of view. But if I cut my tongue, would those mice lose interest in him
”Stop! The snake head man holding the little boy stopped the discussion among his companions. He looked at the child in his hand with his vertical pupil, and licked the latter's cheek with his forked tongue. This threat made everyone take a cold breath. ”I gagged his mouth and tied his hands so that he could walk and not be afraid that mice would not find out.” It was after this sentence that the fate of the poor child was decided. His hands were tied up with a large part of rough hemp rope. Such a restraint, let alone a child, would take a lot of effort for a thief who is proficient in escape. What was put in the boy's mouth was part of his linen jacket, and the bait didn't need clothes.
Ready to start, the snake headed man hesitated to come to page. ”You, with me, hiss, go to the chief priest.” The witch raised her head and noticed the boy on the other's shoulder. Peggy, who grew up in a chaotic environment, soon realized what this meant. However, she did not feel any sadness for the child who wanted to give her mouse meat. In fact, when she saw the other party in distress, the witch's tearful face actually showed a smile. It's always nice to see someone who has offended you in trouble, isn't it?
”Well, I'll go with you.” Peggy stood up and patted the dust on her clothes. She had seen these so-called chief priests around kuira, so she believed that whenever she saw that person, she would get the respect she deserved. And the other party will try his best to contact the damned curse seal for himself. Radno didn't expect Peggy to cooperate like this. He looked at the girl in amazement and decided that her identity was absolutely different.
Seen by other fanatics and prisoners, the convoy stepped out of the shelter. Snake heads don't need lighting in the dark, and witches' magic power is blocked, but their different body structure makes them better than human beings in night vision. As for the little boy, he just had to follow the rope in his hand. No one cared if he needed lighting. At the moment of stepping out of the stairs, the wind blowing from nowhere in the corridor was frightening. Rao radno had to be careful to observe the traces in the tunnel. And so on, when the great earth mother wakes up from her deep sleep, this place will become our only sanctuary.
”Hee hee, are you afraid?” Peggy, with his hands on his back, whispered in the boy's ear with interest. ”I tell you, whenever we meet a rat man, you will be left to feed them.” She likes to intimidate, like to see others panic in their own words, which makes her satisfied, make her sure that she is a powerful witch, not a little girl who will be kneaded arbitrarily. ”Fear as much as you can, and you'd better pray that the mice can't smell your fear. That way, you can live a little longer, but only for a while. ” Page knew that even if they did not encounter any danger along the way and found the priest, the boy's fate might have been killed on the spot. No heretic would walk through a crisis ridden underground with a useless child.The boy looked at Peggy, and he didn't understand why she said these things to himself. Was this lady scared out of her mind? Didn't she realize that she was in the same danger herself? What they should do is not to take advantage of the carelessness of this snake headed monster to find a chance to slip away? He doesn't understand. Children's understanding of the world is not complete, let alone have just experienced the collapse of the melting iron city, which adults can't believe. All the laws that once applied have lost their effectiveness.
When the two teams groped in the passage, none of them noticed that there was a tail behind them. Carus hid the flame in his eyes and watched the interaction between the Witch and the little boy with interest. He remembered that he seemed to be like this before, because the blood relationship was used by the so-called ”father” as a dog. He killed other lives cruelly just to vent his anger. How similar is it to Peggy who has been bullied by Ellie? But today's demons will not do that. He is a killer, but the killer also has his own way. He is no longer a pathetic son living in those eyes. And it's all about a compassionate dwarf and a stupid human being. Can you meet the man who liberates you from the abyss of blind hatred? I am looking forward to it.
