Night Raven Master

Chapter 38 Death
After dinner, the crowd sat around the fire, and Cullens helped Art's wound—although it was only a simple change of bandages.

To Arthur's surprise, Cullens, who seemed glib and unserious, was a good hand at dealing with wounds.

"Okay!" Cullens clapped his hands after stuffing a roll of bandages back into his waist pocket.

"Thank you very much." Arthur expressed his gratitude.

Watching Karens finish bandaging Yate, Lourdes nodded and said, "Take care of this, and then assign night watch."

Although it is said that wild beasts will basically not approach such a large-scale team, they cannot relax their vigilance because of this. In order to prevent accidents, night watchmen are still deployed.

Lourdes glanced over everyone's faces: "Yesterday, Lawrence and Karens were on patrol. Baft, Mars, Corius, and Dorgart also patrolled. The rest, who are they? Willing to take charge of the patrol today?"

They set off from the border of Serra County three days ago, and they can reach Dilud County tomorrow, as long as they patrol for another day and night.

Each mercenary team will send two people to watch the night, basically just need to walk around the team.

He also didn't designate anyone to join the patrol team, whoever wanted to come, and he would patrol as a night watchman today.

Everyone looked at each other, Maiya and Hughes blinked, and turned their heads in unison. Andus thought about it, and was about to speak, but at this moment, he heard Art's voice: "I bring it on."

Because of the injuries on his body, he couldn't lie down and rest, and could only use meditation instead of sleep. The patrolling was done by himself, and it didn't affect anything anyway.

"You are injured, you should rest." Andus glanced at him and shook his head, "It's fine for me and the captain to come, and you will come next time."

Lourdes also nodded, he had a good feeling for Art: "Just wait until next time."

Yate didn't insist and went to rest. The two looked at each other and walked out of the camp, preparing to watch the night.

As time passed, the weather gradually cooled down, and Art, who used meditation instead of sleep, suddenly woke up from the peaceful feeling of meditation.

The sudden stabbing pain caused him to open his eyes involuntarily, and looked at the culprit—Glora the Crow.

"What's the matter?" Under the light of the campfire that only Mars was left, Art looked at his thigh with some doubts, lying on the hat on his thigh to rest. Pulling the hem of his clothes, those black eyes that reflected a little light stared straight at him.

"Yeah——"

A low and hoarse crow sounded, and Art could feel a sense of impatience in it.

At this time, a voice sounded from his right side:

"Did you feel it too!?"

Art turned his head away, and with the slight light of Mars and the moonlight leaking from the clouds, he could barely make out who the broad silhouette standing not far away was.

"Mars? What's the matter?"

"I don't know too well." Mars's voice was dignified, "Little Wei Lun suddenly bit my ear and woke me up. I'll wake up the others first and light the fire."

"Get up! Get up! Cullens! Lawrence! Baft"

Yate stood up, listened to the low shouts from behind, looked around, looked in the direction of other camps, and found that the fires of many camps gradually lit up.

Something must have happened.

Headed by the gathering place of the mercenaries, the fires of many camps lit up one after another. At this time, Art heard another shout:
"Wolf! There are wolves!"

ooh-

woo woo woo——

The howling of wolves, one after another, rang out around the camp.

"Lat!"

Hearing his name, Art turned his head quickly, and saw Lourdes and Andus running quickly.

"What happened? Wolves!?" He hurriedly asked, and the others had already woken up, knowing what was going on, they hurried over.

Lourdes and Andus had very ugly expressions, and they kept holding the weapons in their hands, facing the direction outside the camp.

"Wolf pack, a lot of wolves!" Lourdes said in a deep voice, "Everyone is on alert and ready to fight."

Hearing Lourdes' words, everyone immediately drew out their weapons, arranged their formation, and prepared to fight.

Because of the movement of the mercenaries and the howling of wolves, some people in the caravan woke up, and even the mercenaries were a little flustered, and these ordinary people were even less calm, and gradually became chaotic.

At this time, Art also saw the wolves clearly.
Densely packed, dozens, no, hundreds of red wolves appeared in front of everyone, just in front of their eyes, in other directions, there was also a sea of ​​red.

thousands?Tens of thousands?
The huge number made everyone in the Lourdes mercenary group widen their eyes, and Yate could even hear the hissing around him.

The same is true for him, these wolves are not ordinary beasts, but monsters.

And the lava-like black-red fur and the orange-red light gap on the fur seem to come from the abyss.

The demon-like wolves made Art immediately think of what he was talking about last night-the demon warlock.

The mercenaries might be able to deal with hundreds of beasts, but tens of thousands of demon wolves?

The scorching red sea of ​​wolves that had surrounded the entire camp, and the howling of wolves full of madness, made everyone's hearts tainted with despair.

"Why are there so many?" Andus's voice trembled, and he, who had always been calm, couldn't help it now.

"Don't be timid!" Lourdes roared. "If you try your best, you still have a chance to survive. If you want to escape, you will die!"

Maiya's face was extremely pale, and her voice was a little hoarse and hopeless: "...you will die if you try your best, there is no way you can survive."

Art clenched his fists and made no sound.

Are you going to die?

"No, no," Art said in a hoarse voice, "They haven't launched an attack yet, maybe there is still a chance."

In the hearts of everyone filled with despair, a glimmer of hope emerged.

Is there really hope?

However, at this moment, the wolf pack launched an attack.

The pack of wolves rushed towards them like a scorching red ocean.

"what!!!"

In the outermost mercenary group, a pale man let out a scream in front of the terrifying wolves.

The swordsmanship that he was so proud of could not be used calmly. He waved his long sword in a panic, trying to block the wolves. Some of the other mercenaries around him raised their weapons, and some ran away desperately.

However, nothing works.

In an instant, they were overwhelmed by the scorching red and crazy pack of wolves. There was no room for resistance at all, and the demonic wolves that rushed directly tore them into pieces of flesh and blood.

Behind the pack of wolves, a humanoid creature with a wolf's head and two horns grew silently watching all this.

The rest of his body was distorted and chaotic like a composite of humans, demons, and wolves. His bright red eyes were filled with madness and hatred, and the flashes of clarity that flashed from time to time were finally overwhelmed by chaos.

"All to die, all to die."

The hoarse voice did not stir up any storms amidst the screams of the people and the crazy roar of the magic wolf.

He turned around slowly and looked in the direction of Diroud Town: "I'm back, Duff, Simmons, I'm back for revenge."

He looked at his palm, because he desperately exchanged for the power of the abyss, he no longer had the slightest human form.

"I, An Suxi, came back for revenge." He roared, with an indelible hatred in his voice, "I did nothing wrong! I did nothing wrong! I didn't kill anyone! I even hid the castle !Why!?"

The words that have been said tens of thousands of times sounded again.

The screams behind him gradually disappeared.

All that's left is howling wolves.

The scorching red demonic wolves gathered behind him again, but after the killing, the eyes of these demonic wolves were filled with the madness of killing, and they looked at their master An Suxi with strong eyes. killing intent.

"The target is there." An Suxi turned a blind eye to the strong killing intent, raised her arm, and pointed to Dilude Town in the distance.

A series of mental waves emanated from his body, guiding them.

Most of the demon wolves screamed and roared, and rushed towards the direction of Dilude Town. The distance of more than ten kilometers was nothing to these crazy monsters. They had plenty of stamina.

An Suxi just watched the scorching red tide rushing towards the town of Dilude quietly, and took steps to move forward with the tide.

Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually brightened.

What remained in place was only a piece of blood red.

The team of more than a hundred people that was originally located here has been fragmented, and the incomplete bones with flesh and blood are scattered all over the place. It is difficult to piece together even a complete corpse.

The same is true at the camp of the Lourdes Mercenary Group.

only.
Suddenly, a shadow moved under the pile of corpses mixed with demon wolves and humans, and the corpses pressing on him disappeared one by one out of thin air, revealing a deep pit. crawled out.

It was Art.

His body was trembling with blood all over his body.

"Dead. All dead." Art's voice was a little hoarse. He turned his head, looked at the corpses, and then looked at the [Mutilated Human Corpse] that he put in the inventory.

And [Bird Carcasses]

A crow with missing wings.

At the last moment, he pulled out a deep hole in the ground, and the corpses of the demon wolf and the people who should have been teammates pressed on top of him, allowing him to escape from the wolves.

But only he survived.

"Hahaha" Yate, who lost his strength, lay down on the ground, looked at the sky, and laughed silently.

Unlucky?Lucky?
"Yeah——"

Not long after, the sound of birds chirping came from Art's ear—even though he knew it wasn't his partner who had been with him for a month, he still couldn't help but look over.

He turned his head with difficulty, looking at the group of scavengers who were attracted by the smell of blood:
Hyenas, vultures, ravens, black crows.
