Chapter 181 The Winged Race
Owen was reading the document in his hand carefully and did not notice this strangeness at first.
But as the black spots grew larger and the light in the room became darker, he realized something was wrong.
Looking up, Owen noticed a strange black figure on the floor, like a large bird with wings spread.
Suddenly, a figure rushed straight into the office through the window, passing quickly in front of Owen's eyes, knocking over several pieces of furniture, and causing a lot of noise.
Bang! Crash——
"Lord Owen!"
Hearing the noise, Mapel rushed into the office with a sword and asked: "What happened?"
"It seemed like a big bird flew in just now."
With a puzzled look on his face, Owen stood up from his seat and saw the white feathers scattered on the ground in front of him.
Moving his eyes upward, he was surprised to find that the person lying on the ground was a demihuman with a pair of wings on his back and bird claws on his lower legs. She was also a woman, with long, fluffy white hair, and wearing a simple gray linen clothes.
"Uh, no, it's a demi-human race I've never seen before." He changed his words.
"Is it an assassin?"
Blocking Owen behind him, Mapel raised the magic sword in his hand and looked warily at the Asian woman who suddenly broke in.
"Probably not."
Owen stepped forward and took a look, and found that the female Asian on the ground had long been unconscious, and there were many injuries on her body, not only the damage caused by the impact just now.
"She's injured! Mapel, come here and help me."
"yes."
Putting away the magic sword, Mapel and Owen turned the female demi-human over together and saw a heavy black iron collar around her neck.
Owen naturally knows this thing, it is a slave collar.
It seems that this female Asian must have just escaped from the slave merchant.
"Lord, what happened?"
At this time, soldiers patrolling nearby hurried over.
Theresa, Fanny, Yukina and Viscount Jarvis also ran over. After all, the noise came from the office where Irving was located, and they were worried about it.
"I'm fine."
Owen first said to the soldier, then his eyes fell on Theresa, and then said: "Theresa, this demi-human is injured, please treat her as soon as possible."
"Okay." Teresa nodded.
Soon, the injured Asian woman was sent to the guest room closest to the office and placed on the bed.
Before starting the treatment, Teresa drove all the men out, closed the door, and then went over to take off the clothes on the female sub-human body.
"hiss--"
Teresa couldn't help but gasp when she saw the skin under the clothes, it was so scary.
There were countless whip marks on the female Asian body, and the skin that should have been white was covered with red scars. I wonder who was so cruel, did they want to beat her to death?
It's better to get treatment as soon as possible.
Teresa quickly prayed to the gods and cast healing spells on the injured.
Outside the door, Owen was not interested in going back to look through the documents now. Several servants were cleaning the office.
Thinking about the demi-human race he had never seen before, Owen turned to look at Viscount Jarvis and asked: "Viscount Jarvis, is there a demi-human race with wings in the Mysterious Forest?"
The closest demihuman race living area to Dongsheng Fortress is the Mystery Forest in the northwest.
"Um……"
Viscount Jarvis thought for a long time before he said, "It seems not. Today is the first time I have seen this kind of bird-man-like demi-human race."
"Eh? You haven't seen it either?" Owen said in surprise.
"Um."
Obviously, the Asian woman definitely did not come from the Mysterious Forest.
Moreover, she was wearing a slave collar around her neck, which must have been smuggled in by slave traders from other places.
What kind of demi-human race could it be? Owen was lost in thought.
Venora Forest, Rolla Forest, wilderness areas, and between dangerous peaks and mountains. These places and the Mysterious Forest are the main living areas of the demihuman race.
In addition, there are also some hidden places on the continent where demihuman races live.
However, I have never heard of a flying demi-human race anywhere. Is it because I am ignorant?
Forget it, Owen shook his head, let's wait until the Asian woman wakes up before asking her.
Early the next morning, Nuya's eyelashes moved and she slowly opened her eyes. Those purple-gold eyes were really beautiful.
It was so comfortable, she realized that she was lying on a comfortable and soft bed, and she really wanted to lie there forever and never get up.
wrong?!
The female Asian girl suddenly turned over and sat up, subconsciously reached out to touch her neck, and was surprised to find that the annoying iron collar was gone.
I checked my hands and body again and found that all the bruises had faded and the whiplash was almost healed. I couldn't feel any pain at all and my whole body felt very comfortable.
What's going on? It's really great!
Of course, the female Asian was not happy for long and began to look left and right, observing the room she was in.
This seems to be a mansion room only for wealthy people, but why are you here?
Recalling what happened yesterday bit by bit, the female Asian finally broke the cage that locked her up and hurriedly went to the sky.
At that time, she just wanted to escape from the pursuit of the bad guys, and she just kept flying without checking the direction.
But she felt so tired and hungry at that time, and her physical strength was severely exhausted. She could only barely fly in mid-air. Finally, her consciousness gradually became blurred, as if she had crashed into a very tall house.
"You finally woke up."
A sweet and soft voice came from the door, which frightened the female Asian woman and shrank her body inside, looking over with vigilant eyes.
Standing at the door was a female human with long black hair, a friendly and beautiful smile on her face, and a large bowl of hot wheat porridge in her hand.
Just looking at that gentle smile, Nuya felt that her heart was being healed by her, and her vigilance also collapsed.
What's going on? Is this female human an angel?
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. I also healed your injuries yesterday."
Theresa came over and put the bowl of wheat porridge on the bedside table.
"You just woke up, you must be very hungry, right? I specially asked the kitchen to prepare a bowl of wheat porridge. Eat it quickly."
Staring intently at the bowl of wheat porridge, the female Asian couldn't help but swallow.
She was indeed very hungry. Without saying a word, she quickly picked up the bowl of wheat porridge, grabbed the spoon, scooped up the porridge and ate it into her mouth, completely ignoring the way she ate it.
"Eat slowly, be careful not to choke." Teresa said softly.
After a while, the female Asian woman finished eating, not even a drop of porridge liquid was left at the bottom of the bowl.
Satisfied, she put the empty bowl back on the bedside table. She found Theresa beside her looking at her with a smile, her cheeks suddenly turned red, and she whispered: "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Immediately afterwards, Teresa introduced herself to the female demi-human: "My name is Teresa, and I am a senior priest. What about you?"
