Screams spread from the distance, like the wails of a dying person, gradually spreading here.
On the spot, with a soft sound, a wooden bowl fell to the ground.
Looking at Adil's face in front of her, the girl turned around blankly and gradually looked towards the direction of the sound. Her mind went blank, as if she still didn't understand what happened.
"What's wrong?"
She stayed there in a daze, her mind a little dazed for a moment, and it took her a while to realize what she was doing.
"Ghoul!!"
Her face suddenly turned pale, as if she had thought of something terrible. After turning around and looking at Adier in front of her, she immediately put down the things she had brought and ran out directly.
Soon, what happened in the distance reached Adier's ears.
At night, another person was attacked. The whole person was torn in half, and all the intestines and flesh were missing. It seemed that they were all eaten by the attacking ghoul.
Not only that, on the corpse, large chunks of meat disappeared, and the deep bite marks and terrifying cracks were frightening.
This is the typical killing method of a ghoul, tearing the person apart and then eating all the internal organs and important muscles, leaving only a grim face filled with fear.
After this incident happened, the whole village immediately fell into panic.
The beings who originally went out to scavenge during the day were in fear all day long. At this time, they did not dare to leave their villages and continue exploring the battlefield outside.
As a widely distributed monster, the habits of ghouls are well known to the general public.
It would be fine if they gathered together, and they might be able to prevent the ghouls from attacking easily, but if they dispersed, they would probably be defeated one by one by the lurking ghouls and swallowed up one by one.
Feeling the atmosphere in the village, Adil sighed softly in the tent in the village.
After these few days, most of his injuries have healed. Although they have not completely healed, he has managed to regain some strength.
Although it is insignificant compared to Adil's body, it is enough for ordinary people. With Adil's control, it is enough to fight a knight head-on.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he spent most of his time recovering this body and his life during this period was really bad, Adil would have officially activated the Seed of Life and become a true knight.
In just half a month, he went from an ordinary person who had undergone partial knight training to a being close to a formal knight. If this progress were told, it would probably scare everyone.
According to the memory of Adiel's body, he is close to the strength of the knight and is already considered a tyrant in this area, which is enough for him to find a better place to hide.
He originally planned to find an excuse to leave in the past few days, and then find an opportunity to pay these scavengers some rewards, as a reward for dragging him from the battlefield and taking care of him until now.
But after what happened, his original idea was unknowingly given up.
If we leave now, these scavengers in front of us will only have the last result. Sooner or later, they will be eliminated one by one, and no bones will be left after they die.
Thinking about this result, Adier thought for a while alone, but in the end he made no move and just lay there quietly.
A few days passed slowly. During these few days, it seemed that because these scavengers had been staying together, the ghoul did not continue to attack, but lurked quietly.
But this situation cannot last long.
In the final analysis, the reason why scavengers go to scavenge is because of poverty.
Gathering together for a long time can certainly make the ghoul dare not strike, but it also prevents these scavengers from going out to scavenge and can only rely on their past savings to survive.
The threat of death is terrifying, but poverty is equally maddening.
If the confrontation continues for such a long time, the first ones to fail are the scavengers.
In addition, because of the peace and harmony during this period, some people felt a little relaxed and began to tentatively leave the station and go to the outside world. Finally, they returned in peace and harmony.
After this result appeared, the gathered scavengers breathed a sigh of relief, and the tight string immediately relaxed.
For a time, this small village of scavengers seemed to have returned to its original scene, as busy and peaceful as before.
Another night.
Adil lay quietly on the bed made of straw, with his eyes closed quietly, as if he was asleep.
Outside, slight footsteps sounded, and then a girl named Wendy came out, holding a bowl of steaming hot soup in her hand.
She looked very new, her face was full of joy, and it seemed like something good had happened.
"You look happy."
Feeling the girl coming in in front of him, Adil slowly opened his eyes, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Wendy in front of him.
"yes."
Watching Adil wake up, Wendy's face became even more joyful.
While she put down the hot soup she was holding in her hand, she looked at Adil in front of her. Her face looked red. Although her appearance was not beautiful, she looked particularly vivid this time.
"Uncle, he shot a big wild boar today. He brought it back and distributed it to everyone. Everyone got a piece of meat!"
She was somewhat happy to tell Adil about this, with obvious joy in her words.
"He is such an easy-to-satisfy child."
Adil shook his head secretly, not knowing what else to say.
Wendy's uncle is a hunter in this village. It is said that because of his superb skills, he has great prestige in this village of scavengers.
During this period of time, Adil had heard the girl's story about her uncle's deeds more than once, and a rough image had been formed in his mind.
After drinking the hot soup in the wooden bowl, Adier suddenly froze, as if he felt something, and silently looked to the outside world.
He saw that the moon outside was very round, and under the deep darkness, the bright moonlight shone on the earth, illuminating the entire earth.
Looking at the scenery and feeling a certain aura around him, Adil sighed softly, then turned around, looked at the girl in front of him, and couldn't help but speak softly.
"Wendy."
"Huh?" Hearing Adier's shout, the girl raised her head in confusion and met Adier's eyes.
Under the light of the torch in the dark night, Adil was wearing shabby clothes, with his long hair neatly brushed down casually. His face looked so beautiful in the dark night, with a little softness in his eyes.
The tone was so gentle that it was irresistible.
"Can you stay tonight?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, feeling the strong mark left on her body, Adil spoke softly, looking at the girl with his eyes.
"Ah?" After the words fell, the girl let out a scream, and her face instantly turned extremely red with embarrassment.
She looked at Adil lying on the straw in front of her, looking at his face, which was as red as blood, and thought of various scenes in her mind at the same time.
Obviously, she misunderstood what Adier meant.
However, in front of Adil, looking at Adil's soft eyes, she lowered her head in the end, just sorting out the items around her without saying a word.
It wasn't until a while later that she carefully took some clothes from her house and sneaked into Adil's tent.
This process was accidentally observed by others, causing a burst of cheers and whistles.
Watching this process carefully and lying quietly on a pile of straw, Adil shook his head.
He just wanted to keep the girl by his side at first, but he didn't expect that this kind of misunderstanding would arise.
However, at this point, there is no need to explain.
At night, under the gaze of the girl's nervous face, Adil never moved. He just closed his eyes silently and lay there quietly.
This kind of performance immediately made the girl feel a little complicated, feeling inexplicably lost, and she also breathed a sigh of relief.
All kinds of thoughts appeared in her mind at this moment, and then slowly became blank, allowing her to slowly fall asleep.
At night, when darkness enveloped the entire world, a figure slowly appeared outside Adil's camp.
It was a very tall-looking figure, tall and burly, with animal skins covering his upper body, and a rough face with no expression.
He just looked at the camp in front of him, feeling the mark he had left, with a sneer on his face.
With a gentle wave of his hand, the tent in front of him automatically parted, and then he took a gentle step and walked directly in.
Walking in, the figures of Adil and Wendy came into view.
Looking at the neat tent in front of him, without any trace of mess, and Adil and Wendy lying separately, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, as if he was a little surprised.
However, he didn't pay much attention to this surprise. He turned around and looked at his target this time, which was the girl lying far away.
When they arrived at Adier's camp, the girl was wearing a relatively complete red outfit. Although the clothes above were still a little shabby, they were still generally complete.
She was just lying there, looking like she was sleeping soundly.
But after the figure entered, the girl unconsciously frowned due to a certain pull between the breaths, and then she woke up directly.
When she woke up from a deep sleep, she looked a little sleepy and a little unconscious.
But after seeing the tall man appearing in front of her, her mind suddenly became clear and her face became nervous: "Uncle."
The tall man who appeared in front of her was clearly her only relative, her uncle.
"Wendy..."
A slight and hoarse voice sounded in place.
In front of him, the man looked at Wendy in front of him. A strange smile appeared on his rough face. It looked like a smile but not a smile, which was a bit weird.
"What are you doing here?"
He asked looking at Wendy in front of him, with a weird smile on his face.
"Uncle, I..."
When asked by a man, the girl's face became a little nervous.
This is normal.
No matter what kind of girl she is, when her elders see her lying in a man's tent, she will instinctively feel nervous and uneasy.
Not to mention, the person standing in front of the girl is the girl's only relative.
She spoke quickly, looking at Adil lying next to her, and was about to explain.
A huge arm stopped her movement.
In front of Wendy, the man had a weird smile on his face, and his face looked half-smiling, but he just quietly extended a hand to the girl in front of him.
Wow...
There was a slight breaking sound, which was the sound of clothes being torn.
In front of Wendy's eyes, the man's arm rapidly changed and expanded rapidly into a huge black arm with sharp bone spurs growing out of it.
On the bone spurs on the arms, a little bit of black breath flickers, making anyone who smells it want to vomit.
Wendy stared blankly at this scene, her original voice was suppressed in her throat. Looking at the man in front of her, her mind went blank and she seemed unable to react.
"Uncle, you!!"
After a long time, she realized what had happened. She looked at the man in front of her with deep disbelief in her eyes.
Her face was pale and the corners of her mouth were slightly open, as if she was about to say something.
However, in front of her, the man did not give her a chance.
Bang!
A huge arm swept across, creating a huge storm and directly swept Wendy away from her eyes, causing her to fall to the ground.
In front of his eyes, the man's chest gradually changed, and tiny textures appeared on his originally rough face, making him look very scary.
"How tempting."
He looked at Wendy in front of him, with greed on his face, and deep appetite in his eyes.
"Heart, liver and lungs... they all look delicious."
A low voice sounded in place, sounding increasingly awkward and hoarse, as if it was forced out of the throat.
In front of her eyes, Wendy had a deep fear on her face as she watched the monster in front of her slowly approaching. Then a sharp claw grabbed her hard, trying to tear her apart, causing her to suffer the same fate as the previous ones.
Ahhhhhhhh!!
A violent sound echoed in the place, it was the girl's desperate cry.
Looking at the girl's panicked look, the monster had a strange smile on his face, as if he had thought of the next bloody scene.
Bang!!!
The next moment, a sound like the clash of gold and iron resounded, resounding rapidly in the place, and the air flow caused by it caused the surrounding straw to fly horizontally.
At the critical moment, a seemingly small but powerful arm compared to the monster's arm suddenly stretched out, and at this moment, it directly held the claw that was swinging down.
On the same spot, without knowing when, Adil was already standing in front of the girl.
He looked pale, his face was bloodless due to long-term hunger and cold, and there were huge wounds wrapped all over his body. His frivolous steps looked like he might fall down at any time.
But despite this, his figure is very tall and straight. Although his handsome face is expressionless, the sharp look in his eyes fully displays his firm and huge fighting will.
