007 Horizon

Hungry, so hungry, want to eat.

This is the only thought in Sitting Bull's mind right now.

He had obviously eaten all the food reserves, and his stomach was full to death. But he couldn't stop the urge to eat something. Everyone in the tribe looked the same, looking around with red eyes. All the animals had been eaten.

, but I don’t know why it could only be eaten on the big days of sacrifices in the past.

, such delicious beef became like chewing wax. Everyone gnawed all the bones of the beef, but they were still not satisfied. The chief still walked at the front of the team, moving firmly towards the big stone city. It was so big, it must be

There is something delicious. Sitting Bull thought as he dragged his heavy steps forward.

Yesterday, Ada found a group of wild boars on the road. A group of people who were almost crazy with hunger rushed up and dragged all the wild boars back. They even saved the effort of disemboweling them and gnawed them clean. But this big one

After eating more than a dozen wild boars, big and small, I seem to be even hungrier today. My body seems to be getting hot.

Sitting Bull thought there might be something wrong with his body.

"Ada, are you hungry?"

"Hungry"

“I feel so hot”

"Um"

"Ada, how far do we have to go before we get there?"

"It's not far away, right over the mountain."

As he spoke, a white stone wall appeared on the horizon.

The small figure appearing on the horizon instantly triggered the detection circle that had been turned on. A wave of magic power was transmitted to Piagena, the mage on duty today. He raised his head from the book and confirmed that the wave was still being fed back.

, and it’s getting stronger and stronger.

It turned out that more and more humanoid creatures were approaching the tower from the defense area. Piaget frowned: "This thing can't be broken, right? There are so many humanoid creatures in this place." Suspicion is suspicion, and the steps must be followed.

Go through the process. Piaget went to the top of the tower

, looked towards the horizon: "Am I dazzled by reading?" He rubbed his eyes, and the little man on the horizon was still clearly visible. Piaget suddenly trembled, and cold sweat appeared on his head.

He quickly released an Eagle Eye Technique on himself, a powerful

Arcane energy poured into his eyes, greatly strengthening his eyes. This time, he could clearly see an old man wearing a long-feathered crown, followed by a strong man wearing furs and holding a stone axe.

Soldiers. Further back, mixed with women and children.

"It's strange, where did they come from? Are there really tribes in this wasteland? I thought this regulation was made up."

Piaget muttered as he opened the enchanted safe. "Well, a humanoid hostile creature appeared, releasing a yellow signal scroll." He looked up the alarm signal correspondence table inside the box lid and found the yellow scroll.

Piaget raised his hands and tore open the scroll with force. A powerful flash technique that had been sealed for many years was released, completing the mission it was given when it was created.

A strong yellow flash lit up from the commanding heights of the fortress. It lasted for one second and flashed three times in a row. The infantry team sitting under the second city wall talked about it: "What signal is this?"

"I don't know, I've never seen it before"

"It's so bright. Could it be that the magic power of the mage tower is going out of control?"

"Will it explode?"

"Shut up!"

The team officers severely scolded the soldiers who were making random guesses, and then gathered together.

"What's going on? What's going on up there?" This is the 3rd captain with a rude look on his face.

"I don't know. I've been here for almost ten years, and this is the first time I've seen him."

"It's not really going to explode, is it?"

"Hey, Galad! Aren't you in charge of the signal? What is this?"

Galard, who was passing by when he was stopped, had a serious look on his face: "I know this signal. Humanoid creatures are attacking."

"Where did the humanoids come from in this place?"

"Yes, I killed him with my own hands 21 years ago."

The surrounding air suddenly became quiet.

Palma ran quickly down the dark corridor and came to the door again. Palma knocked hard on the door a few times and pushed the door open without even waiting for a response. Count Tashkent, who was taking a nap in disheveled clothes, jumped up:

"Palma you!?" He looked at Parma's face and sighed: "Tell me, what kind of bad news is it?"

Palma pointed to the door: "The Mage Tower released a yellow flash signal."

"What yellow flash signal? What happened?" After the count finished speaking, he paused. As if he thought of something, his clothes-covered hands trembled: "It can't be that yellow warning, right?"

"A single three-second flash, three flashes, is a yellow warning for humanoids approaching." Palma answered seriously.

“Verify now!”

"yes!"

Palma turned around and ran out of the covered bridge, and the sparse figures were already visible to the naked eye. He paused in his running steps, turned back and said to the count: "It has been verified, you can see it directly."

The Earl of Tashkent's buttoning hand shook and he sighed: "Oh, let's inform the Seventh Knights to prepare for battle. It will be a hard battle next."

Otto and Nantes were still taking a nap in the guard post when they were suddenly awakened by the loud discussion on the city wall.

"What is that? Is that a human being?"

"Stop talking nonsense. In this vast wilderness, if something looks like a person, it doesn't necessarily mean he is actually a person."

The soldiers on the city wall were chatting while throwing their spears to defend themselves against the impact of the beasts that were not very dense yet. The black charcoal under the fortress had been completely covered with white ice and snow.

A group of people covered in animal skins, let's just call them humans, have entered the fortress's sight. They are swaying and not in formation. There are strange paints on their naked bodies, and they are holding fierce sticks and axes in their hands.

, there were also sharpened wooden sticks, and some people were picking up something while walking. They walked slowly and slowly, separating the herds of animals, like a wedge, and slowly and steadily advanced towards the city wall.

Sitting Bull followed Ada to the city wall. When they reached the city wall and stood almost 200 meters away, the chief raised his hand and said, "It's so annoying. You guys who are trying to grab something to eat, go to the back."

, If you don’t want to leave, eat it!” A minute ago, he was going fiercely towards

The seemingly irrational beasts that rushed towards the city wall showed obvious flinching at this time, rolling back like a tide, revealing the open space between them and the city wall. The beasts followed them, as if hounds were following them.

The owner wanted to pick up some scraps.

"Eat it? That's right. Didn't we all eat these in the past? This much meat is enough to last until next summer." Sitting Bull's instinct felt a little strange, but a voice in his heart told him: "These things are not delicious.

They are as tasteless as the cows and wild boars before. Have you seen the city wall? The white meat on it, the delicious meat. There is a lot behind the city wall. Rush over and eat to your heart's content!" This thought instantly overwhelmed all previous thoughts.

.A rush of blood rushed into Sitting Bull's mind.

There is no white left in Sitting Bull's eyes. The white part of the eyes has been filled with red threads. Thick blood vessels have covered his body. His nostrils have grown and he is breathing violently. This is not even an illusion, because Sitting Bull

He felt that his muscles were gradually expanding. An instinctive hunting impulse was surging against his last sanity.

"Calm down! It's not the time to charge yet!" The chief's voice came, and a kind of oppression on the food chain forced Sitting Bull to quiet down. The chief turned around, and his once peaceful and wise face had completely sunk into the bulging blood vessels, and his facial features

It completely disappeared. There were only two eyes left, with no pupils visible, and red eyes like gems. "Strange, why do I think this is more suitable for the chief?"

The chief inserted the bone sword in his hand into the ground, and a strange and dirty green magic circle appeared on the ground. It had black lines. As the magic circle rotated, it repeatedly shrank and expanded. The shrinking halo looked like a beating heart.

, as the magic circle began to spread rapidly, this halo spread every time

Contact with a person will cause them to fall into a gray-green halo with yellow spots, leaving only blood-red eyes. Then the skin, muscles, and bones of these people begin to swell, and their nails gradually become longer and sharper, and their teeth

Starting to grow, these people have begun to break away from the category of human form.

Sitting Bull raised his hand and looked at the claws that had just grown on his hand, as well as the bone armor on the back of his hand. He felt that he was stronger than ever before. He let out a cry of joy: "Roar!!"
