Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 166 165 [Forgotten Box Garden] The Road to Escape

Elena's body is gradually melting.

Her original fair complexion had turned into a lifeless gray-black, and her whole body slid from the middle to the sides like cement slurry, forming a shape similar to a pyramid, and the black water on the ground suddenly stopped at this moment Afterwards, as if they "received some kind of order", they flocked towards Elena's direction one after another.

Angie, who was rushed away from the scene by Elijah, saw this abnormal scene.She stared fixedly at the black water, seeing that they were about to rush towards Elena, but her vision was blocked by the rushing monsters at this moment, and she couldn't see the follow-up.

At this moment, they had already left the safe range of the magic circle at the door of the wooden house.But during the time when Angie and Elena bid farewell, Estherine had completed the last few paintings for the magic circle on that silver plate, so this silver plate became their new "patron saint".

Everything is as planned.Now, they are rushing to the cursed river outside the village with this silver coffin board.

As the only two people with sound limbs, Sean consciously replaced Andrea, who was injured in her hand, and "charged with a coffin" with Lauren, and Angie also jumped out of Elijah's arms. Running fast on the muddy ground with everyone.

The original dense white mist had become misty like a gauze, and as they ran, the nauseating stench gradually faded away.

Under the light of the pale moon, even in the distance beyond the reach of the orange candlelight, they could clearly see the strange trees running towards them, the mutated villagers, and many wolves, cattle, sheep, and chickens with red eyes. There are even some big bouncing flowers.

They have bright red plump petals, with many white spots on them, and the place where the stamens should have been turned into a big mouth with sharp teeth, and there are still some pieces of meat and blood on the teeth.

These flowers obviously came from the forest, and these mutated flowers and trees were just like the story of the Witch's Forest that Iserine told, which made Eserine shudder.

But unlike the story, these creepy monsters can't hurt them.

The large magic circle on the silver plate played a decisive role.Along the way, Lauren and Sean carried the big board and ran quickly, using the transparent magic circle around them to knock away all kinds of monsters along the way. squeezed aside.

The trees ran with all their might.They kept frantically beating everything around them with branches and trunks, and beat the nearby monsters to pieces, but they still couldn't hurt these tiny humans who were running forward, and could only roar impotently.

But these movements succeeded in attracting more mutated people and animals.The monsters of different shapes ran here recklessly, their limbs collided with each other, and at the same time they made a creepy and muddy roar. The Great Migration of Species".

It's just that in this completely occupied Norson village, it is impossible for other "people" to witness this scene.

This time, Etherine did not fall at the end of the line.Lauren and Sean were taking care of her speed, running as close to her as possible, while Angie was also pulling her forward.

She gasped for breath, and the terrifying picture of Elena's melting just now flashed repeatedly in her heart, which made her feel scared from the bottom of her heart, but also felt a burst of deep sadness——

Because the character of "Elena" is exactly the same as Elena herself.

Etherine couldn't figure out what was going on.In her eyes, Elena is just a "smelly girl who clings to her sister every day", but even though she knows that Angie is not Susanna, she is willing to obediently obey Angie instead of begging them to take her with her—

wrong.It is precisely because she knows that Anji is not her elder sister that this silly girl is so obedient.

Thinking of this, Estherine felt even more sad.But she was really exhausted right now, so she immediately put these sad emotions behind her and focused all her attention on the running.

There is a long distance between the Black River outside the forest and the village of Knowlson.After running wildly for a few minutes, everyone felt a little tired, so they went to a nearby wooden house to take a rest.

The family of the original owner of this wooden house had already died in the witch trial.They took over the room logically, but hearing the roars from outside the room and the heavy impact of monsters, they couldn't calm down to rest at all, and just wanted to seize the time to exchange information.

Now, Lauren and Andrea finally learned about the strange things that happened to other people.

The abstract linear witch made them very shocked, and after hearing about the witch's day, the two of them were so surprised that their eyes widened, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

"This is completely different from what we know." Lauren covered his head with a headache, "Andrea and I sneaked into Cesar's room before, and saw the story of the witch in the book on his desk. The information of the night... That book has a secret interlayer, and the slip of paper hidden in the interlayer says 'The Night of the Witch will destroy the entire Noelson Village' and the specific time... How can this kind of information carefully hidden by Cesar Could it be fake?"

"What you see is not necessarily fake news, and it doesn't matter whether it's true or not," Angie looked at him and Andrea seriously, "We just need to believe the earlier version of 'Doomsday'— — because we cannot afford the consequences."

Lauren naturally knows this truth.He didn't pursue this any further, but said dejectedly after a little thought: "The witch's day is probably tomorrow, but we don't know when the next day will come...but it's still the middle of the night, as long as Things are going well, there should be time..."

"...Yeah, after all, we don't have a way to accurately judge the time."

Angie said, sighing quietly.

In this era, whether it was Gloskland she was familiar with or this village of Norson, people's timing was judged according to the sun—that is, they worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.

"There are 24 hours in a day" is a concept that very few noble people have - but whether it is ordinary people or these aristocratic lords, they don't need to accurately judge the time, and they don't need to think about these insignificant things.

But now, these insignificant things have become a matter of life and death, which makes Anji inevitably feel a little guilty:
In the final analysis, this is still a disadvantage of being uneducated...

During the time when everyone was talking in low voices, Estherine consciously repainted the magic circle for the silver plate.

Due to the attacks of countless monsters along the way, the bright red magic circle has faded a lot.But after everyone hid in the house and deliberately closed the doors and windows, the monsters who followed them gradually became quiet as if they had lost their attack targets.

Seeing that the situation is still safe for the time being, Elijah thought for a while before telling Anji about Elena.

As early as this afternoon, Elena was taken to the church by Cesar, saying that it was for her to recover from her wounds and prevent them from getting worse.

Angie had already been taken to the dungeon at that time, so she naturally didn't know about it.

But Elijah was always there.He watched as Cesar took Elena to a separate room where the wounded were treated, but only locked her in the room to prevent her from running around, and then took Elijah and the other night watchmen to go The village deals with other trivial matters.

At that time, Elijah and Cesar were busy all day, and they didn't find an excuse to leave until the evening, and hurried to the dungeon to find Angie, so Elijah didn't know what happened to the girl.

Angie listened to the story in silence.

After the hasty farewell to Elena, she had suppressed all her personal emotions in her heart.Now Angie hardly has any unnecessary mood swings, and her thinking has become extremely clear.

It's just that she still has a few things to figure out.

"Iserine once told me the story of the Witch's Forest," Angie briefly summed up the matter with everyone, "judging from the current situation, the mutated forest in the story, the black water monster disguised as a human, And the witch's laugh, all three fit in with what happened in Knowlson—so, Etherine, where did this story come from?"

"It's what I read from the book...it's the book I've been carrying with me."

When mentioning the missing book, Estherine's tone inevitably became a little low: "It was a gift from my father on my tenth birthday. He said that the things in this book are very important and must not be let go. Anyone who sees it, let me remember all the knowledge in it as much as possible... Most of it is related to exorcism and magic circle, only the story of the Witch's Forest seems very strange..."

"There's only one story in this book?" Angie asked earnestly, staring at Iselin.

"Well... After all, this is just a book that records exorcism knowledge, and there shouldn't be any stories. But the strangest thing is that 'this is just a story' is repeatedly mentioned at the beginning and end of this story, like I was afraid that someone would take it seriously.

I asked Dad, and he said that if it’s just this story, you can tell it to others, but Norson Village is very taboo about witches, so I only dared to tell you this story secretly..."

As Etherine spoke, she carefully glanced at Angie, only to find that the latter just lowered his eyes slightly, looking thoughtful.

"Hmm... Forest of the Witch," Charles thought, "I remember that there is also a foreign land called 'Forest of the Witch' near Gloskland, right?"

"Well, we came here from that area," Sean continued naturally, "it's just that we didn't enter that area this time. I've been to the Witch's Forest once before, but that It’s just a low-level foreign land, which is very different from the current Norson Village—there are more and denser monsters, there is no white mist, and no one will mutate there.”

"Wait a minute——" Charles tried his best to wait until Sean finished speaking, and then hurriedly opened his mouth. He looked at Angie and Sean in surprise, "So you were led by Glosk?!"

"...?" Sean didn't understand what Charles was surprised about.

But Angie suddenly felt helpless: I didn't expect that there would be so many follow-ups in impersonating Flesh in the dungeon on a whim...

Seeing that Charles' expression became more and more aggrieved, she couldn't help but sighed: "Oh, I got it! I'll explain it to you when I get out... Now let's talk about the serious stuff."

"Hmm~!"

Charles laughed brightly, the original aggrieved expression was gone.

If it were normal, Anji would not only suspect that his previous grievances were faked, but also suspect that his hearty smile was also some kind of disguise.

But now, she just sorted out the known clues in her mind silently, and then heard Elijah asking: "Iserine, why didn't your magic circle block that Elena?"

"...How do I know!" Estherine glared at Elijah unwilling to be outdone, and added the last few strokes for the magic circle, and then added dissatisfiedly: "The magic circle is not invincible! It can only block Curses and some inexplicable things, and it needs a certain area to play the best role... There were no monsters in the village before, and I didn't have the opportunity to do any exorcism. I could only memorize the pictures in the book-even many I can’t understand the words!!”

Elijah couldn't help frowning at Iselin's vague answer. At the same time, Lauren asked Iselin in confusion: "The magic circle drawn on our hands before could not resist the white mist, because Is the area too small?"

"I don't know, maybe..." Estherine murmured uncertainly, under the gaze of everyone, she couldn't help but leaned closer to Angie, "Hey, don't keep looking at me! Such a professional I can't answer the question - if you have the ability, you go ask my parents!"

Lauren and Andrea: "…"

"Okay, okay, don't be awkward."

Angie smiled helplessly, gently stroking Iseline's head like soothing a cat with frizz.

But just when everyone was about to leave, she asked Iserine that extremely critical question in a very ordinary tone:
"Iselin, the magic circle is ineffective against witches, right?"

Thanks for the [mouse clicked on me] monthly ticket~

Although this acknowledgment party can't see it, I still have to thank what I should thank~

Damn, I feel that my writing is not as good as the video hosts at station b!The few videos I watched recently really made me lament that my skills are not as good as others...

I can only comfort myself thinking "my novel is better than the number of words"...
