Kiel heard what the werewolf said, who didn't know if he was dead or not, and immediately realized that the other party was calling Lanisa Knight's name.
He turned his head to look at Knight Lanisa, but found that the female knight was just stunned for a moment, and then immediately slashed down the one-handed epee fiercely.
Kiel's hand twitched, but ultimately there was no movement.
However, the female knight's sword did not kill the werewolf who called her name, it just slashed heavily at the side of the werewolf's neck, and deeply inserted most of the epee into the cold and hard soil.
Knight Lanisa tightly grasped the hilt of the sword with the remaining palm, stretched out her hand and pushed the hilt forward, and slanted the blade close to the werewolf's neck.
"who are you?"
She and the werewolf looked into each other's eyes, and paused for a few moments before speaking a brief question.
The werewolf ignored the deadly sword on the neck, and grinned at the wolf-shaped face as if to express a smile, then rolled his eyes again, and his whole body twitched and changed.
-
When the giant wolf-like wolf king transformed into a tall and strong werewolf, the changes in his body were very violent and strange. But now the new changes that are following closely now are also very different.
The thick and long body hair of the werewolf disappeared quickly, or broke from the root and fell to the ground, or shrunk completely into the pores of the skin. At the same time, the werewolf's three-meter-tall body also shrank rapidly, but within two breaths, it became the height of a normal person.
The animal-like structure with reflexed legs and feet in the werewolf also changed into the form of human knees amidst two loud creaking sounds. But the arm that was broken before did not re-grow, but in the process of body changes, some parts of the body that were not fatal injuries quickly disappeared with the body changes.
After the werewolf completely transformed into a naked middle-aged man, there were only three wounds left on his body. One was in the middle of the forehead, where there was a narrow but deep cleft in the brain. The second one was on the arm, the shoulder-length severed arm was still slowly oozing bright red blood from the wound.
The last wound was the one on the chest. On the side of the chest with messy chest hair, there is a huge wound that goes straight to the center of the chest. The double-edged metal spear that was originally inserted on it has fallen to the ground because the wolf king's size has gradually shrunk. Tiny traces of magical blood scorching blows.
Kiel and Knight Lanisa didn't move when the werewolf's figure changed further, they just looked at all this in surprise. Keir felt that all these changes were justified, but he was still a little surprised.
However, Knight Lanisa, who was half kneeling on the ground next to her, was quite different.
She gritted her teeth and wanted to press down her palm several times to decapitate the changing werewolf with the blade, but she couldn't do it. Because the appearance of the werewolf beast in front of her was rapidly changing into a face she was extremely familiar with.
When the changes in the middle-aged man in front of him were completely over, Knight Lanisa could no longer hold the weapon in his hand. She put the one-handed epee on the ground beside her, and then touched the cheek of the middle-aged man on the ground in front of her with the palm of her thick steel glove.
The beard on the man's chin looked carefully trimmed and groomed, not at all like a long-lost man who had just transformed from a huge beast.
Kiel felt strange and a little wary, but Knight Lanisa burst into tears from his eyes.
It was a beard style her father had always liked and kept.
When she went home to meet her father for the last time, her father kept this beard style. Among the portraits hanging in the study at home, there is a portrait commissioned by her mother as a posthumous portrait.
The white eyes of the middle-aged man on the ground gradually stopped twitching and gradually became normal. Soon, the same pupil-colored eyes as Knight Lanisa focused and looked at Knight Lanisa.
The twitching of his body also stopped, he raised his arm with difficulty, and slowly stretched his hand towards Knight Lanisa's cheek.
When Kiel saw the opponent reaching out, he didn't know whether to stop him, but he still held his sword cautiously. If the opponent dared to attack while the knight was in a trance, he would immediately cut off the opponent's arm with his sword.
But Keir still thought about it.
That hand slowly covered Knight Lanisa's blood-stained cheek, and carefully wiped away the tears that Knight Lanisa shed.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Jenny. I'm ashamed of my family, my family." The intermittent soft voice spit out from the man's mouth.
After he just said a word, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and the several serious wounds on his body seemed to suddenly realize that he was fatally wounded again, and the blood gradually flowed out from inside.
But the blood is healthy red blood.
"Father."
Lanisa Knight couldn't say anything else, just kept repeating.
"You did, well. I'm not as good as you."
The eyes that had recovered just now seemed to be loose again due to the injury.
"Sorry, I didn't know it was you. Father, father."
Knight Ranisa couldn't control it anymore, and burst into tears.
The dying man on the ground just gently stroked the family crest on the knight helmet of Ranisa with trembling palms.
"I don't blame you. In fact, it's all my fault. I was greedy for the power of my hometown. I forgot, forgot the wise man's warning in the story, warning."
After finishing speaking, he pulled Knight Lanisa's helmet, and Knight Lanisa immediately stretched her head over with the opponent's strength.
The helmet is near the man's mouth.
Kiel noticed a detail, Knight Lanisa's intact arm gently caught the one-handed epee placed aside.
However, the dying middle-aged man on the ground only spoke softly to Knight Lanisa.
After saying a few words, Knight Lanisa said to Kiel, "Kiel, please stay away."
"Ah, I see. I'm going to step back now." Keel slapped his head and realized that he really shouldn't be here at this time. If this dying man was pretending and wanted to sneak attack Lanisa Knight, Lanisa Knight was obviously wary of his actions just now, so he probably wouldn't be fooled.
And if the other party just wants to confess something that has not been explained before before death, obviously, as far as Kiel thinks, it must be inseparable from the means and methods that the other party can transform into a giant wolf king and werewolf. Or about the secret things related to their family, which is not what he should listen to.
In this way, Kiel put away his long sword to hunt, and strode back to the edge of the snow and fog where the horses were running.
He just looked in the direction of Knight Lanisa from afar.
-
The dying man didn't speak for a long time, and the blood on his body, who didn't know where it came from, gushed out from the wound. Knight Lanisa tried to block it with her palm, but to no avail.
The dying man just grabbed Lanisa Knight's palm to prevent her from doing these useless things, shook his head, and said goodbye to his daughter for the last time.
"Give me a decent funeral, burn it, take the ashes home to your mother, but don't put them in the family vault, I've disgraced the family, woo, woo."
"Also, take revenge for me, he's not very good, but don't let him run away."
"Huh, huh, huh. Finally, Jenny, I'm sorry to delay your life."
Knight Lanisa was speechless, but lightly rested her head on the man's chest, allowing the blood gushing from the man's chest to stain her helmet red.
"Hey, hey. Knight, knight is actually not bad, right. Daughter."
As soon as he finished speaking, the blood that came out of nowhere on his body stopped surging, and flowed back into the wound in an unreasonable way.
Knight Lanisa raised her head at this time, raised her arm that was not broken at this time, and pointed straight to the sky.
He clenched his fist and waved towards the sky, as if trying to grab something.
But this is just a futile move.
In the distance, where the hunters were cautiously confronting each other, there was a mocking howl of wolves.
Upon hearing this, Knight Lanisa slammed her fist on the ground aside.
Boom!
Kiel's legs felt the ground vibrate. Where Knight Lanisa punched, the soil on the ground flew straight up and down for nearly half a meter.
She just wanted to get up with the sword, but when she saw the dead man on the ground in front of her, she put away her thoughts of fighting again.
"Keil, tell everyone to come here. Leave that damned werewolf alone, the werewolf will leave here by himself." After she finished speaking, she whistled.
The war horse that had been running in circles slowed down when it heard the whistle, and then gradually came over.
Kiel promised Knight Lanisa, and hurried towards the hunters.
Knight Lanisa stood up and took out a simple camping tarpaulin from the small bag on the back of the horse, carefully wrapped her father's body, and covered his face together.
She knew that little Keel would definitely have guesses in his heart, but she didn't care much. For one thing, Kiel had never met her knight father, and her father had 'disappeared' in the forest several years ago. Secondly, Keir is a foreigner. Although it seems that he wants to take root in the local area and start a career, he is not a local after all, and will need her support to gain a foothold in the local area.
It only needs to be warned that the brave young man will not have much to say.
As for the other hunters under his command, this matter had to be covered up.
The wolf king is dead, there is no doubt about it.
It didn't matter who the dead man was.
-
Afterwards, as expected by Knight Lanisa, the werewolf in the distance howled excitedly for a while, and left here by himself. Although Keel and the others were tired and hungry, they still had a lot of things to do.
The hunters dragged back all the northern land wolves that had been killed around them, and after simply peeling their skins, they piled up dozens of northern land wolf corpses, right next to a fallen tree, and Keel used his own The long sword chopped off many branches and wood, surrounded the body of the northern land wolf, lit a fire and burned the body.
The extra human corpse was lit separately and burned.
The hunters wondered how the wolf king turned into a human being in the end, and Knight Lanisa used the strange magic of the wolf king to cover it up. After all, everyone knows that this wolf king has many magical and strange abilities. It is not surprising that he can become a person or something. After all, in the strange stories told by bards, he can transform into a human being to lure human beings to kill each other, or There are so many monsters walking into the magic lair.
After all the evil had been done, everyone lit a fire and burned the human corpse transformed by the wolf king.
When Keir wanted to say something just now, Knight Lanisa gave him a stare, and he immediately shut up, agreeing to the wild guesses of the old hunters.
Knight Lanisa told him in private, asking Keir to lock in his mind the last thing he saw and heard just now, and not to tell a third person without her permission.
Correspondingly, Knight Lanisa will give Keir some help in the future to help him settle in the local area and become a real Kendall.
But Keir scratched his nose and revealed a promise he had made with Knight Crowe.
In the spring of next year, Knight Crowe asked Kiel to go out with him to participate in a war. Kiel would receive training from Knight Crowe during the journey, and he was qualified to become a knight warrior.
Lanisa Knight squinted her eyes and looked at Keir: "I didn't expect Uncle Crowe to be so optimistic about you. But yes, you are very talented and an excellent seed. But my conditions are not bad, I will make you a A true Kendall man. A house to raise a family, a solid job, it's all nice stuff. You've got a really good knack, Keel, just keep it up and we'll definitely be licking another one in Kendall County New rider. Humph! Better replace that so-called Fichner 'hog rider'."
Kiel had heard about that Fichner, who somehow had the ability of the most basic knight-level fighter, and received a territory when Baron Kendall needed manpower. Hey, it's Gloomy Forest Village.
It's just that the other party only stays in Kendall City and never goes out. He doesn't go to his own territory at all, so naturally he doesn't make any contribution. Everyone in Kendall knew about this, but the other party obviously didn't care. They just used the knight salary provided by Baron Kendall every year to eat Hesse in their knight's villa and ignore things.
Hearing such words from Knight Lanisa, it seems that they are both knights, and knights in other counties also despise that 'pig knight'.
-
The wolf skins removed by the hunters are not easy to take away, so they can only be buried in the ground on the spot. Anyway, it is cold in winter, and the rough wolf skins do not have to worry about being eaten by moths. So, everyone rested safely on the battlefield for a day, and then walked towards the rocky mountain under the leadership of Knight Lanisa.
Knight Lanisa brought her father's ashes with her, and the reason for the hunters was to bring the ashes back to the city and ask the church to check to prevent the dead wolf king from causing any further troubles.
But Kiel saw that Knight Lanisa carried her father's ashes in person, and there was more sadness in them.
Knight Lanisa seldom spoke while riding on the horse, but would touch the small leather bag containing the ashes with her hands from time to time, obviously she was not as calm as she appeared on the surface.
Everyone completely solved the matter of the wolf king of the Northland, so they didn't go fast on the return journey, and it took two days to see the rocky mountain.
Knight Lanisa heard from the hunters what happened when they evacuated the rocky mountain for the last time. Regarding the strange light fog, she didn't have anything to say. She could only judge from the previous situation that there must be something behind it.
Considering the previous warning from the Griffin Knights of the Imperial Border Knights, Knight Lanisa did not let everyone approach. She asked the hunters to stay in the water pool agreed before, and she rode her horse and ran in from the entrance passage of the rocky mountain. .
There was nothing strange about the strange fog outside the rocky mountain, and nothing happened when Knight Lanisa passed through it, but as soon as she walked into the rocky passage where no fog appeared, she found a large number of frozen dead northern land wolves.
There were no wounds, just corpses frozen to death in the tunnel. This made her terrified, so she had no choice but to let the horse carry her quickly through the passage full of corpses, to the highest place where Kiel and the others hid their supplies.
She brought the hunters' personal belongings with them, and she didn't care about other food tents and the like. As for the large number of damaged and undamaged metal clips in the passage, she can't take care of them. Anyway, no one haunts here, and she will just bring someone back to pick them up before the winter rains in the spring.
She took everyone's important luggage, including her own, and quickly descended the mountain, where they met at the frozen water pool on the east side of the rocky mountain.
The hunters cut down a tree and made a simple snow cart with branches of suitable thickness, on which the bodies of the two dead companions were placed~www.mtlnovel.com~Let Lanisa Knight’s war horse pull it, luggage Then each carry their own.
They headed south, and it took them five days to get out of the great forest. The old hunter turned his head to look at the vast forest and sea of trees. He shook his head and said that after defeating the wolf king, he would never enter this forest again in his life.
They killed too many northern land wolves this time. Although they had done their duty as hunters, they still killed too many, and everyone felt a little uncomfortable.
The young people are better, including Kiel, who are planning to return to the city after Knight Lanisa, and they will not be rewarded much. Although the old hunters also like money, they are mostly discussing how their respective religions view their crusade against the northern wolf and killed so many lives.
But since the old hunters are not believers, they just believe in the gods in general, so they can't discuss anything. Let the three of them hunt wild animals with their hands, but they are uneducated to discuss beliefs and churches. God, but embarrassing the old three.
Kiel was amused to hear that, and felt that the three old hunters were the mainstay in the battle, but they still had no culture and couldn't say anything, even the young hunters couldn't say anything.
After talking and laughing, everyone saw the wooden sentry tower camp built outside the forest.
Smoke billowed from the tall sentry tower. Contrary to everyone's expectations, the farmers in Wumihu Village boldly built a small camp outside the sentry tower.
Looking from a distance at this moment, in the small camp surrounded by the sentry towers, many skewers of long-eared rabbits are being roasted.
But everyone is not very happy. These days, they are tired of eating barbecue. What they need most now is a hot pot of thick soup made from root plants, and some warm coarse bread to soak in. ,It would be great.
