The two people raised their noses and smelled it. Sure enough, the smell of blood was quite pungent. . And it has a relatively pure smell of blood. . There is no other flavor mixed with it. . .
This means that there should be no other beasts here to eat the corpse. . . If it is a dead animal. . It will definitely be attracted to some other predators. . These animals will gather together to eat its carcass. . if it is like this. . Then this bloody smell will be mixed with many other smells. . .
"Even so... it might just be a lost animal... Why should we care about it... We still have business to do... Let's move on... Maybe reach Holy Light City earlier. The village will have more hope..." said one of the hunters. .
Although this is true. . . But with his intuition. . He felt that things were not that simple. . . A road that no animal has passed in years. . . Just this time when they set out to ask for help, there will be dead animals here? ? ?
If you don't figure this out. . . I'm afraid he will feel uneasy. . .
So he told the other two people what he thought. . . Since it is the leader's decision. . There is no way. . . But the two of them were also quite curious. . .
So the three people started to follow the smell of blood. . Be careful along the way. . . Almost step by step. . . Don't dare to move quickly. . Don't dare to disperse. . .
As the distance increases. . The smell of blood is getting stronger and stronger. . .
At this time, the person taking the lead. . Step on the snow. . . Suddenly something felt wrong. . . . The snow is all soft and fluffy. . . There will be a creaking sound when you step on it. .
But he kicked it down. . It felt like stepping on mud under my feet. . There is no sound. . And it feels a little sticky. . .
When he stopped and looked down. . Much to his surprise. . . .
I saw that the white snow under my feet was stained red with blood. . . The reason why this happens is because of the blood flowing through it. . The snow here turned into mud. . .
And the blood will become a little sticky after it coagulates. . . It feels like cement. . . .
So he pointed to his feet. . . Alert two companions. . It's getting closer now. . .
The three of them were careful. . . The leading hunter held a bow and arrow, and an arrow was placed on the bow. . If there is any trouble. . He can just draw the bow and shoot the arrow. .
One of the other two men held a stone sword in his hand. . . One held a bone spear in his hand. . . Followed slowly. .
In front is a stone. . . There seemed to be something lying on the stone. . . It looks like it should be a corpse. . . Then the leading hunter took a look. . I found that the blood also flowed out from there. . . So that's the location they're looking for. .
"Just ahead...be careful..." the leader of the hunter said. .
As an experienced hunter. . Naturally, they would not rush over to check without thinking. . . They have enough patience. . It looked like they had been waiting here for almost 20 minutes. . . Didn't feel anything strange. . I didn't feel anything around me. . .
It looks like it should be safe here. . . Maybe it really is a coincidence. . . It just so happened that an animal got lost today. . Then maybe he fell. . Or something like that. . He died here. . .
The three people approached quietly. . The closer it is to here. . They could clearly feel that the smell of blood here was bigger and stronger. .
The smell of blood made them feel a little bit uneasy. . Because they usually kill a lot of animals. . That's pretty much their only source of food. . . But the blood of these animals. . Although it smells like blood. . But it won't taste that strong. . . And the blood in front of them was extremely fishy. . . And the closer it gets, the stickier it feels. . .
As a result, they suddenly discovered it when the three people got closer. . . The figure didn't look like an animal. . On the contrary, he looks like a person! !
So the three people hurried forward and came to the body. .
"Oh my god..."
"this..."
The other two people were already stunned. . . . The person who took the lead frowned and said nothing. . .
The corpse in front of me is not just a person. . . And it's not someone else. . It was the people in their village. . . And this person was the one who led the two people from the first team to Holy Light City for help. . .
I saw him lying on the stone. . . There is a little bit of spider silk on the body. . . There were wounds on the limbs and back. . This wound is round. . deeply. . . It seems that this is what the teeth of beasts can do. . .
It seemed that something unexpected had happened to him. . . . The three people checked it briefly. . . Even though he is dead. . But the Royal Fusiliers Reserve medal he was carrying was missing. . . Moreover, the arrows, throwing knives, and swords he carried were all gone. . Only a longbow remained. . and a broken bone spear. . This bone spear also has some green liquid on it. .
"Look!" One of the hunters pointed forward, and the other two quickly turned their attention. . . They found the woods leading here. . There are two pairs of bloody footprints. . . .
It was obvious that these were the footprints of two people. . . And these two pairs of footprints are going in different directions. . .
But this direction is neither the direction back to the village. . . It's not the direction to Holy Light City either. . . Why did they choose to go this way? ?
At this time, the three people looked serious. . . An inexplicable fear arose spontaneously. . . .
It seems that they have an unknowing plan. . It seems that they have been known to those spiders and monsters for a long time. . . . Otherwise, how could his companion die tragically? . . This scene is too coincidental. .
"I... let's go quickly... don't delay here..." one of the hunters said. .
"Yes... that's right... before they come back... and haven't found us yet... let's go to Holy Light City at full speed to ask for help... otherwise... we will end up like him sooner or later. ..." Another hunter also added.
"No! We can't leave them... They will live and die, and they will see their corpses... And if they are alive... we act together... the chances of winning will be greater... Since they can escape... this means that Maybe we just happened to encounter spiders or ancient snow monsters here... There are very few of them... Even all of them are alone... Otherwise, do you think they can escape?" said the leading hunter. .
"But...our mission..." said one of the hunters. .
"Of course I know our mission... Aren't we three teams... They were the first to set off... We were the last... And we were indeed the first to find his body... which means the second one... This team has not passed here... It should be safe... Maybe they have all left the frozen ice field now... And the only hope for these two people is us... We can't leave them behind..." Take the lead The hunter continued. .
The other two people thought about it and what he said made sense, and the village had been closed all year round. . . . No outsiders came in, and no one from the village left. . So it's not so much a village as it is a big family. . Everyone in the village knows each other.
