Chapter 227 Alice's unique ability

The village of Furhara is located on the top of the mountain and is not a prosperous village.

It is precisely because of its primitive, harsh environment, and easy to train warriors, that it was chosen to be the place for the Swabro Sect to build temples.

After being attacked by the Skeligers here, the village of Furhara has now completely turned into a ruin. There are no complete walls in the village, only ruins.

Facing the gray-black sky, the shadows of the ruined villages are hidden in dusk. The afterglow of the sunset shines on the desolate ground, rendering in the hard cover. The only thing that makes people feel vitality and life is the sound of the wind falling silently between the cliffs.

However, in the eyes of the witch hunter, the desolate ruins showed something else.

Three pairs of amber and a pair of dark gold eyes sparkle.

All pheromones in the surrounding environment are transformed into visible visual factors through synesthesia and presented to everyone.

It was obviously just a ruin, but Lan and his group seemed to see the crowds passing by frequently—

"The smell of inferior beer, half-cooked barbecue, and bad breath." Kogrim tapped a pile of bonfires left with only fragments. "Which homeless man should be looking for shelter."

"The fragrance of pine wood, malt bread, and the dry wood on the ground have traces of axe chopping." Cohen stroked a layer of steps that were obviously cleaner than the surroundings, "they were the mountain people passing by here to rest."

"But none of these are our goals." Lane concluded with a shake of his head.

Lann has few discoveries. When it comes to these reconnaissance methods, he is really not as good as these old demon hunters who have been used to hunting alone for decades.

"Ged, have you found anything?"

Lann's voice came out, but received no response.

From afar, he saw a bear-like man and a white wolf gathering together, looking at a dark ground.

Seeing that they seemed to have noticed, Lane also came over.

"This is blood." Geralt pointed to the black marks on the ground, "It has been a few days, and there should be more than one person here at that time, and a battle broke out."

In response to Geralt's explanation, Gede picked up a piece of clothing from the ground: "This is a leather jacket tanned by wolf leather. It is very tough and even harder to cut with a knife. Although it is not as good as specially processed leather armor, it cannot be easily torn apart."

Lann took it thoughtfully, looking around with dark golden eyes: "But it does look torn to pieces, and if it is really that strong, there is only one explanation-"

"It's a beast, or a monster with sharp claws like ghouls."

Ged took a deep breath, looked at the red information factor of varying shades around him, and added: "But there is no body odor of any beasts around you - unless this is a beast that pays special attention to cleanliness, have you thought of anything?"

The answer is very obvious.

Lann showed an excited look and said firmly: "Velka Berserker!"

When Lane stopped the giant bears at the banquet, he felt something. The giant bears transformed by the berserkers were much cleaner than real wild bears.

After all, no matter how ignorant a person is, he is still a sloppy beast who does not have the concept of "washing". This is the biggest difference between a berserker and a real wild bear.

Gede, who was fighting a giant bear on the scene, was obviously a person who knew this.

He quickly looked at the traces around him for useful information.

"There are more than one person on the scene, and a small battle broke out here. But the traces of the battle were very restrained, only a small amount...well, medium amount of blood."

Ged analyzed, "No one died, at least not here on the spot. Based on the traces here, perhaps we can find the people who were fighting against the Velka Berserkers at that time."

This analysis makes sense.

The witch hunters immediately gathered together and began to record nearby pheromones.

"There are signs of people running away here." Kogrim suddenly made a new discovery, pointing in a direction, "It's there!"

The ground was covered with a thick layer of gray, but Lann's lion's pupil could see dark red light spots marking a path on the ground.

Time has passed and the traces are about to disappear, but it will not be wrong - this is the trace of blood.

A vague figure appeared in front of Lan's eyes in a trance:

[He was a mountain citizen, and his companions came here for some reason, but ended up encountering the berserker of Verka.

The human body turned into a giant bear in front of him, causing riots. He was injured in panic, so he left his companions and fled here, hoping to find some protection in this ruined wall...]

Lane followed the transparent figure all the way forward until he watched him disappear into a building.

In front of you is the most central temple in the village, a temple built by the Verka people for the evil god Swabro.

It is also the most sturdy building in the entire village, and it was built by the most powerful warriors carrying the strongest stones in the mountains. Therefore, it was only possible to barely preserve the next outline under the attack of the Skeligers. It would not be like other buildings in the village, with only two or three walls left at most.

The target everyone is looking for is inside.

Ged was about to rush inside, but suddenly Lane grabbed him.

"What's wrong?"

"For some reason, I am particularly sensitive to the existence of demon spirits." Lanen pulled out the Lake Girl Sword with his right hand and made a magic seal with his left hand. "I have a companion from the Cat Sect who also has similar abilities. I can introduce it to you afterwards."

"What does ya mean...there is a demon spirit inside?"

When Gede heard this, he stopped immediately and looked inside along the hole in the temple wall.

At this time, it was about to night, and the remaining light barely allows people to see the irregular stones scattered everywhere in the temple. The dilapidated stone pillars stood in place, and the roof that needed it to support had long collapsed.

There is no light in more places, only gloomy darkness can be seen.

This is indeed very similar to a venue where you will encounter demon spirits from corners.

Lanen squatted down slightly, trying to cast a magic seal that could cover the entire temple; the demon hunters behind him also drew out various silver swords, preparing to apply the [Ghost Spirit Oil] to their long swords specifically to restrain these illusory monsters.

However, at this moment, the black magic scimitar behind Lane suddenly lit up.

The soul in the painting, wearing a plain Gothic black dress, showed shape in this dilapidated village on the top of the mountain. Her hands were folded in front of her lower abdomen, covering her face with a black veil and her temperament was empty.

And her gentle voice seemed to be emitting a faint fragrance: "Let me do it."

As the words came, bright jade-colored flames wrapped her body; the next second, something seemed to light up in the ruined temple.

Behind Lann, Gued was stunned.

The bear witch hunter covered his trembling badge, looked at the black magic scimitar behind Lane, and then looked at the ruins of the temple, without knowing where to point.

"Just... that was a demon spirit? No, it seems very different. No matter what kind of demon spirit it is, it will not be so beautiful."

"That's not a demon spirit." Lane pointed out the mistake in Gued's language very seriously. "It's a 'soul', a beautiful existence left in the world by strong emotional connections. Don't compare the name of that monster to her."

Ged shrank his fingers: "Why are you so angry... I know that's it."

...

Lane was not worried about Alice's combat effectiveness at all.

Among all the minions, Alice has the highest comprehensive basic attributes. She even masters a large number of advanced skills and Lane's talent that still doesn't know how to play a role [Tung].

Especially now, the enemies inside are still demon spirits. Alice, who is the unique [soul in the painting], will not be too obvious in suppression.

However, even though Lane had already overestimated Alice in his heart, the scene inside still surprised him after he entered the temple.

...

If someone finds a way to bury the flames into the nephrite, the light emitted must be what it looks like in the temple now.

Alice stood in the center of the temple hall, emitting a warm emerald light all over her body; four ghosts crawled at her feet, and the lanterns burning with faint green flames were thrown aside by them.

Lan En could still feel the emotions from those evil spirits at this moment: there was fear, reverence, and a trace of unattainable longing and shame.

Alice faced these demon spirits, and she maintained a dignified expression on her face, and she didn't smile until she saw Lane come in.

The emerald light inside the house is softer.

She pointed to the demon spirit that buried her head the lowest and said, "It is the islander you are looking for whom the giant bear attacked - or, it is 'used to be an islander'."

Lann looked around quickly, and there were several skeletons in the corner of the temple, the freshest of which happened to match the pheromones he remembered in the senses of the witch hunter.

It's it.

Alice continued: "Its memory is very vague, I only remember to come to the village of Furhara with my companions. As for why and how it came, I can't remember it clearly."

"The clearest memory is only a giant bear. Then he ran here in a hurry, hoping to hide for the time being, but was killed by the demon spirit here."

In addition to this demon spirit, four demon spirits crawled beside Alice, their colors are deeper and obviously older.

They should be some of the priests who died in the attack of the Skelligers. Because they were resentful, they turned into demon spirits.

The islanders Lann and his friends were looking for obviously joined them after their death.

"This kind of information is not enough to help us find the Verka people." Lann pointed to the demon spirits who have been around for a long time. "Since they were all people from the temple before, can they ask them? Maybe it's enough to give us some information?"

Alice shook her head: "The demon spirit itself was caused by the failure to dissipate resentment and hatred. Even if there was any mentality, it would not be too clear. Especially those who had died for a long time were no longer different from wild animals."

Alice stretched out her slender and hazy finger and pointed at the demon spirit transformed by the islander: "It is the only one who can barely communicate with people now."

As if he felt Alice's distress, the demon spirit on the ground suddenly moved.

Immediately afterwards, the faint green flame on its body became more solid.

Alice raised her jaw slightly, closed her eyes and seemed to be listening to something. After a while, she said to Lane: "It said that she had forgotten everything else, but the village she was born in could not forget. We can go there and see if its companions had successfully escaped, maybe we could find it and learn more about the matter at that time."

Lann showed a surprise look: "What is the name of that village?"
