Chapter 2410 Horn and Scream

"In the chaos, the townspeople surrounded us with weapons. I didn't realize that the situation was wrong until then. I couldn't see the slightest humanity from their ferocious eyes. They were like a group of wild beasts, and their murderous faces showed a strange look. Dark green in colour, with varying shades of woody features appearing on the skin."

"These signs show that they are different from those victims who were completely transformed into plants and fungi by the curse. Although they also have some tree-like features, they still retain the human body and combat power, and their mental level has been weakened to the level of beasts. , treating us outsiders as prey."

"These half-human, half-plant monsters may still have hope of recovering their minds. Unless we have to, we can't bear to kill these victims in the green sea, so we try to cast spells to quiet them down."

"Dolly's 'Laughter Technique', Holden's 'Ecstasy', and Hyrule's 'Human Immobilization Technique' all have no effect on these weirdos. This result proves that they are just humanoid, essentially The supernatural plants that have morphed into immune to enchantment effects - their wounds ooze light green resinous mucus instead of blood, also provide support for this speculation."

"We were forced to have no choice but to take more violent measures to deal with this group of tree monsters. We planned to knock them down first, tie them up, and then try to treat them and find out information."

"At this moment, a low-pitched horn sounded from the town center. The tree monsters seemed to be summoned, and they collectively stopped the battle and quickly retreated to the place where the horn sounded."

"The sound of the horn echoed in our ears, causing the magic net to stir, which made me feel a little dizzy, but I quickly suppressed the discomfort with willpower."

"At this time, I noticed that Holden, Mr. Hyrule and Pinkerton also seemed to be in a trance, and Dolly and Carl were even hypnotized by the mysterious horn, and followed the group of tree monsters in a daze."

"I quickly chased after it, aroused the 'halo of justice' that comes with the holy sword 'Pale Justice', enveloped the parrot and hound in the halo, and suppressed the hypnotic effect of the sound of the horn on them."

"At the same time, Holden has activated the 'Topaz Amulet', and Hyrule has activated the 'Soothing Bracelet' to prevent himself and Mr. Pinkerton from being hypnotized by the horn."

"After a false alarm, we discussed it and guessed that the strange horn sound from Grizzly Town was closely related to the group of half-human, half-plant townspeople. It seems that someone is using a magic horn to remotely control the townspeople."

"In order to unravel the mystery, we started tracking after a short break."

"At this time, the sound of the horn has stopped, but when the townspeople fled, they left a clear enough trace. Mr. Pinkerton and Carl led the way and followed them."

"As we approached the entrance of the town, the footprints disappeared into a bush. We had to stop to look for new clues, but we didn't realize that we had fallen into a carefully arranged trap."

"Mr. Pinkerton was the first to notice a strange tremor coming from the ground under his feet, and quickly reminded us to be careful!"

"Almost at the same time, the mud and sand in the bushes flew up, and many small monsters broke through the ground, screaming and pounced on us."

"These monsters are about three feet tall, and their muddy skin looks dirty. At first glance, they look like young children with deformities. However, their bodies are made of vines, leaves, bark and roots. There is a clump of green stems and leaves on the top, and some monsters have pink trumpet-shaped flowers on their heads, like a group of big radishes that have become fine!"

"Although they are short in size, these monsters are stronger and more ferocious than those tree-like townspeople, and they also have two very annoying special abilities."

"First of all, they are good at burrowing and sneaking. They can move freely in the bushes and mud, and they will be attacked by them if they are not careful."

"What's even more frightening is that these little monsters keep screaming miserably, like a piercing magic sound, causing severe headaches!"

"We were caught off guard by these screaming little monsters. The scene was chaotic for a while. Thanks to Holden's cleverness, he cast the 'Silence Technique' in time to eliminate the piercing screams that filled the battlefield."

"After getting rid of the headache, we quickly stabilized our position and launched a counterattack. We jointly killed more than a dozen little monsters, and the rest were also scared away. They buried their heads in the depths of the soil and escaped without a trace in a blink of an eye."

"The gunshot wound on Holden's shoulder has not yet healed, and Mr. Pinkerton was also seriously injured in this ambush. In addition, everyone's physical strength was exhausted, so we had to suspend exploration and camp in advance to heal and rest."

"It wasn't until the campfire was lit that we found out that Karl the Hound was missing."

"Mr. Pinkerton whistled again and again, but Carl did not respond to the master's call. When I sent this letter, Carl's whereabouts were still unknown."

Finally, Miss Paladin ended the communication with a prayer.

"My lord Pelor! Kind old man of the sun, please bless the loyal Karl to return to his master safely, so that poor Mr. Pinkerton can get rid of his care and anxiety as soon as possible!"

Joan was touched by Audrey's prayer, and couldn't help but worry about the situation of the hound Karl. After a little thought, he took out the "remote viewing mirror" from the storage bag and tried to search for the whereabouts of the hound.

He heard that "Scrying" would be interfered by the mysterious magic power in the green sea, but the "Remote Viewing" enchanted by the magic mirror is a psychic power, so it might be immune to interference.

Unfortunately, it turns out that detection abilities will also be blocked by the green sea barrier, and the mirror cannot be locked on Karl at all.

Putting away the "remote viewing mirror" in disappointment, Joan felt that he hadn't thought carefully. He knew that the green sea that eroded Grizzly Town was so evil, and he should have established "mythical links" with all members of the expedition team one by one.

But having said that, the "mythical link" may not be safe, God knows if it will be cut off by the mysterious power in the green sea.

Carl's disappearance has cast a shadow over the prospect of the expedition. To find Carl, Joan must first figure out how the weird green field around Grizzly Town was created and what secrets it hides.

For this reason, Joan specially sent a letter to Mrs. Josephine.

The countess has broken away from the "primitive order" in name, but she still maintains close contact with some members of the order, including "Green King" Orphen, and it may be possible to inquire about Anahita's identity from her. details.

That night, Joan received a reply letter from Mrs. Josephine. After reading it, she couldn't help being deeply shocked.

This Ms. Anahita is indeed from the "primitive church" as Joan guessed before, and she is the head of the three elders of the "primitive church"!
