Chapter 283: Host of ‘Gluttony’
Qin Weijie and Tom were not aware of what happened after that village.
As for the old woman who was turned into a ghost by Tom, the two did not subdue or destroy her, but left her near the village. After all, it was a chaotic world and the village needed someone to protect it.
However, before they left, they still set some rules for the old woman, which was nothing more than not hurting innocent people, not sucking blood, etc. Because of the nourishment of part of the power of the god of death, the old woman could basically restrain her bloodthirsty desire. Except for the lack of life, the old woman was no different from ordinary people, and the hideous wounds on her body were also repaired by Qin Weijie and Tom.
It was strange to say that before the two left, they had to place a mirror in front of each house for some reason. Some were hung on the windows, some were hung on the door frames, and some were directly placed on the roof. What's more, even the trees in the woods not far from the village were tied with mirrors.
After doing all this, the two followed Bruno to Dunkirk.
However, what the two did not know was that not long after they left, a group of medieval cavalry arrived here. This group of cavalry wore heavy armor, rode tall horses, and held lances or giant swords. There was also a fat man tied in the group. From the outfit, it was obvious that they were members of the Knights of the Round Table.
When the knights of the Round Table approached the village, the undead old woman sensed something. Because she had become an undead, she had an extremely keen perception of magic. Therefore, when encountering this situation, the undead old woman knew that she was not an opponent and fled far away.
Besides, this group of round table knights tied a fat man with ropes behind them. The fat man kept cursing and swearing all the way, but these cavalrymen were completely unaware. They just tied the fat man's hands with hemp ropes and hung him at the end of the team.
"What the hell are you bastards doing!? Why are you arresting me!? I want to go back to school, Professor Slughorn will definitely come to save me! You'd better let me go, otherwise the teachers at Hogwarts won't let you go!"
"Shut up! Evil creature! As the host of 'Gluttony', you must go back with us!" The leading knight shouted angrily, pulling the fat man towards the village.
"What the hell is 'Gluttony', I don't know what you are talking about! Can't I just eat a little? I ate your rice!? Let me go, you bastards! Shit..."
The leading knight's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, and then he waved his hand and cast a magic that silenced people, and the fat man immediately lost his voice, and he opened his mouth but couldn't make any sound.
"Captain, the clues we have collected along the way show that the child from the Fuli family walked in this direction..."
"Go ask the villagers in this village!"
Soon, a knight came out with a lame man. The leading knight asked, "Have you seen two boys aged twelve or thirteen? One has black hair and yellow skin and one eye is heterochromatic, and his appearance has oriental characteristics."
The lame man was Kuro, the villager who took in Qin Weijie and Tom the night before. Kuro saw this group of people asking about the two magical boys, and then looked at the fat boy whose hands were tied by them, frowned slightly and said coldly:
"I haven't seen it! Recently, only a few teams of German and coalition forces have passed through this place..."
The leading knight sniffed and sniffed Sniffed: "It smells very bloody. What's going on?"
"Last night, a coalition team came and happened to run into the German army on a raid. Many people died in the melee between the two sides..."
"Where are the bodies?"
"We burned them. It's almost summer and the bodies are rotting fast. We are afraid of an epidemic."
The leading knight frowned slightly, and the guard beside him said: "Captain, I sense the breath of black magic, the smell of death..."
The leading knight looked at Kuro with a bad face: "You are lying, there is clearly a residual breath of magic here!"
"What magic? I don't understand what you are talking about at all?"
"Don't know whether to live or die, Legilimency!" The leading knight's face was slightly cold, and then he cast a magic to forcibly read Kuro's memory.
However, what surprised him was that this seemingly ordinary villager was immune to his "Legitimate Mindfulness", and he could not read any useful information from him.
At this moment, a golden talisman suddenly appeared between Kuro's eyebrows, and the next second the talisman suddenly exploded and turned into golden light.
The next second, the golden light slowly gathered into a human face. It was Qin Weijie's face.
Qin Weijie, who was gathering golden light, made a few faces at the leading knight, and then spit directly on the face of the leading knight.
"Lululu~ I knew you were going to catch me... Hehe, come and catch me, idiot! I said I won't go to that useless royal court... If you have the guts, bite me!"
Pah
The next second, the golden head disappeared, and the leading knight's face turned the color of liver.
At this time, the fat man tied behind the knights was excited, laughing but couldn't make a sound. From the shape of his mouth, it can be vaguely felt that the fat man seemed to be calling "President", but it is unclear what he said.
...
At the same time, in the wheat field 20 miles away from here, three figures, one big and two small, were wandering in the unripe wheat field, walking all the way north.
"Hey, I told you to keep a low profile and not be too high-profile. We finally got rid of that group of paranoid knights, but now we've been discovered..." Qin Weijie looked at a mirror in his hand and scratched his head helplessly.
This mirror was made by Qin Weijie using 'mirror magic'... The principle is a bit complicated to explain, but in simple terms it is a real-time monitoring. After marking the fixed points, the content of Hua Mina presented in the mirror at the marked points will be synchronized to this mirror, just like watching a movie.
Tom looked innocent: "Blame me? I just used the flute to wake up the old woman, and I just wanted to scare her. You directly injected the 'power of death' into the old woman's body, and even used the 'wind whisper spell' to block the soldiers' route of action. Without the catalysis of the 'power of death', how could the old woman kill so many people!!"
"Oh? Is that the case? It's not you who did it, what does it have to do with my beloved Weijie!?" Qin Weijie shamelessly pretended to be confused.
Tom looked at Qin Weijie helplessly. I don't know why there are always seven days a week when he wants to strangle Qin Weijie!
"How long will it take them to catch up?" Tom asked.
"It's estimated that half an hour if they walk fast, but..."
Tom smiled bitterly and glanced at Qin Weijie: "But if they enter the maze you and I set up, they will probably be trapped for a while... I'm asking how long it will take them to catch up with us after entering the maze?"
"Yeah, at least two days! Hehe... I'm serious about playing dirty! You're not fair to normal people!"
"I always feel that if what we experienced was like that, we would definitely be the big villain, the big devil!" Tom muttered in his heart and said no more.
At this moment, Qin Weijie, who was looking down at the picture transmitted from the mirror, suddenly changed his face and looked a little more serious.
Tom noticed that Qin Weijie was not right, and stepped forward to ask: "What's wrong? Is there any problem? Did those guys attack the villagers? It is said that the Knights of the Round Table will not hurt ordinary people!"
"Hey, look for yourself!" Qin Weijie handed the mirror to Tom.
Tom took the mirror and immediately exclaimed, "Senior Buck? Why is he being helped by the Knights of the Round Table!?"
