Chapter 472 Mutation
After dinner, Herag stayed in a spacious house in the villa with Jim, drinking hot tea and chatting.
Outside, the cold wind was howling and snow was flying.
The door was tightly closed, and the biting cold wind would rush in if there was a slight gap.
The fire in the fireplace was burning fiercely. Herag checked the structure of the fireplace to make sure that there was no problem with the smoke exhaust channel.
Herag picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of boiling black tea, added two sugar cubes, and stirred it with a spoon.
He stirred it, and the sugar cubes melted instantly. He tried to drink a sip, which was a bit hot.
Herag put down the cup of black tea and asked, "Anyway, I have nothing to do now. Can you tell me about the extraterritorial demons? I am more interested in what traces you found here."
Herag's behavior is also a very normal thing. Normal people will definitely be curious when they learn about the extraterritorial demons.
Jim said, "I don't know much, Lord Arios just said they are from another world and are very powerful. The reason we came here is because they found a dead winged demon in the Ulster Mountains."
"Winged demon?" Herag knew very little about the monsters in this world and had never heard of this kind of monster.
Jim also knew that Herag was from another place, and explained, "The winged demon is a high-level monster with strong power. After the people guarding the mountain in the villa found it, they immediately reported it to Amy City."
"The body of the winged demon was sent to Amy City. Lord Arios personally checked the body of the winged demon and found some abnormalities."
Herag looked puzzled, but did not interrupt Jim's story. Instead, he took a sip of the black tea and continued to listen.
Jim continued, "Lord Arios said that there were several wounds on the body of the winged demon, all of which were caused by some energy-type attacks, which are very similar to those of the outer demons."
"Can we judge it based on this alone? Maybe it was other monsters, or exorcists with special abilities, both are possible." Herag said.
Jim said, "I think so too, but Lord Arios thinks it might be an outer demon. He attaches great importance to the matter of the outer demon, and he must find out even if there is only a slight possibility."
Herag nodded, drank black tea, stared at the fireplace and pondered.
After the two chatted for a while, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Herag lit the fireplace in the room and added some firewood, and the room gradually became warmer.
He lay on the bed and sorted out recent events, then entered a meditative state and began to meditate.
About two hours later, Herag suddenly felt a little cold.
He was a little strange. Even if the fire in the fireplace went out, he should not feel cold with his physical fitness.
What's more, he was still lying in the quilt, so there was no reason to feel cold.
Herag opened his eyes and sat up, and found that the house was pitch black, and the fire in the fireplace had long been extinguished.
He looked at the environment in the house and soon noticed something unusual.
There was a lot of ash on the ground and on the quilt.
When Herag stood up, he raised a cloud of dust, and it looked like he had been lying on this bed for hundreds of years.
He then equipped the Storm Shield, drew his sword, and looked around vigilantly.
The scene in front of him made Herag feel a little familiar. When he went to the Abyss Plane through the plane coordinates, a similar thing happened, and the scene was very similar.
The only difference was that there was no breath of the Abyss Plane here, so it can be concluded that he had not come to the Abyss Plane.
Herag looked at his left hand, and the plane coordinate state was also normal and not activated.
Faced with this unknown situation, he began to be more cautious.
Herag launched a deep blue environmental detection, covering the surroundings.
The general terrain of the entire small mountain village has not changed, and it looks exactly the same as usual.
The only difference is that there is no one in other rooms.
He is the only one left here.
"Is this teleportation? When did it happen?"
Herag observed the scenes around him for a while, and felt that he was teleported to a certain place.
Although he was in a meditative state just now, his mind was highly concentrated, and he did not perceive anything unusual happening around him.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Suddenly, there was a rapid knock at the door, breaking the dead silence here.
Herag turned his head and looked, but did not approach the door.
Because he saw through environmental detection that the outside of the door was empty and there was no one.
"Evil spirit?"
Herag quickly thought of this possibility, and then used the necromancy spell, the dead perception.
This spell can sense and see the spirits around.
Herag looked around and did not find the existence of spirits.
He then took out a necklace worn around his neck, the soul-eating crystal.
The Soul Devouring Crystal was a magic item bought from Ms. Moran, which can purify the remaining evil thoughts in the body.
Herag always wears it on his body. It is said that if there are evil spirits around, the Soul Devouring Crystal will turn red, and it will even heat up when encountering particularly powerful evil spirits.
He has never encountered such an evil spirit so far.
At this moment, the Soul Devouring Crystal is normal and has no reaction. Herag can't help but wonder if Ms. Moran is selling a fake.
Herag observed for a while and put the necklace back, looking at the door.
The knocking sound outside the door continued, but the rhythm was sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
Herag naturally couldn't open the door, he was ready to see what would happen next.
The knocking sound continued intermittently for about half an hour, and suddenly stopped.
When the knocking sound suddenly stopped, the whole world seemed very quiet, as silent as death.
Herag stared at the door closely, he always felt that there was something standing behind the door, although he couldn't see it, but it existed.
Bang!
The door suddenly exploded, countless wood chips splashed out, hit Herag's absolute defense shield and fell to the ground.
The house was filled with smoke and dust, which seriously obstructed the view.
Herag saw a humanoid creature about two meters tall standing at the door, with strong limbs, obviously bulging muscles, but a very thin waist, and the whole person looked very slender.
This humanoid creature had no hair, instead, tentacles were floating irregularly in the air.
"One-eyed..."
After the dust cleared, the creature's appearance was fully revealed in front of Herag.
It had only one huge single eye and a mouth full of sharp teeth, with several rows of teeth, like a shark.
Herag looked down and saw that the creature's two feet looked like two sharp knives, shining with a cold light. (End of this chapter)
