Chapter 185: Poisonous Wolf
After half a day of riding on horseback, Su Lun and his party finally arrived at Vic Village, which was Su Lun's target location.
At the entrance of the village, Su Lun jumped off the horse. If he hadn't been practicing riding horses, his body would have fallen apart now.
There was a special person in charge of taking care of the horses, and Gro led everyone to the village of Vic.
"The monster is imprisoned in a stone prison in the village."
Gro led the way, while Ole and a few soldiers were responsible for protecting Su Lun.
The people in the village gathered around when they saw Su Lun and others. Because they had the coat of arms of the earldom on their clothes, the villagers knew that they were the soldiers of the lord.
Su Lun's eyes swept over the faces of the villagers. Each of these villagers was sallow and thin, and only a few of them were normal.
"It's Master Aiden!" Su Lun shouted among the civilians as someone recognized him.
No one knew who Aiden was for the moment, but they soon heard that Aiden was the future heir to the earldom, and everyone immediately looked at Su Lun.
The lord never comes to such a remote place. For the people here, it is a great honor to see the lord.
The soldiers around Su Lun immediately blocked the surrounding people and made way for Su Lun.
Su Lun frowned slightly. Although the people here are enthusiastic, they are also very dangerous. There may be people hiding among the people to assassinate them.
Even if he hasn't offended anyone, there are many people who want to kill him.
Su Lun quickened his pace, but at this moment, a woman in somewhat revealing clothing suddenly passed through the soldiers' interception. The woman fell down in front of Su Lun and screamed in pain.
The woman is different from the common people. She wears clothes made of fine linen. Although it is not very high-end, it is definitely a garment that can only be owned by the upper class in this village.
She fell to the ground with a pitiful look, her clothes on her shoulders were slightly open, revealing a large expanse of white.
She had no intention of getting up, and seemed to want to wait for Su Lun to pull her up, but Su Lun just looked at her coldly.
In Su Lun's powerful perception, the woman in front of him did not carry a weapon and she should not be here for assassination.
Ole directly pulled out his sword and pointed it at the woman on the ground, and said angrily: "Get out of the way right now!"
He could tell at a glance what the woman's purpose was. The woman obviously wanted to use her beauty to attract Su Lun. As long as she could please the nobles, the woman would not have to worry about her future. But it was obvious that her plan was miscalculated. She wasn't interested.
Ole carefully observed Su Lun's expression before drawing his sword, and after confirming that Su Lun was not interested, he drew his sword and drove him away.
Although he is the Knight Steward, he is also very proficient in observing words and emotions, otherwise he would not be able to achieve the position of Knight Steward.
The woman shivered when she saw the sword appearing in front of her, and immediately got up, for fear of upsetting Su Lun.
She couldn't understand why Su Lun was indifferent. From her understanding, most nobles were lustful people.
Su Lun was also a little surprised. The woman was dressed very delicately and had obviously been prepared in advance. The woman knew he would come.
In other words, someone leaked his whereabouts.
He glanced at Ole and Gro. Neither of them could leak the news to such an ordinary woman. The only people who could leak the news were the people in this village. After all, he would definitely inform the people here before coming.
As he expected, someone came out soon.
This man was a little obese, and his eyes kept moving around, similar to the sinister eyebrows recorded in the book.
He said to Su Lun and others: "I am the village chief of Vic Village, and the monster is in the stone prison not far away."
"Then take us there." Su Lun saw that the village chief had been winking at the woman just now, and it was this person who leaked the news.
Village Chief Vic immediately led the way, and the woman quickly backed away and did not dare to approach.
They passed by the center of the village, with Chief Vic walking in front. Ole whispered to Su Lun: "That person had no ill intentions, she just wanted to get close to the young master."
Ole was afraid that Su Lun wouldn't understand, so he explained that he had seen too many such things.
This kind of thing not only happens to nobles, but also to him, the knight chief, who often encounters this kind of thing. If it were normal, he would spend a wonderful night with the woman, but he did not dare to do so in front of Su Lun.
Su Lun just nodded and said nothing. If it were an ordinary noble, the woman just now would have been taken as a lover by the noble. After all, she was quite pretty, but she found the wrong person.
They came to the stone prison in the village. The stone prison was completely made of stone and was very strong. There were soldiers guarding the outside.
Gro explained to Su Lun: "This is a border village in the territory. It is the place with the most thieves. This stone prison was built to hold these prisoners."
The stone prison was originally used to hold prisoners, but now there is an extra monster inside.
Su Lun and others walked into the stone prison, and the sound of the roaring of the monsters kept coming from the passage. The sound was so permeable that the prisoners in the prison huddled in the corner when they heard the sound. This was the suppression of the blood of the monsters.
When Su Lun got closer, he realized that this monster was more powerful than he thought.
The name of the monster is the Poisonous Wolf. Su Lun checked the information about this monster from the book records.
There are a large number of this kind of monsters, distributed on grasslands all over the world. It can be said to be one of the most numerous monsters in the world.
According to records, the poisonous wolf has the blood of the Shadow Realm Demon Wolf. Although there is only a trace of it, relying on this bloodline can give the poisonous wolf abilities beyond ordinary creatures.
The ghost wolf has dark green fur all over its body, and its size is similar to that of an ordinary wolf. You can smell the stench of the ghost wolf from a distance, because the ghost wolf specializes in eating carrion. Even if there is no carrion, it will kill living things and eat them after they rot.
When food is insufficient, the ghost wolf will attack human villages to hunt, and even the army will spend a lot of effort to drive the ghost wolf away.
Su Lun also paid a group of fearless vagrants to catch a ghost wolf, and this ghost wolf looks very young, otherwise it would not be caught by a group of vagrants.
The ghost wolf was imprisoned in an iron prison car, which was very sturdy. The ghost wolf was also covered with scars. These wounds would not threaten its life, but would restrict its movement.
"Hurry up and transport this ghost wolf back." Su Lun asked his men to pull out the prison car containing the ghost wolf.
"Ah!"
The ghost wolf roared, and the sound made everyone a little scared.
This is a demon beast, not an ordinary wild beast. Once it escapes, they will not be able to stop it.
Fortunately, the prisoner cart is specially made to be strong enough, and the ghost poison wolf has injuries, so there is no possibility of escape.
Seeing this, the soldiers were no longer afraid, and they used horses to pull the prisoner cart out of the stone prison.
