Othua's War Banner

Chapter 81 0081: Arrest?
Ken is not superstitious.

Every bit of desolation and cruelty in the northern border has been tasted by the people living here. Ancient legends and firm beliefs cannot save children from bad luck, nor can they restore the destroyed homes of refugees.

Before he could understand the revelation of the dream, there was the sound of horseshoes outside the tent. Except for the wolf king, beasts were not allowed to approach the leader's residence.

The hurried footsteps showed that the matter was very important.

The curtain was thrown back by fishermen.

He was drenched by the freezing rain, his lips were blue, and he was extremely excited when he saw Ken.

"I found it," he said. "The seeds of Nitalie!"

A long time ago, there was a tree in Palotus. It is said that it covered the sky and the sun, and under the canopy supported the only spring in the northern border.

Karachi ate away at the roots of the giant tree.

The old gods cut down half of its torso and made it into a wooden coffin, which was dragged into the [Ocean of Reincarnation] by sea beasts, sealing the source of the mystery in the dark seabed forever.

In the subsequent dwarf era, the snow spirits who have not yet disappeared called the giant tree "Nidaly".

The implication is "a person who breeds unnatural life."

The other half of the giant tree was cut down during this period.

The logging project started from the first generation of dwarf emperors, and did not end until "Sirdrin" came to the throne.

[Nidaly] is as solid as a rock, even the years cannot shake it.

The dwarves are proud of conquering the giant tree, which has been passed down from generation to generation, and they have used the giant tree as a skeleton to build the most far-reaching buildings on the Usua continent.

"Yes, you guessed it."

The tamer dug up a pile of dirt, and took a breath before finishing the story.

"That building is, huh, the landmark of Palotusby, the Permafrost Wall."

Here is the plain far away from the plain of Kee Village, the lower reaches of the Lubek River, and the Hela are preparing for a strange hunt.

The patter of freezing rain was a headache.

Ken did it himself, digging holes with his troops.

According to fishermen, this is a necessary component of the trap.

Langz stood at the bottom of the pit, and the big hole could completely accommodate the giant son. Even if he didn't squat down or bow his head, as long as the observer moved a few steps away, he still couldn't see his head.

The quagmire was extremely muddy, and the accumulated water submerged Lowndes' calf.

Everyone worked together to drag it out, and then collectively huddled in the temporary shelter to enjoy the fire.
The Gadfly doctor prepared several bottles of antifreeze medicine.

Some people accept, some refuse, and some take out winter grass wine to share with each other.

Fishermen poured two bags of viscous paste into the pit.

"what is this?"

asked Lowndes.

"The secret medicine made from fish oil. Look, this is an ocean. Hey, don't get too close. If you fall into it, you will drown."

Someone in the line laughed.

They dug the soil hole with their own hands. They know the root and the bottom. It is a miracle that they can sprain their ankles. How could it be fatal?
【Trap-Mud Vortex】

[The deep pit where the magic ripples come out, the guy who falls into it will fall into chaos, as if he is in the bottom of the sea, it is extremely difficult to escape, and eventually he will be trapped to death. 】

"He was right."

Ken sounded a warning.

No one had ever seen the employer make a joke, so everyone stopped laughing and realized the danger.

The physical work is done, and the next step is to wait.

Quema touched the beast tamer and asked about the story just now: "Nidaly's torso was cut off, where did the roots and stake go?"

"Everywhere, stone spirits, monsters, and giant beasts can all be said to be part of it."

Kuima smiled but didn't answer, but in his heart he believed that the other party was talking nonsense.

Many legends in the northern border are fabricated. When the bonfire is set up, the old men in the hunting team can tell a few mysterious stories.

The rain no longer falls.

But the clouds were low, indicating that things were not over yet. Sure enough, a cold wind blew up again in an instant, and palm-sized snowflakes were blown up and flying all over the sky.

"The timing is just right, no one is allowed to move anymore."

The fisherman called out.

He pried open another clay pot, and a suffocating stench wafted out instantly. There were worms on top of the rotten and greasy fish.

Ken stood at the upper air outlet, and the strange smell began to spread, and it could be smelled by people ten arrows away in an instant.

"You can't find this kind of bait in the whole Columbona!"

Lowndes twisted his nose and complained.

"This is not our bait."

The fisherman answered casually, kept looking around, and finally saw what he wanted.

A bush squirmed.

After testing the surrounding environment, it suddenly grew spider-like multi-legs, crawled quickly and ran towards the clay pot.

【Pliers flower】

[It is a rare monster in the northern region. It lives by digesting the stumps of animals. It can be regarded as an active scavenger. 】

Ken saw the thing fiddle with the container with its trunk-like claws.

Smelly fish are popular with carrion-eating monsters, and their strong smell can easily seduce hungry guys.

Someone in Heila started to think about it.

"God, this flower-like mouth is disgusting, hiss, it can still stick out, I'm about to vomit, Mother Winter bless, don't make this damn sucking sound again!"

Tonghua is eating in the rudest way possible.

Many people tried their best to keep their throats calm while turning away.

Snowflakes formed a white gauze curtain, the sky was gloomy, windy and rainy, no one would rush to leave the nest at such a time.

The scene in the distance became more hazy, but more obvious ripples came from a distance, superimposed in waves until the end.Even [Lontz], who is the least sensitive to magic, noticed something strange.

"Splash the blood of the beast on your body."

The fisherman said to the giant with a very urgent tone, as if the prey was about to appear.

Langz followed suit swiftly. Hunting continued on the migration road, and a few barrels of fresh animal blood were nothing rare.

He couldn't help muttering:
"Didn't you come here to catch rocks? So far, what you've done seems to have nothing to do with it."

Hush

Ken raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and something slowly approached in the haze.

Embedded in the ground, it pushed forward soundlessly, gravel and moss out of the way.

"That's all?"

Lowndes couldn't believe it.

Everyone braved the rain to deal with such an ordinary prey?

The thing he was talking about was an ordinary rock, which looked no different from any piece of [Kopi Rock] on the frozen soil.

There is nothing special about it except that it squirms slowly.

Bang!
A huge collision sound erupted in front of their eyes—the pincer flower turned into a meat paste in the blink of an eye, like a bedbug that was slapped to death, the slurry and broken shell were all its remains.

They blinked their eyes, and saw...

An ordinary stone.

The Heras all shut up and backed away.

This elusive extreme speed and desperate impact force are simply like a siege crossbow full of winches.

"Fula melon..."

Lanz cursed a few words in local language.

Afterwards, he was surprised to find that he was the only one who obediently smeared the beast blood. A certain premonition floated in his head. Before he could figure it out, he saw his companions turn around and stare at him.

Everyone seemed to be looking at a corpse.

"You bastards!"

　Things have been too messy recently. Last night, I worked overtime until after 11 o'clock and didn't come back. I turned on the computer to rewrite and rewrite. I didn't expect to go through the night, wash my face, rest for a while, and go to work.

　　I hope you don't die suddenly, and I hope you don't work overtime on weekends and can rest normally!

　　Let's post a chapter first, I don't have the energy to change it later.
