our family is gone

Chapter 423 The true purpose of ability

"But why the beast's cave?" Greendale was not someone else. She could still keep up with Lance's thinking, and she could guess from just now that Lance's target was still the beast's cave and not the depths of the wilderness.

"Because the road has not been completed yet, our current strategy for the wilderness has been to encroach. Those sporadic cultists and mutated beasts cannot shake the outpost.

But after interpreting the information brought back from the beast cave, I discovered that the pigs had received funding and transformation from the Ascension Sect many years ago, and their situation was not that simple.

We have to investigate and get rid of them before they even attack us! "

In fact, the reason is very simple. One is to determine the location, and those Diaomao of the Ascension Sect do not have a camp. If Lance wants to plunder a large amount of spirituality, he will definitely choose the beast cave as his target.

"When to set off?"

"Right now, camp at the outpost tonight and go deep into the den tomorrow."

"Ah! So fast?" Greendale was a little surprised. After all, she had made sufficient preparations and arrangements before setting off several times before.

"Because now Hamlet has you here, I, the lord, can finally be lazy." Lance said with a smile.

But hearing such optimistic words made Greendale feel a little distressed.

I'm afraid only people as close as Greendale know how busy Lance is.

After returning from the beast den, the wolf invasion broke out, and then came Bastia, the Roma, leprosy, and cleaning up the mess, building cannons, ships, fleets, and convoys...

It can be said that he has such terrifying energy that he can handle everything that needs to be dealt with in such a short period of time. If it were another person, he would probably die from exhaustion.

But now, because the wilderness is in trouble again, he sets out again.

She had learned about the situation in the beast cave from Boudicca, and it was not a fun place.

"I see."

But Greendale still agreed and took over the responsibility.

"You can put down those potions first. Don't be like that guy Paracelsus who works overtime every day. There are endless things to do, and your health is more important."

Lance is still a little worried, because Greendale has a lot to do, including various potions and herbal medicines, as well as following up on leprosy and developing new potions.

If this plus handling the town's affairs would squeeze her, Lance still wouldn't let it go.

"What about you?" Greendale said in a long-awaited voice, "Can't you just rest for two days?"

Greendale was really distressed and wanted Lance to have a good rest.

"I..." Lance paused for a moment, and I wanted to lie down, but unfortunately my ancestor wouldn't let me...

Sensing Greendale's emotions, she could only smile bitterly and said, "Definitely next time."

Knowing that this was the case, Greendale seemed to have guessed his response, but said nothing more.

Because she also understands the problems Hamlet faces, all she can do is stand by and support him and help him share the burden as much as possible.

I hope I can accompany him to the end...

Lance returned to the lord's mansion and came directly to a room.

"Are you interested in a field trip?"

Alhazred put down the manuscript in his hand, looked at Lance, and said in a slow but solemn tone: "Okay!"

Alhazred joins the team!

Lance turned and shouted outside.

"Boudica! Let's work!"

Soon Boudicca came over carrying an ax gun, with uncontrollable excitement on his face.

"Who will the boss kill this time?"

Boudica joins the team!
Lance gave the two of them some time to prepare, and he came to a single house and knocked on the door.

Soon the door was opened and Lance spoke directly to her.

"Are you interested in meeting the real Hamlet?"

Amanda had just come back for a moment, and was slightly stunned when she heard these words, but then she realized that this was a rare trust from him, and nodded without much hesitation.

"it is good!"

Amanda joins the team!
Soon the team was assembled, got on the carriage and drove towards the wilderness outpost.

And taking advantage of this opportunity, Lance gave them a brief explanation of the mission location, the beast's cave, as well as the details of the mission, as well as the enemies they might encounter in the beast's cave, and their weaknesses.

"Those monsters are twisting and developing on our land and have posed a huge threat to Hamlet. We must eliminate them."

Boudica had been to the beast cave once, so she didn't feel much after hearing this. She just had to kill and kill.

Alhazred had studied the situation in the cave with Lance before, not to mention that he had been to many strange places in his career, so he didn't have much reaction to this trip.

Only Amanda couldn't help but look serious when she heard the description from Lance.

"I have never heard of such a monster in the world!"

Amanda couldn't help but ask questions. The organization has focused on intelligence collection and trading for so many years. She began to learn illustrated books about various monsters in the world when she was very young.

But the combination of pig and human still shocked her greatly because the pig was not weak in intelligence.

"There are still many unknowns in this world waiting for us to explore."

Lance smiled lightly and didn't care.

Amanda didn't ask any questions when she saw this, but she kept thinking in her mind and looked at Alhazred inadvertently.

There are no powerful information channels in this world. Even the Roma people have not completely collected information about the extraordinary people in the world. Only regional legends or world-wide events can be known to others.

For example, Geralt, a master witcher who wanders around the world, has participated in too many commissions. His footprints are everywhere in the world, and there are even bards singing about his deeds.

But what is really well-known is that he lived for an unknown number of years and was blessed by a legend about his resurrection from the dead.

So the only information Alhazred gave Amanda was a name that she had never heard of, and her own identity as a Levantine.There are many supernatural paths that are popular in the Levant, such as magicians, court sorcerers, occult scholars, priests, etc.

So Amanda wasn't sure what was going on with this man, but she could feel the unsettling aura emanating from him, a bit like a warlock.

I even don’t understand why such a person suddenly appeared in Hamlet?

The relationship between extraordinary people has never been very good, and many extraordinary people are even prey of the same kind.

Teaming up with a stranger, a powerful supernatural being who is biased toward evil, is an inexplicable pressure.

This uneasy feeling made Amanda feel uncomfortable with the task, and she habitually drew out a few cards.

It was just that action, or the spiritual fluctuations caused by the divination, that caught Alhazred's eyes, and he couldn't help but speak.

"Don't be too curious or you'll pay the price."

Alhazred's meaning is simple, that is, do not put the target of divination on him.

This word, which was unclear as a warning or a reminder, instantly made the already awkward atmosphere tense.

Amanda held the card for a moment, and her face was full of warning. She said solemnly: "I'm not a child, you don't need to remind me!"

Except for some special circumstances, probably no extraordinary person would be willing to be the subject of divination or other rituals, so generally any veteran with some ability will do some tricks.

A relatively peaceful transcendent may just cover up his traces so that rituals such as divination cannot find him, or he may be on guard.

There are also some extraordinary beings who will set traps to attack or pollute the spirituality of diviners in order to protect themselves.

This situation must be very clear to the Roma people who are proficient in divination, and they also have many methods. For example, when Tamara wanted to attack Lance, she used the crystal ball to deflect the damage.

And Amanda just took out the card and already stated that the object of the divination was herself. She was not a novice who would make such a simple mistake, let alone provoke another transcendent without any reason.

But what this guy said was undoubtedly treating himself as a novice, which was more of a humiliation than a warning.

"Okay, that's not what Alhazred meant." Lance probably also saw that something was wrong between them, and he comforted Amanda before the situation worsened.

He also wanted to complain about Amanda. I'm afraid even Boudicca realized that your scrutinizing gaze on prisoners is like a professional disease. It's great that Alhazred could bear to remind you until now.

It can only be said that colleagues are enemies. One of them is proficient in divination, while the other is proficient in prophecy.

Lance had considered forming this team, because in addition to harvesting the pigs, he also had to conduct an in-depth investigation and study of the development of the pigs and the objects of their worship.

The reason why he brought the two of them was because their abilities could help him find his target in the complex cave.

Fortunately, Lance's suppression still had an effect. Alhazred returned to the state of being silent and concentrating on meditation, while Amanda also focused on her divination results.

What made her feel uneasy was that the results of the divination were not good...

The carriage could only reach the outpost, and the road ahead had not yet been repaired.

The walls that collapsed during the last attack by the cultists have been cleaned and repaired, but work on the outpost is not yet complete.

This place will be expanded and reinforced, completely nailing the cultists' dream of invading Hamlet here.

A large number of laborers were transferred, and there was a steady stream of oxcarts and carriages pulling various building materials on the road.

To be honest, Hamlet was actually a little reluctant to produce a few bricks and knock a few stones, because there were no quarries or brick kilns around.

But it is still a bit of a heritage. The abandoned building ruins that can be seen everywhere around it have been demolished and used.

Not only here, but the entire Hamlet is now relying on cleaning up those ruins to obtain bricks and stones. Otherwise, how could they find so many materials in such a short time to meet the construction requirements?

It's just that Lance and the others didn't come here as overseers. They were led by a soldier to a pit near the outpost that held up an awning.

"Just this morning, soldiers on patrol discovered that a trap was activated, but it was not a cultist, but a very strange beast."

As they said that, they walked towards the trap, and they could feel an unpleasant smell just a little closer. This was very familiar to everyone on the scene, it was the smell of decaying corpses.

"This smell? The condition of the corpse shouldn't be the morning of death." Amanda couldn't help but frowned.

And what she said is indeed a key point, because it stands to reason that even if the weather is sweltering now, but the body was discovered in the morning, and the awning was put up for protection, even if it is corrupt, it should not be at this level.

But no one paid much attention to it, instead focusing on the corpse on the stage.

This is a wild boar that is very common in the wilderness. It is unclear how it broke into this place and was killed by a trap.

But several people quickly discovered something strange on the body.

"It's corruption. This kind of beast is not an ordinary beast at all. Their flesh and blood have mutated." Alhazred discovered the situation with just a glance.

Because the flesh and blood on the wild boar carcass was not in a normal rotten state, but had an irregular tumor, like the red and swollen muscles exposed after peeling off the skin, and the surface was full of irregular and stringy adhesions of various sizes.

The mutation is not very deep, it is only partially corrupted by strange power, but if you look carefully, you can still feel the inexplicable creepiness, which increases the pressure out of thin air.

"Normally, they won't get close to humans. Their appearance here is enough to show that evil forces are desecrating this land, and corruption is spreading and driving them out of their habitats..."

Lance muttered something, but he looked like he didn't care much.

He had roughly guessed something before he came here. He had seen a lot of changes in flesh and blood. In the past, they always appeared on those cultists, but now they are spreading and he doesn't know whether they are intentional or unintentional?What kind of method is this?I don’t know what the ancestor is planning...

There weren't many clues about a rotting corpse. After a few people observed it, Lance raised his hand to initiate the sacrifice. The power of the void instantly devoured the rotting corpse, and some spiritual light returned to his body.

This scene made Boudica feel nothing, but the other two people had a strong impact.

The instant spell ritual, the terrifying ritual effect, and no unnecessary spiritual energy escaping made them feel the power of Lance even more.

The two of them seemed to have their own thoughts, but neither of them had the intention to speak. They still had a lot to learn about Hamlet's secrets.

Suddenly Lance looked at Alhazred with a smile, "I want to find the location of those cultists."

Lance needs to use his ability to see evil corruption, and he can rely on the short breath leaked by the bald wizard to track thousands of miles to Hamlet. He should also be able to feel those cultists corrupted by flesh and blood.

"Okay, I can feel the evil in this wilderness." When Alhazred said this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, as if he didn't expect that the corruption would be so serious.

"Okay." Lance nodded with satisfaction.
