Beasts start from stone

"But until one day, those alchemists gathered people."

"They even used a total of four strong men, one to delay me, and the other three to surround her, trying desperately to cut off her wings.

"After all, it was a monster of the same level as me. I didn't arrive in time to help her, and the result..."

Bolton lowered his voice, and under the dim light of the kerosene lamp, his expression was full of mystery.

"Mr. Burton, is she injured?"

Hazel nervously held her fingers, she was full of worries about this young lady she had not yet met.

Xiao Ruoruo stared at Hazel with a strange expression. It was obviously not related at all, but this guy didn't hide his feelings at all.

"That's not true. She actually killed all three alchemists who besieged her. According to the Queen's law, it was considered a legitimate defense. But after that, the townspeople became more and more alienated from her."

"After killing three alchemists, she found three alchemy notebooks from the alchemists' bodies, and even made her own alchemy tool - she named the tool Three Sounds of Conch."

"Once someone calls her name three times in a row, she will know it, and even everything that happened to that person today will be known. That's why I never say the name."

Hazel nodded calmly. This way of preventing others from talking about her was too powerful.

"So what's her name?"

With the early warning, Hazel felt that she would not make such a small mistake.

"Ow."

"Her name is Jennifer."

"Kri."

"Nan Nan."

"Jennifer? It sounds like a very charming name."

With the forewarning, the three monsters subconsciously felt that they would not make a mistake, so they all repeated her name.

"Ow."

Hazel and Xiao Ruoruo, you two go and have a rest. How about Alger and I keeping watch.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Hazel did not reject Bolton's kindness, and pulled Xiao Ruoruo to lie on the bed and closed her eyes.

Alger followed Bolton out of the wooden house. He originally thought that he would be greeted by a sky full of stars, but why was the sky in Yiguo like this?

This was the most terrifying scene Alger had ever encountered. Except for the phosphorus fire in his eyes, everything was dark around him, and even the moon could not be seen.

Unlike the brightly lit modern cities, there is nothing in the forests of Boi.

Alger tried his best to open his eyes and mouth, trying to use his own light to brighten the surroundings.

The blue flame of the blue fire pumpkin can shine very brightly, otherwise it would not create a legend in the country of Boi.

But in Alger's eyes, except for a few lights underground, the surroundings were all dark and chaotic.

He felt that he was not in a forest, but in the legendary underground kingdom guarded by three evil dogs.

The complete blackness confused Alger's senses and almost swallowed three balls of flame. He suddenly lost his sense of direction and his body began to stagger.

In the darkness, he seemed to hear some monster walking towards him, making a hissing sound.

A strong arm grabbed Alger's candle and lifted him up.

"Ow?"

"What, are you afraid of the dark, kid?"

Although they are both strong men, Bolton can judge Alger's age from the maturity of the pumpkin aroma emanating from him.

It is normal for such a young child to be afraid of the dark.

"Nan Nan."

"It's just that in our country, there are lights at night. I have never seen such a deep night."

"Ow~"

"How much lamp oil do you need to burn? Boy, if what you are telling the truth is true, I would like to take a look."

"Nan Nan."

...a good night's sleep.

……

The next day, the deep forest revealed a little veil.

The white mist gradually dissipated, leaving only a little silver lingering around the branches.

Under Bolton's guidance, everyone saw an animal trail.

The beast path is not an asphalt road, nor is it a gravel road. It is a dirt road that has been compacted by monsters repeatedly trampling on it.

Hazel's brain instinctively analyzed the traces on the dirt road.

Aside from some low-level monsters passing by, there are only traces of Bolton on this beast trail.

"Boton, why don't you drop by to meet your friends?"

Out of good intentions, Hazel extended an invitation to him, but Bolton declined:
"Ow."

"Just go straight towards this dirt road. I'll go back and catch up on some sleep first."

“Jennifer’s cabin is very unique, you will be able to see it at a glance.”

"But even if I mention my name, she won't be able to give you a discount. Try to find a way to get Jinnia to please her."

Hazel was a little reluctant to leave Bolton, but she always felt that there were more important things waiting for her.

The most important thing at the moment is to get the map of Boi and go to the royal city to find a way home.

"Thank you."

"Ow~"

Bolton waved his paws and walked towards his house without looking back, but what he was thinking in his heart was:

("Ouch")
("If the young lady is left here again, I will probably be tamed by her and become her knight.)
Hazel wiped her tears and stepped onto the beast path.

"Alger, Xiao Ruoruo, let's go."

"Kerry~"

"Nan Nan~"

At this time, the country of Boi had not experienced any development, and there was not even a street sign.

Fortunately, there was only one animal path that Bolton took. It didn't take long for the three of them to see what seemed to be a small town.

It's said to be a small town, but in fact it's just a matter of pulling some branches from the trees to make a basket and hanging it on the tree. Bolton's simple wooden house looks like a mansion here.

Without any need to search, they saw a cave entrance connected by a black stone path.

"That should be Jennifer's store."

"Nan Nan~"

Alger nodded, his out-of-place look indeed seemed like Bolton's description.

Beside the black stone path, there were three piles of broken stones placed randomly, like broken statues.

They were so broken that even Hazel couldn't identify what kind of monster they were.

What's even more weird is that the broken parts of these three statues still have lifelike pieces of flesh, bones, and blood vessels.

Hazel swallowed, this Miss Jennifer's hobbies are quite unique.

However, in order to get the map, we can only move forward.

What was unexpected was that as soon as Hazel stepped onto the black stone path, the black stones were rolling in place as if they had come alive.

"Nannan?"

How could Alger let Hazel take risks alone and step on the black stone path.

"Kri?"

Seeing this strange scene, Xiao Ruoruo dared not step on the black stone, and there was no guarantee that the half-buried statues around him might have any mechanism.

Fortunately, she has wings.
