My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu

Chapter 94 Kalam’s Fate
The strong men who cut the wood lined up with rice bowls, and Del served them soup with wooden spoons in turn. The scene was full of noisy gags.

On a simple wooden stand next to the steaming rice pot, there were two large wooden basins filled with rye bran bread without sawdust. This was a filling meal.

When the last person left with the iron basin, Del filled another large bowl and handed it to the people next to him: "Sir, you should be the first to enjoy your soup. You don't have to wait for them all to eat."

Crown took the bowl, put it on the wooden stand beside him, and said softly: "Not counting the person who went to the mine, we still have two people missing here. Find out who it is."

Del was startled and quickly glanced around. He picked up the wooden spoon and knocked the big iron pot hard twice.

"Dang, Dang", a dull voice sounded, and he shouted loudly: "Everyone, two of us are missing. Each group should recognize each other and see who is missing in this group."

"Come on, come on," a gong's voice came from the woods, and a short, fat man wearing a worn-out peaked cap and holding a homemade cigarette as big as his thumb ran out and said with a naive smile: "I just felt sick to my stomach."

"Balu, you are emptying your stomach specifically to eat more," someone shouted.

"Don't mention it yet, Balu has done it."

"Shut up, you guys. What you say is disgusting." Del frowned. He shouted in embarrassment to stop the hooting, and shouted: "Hurry up and identify the people. The small group will report the situation."

"It's Kalam," the man with brown beard stood up and shouted, "He ran away after informing us, and we haven't seen him come back."

Del put his hands together into a trumpet shape and shouted with all his strength: "Kalam"

There were echoes from the forest, and everyone's voices suddenly stopped. They even swallowed as gently as possible, and the scene was quiet.

Bending down and picking up the hand crossbow at his feet, Del took a long breath: "Sir, I will take people to find him. Caulker, where is the last place you saw him, take me there."

After speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Crown pressed the man's arm that was holding the crossbow, and said in a low voice: "Wait a moment, I will take people there, and wait for Geralt and the others to come over."

"But I'm afraid Kalam can't wait, so why don't we all go there together."

"The teams are not far apart. Kalam was in danger but no call for help came. It should have happened in an instant. He was so fast that he had no time to react. This means that the attacker was very fast or was confused by something. Heart orifices.”

Crown imitated the manner of a witcher and tied the scabbard behind his back, and continued: "Everyone will have to spread out to search if we go together. It is even more difficult for me to take care of you in the mountains and forests. You first organize everyone to be alert. .”

Del tightened the crossbow in his hand and shouted loudly: "Guys, please be careful."

The men put down their rice bowls one after another, some began to string their crossbows, and some picked up the axes thrown on the ground, and gathered close to each other.

The air was somewhat solid, and the heavy breathing of many people could be heard at the scene.

Seventy-eight minutes later, Geralt led the mining team from a distance.

After seeing this, Crown shouted: "Caulker, lead the way, and here are two more people with crossbows. The others follow Geralt's command and be alert."

Del ordered: "Baru, Hogg, you two follow."

The hand of the bearded man held the ax handle so tightly that his fingers turned white.

He walked in front with a hunched waist, and the other two followed behind him. Crown held the line at the back, and the four of them walked towards the forest.

. . . . "Sir Knight, Ka, Kalam ran over there for convenience," Caulker pointed at the crooked-necked tree not far ahead and shouted.

Crown took a few steps forward and found that the man's fingers were trembling slightly. The other two people pursed their lips and held the crossbows hard.

The combat literacy of these ordinary people is still not expected. During the night vigil, they were still shooting decently while hiding behind the wall, but they lost their courage when fighting at close range.

At this moment, Kroun once again felt the malicious sense of being spied on.

He patted Caulker on the shoulder: "Take a deep breath, everyone, relax a little. If you are too nervous, you will not be able to exert your due fighting power. You guard the back, I will go and take a look."

His hand quickly turned into an afterimage, he silently recited a spell in his mind, and quickly applied two buffs to himself: the Purifying Heart Curse and the Golden Light Body Protection.

You have to do your best when fighting a lion or a rabbit, let alone when facing an enemy who doesn't know the depth of the enemy.

Apart from taking drugs, he had made most of the preparations.

Is the 'enemy' fishing?When they first came here, there were too many ordinary people, so they were wary of them, and they didn't look like they were any powerful things.

Now, they fished out a great white shark. A cold light shone in Kroun's eyes. He pulled out the sharp sword from his back, chose a position some distance away from the big tree, and strode over.

The expected attack did not happen. He saw a girl with a pretty face and cool clothes. Her skin was like white jade, and her green hair was messy and scattered behind her ears.

Her eyes are also green, like a pool of autumn water, which makes people feel pity for them.

"Uncle, I'm hungry." The girl's voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, with a hint of charm.She stuck out her tongue and licked her red lips.

His eyes quickly turned 360 degrees to scan the scene. Kroun glanced at a man high up who was missing from the waist down. Bloody tree branches were growing out of the man's neck.

The cold light in his eyes disappeared, he stretched his arm downwards to tilt the sword, and walked forward with a grin: "I'm here to give you some delicious food."

"Wu Gu", two shrill laughter like night owls came from high behind him, sounding eerie and terrifying.

"Sir, behind you."

The moment he heard the sharp laughter, or to be precise before the strange laughter, when he heard the sound of an object falling, he released bullet time, and his body shot towards the enemy in front of him like a crossbow arrow.

At the same time, the girl's eyes turned scarlet, her skin turned gray and hard, and her red lips turned black.

A pair of fleshy wings like bats grew out from behind her, and there were blood-colored claws on the bones protruding from the fleshy wings.

Girl, no, the monster flew at low altitude, its head deformed and elongated, leaving only a flat mouth as big as a millstone, as if it wanted to swallow the enemy in one bite.

The sharp sword in Crown's hand reflected a fiery red glow, making his weapon look like it had just been taken out of the furnace.

The moment the two were about to collide, when they were still four or five meters apart, the monster's body rushed straight up unnaturally.

Perhaps, it also knows that its opponent is difficult to deal with and wants to avoid incoming attacks.Perhaps, this is all calculated and set up by the monsters, and it is just a fishing bait.

With the bullet time superimposed, Crown's thinking speed was very fast. The moment he noticed the monster taking off, he also soared into the sky. The firelight reflected his resolute face and his sharp and solemn eyes.
