Chapter 18 The Mysterious Centaur(1/2)

These lucky people made a fortune and then disappeared.

However, the abandoned mining areas after mining are marked on the map.

And these guys have been staying in this ghost place for half a year, and they must have established complete defense facilities. At this time, after the people of the adventure team enter, they can safely settle in after simple renovations.

The communicator on the goat has already received a signal and is trying to contact the guards in the camp. Otherwise, if you approach the camp rashly, you may fall into a trap or be directly attacked by the sentry.

While the two were exchanging information on the intercom, Fang Linyan inadvertently observed a black figure lying on the hill next to him, and his brows suddenly furrowed!

Because it was a strange and huge figure. It seemed to be looking towards the camp on the high ground. It seemed to be perfectly integrated into the darkness. If Fang Linyan, as a contractor, had not caught its outline with the corner of his eye, ordinary people would really

It is difficult to detect.

Fang Linyan immediately waved his hand to stop the team and said at the same time:

"Be careful, there's something going on."

The goat said in astonishment:

"What?"

The liaison officer in the camp has been replaced by Talen who is on duty. He is very concerned about Fang Linyan and the others, so he is also asking questions at this time.

"Is there a problem, guys? The radar says you're stopped?"

Fang Linyan frowned and said:

"There seems to be something strange spying on our camp over there. I plan to go there!"

Tarun immediately said urgently:

"Man, are you sure that's not a warg or something? It's too dangerous. Nighttime is the home of native creatures, so I'd better not go there."

To be honest, Talen was sincere this time, because Fang Linyan and his group were considered elite among the remaining people at this time.

He knows both welding and investigation, and can also give very pertinent opinions. Although Fang Linyan and the others may be able to save a lot of commissions if something happens to them, Talen doesn't want something to happen to them now, because it means that the team's strength will be damaged again.

As a result, his own chances of survival will decrease!

Fang Linyan squinted his eyes and looked around and said:

"Probably not. Wargs all appear in groups."

After Talon heard this, he said helplessly:

"Uh! Okay, then you should be careful and run away as soon as possible. I will arrange for someone to pick you up right now."

"OK!"

Soon, Fang Linyan and the other two people went directly behind the creature and approached from the rear. It looked a bit like a huge beast, with very obvious horns on its head. It seemed like a cow or a sheep.

Thinking of the taste of the kebabs, Fang Linyan immediately planned to keep them, but saw the black figure's limbs lying on the ground motionless, with a long fluffy tail trailing behind him, peering towards the camp.

However, Fang Linyan and the three of them only got within fifty meters, and even the shadow clone of the vulture had just reached about thirty meters when the black shadow suddenly turned around, its movements very vigorous and agile.

Only then did Fang Linyan realize that it was not a beast, but a humanoid intelligent creature!

This guy has an old face and messy long hair. He looks like he has an unconventional style of haircut and hair drying. He has a pair of elf-like ears on the side of his head. His upper body is wrapped in a green radish plant and he has a human shape, while his lower body is a bare horse body. On his shoulders

It is also covered with shell-like carapace.

The most eye-catching thing is that he is holding what looks like an ordinary spear in his right hand.

There are actually a few green leaves at the end of the spear handle. However, the tip of the spear is very blunt, and when you look at it, it gives people a "very dangerous" feeling, as if your subconscious is reminding you that you must not be touched. bump into.

"Is this... a centaur?"

Such a term suddenly appeared in Fang Linyan's mind.

At this time, I got closer and took a closer look. This old centaur had many scars on its thighs, upper body, and arms. It must have been through many battles, and there were even a few fresh wounds on its body. Fortunately, these wounds had already turned bloody. , even so, it is still quite miserable to go up there.

Judging from the old man's lame leg and the spear he is holding, he should be a hunter of a certain tribe or a wilderness guard. It seems that he has just experienced a thrilling and fierce battle.

For a moment, many thoughts passed through Fang Linyan's mind, and finally he asked:

"Who are you and why are you here?"

The old centaur stared at Fang Linyan for a while, and then said calmly:

"Young humans, I feel the breath of death in you."

Fang Linyan suddenly looked a little confused:

"Really? There are many people who want my life, but now I am still alive and well, but those who want me dead are almost all dead."

The old centaur said calmly:

"Don't be excited, I know you will have such a reaction, but it doesn't matter. My name is Varden, and I am from the Centaur clan. The goddess of wind told me that there is a familiar smell here. I thought I had found my lost companion, but I didn’t expect that the people camping here would be humans.”

"You have a strong smell of blood. You must have just killed a lot of wargs. This is why I stopped to talk to you. Do you know? These ferocious guys have masters!"

After hearing Varden's words, Fang Linyan suddenly thought, because they were indeed the Wolf King who had just hunted down the scavenger wargs! And there were clear reminders in the space that he and others were contaminated with soul marks. , easily detected by certain intelligent creatures in this world.

At this time, Vulture also shared a series of information on the team channel, which they collected on the way to the planet in a spaceship, including information about centaurs.

In this plane, centaurs once had a glorious history, and could even rely on the mysterious plane gates to migrate to various planets. Therefore, even though they have declined at this time, their species can still be found on various planets in the vast universe.

This intelligent species did exist on the planet Tain, and they were mentioned in many myths and stories, calling them great sages. However, since this planet with lush green vegetation became desolate, no one has ever seen it again. them.

Legend has it that centaurs are descendants of tree gods, also known as tree shepherds. Many of them are proficient in strange abilities. Centaurs have a special liking for plants, and they seem to have the ability to spawn all things on the desolate surface.

At this time, Fang Linyan's eyes were also attracted by a necklace around Wadden's neck.

The necklace is made of intertwined rattan, which is a string of plants. Under the necklace is a pancake-shaped pendant, small and round. Strictly speaking, it is a gray stone, and the inscription on the pendant is actually the same. Thorns! It looks very similar to the necklace around the Wolf King's neck.

Obviously, there should be some unknown relationship between this Varden and the Wolf King.

Therefore, Fang Linyan squinted his eyes and said:

"Wolves eat humans. They feel that it is completely natural. We have no choice but to kill the wolf. But if we do it, we will do it. It is natural for you to avenge that wolf, and we will continue."

Walden obviously noticed Fang Linyan's appraising eyes and said calmly:

"Don't be nervous, human. If I were hostile, I would take action as soon as possible. The pendant I am wearing looks similar to the identity pendant of the wolf pack, but there are actually differences."

The goat walked up and looked carefully and said:

"There seems to be a point. The thorns on the necklace I have seen have flowers on them, but the thorns on his are fruits."

Walden said slightly surprised:

"Have you really looked at the howling ghost pendant in detail here? The fruit can be picked and eaten by travelers passing by to quench thirst and satisfy hunger. It also represents sacrifice and salvation, which is also the creed of our Magram sect."

"The Howling Ghost is a powerful creature tamed by the Kyrgyz sect. There are many thorns that can bloom, but the most famous one is the black buckthorn. This flower is highly poisonous, but the smell is intoxicating, tempting with benefits.

Outsiders are plunged into death, which is also similar to the code of conduct of the Magram sect."

At this time, the goat took out Gui Howling's necklace, identified it and said:

"It seems like that's really the case."

And in the next second, Ghost Howl's pendant lit up with silver light, seemingly dancing like fireflies, and the pendant around Varden's neck did the same.

Not only that, an indescribable sound slowly passed into the minds of the three of them, like the sound of wind, like bells, like the sound of raindrops... It was completely like the sound of nature.

The stones on the two pendants levitated at the same time and came close to each other in the air. People couldn't help but want to reach out and touch them, just like a newborn baby relying on instinct to find its mother's pacifier, which made it unable to control itself.

It's a pity that after the two stones shone for a while, the halo faded away, and they became dark and dull. They returned to normal and fell to the ground.

Walden said in surprise:

"It's strange, why does this pendant resonate with mine?"

It quickly stepped forward, picked up two stones, looked carefully, and said in shock:

"Is this the pendant of Ghost Howler?"

Fang Linyan said:

"Yes, the bloody smell you smell is from it."

Walden shook his head and said:

"It's unbelievable! Can you tell me how you killed it?"

Fang Linyan said:

"If you tell us one thing first."

Wadden said:

"What's up?"

Fang Linyan said:

"What's your relationship with Ghost Howl?"

Varden said in a melancholy voice:

"Fifty years ago, there was an extremely powerful tribe of tree shepherds on the earth, called the Jim tribe. However, this tribe later had great disputes due to different ideas and two heirs who were not convinced by the other."

"In the end, the powerful Jim tribe split into the Magram tribe and the Kyrgyz tribe, and this ideological split could easily lead to extreme incidents, so the two sides killed each other when they split, forming a bloody feud."

"However, the two tribes originated from one body, so they are very similar in many aspects. My identity is very complicated, I am a member of the Magram tribe, and Guihou is a beast spirit tamed by the Kyrgyz tribe!
