"Ah!"
A few noble youths screamed, whipping their horses and running away quickly.
This was not because they were timid, but because they knew how terrifying the mysterious attack was.
That bodyguard was also a Beyonder!
"Hmm?"
When Hank appeared, Fang Xian felt that something was wrong and touched his forehead.
Danger Premonition was activated, making him realize that the real danger was not the horrifying corpses, but the stench of corpses in the air.
This kind of attack is somewhat similar to a wizard's curse …
And … it seems that someone is manipulating it, not targeting the noble men and women, but … me and Peter?
Fang Xian's eyes narrowed slightly.
The hunters were all local nobles, and the death of one or two would be a shocking case.
Therefore, the murderer killed Hank, the groom, and a bodyguard at most.
This made this mysterious incident look more like a warning and a test than an attack.
Of course … the others are like this, but it's hard to say for me and Peter … In addition, I'm still too weak. I'm just an Ancient Copper, and I don't have many attack methods. Do I just rush in when something happens? That's a warrior, not a warlock … Although my talent is indeed more suitable …
Thinking of this, he pulled Peter and kept retreating, shouting, "Cover your mouth and nose, they may have been poisoned!"
This was obviously more acceptable than a curse, and Peter hurriedly covered his mouth and nose.
At the same time, Fang Xian's eyes suddenly changed, becoming only the whites of his eyes.
In an instant, his thoughts seemed to rise high into the sky, overlooking the entire forest, and combining with the perspective of a small animal.
This was a combination of the [Animal Affinity] and [Soul Exit] talents.
After all, they were abilities that Fang Xian had honed himself countless times, and they were extremely flexible when used.
On the treetop, a squirrel holding a fruit suddenly dropped it and ran quickly.
In the forest, a giant bear roared and rushed in the direction where Hank had fetched water.
Under the cover of fallen leaves, a triangular snake head suddenly appeared, the scales on its body blending into the surrounding color.
More rats, insects, swine, birds … all kinds of small animals got busy, and together they formed a large surveillance net.
At this moment, this forest impressively became Fang Xian's home ground.
Not long after, Fang Xian noticed that something was wrong through the gaze of an eagle.
In the depths of the forest, a man in a gray cloak was performing some mysterious ritual.
"The smell of a curse …"
He immediately switched his perspective and turned into a squirrel, carefully observing the ritual.
'Hmm … He's only at the second tier, [Ancient Bronze] level. But if I can't find him, it'll be troublesome …'
A curse-type mysterious attack was indeed very strong and difficult to deal with.
If caught off guard, it was even possible to kill the enemy with a curse that was a step higher.
However, it also had a weakness, and that was that the caster was relatively weak. If the source was found, there was a possibility of solving everything.
As he thought about it indifferently, Fang Xian changed his perspective.
He turned into a poisonous snake slithering through the dead leaves and slowly crawled to the side of the gray-robed man.
Suddenly!
He arched his body and sprang up, his sharp fangs biting directly at the gray-robed man's throat!
The other party obviously did not expect to be attacked. He screamed and fell down. He grabbed the poisonous snake and tore it in half.
"Damn, there's still snake venom …"
The gray-robed man no longer cared about the ritual, and hurriedly rummaged through his pocket, trying to find a tube of antidote.
Roar!
At this moment, a wild boar rushed out of the dense forest in a barbaric manner, like a tank, and hit the mysterious gray-robed man.
The harsh sound of bones cracking suddenly rang out.
In the surroundings, there was a mountain bear and a pack of wild wolves running over, their eyes glowing with a faint green light.
…
Peter covered his mouth and nose, looking at the forest in horror, for fear that another monster would jump out of it.
But he had a feeling.
It seemed that just a moment ago, the cold and gloomy feeling around him disappeared.
"Go!"
Next to him, Fang Xian pulled his shoulder, and a group of noble young masters and ladies got on their horses with the help of servants and quickly fled.
The Extraordinaire bodyguards also felt that it was strange because the curse was no longer moving.
But they were happy with it. None of them had the courage to face it head-on, and instead protected their own targets as they left the forest.
It was not until they had run a long distance that they slowed down slightly and breathed a sigh of relief in unison. At the same time, they were somewhat puzzled. "Could it really be … just a random Mysterious outbreak?"
…
The young nobleman hunting in the wild was suspected to have been attacked!
This was definitely big news in the small Worcestershire.
Before nightfall, security officers had already arrived. After probing, they cordoned off the scene and waited for professionals to take over.
At this moment, in the dense forest.
Where the gray-robed man had been, there were already two men in black windbreakers standing.
One of them, a pale young man, squatted down and carefully examined the surrounding soil and traces. "Wild wolves, brown bears … This guy is really pitiful. Was he eaten by wild beasts? I have to inform the surrounding forest guards to be careful of mutated beasts … "
After ordinary beasts devoured Mystery, there was a certain probability that they would become magical creatures.
Of course, the possibility was not high. The biggest possibility was that they would become irritable, easily angered, and easily hurt people.
"The source of the cursed ritual is here, but this Cursemancer was eaten by wild beasts …" The other middle-aged man frowned. "This seems to be the work of a Druid, the Enemy of Nature … Are there any Druids among the bodyguards of those noble young masters and ladies?"
"According to the registration, there aren't any … I just find it strange. Why would a Cursemancer attack a bunch of young masters and ladies? Just for revenge? "
The young man stood up and asked. "After all, we all know the habits of some nobles. Maybe they unknowingly offended someone …"
"I know you're angry, but don't forget the purpose of our Special Case Department. We only deal with Extraordinaire cases. We don't need to care about anything else."
The middle-aged man warned.
"Yes … I'm just … a little emotional." The young agent looked sad.
"But for the sake of investigating a case, it's normal to get some information, isn't it?" The middle-aged agent blinked. "If there's really something that causes public outrage, it might be picked up by some kind tabloid reporter … They're willing to put their lives on the line for a big scoop."
"That's right!"
The young man's eyes lit up. He took out his notebook and checked the noble families that came one by one. He pointed at a line with interest. "The Roland family? That recent nouveau riche? "
