The houses made of straw were mottled with dried blood, and the walls were densely covered with sharp scratches. There were many intersecting paths in the village, but now it was hard to tell which one was which because of the overgrown weeds.
After walking a few steps through the gate, Natalia suddenly ran to a seemingly roadside hawker's cart, but … it was already broken beyond recognition.
"I … bought candy apples here …" Natalia lowered her head and murmured, "I remember when my parents first brought me here, they bought a big candy apple here to give me some peace …"
Reynolds was a little sad, but in order to ease the current atmosphere, he could only try to comfort her. "That … that …"
(Ah! I don't know how to comfort people at all!)
"What's wrong?" Natalia asked simply.
(What should I say? What would Croatia say … emm …)
"Is that candy apple delicious?"
… ….
(Ah! What am I talking about? That idiot from Croatia!)
In the midst of the awkwardness, to Reynolds's surprise, Natalia burst into laughter. This was the first time he had ever seen Natalia laugh.
"I'm fine! Don't worry about it! "
"Oh …" Although he said so, he was actually still worried in his heart.
The two walked along the only main road in the village, which was a little like a huge centipede. The road under their feet was its body, and the endless paths were like its terrifying limbs. The houses built on this foundation were also the shells that resisted external forces.
The broken houses around them were obviously densely covered with knife and sword marks. Suspiciously, it seemed that no matter where they looked, they couldn't find any remaining corpses, which was really puzzling.
This … looked like an abandoned village …
Reynolds stopped and put his hands on his waist. His head was slightly lowered, and his white hair was in front of his eyes, showing a very distressed expression.
"Natalia …"
“？”
"Have you met the Demon Race here before?"
"You … How do you know?" Natalia was stunned for a moment.
"Hurry up and answer me!" Reynolds shouted in a slightly domineering tone.
"Oh!" It was Natalia's first time seeing Reynolds so angry.
"After my father sent me to a safe place, he asked me to go home alone. I kept walking along that road. When I was hungry, I ate the wild vegetables by the roadside. When I was thirsty, I drank the occasional stream …" At this point, Natalya's tone became a little weak. "I walked like this for five days and five nights. All I saw along the way were endless forests and many ferocious beasts."
Taking a deep breath, he continued, "But I didn't expect that all these difficulties didn't defeat me. What defeated me was actually my own body. The lack of water, the alternating heat and cold seemed to have exceeded the limits of my body. On the sixth day, I collapsed on the road."
Reynolds looked at Natalia and regretted his impulsive attitude just now.
"Just as I was about to faint, a red-haired woman who was covered in wounds and blood walked out from the bush nearby. She asked me if I wanted to live."
"So you said you wanted to?" Reynolds interrupted.
"Yes!" Natalya answered, feeling a little ashamed.
"Ah … I don't mean to look down on you. When one's life is in danger, it's human nature to want to continue living. If I were you, I would have said the same thing."
Natalya's face turned red.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing … I'm fine. I just feel much better after hearing what you said. "
"And then? What about the red-haired woman? How do you know she's a demon? "
"Oh! Well, in theory, there's actually no difference between a demon and a human, but the red-haired woman has two black horns that are as long as index fingers on both sides of her forehead. She also emits a very strong murderous aura. My intuition tells me that she's a demon. "
(Red hair, black horns, could it be …)
"Tell me more details!" Reynolds grabbed Natalia's shoulders and said anxiously, "Does the red-haired woman have any other characteristics?"
"Let me think …" Natalia subconsciously supported her right elbow with her left arm and then supported her chin with her right fist. "That woman is very flirtatious! Emm … Yes, very flirtatious. Her skin is a little dark. Oh, that's all I can remember! "
"Okay!" Reynolds had a rough idea in his heart.
"Ha-ha!" Reynolds suddenly burst into laughter.
Renault's strange behavior startled Natalya.
"Sorry! Ha-ha, I just feel that you've changed a lot recently! Emm … I just feel that you've become a lot more cheerful since you came here! "
(Hmph!)
"Hey! Don't go! "
… ….
"Hey, let's go back, okay? I'll give you carrots to eat, okay? "
At this moment, the beautiful Avina was sitting on Hua Kai's shoulder and complaining from time to time.
Due to Croatia's restless request, Hua Kai and the beautiful Avina were also forced to come out in the middle of the night. The location of Hengweng Village was originally located in a relatively remote place in the human world, let alone in an even more remote forest, so it directly caused the surrounding air to be extremely cold.
"Stop complaining! Such a big forest, there must be a lot of treasures that can't be found! "
"But …"
"No buts! Be careful, or I'll tell Mr. Reynolds that you secretly ate his experimental results! "
(Oh ~)
The beautiful Avina cast an expectant look at Hua Kai with her small red bean-like eyes, and Hua Kai also understood the beautiful Avina's thoughts.
"That … Croatia, don't you feel that the surrounding temperature is a little abnormally low?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem a little cold!" Croatia stopped and began to rub his arms with his palms.
"Yeah! Although it's not too far away from winter now, it feels like falling into an ice cave! "
"…"
"Hey! Then let's go back, okay? "
"Oh ~" Croatia seemed to be a little shaken. "But, but maybe there's a treasure in front of us!"
"Ti ~ Si ~ ya!" Hua Kai deliberately dragged out the word.
"Oh ~ Okay! Let's go back! " Croatia compromised … Before leaving, she looked back at the forest in front of her reluctantly because she always felt that there was an incredible treasure there.
