What bad luck.
In the words of a businessman, Reina's luck was terrible.
It was a corpse. There was no mistaking it. The stench was coming from there, and not from Reina's meticulous cooking.
Why would there be a corpse in a place like this?
Reina did not notice it when she arrived. She was only sixty or seventy meters away from the corpse. During the day, she was at the top of the wind, but at night, the change in temperature changed the direction of the wind in the mountains.
The black book told her that the wind was related to the temperature. For example, the fireball in her hand could generate hot wind upward.
But it seemed a little off topic. The question now was why was there a corpse here?
Reina stood still. She did not go any closer. A normal person would not ask a stranger's corpse in the wild, let alone at night.
She looked up at the sky. She could see the night sky from where she was standing.
"The moon is so round today."
Reina planned to pretend that she did not see it and move away. However, just as she turned around and took a few steps, she suddenly remembered Feng Ma's missing mother.
She stopped. The leaves and grass around her swayed. It was exceptionally quiet.
Maybe she would wait until tomorrow to confirm. It was too dark now. She could not see anything.
The thought made Reina feel like a coward. In the end, she turned around, gathered her courage, and walked toward the corpse. This required more courage than she had imagined. The body was covered with wriggling maggots. She could not tell which were the bones and which were the maggots. She looked up and saw the eye sockets that had been hollowed out by the crows. The two dark holes were facing her.
Her stomach suddenly felt like it was being overturned. Reina turned away. She did not like this scene. No one liked this smell. It was the first time she felt that the fireball in her hand was too bright.
Fortunately, the corpse was not a woman. It was a man's corpse. From the clothes and the size of the bones, it was a middle-aged man. So, it was definitely not Feng Ma's mother.
Reina did not know the cause of his death. She was not an expert, but she could not tell how this person died as if she was the murderer. There was no arrow in its head to tell her that it was the one who killed it. Moreover, this had nothing to do with her. If she wanted to investigate every corpse she encountered on the way, she would still be thousands of miles away.
Alright, we can go now.
Reina immediately turned around and quickened her pace towards the camp. She was going to get the hell out of here, right now, right now.
As she neared the light of the bonfire, the smell became fainter and fainter. She began to pant. She would definitely have nightmares tonight, so she decided not to sleep. This was the perfect solution. Reina bent down and packed her things. She picked up her luggage and prepared to leave.
Just as she was using magic to extinguish the bonfire, a pale yellow light suddenly appeared on the horizon. There was also thick smoke, and there were sparks in the smoke.
It came from the direction she came from, which was the direction of the village.
Is it a festival?
People always liked to surround themselves with burning flames during festivals. That way, it would be more festive. Reina did not take it to heart at first, but just as she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of a problem.
Why would the village suddenly hold a party?
It must be known that a festival was usually held to celebrate the harvest, for old friends, or for something important. Moreover, it was usually very lively and needed to be prepared in advance.
But she just came out of the village today, and she did not see any movement in the village. Could it be that the villagers were celebrating the departure of this witch?
No, no, she was not that narcissistic.
Or could it be that this was a festival for the three mountain gods?
This was not very likely. The three mice could have hidden it, but Feng Ma did not have to hide this matter.
This was strange.
Reina frowned. At this moment, something suddenly jumped out from the bushes, startling Reina who was deep in thought.
She turned around, and without thinking, she slapped out her palm. It was the corpse, it was "alive"! In a moment of desperation, she released a little more magic, and a beautiful explosion immediately appeared in the black forest, like fireworks.
The evil spirit turned into ashes, and the forest behind it was also burning fiercely. But in the next second, a clear spring swept past, and all the flames immediately disappeared, leaving only some white smoke.
Looking at the scorched marks on the ground, Reina immediately turned around and rushed in the direction of the flames. She ran for a while, using lightning speed to shuttle through the dark forest, but she felt that it was still too slow. So she lifted her feet, suddenly jumped, and flew towards the sky.
Unlike the birds, she did not need to flap her wings as hard as she could. It was as if she had a rope tied to her back, and the rope lifted her up. In fact, the principle of her flight was similar.
Reina flew higher and higher. Stepping on the air, she saw the scene in the distance.
It was a forest fire! The fire circle surrounded the village. No matter who it was, this was too much!
She immediately increased her speed and flew towards the village.
The farmlands and cottages were all on fire. The situation was more serious than she thought. The fire had been burning for a while, maybe it had already started when she was cooking dinner. But her attention was always on the bonfire, and she did not notice the scene in the forest.
What happened? Why did it become like this?
Passing through the blazing wall of fire, she entered the burning village. The sound of the fire was everywhere, and there were screams and cries coming from nowhere. She could not even tell the direction. At this moment, a loud noise attracted her attention.
"Ah! Help! Help! "
She turned her head and saw a man on fire suddenly jumping out of the road. Judging from the sound, it was a person she hated, Homan.
Reina waved her hand, and the small water dragon behind her immediately flew out and extinguished the fire on the man.
Most of his body was charred black by the fire. At this moment, he was desperately crawling towards Reina, rolling and crawling as if there was something terrifying chasing after her.
There was really something.
A swift figure rushed out of the burning house, smashing the smoke and stone walls into pieces, and red eyes appeared in the flames.
It was a monster about two meters tall, with two horns on its head. Its body looked very strong.
The trembling Homan finally crawled in front of Reina. He grabbed Reina's foot and shouted at her, "Save me, save me, I don't want to die!"
Reina frowned. Sure enough, the moment she lowered her head, the enemy charged.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Its heavy footsteps caused a terrible vibration. Reina quickly kicked Homan away, but the enemy was already in front of her.
Its huge figure completely covered her, and in the darkness, she saw a terrible silver blade.
In an instant, the blade cut her body in half. The next moment, a crack appeared where she was standing, and a terrible burst of smoke and dust burst out. A strong wind blew away the surrounding stones and sand.
