Chapter 294 293. Daytime Demon Spirit

The residents of this small village received Lan En and Poppy warmly. At least on the surface, they were warm.

Outside of Lan En's front, people will still subconsciously resist contact with the witcher.

The village elder is a man named Mut, who looks to be in his forties or fifties. His face is gloomy after living in poverty for too long.

The linen shirt on his body has become tattered and threaded at the corners, and he wears a pair of shiny leather boots on his feet.

He invited Lan to stay at his home tonight.

"We sincerely thank you, Master Demon Hunter. Those glowing beasts outside have caused our village to suffer for a long time. Every night, we upright villagers can only sit in our dens and pray. I didnt even dare to look outside.

At the dinner table, Lan En slowly ate the dinner provided by the village chief and elders.

The mushroom soup was nothing new, and the bread was dry and hard. I guess the flour was mixed with acorn powder.

The elder described a picture of an honest and responsible village being besieged by unknown monsters and living a difficult life.

Lan En raised his eyes and glanced at him.

"That's the ghost dog, Mr. Mutt. Don't you know this kind of thing? They are very famous among the people."

"What ghost dog? Master, we are all honest farmers. We are different from those green **** in the forest next to us who kill and sell goods and do all kinds of evil. We don't know what kind of monster it is, and we don't want to know. We just want to farm honestly. land."

He is lying.

After hearing this, Lan En made a judgment without even raising his head from the soup bowl to observe his expression.

If he really didn't know the folklore about the ghost dog "coming from evil", why did he compare it with the "tree spirit who does all evil"?

Its just that he doesnt know yet whether the evil that attracted these ghost dogs was done by the village elders or by many villagers.

In rural areas, it is not uncommon for villagers to cover up each other or even cooperate with each other to do things that violate morality and law.

The matter of the three ghost dogs shouldnt be that bad, right?

Lan En himself has little experience. He just plans to deal with the Cormorant Curse first and then ask the experienced Geralt for advice.

So he directly asked the village elders if there was any special scenery nearby that was suitable for a tryst.

This is related to Baron Hamm's lifting of the curse, so let him cooperate well.

However, contrary to Lan En's expectation, this time he tried to pull off the tiger's skin with great success in other villages, but it failed to make him submit to Mutt.

On the contrary, this man seemed to want to threaten him in return.

Aha! This is about the Baron turning back into a human being!

When Mutt spoke with an uncontrollable happy tone, Lan En's eyes had already narrowed slightly.

Sure enough, the next moment.

"Master! Master Demon Hunter! This is a big deal! You, you can't let this job go wrong, right?"

Mutt swallowed nervously, but did not let himself avoid staring at Lan En's cat eyes.

You, you should do us a favor. As long as we deal with the monster wandering outside the village, we will cooperate with you in everything!

The young man pursed his lips as he looked at the village elder in front of him who was frightened but still clinging to the message.

Damn it, its really possible to meet this kind of person! ?

Lan used the name of Baron Hamm to get people in various villages to actively cooperate because Baron Hamm's intimidating power was indeed great in the hearts of the villagers.

The baron who can shake the grain shovel when collecting taxes is the biggest power holder to the villagers.

But what if the title of Baron is not the most intimidating in a village?

For example, a monster wandering outside the village. At this time, the other party had the courage to threaten the people sent by the baron.

The Baron wants me to work, but I'm about to be torn apart by monsters now! If you don't help me deal with the monsters, whoever is willing to do this job will do it!

Mut now looked at Lan En with a humble and pleading face, almost kneeling down before him.

But in fact, he is the one threatening Lan En now.

He thought that the witcher, like him, was a person who relied on the Baron for a living, so he should not dare to mess things up no matter what.

In this era of limited information, even village elders mostly do not have extensive knowledge.

Lan En shook his head, preparing to reject him directly.

If you let Lan En encounter a monster that is ravaging a village on the road, he will most likely draw his sword and go up to it. But you have to use coercion to force him to work

Even if I want to kill the monster, I have to wait until you learn a lesson before I do it.

Do good people have to be held at gunpoint? That doesn't make sense!

But just when Lan En was about to refuse, Mutt had already begun to describe the monster to him.

"That's an ethereal, shadow-like demon spirit. She always appears at noon, and the villagers who see her feel like they've been roasted dry! It's been two years now that we don't dare to go anywhere between noon and two p.m. Get out of the house!

Please, be kind. Drive this thing away quickly!

Lan En, who was originally ready to refuse directly, stopped what he was about to say.

His cat eyes looked at the begging Mut with a strange expression, but the words in his mouth became.

.Okay, no problem.

Mutt jumped up happily and walked out of the house, announcing the good news to the villagers, causing a cheer.

Lan En in the room calmly looked at the back of the village elder.

The reason why I changed my mind temporarily was because of that monster

The demonic spirit of the day.

It is said that when the sun reaches its highest point, a demonic spirit that looks like a sunburnt woman wearing a white robe sometimes appears. These are day spirits, most of whom are transformed from young women who died violently before their weddings.

With emotions of pain and resentment, they and their own phantoms form a circle in the sun and dance the dance of demon spirits. Ordinary people will be confused by the supernatural power and join in.

But in the end, all thats left is a roasted corpse.

This is a bit too coincidental, isn't it?

Two years ago, Fresnet had a falling out with his lover and was cursed to become a cormorant. In this village where they once had a tryst, daytime demons started to appear two years ago.

This kind of female demon spirit was born with the anger of love and hatred.

Lan felt like he was about to get a clue.

"Sir, we are not sure yet that it is the day spirit. The farmers' words are always inaccurate because they lack knowledge and always like to exaggerate."

Mentos carefully reminded Lan not to rashly determine the type of monster and formulate a battle plan just because of what the village elder said.

How many master witchers died on this.

I understand, lets go to the site to see for ourselves tomorrow.

As a demon hunter, Lan En always adheres to a cautious style.
