Chapter 35 35. Catching the cannibals
As Lan En expected, simple traps were placed in several places on the road.
Not too complicated, similar to what hunters would do to capture wild beasts.
Lann's observation skills dismantled these arrangements into pieces.
The roaring bear head necklace hung securely around his neck, which made Lan En even more at ease.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
Because this shows that there is no trace of magic involvement in this area.
Everyone followed him all the way to a cave.
Lan En gestured to Phillip behind him at the entrance of the cave. This was the murderer's hiding place.
The witcher felt the wind direction at the entrance of the cave and determined that there was only one exit to the cave.
The sergeants prepared in a relaxed atmosphere. They hung a kind of iron lantern on their chests.
A candle is placed in the middle of a fully enclosed iron box, leaving only a small window that can be opened and closed on the outside.
The structure of this kind of lantern can focus the light for forward illumination, and if you hang it on your chest through a layer of armor, you will not feel burned.
It can be regarded as a kind of medieval war wisdom.
The sergeants filed in, and the sound of armors clashing and rubbing against each other seemed urgent and dense under the echo of the cave.
Yes, Lan En and the soldiers no longer care about concealment at this time.
In the dim light of the fire, people could vaguely see a strange figure in the depths of the cave, looking panicked.
"Run, bastard! Run faster and see where you can go!" A leading soldier shouted with undisguised malice and anger. "How dare you eat people in Durnham! You can't even think of being hanged. We will tie you to a pyre and burn you alive so that you can atone for your sins!"
But even though he was shouting like this, the shield in his hand was never lowered from his face.
This undoubtedly helped him.
A stone flew out from the depths of the cave and hit the shield with a bang.
The shield was slightly tilted, but it returned to its posture in the blink of an eye.
Criminals who can eat people are undoubtedly the most threatening type. There is no way to let such people be caught without mercy.
The stone thrown just now would have hit the soldier's helmet directly if it had not been blocked by the shield.
The helmet can effectively protect the head, but this structure determines that even if the helmet is slapped twice by the enemy, the person inside will be dizzy.
Let alone a heavy stone.
Historically, the unarmed skill of the Yenicheri troops was the famous "Jenichili Slap".
Thanks to you, Master. Otherwise, if this **** was hiding here, we wouldnt know how hard it would have been to catch him!
Just remember the reward. Ugh, this **** smells so much of human flesh that it almost makes me sick to my stomach.
Dont worry about the bounty! We captured him alive, and the bounty will definitely not be less!
Lan nodded, he also agreed with Phillip's idea.
Alive is more valuable than dead.
But looking at the cannibal who was still wailing, Lann became a little more serious and made suggestions to Phillip.
"It's a good thing to complete the task, but let me say one more thing, that guy should not be alone."
Huh? Is there a murderer?
Philipp was shocked, but Lan shook his head and waved his hands.
He was the only one who committed the crime in Durnham, but what Im saying is that this guy belongs to a group of cannibals.
"how do you know?"
The sergeant looked at Lan En suspiciously. The young man raised his chin and pointed at the palm necklace on the murderer's chest.
"Look at that necklace. A human palm, neatly processed and hung around the neck. This is an obviously ceremonial ornament. Only when you are in a certain targeted group will you be born." Ritual' and 'ornamental' needs."
Philip's eyes were as clear as a child's.
Seeing this, Lan En pursed his lips and touched his forehead.
Lets put it this way, followers of the Eternal Fire will leave fire patterns all over their bodies, but others will not do so.
Oh~ I understand. Philip nodded up and down, You mean he believes in a cannibal sect?
You can think so. Lan En reluctantly agreed with this statement.
"Look at that palm necklace, the wrist incision has obviously been processed, and the wrist bones can be exposed cleanly. The antiseptic method is also very good, which shows that they have eaten many people, and they can even use the palms of these people to find out a set of production The flow of decorations. They are organized, Philip.
Lan En earnestly asked him to be careful, and it would be best to strengthen the security forces to patrol the area.
But Philip said: "I can't do it, master."
This man spoke in a very plain tone, and the tone was so light that it was almost not like he was talking about a group of organized cannibals, but a few mischievous children.
We only have so many people, and we cant support more people.
"Perhaps you don't believe it, this world is not like this. In the past ten years, I have felt as if I have changed my life in another world. Kings, you beat me, I beat you, until the ground was covered with blood, I don't know why. .In the past, no matter how poor Willen was, no one would steal a child, but now I have received dozens of reports of missing children in the past two months. We have to take care of this first, otherwise the farmers will not be able to farm with peace of mind. ?
Peoples hearts are broken, master. I can only say that when I encounter the cannibal sect, I will turn them over, but if I dont meet them, how much can a king do in this world?
