Chapter 1176: 1158 thick fog

Chapter 1176 1158. Dense fog

When talking about this, Nannick mainly wanted Lan En to have a prerequisite understanding of the situation.

But then, when talking about the stage when the whole thing was finally discovered and taken seriously, Nannik's tone became serious.

"But just when the mountain people had just finished working for a period of time, they were preparing to go home to send money and take a vacation with their families."

"According to the few mountain people who ran all the way to this temple and then came back to their senses, they already felt something was wrong before they even entered the village."

"There should have been huge old trees and stubborn rocks around the village. These things are obstacles for the mountain people to travel, but they are also the natural defense of the village's outer layer."

"But when the mountain people who took paid leave from the mines returned, the thick trees were broken like fragile matches, and the broken wood chips even covered an area as big as a house."

"The stubborn rock was like a piece of butter that had been crushed and smashed. The scattered stones even flew half a kilometer away, and then broke a forest."

"Listening to their descriptions, I thought it was some stupid general who dragged the expensive Fire Scorpion siege vehicle up the mountain just to attack that mediocre mountain village."

Aunt Nannick said in a deep voice.

As her low tone and this ominous and tragic story progressed, it seemed that even this originally bright and lush garden had a depressing atmosphere.

"The whole place seemed to have been severely ravaged by something. The group of mountain people who came back from work were completely frightened. In fact, Aurora and I took care of them for several days before they could return to their original state. Speak up."

"Didn't anyone see any traces other than the destruction of the site?" Lan En asked, "Didn't they enter their own village to take a look?"

Nannick nodded, indicating that Lan En was right.

"They really wanted to go in at that time. After all, their families were in the village, so of course they wouldn't be willing to do it without seeing it with their own eyes."

"But the goddess has blessed them, and they are very lucky."

"A few mountain people were frightened by the scene outside the village and wanted to enter the village with their heads covered. Before they had time to enter, they happened to encounter the hunter in the village who was already a little crazy."

Lan En tilted his head slightly: "The hunter in the village is not dead?"

"He had better luck." Nannick told him without looking back. "Although I don't know the exact time when the accident happened in the village, he was chasing a bear and had already been in the mountains for a week and was not in the village."

"The hunter returned to the village earlier than the working mountain people. Not only did he see the traces of the explosion outside the village earlier, he even had the courage to go in and take a look. That's why he is a little crazy."

"According to him, the scene in the village was like..."

Nannick pursed his lips, which seemed a little difficult to describe, but finally he took a breath and spoke.

"It's like there's a greedy and tyrannical demon that abuses everything!"

"Everything is gone, people, livestock, and all living creatures. There are cracks and depressions everywhere. Almost the ground of the entire village has been shattered and a layer has been shaved off!"

"That's a mountainous area, Lan En." Nannick turned to look at the witcher and emphasized to him, "Except for a layer of soil on the surface, it's all rocky mountainous area!"

"The hunter was so frightened by the scene in the village that he became insane. His mind went blank and he wandered outside the village for several days, neither daring to leave nor to stay. It was all because of the smelly bear he hunted. "

"It wasn't until the working mountain people came back and met familiar people that the hunter's spirit became a little normal. He ran out, talking nonsense and dragged the equally panicked mountain people out of the mountain. run."

"A group of people relied on the smelly bear to run all the way from the Mahakam Mountains to Airland. I really don't know how they survived."

Lan En's thin lips exposed from under the hood moved, and he repeated Sister Nannick's description in a low voice.

"Only a bear carcass?"

"I'm just relaying it to you as information."

Lan En immediately nodded in gratitude: "This is the most detailed and useful thing I have heard so far."

"You're welcome," Nannick turned around and patted the witcher's arm, "I can only help you with this much."

The kind fat mother-in-law smiled.

"Do Duke Siward and Aden know this information?"

Lan asked Nannick.

"Of course." Nannick nodded, "After comforting those poor people and allowing them to speak normally, I gave them the news."

"The area of ​​influence caused by the 'fog' is quickly approaching the Pontal Valley, and everyone will be nervous about it."

"Although Temeria and Aedirn are the northern powers closest to the Nilfgaard Empire, most of their energy is still involved in the confrontation. However, Siward and Aedirn's Demavi still gathered a lot of people. manpower to resolve this matter.”

"A lot of manpower?"

Lan En tilted his head towards the kind fat mother-in-law.

"Powerful mercenaries, well-known hunters, dangerous killers." Nannick shrugged, "There are also young people who get involved for money or fame, who heard the news or found connections from nowhere. And so on. ”

"Is this too involved? I thought Foltest and Demavi wanted to resolve this matter quietly."

"They want to be silent, but can they do it?"

The chief priest of the temple smiled with a pouty expression.

"Those who actually come to carry out the work, such as Seeward, all cherish the direct power under their command and are afraid of suffering a lot of losses. Why not do it if you can find people who will work and die at a relatively cheap price? "

"Besides, the area affected by the unknown 'thing' is about to touch the Pontal Valley. Even if it is hidden, how long can it be hidden? It's okay to deceive yourself, but forget about deceiving others."

"Okay, okay." Lan En shrugged helplessly.

Nannik continued to walk forward, and during the conversation that he had deliberately slowed down just now, they had already passed through the garden next to the temple.

"The room assigned to you is right next to the people who came here for this matter. I am here to receive them."

Lan En complimented politely: "This at least means that in their hearts you are a trustworthy and respectable person than Hewold."

"Then I hope they don't respect me." Nannick said indifferently, "Let's worship the goddess. Every one of them looks like they are licking blood from the knife edge, eh."

After saying that, there was a pavilion in front of the two people after walking out of the garden, and two voices, a man and a woman, came from the pavilion.

Nannick raised his eyebrows and smiled at Lan En behind him.

"There are actually some interesting people in this group of people. I recommend that you get to know them."

"Like the two in front?"

Lan En said knowingly.

"To be precise, it's that woman. She makes me feel a little interesting." Nannick waved his hand.

"So what's her name?"

"Sakia." Nannick pointed to the pavilion not far ahead and said, "Sakia Saas."
