Chapter 1301 1273. Small fishing village
A gloomy and heavy sky.
This was Lan En's first impression when he squeezed out of the carriage.
Yanan is a city built in the mountains, and the weather in the mountains is changeable. The weather may be completely different once you reach the top of the mountain. This is normal.
But although the sky in Yanan is a bit cloudy and the colors are darker, it just makes people feel bad.
And this small fishing village
The witcher looked up, sniffed and took a breath.
Humid and gloomy.
It was so humid that it was like taking a breath and filling your lungs with moisture. It even felt like your hair had begun to become damp and stuck to your skin.
It was so dark that no sunlight could be seen.
According to the time, we should still be able to see the sunset now, but the dark clouds in the sky were thick and stagnant, as if it was already dark.
And it's the kind of dark night that's pressed down so low that it makes people breathless.
The two horses pulling the cart didn't neigh or move their hooves. They just stood still after stopping, panting occasionally.
A layer of cold mist spread on the ground.
There were several carriages parked here and there in the parking area.
It seems that this is where the hunters get off the bus.
"You're late, Maria." A hunter wearing a cowboy hat said emotionlessly from the driver's seat on the roof of a four-wheel carriage. "It's half a day late."
The huntress who got out of the car after Lan En glanced up.
"Were you left to look at the car?" Maria asked casually at first, as if she knew the hunter, and then continued. "I temporarily found a powerful hunter, which wasted time."
"Just in time, there are people in my car, can you help take care of them?"
The hunter sitting on the roof of the car said nothing. He just rubbed his leather-gloved palms on his weapons, making a rustling sound of leather and steel.
Because of the angle, Lan En couldn't see clearly what kind of weapon he was holding.
Maria lifted up her windbreaker, took out a blood collection bottle from her inner pocket, and threw it up to the hunter.
After the hunter received it, he finally showed his expression. An expression of obsession, desire, and impatience.
"I will, Maria."
After getting the blood collection bottle, the hunter responded.
"I'm so unlucky. So unlucky. Why do I have to stay? I can't smell the blood, and I can't tear open the prey's flesh with my own hands and let the blood spill on me. I'm so unlucky, Maria."
He chattered in a low voice like he was talking in his sleep.
But Maria had already taken the lead and walked away.
For the hunters in Yanan, this kind of muttering that seems completely abnormal to ordinary people is actually considered normal.
So Lan En and Maria didn't think much about it.
"I will be back soon." Maria greeted her uneasily, "I will give you another bottle then."
"Yes, yes." The hunter on the roof of the car pressed down the cowboy hat on his head and said solemnly, "You better hurry up. Hurry up."
The two of them continued walking inside.
But now the sound in the environment is so silent, it's almost...
It’s like the ocean is ‘dead’!
This strange silence made Lan En feel uneasy.
This is the deepest and most dangerous nightmare that makes an old hunter like Simon even forget how many times he has died. Is its deepest secret really so easy to find?
Now, Lan En has found the key point where the clues converge, but even if he finds this key point, will the secret really be so easy to solve?
The witcher doesn't know.
But in Yanan, the development of things will not stop just because you say ‘I don’t know’.
How could the fantasy dreams of the ancient gods consider mortals?
The closer we get to the small fishing village, the deeper the water on the ground becomes, and now it can reach the top of our feet.
And Lan En and Maria were within the scope of the small fishing village.
This small fishing village is eerie and dark.
Most of its buildings are made of wood and masonry, but how could wood survive in such a humid environment for so long?
Many of the wood have become moldy and rotten, but many barnacles that should live on the rocks in the sea and on the surface of marine organisms are densely clinging to these houses.
It’s like the barnacles that were supposed to be eroding and clinging inward are now supporting the structure of the house.
The opening of the barnacle looks like a bunch of eyeballs crowded together.
There are also things like seaweed hanging on it.
It makes people wonder whether these houses are built in the sea or on land.
Being in a small fishing village, you can actually see the sun amidst the heavy clouds. But the sun
Light has no temperature and cannot dispel uneasiness.
The clouds and mist around the sun surround it. The shape of the clouds and mist is very strange, like fungi that surround, spread and erode towards the center of the sun.
The large shiny disc is covered with spots.
"What the **** was that?"
Maria also looked at the sun in the sky in shock. Obviously, even the native Yannan people had never seen this scene.
Lan En thought he was ignorant.
They continued to walk inside, and the dark water under their feet was gradually mixed with gray-white traces.
That’s a lot, a lot of gray blood!
The smell of burnt wood and the fishy smell of marine life suddenly became strong, and blood-red firelight came from the decaying and weird house.
Houses were burned apart and collapsed under the flames.
There were also sounds of sharp blades tearing flesh, as well as human laughter.
It was a group of hunters hunting in front of a burning house.
They are besieging a huge fish-man. This fish-man is at least five or six meters tall, and the weird weapon in its hand is as big as a man!
Every time it swings its weapon, its huge weight and kinetic energy can directly tear a house apart!
But under siege by three hunters, it was like a tuna being sliced open and bled with one blade after another.
It is strong, but strength alone is useless in the face of those precise and sharp knives.
The hunters didn't seem to be in a hurry to kill, it was more like they wanted to drain the blood of the huge creature in front of them while exercising.
