Goblin Heavy Dependence

Chapter 78 Pink Light
"Sasha!"

The footsteps were like rain, and the dense branches and leaves slapped against the body as they moved at high speed, causing a slight tingling sensation on the surface of the skin.

Xia Nan walked quickly through the bushes, and the halfling lagged behind him a little.

In front, Tim, who had completely turned into a ghost, moved stiffly, like a puppet, and was far from as smooth as normal human activities.

He pushed his body forward simply by relying on his physical strength, and every step he took left deep footprints on the soft ground.

Coupled with the scorching bright sunlight above his head, his legs seemed to be stuck in water compared to that night, and his overall speed was slower by more than half a beat.

In Xia Nan's sight, the distance between himself and the other party was closing at a speed almost visible to the naked eye.

A silvery light suddenly flashed in the corner of my eye.

"That robin again?"

Thoughts flashed through my mind.

"How many times has this happened?"

Since he arrived in Caranfort, this robin with strange silver feathers has been noticed by him no less than three times.

It was as if there was something about himself that he was not aware of, which was invisibly attracting this strangely behaving bird.

pat-

The sound of flapping wings suddenly rang out in the air.

The robin flapped its wings to slow down, and its two tiny claws landed on a treetop nearby.

At the same time, not far ahead, Tim, who was about to be caught up by Xia Nan and the others, also stopped.

Instantly calm your mind.

Slow down and keep a certain distance from the enemy.

Xia Nan tightly grasped the burning hilt of the sword, his eyes fixed on the other party.

Suddenly, as if he saw something, his pupils shrank slightly.

The environment where the few of them are now is a quiet forest on the outskirts of Kalanfor.

Although it is not as lush as the misty forest where it is difficult to tell the direction, it is also filled with a lot of bushes and grass.

This means that people walking in the forest need to get very close to be able to barely see what is hidden by the vegetation ahead.

As Tim stopped and turned around, the white bones on the ground in front of him were exposed in front of the two men.

Left arm, right leg, right hand, left foot.

It was like some kind of sinister and cruel ritual.

Bones of different thicknesses and from different bodies are neatly arranged on the ground according to the standard human body structure.

The only thing missing from a complete human figure is the head and spine.

Xia Nan looked at the ground below the bones, where some obscure patterns were faintly carved.

I couldn't help but recall what happened in the past few days:
The disappearance of the victim's limbs, the dead pickpocket, Jeff's severed left leg, the short poem on the leather book...

All the details and clues were connected at this moment.

Heat rose from the surface of the wooden sword, and the water droplets condensed due to the temperature difference made the surrounding air vaguely blurred and distorted.

He raised his head suddenly, staring at the undead in front of him.

The desire to fight is surging.

Already ready for battle.

just,

One second, two seconds...

Tim, who was in sight, had just stopped.

He just stood there, motionless.

The tip of the rusty sword in his hand pointed to the ground and his head hung low.

The pair of eyes that originally had a hint of spirit in them were now completely pale and dead.

"what's the situation?"

Xia Nan was puzzled, but he didn't dare to move forward rashly, for fear of an ambush.

For a moment, the field fell into a state of silent stiffness.

A robin was perched on a treetop, combing its feathers leisurely.

"Crack."

The sound of branches breaking and unobstructed footsteps came from the bushes.

The soft golden semi-long hair shone brightly in the sunlight, and the branches and leaves in the forest rustled across the surface of the metal plate armor. Ingram's burly figure gradually emerged in the mottled shade of the trees, holding something in his hand.

"careful!"

Behind him, the halfling held the lute tightly in both hands, his palms turning slightly white from the force.

His hazel eyes were full of vigilance as he warned in a low voice.

In fact, he didn't need to say much.

As early as the moment Xia Nan discovered the sheriff, he had already secretly made preparations.

After all, the time and place of the other party's appearance were too coincidental.

Not to mention the guards they brought with them, they were all killed by Tim, and no one was able to report to the other party the direction of their pursuit.

Even if Ingram is lucky and finds the right road to get here, his speed is definitely not that fast.

unless……

"Tick."

A strong smell of blood suddenly rushed into my nose with my breath.

Xia Nan frowned.

As Ingram slowly walked out of the woods, the bloodstains on his sheriff's uniform that had not yet dried were revealed to the two men.

Dry white hair entangled the fingertips, and scarlet blood spilled onto the ground as he shook.

There was still traces of fear and panic on the old and thin face.

Eyes dull.

Ingram held the gravekeeper's head in his hand, grasping his hair.

The sheriff's face at this moment no longer had the friendliness and kindness he once had.

But it's not that morbid or crazy.

Just looked at the two of them calmly.

No ripples.

He did not take the initiative to explain his purpose, nor did he indulge in venting his emotions because of the imminent success of his plan.

Not a word was said.

His azure eyes glanced at everyone on the field.

Under the gaze of Shanan and Alton, he raised his hand and reached into his sleeve as if he was adjusting his clothes.

Her fingertips pressed against the golden sun pattern on the inside of her cuffs.

Pinch gently.

hum-

The blood-stained sleeves were torn into pieces of rags.

Using the holy light of the power of the sun god "Amaunator" as a container, the one-time spell stored in it burst out.

Under the influence of the invisible gravity in the air, the free magic particles are arranged and combined in a specific and regular way, gathering together in an instant like fireflies.

The light pink magic glow flickered, as if it had some kind of spirituality, following the user's wishes and locking onto the target.

Then, with a long flame tail, it turned into two miniature meteor-like light balls, swaying and flickering.

It fell with a scream of magic.

Can't even react!
Even as soon as Ingram was spotted, precautions were taken.

The tense muscles and ambiguous posture allow Xia Nan to respond instantly to changes in the situation, whether he is attacking forward or turning around to retreat temporarily.

But when that uncertain object flashing pink light was reflected in his pupils.

There is no chance of escape.

"Buzz!"

A ball of light formed by magic particles passed through the air and lightly fell into Xia Nan's body.

As if stuck in a quagmire, the pink glow spread rapidly, enveloping and covering everything.

The heart is still beating and the breathing is still steady.

But his body was controlled to stay in the same place as if time had stopped.

Second ring,

Enchantment,
