When it was almost noon, Mist and Randall had completed their work. After eating some heated dry food, they left the ruins and headed towards the settlement that Mist and Randall had established some time ago.

Click to move over.

That settlement was not very far from the ruins of the White Deer Tribe, and Leo adjusted his speed through his psychic wings, so that the group of them had already returned to Mist and Randall's settlement just as night fell.

However, when they arrived outside the settlement and could clearly see the houses inside, Leo, Sylvia and Tessa Moka could not help but frown, because they all found that something was wrong with the settlement. Logically speaking,

In such cold weather, we must light a fire, and the chimney should be smoking, but there is no smoke coming out of the chimneys of all the houses.

Compared to Leo and the others, Mist and Randall obviously did not notice these situations. After entering the settlement, they couldn't wait to shout loudly: "Old Taylor, lame Quinn, Robert, little Mist,

We are back!"

However, after their excited voices spread, they did not receive any response. At this moment, they also felt something was wrong. They glanced at each other, then quickly rushed towards the nearest house, then opened the door and entered the house, followed by the

There was a scream of terror.

At this time, Leo's spiritual net had spread outwards, covering this small settlement, and he quickly understood the situation inside the settlement.

I saw one to three corpses in the house here. All the corpses were lying on the bed, and the heads of the corpses had been chopped off. It seemed that all the dead were attacked and killed while they were sleeping. The murderer was later

Cut off their heads and take them away, and the only people who would do this are bounty hunters who are attracted by the rewards.

"No! No!" Mist and Randall rushed out of the room in panic, and then ran to other rooms to check the situation. However, they all got the same result, and their shouts gradually became louder and louder.

became a cry.

Compared to Leo, although Sylvia and Tessa Mocha were not clear about the situation inside the house, they could tell from various signs that something was wrong. They entered a house to check the situation, and what they saw was,

It made them all feel extremely angry.

Because such tragedies and scenes make them feel the same.

Although witch hunting is no longer popular, the church has even accepted witches, and even the Orthodox Church has recruited witches like Sylvia, but the reward for witch hunting is still hanging in the underground world and has not been cancelled. Knowledge

No one dares to take on this kind of job anymore.

In the past, the situation of witches was not much different from that of these mutated fugitives. They were all hunted down as prey. After being killed, their heads were cut off and used in exchange for money. Even Sylvia and Tessa Moka

They have never experienced such hard times, but they can still understand what kind of situation it was like from the records of their predecessors, and now this scene has awakened bad memories in their hearts, making them feel extremely miserable.

anger.

"Can you track those beasts?" Sylvia asked Tessa Morka.

Tessa Mocha, who was born in the Mozan Wilderness Jungle, did not respond immediately, but she had already begun to look at the clues around her and used her abilities to try to find the whereabouts of the bounty hunter who had done these evil things, but after careful inspection,

Afterwards, she could only shake her head regretfully and said: "It took too long, and the ice storm blew away all the traces. I couldn't find any clues about their departure."

Sylvia had a look of disappointment on her face. Even Tessa Mocha couldn't find any trace of the perpetrator leaving, and it would be difficult for her to find any useful clues.

At this time, Mister and Randall had also controlled their grief, and their tears could not stop flowing out. When these tears fell down, they quickly froze in such an extremely low temperature place and became sticky.

An ice mask formed on their faces.

Although they did not get along with these people for a long time, after all, they escaped together and passed through the dangerous black forest swamps together. It can be said that they are comrades who share the joys and sorrows, and their feelings are naturally not low. Now all the lives that were once alive have died in

When I came here, I was naturally very sad.

Originally, they wanted to ask Sylvia and the others to help find the murderer and avenge these people, but they happened to hear Tessa Mocha's words, and a look of despair gradually appeared on their faces.

"As for clues..." Leo on the side suddenly spoke, and then walked into a room not far away. After a while, he took out something similar to a decoration, handed it to Sylvia, and said: "This

The things were incompatible with the furnishings in that room.

It should not belong to the owner of that room. There was a lot of blood on it. It was stuffed under the table. Judging from the situation, the owner of the room was not dead when he was killed. He pulled it from the person. I hope someone can use this to find those things.

Bounty hunter, avenge them."

Mist immediately said: "That's old Taylor's house. He is the captain of our escape team and has rescued many people in the swamp."

"The people here must have been drugged." Leo continued: "There are some stews of wild beasts on the dining tables in all the houses. It seems that someone drugged the wild beasts with drugs that can make people unconscious, and then waited.

The people here captured the beast, stewed it into broth, and let everyone eat it. After they were unconscious, they entered the village and killed them."

While listening to Leo's analysis, Sylvia took the metal ornament in her hand and looked at it. However, in her eyes, the metal ornament was just an ornament with the characteristics of a northern tribe, and there was nothing strange about it.

Sylvia did not understand the details and origin of this ornament, so she could only hand it to others. Tessa Mocha also did not see anything special about this thing after taking it.

"Can you show me?" Randall suddenly asked.

Tessa Mocha handed it over after hearing this.

After Randall took the ornament and looked at it, the look on his face was both shocked and confused.

"Do you see the origin of this thing?" Sylvia noticed the look on Randall's face and asked.

"Yes." Randall nodded and said: "A few months ago, before mutations appeared, Mist and I participated in an expedition team to the North to inspect the situation of the tribes in the North.

At that time we met a northern trading tribe called the Longhorn Tribe. They acted very friendly at that time.

Not only did they allow us to join their tribe and record their lives, they also took us to other tribes to learn about the living conditions of the tribes there. This settlement was also told to us by that tribe. This ornament is called Kaka Tupa, and it is their

It is an accessory that can only be worn by warriors in the tribe who have endured cold winter journeys.”

"So the people who came here were killed by the people from the Horned Tribe." Sylvia said in a deep voice.

Mist kept saying from the side: "Impossible! They are very friendly. They were very friendly during the time we were with them, and we can also know from the mouths of other tribes that they are a peaceful tribe..."

"The reason why they are peaceful is because you were still normal people when they faced them. But now that everyone here is a mutant, and they are all dominant mutants, they will probably change their attitude." Leo said in a cold tone.

Said: "Didn't you mention before that the entire Velen Continent has a very bad attitude towards mutants, although on the surface

Only the Hannossa League has officially announced a ban on mutants, but it is unknown whether the French Empire and the United Kingdom of France have done anything secretly, and the attitudes of the underground organizations in these countries may also be problematic.

They have had more contact with the South, so they may not be unaffected, and in their eyes, the people here are even less than human beings."

Hearing Leo's words, Mist and Randall didn't know what to say. Although they wanted to refute Leo's words, they couldn't find any possibility to refute, because in their subconscious, they had already

Think of yourself as subhuman.

"Are you still going to avenge them now?" Sylvia looked at the two people who were somewhat lost and asked in a deep voice.

Mist and Randall showed hesitation on their faces. They looked at each other and seemed to understand each other's thoughts. They nodded and said, "Yes, I want to avenge them!"

Sylvia asked again: "Since you have followed the long-horned tribe for a period of time before, should you know the whereabouts of the long-horned tribe?"

"Yes." Mist nodded and said: "I once talked with them. They said that after winter, they will go to Ferut to spend the winter. Only the young tribesmen and their guides who participated in the cold winter tour,

They will continue to walk in the north, and they will not return to Ferut until they kill enough prey to redeem their merits."

"Felt? Is it the Ferut at the end of Nagato Avenue?" Sylvia asked in confirmation.

"Yes." Mist nodded and admitted.

Leo on the side also searched for information about Ferut in his mind after hearing this. There are many connecting channels between the French Empire and the Northland, but one road that people from the French Empire often take is the Nagato Avenue. This road is the French Empire.

After King Lan ascended the throne and became the Emperor of France, he spent a huge amount of money to build a passage. Because a large number of stone walls were built at both ends to show the achievements of the past emperors of France, it looked like a gate extending into the distance from a distance.

, hence the name Nagato-dori, but the original name has long been forgotten.

The Nagato Avenue connects the Nagato County to the south, which is one of the royal territories and the main recruiting ground for the Royal Guard. On the other side to the north is Ferut, which is the largest city in the Northland and is also used by some who have been to the Northland.

People call it the City of Thousand Tents.

Although the tribes in the North have adapted to urban life, they still like to live in tents, so they deliberately build their houses in the shape of tents, so that except for a few buildings in Ferut, they are French.

Apart from the modern-style buildings, the other buildings are all tent-style buildings. From a distance, it looks like there are countless tents set up in the city.

In the past, the tribes in the north all found their own places to spend the winter, but now almost all tribes will gather in the big city of Ferut, because in this big city there are not only strong walls and houses to block the wind and snow in the north, but also plenty of food.

The supplies allow them to spend this winter comfortably.

So when Mister mentioned that the horned tribe would spend the winter in Ferut, Leo and the others did not show any surprise.

"It seems that they regard the mutated refugees here as prey," Tessa Moka is no stranger to this kind of winter pilgrimage. In fact, there are still many tribes in the wilderness tribes of Moissan Continent who are doing this.

It was similar to a warrior parade, so she asked again: "What are those meritorious deeds? Are they equivalent in money?"

"Yeah!" Mist nodded and said, "They will estimate the merit based on the value of the prey. The higher the value of the gift, the greater the merit."

"This means that the bounties on mutants have now spread to the tribes in the North." Tessa Mocha analyzed: "Only those high bounties on mutants can make the mutants here have the ability to be treated as

The value of the prey, otherwise, those long-horned tribe pilgrims would not be able to take risks and waste time targeting the people here."

"It's all our fault." Randall suddenly blamed himself at this time and said: "We brought them here and let them settle here. I'm afraid those pilgrims from the Longhorn Tribe also wanted to come here.

We took shelter from the storm and found them, and it's all our fault."

Hearing Randall's words, Mist opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, and her face showed strong self-blame and guilt.

"It's useless to talk about these things now." Sylvia pulled the two of them out of their self-blame mood and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

Mister and Randall looked a little confused when they heard this, because they had always wanted to settle down here, live a secluded life, and study the customs and customs of the northern tribes.

But the scene here now breaks their illusions and makes them realize that Northland is not a shelter for mutants like them. Now is just the beginning. In the future, more Northland tribes may join in the fight against mutant escapees.

During the hunt, the northern land may be more dangerous than the southern countries.

When the two of them were at a loss for their future life, Sylvia suggested: "I'll give you two choices. One is to send you to Vinaya Port, which is the real sanctuary for your mutants. The other is to send you to Vinaya Port.

The second is that I arranged for you to stay in the United Kingdom. Although the United Kingdom may not have a very good attitude towards mutants, with my relationship, you should not be put in danger."
