The residents of this small village received Lan En and Poppy warmly, at least on the surface.
Beyond Lan En’s front, people will still subconsciously resist contact with the witcher.
The village elder is a man named Mut, who looks to be in his forties or fifties. His face is gloomy after living in poverty for too long.
The linen shirt on his body has become tattered and threaded at the corners, and he wears a pair of shiny leather boots on his feet.
He invited Lan En to stay at his home tonight.
"We sincerely thank you, Master Demon Hunter. Those glowing beasts outside have caused our village to suffer for a long time. Every night, we honest villagers can only hide in our own homes. He buried his head in prayer in his little nest, not even daring to look out."
At the dinner table, Lan En slowly ate the dinner of the village chief and elders.
The mushroom soup was nothing new, and the bread was dry and hard. I guess the flour was mixed with acorn powder.
The elder described a picture of an honest and dutiful village living a difficult life under siege by unknown monsters.
Lan En raised his eyes and looked at him.
"That's the Nether Dog, Mr. Mutter. You don't know that they are very famous among the people for this kind of thing."
"What a Nether Dog Master, we are all honest The honest farmers are different from the murderous and evil green bitches in the forest next to them. We don’t know what the monster is, and we don’t want to know. "
He. Lying.
When Lan En heard this, he had already made a judgment without even raising his head from the soup bowl to observe his expression.
If he really didn’t know the folk rumors about the ghost dogs coming to chase evil, why did he compare it to the tree spirits who do all kinds of evil?
It’s just that he didn’t know yet how to attract these ghost dogs. Was the crime committed by the village elder or by many villagers together?
In rural areas, it is not uncommon for villagers to cover up each other or even cooperate with each other to do things that violate morality and law.
The matter of the three ghost dogs should not be that bad
Lan En himself has no experience, but he is just planning to deal with the Cormorant Curse matter first, and then ask the experienced Geralt asked for advice.
So I directly asked the village elders if there were any special scenery nearby that would be suitable for a tryst.
This is related to Baron Ham's lifting of the curse.

Ask him to cooperate well.
But contrary to Lan En’s expectation, this time he tried to pull off the tiger’s skin with great success in other villages, but it failed to make him submit to Mutt.
On the contrary, this man seemed to want to threaten him in turn.
"Ah, this is about Lord Baron turning back into a human being"
When Mutt spoke with an uncontrollable happy tone, Lan En's eyes had already narrowed slightly. .
Sure enough, the next moment
"Master Demon Hunter, this is a big deal. You, you must not let this job go wrong."
Mu Te swallowed nervously, but did not let himself avoid staring at Lan En's cat eyes.
"You, you should do us a favor. As long as we deal with the monster wandering outside the village, we will cooperate with anything."
The young man looked at the man in front of him and felt scared. , but the village elder who insisted on holding on to the message pursed his lips.
Damn it, we really met this guy
The reason Lan En used the name of Baron Hamm to get people from various villages to actively cooperate was because of Baron Hamm’s intimidating power. It is indeed big in the hearts of the villagers.
The baron who can shake the grain shovel when collecting taxes is the biggest power holder to the villagers.
But what if the name of Baron is not the most intimidating in a village?
For example, a monster wanders outside the village.
At this time, the other party had the courage to threaten the people sent by the baron.
The Baron wants me to work, but I will be torn apart by monsters now. If you don’t help me deal with the monsters, whoever is willing to do this job will do it
Mut’s face is full now Looking at Lan En humbly and pleadingly, he almost knelt down before him.
But in fact, he is the one threatening Lan En now.
He thought that the witcher, like him, was a person who relied on the Baron to make a living, so he should not dare to mess things up no matter what.
In this era of limited information, even village elders mostly do not have extensive knowledge.
Lan En shook his head, preparing to reject him directly.
If you let Lan En encounter a monster that is ravaging the village on the road, he will most likely draw his sword and go up to it. But you have to use a coercive attitude to force him to work
Even if I want to kill the monster, I have to wait until you have learned a lesson before I do it.
It doesn’t make sense that a good person must be pointed at a gun
But in Lan En

When he was about to refuse, Mutt had already started to describe the monster to him.
“It was an ethereal, shadow-like demon spirit. She always appeared at noon, and the villagers who saw her seemed to have been baked dry. We have been afraid to go there for two years now. I left the house between noon and two o'clock in the afternoon."
"Please, please be kind and get rid of this thing."
Lan En, who was originally prepared to refuse directly, now but stopped about toWords that rush to your lips.
His cat eyes looked at the pleading Mutt with a strange expression, but the words in his mouth became.
"Okay, no problem."
Mut jumped up happily and walked out of the house, announcing the good news to the villagers, which caused a round of cheers.
Lan En in the room calmly looked at the back of the village elder.
The reason for the temporary change of mind was because of the monster
The daytime demon spirit.
It is said that when the sun reaches its highest point, a demonic spirit that looks like a sunburnt woman wearing a white robe sometimes appears. These are day spirits, most of whom are transformed from young women who died violently before their weddings.
With emotions of pain and resentment, he and his phantom form a circle in the sun and dance the dance of demon spirits. Ordinary people will be confused by the supernatural power and join in.
But in the end, all that will be left is a dried corpse.
This is a bit too coincidental, isn't it?
Two years ago, Fresnet had a falling out with his lover and was cursed to become a cormorant. In this village where they once had a tryst, daytime demons started to appear two years ago.
This kind of female demon spirit was born with the anger of love and hatred.
Lan En felt that he was about to get a clue.
"Sir, we are not sure that it is the day spirit. The farmers' words are always inaccurate because they lack knowledge and always like to exaggerate."
Mentos Lan En was cautiously reminded not to rush into determining the type of monster and formulate a battle plan just because of what the village elder said.
Many master demon hunters died on this.
"I understand, let's go to the site to see for ourselves tomorrow."
As a demon hunter, Lan En always adheres to a cautious style.
