The Laws of Werewolf Hunting

Chapter 179 A Beautiful Call

Regardless of how torturous this night was for Clayton and his party, it was also a night full of expectations for Barbara.

Even though her body was already dead, the female vampire couldn't help tossing and turning in bed, which woke her husband up many times.

She thought about Julius' words, full of hope for tomorrow.

"Food is plentiful",
What a delightful vocabulary!
Even if the blood is no longer rushing, she can happily spend the rest of the year with only the flesh of the corpse.

With the family's current income, it is absolutely impossible for her to eat meat and drink blood frequently. She can only occasionally buy some livestock flesh instead of human blood, but if she has those corpses, she can save even this little money— —Learning literacy requires a tuition fee.

With the longing for a better life, Barbara went out after cooking breakfast for her husband. She was going to the forest to find the treasures hidden by werewolves and wizards.

Unfortunately, besides her, there was a group of people who went out early in the morning to drop in with her.

Hook detectives dressed in black walked together and followed Barbara closely. They were going to survey the topography of this land and make an assessment report on the real objects. This work may continue for a few days in the future.

Barbara deliberately took a detour to cover herself, but she didn't expect to run into them.

"Good morning, madam, are you going into the woods alone?"

'Idleman' Robin Hood greeted her, his eyes wandering around the rich curves like a mouse.

Barbara is very familiar with this kind of sight. If in the past——when she was still alive, she would react with shyness or secret joy according to the mood of the day, but now she only wants to fill her stomach, so she doesn't have any emotion at all. With other thoughts, the tone is unavoidably tense and urgent.

"Morning, that's right, I'm going to get some berries or something" she gestured with the basket.

But it is very rare to meet such a beautiful woman in the country, and men want to talk to her for a while.

'Farmer' Kit walked a few steps faster, showing off his tall figure in front of Robin Hood: "The patrol team didn't catch the werewolf last night. It would be too dangerous for you to go into the woods alone. I wonder if you would like to reward me with Let’s go together and take care of each other.”

"Sorry, I'm afraid we won't be on the way later." Barbara evaded, she turned her head and saw Ian Lazarus walking behind, and smiled at him.

Ian asked the couple to meet Clayton, and Perot saw Clayton and others before he had a chance to be persuaded by her and was willing to let her go out.

This is simply a kindness.

Robin Hood slowed down, and stood in the same formation as Ace and Ian, who had never said a word.

He squeezed Ian with his elbow and asked in a low voice.

"Do you know?"

Ian, who was responding to Barbara with a smirk, trembled, turned his head and said helplessly: "She is the person that black-haired antique dealer is looking for, but I can't remember her name."

Robin Hood sighed in disappointment: "That's great, I wish I had gone then."

"She's married." Ian said, and he knew what Robin Hood was thinking when he saw Robin Hood's expression. "I've seen her husband."

He meant to dissuade, but Robin Hood was happier.

"That would be great! Looks like I have a chance."

He is a moral man, and moral prodigals usually follow two rules.

One is to pay attention to your love and my willingness in seeking pleasure, and the other is not to have sex with unmarried girls.

Chastity is the ticket for a solid marriage relationship. In order not to destroy the conclusion of marriage, gentlemen should restrain themselves even if they have desires. It is in line with invisible social morality to seek married women for sex. Marriage is only responsible for restraining property, not responsibility. It is not uncommon for love to arise, and it is not uncommon for the host and hostess of a family to have their own lovers.

Robin Hood and Kit took turns trying to strike up a conversation a few more times, but Barbara wasn't interested in them at all.

The virtuous gentleman has to stop when enough is enough.

The journey together was short, and they were about to part ways. Barbara turned around to say goodbye to the men.

A gust of wind blew behind her, and there was a shrill whimper among the dry and fallen trees. A dozen crows fluttered their wings and flew out of the forest, screaming in alarm.

The detectives squinted their eyes and stopped to watch. A crow landed on the top of a dead tree not far away, turned its head to look at them with all black eyes, and flew away quickly.

"Rabbit" Ace said, "I hope they're just eating the berries, or it'll be bad in a while. I don't miss the smell."

The other detectives chimed in.

Crows are scavengers and also eat berries and insects.

But with so many crows gathered here, they could only have picked up some dead animal and were gathering here for a feast.

Detectives aren't worried about danger though, and their firepower is strong enough to take most common carnivores head-on without getting in the way of their work.

'Farmer' Kit asked Barbara: "Ma'am, do you still insist on going into the woods alone? Maybe there is something you want where we are going."

In such a situation, ordinary women would not dare to continue walking alone.

Barbara is no ordinary woman.

She looked back only a moment, then turned back to reject them.

Kit shrugged, but he wasn't too angry. The leader Ace was still here, and he always had to focus on work first.

The two parties separated, one on the left and one on the right.

It's just that Ian Lazarus still looked back from time to time, looking in the direction Barbara left.

His body jerked violently, and a body bumped towards him. It turned out to be the red-haired Robin Hood. This idler hooked his shoulders.

"Why, you like that woman too?"

"I'm just worried about her. There may be something wrong with this forest."

Ian retorted, and then sighed helplessly, "Don't you think it's strange? We also came here yesterday. We didn't measure it the first time we walked, but went around completely, but we didn't see it at that time. or some dead animal, I'm afraid the beast the locals say might be here."

Crows often follow a powerful predator, and the leftovers after the hunter's feast are still a big meal for them.

'Farmer' Kit came over and explained using his own experience: "It's winter, the most barren time of the year. If there is no enough food to survive the winter, even if there are no beasts nearby, the animals will live on their own. Dead."

It was a reasonable explanation, but something still didn't feel right to Ian.

What's more, it would be worrying for the lady to go deep into the forest alone, even in ordinary times, wolves and wild boars have always been uncommon in the wilds of Dorne.

And how dangerous it would be if the werewolves that the locals said wandered here!

Robin Hood suddenly pushed him again, Ian staggered and looked over in astonishment, not understanding what it meant.

"Go!" Robin Hood shouted, "Look at your worried look. Since you are worried about that lady, go and protect her quickly! We are not illiterate, at least Boss Ace and I are literate and can make reports , Why do you have to squeeze several big men together?"

'Rabbit' Ace coughed.

Robin Hood reversed the narrative: "Well, the job is still important, but it's also important to have a good relationship with the local people."

Kit also came to help: "Our horses were all killed by that beast, and I don't know how long we will stay here after finishing the work. If Ian helps the lady, then there will be a local person to help talk, We can have a better life in the future.”

Armed detectives are actually not very popular. In the eyes of people other than their employers, they are potential criminals and they also need to be vigilant.

This convinced Ace, who waved at Ian Lazarus and let the lad go free.

Ian took a few steps back, then turned around uncertainly.

"I'm leaving?"

He himself didn't know why he was so nervous, maybe it was the last time he went to perform an important task independently, but what he saw after he came back was only related to the tragedy.

Robin Hood raised his right hand and shouted: "Come back and remember to tell us what happened!"

"Hold on a little longer," Kit said encouragingly.

Ace nodded at him: "If there is a battle, make good use of your gun." Finally, there is a more useful advice, but under the foreshadowing of the first two, this sentence seems to be reverie.

When men get together, they will inevitably miss women.

Yet Ian Lazarus had not yet touched a girl's hand.

He dispelled his fear, but fled in despair.

Barbara is very displeased with the crow's arrival.

These dark little beasts may guide her to get closer to the "treasure" faster, but it also means that her "treasure" has already been touched.

She hadn't eaten leftovers since her marriage, and Perrault had always loved her.

The vampire walked briskly into the deep forest with her basket on her arm, hoping to find the treasure before the crows ate too much.

However, there was a sound in the woods behind her, and she had to stop, and complained in her heart when she noticed the person coming.

Ian Lazarus came out from behind clutching his hat.

"Sorry, ma'am, I still think it's too dangerous to walk alone here, maybe that werewolf is hiding nearby."

"Mr. Ian, in fact, I will go back soon—" Barbara sighed aggrievedly. If this young man hadn't been so kind, she would have had a good meal today.

Ian scratched his head through the hat, apologized again, but had no intention of leaving.

He had already made up his mind to escort this lady and prevent her from being harmed. In addition to his instinctive kindness, there was also hatred in it.

His parents were killed by those deformed monsters.

And so was his brother.

The clergy call those things darkspawn.

If there was such an opportunity for him to shoot those monsters, he would do it even if it didn't cost money.
