Killing the US fear starts from the fatal bend

14 Mist
The few people who were relieved from the tense atmosphere were relieved. Although the plan made in advance was completely useless, the final result was good anyway. All three weird crows were wiped out, and no one was hurt.

Mason took advantage of the night to go out to take a look. The thick fog surrounding him had not yet dissipated. Several people were worried that there were still crows that had not yet appeared, so they dared not be careless. Except for Luke who was too sleepy because of consuming too much spiritual power, the others were as usual. They took turns holding guns to watch the night, and spent the first peaceful night in a few days.

Early the next morning, Luke was still indulging in a dream, and was suddenly awakened by a burst of cheers. It turned out that the fog that had been hanging around the farm began to dissipate and become thinner.After a while, the fog disappeared completely, and a police car rolled over the damp soil and stopped at the gate of the farm.Jones and another policeman got out of the car one after another, pointed their guns at the interior of the warehouse, and shouted: "Hey, old Mason, is that you in there?"

Mason responded loudly: "Jones, it's me, we're here with the Refetts."

Jones recognized several people on the farm from a distance, and walked over with his colleagues, hesitated, and finally said: "Mason, I came with your son Luke yesterday, and we lost contact after we entered the mist to explore. , I searched around the dense fog for a long time last night but still didn't find any trace of him."

Mason stood up to what he said, and replied, "Luke arrived at the farm yesterday. We really had a thrilling night last night. He helped a lot and was exhausted. He is still resting now."

Just as he was talking, Luke, who was awakened, had already walked out of the warehouse door.

Seeing the reappearance of Luke who disappeared overnight, Jones let go of the anxiety and self-blame in his heart, walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Hey, boy, how did you get in yesterday. I have a lot of friends with my men. Excellent young men are all inexplicably walked out after entering the fog within a few minutes. Yesterday you disappeared, I thought you were captured by aliens."

Luke knew that Officer Jones was concerned about him, and his heart warmed up, but he didn't want to reveal his extraordinaryness, so he said vaguely: "Maybe it's because my parents are here. We have a deep blood connection. You won't get lost in the fog."

Mason and Mrs. Lillian laughed heartily when they heard this.

Afterwards, Mason concealed the strangeness of the crow, and told Police Officer Jones about his experience of being trapped on the farm for the past few days and being attacked by wild animals and birds. As for how the dense fog appeared and dissipated, he also explained Not sure.

Police Officer Jones, who was almost up all night, had a little understanding of the situation, and took his subordinates back to Cheng County to rest.

On the other side, Lu grabbed Mason, frowned and said, "I don't think this matter is completely over yet, there should be some things that haven't been resolved yet."

Although after killing all three crows, the dense fog cleared and everyone on the farm could leave freely, but Luke always felt that the dense fog was not brought by the crows, and there should be other monsters hiding in the dark, and those crows also It's just a puppet pushed down on the surface.

And the monsters that have not yet appeared should be the real behind-the-scenes masters with the ability to summon dense fog.At the same time, its frontal combat ability should not be too strong, so after all the crows used to fight were eliminated, there was nothing to do, so they had to dispel the fog and let everyone leave.

The basis for Luke's deduction is very simple. After he killed three crows, Goldfinger did not respond, and the experience value did not change. The crow is probably not a separate monster individual, but just a part of a monster. Or a manipulated puppet.

Mason already knew that Luke was extraordinary, and when he heard Luke say that the incident was not over yet, he subconsciously believed his words.He hurried to the direction of his broken pickup, intending to drive to chase Jones.

Lu stopped him and said, "The police can't do anything when it comes to supernatural powers. In fact, I want you to take Mom and Refite and leave the farm first, and I will check it myself."

Hearing his son say that he had to face the possible danger alone, Mason directly refused: "No, Luke, I can't let you face the monster alone."

Luke played with Winchester, attached his psychic energy again, and showed his father, "You saw it last night, I am not an ordinary kid. I need to check the farm by myself, and come back if there is no danger. If there is any danger, you may become a drag on me if you stay here."

The impulsive emotions that dragged Mason down, he calmly thought about it, and persuaded himself to admit that his son had grown up and no longer needed his own protection. Instead, he could protect himself in turn and become an adult who could take care of himself.

After convincing Mason, Luke handed over the others and explained the situation.Several people communicated the follow-up details. Although Mason and Lilian agreed to leave temporarily, they firmly opposed going directly to Cheng County to take refuge. At most, they would wait nearby the farm.

Luke thought that this would basically guarantee their safety, so the two sides each took a step back, and Mason took the rest of them into the car and left the area of ​​the dense fog before, watching and waiting on the county road.

After a few people left, Luke took a shotgun and started patrolling the surrounding farmland, looking for unusual things.

After experiencing the dense fog, the farm was silent, not a single sound of birds and mosquitoes.

Luke carefully observed his surroundings, and suddenly, a strange-looking scarecrow caught his attention.It was placed in a corner of the field, with a few hemp ropes wrapped around its body, as if it had been tied up by someone.The clothes on the scarecrow look very old, and there are some strange symbols on them.

Luke observed the scarecrow from a distance, and as the distance gradually narrowed, he could vaguely feel a faint energy surge on the scarecrow.When the identification ability is touched, a translucent information box appears:
【Fear Scarecrow】:
