Giant of Light: I am the Old Ones

Chapter 12 Friends, Delicious

Soderling stopped, his face covered by beard and hair began to move, as if he was observing or smelling something.

Sheriff Black asked, "What's wrong?"

Soderling said angrily: "I lost track, that guy disappeared from my senses."

Amanda felt that it was still necessary to remind her, and then said: "I seem to hear a neighing sound coming from the place where Daniels tied the horse. We need to go back and take a look."

Zussman pretended to smile casually, patted Amanda on the arm and said:
"My superhuman Amanda, how can your ears be so smart? We are several kilometers away from where we enter the mountain. Even if a lion calls there, no one can hear it."

"alert!"

Daniels was at the end of the team and felt something was not right. He turned around and saw that from the surrounding woods, he was actually walking staggeringly. At some point, several corpses wearing Edward Factory uniforms walked towards him. They had ferocious faces and looked towards them firmly. Come here.

Apparently, they were all transformed into corpses today.
These things were probably the gifts left by the cultist to Blake and the others.

"That guy must be nearby. He can't find more people temporarily. This is his last trump card."

Sheriff Black shouted loudly to encourage Pearson's three cowards to aim at the nearest ghoul.

Amanda hurriedly reminded: "Shoot in the head!"

Sheriff Black subconsciously aimed and shot at the head. The running ghoul seemed to have been hit hard on the head by a sledgehammer. His head and neck fell backwards, and he subconsciously moved forward from the waist down, falling directly over. On the ground, there was no movement.

"Haha, it seems that solving these things is not that difficult." Zussman clenched his fist proudly, "There are seven more, Chief Black, come on!"

Daniels was a little worried, patted the three Pearsons who were stunned and didn't dare to move, and said:
"Follow me, don't be attacked by those things."

He led Amanda and the three of them slowly back behind Sheriff Black, making sure there were no corpses in the direction behind him.

These running dead people seemed to have some mental problems. They ran straight towards the ground without even using trees as cover.

Under Chief Black's precise shooting, a total of eight ghouls were eliminated, and the nearest one was only three meters away from Chief Black.

"Keep going, that guy doesn't have many cards left." Sheriff Black became more and more convinced that the cultist was ahead, and he was at the end of his rope!

Amanda's bad feeling started to creep up again, and this wasn't right at all.

These ghouls pose no threat at all when they are well prepared and can be easily dealt with.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like bait, inducing them to get closer to the depths of Mammoth Mountain and away from the town.

"Sheriff Black, we have to be careful, it's getting dark, it will be very dangerous in the woods after dark!"

Amanda yelled, and when everyone else was subconsciously preparing to move on, he was the only kid who yelled out.

Blake whispered: "Amanda, you can't be safe until you catch the cultist. He is right in front of us, close at hand."

Amanda's bad feeling began to turn into panic, as if something was tugging at her heart.

Soderling stood motionless at the front, and no one noticed him, focusing on Amanda. He looked very uncomfortable at the moment.

"A family member of the evil god has awakened. It is Wendigo, the family member of the Winter God. Amanda, you are about to usher in your first battle. Accept me, and we will win."

Omega's voice was no longer empty, but gentle and ethereal, comforting Amanda.

Amanda calmed down under the gaze of everyone, and looked at the front, where Soderling stood motionless in the shadow of the dim woods under the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Chief, Soderling seems to have something wrong?"

Zussman was the first to notice Soderling's abnormality. When he dealt with those ghouls just now, according to Soderling's temper, he should take the initiative to deal with those ghosts by crushing their heads.

But he just stood there, waiting for Sheriff Black to kill the ghoul one after another with his shotgun.

Sheriff Black, who was focused on finding traces of the cultists, even somewhat ignored the changes in his old friend.

When he also realized that something was not right with Soderlin, he recalled Soderlin's crazy performance before, and motioned for everyone to retreat slowly.

He lowered his muzzle so as not to show his intention to attack, and slowly approached Soderling.

Damn it, you can't get sick at this time.

Obviously Soderling has been normal for such a long time, and it's not winter yet, it's not the time to get sick.
Blake was thinking, and before he entered Soderlin, he heard a terrible roar:

"Stop, don't, come forward. I, I can't suppress my desire. I, I'm so hungry. I don't want, I don't want to eat"

Soderling's hair began to turn white under the gaze of everyone, becoming more and more conspicuous in the gradually darkening environment.

This was a scene that had never appeared before when Soderlin was ill.

In the past, at best, the edges of the hair were white, and they would fade after returning to normal.

"Get away from me, or kill me quickly, kill me!"

Soderling's huge body began to tremble abnormally. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were filled with the greed of the beast and the desire for hunger.

But he was trying his best to suppress it, and he didn't explode.

The huge body turned hard, threw itself in front of the corpse that had just died, and began to gnaw on it.

In his desire, the smell of these corpses is far less tempting than the living people standing in front of him.

But Soderling's last sanity prevented him from directly attacking those friends and food!

Food, it’s all food!Kindred, friends, and food!

My friends, it’s delicious!
"FriendFood!"

Soderling raised his body and roared, the snow-white hair completely covered the whole body, and the blood of the devoured corpse stained the white hair on the chest, which was very conspicuous.

It is very hungry, and the food in its mouth is not delicious at all.Friends who are standing, Xiang.

It stood up and walked towards its friend.

Sheriff Black felt a little panicked for the first time. He had never seen his friend in such a posture.

He tried to reach out his hand. He had successfully comforted this big guy many times, and he would definitely succeed this time!

If he believed this, he would touch its outstretched arm.

"Sheriff, be careful!"

Zussman rushed over, grabbed Black by the waist, and brought him to the back.

Blake looked up and saw the white-haired faces.

Soderling's original face has been covered, replaced by a face with fangs and an evil smile on his facial features.

The first words that came out of the desecrated mouth were: "Delicious, my friend."
