Chapter 923 This Is Absolutely None of My Business!
The dusk in the Black Forest comes much earlier than in other places.
Once the sunlight weakens, it is often dark here. If you are not an experienced hunter, you will easily get lost here.
After setting the trap, the mayor and others will not be stupid enough to squat there. After observing for a while, they gave the camera to a militiaman and asked him to remember to record the video as evidence.
If they really killed a rare wild animal by mistake, this would be a guarantee of escaping the crime.
Then the mayor went back to the town to handle official business.
Only the sheriff, with four strong militiamen and the old hunter, squatted on the tree, hoping to catch the foreign invader as soon as possible.
If possible, the sheriff hoped that the other party was not a rare and protected animal.
In this way, he could directly order to open fire, and pickle the other party's head and hang it on the wall of his living room to show off.
As for whether they can attract the other party, according to the old hunter's analysis of several attacked hare nests nearby, they all realized that because the other party seemed to only eat the internal organs, the number of small animals in the Black Forest was obviously insufficient, and the frequent attacks by the other party were proof of this!
Their trap has a lot of fresh food. As long as the other party is still hunting in this black forest, there is no reason to let it go!
"It's almost five hours."
The sheriff squatting on the tree shook his head and looked at the time on the metal pocket watch given as a gift by his grandson who went to study in the ancient Eastern country. He felt that his body was a little weak.
The old hunter had been dozing off. He seemed to hear the sheriff's mumbling. He opened his eyes slightly and looked at the sheriff's metal pocket watch. He was about to say something to cheer everyone up.
The old hunter suddenly exclaimed and clenched the double-barreled shotgun in his hand.
"Did you notice it?"
"The sound of insects in front disappeared all of a sudden!"
"Huh?"
The sheriff and others really didn't pay attention to these, but seeing the old hunter's serious expression, they also cheered up out of their trust in the oldest hunter in the town.
As a gust of cold wind whistled over.
These people who couldn't help but shivered suddenly noticed that the animals in the cages were shivering.
These small animals lay on the ground one by one, closing their eyes and shaking their tails, looking like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
The abnormality of the small animals made them think that a hunter was approaching!
They all looked at the bushes in front of them.
But they saw nothing.
Then!
The old hunters suddenly saw that the wind caused by something invisible pushed away the bushes, causing the branches to shake and came to the trap.
Just when the old hunters saw such a common sense picture, the thought that the other party would be invisible popped up in their minds, and the next second!
Their minds were suddenly flooded by the appearance of a huge ghost dragon head.
These mortals who had no extraordinary power were directly covered by the dragon power of the attacking ghost dragon!
One by one, they fell into a state of shock and swayed on the tree.
Fortunately, the ghost dragon's order was only to hunt those small animals, and it had no interest in humans.
The dragon's power was even only affected and not targeted at those humans.
Otherwise, the ghost dragon, which is at least a level three supernatural creature, is a little weak in strength. It is only the size of a white-feathered chicken and cannot compare to an adult man.
In terms of mental strength, it is completely better than these ordinary people.
In addition, each ghost dragon is an expert in curse and dark witchcraft.
In the real world, if they fight with the military, they are probably much more powerful than living dragons of the same level for modern military groups!
"Roar!"
The ghost dragon quickly passed the traps set by the old hunter and pounced on the small animals.
With a low roar, the ghost dragon used its suddenly materialized sharp teeth and beak to easily tear apart the animals, ending their lives while taking away their soul fragments and internal organs such as heart and lungs.
As the ghost dragon finished dealing with the matter, it shook its body and continued to hunt and left the area. The sheriff and others finally woke up from the dragon's power.
After waking up, the sheriff saw the pile of animal corpses that had turned into debris under the tree.
He screamed with a chill in his heart, raised his rifle and aimed it at the tree, and fired randomly without caring whether he could hit the invisible monster or not.
Bang bang bang!
Suddenly, the sounds of various guns crackled and spread in the Black Forest.
A few minutes later...
The mayor, who had just finished praying to the Holy Lord and preparing dinner, received a call from the sheriff.
After yelling several times in a row, you are not kidding.
The mayor drove with a dark face to pick up the sheriff and his group who were shaking out of the Black Forest.
The sheriff saw the mayor, smiled bitterly, and waved to a militiaman to take out the camera.
This camera was originally brought for evidence, but it turned out to be something to prove their innocence.
The mayor saw the scene of the ghost dragon hunting in the camera that had never been affected by the dragon's might.
The fierce attack from the invisible monster made him sweat profusely.
Especially the old hunter mentioned that there were no signs of force on the trap he set.
They had a terrible guess...
That is, this invisible monster can fly!
The regional governor of Portland is one of the few politicians with considerable power in the Europa League.
After decades of development, almost 80% of the industries in the Portland area are controlled by their family and are in a monopoly position.
The predecessor, the former regional chief, and the current young and powerful regional chief are directly related by blood.
Of course, even though their family did it so openly.
Because they firmly stand on the side of the Europa League and oppose Mosca's infiltration.
Their Portland area is still a model of democracy and is undoubtedly an excellent area!
Because of this, after learning that there were traces of monsters in his black forest area.
The chief of the Portland region immediately summoned his cronies for an emergency meeting. Not only did he dispatch the special forces that only the regional chief had the authority to dispatch, but he also issued an overstepping order, allowing the army to be quickly mobilized.
In terms of operational efficiency, it is much faster than that on the Acropolis.
The regional chief is quite ambitious, trying to catch the truth before other forces take action.
If I could contact a supernatural force and become a friend for Portland...
Come to think of it, even in the alliance's council, no one dares to look down on himself anymore, right?
They don't dare to force themselves to accept alliance policies they don't want, right?
Yes.
When the man with glasses, who was a reporter, and a group of tourists happily got out of the bus and arrived at the foot of the historic Portland I Castle Mountain, they were about to check into the hotel at the foot of the mountain.
The sharp-eyed man with glasses noticed that several military helicopters were flying past his eyes under the setting sun.
After a while, the roar of airplanes was heard from high in the sky.
The bespectacled man raised his head and was shocked to find that there were actually a formation of fighter planes flying by.
Fighters flew over, and the ground suddenly trembled.
The tourists looked back and were shocked to see a military convoy on the horizon.
This convoy consists mainly of armored vehicles and troop-carrying trucks, but there are also many light tanks and self-propelled artillery vehicles mixed in.
Such a scene made the man with glasses panic.
"No...it can't be!"
The man with glasses wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "Is there something extraordinary happening in Portland too?"
"Maybe... maybe I'm overthinking it!"
The bespectacled man muttered and picked up the phone.
Fortunately, the Internet is not disconnected!
After searching the news, the man with glasses smiled.
It turns out that these are normal operations, and the Portland area is conducting a week-long military exercise just in case.
Judging from the scope of the exercise, the place where I am is just a place where the army marches through, and it will not affect the travel of myself and others.
At this time, the tour guide also received official information from the Portland area and began to explain to the tourists.
The tourists were so relieved that they even picked up their mobile phones and rushed to take pictures and post them on their WeChat Moments.
The officers and soldiers passing by didn't mind either. Some even stood on the roof and waved at the tourists as a sign of goodwill.
In fact, the officers and soldiers themselves thought this was just an unexpected military exercise, testing their emergency response capabilities.
"Um?"
"The troops were dispatched so soon?"
"The response from the Portland area was faster than I thought."
Xiao Yu also noticed the arrival of these troops.
After saying "enough" softly, Xiao Yu thought, and the ghost dragons in the black forest stopped hunting one after another, turned around and flew back to him.
All that was left was the circles of Portland troops gathered outside the forest.
Only when these officers and soldiers arrived at the place did they know that they were being asked to come into contact with extraordinary creatures. After seeing the video, they felt like facing a powerful enemy.
In order to be able to see invisible supernatural creatures that are suspected to be able to fly.
Night vision equipment, life detection equipment, and large-scale observation equipment have almost wiped out the Portland area.
Dozens of experts squatted in the camp, staring at the panel data on the equipment and getting busy.
In order to be the first to contact Chaofan, the Chief of the Portland Region urged officers and soldiers to carry out military operations overnight, and investigated the black forest like a dragnet.
However, this investigation except for the remains of a large number of hunted small animals.
They encountered nothing.
Not to mention living extraordinary creatures.
Even the excrement of extraordinary creatures was not seen by them.
"how so?"
"Is that extraordinary creature just taking a ride in the black forest and eating some game?"
The Portland Regional Director is undoubtedly very disappointed about this.
However, they quickly regained their composure and responded to the friendly help from other forces in the Europa League.
The Portland area, which has not been able to embrace the extraordinary thighs, naturally cannot refuse the friendly help from other forces.
Soon the first-hand information became available to all the major superpowers.
The good thing is that after research, the Europa Union felt that the supernatural forces were probably still nearby, so they brought the latest life detection equipment from the research institute.
The supporting life energy detectors were even distributed to the front lines, where they monitored the surrounding area.
This life energy detector is a device based on the current research progress in the real world from the remains of monsters such as Taotie.
Transformed from Mosca's latest official life detector, it can detect individuals with abnormally strong vitality by intelligently comparing the temperature changes of organisms and the frequency of impact on the surrounding air.
When the man with glasses and the tourists finished their breakfast, they walked into the ancient castle with excitement under the guidance of the tour guide for an adventure in the castle.
A jeep stopped on the driveway outside Portland I Castle.
A captain and two corporals in the jeep looked at the abnormal alarm displayed on the vehicle system and confirmed it according to the instructions to avoid abnormal alarms caused by the discovery of wild bears or tigers.
"Wait, this place is underground in Portland I Castle, right?"
"Let me see the map."
The captain turned on the military tablet and called up the three-dimensional map of the castle. He was slightly startled and said strangely: "It's strange. According to the detection instrument, the underground secret room in this place has been discovered by archaeologists for a long time, but it has not been opened for many reasons."
"That is a sealed place. According to the instructions, it is one of the secret underground mausoleums of Portland I! There should be no life!"
"And it is still considered to be a life form that reacts to abnormal life forms!"
The captain whispered, and he did not dare to be careless and quickly chose to report to his superiors.
At the same time
The bespectacled man and other tourists who entered the hall were watching a tall oil painting in amazement.
This is the oil painting of Portland I.
Compared with those oil paintings of modern art.
This famous painting was created by a master hundreds of years ago and has been restored many times.
It is obviously easier for ordinary people to appreciate and accept its artistic beauty.
The bespectacled man looked at the man in the oil painting and felt inexplicably emotional.
This bald, strong middle-aged man was a famous king who had led the Portland region to conquer the east and the west and won the reputation of the Spear of the Holy Lord.
Unfortunately, as soon as he died, the dynasty in his hands fell apart immediately. Later, Portland was repeatedly pressed to the ground by the powers and rubbed at will and treated as a feast, and was eaten up.
Perhaps, it is because such history has happened too many times on this land.
Even though the Portland region has joined the European Union, it still sings the opposite tune of the Love and Alliance policies on many major policies and maintains a high degree of independence, right?
"Huh?"
The man with glasses shook his head. After appreciating this masterpiece, he was about to follow the group to the corridor.
Suddenly he noticed that this tall and famous painting suddenly shook with a click.
A crack appeared from the top to the bottom in an instant.
"Damn it!"
The man with glasses widened his eyes, instinctively took a big step back, and raised his hands high to show his innocence.
"Oh my God, this is absolutely none of my business!"
"Even if you sell this kind of oil painting to me, I can't afford to pay for it!"
"What's going on?"
The staff were also alarmed by this strange phenomenon and rushed over.
The tourists who were originally ready to leave also ran back and chattered non-stop after seeing the cracks in the oil painting.
If it weren't for the castle's regulations prohibiting taking pictures, it is estimated that taking a picture and posting it on WeChat Moments would be inevitable.
Wow!
Suddenly, large pieces of the oil painting fell off.
Only the wall under the photo frame was left.
The wall was boiling hot, and bursts of hot air overflowed, and the people around retreated again.
The manager came over and saw that the painting had fallen off. He was a little nervous but not sad.
Although the quality of this painting is good, since it is put on display, it is naturally not a genuine one.
It is just a fake produced by a modern painter that can be mistaken for the real thing.
However, the change of the wall made the manager worried.
Just when he called his superior to report.
The change of the wall made his tongue knotted and his eyes widened.
It was the fable of the ancient Portland area that appeared on the wall.
The fable was written in blood red and appeared on the hot wall, clearly visible!
