Chapter 35 35. Catching the cannibals
As Lan En expected, simple traps were placed in several places on the road.
Not too complicated, similar to what hunters would do to capture wild beasts.
Lann's observation skills dismantled these arrangents into pieces.
The roaring bear head necklace hung securely around his neck, which made Lan En even more at ease.
Because this shows that there is no trace of magic involvent in this area.
Everyone followed him all the way to a cave.
Lan En gestured to Phillip behind him at the entrance of the cave. This was the murderer's hiding place.
The witcher felt the wind direction at the entrance of the cave and determined that there was only one exit to the cave.
The sergeants prepared in a relaxed atmosphere. They hung a kind of iron lantern on their chests.
A candle is placed in the middle of a fully enclosed iron box, leaving only a small window that can be opened and closed on the outside.
The structure of this kind of lantern can focus the light for forward illumination, and if you hang it on your chest through a layer of armor, you will not feel burned.
It can be regarded as a kind of dieval war wisdom.
The sergeants filed in, and the sound of armors clashing and rubbing against each other seed urgent and dense under the echo of the cave.
Yes, Lan En and the soldiers no longer care about concealnt at this ti.
In the dim light of the fire, people could vaguely see a strange figure in the depths of the cave, looking panicked.
"Run, bastard! Run faster and see where you can go!" A leading soldier shouted with undisguised malice and anger. "How dare you eat people in Durnham! You can't even think of being hanged. We will tie you to a pyre and burn you alive so that you can atone for your sins!"
But even though he was shouting like this, the shield in his hand was never lowered from his face.
This undoubtedly helped him.
A stone flew out from the depths of the cave and hit the shield with a bang.
The shield was slightly tilted, but it returned to its posture in the blink of an eye.
Criminals who can eat people are undoubtedly the most threatening type. There is no way to let such people be caught without rcy.
The stone thrown just now would have hit the soldier's helt directly if it had not been blocked by the shield.
The helt can effectively protect the head, but this structure determines that even if the helt is slapped twice by the enemy, the person inside will be dizzy.
Let alone a heavy stone.
Historically, the unard skill of the Yenicheri troops was the famous "Jenichili Slap".
Resist! Okay! Continue to resist!
The soldiers' pace beca faster, and the anger of having their faith trampled on burst out together with the resentnt of wearing armor and going deep into the swamp.
Lann heard York shouting too.
You bitch, well make you beg to be burned at the stake!
Finally, a man couldn't stand the threat of approaching people outside. He threw a dozen stones like crazy and then pounced on them.
All the stones were blocked by the shield soldiers in front of the team.
And this man really wanted to know what terrible punishnt he was going to face. From Lan En's point of view, his purpose in rushing forward was to die more than to live.
A dagger as short as an arm did not protect the torso at all. It danced wildly and hit the soldier's blade.
He doesnt want to live anymore, dont kill him here.
The witcher has low-light vision, and the murderer's little thoughts were completely seen by Lan En, so he simply spoke to remind him.
What this guy did is fully worthy of all the torture in this world.
These veterans cooperated very well. While the murderer was entangled with one of the soldiers, three sword and shield soldiers raised their shields and surrounded him.
Three shields were squeezed inward, and the murderer's arm holding the dagger was caught in the gap, and it was broken with a click.
After screaming in vain, several one-handed swords were thrust through the gaps in the shield.
The tip of the sword was all pointed downwards, and most of it was stabbed in the thigh. When things have reached this point, it can be said that the dust has settled.
The nearly ten remaining soldiers did not even take action.
A group of people dragged the beast out of the cave and exposed it to the sun.
At this ti, everyone could see his appearance clearly.
Pale skin, deep-set eye sockets, and body shape data are quite consistent with those provided by Lan En.
He was wearing a black open-waisted animal skin vest, with no other coverings on his upper body.
A human palm serves as a pendant, with a cord passed through the wrist bone and worn around his neck.
The palm was cut off from the wrist and seed to have been treated with antiseptic treatnt, keeping it plump before being dried but not slly.
To prevent him from escaping, the soldiers simply made two holes in the soles of his feet with their swords.
From the instep to the sole of the foot, it is transparent from top to bottom.
As for whether you can get infected in the swamp?
He is going to be burned at the stake. Do I care if he is infected?
Philip is in a good mood.
Thanks to you, Master. Otherwise, if this **** was hiding here, we wouldnt know how hard it would have been to catch him!
Just rember the reward. Ugh, this **** slls so much of human flesh that it almost makes sick to my stomach.
Dont worry about the bounty! We captured him alive, and the bounty will definitely not be less!
Lan nodded, he also agreed with Phillip's idea.
Alive is more valuable than dead.
But looking at the cannibal who was still wailing, Lann beca a little more serious and made suggestions to Phillip.
"It's a good thing to complete the task, but let say one more thing, that guy should not be alone."
Huh? Is there a murderer?
Philipp was shocked, but Lan shook his head and waved his hands.
He was the only one who committed the cri in Durnham, but what Im saying is that this guy belongs to a group of cannibals.
"how do you know?"
The sergeant looked at Lan En suspiciously. The young man raised his chin and pointed at the palm necklace on the murderer's chest.
"Look at that necklace. A human palm, neatly processed and hung around the neck. This is an obviously ceremonial ornant. Only when you are in a certain targeted group will you be born." Ritual' and 'ornantal' needs."
Philip's eyes were as clear as a child's.
Seeing this, Lan En pursed his lips and touched his forehead.
Lets put it this way, followers of the Eternal Fire will leave fire patterns all over their bodies, but others will not do so.
Oh~ I understand. Philip nodded up and down, You an he believes in a cannibal sect?
You can think so. Lan En reluctantly agreed with this statent.
"Look at that palm necklace, the wrist incision has obviously been processed, and the wrist bones can be exposed cleanly. The antiseptic thod is also very good, which shows that they have eaten many people, and they can even use the palms of these people to find out a set of production The flow of decorations. They are organized, Philip.
Lan En earnestly asked him to be careful, and it would be best to strengthen the security forces to patrol the area.
But Philip said: "I can't do it, master."
This man spoke in a very plain tone, and the tone was so light that it was almost not like he was talking about a group of organized cannibals, but a few mischievous children.
We only have so many people, and we cant support more people.
"Perhaps you don't believe it, this world is not like this. In the past ten years, I have felt as if I have changed my life in another world. Kings, you beat , I beat you, until the ground was covered with blood, I don't know why. .In the past, no matter how poor Willen was, no one would steal a child, but now I have received dozens of reports of missing children in the past two months. We have to take care of this first, otherwise the farrs will not be able to farm with peace of mind. ?
Peoples hearts are broken, master. I can only say that when I encounter the cannibal sect, I will turn them over, but if I dont et them, how much can a king do in this world?
