C283 Human Skin
There was only one type of monster made up of ice elements in the crystal snow crack. Its attack power was not strong, and it did not pose much of a threat.
On the way to the mine, Wang Yan and the others had encountered many such monsters, but they were all killed by elfin Stick and Gold.
After arriving at the mine, they saw the figures of the slaves of Cold Country who were working hard to mine, as well as the few warriors of Flame Empire who were guarding the mine.
"It doesn't look like something has happened here. Did something go wrong with my premonition?"
Looking at such a harmonious scene, although Zhang Wei felt a little regretful that he didn't see the mysterious man that Wang Yan was talking about.
At the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief. At least he didn't have to face the situation of sacrificing his soul projection.
"There's no way something will go wrong with my perception." The elfin Stick felt that its ability was being questioned.
It immediately flapped its wings and flew in front of Zhang Wei. The hair on its head was about to explode.
It was an elf, and it was born with an ability that was extremely compatible with nature. Therefore, it could easily sense all the changes in nature.
The elfin Stick did not believe that there would be any problem with his senses. It must be that they had not found the real reason for this change.
"Sorry, sorry." Seeing that the elfin Stick's hair was about to explode, Zhang Wei reached out and touched its head. "I just said it casually. Don't take it to heart."
Wang Yan looked at the elfin Stick but did not say anything, although he did not think that there would be any problem with the elfin Stick's perception.
To be honest, after entering the crystal snow crack, Wang Yan's super strong perception did not let him sense that this place was dangerous.
It was either because they hadn't come into contact with any danger, or because the elfin Stick's sense had nothing to do with the danger.
"Master, don't tell me you also think that something is wrong with my senses?"
Seeing Wang Yan not saying a word, the elfin Stick also felt a little aggrieved. It did feel that this place was a little unusual.
"Is it possible that it's because you're too sensitive? I didn't feel anything wrong along the way."
This time, it wasn't because Goldie wanted to quarrel with the elfin Stick, but because it had heard the elfin Stick say that there was something wrong with this place.
Goldie also raised its vigilance. It had been observing everything in its surroundings, but it didn't discover anything wrong, nor did it sense any danger.
"Do you want to fight?" The grievance that lingered in its heart just now was immediately dispersed by Goldie's words.
Elfin Stick took out a dagger, looking like he was about to fight with Goldie to the death.
Wang Yan reached out his hand to stop it. He grabbed the elfin Stick and touched its hair that had exploded. He smiled and said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with your perception."
"There's nothing wrong with it. It's just that we haven't found it yet. It has nothing to do with your senses."
Besides that idiot, Wang Yan trusted his spirit beast very much.
He definitely wouldn't think that the elfin Stick was too sensitive. There must be something that he had overlooked.
"Wang, why don't we go down and ask the guards to see if anything else has happened here recently."
Zhang Wei also felt that his previous words were indeed not very friendly. The elfin Stick was Wang Yan's spirit beast, and it was also a king spirit beast. He suspected that there was something wrong with its perception. It really shouldn't be.
"En." Wang Yan nodded. They didn't guard this place, so naturally they didn't know much about this place. They knew that most of them were the Flame Empire warriors who guarded the slaves of Cold Country.
"Are the two of you inspecting this place?" Wang Yan and Zhang Wei were discovered by the warriors of Flame Empire the moment they appeared.
One of them, who looked like the leader, said a few words to the people around him and ran towards Wang Yan and ___.
"Come and take a look." Wang Yan nodded. "Has anything unusual happened here recently?"1
"Something unusual?" The man frowned and thought for a while. "Something did happen two days ago, but I don't know if this is considered an unusual thing."
The man was not sure what Wang Yan meant by something unusual, but a small thing had happened in the mining area two days ago. At least to the man, it was not a big deal.
"Tell me." Wang Yan instantly became alert. Perhaps the thing that the man mentioned could provide them with a new direction.
"A few days ago, a few slaves from Cold Country escaped while we were defending."
The man looked at the big pit behind him. Regarding the escape of the slaves from Cold Country, he felt that it was quite embarrassing.
Although this matter was not entirely their fault, it was because they had too few people on their side two days ago. That was why these slaves from Cold Country took advantage of the loophole.
"They escaped! And then? Did they catch them?" Wang Yan frowned and thought for a while. He did not think too much about this matter.
"They did not catch them, because they died on the way to escape."
After discovering that these Korean slaves had escaped, he personally led his men to chase after them.
However, on the way, he discovered that those people had already died. Thinking back, the man realized that he seemed to have overlooked something.
Now that he thought about it carefully, he discovered that the corpses of the slaves from Cold Country that he had previously discovered were indeed not quite right.
He remembered that when those people died, their bodies seemed to have been sucked dry by something.
The flesh and blood inside were all gone. Their eyes were empty, and even their souls were gone. Only a complete human skin was left.
He didn't feel it before, but now that he thought about it, the man suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
There was only one type of monster inside the crystal snow crack, but with the abilities of those monsters, it was impossible for them to transform the corpse into that form.
So, there were other existences in this place. The man shivered. What kind of monster could turn a person into that state?
"Did you think of something?" Wang Yan asked when he saw the man's sudden change in expression.
"Yes." The man nodded. "The way those people died was too strange. Their flesh and blood were extracted from their bodies, and in the end, only an empty piece of human skin was left."
"F * ck." Zhang Wei reached out and rubbed the goosebumps on his arm. "What kind of strange way of dying is this?"
"His soul and flesh have been extracted." Wang Yan rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
