728 Land of Dead Silence
The dirt roads were no longer suitable for walking, the horse-drawn carriages were much slower, and the shadows of the farm's construction area gradually appeared in front of everyone.
Before that, they first saw a child crouched on the side of the road, not knowing what he was doing.
When children are young, it is often difficult to directly distinguish gender, especially boys who also have short hair with excessive ears, and it is naturally difficult to identify just by looking at the back.
But this kid has a pretty good heart, and he faces the team of more than twenty people very calmly, as if he didn't see Donnie and them at all, and grabs the ground with hands full of mud.
Although this kid felt a little wrong, he was the first person Downey and the others had seen in this time, or humanoid creatures, and they had to learn about the situation ahead from him.
Of course, the extraordinary ones will not go over to ask, this child does not look dangerous, and there is nothing abnormal in his perception, but what if? And the more times like this, the more the group of 'cannon fodder' found by the housekeeper will appear.
Although the person who was ordered was a little reluctant, for the sake of the face of the gold coins and the majesty of the extraordinary ones, he had to stubbornly walk towards the child who was still playing with the mud with his head down.
"Child, you ......"
The man should have asked if this was their destination, and if Lawne's youngest son and his crush had come here, but before he could finish speaking, the whole person jumped into the sight of Donnie and the others.
After a strange scream, the man fell to the ground, only in the process, the child who was squatting on the ground had disappeared.
If he was just frightened by something, it would be fine, but this man was more than frightened, his hand was on the hilt of the gun, and he pulled out a scimitar as he turned to draw his gun and shoot at Donnie.
This person is obviously wrong, but except for his hideous face and lack of that submissive appearance, he looks no different from before.
At the same time as the gunshots rang out, the first person sent out to explore the path turned into a cloud of blood. The man who fell into madness lost his life, and before he died, the gun in his hand could not be fired.
The Extraordinary Ones moved much faster than him, and although it was not clear why, this person had already made an attack gesture, so it was natural for the Extraordinary Ones to attack him.
"Keep going!" The mechanical man on his horse withdrew his palm, and when he began to attack, his entire palm turned into countless barrels.
Seeing the strength of the robot, ordinary people naturally didn't dare to say anything, so they gathered around the carriage and slowly walked towards the farm.
Donnie secretly sensed that the child who was squatting on the ground just now should be just an illusion, not a real existence.
The mechists sent by the Baron all jumped off their horses, and this time they were at the forefront.
As mechists, they are more able to withstand the psychic effects of the Grey Mist Monsters, and the previous situation was also regarded by them as a strange attack by the Grey Mist.
But in fact, in addition to the weirdness of the spirit world, other transcendents can also do similar things, and some demons are also in this ranks.
On the surface, there was no one on the farm, but everything was in order, and it looked as if the owner had just left home. What you see on the surface is inaccurate, but in Donnie's eyes, there is a huge difference between what you see and how orderly you are at the moment.
The land on the farm glowed with a dull blood-colored glow, and the texture of the land seemed to have changed, no longer dirt, but more like meat with a special touch.
The plants that can be seen everywhere are more like tentacles emerging from the fleshy ground, and these tentacles even shake as Donnie and the others walk by, as if welcoming Donnie and the others.
Donnie just glanced at it and withdrew from the perspective just now, not because he couldn't accept it, but because there was no need to look any further.
There are no living humans on this farm, and even if they do, they are not really humans.
"Look around, a few people together, you guys will follow Loz, go and go back quickly, and after the search, go back to the town for the night." The Cyborg himself didn't leave the carriage, but he managed to stay by his side to protect his target.
"Wait!" Just as everyone was about to leave, the people in the carriage finally spoke loudly.
"If you can't find anyone, burn it down when you come back!"
It was a very crisp female voice, but the words were very cold, and when he heard her words, Donnie suddenly remembered that he had checked the information of these extraordinaries and the gunslingers, but he had not checked the information of the baron's only daughter.
Under normal circumstances, there should be no problems, but there is no shortage of anomalies in this world.
However, Donnie's psychic powers did not rush into the ordinary-looking carriage, but were blocked by the noble insignia on the carriage.
Donnie's strength wasn't that weak, but before he could make the next move, the entire brass crest cracked and made a crisp sound.
So in the midst of the cries of enemy attack, Donnie had to stop for a while.
After Donnie's somewhat reckless actions just now, the previous plan of the mechanics naturally changed, but because Donnie did not make further moves, he was regarded by these people as a fear of their strength, so the plan to explore separately did not change, but a total of four extraordinary people were left to guard the people in the carriage, and the four extraordinary ones led Donnie and them to search this remote place.
Donnie didn't have a problem with the plans of these people, the carriage and the four Extraordinary had retreated far outside the farm, these people could be called stable, but they were still not stable enough.
The Extraordinary of Donnie's three-person team is also a mechanic, and his metal transformation is not as good as that of the leader, except that his limbs are mechanized and his torso is mechanized.
Despite this, his mood remained very indifferent, and his only mechanical eye kept moving, checking the dead farm.
The scale of this farm is very large, according to the records of the town, Lawn's father is the owner of the farm, and there are several workers under him, but the condition of the farm is very bad, and the record of losing money every year can be said to be completely different from the current situation.
After Downey and another detective walked around the barn, they didn't find anything surprisingly, but this was only the surface of the situation, Downey actually found a secret passage under the barn, and it didn't look like it had just been dug up for a long time.
