Chapter 111 Crystal Orchid

"Who the hell tore down the door I just fixed?!"

From a distance, Milo could see that the new front door of the small building had broken into two pieces again, and the door lock's fixing structure had collapsed.

"You didn't fix it at all!" Rebecca kicked open the door that was leaning against the floor and stormed into the living room. "Where is he?"

The living room was empty and in a mess, even more chaotic than the scene last night.

Walker, Kay, and the others were not in the house. There were obvious bloodstains on the ground, and a cut rope was on a nearby pillar.

Clearly, the four children should have been under control, but someone sabotaged their actions.

There were strangers' footprints on the ground.

Milo noticed this immediately.

“Walker should have gone after him.” Rebecca opened a cabinet, where Walker kept his weapons, but now the cabinet was empty, and there were traces of blood on the doorknob.

"He's injured."

Milo took a deep breath, checked the magazine of the revolver at his waist, and found that it was empty, so he quickly replaced it with a new magazine.

"Let's go, this time we really have to go for a spin in the wilderness."

He glanced at Rebecca, who nodded.

……

If the current situation had happened yesterday, Milo would have been completely baffled.

But now he had a clear idea in his mind, and he knew exactly where to find Kai.

The workers in the entire town of Ekham were unaware of the curse on the descendants of the natives, but the Solomon gang did.

"Those who cause trouble are trying to lure us into the wilderness."

"But there's no other way."

Milo grabbed a strip of cloth and wrapped it around his finger, which had a chunk of flesh cut off.

"Follow."

……

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about? Going into the wilderness at this hour is not a good idea. There are things in there that you can't handle." Mogot, who was listening from the side, was completely confused.

"There's a demon in the wilderness! It's hiding in the ravine. I've been looking for it for three years and haven't found it. The two of you alone can't defeat it!"

"Then you can stay here."

Rebecca wasn't going to waste any more time here, so she immediately set off with Milo.

Mogot stood at the door with his rifle in his arms, watching the two young men in black trench coats beside him gradually disappear into the distance. Finally, he stomped his foot on the ground in frustration and followed them.

……

Heading straight south along the town's main road, you soon enter the desolate mountain area.

After waking up, Milo had a very clear memory of the recent event. He knew that it was Karl's ghostly memory that had been hidden in his mind all along. Not long ago, he had immersed himself in this memory and walked the path to the underground cave. Although several years had passed, the terrain of the barren mountain would not have changed much, and he found the direction accurately.

As night deepened, the temperature in the Ikham region began to drop sharply. The barren mountains were covered with many low bushes, which concealed many bottomless ravines. One wrong step could lead to a fall, but Milo did not slow down his pace at all.

"This way."

Once inside the jungle, his vision became even clearer.

He remembered clearly that the closer he got to the underground cave, the less dense the copper grass flowers became, because the land beneath was completely hollow and there were no copper mines. So as long as there were fewer and fewer copper grass flowers along the way, it meant that he was on the right track.

“Solomon did it, didn’t he?” Rebecca followed closely behind Milo, using her combined broken blades to cut the vines blocking her path.

“Yes, they know about the curse.” Milo kept his eyes alert ahead. “Haven’t you always wondered why Solomon didn’t attack us? This is the way they chose to do it.”

The most dangerous thing for Icom is not the Solomon gang, but the desolate mountains. They want to trap Milo and Rebecca in the mountains and kill them without leaving a trace.

Mogot stayed at the very back of the group.

He was the most cautious of the three, or more accurately, not cautious, but apprehensive. After entering the desolate mountains, he maintained a shooting posture, his index finger ready to move to the trigger of the rifle at any time.

Seeing Milo and Rebecca accelerating wildly ahead like reckless fools, Mogot's bearded old face couldn't help but twitch:
"I don't care what you two are thinking, I know the routes in these mountains better than you do, so don't wander off..."

Before he could finish speaking, a wide-open area suddenly appeared in the jungle ahead.

"It smells like blood."

Milo stopped and reached out to touch the leaves and branches of the plants on the ground. When he raised his hand again, his palm was stained with traces of blood.

“Here it is.” Rebecca picked up a bloodstained wristwatch from the ground.

That belongs to Walker.

"Is he still alive?" Rebecca swallowed and looked at Milo.

“We’re not going to survive.” Mogot, carrying his rifle, passed Milo and Rebecca and continued to scout ahead: “We’ve entered its hunting grounds. You can still turn back now.”

"I don't know what you're talking about." Rebecca didn't take Mogot's words seriously at all.

But Milo, standing to the side, roughly guessed who "it" was when Mogot spoke of. Before the raven forced Karl to perform "creation and rebirth," he had personally admitted that he had done something similar, meaning he had already sacrificed himself once. So what was the result of that sacrifice...?

Before Karl lost consciousness, he saw a white creature standing beside the girl. Three years have passed since then.

Where can we find those children?

Rebecca pressed Milo for answers.

"Didn't you see the crystal orchids up ahead?" Milo pointed to a cluster of white flowers in the mountain stream ahead.

The places where crystal orchids grow are also areas where fungi grow densely.

In the distance, amidst the dark mountain stream, there was indeed a cluster of white shadows, covering some low vegetation.

Just as Rebecca was about to jump into the ravine, Mogot grabbed her.

"Get out of the way!"

He pulled Rebecca aside, hoisted the gun, and fired a shot directly at the white figure in the ravine!
"boom!!!"

Swish! !

The white shadow in the ravine vanished the instant the shot was fired!

"That's a ridiculous crystal orchid! You're all so young and your eyesight is so bad!"

Mogot reloaded his ammunition at lightning speed and chased after them down the hillside beside the ravine.

Rebecca didn't waste any words, drew her weapon and charged forward.

"Chase my ass!!"

Milo rolled his eyes.

He tried to stop Mogot, but the old madman was like a vulture that had smelled carrion, chasing after him relentlessly.
