Allen and his little bones [Western Fantasy]

The news brought by Ives was accurate. Early in the morning of the second day, the pursuit team withdrew from Wende Town. The magic bulletin that had been posted on the bulletin board in the town was also put away, and a new one was posted announcing that the undead I have fled back to Karbi, so you don't have to worry too much about the "Letter to the Townspeople".

Rumors about Alan's upcoming marriage continued to ferment in the small town, and a group of girls who dreamed of becoming "Mrs. Wolf" were all gloomy. They wondered what kind of unique gift Alan bought, while discussing it. What kind of girl will she be who will become "Mrs. Wolf"? The business of the grocery store has been taken a step up. Every day, girls come to the door and buy a few small things casually, just to chat more with the proprietress. Try to get more information from her.

In the wooden house on the hillside, Allen knew nothing about it.

He was packing with Eli and was going to take each other to Kalby.

[Actually, I can go there by myself. ] While packing up, Eli proposed to Allen again, 【You have confirmed my ability, and I now have a certain understanding of the abyss forest. It should be no problem to go to Kalby by myself. 】

"You also said 'should'." Allen picked on Eli's words, but his tone was still indifferent. He emptied a row of bookshelves with a wave of his hand, and let the books float into the portable space that was opening .

After discovering that the "bone" was Eli, a good acquaintance in his memory, Allen could no longer look at this matter simply with the mentality of "voluntary help".

He wants to help Eli solve the mystery of the mutation.

In the initially drafted action plan, Allen listed two general directions in total——

One is to go to the Dimando Orphanage, retrieve Eli's admission file, and ask the old director for more details about Eli's life experience.

The second is to go to Karbi, try to find similar cases in Karbi, and send a visit request to the Undead Twelve Elders, so that the high-ranking undead can see what happened to Eli.

But because Yin Xiao had already been to Alberta College, it not only brought back the information that Eli was not found, but also brought back the news that the martial law had doubled over there.

It is obviously not advisable to bring Eli into Angelo's territory at this juncture, and it is probably not good to contact the old dean rashly right now.

Direction [-] was temporarily put on hold by Allen, and he turned his attention to direction [-], which is more likely to be manipulated.

Eli has been in a conflicted mood since he knew that Alan was going to take a trip to Kalby with him, as if he had taken his business as his own - because he could still have Alan at this time. Lun is a friend who is happy, but also feels guilty and worried because the other party has nothing to do with this matter and is involved because of his own involvement.

"You don't have to put too much psychological burden on yourself." Allen heard the undead behind him silent for a long time, and he comforted the other party, "It just so happens that the dark recovery agent has reached the testing stage, and I made an appointment with someone there at first, if the dark recovery agent can If you really make a finished product, as the provider of important information, the other party will get a batch of finished medicine. I will go there with you to inquire about the situation with you, so I can do this and test the properties of the medicine."

Eli moved his body. He wanted to say a few words to refute, but found that Alan's reason was reasonable, as if he couldn't refute it. He was wandering around when he saw the black-haired young man turned around and asked: " Have you packed your things over there?"

【about there. ] Eli replied subconsciously.

He didn't have many things at first, and he was mainly helping Alan organize them.

Allen nodded slightly, then his eyes drifted towards the kitchen: "Well, don't forget that."

——Which one?

Eli followed Allen's line of sight, and then realized that what he was looking at was... the apron.

"Your unique gift." Allen said, "Remember to put it away."

Eli: […]

Even though the tone and expression of the black-haired young man didn't change much, Eli was sure that Allen must want to laugh at this moment.

After being interrupted like this, he lost the mood to continue to refute. The two reached a consensus on "Together to Kalbi", and they quickly packed their things.

Before departure, Allen also received two letters.

They are brought by different bird messengers.

A letter is pure black from the envelope to the letter paper, and the wax seal on the seal is also black. At first glance, the letter paper seems to have no content, just a piece of empty paper, but after injecting dark elements into it, the golden text begins to slowly fade away. emerge.

This is a reply letter from the Undead Elders.

After deciding to take Eli to Kalbi, Allen sent a message to the elders, briefly explaining Eli's situation and their going to Kalby.

Compared with the previous letter with distinct dark features, the latter letter is much more simple.

The second letter was well sealed in a cowhide envelope that had been blessed with spells. The plain letter paper had a light and gentle background, but the content on it was written differently.

This is a letter home from the Wolfes, co-written by Ellen's parents.

According to the original plan, Allen was supposed to go home after the primary product of the dark recovery agent was produced, but because he was worried about Eli, he had to go to Kalby again, and the matter of returning home could only be postponed.

The Wolfes expressed regret that their son, who had been away for a long time, would not be able to return home for a while, but they all understood Alan's behavior and gave many practical suggestions in their letters.

What parents are older than their children is not only decades, but also immeasurable experience.

After Alan read the letter first, he realized that he had missed a key issue in the analysis process.

- Estrus/estrous period.

For Alphas and Omega, the day of awakening and differentiation is the first estrous/estrous period they have experienced in their lives, but for Betas, most Betas will not have obvious physiological needs on the day of physiological awakening—— Unless they are shrouded in a high concentration of pheromones from a powerful Alpha or Omega.

When the estrus/estrous period comes for the first time, it will promote the reorganization of some functions in the individual organism, and then cause a certain amount of changes in the appearance.

However, the changes brought about by the estrous period are not as fixed as the changes brought about by physiological awakening. There are also subjects who have experienced no internal and external changes after the first estrous period, and the changes it brings are completely random.

How this randomness is created is still an unsolved mystery.

"Eli." After reading the letter, Allen called Undead.

【What? ] Eli just turned his head toward him—the 180-degree kind.

Allen organized his vocabulary. He knew that Eli was a Beta, and tried to make his question more tactful. However, after hesitating for a while, he still chose the clearest way to ask: "Before the mutation occurred, what did you have?" Have you experienced heat/estrus?"

The hut was quiet for a moment, which was strange.

Eli doubted his ears for a moment before he was sure that Alan really said the words "estrous/estrus". No. 】

"Sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass you." Allen heard the undead's embarrassment, coughed slightly, lowered his head and crossed out the line "estrus" in his notebook, "I just suddenly thought of estrus It may also bring about a change in appearance, although the probability of it turning people into undead is very low, but just to be on the safe side, I still confirmed it."

Although he sighed in his heart for Alan's excessive pursuit of rigor, Eli still said: [It's okay. 】

He was about to ask "What about you?", but Eli felt something was wrong before he could speak, and quickly swallowed the words back.

In order to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere caused by this topic, the two quickly got busy again. Not long after, Eli put on his head-to-toe cloak again and left the cabin with Allen , to the Abyss Forest.
