Holy Warrior Liu Bei

Chapter 19 Little Owl Bear, Scratching

Does anyone know where that owl bear is?

After Gale finished preparing the spell, the group walked a few steps forward and arrived at a mountain stream, where Asdalon suddenly stopped and asked a question.

"Are you an idiot?"

Needless to say, this was Leizer's question.

"Actually, I was just joking with everyone." Asdallen would never admit that he really didn't know where the Owl Bear was, nor would he admit that he had just found the location of the Owl Bear's cave.

Otherwise, the atmosphere of having everything under control that we created earlier will be completely gone!

In fact, after Gale had prepared his spell, he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to know where the owl bear's lair was. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and search for the traces left by the two men before he got here.

However, once he arrived at this place, he could no longer find any trace of the two people.

As a seasoned adventurer and a professional wanderer, he certainly wouldn't overlook the dark cave ahead.

The two men disappeared on this side of the river and then reappeared on the opposite bank, which could only be the cave ahead.

"Your joke isn't funny!" Lyezel said, carrying the Everburn Greatsword. She was quite annoyed by Asdalon's unserious behavior.

If her Githyanki warriors looked like that, she would put on pointed boots made of mind flayer skin and kick their asses hard.

Seeing that no one was willing to listen to his digestion, Asderon awkwardly laughed and led everyone into the cave.

Upon entering the cave, a stench of rotting corpses immediately assaulted their senses, causing the four to frown.

Ahead of them, the two who had left earlier were trembling in the shadows.

Although they regarded the Owl Bear as the enemy of the Supreme God, they were now trembling in fear before the so-called "enemy".

Asdallen was very annoyed.

Why do we have to force him?

It would be so much better to just die like him!

Shouldn't a family always be together?

He was getting a little tired of the prank.

He walked up to the two men and angrily rebuked them: "Is this how you serve the Supreme God? Hiding here trembling in fear?"

"I......"

Brana didn't know how to explain her weak actions, but under Asderon's aggressive attitude, she steeled herself and immediately grabbed her brother and bravely charged forward.

"This is a bit..." Yingxin felt a little reluctant.

"Hmph, are you pitying them?" Leizer sneered. "If all of Lady Shar's followers were like you, there wouldn't be a war between light and darkness, and so many people wouldn't have died in it! Put away your overflowing sympathy; don't forget, they are our enemies!"

Yingxin hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.

The group standing on the high ground watched as the Supreme God siblings below bravely charged forward, only to be killed by the Owl Bear.

"If that paladin were here, would he have made a different choice?" Shadowheart murmured to herself. Although they had only met once, she had seen everything Liu Bei had done for the Tifelins in the woods.

She doesn't discriminate against Tifflin, but she does approve of the Druids' practices.

Not everyone has enough courage to lend a helping hand to others in times of crisis.

The matter of the woodlands was originally unrelated to the two paladins, but they still took the initiative to step forward and try to mediate the conflict between the druids and the tiflin.

Perhaps, as Leizer said, her compassion was a bit excessive, even towards her enemies!

"My brothers and sisters, perhaps we should have abandoned our previous operation."

The two men were already dead, and Asdalon had seen the entire cave. Through their "sacrifice," he also guessed the reason why the Owl Bear attacked the followers of the Supreme God.

Perhaps it wasn't the owls and bears who attacked the followers of the Supreme God; on the contrary, the owls and bears were attacked!

He simply saw a baby owl hiding behind the adult owl bear, crying for food.

Thanks to his enhanced darkvision, he also saw the owl-bear egg deep inside the cave that had not yet hatched.

"Stop being so noisy! Why do you have so much to say?" Leizer said bluntly. "Just give me the conclusion, and I'll do it! All this fussing doesn't act like a soldier at all!"

Asdallen was not a warrior, he was a wanderer!

"Perhaps we can send the woodland druids over; they are experts at dealing with these beasts."

Gail pointed to the owl-bear in the distance and the surrounding environment, saying, "There are owl-bear eggs over there, but we only have one adult owl-bear in front of us, which means there's another owl-bear out hunting. There aren't many carcasses inside the cave; most of them died recently."

"So the real reason they kill is probably to protect their own children."

"An adult owl-bear is still around this druid camp. The druids are probably already aware of its existence."

Following Gale's lead, Leizer asked, "Can this thing be tamed?"

"Perhaps the druids could, but what about the few of us?" Gale's meaning was clear: there were no druids in the group.

"Since everyone's opinions are similar, let's retreat first. After we get back tonight, let the woodland druids come over. It would be best if they could take some of them to become the fighting force to guard the woodland."

After saying this, the four of them quietly left the cave from the direction they had come from, climbed up the slope along the rock wall, and arrived at a jungle.

A wailing sound came from deep within the forest, along with a faint smell of blood.

In this wilderness, nothing is surprising. The four exchanged opinions and decided to head towards the source of the "wailing" sound.

Because they did not know where the ruins of the temple in Serenne were, they could not let go of any possible clues.

After walking a short distance, they saw a white dog circling around a corpse, and the whimpering sound came from the white dog.

Asdallen stepped forward slowly, trying his best to appear non-hostile.

The white dog barked, seemingly warning them not to come any closer.

"Can I check on your master's condition? Scratch him!"

Asdallen noticed the collar around the white dog's neck, which read "Scratching," presumably the dog's name.

When Asdalon called its name, Nao Nao immediately relaxed its guard.

Asdell stepped forward and examined the man lying in the pool of blood. He was no longer breathing. "Scratching, your master is asleep and will never wake up again."

All that answered him was a sad whimper. Asderon felt a pang of pity and said, "You can remember my scent. You can come to my camp."

After saying that, Asderon turned to Shadowheart behind him and asked, "Shadowheart, do you have any spells in your repertoire that allow you to communicate with the dead? He hasn't been dead for very long, and his body is still relatively well-preserved. Perhaps we can get some information from the dead."

Shadowheart neither admitted nor denied that he had prepared a scroll for communicating with the dead. However, he had found a "Lost Voice Amulet" in the grave where he had awakened the gravedigger, which contained the spell "Communicating with the Dead".

She picked up the amulet, and a magical light shone from her hand. The corpse, guided by the light, floated up, emitting the same glow.
