Chapter 754: Chapter 544 Contradiction_3 Chapter 754: Chapter 544 Contradiction_3 It appears…like a pendant?
Duanmu Huai reached out and picked up the pendant. It was an ancient-looking tal pendant with a wolf’s head pattern engraved on it.
So…Is this a wolf?
“—————-!”
However, the mont Duanmu Huai picked up the pendant, his vision went black.
The next mont, the scenery around him suddenly changed.
In the dim room, an old man was sitting in a chair, staring ahead, as if looking at soone, revealing a strange smile.
“This is your family’s fate. If you wish to change everything, sacrifice must be made.”
“Sacrifice?”
“That’s right. You should understand what we need.”
Imdiately afterwards, the scene once again changes.
Under the chilling moonlight, in the infinite wilderness, hounds were howling everywhere. A ragged girl was running desperately ahead. From Duanmu Huai’s perspective, he seed to be higher up, as if he was riding a horse, fervently chasing after the girl.
Then, a voice echoed.
“Is it true that if we kill that woman, the curse on the Baskerville family will be lifted?”
“Yes, kill her, and the curse on the Baskerville family will be lifted. You will also restore the glory of your family!”
Another voice echoed, but it sounded more like a voice coming from all directions.
Catch her!
Kill her!
Soone started to gallop forward, whipping his horse, gradually closing the distance with the girl ahead—but soon, Duanmu Huai realized sothing seed off.
Logically, a horse should always outrun a human, let alone hounds chasing after them. Although the girl appeared to be in a pitiful state while being chased, she managed to maintain her sprinting posture for such a long ti. Upon thinking about it, there were many unclear parts in the legend.
Like how a common girl managed to escape from the wilderness, and how a group of people riding horses and releasing hounds failed to catch her. Even if the girl had left earlier, it wouldn’t have been difficult to catch up with her.
To a normal person, they would only feel sorry for the girl being chased. However, as a Judge, Duanmu Huai started to be alert—unfortunately, this was an event of the past. For now, he would never see that girl as the pitiful, innocent one. Anything abnormal usually signified sothing wrong. As a Judge, he would have acted imdiately.
And just as expected, to seemingly confirm Duanmu Huai’s suspicion, the girl being chased suddenly lurched forward, her hands on the ground. Then the next mont, she sprinted like a wild beast across the wilderness. Seeing this, “soone” seed shocked. But soon, Duanmu Huai saw a gun appear in his vision, aiming at the woman and pulling the trigger.
“Bang!!!!”
The gunshot echoed.
However, at the sa mont, the girl on her fours suddenly leaped forward and then disappeared. This sudden turn of events surprised “soone”. He held his gun, looking around, but didn’t see anything. Then suddenly, accompanied by a neigh, the horse he was riding instantly fell, throwing “soone” onto the ground.
“Huff————–!!!”
“Soone” fell heavily onto the ground. Before he could stand up, a face suddenly appeared before him. It was a distorted, ferocious face, more like a wild beast than a human.
“—————-!”
Then, the vision disappeared.
The scene in front of him returned to normal. Duanmu Huai frowned and looked at the necklace in his hand.
This was the third ti this inexplicable ability had been activated. As he had expected, it seed the ancestor of the Baskerville family had experienced sothing unusual.
Now that the Hellhound had been killed, it should be fine now, right?
Or is the trouble yet to co?
“Mr. Duanmu, are you okay?”
When Duanmu Huai ca to, he heard Mary’s voice. She was anxiously clutching Duanmu Huai’s clothes, looking at his chest.
“Hmm? Do I look like sothing’s wrong?”
“Because of your clothes…”
“Oh.”
Noticing where Mary was looking, Duanmu Huai lowered his head and found a few tears on his shirt. From Mary’s perspective, it might be a dangerous situation.
“No worries, it’s only my clothes that got ripped.”
Just kidding, with Duanmu Huai’s Physical Attributes, he could even take a bath in liquid nitrogen. It was a pipe dream for a creature from who knows where to breach his defenses.
“Phew…….”
Hearing Duanmu Huai’s words, Mary finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then she turned her head and looked at the pitch-black stain on the ground.
“Is this…the end?”
“Who knows? Let’s see how it goes.”
Duanmu Huai said, turning the pendant in his hand, he had a feeling this wouldn’t be as simple as it seed. Besides, if the scene he saw earlier was true, then it completely contradicts the legend of the Baskerville family—at least the girl who was caught certainly wasn’t innocent. The Baskerville family had caught her, not for re pleasure.
Could more clues be found from this pendant?
In any case, he decided to give it a try.
