Chapter 104 Whispering Valley
Alan stood in the night wind, watching the beast tamer girl go away.
who is she?
Questions swirled in Alan's mind.
Eventually, he came to a name that he had almost forgotten.
Sonia!
A girl from the same hometown as Allen, her mother was kidnapped, her father became an alcoholic, and she lived in poverty and abuse since childhood.
He was kidnapped by a circus two years ago and has not been heard from since.
Although there was no evidence, Allen's intuition told him that the strange animal trainer was most likely the missing Sonia.
However, if we put aside our intuition and return to rationality, we can easily find that there are two unreasonable aspects in the above speculation.
First, the trainer's age, build and appearance did not match Sonia in Alan's memory.
It's only been two years since we last met, it's impossible for him to have changed so completely.
Even a full body plastic surgery isn't this thorough!
Unless, she is also good at disguise magic, or has lived in the secret realm of time for a long time.
Secondly, even if she was Sonia, she couldn't possibly recognize the current Alan Panthers.
Otherwise, wouldn't my disguise be in vain? !
If that’s the case, why was this woman able to reveal her identity in just one sentence?
What was the purpose of the note left by the beast tamer girl?
Alan couldn't figure it out for the moment.
In order to solve the mystery, it seems that we have to go to Baiquanze.
…
Six talented children were kidnapped by the Amazing Circus.
Four of them are direct descendants of the Griffin family!
In order to rescue the kidnapped children, the Griffin family immediately organized people to hunt down the circus.
Allen, Julie and Ferrin, as witnesses, were also included in the arrest team.
The team is led by Ferrin’s dad, Ryan.
Mr. Ryan, who is slightly plump and has a friendly smile on his face, looks like a shrewd businessman. In fact, he is the contemporary patriarch of the Griffin family.
The strength of the late second stage is enough to dominate the entire island!
Deputy Captain Charlie, Feilin’s uncle, is in the early second stage of cultivation.
Three other players, Neil, Pike and Lowry, are Flynn's cousins.
The cultivation levels of the three young men are all in the late first stage.
The pursuit team has been formed.
The next day, we set off for Baiquan Island, the escape place of the Amazing Circus.
Ryan and Charlie traveled around the world when they were young.
Baiquan Island is one of the places they visited.
If you are familiar with the local conditions, you can also serve as a guide.
Alan specifically asked Feilin's father and learned that there were two very dangerous places on Baiquan Island.
One is the "Whispering Valley", which is said to be the home of goblins and ghosts.
The second is the meeting place that the trainer and Allen "agreed" to meet - Baiquanze.
The boat trip from Griffin Island takes at least two months.
However, the Griffin family has a faster means of transportation - the Griffin airship.
Four griffins, two at a time, took turns towing the small airship.
With the traction of the griffins and the auxiliary power provided by the sails, they could reach Baiquan Island within three days.
…
Baiquan Island, northern coastal area.
Whispering Valley.
There are dense forests on both sides of the valley.
There lived a moody goblin in the woods.
There are also ghosts that hate the living.
Since ancient times, the valley has been shrouded in a mysterious barrier.
Any natural sounds, such as wind and thunder, including the roar of wild beasts, will not cause any abnormalities in the valley.
However……
If someone spoke loudly in the valley.
No matter what language or accent is used.
Any words or sentences with complex grammatical logic may anger the goblins and ghosts in the valley and lead to attacks.
So, if you want to pass through this valley safely, it is best to keep quiet.
If you must speak, you can only whisper.
The place name "Whispering Valley" came from this.
…
Allen and his crew originally planned to fly over the valley on a Griffin airship.
This way of travel is the safest.
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes.
We encountered a storm during the flight and had to land to avoid the wind.
On the airship, in addition to Allen and the seven people from the Griffin family, there were four experienced crew members who were responsible for maintaining the airship and raising the griffins.
Thanks to these experienced crew members, the airship landed safely in the flat valley.
There was a dense forest not far from where the airship temporarily anchored.
Two men in green cloaks lived in the woods.
Each of them was holding a green-painted monocular telescope and spying on the people coming in and out of the cabin.
The news that the Griffin family has formed a hunting team has been discovered by the animal trainer.
As soon as the pursuit team's airship took off, Ethan received a magical message from the trainer.
Ethan felt that it was necessary to teach the Griffin family, who were overestimating their own capabilities, a lesson.
Therefore, the ventriloquist and the knife-throwing man were left here by the team leader to stop the pursuers.
Both of them are nature warlocks.
The ventriloquist has awakened the blood of the satyr.
The knife thrower has half-elf blood.
Their cultivation realm is all in the late first stage.
His rank is not high, but he is very good at woodland combat.
Especially on a special occasion like Whispering Valley.
Victory or defeat depends more on environmental factors than pure strength.
A good hunter often appears as prey.
The two had reason to believe that the carefully set traps would be enough to give the pursuers a warning!
…
The ventriloquist hid in the woods, pointed at Flynn who had disembarked from the boat for a walk, and whispered a 1st-level "Hypnotism" spell.
"Vanima!"
A barely detectable green light shone through the branches and hit Felin's back.
Feilin was chatting quietly with Alan.
Both knew the taboos of the valley.
He deliberately lowered his voice and sometimes used gestures to assist in conversation.
Feilin stopped and a look of confusion appeared on his chubby face.
"Felin, are you okay?"
Alan noticed that his expression was wrong and asked in a low voice.
"It's okay!" Feilin suddenly raised his voice, "Just a little dizzy!"
"A-choo!" He sneezed loudly, rubbing his nose and shouting, "Look at this damn weather! The wind is getting stronger and stronger. When will our airship be able to--"
You bastard, don’t take me with you if you want to die!
Alan covered Ferrin's mouth to stop him from speaking loudly.
Look around vigilantly.
Fortunately, the monsters in the forest have not been alarmed for the time being.
“Woo woo woo~~”
Even though Feilin's mouth was covered by him, he still struggled restlessly, as if he wanted to protest loudly.
At this time, Mr. Ryan also discovered that something was wrong here.
He rushed over, grabbed his son's ear and twisted it half a circle.
Feilin shuddered in pain.
Under the stimulation of pain, he suddenly came to his senses .
His face turned pale!
Finally I realized that I had just been hypnotized .
Unknowingly, I broke a taboo!
Julie, her uncle Charlie, and three cousins came over quickly.
"What's wrong with Feilin?" Julie leaned close to Alan's ear and whispered, "How dare he yell like a madman!"
"Felin, it seems that you were hypnotized just now."
Alan replied in a whisper.
"Someone is plotting against us, trying to use Feilin to attract the siege of the forest monsters!"
