[R18] Meat is fragrant – Chapter 139 of “Charming Flesh and Fragrance” [English]

The Vampire Queen Who Fell in Love with the Priest Part 15

“Lady Claudia!”

“Lady Claudia!”

Strong young men held torches in their hands and shouted loudly as they lay prostrate in the dark and cold forest.Gu Mingyue and Ilaria, who was wearing a thick dark cloak, walked among the crowd, protected by Emer in front of them and Ruowang behind them.

Father Chabdorian followed John, walking with difficulty.The rotting leaves under everyone’s feet were as thick as a palm, soaked up by the cold night dew. The deeper they went, the more clogged they became, and even their ankles could sink in completely.When you lift your foot, the sticky feeling on the shoe lingers all the way, not to mention the insects and ants that live on the surface, most of which escape silently among the dead branches and leaves, so densely packed that it makes people’s scalp numb.

“There’s something wrong with this damn place.”

Another vague muttering floated into her ears, and Gu Mingyue didn’t know how many times she heard the same words.

“It’s too quiet here.” Ilaria wrapped her cloak a little tighter around her body, leaned closer to John without leaving a trace, and whispered with her neck curled up.

In addition to the shouts of men shouting at the top of their lungs, the rustling of walking, and the subtle crackling of torches, all the sounds that could be heard came from the noises made by the group of people, and there were no sounds of birds and animals that should have been ordinary.

“Stay alert.” As soon as Emerl finished speaking, there was a commotion in front of the team.

“Look, what’s that in front of you?!” someone exclaimed in fear.

“Ahhhhhhhh!”

“Oh God! She, she…?!”

There were several more loud screams that seemed to pierce the night sky, and there was even a faint trembling sound.Unless you hear it with your own ears, it would be difficult to connect these sharp cries with the tall and muscular men around them.

Before Gu Mingyue let out the third scream, she quickly moved to the front of the team. When she saw the scene in front of her clearly, her whole body was horrified, and she pursed her lips with a stern expression without saying a word.

“What happened?” John, Father Chabdorian and others also rushed to Gu Mingyue’s side from the middle of the team. When they looked along her solemn gaze, they all fell silent as if they suddenly lost their voices.

A few dozen steps away from everyone, there was an extremely horrifying scene.

A naked girl’s body, with skin so pale that it turned blue, appeared in front of the group of people through clusters of blazing firelight.These seemingly lifeless girls rested their foreheads against the tree trunks, placed their arms hanging naturally by their sides, and their protruding breasts pressed against the rough bark, floating upside down half a meter above the ground.

“She, they are the girls who disappeared before.”

Such a bizarre scene made even Gu Mingyue’s hair stand on end and her heart was filled with fear.She was not the real Lilith. It was obviously her first time to experience such a horrific scene, but she had to stand at the front of the crowd without changing her expression and take the lead in taking steps in the direction of the girls.

In an instant, one of the girls’ arms suddenly fell from the air, and suddenly stopped at a right angle between the fingertips and the back. The movements were uniform, pointing in the same direction from all angles that were impossible even with human joints.

“They are pointing the way.” Ilaria crossed her arms and trembled, “Mrs. Claudia is in the direction they are pointing.”

After a brief silence caused by excessive shock, the commotion gradually spread among the crowd, and the noise was like the endless chirping of flies.

Gu Mingyue understands people’s fears, and she feels the same, but they must not stand still here.She snatched the torch from Emer’s hand and raised it to the side of her head. She said calmly under the firelight: “Come on, brave boys and warriors! Don’t be afraid of the unknown evil. Take your cross with you and don’t let it leave. God will be with us! Remember, no matter what lies ahead, I, the Duchess of Kernwell, will face it with you!”

The duchess’s voice was sonorous and powerful, like a bell ringing above the head, which made people’s spirits uplifted.The perseverance and determination between her brows are clearly visible, and her flawless face is coated with a shallow glow by the warm orange light, making people involuntarily feel awe.

“God is with us!” Emer stood beside Gu Mingyue and took the lead in echoing.He’s tall and straight body is like a hill, looking both majestic and steady.

“God is with us!” Father Chabdorian eagerly took out a half-height large cross from his baggage, waved it in front of him and shouted loudly.Claudia’s current situation is dangerous, but he doesn’t want to see anyone give up here.

Who among ordinary people would not be afraid, Father Chabdorian thought.The more frightened and uneasy he felt in his heart, the more worried and anxious he became about Claudia’s safety, and he wished he could immediately follow the direction pointed by the girls.

John glanced at the frighteningly pale Father Chabdorian, a sarcastic smile flashed across his lips, then he looked away, and an almost inaudible snort escaped from his nose.

“Can’t delay any longer.” He’s tone was as calm as if he was talking about the weather. He held the torch and walked slowly across Gu Mingyue, and walked into the area where the girls were suspended without looking back. His calm look dissipated the fear in many people’s hearts.

“God is with us!”

There were many people behind who were echoing high and low. Everyone cheered up and cautiously followed the steps of their young master.

Gu Mingyue looked at Ruowang’s back, feeling warm in her heart, but at the same time she felt her chest was heavy and sore.Ruo Wang is too loyal and always has unconditional trust and obedience to Lilith… Even though he knows that he may be deeply bound by blood, such wholehearted feelings are still so heavy that she can’t breathe, and she feels guilty.

She suppressed the untimely soreness in her heart, lowered her eyes and sighed, and moved forward with everyone.

Clusters of firelight swayed faintly in the rich night, connecting like fireflies.Everyone carefully avoided the girls’ arms and walked through the bone-chilling environment.The light made people’s vision clear, but it did not bring anyone the slightest sense of security. Instead, they could not help but take in the gloomy and terrifying surroundings.

Thump, thump, thump… The heartbeat in the chest was like thunder, and no one could tell whether it came from themselves or the companions around them.

Seeing that everyone was about to pass through this area, a strange strong wind suddenly rose, instantly lifting layers of rotten leaves on the ground.Rotten leaves with a disgusting smell danced in the air like locusts all over the sky, making people unable to open their eyes.The dancing flames on everyone’s torches struggled and swayed twice in the wind and chaotic leaves, and then burned to the ground.The darkness that was so thick that it couldn’t be dissolved was like a giant beast, opening its big mouth in an instant and swallowing them all.

Thick fog swept in from all directions at the same time, and before everyone had time to adapt to the darkness, they were again in the mist.

“Hold your breath and close your eyes!” Gu Mingyue only took a breath and said to herself that something was wrong, and quickly shouted a warning. Unfortunately, she was still a step too slow, and painful moans came from her ears.

The climate here has been cold for a long time, and the night temperature is often close to freezing point. It is absolutely impossible for such a strong miasma to accumulate.

Although this poisonous fog came with force, it went away quickly, disappearing without a trace in a short time.As the miasma dissipated, Gu Mingyue’s night vision returned. When she saw the scene in front of her clearly, her heart suddenly agitated – in the darkness where she could barely see her fingers, only Father Chabdorian stood alone beside her, blinking hard to adapt to the drowsiness.And the other people seemed to be atomized, and together with the girls in the forest, they disappeared without a sound.

Father Chabdourion seemed completely unaffected by the miasma. He looked a little nervous because he could not see clearly in the dark.

The surroundings were unusually quiet, and he quickly noticed something strange, and couldn’t help but start calling Gu Mingyue’s name.

“Lilith, Lilith.” He’s voice was a little urgent, and he stretched out his hand to look around.

“I’m here, Father.” Gu Mingyue held the hand that He extended forward, then held it and said softly.

Her fingertips were cold, and Father Chabdorian unconsciously rubbed his hand twice on the smooth skin that looked like ice. Then he wrapped her hand in his palm and asked, “Why can’t I hear other people’s voices?”

“They are all gone, only the two of us are left.” Gu Mingyue answered extremely calmly.”Father, please follow me. Maybe we can find Mrs. Claudia soon.”

Father Chabdorian held her hand tightly and did not say anything when he heard the words.

Why are there only two of you left?Where did the other people go with the strange fog?Father Chabdorian felt a suffocating feeling as if he was being controlled all the time.He’s palms were sweating, his breathing was getting heavier, and his brain was working rapidly.Along the way, everything they encountered seemed to have been carefully planned and arranged.Is it possible that such elaborate planning and creating a horrifying scene is just to prevent them from searching?

No, that’s not right, maybe from the beginning…

Father Chabdo Lyon’s hands trembled uncontrollably. He did not dare to think deeply, so he asked Gu Mingyue in a low voice: “No matter what, let’s leave here quickly.”

“We shouldn’t stay here for too long.” Gu Mingyue said as she pulled the man forward. “I still remember the direction. Let’s go. We can find Mrs. Claudia as soon as possible so that you can feel at ease.”

Her tone was ordinary, but hearing it in Father Chabdorian’s ears made him feel great shame and embarrassment.He was led by her silently and moved in the darkness. When he was finally able to vaguely see the surrounding scene, he stared at Gu Mingyue’s back and said in a difficult voice: “It’s over between me and her a long time ago… I made it clear to her last time. But Lilith, even if she is no longer my beloved girl, I still can’t see anything happening to her.”

It was rare for he to reveal his true feelings, and he was really a little embarrassed. His face was very hot, and after he finished speaking, he pursed his lips and became annoyed. In the current situation, he and she explained what these inappropriate things were.

The woman in front of him suddenly stopped, and Father Chabdorian’s heart jumped suddenly. He didn’t know if she was going to reply to what he just said, and he was filled with anticipation and fear.

“I think we have found Mrs. Claudia.” Gu Mingyue said with certainty, without any emotion in her voice.

What she said was not at all what Father Chabdorian had expected, but it made him instantly forget the embarrassment he had felt at the previous moment, and he was so excited that his voice rose several degrees: “Where?! Where is she?!”

“It’s right in front. You can’t see clearly now. If we go a little further, you might be able to see it.” Gu Mingyue took her hand out of He’s palm without leaving a trace, pinched He’s sleeve and said quietly.

“That’s great! That’s great! Oh, God bless us, we finally found her!” Father Chabdorian’s joy was beyond words. When Gu Mingyue led him to a position where he could see Claudia clearly, he rushed over.

He was extremely worried about Claudia’s condition, and in his desperation, he couldn’t care about anything else. He just wanted to personally confirm whether she was okay.

“Wait! Don’t go there yet!” Gu Mingyue tried to grab the hem of he’s clothes, but her hand was empty.

As if he didn’t hear her call, Father Chabdorian went straight to Claudia without looking back, and was close to her in the blink of an eye.

“Claudia? Claudia!”

He urgently called to the woman who was curled up motionless on the ground, and stretched out his hand to help her up.The moment the man’s hand touched Claudia’s shoulder, a dazzling red light burst out from her body and spread to the surroundings like burning.

“What is this?” Father Chabdorian’s eyes widened in shock at the red totem floating in front of him. He and Claudia were in the center of this mysterious pattern.

“This is…” Gu Mingyue sneered and stepped into the red light. The totem suddenly glowed brightly, and the flame-like color suddenly transformed into a thick black-red.

“The formation that opens the gate to hell is painted with the blood of a girl.”

“Hell Summoning Array!”

She’s voice overlapped with another voice. Gu Mingyue turned her head in the formation and looked towards the place where the sound came from. Ilaria stood there with an indistinguishable expression.

“There is no way out.” Gu Mingyue smiled slightly and walked towards Father Chabdo Lyon.
