Chapter 158 Is it sweet?
"Lilith!"
There was chaos on Lucas' side, and before anyone could respond, Lilith shot out like an arrow. Everyone was a little panicked for a moment, not knowing what to do.
The figure seemed not to have expected that he would be discovered, nor did he expect that Lilith would rush towards him without hesitation. When Lilith nimbly jumped over a tree stump, the shadow finally reacted and turned around and ran away!
The black shadow was very familiar with this place, and used the complex terrain of the forest to constantly change routes, trying to get rid of Lilith. However, Lilith herself grew up running wildly in the forest of Shelley Town, and had no fear of the unfamiliar dark forest. She had long legs and the distance between them was getting closer and closer.
The black shadows also realized it and their steps became a little panicked. The tree branches that they could avoid before by turning sideways or bending over now kept scratching them. The snow on the branches was knocked off from time to time and sprinkled on their faces, bringing a chill.
The wind roared in Lilith's ears, as if cheering for the chase.
Closer, closer!
The black shadow was like a frightened deer. Lilith could almost hear her rapid breathing. Her steps began to stagger, her hood was blown off by a branch, and her long hair fell down. She ran with her master in the strong wind.
The advantage of running every day was revealed. After passing another fallen tree, Lilith gritted her teeth and leaped forward, pouncing on her prey like a leopard. The two of them fell to the ground on the snow at the same time. It was a gentle slope, and they rolled several times in the snow before stopping. Their bodies and heads were covered with snow, and they looked very embarrassed.
Lilith panted and used the magic of illumination to light up the dense forest. She looked at the person under her. It turned out to be a girl who looked very young, no more than ten years old. She was very thin, and her dry hair had no luster under the light. At this moment, she was looking at Lilith with hatred on her face.
Her arms were as thin as a kitten's. Lilith loosened her grip, fearing that she would break her arms. "You——"
Before she could finish her words, she saw the girl's pupils shrink drastically. Lilith's brain buzzed and her movements slowed down. Seeing this, the girl hurriedly began to pry Lilith's pincer-like hands apart, trying to climb out from under her.
"What did you do, little sister?" However, Lilith was stunned for only ten seconds before she returned to normal and clamped her down again.
The girl was shocked, but still didn't speak and kept struggling.
"You didn't cast any spell on me... You are a little weak..." Lilith said speechlessly. Just when she looked at the girl, she seemed to suddenly lose control of her body, as if she was sleep paralyzed. Before she could be shocked, she returned to normal.
But when the dark and thin girl heard this, she looked at her with even more resentment. She turned her head to look at Lilith's arm, which was as strong as a clamp, and opened her mouth to bite it.
"Hey, hey! You little brat!" Lilith was startled, but withdrew her arm very quickly. The girl was even more agile and turned around to bite her other hand, but Lilith quickly pinched her chin and stuffed a small piece of cool thing into it. The girl was about to spit it out, but Lilith pinched her lips tightly.
"Is it sweet?" Lilith looked at her with a smile. She didn't believe that she couldn't coax a child.
The girl wanted to sneer, but her mouth was pinched by Lilith, like a little duck. The hard candy slid in her mouth, and coupled with her sneer, it looked very funny.
But when the sugar was slowly melted by the temperature of her mouth, the sweet smell instantly spread in her mouth, stimulating her taste buds. Lilith saw the girl's eyes suddenly widen and her struggle stopped. Lilith smiled, finally let go of her hand and stood up.
"Lilith!"
Catherine and her companions finally found Lilith's location with the help of the bright green light. They rushed over, only to see the blonde girl slumped on the ground to rest. Opposite her, a little girl was also sitting on the snow, looking dazed, her cheeks twitching and her expression blurred.
The candy continued to melt, and the sweet taste stimulated the girl's saliva to continue to secrete. She couldn't help but keep sucking, feeling the happiness brought by this wonderful taste, and she was no longer sensitive to the outside world.
Catherine walked over quickly, squatted in front of the little girl, and said softly, "Hello."
However, the girl did not speak, but just smiled at her with a dreamy look in her eyes. When she smiled, Catherine smelled a familiar smell. She was stunned and turned to look at Lilith, "What did you feed her?"
"It's just sugar..." Lilith said, and seeing Catherine's eyes, she felt guilty for a moment, turned her head and added in a low voice, "Sugar made from belladonna."
As expected... Catherine covered her face with her hands, feeling a little headache.
"I was planning to make it for you, but I forgot to give it to you." Lilith smiled flatteringly and did not forget to take credit for herself, but it was obvious that this belladonna candy was too stimulating for a little witch who had never come into contact with belladonna.
"...Thank you." Catherine always stayed away from things that would make her lose her mind. She looked at the thin girl who was eating candy quietly, feeling mixed emotions in her heart. No matter what, she finally found her own kind.
"She's a little weak..." Lilith got up from the ground, brushed off the snow on her body, and walked to Catherine and said, "She seems to be able to control her mind, but it's not long-lasting. She probably hasn't learned any spells."
"Maybe because the target is a human, it wouldn't be weak if it were an animal." Lucas bared his teeth. There were several cuts on his face pecked by the huge crow, and there were still marks of pink new flesh on his face that had just been healed by primary healing magic.
"Those mice and crows were driven by her?" Lilith guessed, "Then she just wanted to scare us. She's a good kid."
"Hey, you guys are judging too easily." Bobby couldn't help but say, "Don't you think about where the corpse she disguised as a zombie came from?"
Catherine was startled when she heard this and looked at the girl.
The candy was not big. She finally finished it. The dazed smile on her face gradually faded away. It seemed like only a moment. She paused, then stood up suddenly. When she looked over again, her eyes had regained clarity.
However, her eyes were filled with cold vigilance.
