Chapter 68: The Legend of the Gods!
Inside a cave outside the town of Uao-Uo.
The only ten members of the White Dragon Scale team knelt in a row in an extremely neat manner, and behind them was an incomparably huge magical beast that looked like an ape.
"Uh, that ......"
The bearded man swallowed: "Do you really understand what we just said?" β
"What's not to understand?"
Wood looked at the treasure chest and looked at the various possessions around him and nodded with satisfaction: "There is an endemic disease in your hometown, which will make the bodies of the people who live there gradually become like stones, and finally turn completely into stones. β
"Uh-huh, that's right, it's the paw prints of the black snake that spread the virus." The bearded man and the others nodded at the same time.
"And for this endemic disease, there is no other way than to clean up the contaminated land. A large amount of colorless magic ore is needed for this, so funds are needed. But because he was betrayed by a person, the money was taken away by him. β
"Uh-huh, that's it."
Wood looked at the White Dragon Scale people with an idiotic gaze: "Am I your relative?" β
"It's not."
"Do I know you?"
ββ¦β¦ Uh, don't know. β
"Am I a fellow countryman with you?"
"Not ......"
"Hmm!"
Wood tilted his head and squinted at a few people: "Since it's not related to you, why should I hand over the funds I found to a group of strangers like you." β
"......" the white dragon scales everyone.
The bearded man looked anxious: "But these ...... wealth"
"You don't mean to say that the property is yours, are yours?" Wood rolled his eyes: "It's almost fifty people, and you're still so naΓ―ve, let's put aside that you are not my opponent, even if it's a robbery, it's no problem." To know ......"
"I broke the 'Meteor' gate that made you helpless, and I killed the demonic beasts that could easily destroy you, so everything here belongs to me in a reasonable way, not you who drugged my food before!"
ββ¦β¦β
That's right.
Can......
"You don't have any humanity!" Liliana's voice came, and she said very indignantly: "These are the bearded grandfather's life-saving money, as long as they have this money, their hometown will be saved." β
"What does it matter to me how many people died in their hometown? And ......"
Wood glanced at Liliana, who was trapped behind the White Dragon Scale Mercenary Regiment: "Don't forget that you are also a prisoner, and I didn't know who it was before...... With a firm face, I said to the grandfathers in your mouth: It is absolutely impossible for me to sing for the unsealing of the seal! β
"Uh, this ......"
Liliana said, "Didn't I know before? If I had known that they were here to save my hometown, it would have been okay for me to sing until my throat was hoarse. β
"It's an afterthought."
"......" Liliana.
Although she didn't know the meaning of the word, she understood the general meaning very neatly.
The White Dragon Scales all frowned, thinking about how to convince Wood to hand over the funds they were going to get anyway.
But what should be said and what should not be said has been said, and this super ruthless imp in front of him has the opposite of his age...... There was absolutely no intention of returning the funds to them.
As for the robbery......
The terrifying demonic beasts lying there were all cut in two in an instant, and the ten of them together might not be enough to stuff the teeth of the dead demonic beast, let alone fight with the person who killed the demonic beast.
Just when a few people began to despair, the corner of the little ghost's mouth before meeting made people look extremely unhappy.
Wood patted the treasure chest on the side: "It's not impossible to give these to you, it's just ......"
"Just what?"
The bearded leader's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Little friend...... Ahem, my lord, as long as you hand over these funds to us, my old life will be at your disposal! β
"Your lives aren't worth that much."
With a look of disdain, Wood beckoned to the bearded man and motioned for him to step forward.
The bearded man didn't hesitate, he got up and walked directly to Wood, listening with a nervous face.
"It's easy to want this money, you just need to ......"
The bearded man was a little nervous at first, but when he heard the end, his face couldn't help but become weird, and when Wood finished speaking, he asked, "It's that simple?" β
"It's that simple!"
"No problem."
The bearded man nodded excitedly, originally he thought that the other party would make an extremely difficult request, but he didn't expect it......
actually let him hide the source of funds and publicize to the outside world that the reason why endemic diseases will be cured is entirely because of the blessing of the god of sleep, and he is a little ghost in front of them in their hometown...... No, it was the god of sleep who built a temple.
As long as you can get this money, don't say that you believe in this as a god, even if you worship him as an ancestor, it's no problem!
"Then let's sign the contract."
β¦β¦
Half an hour later.
Under the moonlight, Wood and Liliana walked on the way back to the town of Uau-Uo.
Looking at Wood, who walked ahead without saying a word, Liliana swallowed.
This guy who is not very old, but his strength is terrifying...... It's not going to kill yourself, is it?
It's no wonder she thinks so, you must know that the first time we met, this bastard almost strangled herself, and the words she said just now won't anger this guy, right?
Thinking of this, Liliana swallowed her saliva and said tremblingly, "Lord Wood, please forgive me for my previous offense. β
"Now you know you're scared?" Wood glanced back at Liliana, "Don't worry, I'm not as murderous as you think, and people who know me generally say I'm a gentle person." β
Is it really okay to be so deceitful?
Liliana laughed dryly, "Ah, I have a sudden inspiration for your magnanimity and gentleness and kindness, Lord Wood, please listen to it......"
"Shut up."
"Yes!"
Wood paused, a flash of hesitation on his face.
Liliana, who was following her, was startled by Wood's sudden stop, thinking that her answer was not loud enough, and hurriedly shouted by her throat, "Yes, I heard you." β
Wood frowned, "I asked you earlier." β
"Huh?"
"Are you interested in the story of how a god became a god?"
Liliana was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she asked curiously, "Is there really a god in this world?" β
"Of course!"
Wood smiled slightly, and suddenly turned to face Liliana, a wave of extreme darkness that engulfed the night.
The sudden change startled Liliana and instinctively retreated, but her body did not listen, as if her soul and body were blocked by some unknown energy.
Vaguely!
A pair of starry eyes replaced the whole world, and memories flashed through my mind like a slideshow.
Cursed Son, Osaka Castle, Legacy of the Sleeping God...... In the end, it ended with a million faiths to achieve the godhood!
Liliana couldn't help but be immersed in this small part of the memory, and it didn't take long for her to gradually open her eyes, and the person in front of her was gone.
God......
What about the gods?
A big smile broke out on Liliana's face.
"Ah, I'm really inspired this time!"
