"Thank you......" the man, Martin, couldn't stop thanking. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 In his opinion, although the person who rescued him was stranger, he was more kind than the villagers who had known each other for half his life.

"This is not the place to talk, you come with me." Martin was wary as soon as he got out of trouble, and he had had enough of it these days.

With the help of various covers, the two carefully walked through and came to an inconspicuous room.

After entering, dust rushed in the face, four or five broken dining tables, and an abandoned ondol, which looked like no one had visited this place for a long time.

"It's safer here for now. This is Wood's bakery, and this poor fellow and I have discovered the horrors of this village. Unfortunately, he was not as fortunate as I was, and did not survive the harsh punishment. Martin explained, "Thank you, my savior, what do you want to know?" I hope you can complete your inquiry soon, I'm going to escape from this horrible place! ”

"Don't worry, ......it won't be delayed for too long" It was Buck who saved Martin, and the entry point for him to solve his doubts was the person in front of him.

"I want to know about the great sage in your village."

Martin chiseled open a locked cabinet, took out some well-stocked dry food, and gulped it down. The torture drained his physical strength, and he needed to consume as many calories as possible to sustain the rest of his escape, so he was racing against time.

"You mean Koro? He's not a sage at all, this guy is a complete liar! "I'm sorry, I'm telling you the truth, he used to be a well-known scoundrel in this village, and then he offended a noble lord and had to run away. Didn't come back until a short time ago......"

"But when he came back, he was like a different person, whether it was temperament or words and deeds, the most terrible thing was everything he said, there were always people who believed him......" Martin seemed to be deeply shocked, "even my dear Lizna was bewitched by this guy and was willing to be toyed with by him......"

Buck listened very attentively to Martin's words, and couldn't help but wonder, "As long as it's what he says, does anyone trust him unconditionally?" "It's a lot like an enhanced version of spells such as Powerful Charm and Strong Friendliness, and if you are not a professional with extremely strong mental power, it will be difficult to achieve this effect. After all, it was not one person who was bewitched, but everyone in this village and the surrounding villages.

"Not really." Martin recalls these experiences, "He also showed some amazing miracles. Things like restoring a person who has been disabled for many years to normal, and giving an ordinary person the power of a giant...... This earned him a lot of popularity in a short period of time, but there were still some people who questioned him. ”

Buck didn't speak, just stared at Martin, listening to his further description, and he had a hunch that something crucial was coming.

Martin swallowed, a flash of fear in his eyes, "But after the 'Midnight Prayer' incident, everything changed ......"

"Midnight prayer?"

"That's right. I heard that Corot asked everyone to be present in the name of propaganda ideas, and it happened that I was out that day and was not in the village, and when I returned, I found that Corot had become a great sage "loved" by everyone...... I don't know what's going on inside. Because I was controlled as soon as I came back, and I tried to escape in the middle but was found and failed. ”

"My lord, this ...... It's so weird that I'd suggest you leave early. Martin gave him a rough idea of what had happened, and took the opportunity to add some food.

"That's not what you have to care about. Okay, you can leave......" Buck waved his hand, the news from Martin's mouth was useful, and he was now sure that it was deliberately planned. And the sage who was the target of this mission is probably just a pawn. The hidden manipulative hand behind it is the root cause of the trouble.

Seeing that the counsel was useless, Martin did not say much and left at once. If you don't hurry, once you are found to have escaped, it will be very difficult to leave. The people of these villages are not mentally right, and their abilities have also improved. He saw with his own eyes that the blacksmith at the head of the village could use an iron hammer to shatter a set of refined full-body armor, a power comparable to that of the officers.

Not long after Martin left in a hurry, Buck also left the bakery.

As soon as I walked to the door of the bakery, I found that there was an inexplicable commotion in the village. All the villagers rushed to the place with iron forks and rakes. Each village will require a militia to defend against foreign bandits. Although these teams have limited combat effectiveness, they are extremely mobile, especially in villages.

Buck stayed behind the group, keeping up with him.

At the entrance of the village, a headless corpse, stained with blood, was lying reclining on the edge of a well. There were militiamen all around, and one of them had a single knife covered in blood, which seemed to be the hand of this man.

This costume ...... It was familiar, and Buck noticed that the deceased's clothes were a little familiar, almost immediately associated. Isn't this Martin, who was less than half an hour apart before?

"I killed this traitor!" The murderer flaunted his might with a single knife. The surrounding militia looked at him with envy. "It was guessed by the Sage Master with supreme divine magic."

Buck's heart beat faster, could it be a prophetic magic? This kind of rare number of divine arts is quite rare, how can you encounter it in any village? The sense of foreboding is getting stronger, and things are going to get worse!

"I know that an assassin sent by the Harbor of Mertil has infiltrated this village, intent on disfavoring the Sage!" Martin's killer pointed out bluntly, his eyes glancing in the direction where Buck was hiding.

All the fanatical believers of the "sage" present heard this, and when they heard this, they all geared up, and there was a commotion, and they immediately looked left and right.

……

In the village chief's house, a young man dressed like an upstart was holding a pure and lovely girl, "Lizna, your little lover Martin is dead." ”

The girl looked disgusted: "Don't mention this person, the mention of him makes me sick." ”

"Of course no problem, my sweetheart...... Just mentioning that he was just an accident. The young man's eyes were filled with satisfaction.

He picked up a letter from the desk and patted it on his hand, "I'm interested in the poor creature who has infiltrated the village, and as soon as he stepped in, his boss sent me this letter on the back foot. It's really a tacit understanding! ”

The thin envelope said that the address was the Lord's Mansion of Mertil, but the name of André was written on the letter.
