"Ah, Miss Molly...... You...... Hello. When Hank turned his head to see the woman, he quickly recognized the other person, and he replied in a hesitant manner.
"I've said it many times, Hank, just call me Molly." The woman appeared to be about Hank's age, a little shorter than him, and her white attire suggests that she is a resident of the Third District.
"Are these two your friends? Huh? How do they wear protective clothing? Molly asked, confused.
"Miss Molly." Hank's expression was tense, sweat dripping down his sideburns, he mustered up his courage, and before he could open his mouth, he said: "My friend and I have something to do, I don't have time now, please forgive me, I'll come back when we're done and apologize and explain to you......" he said and was about to continue walking.
"Errands?" Molly looked at Hank quizzically, "To the third area?" Her gaze quickly fell on Feng Bujue and the Crazy Sword Shadow again: "Why don't you change out of your protective clothing?" Her gaze shifted upward, and the unusual heights of the two players further aroused her suspicions: "Are you also scavengers?" What are you going to do? ”
Hank glared, "This is an order from above. He accentuated, "Please leave it alone, Miss Molly." ”
"Hank, what's wrong with you?" Molly replied; "You would never talk like that."
"Hey......" Feng Bujue said at this time: "Actually, he wants to help you." He paused, "Unfortunately, I've decided now that I can't let you go." ”
"It's on the street, and if you kill someone, you'll be surrounded immediately!" Hank lowered his voice and said to Feng Bua.
"Ms. Molly." Feng didn't pay attention to Hank, but said to Molly, "I'm sorry, I have to invite you to come with us." ”
Molly instinctively took two steps back: "Who the hell are you?" She looked at Hank, "Hank, what the hell is going on?" ”
"Hank has been kidnapped by us, and if you shout now, run away, or do anything that might bring in a patrolman, Hank will be killed." Feng Bujue first said the threatening words to prevent the other party from acting rashly: "I know." You may not believe me at this moment, but please think calmly about the situation in front of you based on what you know about Hank to determine whether what I am saying next is true. ”
Feng Bujue said: "We have some kind of weapon in our hands that can quickly and effectively kill others, and the two of us also have abilities beyond your imagination, whether it is running speed, jumping power, or survivability, they have surpassed your knowledge of human beings."
If we were exposed, Hank would be dead immediately. Then we will kill every villager who tries to get close to or stop us, and your village will suffer at least a thousand people, not to mention material losses.
But if you're willing to cooperate and take us around the area in front of us, we'll leave quietly when we've achieved our goal.
Now, you can choose whether to cooperate with us or start shouting. ”
…………
Five minutes later, in the third area.
"It's unbelievable that you're bringing outsiders into the village." Molly whispered to Hank in a complaining tone.
Hank walked beside her. also replied softly: "I was held hostage...... It's like the two of us are in the same situation now. ”
"What are we...... From now on, I'm going to draw a line with you. Molly replied unhappily, "I should have listened to my family and avoided associating with people in the First District. ”
"Alas......" Hank opened his mouth. In the end, he still didn't say anything, and many times, even if he had a thousand words, he could only turn into a sigh.
At this time, Feng Bujue and Crazy Sword Shadow walked behind these two people, and since Molly walked in front, no one on the street patrolman stepped forward to ask questions. It seems that finding a resident of the third area to lead the way really works.
"Don't worry, Ms. Molly. All you need to do is follow us to the junction of Sector 3 and Sector 4. Feng Bujue said at this time: "Next, you can leave." ”
Molly was visibly stunned when she heard this: "You want to enter the fourth area?" She then asked, "What about Hank?" Will you let him go too? ”
"Hmph...... I'm afraid not and no. Feng Bujue replied.
"Huh...... Thank you then. Hank replied with a wry smile.
This answer surprised Molly, but then Hank explained in a self-defeating tone, "I want to ...... From the moment I brought you into the village, it was impossible for me to stay in the village any longer. ”
"Oh? I finally realized it. Feng Bujue said.
"I should have thought of it when you didn't let me go back to my life before, but I was deceived by you." Hank said, "I'm really too slow, I just figured it out. ”
Feng Bujue said: "Then, I can also say it, no matter what the outcome of this matter in front of you is, as long as you fall into the hands of Kouben's minions, you will definitely die, only if we succeed, you will have a way to live." ”
"I don't even know what the hell you're going to do." Hank replied.
The mad trace sword shadow put on a dead fish face, looked at Feng Buju, and said, "Yes...... I don't know very well, can you tell me. ”
"First of all, what we have to do is certainly not to massacre the villagers. If we want to do that kind of thing, we can go straight to the killing spree when we enter the residential area. Feng Bujue said: "Secondly, we can't just visit the customs, I don't think you really believe that kind of reason." He laughed, "My main purpose is to gain scientific and technological knowledge in the temple. The secondary purpose is to change the social system of the village. ”
"What technology are you talking about? There is no scientific knowledge in the temple at all, and there are scriptures passed down by the gods, and only a very small number of sacrifices are qualified to learn them. Molly interjected.
"This nonsense is a lie that you have been indoctrinated at an age when you have not been able to distinguish between right and wrong." Feng Bujue said: "The Kouben family just monopolized some natural science knowledge that you don't know, and they don't let you access that knowledge, so as to enslave you with religious lies. He sighed sadly: "Ignorance and panic are two beasts that inhabit the hearts of mankind and are eternally hungry and thirsty, and only civilization can defeat them, and they stand guard on the ladder of human progress, constantly devouring the pioneers."
In the days in which you live, a thousand years ago, innocent women were burned as witches for a good night's sleep or a good harvest the next year; Five hundred years ago. People take Darwin's theories out of context, shout 'we are not monkeys', and forbid the teaching of evolution in schools, hehe...... I don't think there's much difference between this group and the monkeys.
And more than 200 years ago...... The people of House Koben have the spark of knowledge firmly in their hands, keeping those of you who live in darkness and cold in fear and ignorance so that they can reign and enslave for a long time. ”
"I don't believe your nonsense, the priest has warned us a long time ago, outsiders are devils full of lies. You don't want to distort my faith with those blasphemous words. Molly replied.
"Ah~ they're just trying to make sure ...... When you meet someone who knows the truth, do not be influenced by those words. Feng Bujue sneered: "They still let you kill outsiders unconditionally, didn't they?" ”
"Give up, you'll be dead if you meet the guards, they're not the same as the patrolmen, they'll kill anyone who tries to break into the Fourth Sector, whether you have hostages or not......" Molly still didn't know what to do, "As long as you promise to let Hank and me go, I can try to get you out of the village." ”
"Hmm...... You're better at negotiating than Hank. Feng Bujue said: "But unfortunately, our purpose will not change." He laughed: "And...... There's no way Hank is on Coburn's side anymore, is he? Buddy. ”
Molly turned her head in surprise to look at Hank, who was calm like never before: "I'm sorry. Miss Molly, there's only one way in front of me. Just act with them, and I can't go back. ”
"Hank......" Molly reads, "Have you been bewitched by the evil sorcery of these two outsiders?" ”
"No, I'm sober, I've never been so sober." Hank replied, "Although these two outsiders have repeatedly threatened to kill me, at least they are not using any gods or anything to manipulate my mind. He said firmly, "If the Son of God tells us is true, then I am a sinner who helps outsiders and tries to subvert the gods." I don't know what the outcome will be, but at most one death anyway. At this moment, even if I kill these two outsiders with my own hands. What can be done? Will the priests let me go? I will be punished and sentenced to death. Instead of dying like that, it's better to fight. ”
The Crazy Sword Shadow smiled for some reason: "Well said. Hank, go on. ”
Hank continued, "And what if, these two outsiders are right? Are the so-called sons of God and the priests all lies? ”
"Do you know what you're talking about? Hank, how can this be ......" Molly tried to interrupt him.
Hank asked rhetorically, "Why is it impossible?" He turned to look at Molly, "I was told by birth that I was a member of God's people, and that I had to obey the Kouben family and the priests in everything, and that if I violated what they said, I would be punished against God's will." My father and brother risked their lives to work and labor, but they could only barely survive. And the priests lived in luxury, but did nothing.
I can only learn what they have assigned me to learn, say what they allow me to say, do what they have sent me to do, and sing praises to them and bow down.
If this is God's will, then a god like this is not worth giving any more to, because it obviously does not want to repay us believers, he just treats us as donkeys and horses, and only the Koben family and the priests are human beings. ”
Molly looked at Hank with a surprised look, "You're crazy......"
"Perhaps." "But I feel great, I've never felt so good like I have now, and for the first time I feel that my fate is in my own hands, and even if the price of this feeling is death, I will not regret it," Hank said. ”
"It's called 'freedom.'" Feng Bujue said: "When the prison they impose on your mind is broken, whether you are in prison or dying, at least from this moment on, you are free, as long as you still breathe, no one can take away your freedom again." Feng Bujue said in a very incendiary tone: "As long as you help us, overthrow the monopoly of knowledge on the Koben family and the priests, and expose their lies...... Hank, not only will you survive, you'll become a hero. All your compatriots, including this Miss Molly, can taste the taste of freedom. (To be continued)
