Section 33 Hidden Villages
The Greatsword Incident brought the relationship between humans and lizardfolk to an impasse.
The two gangs snubbed each other, making Laurenna, who was in the middle, even more embarrassed.
However, food and water are still indispensable.
Although everyone was silent, they obeyed Mark's orders and set off towards the hidden village.
Along the way, only Clark was still heartless and excited.
gushing about the magic of mecha and the decadence of Valen.
It was as if the person who had done it was not Mark but himself.
Mark didn't stop his talking.
Wang Qiang, Tucker and Winston are also unprecedented, and they never blame him from beginning to end.
After all, silence is not as comfortable as talking eloquently, at least it can add some excitement and relieve a little loneliness in the itinerary.
It can be seen from the eyes of the lizard guards that they no longer despise, despise, or even ignore this group of "slaves".
Although it is not respectful, it no longer shows mockery and ridicule.
The whole incident didn't change much for humans and the lizard guards for the time being, but Mark was convinced that a bud had taken root in their hearts.
With enough time, it will prove that no one will look down on anyone, whether human or lizardmen.
Only Valen.
Sadness is inevitable, indifference is necessary, but anger is not.
Maybe it was because of what Lorenna said to him.
Although he didn't say anything, he could see that his mood was much better.
Approaching the hidden village, fearing that the sudden arrival of lizard soldiers would startle the villagers.
Winston and Clark were sent to inform the villagers that a visitor was coming.
Soon after they went, the two returned.
Clark replied: "Report Big Brother!" It was strange inside, there was no one. ”
"Oh. Where did these people go? Mark was amazed.
"I don't know, but when we saw that the situation was not good, we came back to tell you." Clark replied.
"Looks like we're going to have to check it out again."
"I'll go too." Laurenna insisted on following.
"Let's go too, it's easy to get things done." Wang Qiang and Tucker insisted on going together.
"Okay. The rest of the people camped in place and waited for us to come back. Mark ordered.
Everyone walked into the village, and as Clark said, there was no one to be seen.
The food in the pots and pans still has residual temperature.
"Did something happen, or did they find out that we were coming, and these people went out to hide?" Noticing this strange scene, Wang Qiang asked earnestly.
"No, it shouldn't be." Mark mused: "If something happens, it's messy, it's not going to be as orderly. ”
"Hmm. Let's split up and take a closer look. Wang Qiang agrees.
In their suspicions, the group continued to go deeper into the village.
There was a faint voice in front of me, and although I couldn't hear the meaning of the words, I could tell that the words were very passionate.
Listening to the sound and identifying the position, everyone gathered and went deeper towards the sound source.
The road winds and spirals upward.
After passing through a forest, there is a platform on the hill.
The stream next to it is murmuring and extremely claustrophobic.
"There!" Clark screamed, "No wonder there's no one, it's all here." ”
"Let's go, let's take a look."
On the platform, a group of people surrounded one person.
Surrounded by the crowd, a figure stood out.
This man's face is covered with a mask.
The mask is scarlet, and the appearance is hideous and terrifying.
Facing the sun, his hands raised in the air, and his mouth kept shouting: "God loves the world...... man!" ”
"God so loved the world!"
After repeated shouting, everyone raised their arms and shouted.
The emotions were as intense as those of the crazy spectators in the gladiatorial arena.
Mark stood on the edge of the crowd, but the crowd was indulging in chanting and didn't notice it.
He is taller, so he can see it at a glance.
Suddenly, I felt that the voice of the masked man was familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was.
The man suddenly flew into the air, slowly levitating in the air.
With open arms, he flew towards the crowd.
The body is elegant, like an angel, but the mask he wears is so hideous and terrifying.
Maybe the hideous face is more rendering, Mark thought to himself.
The man floated around the field, and slowly landed amid the amazement of the crowd.
Those who truly feel helpless will receive God's mercy. Those who truly feel guilty will receive God's forgiveness. Despair is the medicine for life! The end of man is the beginning of God, and those who have to give up themselves will have the privilege of finding God at hand......"
The speech was subdued and frustrated, and it was very exciting, driving the emotions of the people.
"God and I am! God and I are ......" everyone waved their fists and shouted, united as one.
The high emotions played up Clark and the others, and Mark caught a glimpse of Clark also raising his arms and shouting.
"Whew! ~”
There was a crisp sound, and the masked man tore through his clothes, leaving his upper body bare.
"Ah~"
The people were astonished, stopped shouting, and looked at each other.
Only the back of the person is close to the ground, slowly elongated, as if breaking free from the invisible shackles.
After breaking the cocoon, the black shadow changed dramatically, and the sharp corners of his head slowly stretched out, but this person was unaware of it, and still said the teachings:
"If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away. It is better to lose one body than to throw the whole body into hell. ”
The dark shadow gradually grew larger, and its teeth and claws danced.
The action is realistic, as if it is real, which startles many women and children to scream in fear.
With a startled sound, the black shadow did not stop moving, but pounced towards the masked man......
Everything came to an abrupt end with the fusion of the shadow and the flesh.
The masked man curled up on the ground, as if experiencing great human pain, scratching at his body and convulsing.
After a while, as if he had trapped the "demon" with his body, his voice became extremely strange, and he spoke in accents of different heights and heights:
"O origin of all evil, O world of chaos, everything will disappear with it. Only by believing in Me, worshiping Me, and dedicating yourself to Me can you find peace and enter Elysium, and there is no other way......"
The muffled double tone felt familiar to Mark and yet so unfamiliar.
In particular, this man's approach was not a priest's sermon, but a superstition.
Under his multiple bewilderments, the villagers could not escape his powerful "appearance".
"The end is coming! God loves the world! ”
Amidst the chanting, the villagers fell to their knees one by one.
Prostrate on his body, touching the ground with the back of his hand, and chanting in his mouth: "We believe in you, we serve you, we dedicate ourselves to you, you are our only true God......"
The crowd kowtowed.
Mark and the others stood on their own, out of place with this scene.
A man walked towards the masked man.
The masked man threw his head back and stretched out his arms, completely immersed in the worship of the crowd, not noticing the presence of outsiders.
After the man woke up, he raised his eyes.
After making eye contact with Mark, the masked man was shocked......
Mark noticed that the man had an army nameplate around his neck!
The nameplate is exactly the same as its own, but it is lost in its own.
Apparently the man noticed himself and waved at the villagers: "That's all for today!" ”
The villagers stood up, their eyes full of doubt.
"Mark?"
The sudden call made me stunned.
This......
It's definitely him!!
The call confirmed his thoughts, and he was sure that it was him!
Surprised, he blurted out, "Mike! Is that you? Mike ......"
Tear through the crowd and gallop.
Under the suspicious gaze of everyone, he pounced on the masked man.
Yes, indeed yes, that's him!
I was very excited, the person in front of me was indeed McCall!
The man, though shocked, seemed hesitant when he saw Mark rushing towards him.
After tearing off the mask, he also flew over like a long-lost relative reunited.
The two hugged each other tightly and kept slapping each other's bodies as a sign of affection.
"Great! I didn't expect our brothers to be able to reunite. ”
"Brother! My comrade-in-arms. That's great......" McCall was thrilled, and his voice was pitched.
"Mark! Is that you? ”
A graceful figure suddenly appeared, and then flew in.
The running speed is slow, and the long flying blonde hair obscures the face.
While running, he lifted his long hair that was blocked, revealing a beautiful face.
"Catherine!" Mark exclaimed again.
"Mark! Sure enough, it's you! Catherine shouted.
"Oh my God~ God forbid!"
The three of them hugged each other warmly, looked at each other, and greeted each other.
Everyone didn't know why, but they were unusually obedient to McCall's orders.
Seeing that there was nothing to see, the villagers dispersed one after another.
