One by one, this answer made Catherine and the others look sideways, and even Mo Ran felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

Because the old man replied too calmly, there was no anger, no unwillingness, and he seemed to have become accustomed to this kind of life as food.

At the same time, Mo Ran also understood why in this group of people, there were only old people and women, because they were the lowest group of people in the labor force, and they were... A group of outcasts.

Then, Mo Ran ignited a raging anger, but the object of his anger... Not werewolves, but people who abandoned the group.

Although Mo Ran has experienced a lot, his heart is not cold, and his blood is not cold, because there are always some touches accompanying him, such as Mu Xiaoqiu, such as Bufan.

Therefore, the most intolerable thing for Mo Ran is to abandon his relatives, friends, and partners.

"They... Abandoned you like this? ”

In the face of Mo Ran's roar, all the refugees were panicked and immediately prostrate on the ground to beg for forgiveness from the Holy One.

Only Xiao De, who was carried in his hand by Mo Ran, remained calm: "Lord Sage, we have not been abandoned and become food... It's the choice of our group. ”

"I'm old, and even if I stay in the village, I'm just going to survive. In that case, it might as well be food, which at least... can keep others alive. ”

The old man's calm words made Mo Ran's heart extremely depressed, the old man couldn't live, but someone had to die for it, and the old man just made the right choice for himself.

That's all.

Looking at the old man who was still calm despite trembling, Mo Ran slowly withdrew his anger.

Although poor people must have something to hate, Mo Ran will not release his anger to these poor people, but he is just a little angry.

However, everyone has his own choices, and perhaps in the eyes of others, these choices are ridiculous, but in his own mind, they are all there is.

is also like Mo Ran, although he knows that the road ahead is full of difficulties and obstacles, but if he doesn't hit his head and break the bloodstream, how can Mo Ran be willing.

After recovering his anger, Mo Ran put down the old man and turned to look at the prostrate refugees: "What if... You can only kneel, you only have servility in your bones, then continue to be food. ”

At this moment, Mo Ran showed the majesty of the superior, so even if he was uneasy in his heart, everyone still got up, after all, no one wants to be food, even if they are used to it... The same is true.

Then, the team set off again, only this time, no one would kneel down easily.

After Mo Ran calmed down, he asked, "By the way, Xiaode, what's the matter with the Sage?" ”

However, the old man didn't answer this time, just looked at Mo Ran with an inexplicable expression.

Mo Ran thought about it for a while, and then changed his rhetoric: "How much do you know about the Sage?" ”

But the old man still looked like he was hesitant, and he didn't seem to dare to say anything.

Mo Ran patted the old man on the shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, tell me everything you know." ”

The old man could be said to be flattered, so he wanted to kneel down again, but Mo Ran grabbed his shoulder. Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, so some things can only be changed by time.

The old man was stunned, and after seeing Mo Ran's calm eyes, he regained his mind and began to tell about the Sage.

"The Sage originated from a prophecy, in which the Sage possessed incredible power, not only being able to easily defeat the powerful dark race, but also being able to sprinkle a large amount of light at will."

Speaking of this, the old man looked at Catherine in awe, but he did not expect to be returned by Catherine with a bright smile.

This immediately brought tears to the old man's face, and then in his eyes, something called 'hope' appeared.

The old man secretly wiped away his tears and continued: "In the prophecy, the Holy One will break the darkness, let the light shine on the earth again, and lead mankind to find a land that belongs only to human beings......"

Mo Ran listened to the old man's narration, and shook his head imperceptibly, except for the sentence 'You can sprinkle a large piece of light with your hands', the rest is more like human imagination.

Because in the whole prophecy there is nothing substantial at all, so... Rather than being a prophecy, it is better to see it as a beautiful lie.

Mo Ran had seen many similar things before, such as... Good people are rewarded, for example... Whoever lives and believes in Me will never die.

These things come with a lot of good intentions, so there are a lot of people who want to believe it, but... They weren't as convinced as the old man.

Later, the old man began to tell about this plane and the dark race, but the old man knew very little about it.

But through the old man's narration, Mo Ran gradually understood why the old man was so convinced.

In the old man's mouth, this plane is called the Dark Continent, because it is forever shrouded in darkness.

On the Dark Continent, the Dark Race is the Uncrowned King, and although they are far less numerous than humans, they have the power to make humans despair.

Therefore, on the Dark Continent, humans are food, and they are free-range food.

The Dark Race divides the land among humans to thrive in, and humans have to hand over enough 'food' every month.

Therefore, in order to continue, human beings can only reproduce desperately, and only in this way can they hand over enough 'food'.

"Xiaode, haven't you thought about resisting?"

The old man's eyes suddenly showed a lot of sadness: "Sage, our resistance has never stopped, but we have all failed. The dark race is so powerful that it only takes a few squads to crush an army of thousands of human beings. ”

"After each defeat, the dark race will carry out exterminating massacres, so for the continuation of the race, there must be a part of the people who honestly act as 'food'."

In fact, the strength of werewolves is very weak, the level is only between level 2 and 3, but the strength of humans is even weaker, and there is almost no level.

At the same time, the physical fitness of werewolves is very strong, and this strength is completely derived from the strength of the essence of life, so werewolves are born to crush humans in terms of strength, speed, and vitality.

If it's just a competition for physical strength, then a werewolf fighting dozens of humans is not a problem at all, coupled with a strong vitality, humans want to kill werewolves, it's a complete fool's dream.

The enslavement of the dark race to human beings has reached tens of thousands of years, and if it were not for the existence of the prophecy, human beings would not have continued to this day, because... Prophecy is the hope of mankind.

In such a miserable life, if even hope is lost, then it can only sink in despair.

So, whether the predecessors left behind prophecies or lies, it contains a lot of good intentions.

Although the prophecy made servility and numbness, and penetrated deep into the marrow of mankind, at least it allowed humanity to continue.

After all... Only by living can there be hope.
