Chapter 15: Killing Intent

Soon, the two arrived at the small village that Ye Ran said. Although it is a small village, the place also has all the basics, a supply grocery store, a repair shop, and a church.

The beautiful world of the world.

For the first time, Asuna looked at this world without the slightest haze, and found that this world was so beautiful.

Ye Ran took Asuna into the village quietly, strangely, Ye Ran didn't see anyone along the way, this scene made Asuna can't help but feel strange in her heart.

Arriving at the church, the design of the church is similar to the real world, it is a building covering an area of hundreds of square meters, avoiding the main entrance, Ye Ran leaned under the window and listened quietly.

There was no movement, and Asuna, who is still a novice to the level 1 whiteboard, did not strengthen her agility attribute like other players, nor did she go out of her way to waste valuable skill slots to learn the skill of eavesdropping, and of course she could not detect any sounds. So she could only judge the situation of things by the expression on Ye Ran's face.

But Asuna was destined to be disappointed, because Ye Ran didn't have any expression on his face at all, just a calm and indifferent face.

"Nobody."

Suddenly, Ye Ran spoke, and Asuna almost fell under her feet. This person, no one still looks serious!

Shhhh

This is... The sound of prayer?

In front of them was a large crater that had caved steeply into the ground, in which two men in silver metal armor walked down the stairs to the bottom of the stairs. Walking to the door of the pit, Ye Ran and Asuna stretched out their heads to look.

Hey?

What's going on?

What caught their eyes was a staircase that spread diagonally downward, carved with patterns similar to those of the church, and at the end of the staircase there was a huge execution table, on which a small girl was being tied, and the bottom was full of firewood. The surrounding residents who were supposed to stay in the village were bowing their heads and praying one by one with solemn expressions.

For a moment, Asuna almost thought she had seen what would have only appeared in an oil painting.

The execution table, the burning at the stake, the little girl, and the crowd around them.

At this time, a middle-aged priest dressed in white stepped forward and said loudly: "Now, the magic sword Kirkod is about to appear, and all the sources of evil will be destroyed by us. I know that everyone is also very unbearable, but this is no way! If she is not executed, she will bring calamity! As long as she is purified, then nothing will happen, this is the prophecy of the archbishop! ”

The girl who was tied to it, her long white hair hanging weakly, seemed to have been crushed by a long period of hunger, and at this time, the godfather held a torch, and slowly walked into front of the firewood, and looked at the girl with a look full of kindness, as if he was not going to burn the girl but to coax her to sleep.

The fire was lit, and the flames crackled and burned.

As if awakened by the heat, the girl slowly raised her head and looked around in a blank manner.

The crowd did not dare to look up at the girl, so they could only silently bow their heads and clasp their hands, put their foreheads against their fists, and kept silently reciting the contents of the Bible to reduce their guilt.

"How can this..."

Burning at the stake? Witch? The voice that came clearly came into Asuna's ears, and Asuna didn't expect to encounter such an ancient scene in this game world.

Before she could react, Asuna only felt a wind blow around her.

Immediately afterward, she saw the man running with his body pressed down, his steps lightly, as if he were about to tear through the air, and in a short moment, he approached the crowd.

"What people!"

"Who?"

"Hey, stop."

She clearly saw that the man kicked sharply, squatted slightly, and then, leaping high, turning three hundred and sixty degrees in the air. At the same time, the sword was unsheathed and plunged into the shoulder of one of the guards with an extremely rapid and terrifying force, and the long sword that entered through the crack in the metal nailed it to the ground as it landed.

"It's you..."

Drawing his sword, ignoring the crimson data stream flowing under him, Ye Ran's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at the girl with long white hair full of dirty spots, looking at the look in her eyes that didn't even exist in despair, for the first time, Ye Ran's killing intent was pervasive.

This killing intent even turned into substance, and the sword body scattered, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the priest, and said softly: "It's me..."

Yes!! The people who were awakened by the sudden incident began to push and shout and disperse, with screams and hesitations.

"Hmph... So, the magic sword is on you. ”

The white-robed priest took out a white sword from under the white robe, a silver-white sword covered with exquisite patterns, waved his hand casually, squinted his eyes and said solemnly: "Return the magic sword to the church, you can still be forgiven, otherwise..."

It's noisy.

Ye Ran, who was squinting, looked at the priest with a calm face, and couldn't help but feel bored for a while at the guards who surrounded him with silver spears, no, it should be called church knights. The expression was so indifferent that the priest felt a chill welling up in his heart.

Moved, how fast was Ye Ran's sword?

I don't know what to do, under the addition of the rules of this world, Asuna only saw a white light instantly sweep over the priest's body, slashed down with a sword, and cut the stake that bound the girl with a sword, and then turned into several white lights to block several swinging spears, and then threw the girl in her hand casually.

{Save the Witch, note that this quest will reduce your reputation in the Church, so choose wise.} }

Asuna was also running, stretching out her hands, calmly judging where the girl would fall according to the trajectory, and at this moment, what Asuna had learned in the past made this trajectory into the purest data directly presented in her mind.

Ah, then, just throw people away like this, what the hell does this person want!!

Puffed down on the ground and hugged the girl into her arms, Asuna realized that the little girl was smaller than expected, looking at her chapped lips, Asuna hurriedly called out a jar of spring water from the inventory and fed it to the girl.

The girl took a sip of spring water, and her eyes never left Ye Ran, who was confronting the church knights on the stage.

It's so small, such a small girl, why can they be so cruel.

Asuna gently stroked the girl's hair, looking at Ye Ran on the stage worriedly, as for the task window that popped up just now, of course she directly accepted it.

At this time, the middle-aged priest's face was still calm, and after years of cultivation, he had long learned to hide his emotions behind the mask, his eyes narrowed, and he said to Ye Ran: "You guy, do you want to blaspheme?" ”

"In this world, there is no god."

The long sword waved, and with a step on his footsteps, the killing intent on his body was almost full, a little white light lit up, and the sword shadows in the air were vertical and horizontal, and in an instant, the intertwined sword shadows covered all the people in the field, and they were absolutely violent.

The sword cultivation technique urged the sword yuan that turned into sword strength, and the sword veins in Ye Ran's body were rushing with killing intent, and Ye Ran could clearly see that the hundreds of sword yuan in the upper right corner were slowly declining.

Go forward, be fearless, and go straight to your heart.

Don't ask for gods, don't ask for immortals, don't ask for people.

All Ye Ran asked for was the sword in his hand.

This is the swordsman.

This is what he walked, the way of the sword.
