Chapter 13: The Ash Wood Blood Sacrifice (1)

After walking out of the village chief's house, everyone's task was finally on the right track, and they were all in a trance for a while. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Not long ago, they were ordinary mercenaries and nobles of the kingdom, but now they have become the warriors of the gods that many believers dream of, although it is not their own choice...... After relaxing, everyone felt hungry.

After some discussion, everyone first found the only inn in the village, and planned to eat something and study the next move. Hotels on the St. Ainos continent are generally located in the form of a tavern on the second floor, and Greywood Village is no exception. At this time, there were already more than a dozen villagers sitting in the hall, although they looked weird, but they were all talking and laughing loudly and drinking ale. It seems that they are no different from ordinary people, except for the anemia caused by the sacrifice to the blood god.

Ashwagen Village is so small that the menu is only brown bread, bacon, roast potatoes and roast chicken, but there are several types of liquor, but the prices are very high. The currency issued by the Rhine Kingdom in the southern part of the continent was different from the currency of this world, so only the small deposit that the coachman had given to Sinon could be spent. In desperation, they ordered the cheapest brown bread and baked potatoes, and five glasses of ale.

Needless to say, Henry's national teacher usually eats fine clothes and fine food, and even the mercenaries like Aluka usually eat much better than these things. But they had suffered a lot before, and had eaten rat meat for many days, so that even the bitter and coarse black bread became sweet, and the fragrant and hot baked potatoes could not be stopped.

After eating, everyone drank ale and began to discuss what to do next.

"At present, it seems that the blood god worshiped in this village is probably the ancient god mentioned in the mission. Arouca sipped the wooden wine glass with iron on it, and his fingertips tapped rhythmically on the table, which was his habitual action when reading and thinking, "Considering that there are nature gods in this world, and they are much more powerful than the blood gods, I don't think the blood gods will jump out arrogantly to fight us." If he had caught the attention of the god of the lake, he would have survived for less than a few days, even if he had killed us all. In other words, the first difficulty in this quest is how to find the Blood God. ”

Cui Hak took a big sip of wine and muttered, "How is this good? If I let Lao Tzu know that he is there, it will not be a problem to cut him with a sword, but it is not suitable for me to find someone who is so brain-consuming." ”

Arouca smiled: "Actually, it's not difficult, I have two plans now." First, let the Green Lake Knights attack Ash Wood Village and see if they can force the Blood God. In this way, even if we fail in the main quest 2, the deducted Ainos coins will be made up by the main quest 1. But there are two drawbacks to this plan, one is that we can't get any gains, and if the next time the difficulty of the game increases, I'm afraid we'll die there, and the other is that the blood god may not be forced out, he may give up this existence and flee to other places to continue to develop believers. ”

Xinong pondered for a moment and said, "This plan can't work, it's too risky, I don't agree." ”

Aluca said indifferently: "Then there is a second plan, which I think is the simplest and most feasible plan." First we complete the main quest two, and then ...... Set fire to the village in the middle of the night and block the entrance of the village to kill every villager who escaped. In this way, the Blood God will lose its followers, its strength will decrease, and without the threat of the Lake God, He will definitely show up in anger to fight us. What do you think?"

Everyone looked at Aluca in surprise when they heard this, and it took a long time for Jofa to tremble and say, "Aren't you crazy?"

Xinong also frowned and said: "I will never agree to this plan, you have also seen, although these villagers look strange and believe in evil gods, they are also living people. They are all innocent, only tempted by the Old Gods. Tu Cun is such a thing, even the craziest fanatics can't do it. Even the Inquisition of the Red Sect did not do such a thing, at most it was to kill the gods of the cult and re-educate the people who were tempted. ”

Cui Hak also shook his head and said: "Although Lao Tzu is not a knight and has killed many people, at least there is still human nature. I will never use a sword against an unarmed innocent. Wolf cub ...... You can't really be raised by the Timberwolves, right?"

Henry didn't speak, just looked at Aluka with disapproval.

Unsurprisingly, Aluka was questioned by everyone, shrugged and said, "Even if you agreed, I wouldn't do it now, but I reserve the idea of using this plan as a way out." I don't know if you remember, but the village chief mentioned that the blood god can give believers divine powers. The villagers of Greywood Village do not die for any unnatural cause, except for having their heads cut off. If we were to carry out this plan, it would take twice as much effort to deal with them, but the benefits would be obvious. Also, I advise you not to be naΓ―ve. What does it mean that the blood god can give believers divine power? It shows that this world is different from our St. Ainos continent! Since the blood god can, won't the lake god give some divine power to the knights who believe in him? Even if he doesn't, who among us except the teacher dares to guarantee that he can kill a knight one-on-one? There are at least a dozen knights who are attacking, and it is difficult for us to deal with this alone, so let's care about our own lives first, and then think about saving these villagers. ”

"I didn't expect your analytical skills to be so strong, brother...... Hehe, maybe that's the benefit of reading more. After listening to Aluca's explanation, Sinong felt a sense of agreement, "To be honest, I didn't expect what you said, it seems that it is better to listen to you more in the future." ”

"Oh?" said Aluka, "then can I just talk and give you the glorious task of killing the enemy?"

"Of course not. ”

"You're thinking so beautifully. ”

"Lao Tzu can push you into the crowd with one kick and let you try to see if you can defeat the enemy with your mouth. ”

"Alright. Sinong patted the table and made a final decision, "We're running out for time. Master Guoshi, please go to the village chief of Feide again to get some information, and you have to see the combat effectiveness of the militia with your own eyes. I think it's better for you to do these things, we are not very good at dealing with nobles. The two of them, the teacher and the two of them, are in charge of protecting the national teacher, and Aluka and I will go to see the doctor mentioned by the village chief of Feide and let's get started. ”

Trihak said dissatisfiedly, "I just found out, when did you kid start giving orders?"

Xinong spread his hands and smiled: "If the teacher has any high opinions, I will naturally listen to them as a student." ”

Cui Hak said with a bitter face: "Forget it, this job is really not suitable for me...... But don't forget, I'm more intelligent than all of you!

"Thank you to the great sun god. Aluka prayed, "Your divine power will make pigs climb trees." ”

This time he was slapped on the table with a slap on the head......

β€”β€”

After splitting up, Aluka and Sinong walked silently on the dirt road in the village. Aluca knew that Sinon was thinking about the two plans he had proposed before, and despite his stern rejection, man is always a creature of contradictions. On the one hand, they are reluctant to harm civilians out of kindness and a sense of honor, and on the other hand, they are worried about their own lives and want to take a more prudent approach. If it were a white cultist here, he would definitely sacrifice himself to complete the gray wood village without saying a word. However, there was no such great belief in the teachings of the Red Sect, and the sun god only taught them to be brave and diligent, and to always be filled with a sense of honor and loyalty.

Aluka doesn't care what other people decide in the end, and the word "scruples" never exists in his dictionary. If the situation develops to the point where it is necessary to slaughter the village, he will do it even if everyone is against it. At this time, Aluka focused on observing the grass and trees, brick and tile of Ash Wood Village.

So far, he has not found any plants that do not exist on the continent of St. Ainos, and the houses in Greywood Village are similar to those in his hometown of Whitegrass Village. It can be seen that this plane is just a derivative of the St. Ainos continent. But who created this face? Aluka didn't believe that the Blood God had created it, believing that the Blood God had simply discovered the plane and fled after being defeated by the gods. After all, if the Blood God had created this place, the biggest force in this plane would not have been the Lake God Sect.

If the gods had created these planes, what was their purpose other than to give the ancient gods a place to hide? Why did they create these planes? The unanswerable questions made Aluka excited, desperate for answers. In his opinion, exploring the secrets of this world is much more interesting than completing tasks, and he always only looks at whether it is interesting or not.

In a way, this desire is more terrible than the usual human desire. Coveting money, power, beauty, and delicacies...... There are traces of these. But who knows what will pique someone's interest?

After a short time, the two came to the hospital in the mouth of the village chief Feide. Xinon stepped forward and gently knocked on the wooden door three times with his middle finger, and there was an immediate sound of footsteps behind the door, which was opened in a few seconds.

A pale, skinny man stood behind the door, and although the sacrifice to the Blood God had made him neither human nor ghostly, Aluka could still see his past demeanor. A person's face is easy to change, but his demeanor and temperament will not change easily, and most of the doctors in front of him are also from a noble background.

The doctor stared at a pair of large blue eyes that were about to bulge out of his sockets, and said suspiciously, "......Outsiders?" Are you mercenaries hired by the village chief?"

Xinong smiled: "That's right, we just came to the village today, and the village chief said that if we have any problems, we can come to you." ”

The doctor scratched his sparse short pale blonde hair and said shyly, "Okay, you two please come in, you can call me Peter." Greywood Village is so poor that I'm afraid I don't have any tea to entertain you, so please forgive me. ”

After the three of them sat down in the doctor's study, the doctor asked, "What do you want to know from me?"

"First of all. Just as Sinon was about to speak, Aluca suddenly interrupted him and said solemnly, "I want to know why you're here." ”
