The residence is just an ordinary house.

However, the vicinity of this two-story house is very different from the rest of Echo Ancient Town.

People barely move around here.

They silently restrained their movements, and surrounded the unremarkable wooden house, with people watching every corner, as if they could not tolerate anything in the house escaping.

And look closely.

You will find that the people surrounding the house are all awakened!

Even if there are no powerhouses beyond the fifth stage, the oppressive power directly brought by the gathering of more than a dozen awakened people is quite sufficient.

In contrast, a man stands alone at the door of the house.

He looked at the awakened around him, and in the open door behind him, he could faintly hear the woman's cry.

Among the awakened who surrounded the house, one spoke to the man:

"Folz, let's go in and talk slowly."

"It's still raining, and you've been blocking everyone at the door, isn't it?"

"Go in?"

Forts, who was guarding the doorway, raised an eyebrow.

In the face of the awakened people surrounding the room, and the persuasion that seemed to be given a step, his attitude did not retreat:

"Just have something to say outside."

"Mrs. Hela has been frightened too much in the past two days, what do you want to do with her when you go in?"

Among the awakened who surrounded the house, someone immediately replied:

"Fortz, we're not interested in ordinary people."

"As long as you are honest about what happened that night, we promise to leave immediately, and there will be no danger here!"

Folz looked at the man who spoke:

"You're not interested in her?"

"I think you're ignoring her feelings! What would happen to an ordinary person who was broken into his home by such an inexplicable group of awakened people? ”

Nearby, the Awakened shouted Folz's name and questioned:

"Folzi!"

"If you really care about the woman in the back, you shouldn't stay here."

"What's going on here?"

Folz sneered:

"I want to go, but will you let me go?"

“……”

Crackle - Crackle -

The rain was light, but it kept falling from the sky.

The sound of tapping on the eaves is dense and rapid, as if it is knocking on people's restless hearts.

Fulds's face was wet with the rain.

But he remained steadfast at the door, alone against the crowd.

Although the Awakened who surrounded the house had the advantage, no one dared to break the deadlock first.

Because Folz is a true believer.

The object of his belief is a natural and animistic concept, and his craft is also a miracle caused by faith.

If there is a conflict with Foltz, or even a fight, it is nothing.

But if you really force the situation to life and death.

Someone even killed Folz in the chaos.

Then some inexplicable bad luck will entangle itself and demand a price for the evil people who kill the believers.

This kind of consequence is not something that everyone dares to bear.

A few more seconds passed, and Folz looked around with a condescending look:

"You think it's easy to bully me if I'm the only one?"

"If you have the guts, try it! When the old dog gnaws on the bones, it is inevitable that he will break his rotten teeth! ”

There are awakened people next to him who still want to be peacemakers:

"Fortz, don't get me wrong."

"We're doing it for your good, too."

"Your companion is suddenly gone, and everyone wants to help you ......"

Bang!

Folz didn't finish his words.

He snorted coldly and closed the door.

Just like the situation for the past two days, the situation around the house has returned to a stalemate.

When he returned to the house, he saw Hela sitting in front of the fireplace crying.

Hela was a gentle woman.

This small building is also the other party's entire property in the echo ancient river, and the second floor is usually used as a residence for some tourists.

Hela's life is very common throughout the town.

But now, because of the problems of the Awakened, she has to endure pain and panic.

"Ahh

Folz sighed.

He shook off the rain from his body on the porch, and then stepped forward to comfort:

"Lady Hela, I'm sorry."

"It's because of us staying here that we caused you so much trouble."

Hela just shook her head:

"Mr. Foltz, I know you're not bad people."

"But if they keep surrounding them like this, how are they going to live these days?"

“……”

"I'll find a way to solve the problem as soon as possible."

Folz comforted Hela for a while, then returned to the room on the second floor, where she prepared to rest after a daily prayer.

Click-

As soon as the door opened, Forts paused as he reached out.

The sight that caught his eye was indeed the room he had stayed in for more than a month.

But the details are different from the past, in the bedroom where Folz lives, a strange man is sitting in a chair by the window.

"The Awoken?"

Folz is a spirit.

He naturally thought that the group of people outside were unwilling to be lonely and sneaked in to find him some trouble.

But before he could do it, Folz stopped moving.

As a believer in the belief in nature.

He found that the man in front of him had an aura that was very close to him, as if nature was loving and blessing each other.

“……”

Folz calmed down and looked carefully at the man in front of him.

In the past month or so in Echo Valley, the awakened here have not known each other, but most of them have also met each other.

But now in his room, it was a completely unfamiliar face.

Is it really a stranger, or is it a disguised identity?

Folz took two defensive steps back and stood in the doorway.

He didn't do it immediately, nor did he give up his vigilance, but asked cautiously:

"Who are you? Why did you break into my room? ”

The other side.

Lindsay, who was sitting in the room, also breathed a sigh of relief.

His original idea was to subdue the other party and use rough means to ask for information.

But since the other party can calm down and communicate with himself.

That couldn't be better.

Lindsay said very frankly:

"Mr. Foltz, I've come to you to find out what happened the night before."

"The forest mutation did end a week ago, but the crisis hasn't really left yet. In order to prevent things from getting worse again, I'm trying to gather as much information as I can on this. ”

“……”

Foltz's brow furrowed.

If someone else used this statement, he would certainly not believe it.

But as a believer in nature, Foltz's instincts told him not to be so reckless.

He looked closely at Lindsay's breath at the moment, and found an even more incredible scene.

The will of the forest was in the face of the man in front of him.

What is shown is not rejection or ignorance, but a tendency to be kind and protective!

- This may be the one who can solve the problem!

"I ......"

Folz opened his mouth.

But as soon as he said a byte, his lips began to tremble, and his body froze in place.

The powerful force of skill began to affect Fortz's body.

He couldn't even speak!
