Chapter 779 The Script is Here
The evening sunlight is lazy, and the orange-yellow sun has been blocked by the towering cliffs of the mountains.
Only the orange-red afterglow of the sunset diffused from the other side of the mountain, maintaining the last bit of light in the sky.
"roar!"
A ferocious monster roared towards the sky, its body covered with black hair, like a giant bear crawling on the ground, ready to devour its prey.
But now it was covered with wounds, and there were many fully armed people holding cold weapons around it, staring at it vigilantly.
The next moment, whoosh!
A steel feather arrow surrounded by arcs of electricity broke through the air and shot accurately into the monster's one eye.
Crackling!
A thick arc of electricity burst out instantly, and the monster froze in place. It soon fell to the ground, raising a large cloud of dust.
"Good archery!"
A middle-aged man with a full beard praised, and a young boy hiding behind a tree not far away came out, touching his head shyly.
"Little Locke is getting stronger and stronger. He will definitely become a divine warrior serving the witch god in the future."
Many people in the same group praised the performance, which made the boy's cheeks turn redder and redder.
After a while of fighting, the middle-aged man shouted, "Alright, alright, clean up the battlefield. Now that this bear demon has been killed, the town can be peaceful for a while."
He was quite majestic, and everyone quickly began to act, each doing their own job.
After returning to the town, everyone received their deserved rewards and went home in a joyful atmosphere.
And Locke soon arrived at the scattered towns outside the city.
There were cultivated fields on the roadside, with farmers working diligently in the fields in groups of three or four. The air was filled with the stench of some animal manure.
Many people greeted Locke warmly when they saw him.
He was holding a long strip of fat in his hand, a large piece.
While he was responding to the greeting, he was also looking around until he saw the pretty girl standing at the entrance of the village.
Although she was not that pretty, girlhood was synonymous with beauty, not to mention her figure which was beginning to show its size. This was enough to make the young boy, who was just beginning to fall in love, have some inexplicable feelings.
However, today was a little different from usual. There were two people standing next to the girl, a man and a woman.
They were obviously not from this village. The men looked clear-headed and handsome, and their luxurious clothes matched their temperament perfectly.
The woman next to him folded her hands in front of her abdomen, with a smile on her face. She didn't say a word. She looked delicate and gentle. She just watched the man and the girl talk.
The man seemed to be very talkative, and the smile on the girl's face never disappeared.
However, he could inexplicably feel a kind of throbbing from the man, and he didn't know where it came from.
Then, his eyes couldn't help but stop on the woman next to the man. He had never seen such a beautiful woman.
The woman seemed to notice his gaze and raised her head slightly.
Only then did he come to his senses and realize that he had lost his composure. He immediately lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Locke, you're back." The girl's crisp call made him raise his head again.
The unique fragrance of the girl filled his nose, and Locke smiled and nodded.
The girl smiled with her bright eyes and said, "These two are from Persia City. They came to the village specially to collect folk songs. They are willing to pay a good rent to rent the house left by your parents."
"Oh?" Locke was a little surprised and looked at the two of them.
One of the men laughed heartily and said, "Ms. Noah is a shrewd businessman. Even in the town, you can rent a nice house at this price."
"But the scenery in town isn't as good as here." Noah smiled slyly.
Locke didn't know how to answer and could only laugh.
"Hey, is this your reward today?" Noah then noticed the fat meat in Locke's hand.
"Yeah." Locke nodded.
"That's great. Let my mother stew it to welcome guests coming from afar." Noah took it naturally.
The four of them walked together, and it was mainly Noah who chattered with Locke, while Locke just nodded in agreement from time to time.
"Is it him? He looks stupid." Li Yu looked at Locke. Although he was asking, he was basically sure that the other party was the owner of the Thunder Battle Armor helmet.
The feedback from the Thunder Armor has already made this clear.
He glanced around from time to time. Having been accustomed to the grandeur of the interstellar space, he now found it quite a unique experience to appreciate the rather primitive scenery of the surface civilization.
Even advanced interstellar civilizations have gone through such a period. The spark of civilization was very weak at first, and it continued to grow under the care of generations.
Fighting in the interstellar wars every day, all he saw were warships and armor. He hadn't seen this kind of primitive civilization for a long time.
The parliament generally does not vigorously promote technology, and only some more powerful gods are involved in it.
They are mainly good at a series of technical applications centered on faith.
"He should have been targeted by the God of War's men, but I don't know where they are hiding."
The surrounding environment also made her feel relaxed. While speaking, she couldn't help but glance at Li Yu.
If possible, it would be nice to live in seclusion in a place like this.
However, this thought only flashed through my mind.
She had been in the parliament for a long time and understood more clearly that the seemingly peaceful scene before her was just specially constructed by the gods.
Including some of the dangers we face on this planet, they are all designed.
The purpose is to continuously harvest the power of faith and create more powerful cannon fodder and tools.
The two were soon taken to Locke's parents' residence. He was an orphan and his parents only left him this small house. He was adopted by his neighbor Noya's mother Fina since he was a child.
After throwing out a few gold coins, Li Yu and his companion temporarily became the masters of this place.
After dinner, everyone in the village knew that two nobles had come to stay here. Although they were curious, they did not dare to pry too much.
But Locke did not sleep, but went to the back mountain alone, saying that he wanted to exercise.
"Tsk, this is too obvious..." Li Yu just chuckled twice.
"When do we take action? The God of War should have discovered that the God of Fury has been killed." Modo asked.
"No rush, let's observe first." Li Yu shook his head. Since the God of War knew that the God of Fury had been killed , he still did not take Locke away when they were rushing over. There was obviously something wrong.
…
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Locke came to a fixed place, which was surrounded by forests, with only an open space in the center.
In the open space, there stood a figure in a black robe, holding a sword, as if waiting for Locke.
"You are late today..." His voice was cold and aggressive.
"I'm sorry, teacher..." Locke explained hurriedly, "Two nobles came from the city today, so I'm a little late."
"Huh?" The man in black robe was a little surprised. His divine power instantly emanated and he found the two so-called nobles.
There was nothing special about it, which made him feel relieved.
But this unexpected situation still slightly stimulated him and he decided to speed up the plan again.
Although accidents might occur, he didn't know when the changes that the God of War mentioned would happen.
“Well, today I will teach you a new magical skill…” Locke’s face suddenly showed excitement when he heard this.
This mysterious man was rescued by him not long ago. He was seriously injured. Thanks to him, he was not killed by a passing wild beast.
It is precisely because of this that this mysterious talent is willing to guide him and make him stronger, and he is very grateful to him.
He quickly got into the state and began to learn new skills.
However, before long, a faint roar was heard at the foot of the mountain, and the ground was shaking slightly.
This obvious change instantly attracted Locke's attention.
When he saw the black aura rising into the sky, his young face changed instantly.
"What's going on? How could the demonic aura suddenly appear in the village?" He looked panicked.
The black-robed man on the side said directly: "Follow me!"
He ran very fast towards the foot of the mountain and disappeared in a few flashes. Seeing this, Locke hurriedly followed him.
…
"Monsters attack! Monsters attack!"
There were constant cries and shouts in the village, and women fled in panic, holding their children.
The strong men picked up the tools used to plow the fields during the day and stood in front with gritted teeth.
However, the roaring monsters broke through their defenses in an instant. Each monster was as big as a house.
There were thousands of these monsters, surrounding the entire village, leaving no way to escape.
The survivors were gradually driven to the center of the village. Their faces were filled with fear and panic, and they were trembling. Li Yu, Mo Duo, and Noah's mother and daughter were among them.
"A sudden monster attack? What a coincidence?" Mo Duo frowned slightly, as if he wanted to take action.
"Wait, I seem to have guessed what's going on. Interesting." Li Yu stopped Mo Duo with a slight smile on his face.
Although the two were talking, in the eyes of others, they also looked extremely terrified.
"Wow……"
A child who looked only two or three years old was lying on the ground crying. A monster slowly walked towards them, and the footprints it left on the ground were bigger than the child's body.
Many villagers glared angrily, as if an unbearable tragedy would happen in the next second.
However, at this moment, a silver-white sword light fell from the sky and directly split the monster into two halves.
A black-robed figure descended from the ground and picked up the child in his arms.
Hope suddenly appeared in the eyes of many villagers.
However, a beam of green light shot from a distance and pierced his chest directly, leaving a charred wound. He staggered and half-knelt on the ground, saying in astonishment: "Demon Sacrifice!"
Many monsters gathered around a short, skinny old man who was walking towards them. He was holding a green magic wand and looked eerie and scary.
"Come on!" The man in black robe threw the child in a certain direction. Locke's figure flashed and he caught the child accurately, rolling to the ground.
The man in black robe has already rushed towards the so-called demon sacrifice.
Unfortunately, a huge green hand fell from the sky and pinned him to the ground, making it difficult for him to break free.
"Teacher!" Locke looked anxious.
But the demon priest turned his gaze to Locke and smiled grimly: "Finally found you, kid."
Locke was startled and retreated silently, but the monsters on all sides had blocked his retreat.
"Hand over the things, otherwise everyone here will die!" Mo Ji's cold voice made everyone shiver.
"Ha, it's true..." Li Yu couldn't help but laugh, and then said, "It's better to come at the right time than to come early. Maybe I can get it for free this time."
Mo Duo seemed to understand something and looked at the man in black robe on the ground.
It is really surprising that a god who is powerful enough to blow up the planet can just lie on the ground so easily.
"What is that?" Locke gritted his teeth.
"Stop pretending, kid. I know. I know everything..." Mo Ji sneered and pulled a man out from the survivors.
"Chado! Chado! Locke... Considering that your uncle Chado is always nice to you, just hand it over to me."
A woman said hurriedly, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Locke's face turned pale, and when he was about to speak, the demon priest had already taken action. With a slight force, the man let out a tragic wail, and his body was twisted beyond recognition.
"Chaduo, Chaduo!" The woman wailed and then fainted.
The others looked horrified, and instantly realized that if Locke didn't hand over what the other party wanted, they would most likely be the next one to be targeted.
So...
"Locke, just give him what he wants..."
"Please, save us!"
“…”
The villagers' pleading continued, and Locke kept stumbling back, his lips trembling.
But the demon priest had no intention of stopping. He pulled out another person from the survivors and crushed him to death before speaking: "Are you sure you want to watch the entire village die in front of you?"
Locke's pupils contracted. The villagers, who were usually kind, now had pleading faces and some even knelt on the ground to beg him.
He didn't know how to face the scene before him.
"You seem to call him teacher..." Mo Ji picked up the man in black robe from the ground, and an invisible force directly tore off one of his arms.
However, the man in black robe did not make any sound, clenched his teeth, and did not ask Locke to hand over anything.
However, it was this attitude that made Locke even more tormented.
"You're quite resilient..." Mo Ji was interested and tore off the other arm of the man in black robe. The bones and tendons were connected with blood, and just one look at it made people feel sad.
The man in black robe finally couldn't bear it anymore and let out a terrible howl.
“Stop, stop it!”
Locke finally spoke with difficulty, his whole body trembling and he could hardly stand.
