"Are you really sure that the God of the Full Moon is not a figment of the villagers' imagination?" Earl Weir, wearing a full set of festival clothes exchanged from the villagers, twisted his body uncomfortably and was a little dissatisfied.
He said: "If it's just a group of magic wolves, we don't seem to need to make such a big battle, right? If word gets out in the future, won't we make people laugh to death?"
"Just wait a little longer. Anyway, we are about to send the sacrifices into the forest." Link raised his head and looked at the moonlight and said, "You will know what is going on after a while. Don't worry, be careful and you won't make a big mistake."
."
The moon is already high, and the entire sacrificial ceremony is coming to an end. The villagers are lying on the ground devoutly, completing their final prayers. As long as they wait for this round of sacrificial rituals to be completed, several villagers will
Warriors, carry the girl as a sacrifice into the woods and offer it to that god of the full moon. The whole ceremony will be completed.
Link and Earl Weir are now playing the role of carrying the sacrifice into the woods at the end, so they are standing on both sides of the altar. There is no need to kneel down with the villagers, otherwise Earl Weir would have died long ago.
Done, this boy with overwhelming confidence, after being promoted, now always feels that he can deal with anyone. Even if there is such a God of the Full Moon, I'm afraid he won't take it seriously. What's more, besides him, Link and the others are also
I'm a bit suspicious that the God of the Full Moon probably doesn't exist, but was just imagined by the villagers out of fear of the demon wolf.
Just now, Mr. and Mrs. Klinde had a long story, telling them all their limited knowledge about the God of the Full Moon, but after all, in their memories, the villagers in this village have never had this experience in so many years.
Disobeying the instructions of their ancestors, they actually hold this big sacrifice every year and send a woman to the woods. Therefore, they have no chance to experience the punishment of the God of the Full Moon. They treat
The only impression of the God of the Full Moon is the group of demonic wolves that he encounters every time he goes into the forest to deliver the sacrifices after the big sacrifice.
Moreover, under their questioning, the Klinde couple hesitantly said that they had never found the bones of the girls who were sent to the woods, and it seemed that some villagers had vaguely discovered them while hunting in the mountains.
I saw a girl who was sent into the forest a certain year ago. Not only did she not die, she was also riding a magic wolf chasing prey in the mountain forest. The villagers also have their own explanation for this, that is, those who were dedicated to the God of the Full Moon.
None of the girls died, but became servants of the God of the Full Moon, enjoying happiness that could not be enjoyed on the mainland.
But regarding this point, Earl Weir and the guards felt that this was all the villagers' self-comfort. It was very possible that there was no such thing as the God of the Full Moon. These villagers were just like this because of their own superstition and ignorance.
Year after year, he personally delivered his own flesh and bones into the mouths of the demon wolves, which also made Count Weir, who was full of sense of justice, feel very unforgivable towards the villagers of this village. If the little princess and Link hadn't already talked about each other before,
The Klinders have made a promise, and I'm afraid this boy Will will never care about this kind of thing again.
"Woo...ah..." Under the leadership of Uncle Klind, who was presiding over the sacrifice, the voices of the villagers singing that kind of ancient song that people couldn't understand became louder and louder, and the blazing flames,
There are also increasingly loud kowtows and kneels, which indicate that the sacrifice has entered the final stage.
"Be serious!" Link spotted the gap where all the villagers were leaning down. Xiang Duan was sitting in the middle of the altar. He should have been pretending to be unconscious, but now he took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention.
The little princess winked at Link and said softly: "It's the last minute, and I'm not afraid of being seen out, so don't mess up the matter."
The little princess ignored Link's warning at all, wrinkled her pretty nose and stuck out her tongue at him in protest. Link had no choice but to shake his head helplessly.
It can be said that under such a situation, they are still willing to help the Clinders and the other villagers to deal with the God of the Full Moon and those demon wolves. This is already considered to be benevolent enough, and there is no need to get involved in this.
The little princess came to replace Uncle Clinder's daughter and serve as a sacrifice.
But neither Link nor Will could really control this little princess. After they made the whole plan, this little girl kept making noisy threats to participate in this fun activity, which made everyone confused.
There is nothing we can do about it, so this is what happened now.
Of course, this is also because after weighing it up, Link feels that with their strength, no matter what kind of enemy they encounter, there is absolutely no problem in protecting the safety of at least a little princess. This is only for this little girl.
Somehow, in front of the Clinders just now, this little girl's performance can really make people feel at ease, knowing that she will not cause trouble to others at a critical moment.
However, Earl Weir is not as handsome as Link. After all, the little girl in front of him is also the princess of the Bavaria Empire and the person he is protecting on this mission. Although Earl Weir is also full of confidence now,
Seeing the little princess sitting on the altar like this as a bait, I still feel like something is wrong all over.
"Why hasn't it been finished yet?" Weir looked at the villagers who slowly filed up to salute in front of the altar, and then retreated one after another. He frowned and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Are they bothered? This is not enough.
How long will it take?!"
"I said you just..." Link smiled and was about to turn his head when suddenly, a strange wave appeared in his unusually sensitive sense.
"Be on guard!" Link shouted, holding the knight's sword in his hand. His eyes were like lightning, scanning every corner of the nearby jungle in the blink of an eye.
Earl Weir reacted the fastest. Almost as soon as Link's cry ended, he had already taken a stance and prepared for all battles. The guards who had been lying nearby also rose up.
He gripped the weapon tightly, but there was nothing unusual around him. The moonlight was quiet, as if nothing had happened.
"ah!"
"Oh my God!"
"Gone! Gone!"
"The God of the Full Moon has arrived!"
At this time, the villagers who were prostrate on the ground just raised their heads, but they were pointing in the direction of the altar with two halberd fingers, showing an inexplicable expression of horror, talking loudly and shouting.
"Damn it, I've fallen into a trap!" Link felt cold and looked back. Sure enough, there was nothing on the altar. The little princess who had been sitting there had gone somewhere.
"What's going on?" Count Weir also discovered this situation at this time. He couldn't help but look panicked. He grabbed Link's hand in complete confusion and cried out: "What should I do?! What should I do?
?!"
"Don't make any noise!" Link shouted to stop Earl Weir's movements. At this most nervous moment, he closed his eyes and raised his keen intuition to its peak state.
It is impossible for another Mage Tower mentor-level figure who controls the rules of space to appear on this continent, so no matter what tricks the other party does that he cannot understand, in such a short time, the little princess must still be nearby.
For Link now, it is many times more convenient and sharp to capture the changes in everything around him through the fluctuations of the basic elements in the surrounding world than using his ears and eyes. Moreover, after getting along with the little princess these days,
He has long been familiar with the special fluctuations caused by the little princess. As long as the little princess is still nearby, he will definitely be able to detect it.
Sure enough, in an instant, he clearly felt the strange fluctuation that was quickly going away. Link suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "Uncle Clinde, stay here with these villagers, and you are not allowed to leave.
The guards are on full alert to protect the villagers, Earl Weir, we are chasing him!"
"Yes!" The guards quickly stood where they should be, and responded with a bang.
Although Earl Weir still hadn't recovered, he still subconsciously followed Link, jumped up, and flew towards the jungle under the moonlight.
"Where is it?" Earl Weir was already gliding low in the air above the ground, with a faint golden light glowing all over his body. It was obvious that he had increased his speed to the extreme, but it was still only enough for him to barely follow.
Behind Link, Earl Weir had no time to take care of this. He used his eyesight and tried hard to look as far as he could see, but within his field of vision, there was still
He could only see the silent jungle under the moonlight, as well as some birds and animals that were startled by the two of them running along the way, but there was no sign of any enemies or the little princess. Therefore, although he saw Link looking attentive now,
He looked very ambitious, but he still couldn't help but ask a few questions: "Where is it?! What is this place?! Is the little princess really being kidnapped and going this way?!"
"Follow, don't talk too much." Link frowned and stared straight ahead with all his concentration. He only had time to say to Count Weir: "They are underground!"
"Underground?!" Earl Weir was startled, his fighting spirit stagnated for a moment, and he sank down. He was immediately pulled down a distance by Link. He quickly used his fighting spirit, floated up again, and chased after Link.
, although he did not dare to ask any more questions, his eyes were fixed on the ground all the way, and he almost hit the big tree in the forest several times.
It is a good explanation to say that the little princess suddenly disappeared from the altar under their guard because a tunnel was secretly dug under the altar, but Earl Weir really couldn't see anything on the ground.
It was an unusual place, not to mention that with the current speed of him and Link, they had already covered a long distance in just a short period of time. To dig a tunnel directly from under the altar of the small village to this place was simply a task.
Incredibly large project.
What's more, what makes Count Weir feel strange is that when Link ran all the way into the woods, in this dense forest at night, he was just like an old horse who knows the way. He didn't hesitate at all when slowing down or slowing down when advancing or retreating.
Knowing that where they were walking now, there was almost no path that could be barely discernible that anyone had walked on. It was obviously a place that even the villagers and hunters had hardly visited. How could Link be so familiar with this place?
The direction of the journey was really hard to figure out for Count Vere.
If it weren't for the confident look on Link's face and the fact that his attitude towards Link had changed a lot, I'm afraid Earl Weir wouldn't have been so stupid and ran away risking his life with this kid.
"Ouch!" Earl Weir was thinking about something in his mind, and just subconsciously followed Link forward, but he didn't pay attention to Link's sudden pause. He lost control of his momentum and bumped into Link's body.
, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed that Link's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp and he stared straight ahead. Weir also immediately understood and opened his posture.
"Come out!" Lin Keping raised his knight's sword and shouted loudly toward Earl Weir, who still couldn't see anything strange.
There was a slight rustling sound, not just in front of them, but in all directions at the same time. Countless green eyes suddenly lit up at the same time in the woods.
Earl Weir also drew out his knight's sword, walked to Link's side, and said with a forced smile: "It seems that we bumped into someone's lair this time. Fortunately, it's just a group of demon wolves!"
Although with the strength of his Golden Knight, it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with such a group of demon wolves alone, but in the middle of the night, in such an environment, facing countless bloodthirsty beasts
The look in his eyes still made Count Weir, who had basically never experienced any real battles, feel a little flustered.
"It's just a magic wolf." Link frowned and whispered to Count Weir: "Be careful for a while. I always think they seem to have a very strange power hidden in them."
"Let Carol go," Link looked ahead and said in a cold tone to the group of demon wolves, "Or, kill you!"
He could sense that the little princess's aura was still nearby, right in the middle of the group of demonic wolves. It seemed that these demonic wolves were what the villagers called the messengers sent by the God of the Full Moon to receive sacrifices. It was just that
I don’t know that this time, instead of waiting for the villagers to bring in the sacrifice, they used some weird method to kidnap the little princess directly from the altar and transport it from underground.
Although he and Earl Weir were misled by the news from the villagers and thought that the God of the Full Moon would wait until the sacrifices were sent into the woods before taking action, so they relaxed their vigilance a little, but they were only able to escape from under their guard.
By quietly taking the little princess away, and using such a weird method, Link could know that this was definitely not something that the low-level magic wolves on the mainland could do.
I'm afraid there really is such a thing as the God of the Full Moon that the villagers say.
He is different from Weir. He had relied on his sharp intuition to lock on the aura of the little princess along the way, and was able to follow him to this place. With his induction of the natural elements between heaven and earth, he could easily
It is clear that the person who came here with the little princess did not know what he was doing, not because there was a tunnel under the ground, but because he was directly under the ground, walking directly through the soil. Link never heard of it.
I have said that there is no monster on the continent that can possess such strange skills.
Relating to the feeling of being spied on but not noticing anything strange on the cliff at the edge of the forest in the foggy night, Link has been able to determine that this unknown creature should be the god of the full moon in the villagers' mouth. I am afraid that as early as
He had already targeted his group before entering the small village, and that was why he was able to seize the opportunity so accurately and snatch people away under his nose.
Tracking the guy who kidnapped the little princess all the way here, Link didn't feel that he had consumed much energy, but he had to keep a tight lock on the little princess's aura, and he had to pick out the ones he could cross on a completely unfamiliar mountain road.
The shortest journey has taken a lot of mental effort, and not only have they not yet figured out what the enemy is, the little princess is still in their hands, so Link has to deal with these low-level demon wolves.
He still showed restraint, after all, in his opinion, the real enemies were not these things.
"Woo!" Those demonic wolves actually seemed to understand human words. They made a low commotion in response. Instead of retreating, they moved closer to the direction where Link and the others were standing.
"I said, what do we have to say to these low-level things?" Just because he could bear it didn't mean that Count Vere could bear it. As long as he thought that the little princess was still in the hands of the enemy, Vere couldn't stand still for a moment, and
Those low-level demonic wolves had no choice but to look at them with obvious aggression, which also made Count Weir feel very unhappy. He shouted to Link: "Just go over and kill them!"
"Ouch!"
Before Link could even answer Count Weir's question, the demon wolves seemed to be angered by Count Weir's words, and they all raised their heads to the sky and let out a howl.
In the midst of this howl, the nearest white magic wolf jumped out and rushed towards Count Weir, as fast as lightning in the dark night.
"Drink!" Weir was already prepared under Link's repeated reminders. Although he was surprised by the speed of this demon wolf, his strength as a golden knight was not fake after all.
Suddenly, a shield made of golden fighting spirit covered his whole body, and he raised the knight's sword with a golden luster in his hand without hesitation, and went straight towards the person who was rushing towards him.
The demon wolf slashed hard on the head.
The movements of both parties were reaching their extreme, and in just that moment, the demonic wolf and Earl Weir had collided with each other.
"careful!"
"Jerosie, no!"
Link let out a shout and quickly knocked Earl Weir away. At the same time, he still had to cast a surprised look towards the jungle.
Because with his eyesight, he clearly saw another cry, which came from the mouth of a demon wolf standing at the edge of the jungle.
